As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1677: Chapter 439: I Arrive With Heroes—How Do You All Explain This? Secretly Visiting the Training Emperor Xi Xi [Monthly Ticket Requested]

The group settled down at an inn to rest.

Xi Xi and Yun E shared a room, as night fell, the entire city seemed to be shrouded in darkness, with not a glimmer of light.

”Sister Yun E, I heard from my father that Jiangnan is very romantic, it’s said there are many flower boats... they all shine brightly at night, why is Luoyun City so quiet at night?”

Xi Xi propped her chin with both hands, gazing at the pitch-black city, and couldn’t help but ask.

Yun E’s action of folding clothes halted.

Her heart inexplicably trembled.

She stood up, walked to the window, her beautiful face with eyes seemingly engulfed by endless darkness, so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

”Yes...”

”Why is it so dark?”

...

...

Qianyuan Dao City.

Outer Sect, Disciple City, Elder Court.

Squeak...

Li Che opened the study’s door and slowly walked out.

As night fell, the courtyard was full of lanterns, illuminating it with their light.

Snowflakes drifted, Zhang Ya was in the courtyard with her Qi-blood running through her veins, accompanied by the explosive sound of Qi, she continually practiced martial arts.

Upon seeing Li Che walk out from the study.

Zhang Ya stopped her martial practice: ”Husband... are you setting off?”

Li Che nodded.

Zhang Ya hurried inside, then took out a piece of clothing she had just sewn: ”New clothes for you, husband.”

Li Che took the clothes his wife sewed, smiling gently.

”Husband, please be careful when you go to Qi Tian City, I heard it’s very dangerous there, let’s just wish for safety and peace.”

Zhang Ya held onto Li Che’s embrace, resting her head on his chest, speaking softly.

Li Che rubbed Zhang Ya’s head.

After the couple shared a tender moment, Li Che eventually had to say goodbye and leave.

In the falling snow.

At the courtyard’s gate.

Zhang Ya leaned against the doorframe, standing in the wind and snow, the breeze brushing her black hair, stirring her deep eyes.

Watching her husband go off on his journey.

...

...

”It’s too dark... this city, it’s really too dark.”

Yun E tightly furrowed her brows, sensing something amiss.

Xi Xi seemed to notice Yun E’s heavy heart as well: ”Sister Yun E, do you feel there’s danger?”

”But, we’ve disguised ourselves to enter the city, and haven’t felt any assassins from the Corpse God Cult or Hunting God Pavilion tracking us...”

Yun E shook her head, eyes slightly narrowing.

She looked towards the sky, as raindrops gently fell.

As if bringing endless melancholy.

”Perhaps I’m overthinking, but... traveling outside, it’s good to be cautious.”

Yun E rubbed Xi Xi’s head.

”Wait for me for a moment.”

After Yun E finished speaking, she raised her hand, slender fingers suddenly pointing to her own brow.

Buzzing—

It seemed as if a vast divinity emanated from her back.

Xi Xi only felt Yun E become extremely cold, noble, emanating a terror-inducing oppressive force that stirred one’s soul.

”Sister Yun E...”

Xi Xi stepped back two paces, sensing the presence of the Temple God.

Xi Xi had long known there was a Temple God hidden inside Yun E.

But now it seemed, she’s growing stronger, Yun E and her companions are also growing stronger, and the fusion with the Temple God seems more powerful.

Suddenly...

Yun E suddenly opened her eyes, her face turning pale as paper.

Her delicate body swayed.

Her Temple God was frantically warning!

There is danger, great danger!

”Xi Xi, call Zhou Peng and the others, we must hurry, leave this city!”

Yun E said in a low voice.

Xi Xi’s expression turned stern, as for Yun E, she naturally had great trust, knowing she’s usually a bit reckless, only Sister Yun E could hold her back a little.

Yun E gave Xi Xi the feeling of being somewhat like her father, very steady.

Calling out to Zhou Peng who was preparing to eat a late-night snack, Jin Taixui also came out from the room, and the four of them immediately left the inn, plunging into the dark night, swiftly heading outside of Luoyun City.

In the rain, complete darkness.

The entire city turned into an endless expanse of black.

Xi Xi utilized the Art of Breath Concealment of the Slumbering Dragon Elephant Vajra and instructed Yun E and the others to use the Breath Concealing Charm she crafted based on the concealing technique.

The four people broke through the night on the rain-soaked, moist bluestone street, running swiftly.

However.

They had just reached the city gate.

Yun E quickly pulled everyone into an alley.
