Chapter 310 Taking Ah Yin with Me and Leaving
Seeing Dugu Yan's mood shift from hopeful to gloomy, Ye Qifeng felt a little guilty.
He didn't want to hurt her.
However, given the current situation, Ye Qifeng is unable to meet Dugu Yan's expectations.
After all, he couldn't stay in Tiandou City forever.
With the matter at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well settled, he had other things to do and would soon leave Heaven Dou City. Moreover, he would not set foot in Heaven Dou City again for a very long time.
This period of time may be five years, or it may take longer.
Even though Ye Qifeng reciprocated Dugu Yan's feelings, he still didn't have the time or energy to spend with her.
He couldn't just leave the girl waiting in vain, longing for him across thousands of miles.
In that case, it's better not to start this relationship.
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Qifeng still felt that it would be best to take this opportunity to dispel Dugu Yan's thoughts.
So he recounted to Dugu Yanming, in a tactful manner, what he had said to Huo Wu back in Blazing City.
Fortunately, perhaps it's because they haven't known each other for very long.
Unlike Huo Wu back then, Dugu Yan's feelings for Ye Qifeng were not particularly deep at this time, and she had not reached the point where she would marry no one but him and was unable to extricate herself from her feelings.
Back in Blazing City, Huo Wu spent at least a month with Ye Qifeng, and they were together almost every day. This gave her a deeper understanding of Ye Qifeng and a more profound affection for him, almost to the core.
In addition, Huo Wu's personality is even more straightforward and direct. Once she has made up her mind, she will forge ahead bravely, never admit defeat, and will not give up easily.
But Dugu Yan's personality was different.
Although equally proud, it is much more languid and reserved.
Moreover, she lived with her eccentric grandfather, Dugu Bo. Although she was of normal temperament, she was inevitably influenced by Dugu Bo.
She took this opportunity to express her feelings to Ye Qifeng.
Aside from the possibility of falling in love at first sight.
More so, it stemmed from Dugu Bo's instigation.
In the past few days, Dugu Bo has been constantly talking about Ye Qifeng, mentioning him frequently in Dugu Yan's ear, as if he already considers Ye Qifeng his grandson-in-law, and keeps urging her to boldly pursue him.
Dugu Bo's actions made Dugu Yan eager to try it as well.
Furthermore, after witnessing Ye Qifeng's power and prowess, Dugu Yan inevitably became attracted to him and gradually grew to like him even more.
So he had an idea.
However, Dugu Yan's feelings for Ye Qifeng at this moment were not as deep or as intense as Huo Wu's.
Therefore, after hearing Ye Qifeng's tactful refusal and explanation, Dugu Yan did not show any signs of being heartbroken or devastated.
But sadness and disappointment are still inevitable.
After an explanation.
Ye Qifeng did not immediately bring Dugu Yan back to the others. Instead, he spent some more time alone with her on the boulder platform, comforting her as he did so.
Until she felt much better.
They then returned together to the three of them: Gui Mei, Dugu Bo, and Rui Wen.
They saw Ye Qifeng returning with Dugu Yan.
Ghostly, Dugu Bo, and Raven quickly stood up, greeted each other, and exchanged simple greetings.
"Yanyan, how did it go? Did you win over the Holy Son?"
Dugu Bo pulled his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, to a short distance away and asked her in a low voice, not noticing for a moment the dejected expression on her face.
Upon hearing her grandfather's question, Dugu Yan shook her head and remained silent.
"Didn't it work?"
Seeing his granddaughter shake her head and remain silent, Dugu Bo immediately understood. Slightly disappointed, he thought for a moment but decided to ask further, so he did:
"What's going on?"
"The Holy Son said he already has someone he likes."
Dugu Yan pouted slightly, her face gloomy and defeated.
"You have someone you like? Who is it? Where is they?"
Dugu Bo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked a series of three questions.
"I don't know, the Holy Son didn't say."
Dugu Yan bit her lip.
"Well"
Dugu Boyu hesitated for a moment, wanting to ask more questions, but noticing the somewhat gloomy expression on his granddaughter's face, he immediately swallowed back the many questions he was about to ask.
I decided to first try to lift my granddaughter's spirits.
So, suppressing his surprise and disappointment, he changed his tone and said to his granddaughter:
"Hey, I thought it was something serious. Yan Yan, it's not like you've already missed your chance."
"Huh, what do you mean?"
