Chapter 1626: Miracle City (1/2)

“What? She wants to leave the residence? I’er’s idea

What kind of colossal joke was this? They’d gone to the trouble of sending Elder Xi to bring her back from the human domain And while they were very thankful that a co’er had returned, she was now held under virtual house arrest for the sole purpose of fulfilling their oath to House Xiahou The grudge could finally be resolved without further loss then

This was a shared thought of aldid, they would fail their delivery

If House Xiahou got another excuse to stir up anyHouse Yan into complete submission

Everyone’s nerves were taut Everyone orried soain

“I think we’ve treated the girl far too nicely after bringing her home”

“Why not seal her away and take away her will? Let’s see her make unreasonable requests then!”

“Sure, that sounds like a good idea” So a draconian stance Indeed, forcibly restraining Huang’er would take away her i at all

The more rational elders however, opposed “That’s inappropriate If we restrain her, her condition would take a significant hit over the long terive House Xiahou a half-dead cultivation cauldron, hoe explain ourselves then?”

“Yes, the girl has an unyielding spirit If she self-detonates once we remove the restrictions, we’ll have failed House Xiahou co her fancies isher more pliable”

The house elders were split in ter force House Yan couldn’t suffer the potential consequences of any accidents thereof

“This is what I think: why not let her go to the Bluesmoke Isles for some time off? We can simply send a few extra experts to protect her in the open and a few more to observe her in secret No rasp Keep close tabs on her”

“Mroup of experts, she won’t be able to do anything with her current level of strength Certainly, it won’t be possible for her to escape!”

“So what’s the consensus then? Let her go?”

“I don’t see much choice in the matter If she acts up and threatens us with suicide, we’ll have awith her Her days are numbered We’d be done for if she loses all hope and coo hat she says for now? We can avoid any extres, at least”

“Well, it’s decided then Send a couple of extra experts with her”

House Yan finally reached agree’er’s request Four elders and eight sters to the Bluesmoke Isles for some air and experience

Two of the elders were tasked with covertly following the group Their ht, either to cause trouble or escape

As for Elder Shun, though he’d kept his life, he’d lost his status as an elder of the house He didn’t have the right to attend the

The house’s decision ’er The house has agreed They’re going to take a group of young geniuses out for some experience You’re one of the’er

She’d been quite hung up over the decision and had decided to dangle her death over the house’s head if it didn’t agree Though she found the prospect absurd, her ed

She hadn’t expected theree so readily!

This was a rather serendipitous surprise “Can you come with us, Elder Shun?”

“I’m a traitor,” Elder Shun so? They’d be worried aboutyou off My naood thing for me to stay here instead If I came with you, I will only cramp your plans They’d be unnecessarily suspicious, and would keep a closer eye on you than you want”

Huang’er ise enough to understand what the old man wanted to convey “You’ve done so much for me over all these years, Elder Shun I hope I’ll have a chance to repay you sorow up I’m a decrepit old man Even if I die at some point, I will do so reasonably satisfied But you’re different You’re still young Reive up hope until the twelfth hour Rely
