Miss Loser is too enchanting

"Xiaohuo," Dugu Qianye called out to Xiaohuo.

Understanding her intentions, Xiaohuo dived down to the cliff base and caught the severely injured Xiaoyin. She took out a Sacred Rhinoceros Pill and fed it to him, signaling Xiaoyin to slowly fly up to the top of the cliff.

Yu Batian and his men, hearing Tongtong’s voice, looked up, only to see a streak of rainbow-like afterimage flashing by, followed by Dugu Qianye’s voice, "Rain Hall Master, didn’t you say that killing is forbidden before the great ceremony? Otherwise, it’s disrespectful to the Divine Master. It seems you have quite the issue with your own Divine Master!"

Yu Batian saw Dugu Qianye sitting atop Xiaohuo, facing him from the cliff! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Baili Xie!"

"Oh, Rain Hall Master, you still remember me?" Dugu Qianye said with a smile, "Still thinking about taking my little life?"

"How did you leave Wuyou Island?" Yu Batian was very surprised to see Dugu Qianye. Although he had never been to Wuyou Island, he knew of the existence of Xiao’er and others and knew they reported the island’s situation to Lei Fengqi every day. If Dugu Qianye was gone, the people of the Divine Temple would have surely noticed.

"Of course... flew off," said Dugu Qianye.

"Rain Hall Master, it was her, she’s the one who killed Hall Master Ten," Ba Lang pointed at Dugu Qianye and said, "I was on another mountain, watching from a distance, and it was her who killed Hall Master Ten!"

"Ba Lang?" Dugu Qianye looked at Ba Lang; she had been wondering why the Divine Temple people had come directly here to arrest someone; it turned out he had informed the others.

Yu Batian looked at Dugu Qianye, hating her so much his teeth itched. She had not only killed his disciple, but now she had also killed his brother!

"Baili Xie, originally I thought about letting you live a few more days, but I never expected you’d come here to court death. Haha, heaven is truly helping me! Baili Xie, prepare to meet your end!"

If Dugu Qianye had stayed on Wuyou Island, he would have had no chance to kill her. But now, even if Dugu Qianye died, the Hall Master couldn’t blame him.

"Who dares to harm my grandson!" A woman! Mo Zhenting and Mo Chi arrived just in time to hear Yu Batian’s words, and with a roar of anger like that of a lioness. However, seeing Dugu Qianye’s attire, he swallowed the word "woman".

"Who are you?" Yu Batian asked coldly, seeing the new faces suddenly appearing.

"You want to kill my grandson, and you still ask who I am?" said Mo Zhenting.

Dugu Qianye had Xiaohuo fly over to where Mo Zhenting and his group were, and said to Yu Batian, "They are, of course, the people who have come to help me! They are also the ones who will take your life!"

"Young lady, go to the back, careful not to get hurt later," Mo Zhenting said.

Dugu Qianye obediently went to the back of Mo Zhenting and Mo Chi, watching them stand in front of her, protecting her from danger.

"Hmph, no matter who you are, since you are together, I will take you all down," Yu Batian said as he flew into the air, facing Mo Zhenting.

The other dozen or so people were his loyal followers, all at the Phantom Emperor Level. Seeing Yu Batian fly into the sky, they also took flight behind him.

"Merely jesters jumping around," said Mo Chi, "Father, let us brothers handle them!"

Having slept for over a year, Mo Zhenting’s body had still not fully recovered, so naturally, Mo Chi and the others would not dare let him engage in battle.

"Great uncle, they from the Divine Temple love to bully the few with the many. This time, you might as well learn from them," Dugu Qianye said. Mo Chi and his brothers had advanced to the Phantom Venerable level much more recently than Yu Batian. If it came down to one-on-one combat, they would likely be at a disadvantage.

"Alright. Qianye, you guys step back a bit. Your uncles haven’t had a good stretch in a while, and I’m itching for some action. I might not know my own strength in the heat of battle and it wouldn’t be good if you got hurt," Mo Lao San said with a grin.

"Got it," Dugu Qianye responded and had Xiaohuo fly a bit further away.

Since arriving in this world, for the first time, someone shielded her from the storm, and for the first time, someone told her to stand back and watch.

"This feeling isn’t half bad. But I can only enjoy it once in a while. Otherwise, I’ll become lazy," Dugu Qianye said with a sense of emotion while watching.

"In the future, Xiaohuo will also protect Big Sister from the wind and rain!" Xiaohuo communicated to Dugu Qianye through their bond.

"Hehe, then I’ll wait for Xiaohuo to grow up quickly," Dugu Qianye laughed.

"Brother, they’re all so amazing!" Tongtong watched the battle ahead with wide eyes. A fight at the level of the Phantom Venerable, that was a rare sight to see!

In the meantime, Xiaoyin woke up, saw Tongtong, and thought he too had been killed by the people of the Divine Temple, which made him instantly overwhelmed by sorrow.

"Grandpa, you’re awake!" Seeing Xiaoyin wake, Tongtong said happily, but noticing Xiaoyin’s forlorn face, he asked in confusion, "Grandpa, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

"None of you are dead," Dugu Qianye immediately figured out what Xiaoyin was thinking and spoke up.

"Hmm." Upon hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, Xiaoyin looked around, realized he was sitting on a phoenix, and sat up in surprise. He then felt his wounds were mostly healed. Looking ahead, he saw two groups engaging in battle—it was Mo Chi and his companions. It was evident they were fighting with great enthusiasm.

"What’s going on?" Xiaoyin asked. He remembered falling off a cliff before he passed out.

"Brother saved you. Then uncle and the others started fighting with those bad guys," Tongtong explained simply, though that was more or less what had happened.

"I really can’t thank you all enough," Xiaoyin expressed his gratitude to Dugu Qianye. He had thought both he and Tongtong hadn’t escaped their plight, but they ended up being rescued.

"You’ve been taking care of my grandfather all this time. We don’t even know how to thank you!" Dugu Qianye stated, "Besides, Tongtong is such a good kid. It would be very pitiful if he was left alone in this world."

"Master, they’re done fighting," Xiaohuo chimed in and flew over, just in time to see Yu Batian knocked to the ground by Mo Chi. She unleashed a jet of flame, incinerating the opponent completely. Then, she circled the battlefield, burning all the stones to ash.

"Uh." Everyone was speechless at Xiaohuo’s actions.

"Master, I kept their rings for you," Xiaohuo said. She landed Dugu Qianye and the others on the ground, took human form, ran over to the ashes, and blew on them to reveal the rings hidden inside. She clearly remembered the lessons Dugu Qianye had taught her.

"You," Dugu Qianye chuckled as she watched Xiaohuo. Seeing others gaze at Xiaohuo with the eyes of a little miser, she suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with her teachings.

"Why keep the Space Rings?" Little Baiqiu asked Xiaohuo, appearing on Dugu Qianye’s shoulders at some point and blinking its big eyes curiously.

"Because Big Sister said, we have many people and need a lot of money to sustain," Xiaohuo explained.

"Oh. I get it now. I will do it too in the future," Little Baiqiu declared, waving its tiny paws.

"Pfft!" Everyone was amused by Little Baiqiu’s earnest cuteness.
