Chapter 1555: Chapter 1555: Going Home

Qin Yi bid farewell to Kong Liang!

Kong Liang originally wanted to invite Qin Yi and his companions to Mo City as guests. He truly admired Qin Yi and his companions.

Although Qin Yi’s group only had four people, they were a force to be reckoned with.

Qin Yi refused. They still had to hurry on their journey.

"City Lord Kong, farewell!"

Qin Yi and the others left without the slightest pause.

Kong Liang’s daughter stood on the back of a Golden Winged Roc, looking at the departing figures of Qin Yi and his companions, and mustered the courage to shout:

"I’m sorry, I was wrong!"

This apology was heartfelt.

Qin Yi and his companions, with their extraordinary hearing, of course heard it, but they simply smiled faintly.

To them, Kong Liang’s daughter was just a passerby in their lives.

However, Qin Yi had a significant impact on Kong Liang’s daughter, this girl whose name he didn’t even know.

Kong Liang was also very pleased. His precious daughter, once unruly, was finally beginning to change.

He had only this one daughter and treasured her dearly, hoping she would succeed him in the future.

...

...

A month later, Qin Yi and his companions finally arrived at Xuanhuang Domain.

When stepping onto the land of Xuanhuang Domain, Yun Mengyao’s heart inexplicably grew uneasy.

It wasn’t homesickness, but rather she knew that from the moment she set foot on Xuanhuang Domain’s land, her time with Qin Yi was entering its final stages.

"This Xuanhuang Domain is quite prosperous."

Qin Yi had only walked for a short while in the Xuanhuang Domain when he encountered a city.

Mind you, the Four Seas and Eight Desolates cover a vast area. In Moon Desolate Domain, cities were separated by tens of thousands of miles.

But shortly after stepping into Xuanhuang Domain, they saw a city.

"Come on, I’ll treat everyone to a meal."

This whole journey of traveling day and night left their stomachs grumbling.

They found a restaurant.

Qin Yi ordered everything on the menu.

When it came to himself and those around him, Qin Yi spared no expense.

"Miss Yun, how far is it to your Feather Clan from here?"

Yun Mengyao thought for a moment, "Our Feather Clan is in Peng City. At our pace, it’ll take about another week to arrive."

"There should be a ruler of Xuanhuang Domain, right?"

Yun Mengyao replied, "Xuanhuang Domain has only one royal family, the Xuantian Royal Family. All cities in Xuanhuang Domain belong to the Xuantian Royal Family’s domain."

Qin Yi was taken aback and said, "To control the entire Xuanhuang Domain shows that the Xuantian Royal Family’s influence is very strong indeed."

"By the way, you just mentioned the Feather Clan in Peng City, does this mean that Peng City is controlled by the Golden Winged Roc Clan?"

Yun Mengyao nodded slightly, saying:

"The Golden Winged Roc Clan is the City Lord’s Mansion of Peng City."

"So this means you’ll become the City Lord’s wife in the future, congratulations!"

Yun Mengyao’s face remained expressionless as she looked at Qin Yi indifferently, causing Qin Yi to feel a chill down his spine.

"What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Yun Mengyao frowned, responding coldly, "You’re about to be rid of me; are you that happy?"

"I..."

Qin Yi was about to say yes, but was he really happy?

Yun Mengyao had accompanied him for years; they had laughed, caused trouble, and faced life and death together, closer than family.

With the Blood Flood Dragon leaving him, and Yun Mengyao about to leave too.

People around him were leaving one by one, and Qin Yi felt genuinely distressed.

But everyone has their own life path, no one can stay with you forever, nor does he have the right to interfere with someone’s life choices.

Qin Yi collected his low spirits and said with a smile:

"Returning home has always been something you longed for, right? Now that you’re finally back, I’m happy for you."

"You’re the Saintess of the Feather Clan, and your future husband is the Saint Heir of the Golden Winged Roc Clan. As a friend, seeing you doing well, I have no reason not to be happy."

Yun Mengyao said nothing. Before, she was eager to return home.

But now, she suddenly felt a bit afraid to go home.

Because returning home meant she would lose all her freedom and bear the responsibility for the Feather Clan’s prosperity or decline.

She glared at Qin Yi. It was his fault for taking her across the lands, making her heart stray.

Qin Yi was puzzled by her glare.

After the meal, Qin Yi requested four rooms, planning to rest one night before continuing their journey.

They had traveled long distances recently, and everyone was a bit weary.

...

The next day, the four of them continued their journey.

Seven days later, they finally saw Peng City.

Throughout the journey, Qin Yi had witnessed the prosperity of Xuanhuang Domain.

In most of the Desolate Domains, cities were thousands to tens of thousands of miles apart.

But in Xuanhuang Domain, there was a city every few hundred miles.

It seemed this Xuantian Royal Family was indeed capable.

Yun Mengyao looked at the two characters of Peng City with a slightly excited yet apprehensive expression.

After years apart, returning felt as if Peng City was unfamiliar.

"Let’s go in!"

Qin Yi said to her.

Yun Mengyao took a deep sigh and walked forward.

The four entered Peng City.

The ground was paved with smooth bluestone slabs, and the roads were wide. Shops lined both sides, teeming with people on the bustling streets.

Had it not been for the ancient architecture, Qin Yi might have thought he was back on Earth.

"Look, those shops are all run by our Feather Clan; they seem to be doing well."

"And over there, those stores are ours too."

After all, she was home.

Yun Mengyao introduced them with pride in her eyes.

"Peng City isn’t large; among all the cities, it’s considered small, but economically, it’s no less than the larger cities."

"Let me tell you, Peng City might be small, but it has a population of tens of millions."

Qin Yi curiously asked, "Does Peng City have only your Feather Clan and the Golden Winged Roc Clan as factions?"

"And there is the Liang Family in the west of the city. The Liang Family isn’t a good lot. Whatever business our Feather Clan does, they mimic it and constantly compete with us."

"However, we have good relations with the Golden Winged Roc Clan, and in several contests, the Liang Family has suffered losses."

Qin Yi nodded slightly, saying, "A tripod with three legs is the most stable balance."

Yun Mengyao said, "Let’s go, our Feather Clan is in the South City."

Soon, Qin Yi saw a massive estate, resembling a Suzhou-style garden, sprawling over a large area.

Above the main gate, the two gilded characters for Feather Clan shone brightly.

"Who goes there? This is the Feather Clan; no idlers are allowed near."

At the gate, four guards stood proudly, looking down from the stone steps at Qin Yi’s group.

Qin Yi glanced at Yun Mengyao, "Do your Feather Clan disciples not recognize their Saintess?"

"I’ve been away for so many years; it’s normal for there to be new faces. There’s nothing odd about them not recognizing me."

Yin Qianqian chuckled and said, "Quickly report to your Clan Leader, tell him his precious daughter, the Saintess of your Feather Clan, has returned."

The four guards were stunned.

Then one of them frowned and said, "How dare you! Pretending to be our Feather Clan’s Saintess, you’ve got some nerve."