Dugu Yan, who was looking somewhat dejected, raised her head slightly, her eyes brightening, and asked in confusion.
"The Holy Son only said that he already has someone he likes, but have you seen any girls with him? No."
Dugu Bo said to her meaningfully.
"A girl? He has one with him."
Dugu Yan said subconsciously.
"Who?"
"Isn't that Little Raven?"
Dugu Bo's face darkened, and he said irritably:
"Little Raven is so young. Grandpa was talking about a girl around the same age as the Holy Son."
"Oh, no, that's true."
"So, this is your chance."
Dugu Bo patiently explained, "Think about it. Although we don't know the name of the girl the Holy Son likes, we can be sure that she is definitely not by his side right now."
"Then your chance has come. Right now, you're the only one by the Holy Son's side. After all, when it comes to dating, it's all about proximity, first come, first served."
"Do you understand?"
"Oh, is that so?"
Dugu Yan was both surprised and enlightened, seemingly understanding but not quite.
She felt that something was off about what her grandfather was saying, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Unable to figure out what was wrong with her grandfather's words, Dugu Yan shook her head slightly, deciding not to dwell on it any longer. She said to Dugu Bo with a hint of helplessness:
"But the Holy Son said that we are both still young and don't want to date yet. We'll only consider it after we're adults."
"Young? Who's young?"
"Me and him."
"Hiss, Yan Yan, you're already fifteen years old, and the Holy Son is already twelve. You're not young anymore."
Dugu Bo took a breath and immediately began to instill in his granddaughter the relevant knowledge about the physical development of a Soul Master:
"Yan Yan, you should know that because of their cultivation of soul power, soul masters in this world develop much earlier than ordinary people. There are many soul masters who get married and have children at the age of fourteen."
"So you and the Holy Son are at the perfect age."
"But the Holy Son said he doesn't want to talk, what can I do?"
Dugu Yan pouted helplessly.
"Yanyan, Grandpa will ask you just one question. Tell me honestly, do you like the Holy Son?"
Dugu Bo looked at his granddaughter, Dugu Yan, with great seriousness.
Hearing her grandfather's extremely serious question, Dugu Yan's fair and delicate face instantly turned as red as an apple:
"Of course I like him. No woman could dislike someone as outstanding as the Holy Son, right?"
"If you like someone, don't give up. Just keep pursuing them."
Looking at his blushing granddaughter, Dugu Bo laughed heartily and said:
"As the saying goes, it's like climbing a mountain for a man to pursue a woman, but like piercing a thin veil for a woman to pursue a man. As long as a man isn't averse to the woman pursuing him, then that veil is practically nonexistent; it's easily pierced with a single touch."
"Grandpa, are you sure? What if we anger or annoy the Holy Son?"
Dugu Yan was somewhat tempted, but also somewhat worried.
"Don't worry, the Holy Son is a very good person. As long as you keep things within limits and don't go too far or cross the line, the Holy Son won't blame you or treat you badly."
"And Grandpa will help you too."
As he spoke, Dugu Bo suddenly chuckled and added in his mind:
"Of course, if all else fails, Grandpa will have to resort to some unconventional methods that cross the line. Like, drugging someone or something."
"Grandpa, you're not up to any bad idea, are you?"
Seeing the strange smile on her grandfather's face, Dugu Yan suddenly had a bad feeling.
She quickly emphasized two points:
"Grandpa, don't do anything reckless. I don't want to anger the Holy Son. If you cause any trouble and anger the Holy Son, I'll never forgive you."
Dugu Bo's smile froze instantly, and he tapped his granddaughter on the forehead in an annoyed tone.
"Oh dear, my precious granddaughter, you haven't even won over the Holy Son yet, and you're already turning your back on us, aren't you?"
"Oh dear, Grandpa~~"
A blush rose to her cheeks, and Dugu Yan's face turned red all the way to her ears. She covered her face and spat out a soft laugh.
"Haha~~"
Seeing that his granddaughter had finally shaken off her gloomy mood, Dugu Bo finally felt relieved and laughed heartily.
"Alright, that's enough. Yan Yan, just remember what Grandpa told you. Let's go back to the Holy Son's place first."
"Um."
Just as Dugu Bo and his grandson Dugu Yan were whispering to each other, Ye Qifeng had already turned around and arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.
Prepare to return Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin to the Yin-Yang Space.
I have been here for seven days, and the Yin-Yang space has absorbed enough Yin-Yang power.
Ye Qifeng was already planning to leave.
