Chapter 387: Chapter 387: The Second Domain (3)_1
Seeing Dugu Qianye emerge, Hao Pengyou said, "If it weren’t for Zi Xiao being here, I’d have thought you two were up to something unspeakable in there!"
"Pah, pah, pah, Brother, what are you talking about! Mind your tongue, or I’ll smack you!" Dugu Qianye retorted, and then gathered the others back into the Refining Demon Pot. Leaving only Hao Pengyou and Zi Xiao behind, they changed their disguises and reverted to a trio.
Dugu Qianye still dressed as a man, but her appearance was no longer that of Baili Xie, instead, she had assumed a more delicate face. Hao Pengyou and Zi Xiao also changed their attire.
Since they couldn’t let Xiaohuo and the others out, Hao Pengyou called out Xiaowu, and the three of them rode on Xiaowu’s back, flying towards the Continent. By chance, they once again arrived at Songgu City.
As the trio walked the streets, they noticed Divine Temple’s people openly harassing beautiful women, resulting in them getting badly beaten. They entered a teahouse, planning to have some tea and casually pick up some news.
"Hey, have you heard? The Feng Family and the Mo Family have officially issued a challenge!" someone said while munching on dry fruits in front of him.
"Really?"
"Of course, it’s true! I just got back from the big cities. The news has spread like wildfire there!"
"Hurry up and tell us, what’s the deal?"
"The Feng Family branch in Wulai City was exterminated before, and the main Feng Family claimed it was orchestrated by the Mo Family, demanding a spokesperson to come forward, didn’t they? But the Mo Family has been silent. At the last Feng Family clan meeting, they made a decision to declare war on the Mo Family directly!"
"Isn’t this second-rate power declaring war on a first-rate power just seeking death?"
"Ha ha, that’s where you’re wrong. The Feng Family declaring war on the Mo Family had the backing of the Divine Temple behind them; otherwise, they would never have the guts or the strength."
"So, what was the Mo Family’s reaction to the Feng Family declaring war?"
"What else could they do? They accepted the challenge, of course! Now the two major powers have started suppressing each other in all aspects."
"The Mo Family must be holding a clan meeting soon, right?"
"Yes, in one month."
"Sigh, these are the lives of those people. We’d better stay here honestly and hope to stay clear of those troubles!"
Dugu Qianye and her companions quietly listened to their conversation. They hadn’t expected the Feng Family to truly declare war on the Mo Family using the past incident as a pretext, and even less that the Divine Temple would get involved!
Hao Pengyou finished the tea in his hand and looked at the other two, asking, "Shall we go to the Mo Family’s main house now?"
Dugu Qianye glanced at the bustling street outside, thought for a moment, and said, "We’ll go first, but we won’t show ourselves. We’ll see how the situation unfolds later."
"Okay."
After agreeing, the trio went to the Spiritual Master Association and used the Transmission Array to travel to Delan City, where the Mo Family’s main house was located.
Delan City is the largest city near the Beiwang River on the East Continent and is an important city between the East and West Continents, with a very large scale. As a fortress city, it naturally gathers various forces, but the biggest force here is still the Mo Family. The Mo Family was the earliest power to begin surviving here.
After Dugu Qianye, Zi Xiao, and Hao Pengyou arrived in Delan City, they found a hotel not far from the Mo Family to stay in.
In the room, Dugu Qianye and Zi Xiao lay on rocking chairs, while Hao Pengyou sat on the windowsill, looking at the scenery below, and said, "Delan City is quite lively, isn’t it?!"
"The Mo Family clan meeting may seem like an internal affair, but it involves all the branch families in their respective cities. Different rankings mean different benefits from the main house, which also brings different profits to their cities. Thus, this clan power meeting often affects the whole body when a single hair is moved," Dugu Qianye analyzed.
"So, in addition to people from the Mo Family’s branches, there are others who come to watch the excitement," said Hao Pengyou.
"When do you plan on having Grandpa and the others make their appearance, and how?" Zi Xiao asked.
Dugu Qianye gave Zi Xiao a glance — that was her grandpa, okay? Don’t talk as if he was his grandfather.
"I haven’t decided yet, I’ll discuss it with Grandpa and the others later."
Hao Pengyou jumped down from the windowsill and said, "Don’t they have a branch family ranking competition? Just have them participate as one of the branches. If they win, the condition is to get them listed in the family records. How about that?"
Upon hearing this suggestion, Dugu Qianye’s eyes lit up, and she said, "That sounds quite good, I’ll go and talk it over with Grandpa." Having said that, she flashed into the Refining Demon Pot.
Soon she came out and said, "Grandpa and the others also think it can work. However, the timing of their appearance has to be chosen carefully to achieve the desired effect."
"If they really plan to do this, then they have to prepare properly. Their strength has already improved, but their combat tactics also need some refinement," Zi Xiao said sensibly. After he spoke, he saw Dugu Qianye staring intently at him, giving him a chilling feeling, and he asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Dugu Qianye smiled and said, "I know you have a lot of ideas and also know where their shortcomings lie."
"So?" Zi Xiao asked.
"So, for the time ahead, you’ll be giving Grandpa and Uncle a special training session!" Dugu Qianye smiled with a cunning look.
Zi Xiao nearly fell from the rocking chair. Was she suggesting that he give them a devilish-style training? They were her elders, and if they held a grudge against him because of the special training, wouldn’t that add many obstacles to his pursuit of her? But seeing Dugu Qianye smiling smugly, as if daring him not to agree, he had no choice but to reluctantly consent.
Dugu Qianye took them to the Refining Demon Pot, gathered the Mo Family members, and said, "Because we have to participate in the Mo Family competition, and yet our strength can’t compare with other families, we’ve decided to give you a special training session before the contest. Xiao will serve as the coach for this training."
The gaze of the Mo Family members all fixed onto Zi Xiao at once, making him feel like he had a target on his back. Once upon a time, he had trained so many people and never felt like this before!
"Cough cough, in the coming time, I will develop a training plan for each of you based on your strengths and weaknesses," said Zi Xiao. Then he looked at Dugu Qianye and said, "You must participate too."
What?!
Dugu Qianye chuckled awkwardly and said, "I need to guide Mo Feng with his alchemy. He has just been promoted to an eighth-grade Alchemist and is still unstable. I want him to make an appearance during this event and come into everyone’s sight. The same goes for you, Grandpa, and the rest. In the future, you won’t have to hide in the Refining Demon Pot and can walk the streets openly."
When Dugu Qianye started speaking, she felt a bit guilty. She knew that if Zi Xiao gave her special training, he would definitely settle personal scores, so she had to hurriedly find Mo Feng as a shield. But as she continued, it also became her wish. Mo Zhenting and the others had already stayed in her Refining Demon Pot long enough!
