Chapter 516
Did Young Master Su Er say he would return with them?
Whether he returns or not is of no consequence.
"Bang!" The teleportation array landed in the front courtyard of Duke Su's residence.
Duke Su had just returned from court; he sat down, lifted his tea bowl, and hadn't even taken a sip before he paused for a second, then immediately rushed out of the hall, waved his hand, and all the guards were instantly in position.
The Qin Yan Marquis Manor and the Rong Prince's residence have been busy for two days; now our Duke Su's residence can finally get some broth.
Duke Su was well prepared. Young Master Su Er had returned in vain; the guards in the residence protected the young master and the young ladies, bringing them all into the battlefield within the courtyard, and even the ladies had arrived.
There was no need to enter the small space of the Demon Beast Realm; such a good opportunity for tempering, if one did not seize it, one's brain must be flawed.
Young Master Su Er: "??????"
"What are you doing back?" Lady of Duke Su asked him.
Young Master Su Er: "......"
He should have returned to inform us, so that Duke Su's residence could prepare.
As it turned out, the entire Duke Su's residence was already prepared.
Young Master Su Er's return was not entirely useless; Duke Su was watching the courtyard where the Flame Demonic Beasts were being slain, and naturally could not allow anyone to be injured. With his cultivation base, he could protect them, and only attended to Young Master Su Er when he had a moment.
"Is your elder brother with Qin Yan?" Duke Su beckoned Young Master Su Er close and asked.
"No, we are not together," Young Master Su Er replied.
Duke Su paused: "Who teleported these Flame Demonic Beasts?"
"The team led by Third Uncle Qin Yan," Young Master Su Er said, not understanding Duke Su's meaning. He added, "We were not with Qin Yan's team, so we do not know where their team is."
Duke Su fell silent for a moment, then could not help but laugh: "I thought it was because of Qin He that you returned with the Flame Demonic Beasts. It seems that this trip to the small space of the Demon Beast Realm, your luck was not bad."
Young Master Su Er's eyes immediately lit up: "The luck was excellent."
Duke Su: "......"
Look how excited the child is.
Duke Su laughed: "Suppressing a few Flame Demonic Beasts means your luck is excellent?"
"Oh, don't mention it." Young Master Su Er rolled up his sleeves even in the dead of winter and explained to his father exactly how good his luck was: "Third Uncle Qin Yan's team said from the start that they would rely on my elder brother's fortune. We didn't take it seriously. If the fortune of Duke Su's residence carried by my elder brother was truly powerful, we would have seen it when we killed the demonic beasts ourselves. Who knew that the fortune of Duke Su's residence carried by my elder brother was so mysterious? We found a group of Flame Demonic Beasts of all colors, over fifty of them. Driving them away was quite a spectacle. The demonic beast had only one claw in the teleportation array, yet it was still teleported back."
Duke Su: "......"
"You are just talking nonsense." Duke Su did not believe him.
"Father not believing is understandable." Young Master Su Er took out the teleportation array: "I must return quickly. Fewer people driving the Flame Demonic Beasts won't work. If one strange beast escapes after a teleportation, it would be a pity."
Duke Su thought for a moment, carved scales from the slain Flame Demonic Beasts, and personally fried a string of scales. After Young Master Su Er and others fried a few, they activated the teleportation array and returned to the small space of the Demon Beast Realm.
Next, Qin Bi teleported groups of Flame Demonic Beasts to Duke Su's residence. In an instant, Duke Su's residence became lively. Duke Su was also quite capable, summoning the children from the Qin Yan Marquis Manor to temper themselves together.
These crimson and white Flame Demonic Beasts were fast; once teleported to the Qin Yan Marquis Manor, they caused chaos.
Prince Xue He Shizi heard the news and used a summoning magic treasure to contact Qin He.
"Qin He," Prince Xue He Shizi said, "Are you with Qin Lang and the others?"
