Chapter 705: Three Years: Changes in the Continent
Feihuang flew out of the imperial palace, looking down from the sky at the scene below.
Compared to three years ago, this city could be called several times more magnificent; the Emperor and Xun Yu were truly outstanding, and this nation already possessed the appearance of a prosperous age.
The smiles of the masses were proof of the nation's peace, while the growth in the strength of Spirit Masters was the embodiment of the nation's foundation.
Over these years, it was not just Feihuang who had married and had four children.
Xun Yu and Lingling, Dian Wei and Nan Feiling, Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wu, and others had also married one after another.
After marriage, the families of Dian Wei and Xun Yu naturally continued to follow Feihuang, while for Feng Xiaotian and the others, Feihuang fulfilled his original promise, allowing them to build the largest and most luxurious academy in the center of the continent.
The occupied land area was estimated to be even larger than the Shrek Academy of the original later generations.
The academy did not participate in any political or military activities, prioritizing solely the teaching of Spirit Master character and cultivation.
The headmaster was Nan Feihuang, the vice-headmaster was Shui Bing'er, the dean of students was Feng Xiaotian, and the academic committee also included genius Spirit Masters such as Huo Wu, Shui Yue'er, Yao Zi, and Huo Wushuang.
The group that had ventured to Sea God Island back then had all successively broken through to the Title Douluo realm over these years with the help of Feihuang and several other gods.
In one academy, with two gods as headmaster and vice-headmaster, plus nearly ten Title Douluos, this lineup alone attracted a large number of students to come and seek knowledge.
Whether they were royalty, nobles, or disciples of sects, they all took pride in sending their children there.
Feihuang flew over the Brute Force Sect, seeing the three brothers Jia Kui, Pan Feng, and Xing Daorong teaching their children to practice; after all, their own Title Douluo status had been achieved through shortcuts, and now that the Brute Force Sect was counted as one of the Upper Three Sects, they hoped to cultivate powerhouses who could truly reach the Title Douluo realm on their own.
Flying over the large courtyard of Dugu Bo's home, Yu Yuanzhen was sunbathing with Dugu Bo; he had now passed the position of clan head to the couple Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan, and had begun to enjoy retirement life with his in-law Dugu Bo. Who said dragons do not dwell with snakes? Weren't the two old men below acting like a pair of good brothers?
Flying over a courtyard filled with chrysanthemums, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Gui Douluo were gazing affectionately at each other, the two getting closer and closer. Feihuang hurried away, unable to bear the sight; he was afraid of getting a sty in his eye.
Flying over the new Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this new sect now had over a hundred disciples, and Ning Rongrong even had a daughter—though, of course, not one she had given birth to herself, but one she had adopted.
She had not married, because there was only one person she wanted to marry, and one person who was willing to marry her.
The one she wanted to marry was Nan Feihuang, but Feihuang did not like her, so she could not marry him.
The one willing to marry her was Oscar, but as the head of a sect, she had already promulgated a sect rule that the spouse of an auxiliary Spirit Master must be a Battle Spirit Master; as the head of the sect, she could not lead by example in violating it, so she could not marry him.
The one she wanted to marry she could not, the one willing to marry her she could not, and she was unwilling to settle, so she could only remain single like this.
Fortunately, her in-laws, the family of Jia Kui, had been married to that collateral branch woman for so many years and had already given birth to several children. There was no help for it; Jia Kui's sect needed an heir. Jia Kui had begged Feihuang to test his children when they were very young. With Feihuang's current strength, even if their martial soul had not awakened, he could detect what their martial soul was. It was a pity that two children in a row were both Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagodas.
Martial soul inheritance, unless a mutation occurred, was highly likely to inherit the higher quality side of the parents; the quality of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was simply higher than the beetle of Jia Kui's family, which was a fact.
It was not until the third child that it was detected to be the Brute Force Sect's Giant Strength Beetle, Herakles. Ning Rongrong took the opportunity to ask that clan sister and adopted a child, having the child take her surname, Ning. After all, she could choose not to marry, but the sect's pagoda still had to have an inheritance.
The last place he flew over was the sky above the Po Clan. Yang Wudi was refining medicine as always, and a beautiful girl in purple clothes beside him was handing him medicinal materials. It was Bai Chenxiang. Due to her contribution in intelligence, Feihuang had pardoned her, so she did not truly hide her identity, but chose to come to Yang Wudi's side. Because she remembered she had another grandfather, and the Min Clan had already failed the Po Clan once. Yang Wudi had no children of his own his whole life, and she wanted to fulfill her filial duty as a granddaughter. Such a life already made Bai Chenxiang very satisfied.
Feihuang smiled slightly; these beautiful scenes of life were all exchanged for by the efforts of countless people, and he would guard them well.
Thinking of this, Feihuang's figure flashed, and he flew rapidly toward the distance.
It was both to fulfill a promise made to someone back then, and to find another helper for his own future battles.
Inside the Spirit Hall.
Today, Bibi Dong was going crazy again: "Where is Qian Renxue? Why isn't she coming over again? Is she afraid to see me? Tell her to get over here."
Actually, after three years had passed, she had already grown accustomed to that secret chamber; no matter how much psychological trauma she had, living there for three years made even nightmares feel like a daily routine.
Qian Renxue had also fulfilled her original promise, coming to visit her every month and telling her about her daily life. In the past, Bibi Dong had never thought to understand this daughter of hers, but in the current situation, it had allowed her to gradually know what kind of person her daughter was in daily life, and her temperament had also stabilized much more than before.
But recently, for some reason, Qian Renxue had not come to see her for nearly a year.
At first, every time Qian Renxue came, she would tell her to get out; she did not want to see her happy appearance, and even less did she want to hear her love stories with Nan Feihuang.
But when Qian Renxue really stopped coming, she became somewhat anxious instead. When a month passed without a visit, she sneered, finally no longer coming to disturb her.
When three months passed without a visit, she mocked again, saying something about coming often to keep her company; sure enough, people of the Qian Family were all despicable villains, losing patience after such a short time.
Half a year without a visit, she began to get a little anxious: would Qian Renxue really never come again?
Nine months without a visit, she actually missed Qian Renxue a little; clearly, in the past, she had always told her to get lost.
Now that a year had passed, she had returned to the state she was in three years ago, grabbing the bars of the cage and Roaring crazily every day.
The only difference was that in the past, she Roared for Qian Renxue to let her out, but now she Roared for the people outside to call Qian Renxue to come see her. She wanted to ask Qian Renxue why she had suddenly stopped coming; she had said she wanted to resolve the grievances between mother and daughter, had she given up so quickly?
Actually, Qian Renxue did not stop coming on purpose; she had been pregnant all this time, and she was worried that Bibi Dong's crazy behavior would affect prenatal education, which was why she had endured not coming to see her.
It could be said that Qian Renxue had unintentionally completed one of the Thirty-Six Stratagems: the strategy of "to release in order to catch."
Now that the child had been born, she would naturally bring the child to see the grandmother.
