Chapter 285: Chapter 289 The suicide note reappears!
Staying by Medusa's side, watching his daughter land safely, Chen Guan had accomplished the most important task of his return.
Naturally, the following days of celebration unfolded.
It was during these days that Xiao Qingyan's unique qualities began to become apparent. Unable to control the power within her, she casually stretched, nearly causing Xiaoyue, who was holding her, to fall.
To prevent any unforeseen consequences, Chen Guan, after consulting with Medusa, had no choice but to make the same decision as before.
Temporarily seal Xiao Qingyan's power!
"We've painstakingly cultivated for decades, ultimately achieving Dou Zong status thanks to the effects of the Breaking Sect Pill. Who could have imagined that a newborn child would be on par with us? Once Venerable Tianshe and the others return, Xiao Qingyan's fame will spread throughout the northwest."
After the days of celebration, Jia Xingtian sighed as he watched Venerable Tianshe, Xingyu, and the others depart.
The gap between people is terrifying!
Some people are born to reach the end of others...
"Dou Zong powerhouses were an unattainable height for the former Jia Ma Empire, but they're not enough for the current Tianmeng. Old man, it's time to strive. Don't you want to see the scenery that belongs to Dou Zun powerhouses?"
Yunshan responded with a chuckle. With the resources provided by Chen Guan and the advice of a group of experts, this goal, which he had previously dared not even think about, could now be expected.
Chen Guan also smiled as he listened to the sighs of the two people below.
"The overall situation in the northwest has been settled. From now on, you can focus your main attention on cultivation. As for more mundane matters, I will leave a few puppets to assist you. By the way, You Du has been opening a space wormhole recently. You can go and observe it in your free time. It will be of great benefit to you."
"Yes, Alliance Leader!"
...
The peaceful days passed, and in the blink of an eye, two months had passed.
Thanks to the hard work of the old monster You Du and his group of puppets, the first space wormhole leading to Zhongzhou Shengdan City was finally connected, connecting to Xiong Zhan who was waiting there.
Now, all that was left was to stabilize the wormhole and eliminate any hidden dangers, and the passage would be officially operational.
This also meant that Chen Guan's time in the northwest was running out.
Chen Guan made no secret of this, informing Jia Xingtian and the others of his intention to bring Medusa with him to Zhongzhou, so they could prepare themselves mentally.
That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
In Medusa's bedroom,
after a sparring match, Medusa rose and brought in Xiao Qingyan, who had been temporarily left in Zi Yan's care, placing her between them.
A family, all together.
After two months of recuperation, Medusa's health had long since returned to normal. After all, she was no ordinary person, and naturally, she couldn't be treated with ordinary eyes.
"I spoke to the Great Elders during the day. They didn't object to my going to Zhongzhou, but they were a little concerned about Qingyan coming with us. This little girl is the most talented Medusa descendant in recent years. The elders hold her in high regard and have high hopes for her. They believe she'll one day become a Dou Zong master, like you, or even a legendary Sage!"
A jade finger caressed her sleeping daughter's cheek, and a glint seemed to flicker in Medusa's eyes.
Ever since her daughter's birth, Medusa had become a completely different person in Chen Guan's presence. She no longer looked like a queen; she was simply a wife and a mother.
Chen Guan marveled at the change brought on by his child, yet he himself, in the eyes of others, seemed less frivolous. Even in his free time, he rarely left the Warcraft Mountain Range to play around.
Looking at his daughter, lying in the center, a Dou Zong master from the start, Chen Guan's eyes were filled with the doting of a father.
"Too small."
"What do you mean by small?"
"The expectations of the elders are too small. Becoming a saint is definitely not her final destination."
Medusa looked up and smiled, her beauty breathtaking.
"Saints aren't satisfied yet. Do you still want to help her become a Dou Emperor?"
"Why not?"
Chen Guan's eyes brightened, his voice calm.
Dou Emperor is only the endpoint of the Dou Qi Continent, but not the end of humanity!
Now that he's grown up, with the support of Danta and the Tushe Ancient Emperor Jade in his hands, coupled with the treasure of memories in his mind, relying on foresight, it's time to set more ambitious goals.
Medusa looked at the man with a burning gaze, realizing for the first time that his ambitions far exceeded her imagination.
It sounded like a fairy tale, but all those years ago, she never imagined that she would be lying in bed, sparring with the little creature in her eyes, and even bearing him a child.
Who could predict the future?
"I believe you."
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
After gently flicking the head of the sleeping Sky-Swallowing Python in his daughter's hand, Chen Guan took Medusa's hand.
"Prepare well these days. I'll also take Zi Yan to Canaan Academy. After that, it's time to return to Zhongzhou. The teachers are eager to see you."
Medusa nodded slightly.
Chen Guan's brow furrowed slightly, his mind drifting into a trance.
"I'll go check on Youdu. The wormhole should be almost there."
Leaving Medusa's chambers, Chen Guan didn't head to the square where the wormhole was located. Instead, he ascended the city wall alone, his expression tense.
Soon, the figure of Venerable Skyfire emerged.
"What happened?"
Venerable Skyfire asked, perplexed, seeing Chen Guan's dismal expression.
Was there anything else in the northwest right now that could make him frown?
Could it be something about Zhongzhou?
Sure enough, Chen Guan's next words confirmed his suspicions.
"I just received word that the Soul Palace is planning to ambush us on our way back to Zhongzhou."
Casting a barrier, Chen Guan spoke the secret expressionlessly, as if he were not involved.
"It's the Soul Palace again! They're truly everywhere on this Douqi Continent. However, with our current strength, it won't be that easy for the Soul Palace to succeed."
Skyfire Venerable's face was sullen. He used to have no feelings towards the Soul Palace.
But now, his disgust was growing day by day.
Chen Guan nodded silently. Ordinary ambushes seemed unable to threaten them.
But what if the several Heavenly Venerables from the past Alchemy Conference were dispatched at the same time?
Even if he had the means of communication given by Xuankongzi, it would be useless.
Otherwise, the suicide note that had been silent for many years would not have been triggered!
The words "total annihilation" were too glaring. This made Chen Guan realize that the Soul Palace's murderous intent towards him was even stronger than he had imagined!
Perhaps, it was also because of the annihilation of the Northwest Branch that the Soul Palace was furious.
He took a deep breath, murderous intent flashing in his eyes. Now that he knew in advance, it was unclear who was plotting against whom this time.
"Elder Yao, I need you to leave immediately and go to Zhongzhou."
"Dan Tower, Xingyun Pavilion, Yin Valley!"
