Lan i finished speaking in one breath and looked apologetically at Dugu Qianye, saying, "That’s why I was so anxious that day and ended up injuring you."
"I once heard my mother say that we must never reveal our aura," Qingluan said.
After listening, Dugu Qianye took a mont to digest the information given by Lan i, and then asked, "I know there are many dinsions in this world. What do you an by higher and lower dinsions?"
"There are many lower dinsions; they are relatively parallel, with similar resources and strength. Higher dinsions are fewer in number, but their resources and strength are much more significant," Lan i explained.
Dugu Qianye looked at Xiaohuo and said firmly, "We will definitely return to settle the scores of the past and recover what belongs to you."
Xiaohuo also nodded firmly in agreent.
"Have you heard of the surnas Dugu and Baili in your dinsion?" Dugu Qianye asked.
If her father wasn’t likely from the Xuanyue Continent, then it was possible he ca from another dinsion. Baili Ruyan might have also traveled to other dinsions.
"I have always been with my clan; I don’t know much about the humans outside," Lan i said, sowhat apologetically.
"It’s okay," Dugu Qianye said, understandingly, "I just wanted to know about Xiaohuo’s origins, which we have now clarified, so you can leave."
Lan i looked at Xiaohuo and said, "I, I would like to follow you. I’ve been searching for the Emperor for thousands of years, and since the Emperor has already contracted with you, as the Blue Phoenix guard, I must also follow you. My strength here is considered top-notch, and I can protect you."
Dugu Qianye was indifferent; with Lan i, their strength would be even greater. She looked at Xiaohuo; it was she who was following Xiaohuo, so it had to be Xiaohuo’s decision.
Xiaohuo turned its face to one side. Dugu Qianye said, amused, "All this ca from a misunderstanding. I’m the one involved, and I’ve already forgiven you. Are you trying to undermine ? Alright, no need to be angry anymore."
It took Dugu Qianye so coaxing, but Xiaohuo finally agreed to speak, "Hmph, if it wasn’t for my sister pleading with you, I wouldn’t want you following us. Wait until my sister’s injuries are healed, and then you can contract with her."
Lan i looked at Dugu Qianye and said, "I am now a Super Divine Beast, and only an Emperor Beast Tar can contract with ."
"The master is an Emperor Beast Tar!" Xiaoyin chid in from the side.
Lan i looked at the Divine Beasts in the room, realizing this was not sothing an ordinary person could achieve. And seeing how Dugu Qianye interacted with the Phantom Beasts, she believed she was not soone who treated her own Phantom Beasts as re tools. Soon, she also hit it off with them.
Lying in bed and chatting with the beasts, Dugu Qianye truly hated the feeling of being unable to move. Seeing the joyful atmosphere in the room and thinking of Dandan, who was still working on healing her, and another person, Dudu, she couldn’t help saying, "It would be great if Dandan and Dudu could co out."
In the past, she was focused on letting Dandan heal and never really communicated properly with Dandan. She called out to Dandan with her mind.
"What’s up?" Dandan asked as he woke up.
Before Dugu Qianye could say anything, Xiaohuo, lying on Dugu Qianye’s belly, asked, "Brother Dandan, can you co out and play with us?"
Dandan was annoyed at being woken up by Dugu Qianye, but upon hearing Xiaohuo’s words and feeling the warm atmosphere outside, his tone softened and said, "Once I transform, I can temporarily separate from the Heavenly Bead."
"Ah? When can you transform then?" Xiaohuo pouted.
"When her Phantom Power level is high enough, I’ll naturally transform. It’s the sa for the Refining Demon Pot," Dandan said. He didn’t want to put too much pressure on Dugu Qianye, which wouldn’t be good for her growth. Everyone understood, so they didn’t discuss this topic further.
"By the way, Xiaohuo, what kind of flas can you emit now?" Dugu Qianye asked, rembering the Wanyuan Fire Seed that Xiaohuo had refined.
At this, Xiaohuo got excited all of a sudden, gesticulating wildly, "Sister, I can now produce a lot of different flas, look."
Xiaohuo spat out several types of flas from his mouth, having a blast. It was a while before he rembered sothing and said to Dugu Qianye, "Sister, you can use my flas too!"
"?" Dugu Qianye asked, puzzled.
"Because we have a life-bound contract, of course you can use my flas. Before, I thought my life-bound flas were useless, so I didn’t tell you. Now that I’ve refined the Wanyuan Fire Seed, it’s as if you’ve refined it too," Xiaohuo explained.
"Shucks, does that an I can produce whatever flas I want?" Dugu Qianye asked.
"This probably has sothing to do with the Phantom Power level," Xiaohuo said uncertainly, "You need a higher level to produce higher flas. After all, you’re human, and you’re not the sa as ."
Knowing that she could produce flas, Dugu Qianye was very excited. Although she couldn’t produce higher flas now, it did not dampen her spirits. As soon as her hand was able to move, she started playing with the flas at her fingertips.
A few days after Dugu Qianye woke up, the City Lord ca to visit her.
"City Lord," Dugu Qianye tried to get up from the bed but was stopped by a look from Xiaohuo, so she simply nodded her head to the City Lord as a gesture.
"You lie down. The Pharmacist has told that you can’t move until your bones have fully healed," the City Lord waved his hand at Dugu Qianye and sat down on a chair.
"Hehe, actually I’m almost better. It’s just that Xiaohuo and the others insist that I should lie down," Dugu Qianye said.
"They care about you. I ca here for two reasons: one is to check on your injuries. These past few days, I’ve been busy dealing with the aftermath of the beast tide and didn’t have ti to visit you, only getting free today. Secondly, I ca to tell you that I’ve instructed those involved in repelling the beast tide not to talk about that day’s events. But where there are many people, there is much talk, and I can’t force them all to take oaths, so inevitably there will be those who spread the story. You need to be prepared ntally since so powers might act if they find out," the City Lord earnestly advised Dugu Qianye.
"The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. I understand this principle. Thank you for your concern, City Lord," Dugu Qianye sincerely thanked him.
"It’s already August 20th, and it takes more than ten days to travel from Feier City to the Imperial Capital. Even if you travel by the fastest horse, it would still take 10 days. Can you make it in ti for the admissions at the Imperial Capital Academy?" the City Lord asked.
"I’ll rest for a few more days. By that ti, Lan i can take there. With her speed, it should take less than two days," Dugu Qianye replied.
"Hehe, I forgot that you have a flying Phantom Beast, so I won’t worry. I have always liked you, so young yet so steady. Co and let know before you leave, and rember to visit in Feier City when you’re passing through, okay, brother?" the City Lord said with a laugh, "Rest well, then. I won’t disturb you any longer."
Dugu Qianye had Lan i see the City Lord out. She turned to Xiaohuo and said with a pleading face, "Xiaohuo, my injury is almost healed, and if I keep laying down, my muscles will atrophy. Please let get up."