He still has many things to do and can't stay here forever.
Next.
First, return to Tiandou City and let Sister Erlong and Xue'er take the immortal herbs, and also take care of Ye Lingling's problem.
Then he left Tiandou City, turned south, took care of some things along the way, and then set off directly back to Wuhun City.
As for the far north, we can go there another time when we have the chance. Maybe we can take our teacher Bibi Dong with us to see and have some fun.
We'll discuss this matter another time.
Having been out here for over two years, it's time to go back and visit my teacher, Bibi Dong.
I wonder if the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa within her are still causing trouble?
The worst-case scenario is that the teacher might not be able to resist and run into the Rakshasa Secret Realm to cultivate again, causing her mind to be eroded and influenced by evil thoughts. If she does something crazy, that would be terrible.
I hope the teacher is obedient and waits for me to go back.
I really need to go back right away.
Between the shifting thoughts.
Night Seven Wind has arrived at A Yin's side.
Sensing the arrival of the Night Seven Wind, A-Yin's entire plant swayed gently, conveying a joyful emotion.
At the same time, tender branches stretched out and gently wrapped around Ye Qifeng's body a few times, with the tips of the branches affectionately tapping Ye Qifeng's face several times.
Since being planted by Ye Qifeng at the energy balance point of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, she has been absorbing the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth here every day.
The plant, which was originally two or three meters tall, has now grown to twice its original height, reaching six meters.
Besides.
Ah Yin's mental state has also recovered to the level of a six-year-old.
"Brother Ye!"
At this moment, Ah Yin transmitted a spiritual message to Ye Qifeng. Her voice was light, melodious, and crisp, like that of an innocent little girl.
She learned this nickname from Raven.
Night Seven Wind planted Ah Yin in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, and Raven naturally knew about it.
Upon learning that Ah Yin possessed consciousness, Raven would often go to Ah Yin's side and chat with her during her free time, aside from cultivating.
One to two to go.
The person and the plant quickly became acquainted.
Upon hearing Ruiwen call Ye Qifeng "Brother Ye," the still innocent A Yin followed suit and also called Ye Qifeng "Brother Ye."
Not only that.
She even calls little Raven "older sister".
"I'm planning to leave here. Do you want to come with me?"
Gently stroking Ah Yin's branches, Ye Qifeng spoke softly to her.
Although I'm inclined to take A-Yin away, it would be better to ask for her opinion and let her make the decision herself.
If she doesn't want to leave and wants to stay in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well to continue absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to restore herself.
That night, Qifeng respected her wishes and let her stay, promising to visit her again when he had time.
If Ah Yin chooses to go with him.
He then first took Ah Yin back into the Yin-Yang space.
Having absorbed the Yin and Yang energy for seven full days, the environment within the Yin-Yang Space had a promoting effect on Ah Yin's growth that was no less than, and perhaps even greater than, that of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.
After all, the Yin-Yang Space is a newly born world, containing the most primordial and purest Yin-Yang power in the world, which has the power of creation.
"I want to go with you."
Upon hearing Ye Qifeng's question, A Yin immediately conveyed her thoughts without hesitation, as if afraid that Ye Qifeng would abandon her.
"Alright, I'll take you with me. Next, I'll send you back to the Yin-Yang Space."
Ye Qifeng smiled gently.
"Uh-huh."
Ah Yin obediently loosened the branches that were wrapped around Ye Qifeng's body.
Then Ye Qifeng took out a small shovel and used his mental power to dig out Ah Yin's body, along with the soil, and planted it back into the original jade flowerpot.
He immediately formed a fingerprint and sent Ah Yin back to the Yin-Yang space, while also giving her a bottle of nutrient solution.
The spirit then left the Yin-Yang space and returned to its body.
After taking back Ah Yin.
Ye Qifeng returned to the group.
Just then, Dugu Bo and his granddaughter Dugu Yan finished their private conversation.
At this moment, Dugu Yan held Dugu Bo's arm with her jade-like hand, her face flushed, and her beautiful green eyes looked straight at him, as if carrying a special emotion. Ye Qifeng felt a strange feeling in his heart, as if there was some kind of change in Dugu Yan.
I don't know what Dugu Bo said to her.
However, seeing that Dugu Yan's mood had improved, Ye Qifeng felt somewhat relieved.
At least he knew that Dugu Yan wasn't too heartbroken or upset because of what he had said to her before.
That's a good thing.
