Qi Yan, who accompanied the Peng family to fetch Peng Wu, did not return to the capital city with Qiao Cong and Qiao Jing after the reunion of the Peng family. Instead, he continued southward to pick up old Mu and Cheng Yun and their party.

The Peng family stayed at an inn for the night, and started their journey back to the capital city at dawn. They were caught up on the way by old Mu and Cheng Yun. Qi Yan successfully reunited with them, and Mo Yan was still alive, though he was unconscious most of the time.

The cook and the mute old couple from Xingluo Island were sent back to their original home by Feng Ming after they landed. Their home was in the southeast, not on the way to the capital city, so as not to delay sending Mo Yan to the capital. By this time, Feng Ming should have reached their destination with them.

After the greetings were exchanged, Peng Wei specifically looked at Mo Yan, with fury burning in his eyes, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

However, at this time, the Peng family, as well as Qi Yan, did not know that the magic treasure had already recognized Gu Xiaonuan as its master. This had not yet happened when they left the capital city. Therefore, old Mu and Cheng Yun naturally did not know either. They only learned from Qi Yan that Su Liang had not been successful in getting the magic treasure to recognize a master. They were somewhat frustrated, thinking that they would have to rely on Mo Yan to release the people trapped in the space.

For this reason, even though everyone in the Peng family wanted to stab Mo Yan more than once, they could not do so for the time being.

To avoid annoying the Peng family, the party led by old Mu bid them farewell and headed to the capital city first.

After old Mu’s party had departed, Peng Wu lowered the curtain of the carriage.

Axin asked a question, “Will the big bad guy named Mo receive his retribution?” On their way back, under the guidance of Qiao Cong and Qiao Jing, they had come to have the correct perception of the Xingluo Island. They realized that the island master they used to know, as well as their deceased grandfather, father, and uncles, were all bad guys, and they were nothing but their enemies.

Both children looked at Peng Wu, who nodded affirmatively, “Of course, he will. He has committed too many evils and he will definitely receive his retribution.” She believed that Su Liang and Gu Ling would find a way to solve the problem, and this would not give Mo Yan any chance to turn things around.

Lady Peng cried too much last night and her eyes were still swollen. She held Xiaoyue in her arms and looked affectionately at her two little grandsons. Axin and Ale closely resembled their Peng family, reminding Lady Peng of her own children’s childhood. Xiaoyue was also very obedient, greatly fulfilling Peng Wei’s wish to have a great-granddaughter.

Old Mu’s party moved quickly and arrived back in the capital city in the afternoon.

Upon seeing Zhu Zan at the gate, Qi Yan immediately asked, “What about the magic treasure? Has there been any progress?”

Zhu Zan nodded, “It has been solved.”

Qi Yan looked delighted, “Did the master succeed?”

Zhu Zan teased him with a smile, “Not the master, you’ll find out soon enough.”

The first one to enter was old Mu, who had dashed off to Yuanming Pavilion to hold Gu Xiaonuan as soon as they arrived. Cheng Yun, trailing behind, was pulling the bound Mo Yan off the horse.

Even though Cheng Yun was strong, he still dropped Mo Yan solidly on the ground.

Mo Yan was now awake, his hands and feet bound by ropes. Upon landing, his eyes narrowed as he recognized Zhu Zan.

After exchanging a few words with Qi Yan, Zhu Zan noticed Mo Yan and came over to help Cheng Yun, “Young Master Yun, you should go home. Leave him to us.”

Cheng Yun nodded, “Alright. I’ll go in first, and you guys can throw him into the dungeon.”

After these words, Cheng Yun was gone. Qi Yan was leading his horse inside, with Zhu Zan dragging Mo Yan, pulling him off the ground and through the main entrance. Then Zhu Zan and Qi Yan carried him towards the dungeon together.

The two did not continue their previous conversation, leaving the decision of when to tell Mo Yan the “bad news” to Gu Ling and Su Liang.

“Little Zhu, I recognize you,” Mo Yan of course wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to talk to Zhu Zan. “You’ve been in my space, you know how powerful that treasure is. Gu Ling got to the house first, but the fact that I’m still alive at this point means that my granddaughter Su Liang also couldn’t take my treasure! It’s even less possible for anyone else! That is a gift from heaven itself, and it won’t change hands easily! Inside it are people that Su Liang and Gu Ling care about. They’re sure to return the treasure to me next, and then, it’s my turn to rise.”

Mo Yan had originally thought that Su Liang had been sealed in his space, but on the way, he found out that that was fake, and the real Su Liang had always been at home. The one who went to Starfall Island was Yan Shiba. He almost vomited up blood from anger at the time.

But, for Mo Yan, that didn’t make much difference. He believed Su Liang and Gu Ling would plead with him to release the people again, and he had no vulnerabilities.

