Chapter 287: Look After! Marriage?
Yang Dingtian stared at the scene before him in disbelief.
Dongfang Bingling, Nine Heavens Fairy. The most arrogant, strongest, and coldest person in this world. She was extremely reserved, charming, and elegant.
Now, she was like an infant and was unable to control her body.
Yang Dingtian had no choice but to remove her skirt and clean it using the pool above them before using his fire attribute mystic qi to dry it. In addition, he also needed to wash Dongfang Bingling before putting her skirt back on.
Yang Dingtian told his master what happened after changing Dongfang Bingling’s skirt.
“Master, Dongfang Bingling had wet her skirt.”
Dongfang Niemie wasn’t surprised by it as he sighed, “It’s normal. It will be more frequent in the future.”
Yang Dingtian was startled, “Master, what should I do now?”
“Send her back to Yin Yang Sect. Get her mother to take care of her. You still have your own important matters to deal with.” Dongfang Niemie continued, “However, don’t feed her anything while you’re on your way to the Yin Yang Sect. Just giving her an elixir every half a month will be sufficient. But you still need to let her drink water as usual. Therefore, wetting her skirt would happen quite frequently, and she might do it several times a day. Furthermore, help her shower frequently and massage her body. In short, while you are on your way to Yin Yang Sect, you will have to take care of her attentively.”
Yang Dingtian sank into silence. Only after a good while did he reply, “Master, I want to wake her up.”
“No. Absolutely not.” Dongfang Niemie continued, “Send her back to Yin Yang Sect, to where her mother is at. After that, go and deal with your matters. You still have important matters to handle. You need to kill the Abyss Overlord and gather the remaining 900 ten thousand years old blood black gold. You still need to forge a soul sword and breakthrough to the Martial Supreme class within a short period. Only by doing so would you have a chance to obtain victory in the martial competition for the city lord. Furthermore, you still needed to take Yanyan back.”
Yang Dingtian replied, “But master, I really wish to wake her up.”
“No, this is an order.” Dongfang Niemie ordered, “Now, exit this place, leave the East Parting Grassland. You can either send Dongfang Bingling to the Yin Yang Sect or Yang Peipei so that she could take care of Dongfang Bingling. In short, you have to go and deal with your matters.”
(TL NOTE: Yang Peipei is Dongfang Niemie’s wife and Dongfang Bingling’s mother.)
Yang Dingtian remained silent. Only after a long time did he comment unhurriedly, “Master, what’s the point of me getting stronger if Dongfang Bingling doesn’t wake up again.”
“Stupid!” Dongfang Niemie yelled, “You only wish to become stronger so that you can defeat Dongfang Bingling? Wrong, you wish to become stronger because you want to save the Cloud Heaven City, Yin Yang Sect and the whole world.”
Subsequently, Dongfang Niemie continued, “Child, I shall be frank with you. You are still weak. Therefore, I have yet to tell you an even bigger secret. Your mission is very important. You have to be able to differentiate what is important to you. Child, you must never make me disappointed in you. Leave this place at once and send Dongfang Bingling back. After which, go and deal with your matters first.”
Like before, Yang Dingtian didn’t reply.
Immediately, Dongfang Niemie’s voice became gentler, “Child, Dongfang Bingling is my daughter. I’m the person who loves her the most in this world when it comes to showing care and concern. However, you still have even more important matters to deal with. Not only are you the master’s hope, but you’re also the hope for Ximen Wuya, Ximen Yanyan, and a lot more. Go, leave this place now.”
“Sigh…” Yang Dingtian didn’t reply and sighed deeply. Subsequently, he carried Dongfang Bingling and circulated his mystic qi. He bore his way through the unfreezing pool above him and exited from the red crystal stone space.
After entering the water, Yang Dingtian circulated his mystic qi around his body. Therefore, the water was unable to get near Yang Dingtian, allowing both of their clothing to remain dry.
Yang Dingtian continued to float up.
Currently, the 1,000-meter deep unfreezing pool and central lake no longer had a dividing line and had completely become the portion of the whole lake.
A minute later, Yang Dingtian rushed out from the water surface while carrying Dongfang Bingling.
He had finally left this place. He stayed in this mirror-like central lake for no less than half a year.
After rushing out from the water surface, Yang Dingtian flapped his Sky Spirit Mystic Wings and soared up.
The whole central lake was as clear as a mirror, and the sky was like the water. The whole Burial Land appeared to be exactly like how it was half a year ago.
Yang Dingtian glanced at the area reluctantly before heading south while carrying onto Dongfang Bingling.
Yang Dingtian descended from the sky when he approached the Foxman Race territory that was at the edge of Burial Land. He ran while carrying Dongfang Bingling because it would be too eye-catching if he were to continue flying.
His destination was the Foxman Race’s territory. Although his master had ordered him to be not concerned with Dongfang Bingling, Yang Dingtian was still extremely unwilling to do so. Regardless of how much hate he had for Dongfang Bingling, she was still his master’s only daughter. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian was the reason why she became like this. And more importantly, Yang Dingtian wanted to defeat her fair-and-square four years later.
