Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 1282 - 1279_1

"Brother Shangguan, I don’t know where Bai Tian and the others have gone! I need to check in the space." There was only a barren land left in the space. It was devastated! She didn’t know what happened to Bai Tian and the others, which made Xiao’er very anxious.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Xuanyi nodded: "Okay, but first take a pill! Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet!"

"No need, I’ll be fine soon!" Xiao’er immediately refused.

Now that there is nothing left in the space, the remaining pill is even more precious!

"Take one pill!" Shangguan Xuanyi insisted unexpectedly!

Xiao’er has been unconscious for so long, and she can’t eat normally. He doesn’t know if there were any other problems with her body! He would only be at ease if she took a healing pill!

Shangguan Xuanyi immediately placed the pill at Xiao’er’s lips.

He planned to ask Yang Mei to bring the children over later, and then arrange for Doctor Luo to come and examine her!

Xiao’er initially intended to reject it, but then she thought that the space needed her energy to operate. Since her body was so weak now, it might be beneficial to the space if her health improved after consuming the pill! So Xiao’er opened her mouth and swallowed the pill.

After ingesting the pill, the weakness in Xiao’er’s body gradually faded away.

Then Xiao’er took Shangguan Xuanyi into the space.

The condition inside the space was just as Xiao’er had perceived from the outside—there was nothing left! Only a barren land remained!

"Bai Tian! Tian Bai! Xiao Huang!..." Upon entering the space, Xiao’er constantly called out, but there was no response.

Xiao’er wanted to look around, but she couldn’t reach anywhere beyond the barren land!

Xiao’er couldn’t help but feel panic deep down, Bai Tian and the others had been her companions for so long, she regarded them as her family, but now none of them were left!

"Brother Shangguan, why aren’t Bai Tian and the others here?" Could they be dead? Xiao’er was startled by her own thought, she quickly denied! Spit it out! There can’t be!

Shangguan Xuanyi was looking around in the space, he tried to walk beyond the barren land towards the area obscured by the white mist, but he found himself blocked by an invisible force.

The space was thoroughly destroyed by Gu Xuan this time!

Hearing Xiao’er’s words, he didn’t know what to say for a moment. After thinking about it, he said, "I guess Bai Tian and the others are probably sleeping!"

After saying this, Brother Shangguan thought of the extraordinary abilities of these animals and believed that they definitely wouldn’t die! They must be sleeping like Xiao’er had before!

At the time when Gu Xuan wanted to destroy the space, they must have tried their best to protect the space. They must have been injured and fell into a deep sleep as a result.

After hearing what he said, Xiao’er also found it reasonable. Bai Tian and the others were very capable! They must be fine!

They must be practicing hard in the place they usually retreat, hoping to wake up soon!

After all, Bai Tian and the others usually had to retreat for a while every time they used their magic power.

At this time, outside the space, Yang Liu came back with four children.

"Mother! Mother....." The four children ran and shouted for their mother.

Yang Liu and Yang Mei followed them, continually cautioning them to slow down! Be careful not to trip over!

Upon hearing the noise outside, Xiao’er quickly left the space with Shangguan Xuanyi.

The moment the two of them left the space, the door was forcefully pushed open!

Seeing that Xiao’er really woke up, all the children rushed towards her!

"Mother, you’re really awake!"

"Mother, you finally woke up!"

"Mother, you’ve been asleep for a long time!"

"Mother, how can you sleep so much! Even more than piggy!"

Seeing them rushing towards her, Xiao’er quickly squatted down and stretched out her hands to hold them.

Qingqing was the chubbiest and ran the slowest among the four, so she was left circling by herself at the edge while Xiao’er was surrounded by the three others who wouldn’t let go. All she could do was keep calling, "Mother, mother...."

She tried to move forward, but her siblings would not let her. Unable to reach her mother, Qingqing opened her small mouth and began to cry loudly.

Seeing Qingqing cry, Wuding quickly climbed out of Xiao’er’s arms. "Qingqing, your mom is here to hold you," he said.

Immediately Qingqing stopped crying and threw herself into Xiao’er’s arms.

This clever child knew how to manipulate her older brother with her tears—it always worked.

With four children and only two hands, Xiao’er could not give each child the attention they wanted. Seeing Wuding so understanding, she patted his head: "Wuding is such a good boy!"

As Qingqing rested her head on Xiao’ers chest, she whispered, "Mother, Qingqing is good too."

Hearing this, Xiao’er couldn’t help laughing. "Yes, Qingqing, you are good. All four of you are very good."

Xiao’er watched as her children, all now able to walk and talk clearly, felt a twinge of sadness in her heart.

She had missed the stage of their lives when they were learning to speak!

"Qingqing is the best!" Qingqing lifted her head from Xiao’er’s embrace, her small eyebrows furrowed, emphasizing her point with utter sincerity.

The other three children couldn’t help rolling their eyes. The one who cries the most is claiming to be the best? They thought.

Xiao’er wondered, "Who does she take after, this child of mine? She is so competitive!"

She looked over at Shangguan Xuanyi who was standing to the side with a smiling face watching this heartwarming scene: she must take after her father!

The four children played with Xiao’er for a while.

Xiao’er had Bai Tian and her children on her mind, she decided to consult with Master Yunfa and let the children go have fun by themselves.

.....

Master Yunfa anticipated that Xiao’er would have questions, which was why he had not yet left.

Xi’er, who was accompanying Master Yunfa around the garden, kept asking him about magic!

She was fascinated by the magic methods Master Yunfa used to save people, she wanted to learn! But she didn’t want to convert to Buddhism, so she asked indirectly.

Master Yunfa responded lightly, avoiding the heavy questions.

Despite asking for a long while, Xi’er didn’t get the answers she wanted, she felt a little downcast.

She had thought Master Yunfa was honest! But it turned out he was cunning!

"Princess Rui is awake. Shouldn’t you inform her family and give them peace of mind?" Master Yunfa asked.

"Right! How could I forget such an important thing! Master Yunfa, I’ll arrange for someone to accompany you in the garden."

"As you wish, I’m tired, I will sit here for a while. Please let Princess Rui know that I am waiting for her here." Master Yunfa pointed to a pavillion by the lake.

"Alright, Master Yunfa, please wait for a while," Xi’er said and during left quickly.

Master Yunfa sat in the pavilion by the lake, quietly watching the clouds in the sky as they rolled and shifted, waiting for Xiao’er to come.

As Xiao’er tried to send someone to see where Master Yunfa was in the garden, a messenger came to inform her that Master Yunfa was waiting for her in the pavilion by the lake.

So Xiao’er headed towards the pavilion.

Seeing Xiao’er approach, Master Yunfa stood up.

Xiao’er arrived outside the pavilion by the lake and gave a formal bow to Master Yunfa.

Master Yunfa quickly stepped back, "Princess, please do not overburden me with your courtesy!"

"Master Yunfa, you are too modest. You are the one who saved my life; it is only right that I show my gratitude."

"Saving you was my duty," Master Yunfa said, knowing that Xiao’er would recognize his intentions.

"Regardless, thank you, Master Yunfa, for saving my life."

Xiao’er was thinking of how to broach the topic of the space magic to him.