Upon hearing Mo Yan’s words, Zhu Zan frowned, “Dream on! Instead of fantasizing about turning the tables, you should think about how you’re going to die without a proper burial!”

Mo Yan sneered, “I give you a chance, and you don’t seize it. Don’t blame me for being heartless later. You’ll see, before long, your so-called victory will turn into a pipe dream. Some things are predestined by heaven. Your attempts to change that are nothing but delusions of madness.”

Qi Yan kicked Mo Yan in the chest, “Keep dreaming about your comeback! Let’s go!” He walked away with Zhu Zan.

Once outside the dungeon, Qi Yan sighed, “That old jerk is terrible, I really want to kill him!”

The two were walking to Yuanming Pavilion, Qi Yan asked, “If not for the master, then is it… the little master?”

Zhu Zan laughed, refusing to reply.

Qi Yan knew he had guessed correctly, and couldn’t help but praise, “The little master is really powerful! It seems I might get a chance to see that magical treasure space!”

Zhu Zan nodded and asked why Feng Ming hadn’t returned with them, “Did he have another task?”

“He’s following behind us.” Qi Yan explained to Zhu Zan what Feng Ming was going to do.

Zhu Zan sighed, “The Prince is truly benevolent. When Feng Ming returns, I must treat him to a good drink. If it wasn’t for him leading me to make the correct choice, I’d probably be dead, not living well like this.” With plenty of matters to handle at home, Zhu Zan didn’t feel exhausted, only fulfilled and joyful.

Old Mu had already picked up Gu Xiaonuan and not far were his two young disciples, he couldn’t help but laugh.

Old Bai, with Qiao Cong and Cen Man, were sitting by, as Old Mu couldn’t help but ask Cen Man, “So, the matter with the magic treasure, it still can’t be done?”

Except for Old Mu, the rest of Su Liang’s masters all laughed without speaking.

The next second, Ji Xiaoshu gestured to Gu Xiaonuan, and Old Mu disappeared.

Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu high-fived. They really loved this game! Gu Xiaonuan not only completely controlled the use of space but also remembered the “magic trick” movements. The three siblings really were in perfect sync.

A moment later, Gu Xiaonuan cheerfully waved her little hand, “Master, come out quickly!”

Old Mu returned to the first floor of Yuanming Pavilion, falling sideways and stood steadied by Old Bai.

He looked blank, “Who was it? Who did it?” Because he didn’t hear Gu Xiaonuan speak, he still didn’t know who was controlling his adventure.

Ji Xiaoshu raised his hand, his tone triumphant, “Of course it was me!”

Zhengzheng also raised his hand, smiling, “Master guess, is it me or Xiaoshu?”

Old Mu looked at the three children who were grinning at him. His eyes sparkled, and he rushed forward to hug Gu Xiaonuan, “Of course it was Nuannuan! Hahaha! Heaven has eyes!”

Neither Gu Ling nor Su Liang were at home at the moment. They had gone into the palace. Duanmu Chen had already sent Chang’an to invite Gu Ling twice because he had learned that Gu Ling was back.

The Imperial Palace.

Duanmu Chen said that he wanted to have a few drinks with Gu Ling and Su Liang to celebrate the complete destruction of Xingluo Island. He had originally planned to visit the Su Mansion, but there were more and more people there, most of whom he was not familiar with, so it wasn’t as convenient as before.

Gu Ling and Su Liang were in a good mood, so they didn’t refuse when Duanmu Chen invited them to have dinner in the palace.

It was already summer, and the nights were not cold either. The imperial meal was set up in a pavilion in the Imperial Garden. The surroundings were beautifully architectured with artificial mountains and flowing waters. The scenery was exceptionally beautiful.

Afternoon, Su Liang went to see Duanmu Zhen before entering the palace. Under her care, this little girl, who was weak at birth, was now quite healthy and was being pampered by the Empress Dowager. She was fair and adorable, speaking in a soft voice, and would laugh when she saw Su Liang and cry when Su Liang was about to leave.

Xing Yuyan’s son, who Duanmu Chen fathered, was much tougher. He had a good physique and was brave; Duanmu Chen was very satisfied. After he became the emperor, instead of having more women around him, he had fewer than before. Last month he had another son, and now he’s learned that the problem on Xingluo Island has been completely resolved, he was incredibly relieved.

The dishes were served, Duanmu Chen raised his cup with a smile, “This cup is to you both. You are my lucky stars and my best friends in this life. Thank you for everything you have done or not done for me.”

Su Liang raised her cup and clinked it with Duanmu Chen’s, “Here’s to a good collaboration.”

After a drink, Duanmu Chen said with a sigh, “I still remember the scenes when we first met in Bei’an County. In the blink of an eye, I became the only emperor in the world, and we have all become parents. Time really flies!”