Therefore, he wanted to think of ways to save Dongfang Bingling.
Dongfang Bingling’s consciousness had been imprisoned. Therefore, it had caused her to remain unconscious. If he wished to wake her up, he would need to think of ways from a mental standpoint.
The Half-Human Race was even more mysterious than humans. Their talent in different fields was somewhat higher than humans. Therefore, the Half-Human Race might perhaps give him a surprise in regards to awakening Dongfang Bingling.
***
Yang Dingtian carried Dongfang Bingling and entered the Foxman Race’s territory.
The current him was wearing a black mantle that enveloped his whole body. Such dressing couldn’t be counted as bizarre because a lot of high priests would dress in such a manner. As for Dongfang Bingling, she was placed above the horseback.
There were a total of three Foxman Race tribes in the East Parting Grassland and had a population that exceeded millions. On the surface, the three tribes might seem united. However, they were facing internal disputes unceasingly.
Zhuri Beila’s tribe was the biggest among the three tribes. The tribe had around 400 to 500 thousand members and had close to a thousand miles of territory.
The reason why the Foxman Race had been separated into three tribes was that the three Foxman tribes’ appearances were very different from each other. Zhuri Beila’s tribe resembled humankind. Only their tail and ears had the traits of a fox. As for the other two Foxman Race tribes, not only their tails, ears, eyes, even their faces contained the traits of a fox. Other than this, one of the tribe members’ legs contained the traits of a fox, making them no longer like a human.
Therefore, among the three Foxman Race tribes, Zhuri Beila’s tribe was closest to becoming human. Since Dugu Fengwu had come to steal their sacred object, it would inevitably cause serious harm to the relationship they had with the human.
The capital of Zhuri Beila’s Foxman Race tribe was Beautiful Beira. Although it was the capital, it was actually just somewhat bigger than a town. Previously when Yang Dingtian had come here, he was loaded into a confined chariot and passed this area hurriedly. He was incapable of seeing the area clearly.
This time, Yang Dingtian had paid careful attention to this town after entering Beautiful Beira again.
The whole Beautiful Beira was constructed within a huge ravine. Other than the city gate, it was practically impossible to see any traces of a city. Rather, it was just a comparatively large village.
Densely packed houses were scattered in all directions. Some were built with stones, while others were with wood. Although they didn’t look sumptuous, they were still exquisite.
After entering this ravine city, he was able to see countless buildings immediately as they were all constructed while lying against the mountain, and the buildings stretched for dozens of miles. A lot of pathways were like the ribbon as they stretched towards the horizon, making them appear to be filled with uncommon scenery.
However, Yang Dingtian was still able to sense a nervous aura after entering the Beautiful Beira. The majority of the buildings had their doorway closed off, and there was barely anyone walking around the street. The majority of the stores on the roadside were closed. Occasionally, there would be a group of cavalry patrolling on the road.
It seemed like something had happened to Zhuri Beila’s Foxman Race. However, it was definitely not caused by the invasion of outsiders because the patrols of the city gate weren’t very strict. Furthermore, Yang Dingtian didn’t encounter any interrogation while making his way here.
Yang Dingtian was about to rush over to the mountaintop when a Foxman cavalry chased over, “Are you heading over to chieftain’s castle?”
Immediately, Yang Dingtian’s heart was filled with caution as he nodded his head and didn’t reply.
“We have been expecting you, my lord.” The commander of this cavalry replied, “We will escort you over to meet the chieftain immediately.”
Yang Dingtian couldn’t help but be slightly startled. What did this cavalryman mean? Apparently, they have been waiting for him for quite some time. The current Yang Dingtian was dressed up in disguise. No one could have possibly recognized him.
However, Yang Dingtian nodded his head after a slight hesitation. He followed this cavalryman and headed towards Zhuri Beila’s castle.
***
Zhuri Beila’s mansion was a castle that was approximately several hundred square meters big. It was constructed using large boulders and logs. The style of it could be said to be closest to the human among the whole Foxman Race tribe. And from that, it could be seen how intimate this person was to humans.
The whole castle didn’t appear to be sumptuous. However, it didn’t lack elegance. Even the slab stones were faintly white in color.
However, Yang Dingtian could feel a trace of stifling aura after he had entered the castle. All the martial artists, servants, and maids traveled around prudently. They didn’t dare to reveal any sound, and none of them interacted with each other. However, the whole castle was decorated with the red festive banner blueprint, as if a ceremony were about to take place.
“What ceremony is the lord preparing for?” Yang Dingtian inquired.
“Three days later, Princess Xiangxiang Beila will get married to Lord Leiming.” That cavalry commander commented.
Princess Xiangxiang Beila? Immediately, Yang Dingtian remembered that dainty, gentle yet enthusiastic girl. She ought to be the most beautiful lady in the Foxman Race as her beauty could bring forth dazzle to the eyes.
