Chapter 1635: Chapter 1615: Departure
They, unable to resist, could only leave and hide, until the day their strength allowed them to stand here openly and return.
Three days later, the young Yang Feng returned, holding a pottery jar wrapped in a splendid red ribbon.
He wore mourning clothes, his eyes red, clearly sleep had escaped him these past days.
"Shiqi, could you give me that beautiful box?" Yang Feng asked Luo Qianqian, "I want to take him to see the world once more."
Luo Qianqian looked dazed, a beautiful box? What beautiful box? Did she take out any beautiful box?
After a long silence, she stared blankly at Yang Feng, pulling out her sports water bottle: "Could it be this..."
The transparent plastic water bottle had a pink design, filled with bright, colorful liquid inside.
She only used the bottle to mix drinks.
"Yes." Yang Feng nodded slightly.
Luo Qianqian hesitated as she looked at the pottery jar wrapped in red ribbon in front of her: "Do you want it to hold ashes?"
Yang Feng knew Luo Qianqian was aware of this since she followed them, so he nodded without hesitation.
Luo Qianqian was silent for a moment, really unwilling to do such a thing—using a water bottle for ashes? She feared being haunted by this senior brother in her dreams.
Even if it’s a new water bottle, it still has a plastic smell, doesn’t it? fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
But soon, her eyes brightened as she took out a cylindrical glass bottle, a blue frosted model, but the bottle had two transparent circular windows on both sides, revealing the wish-granting tree inside...
Indeed, it was a wishing bottle.
Luo Qianqian calmly placed it on the table: "Will this do?"
She truly didn’t have an urn, because who would want to do such a business anyway? It always felt unlucky.
Moreover, as far as she knew, nowadays few people practice cremation, most opting for coffins, this type of modern burial method is rare here.
Looking at the small jar on the table, Yang Feng held it in his hands and bowed to Luo Qianqian, his tone filled with sincerity: "Thank you." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"No need for thanks, you’re an elder." Luo Qianqian quickly moved aside.
Yet, due to Yang Feng’s gesture, the other seven people from Sky Inquiry Tower bowed simultaneously to her. She evaded one person only to receive the bows of seven.
"No need to say much, whenever you’re free, come to Nine Heavens Pavilion, mention my name Luo Shiqi, and everything from board to lodging is free." Luo Qianqian stiffly helped the seven stand.
God knows she didn’t want this gratitude at all...
"Certainly." Wang Mazi looked deeply at Luo Qianqian, then glanced around at the others in the courtyard, speaking firmly and slowly.
He had a premonition that they were leaving.
"If anything comes up, just find me." Wang Mazi spoke earnestly to Luo Qianqian after a brief silence.
"Relax, if I ever need to kill someone, I’ll definitely find you, you’re the expert after all." Luo Qianqian smiled and nodded.
"Then we won’t stay any longer, there are old matters that need discussing again. If there’s a chance in the future, we’ll definitely visit Nine Heavens Pavilion," Yang Feng too smiled, casually leaving a dagger on the table, glancing at Luo Qianqian: "For self-defense, until we meet again."
"Thank you..." Luo Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the not very valuable dagger, accepting it graciously, then took out some jerky and such for the group to take with them as she watched them leave, feeling rather mixed emotions.
"Xiao Baibai, why hasn’t your Baili returned yet?" Luo Qianqian glanced at the spiritual beasts lounging and resting together.
The Little White Snake happily coiled into a circle on the Snow Beast’s body.
They should be leaving soon, see her brother, and prepare for their journey.
"Shiqi, I’m not going back with you..." He Wenyu pursed her lip apprehensively, glancing at Luo Qianqian, pointing to Bai Yinshu beside her: "That old man said to follow him, he’d give me special treatment..."
Luo Qianqian was taken aback, instinctively looking over to Yan and Mo. Compared to that old man and Bai Yinshu, it was obvious these two were more reliable, so she instinctively sought their input. Both nodded subtly, Luo Qianqian finally breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly nodded.
After all, He Wenyu mattered greatly to him.
"Then you must protect her well, or I’ll kill you!" Luo Qianqian said bluntly, lifting the dagger threateningly and approaching Bai Yinshu.
Bai Yinshu nodded repeatedly with a wry smile, then glanced at Mo and Yan, "One of them will go with me, don’t worry."
"That’s good, then I’m reassured." Luo Qianqian immediately relaxed, smiling warmly.
Bai Yinshu smiled wryly, utterly helpless.
And on the following third day, the members of Ten Thousand Sect returned victorious.
Luo Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, without waiting for anyone, she had already left a letter and departed with her people.
Entrusting matters concerning the Eldest Princess to Bai Yinshu, who would be staying here for a while, she glanced at Mo following her with injuries, feeling puzzled: "What happened?"
"Practice fight, narrow victory." Mo gritted his teeth, glancing at Yan beside him with disdain, proudly following Luo Qianqian.
Yan rolled his eyes in silence, leaving with Bai Yinshu, He Wenyu, and Snow Beast.
Luo Qianqian and her team still had Old Man Haan along with them, truly somewhat burdensome, Luo Qianqian initially wanted to leave him at Forget Worries Tea House for business, but reconsidered and didn’t.
After all, Southern Li had many unresolved issues, if Snow Palace folks found out, they’d be utterly unfriendly to members of Nine Heavens Pavilion.
Affairs regarding the academy were beyond their understanding, everything seemed entangled, sparking unrest across major sects, leaving her quite worried for Nine Heavens Pavilion.
Seated on the Flying Chicken, she couldn’t help but sigh, actually it’s quite trendy too.
Returning to Forget Worries Tea House under Nine Heavens Pavilion, Luo Qianqian settled Old Man Haan here without any intention of bringing him to the sect.
Old Man Haan had no objections, bearing in mind it couldn’t change the fact he was a former Steward of Snow Palace.
Such arrangements provided him peace of mind.
Afterward, Luo Qianqian led the group back to the sect, sneakily taking Bai Yizhu, Huangfu Yanyao, and Mo with her, since Bai Yizhu and Huangfu Yanyao suffered serious injuries and needed those looked at.
Upon learning that Luo Qianqian had returned, Old Master Luo found himself at a loss in front of the small courtyard, whiskers blowing, eyes glaring, yet helpless.
The children have grown up, forging their own paths...
Decisions are beyond their control now, making youth all the more endearing.
After sending the two into the examination room, Luo Qianqian sneaked into the hospital room, unexpectedly finding no trace of Luo Shufan.