Qin He stood on the sandy ground, her color drained by the wind, frowning: "No, I haven't found them. Qin Han asked Qin Tang, but Qin Tang wouldn't say where in the small space of the Demon Beast Realm they are."
Qin He sighed: "I never expected Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle to be such people. It is one thing for the younger generation of the Marquis Manor to be immature and cause a rift, but as elders, they should not indulge Qin Bi's emotional outbursts. We are all children of the Marquis Manor; wouldn't it be better to collect things together? Instead, they refuse to join us, making it seem as though our Marquis Manor is discordant."
Qin Yuan and the others, hearing this nearby, took a deep breath. What Qin He said made sense.
Who would be willing to team up with Qin Bi? It was only for the sake of harmony in the Marquis Manor.
Qin Yan and Qin Xiang led the way ahead. Hearing Qin He's words, neither showed any change in emotion. Their luck in this trip to the small space of the Demon Beast Realm was average; they hadn't even collected a few ordinary spiritual plants.
"Sigh." Qin Xiang sighed.
Regarding Qin He's single-minded effort to find Qin Tan's team to strengthen their relationship, neither Qin Xiang nor Qin Yan could understand. Collecting things in the small space of the Demon Beast Realm was the priority; it was not the place to demonstrate harmony within the Marquis Manor.
If one wanted to reconcile with the Third and Fourth Branches, there were plenty of opportunities within the Marquis Manor during normal times.
Making a fuss about this in the small space of the Demon Beast Realm was unnecessary. The Marquis Manor had little foundation to begin with. With the Red Flame Festival approaching, they were hoping to collect some cultivation resources for the celebration.
And yet, Qin He was so concerned with finding Qin Tan's team.
Perhaps because Qin He was distracted, her usual good luck failed her this time, and she found very few spiritual plants.
It was simply terrible; Qin Yan frowned, feeling distressed.
But one could not say Qin He was wrong. Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle had taken their anger out on Qin He and refused to speak to her. Qin He did not hold a grudge and was willing to lower her head to reconcile. How could Prince Qin He Shizi say Qin He was wrong?
"It must be Qin Bi speaking ill of you in front of Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle." Prince Xue He Shizi felt a pang of sympathy for Qin He. Qin He had lowered her head to reconcile with the Fourth Branch: "You collect your things; there is no need to go find them."
If they refuse to acknowledge you, there is no need to force yourself upon them.
"My cultivation base is high," Qin He sighed, weighed down by worry: "The small space of the Demon Beast Realm is fraught with danger. Third Uncle and his team have low cultivation bases. I am not at ease. How can I not look for them?!"
Prince Xue He Shizi was indignant: "You are simply too kind-hearted."
"I have no choice," Qin He said. "They are immature; I cannot be immature."
Qin Yuan, listening from the side, also felt angry. For the past two days, they had done nothing but look for Qin Tan's team.
Qin Yuan stamped the sandy ground: "In my opinion, ignore them. They are ungrateful, and Qin He Jiejie's hard work is wasted."
Prince Xue He Shizi did not want Qin He to worry. Trudging through the small space of the Demon Beast Realm was already exhausting enough, yet she still had to worry about Qin Tan's team, who did not appreciate her efforts. Prince Xue He Shizi had also heard Qin Yuan's words.
Prince Xue He Shizi felt it was unfair to Qin He and was helpless, so he advised her: "You do not need to worry about Third Uncle and the others. They are hunting Flame Demonic Beasts. If they have made a harvest, you and your cousin should focus on your own urgent matters."
Had he not mentioned it, it would have been fine. But once he mentioned that Qin Tan's team had made a harvest, Qin He grew anxious: "Flame Demonic Beasts? How many have they hunted? Their team has low cultivation bases; can they even kill Flame Demonic Beasts?"
"Qin Lang and the others must have magic treasures," Prince Xue He Shizi, not yet sensing Qin He's urgency, continued: "They suppressed the lightning spiritual power of the Flame Demonic Beasts and teleported them back."
Qin He hurriedly asked: "Did they teleport many?"