After his sigh, Duanmu Chen found that Gu Ling had already started to eat, and he couldn’t help but laugh, “I also want to toast to Nuannuan.”

“Let’s talk about it when she can drink.” Su Liang shook her head.

Duanmu Chen wasn’t hungry and wasn’t interested in the food either. He didn’t care about the rule of not speaking during a meal and asked Gu Ling and Su Liang if they had been into that space before, “I am really curious about what it’s like?”

Su Liang shook her head, “Not yet. If his Majesty wants to experience it, just find Gu Xiaonuan.”

“What if Nuannuan locks me in and then ignores me while she plays?” Duanmu Chen asked with a smile.

Gu Ling nodded, “It’s possible.”

Unable to suppress her amusement, Su Liang added, “That won’t happen. Nuannuan is very adept at controlling the space now. If his Majesty is worried, you can bring some food and a quilt. Yan Shiba said the quilts inside are thin, and the bed is hard.”

Duanmu Chen cleared his throat, “Perhaps it’s best to wait until Nuannuan is a little older, there’s no rush. Actually, I’m not worried about Nuannuan, I’m worried about Gu Ling purposely teasing me.”

Once Gu Ling had finished eating, Duanmu Chen asked, “You guys are not going to leave suddenly without saying a word, are you?”

Gu Ling returned his question with another, “Do we need to inform his Majesty before leaving the capital?”

Duanmu Chen shook his head, “That’s not what I meant. We are friends, you guys can go wherever you want, just let me know at least. So that I know where to find you if I need to.”

Su Liang chuckled, “Let’s see in a few days. We’ve just solved the problem and need to rest. We’ll consider traveling after cleaning up the remnants. We will definitely take the children back to Su’s village this year. It’s time for me to see my old friends in the village.”

Duanmu Chen held his forehead, “I knew you guys would miss Su’s village. That place really is extraordinary and it’s also where you two met. If there’s a chance, I would like to go back and take a look again. It’s a pity that Zhenzhen and the others are still too young, otherwise I would be relieved to let you guys bring them along, to gain worldly experience.”

“There will be opportunities in the future.” Su Liang smiled.

“I’ll take that as a yes.” Duanmu Chen said hastily. Seeing how Zhengzheng and Ji Xiaoshu have seemingly become Gu Ling and Su Liang’s children, Duanmu Chen was envious and regretted not having children earlier. His children are still too young, otherwise it would be beneficial to learn from Gu Ling and Su Liang.

When Gu Ling and Su Liang left the palace, they also brought a basket of rare fruits that were tribute from other places. Duanmu Chen said those were for his beloved goddaughter, Nuannuan.

By the time they returned home, it was already very late.

The children were all asleep. Old Mu and Cheng Yun were still sitting in the Yuanming Pavilion waiting for Gu Ling and Su Liang.

“Master, Cheng Yun.” It’s no surprise for Su Liang to see them both as she entered. They should be back according to the time.

Old Mu reported that everything went smoothly on the road, and Feng Ming escorted the cook couple home to settle them in. Then asked Gu Ling, “We can’t ignore the mobsters who ran from Xingluo Island, each of them is highly skilled in martial arts with nefarious intentions, they will become a problem sooner or later.”

Cheng Yun agreed, “We must find these villains and eliminate the remnants. Speaking of which, what happened to Sheng Yue? Have you killed him yet?”

Su Liang shook her head, “No, Gu Ling has let Sheng Yue handle the remnants of Xingluo Island.” Although Old Mu and the others also left Xingluo Island on the same day, Gu Ling hadn’t mentioned his plans for Sheng Yue yet.

Old Mu and Cheng Yun were both stunned.

Cheng Yun expressed his doubt about Sheng Yue’s character, “Wouldn’t he have run away?”

Old Mu also didn’t fully trust him, “He’s not reliable. I’d rather take action with Old Bai and Old Qiao, we old brothers can handle this!”

“Master has worked hard for so long and just got back. You should rest well. As for this matter, we have arranged for others to investigate it, and there will be news soon. The first step is finding these people, and then we’ll know if Sheng Yue is really doing what Gu Ling told him to. If Sheng Yue really did take action, he would be the most suitable person; he knows and understands the people of Xingluo Island.” Su Liang said.

Old Mu nodded several times, “If that’s the plan, then it’s all good. As a master, I don’t have to worry about it now. I do need to rest.”

Cheng Yun smiles, “We all went to see the space today, Nuannuan is really smart.”

When Old Mu and Cheng Yun were about to go back to rest, they remembered Mo Yan.

“How will he be dealt with?” Old Mu asked, “He is still boasting that you guys will beg him soon, it’s hilarious! We have not told him the ‘good news’ yet, we’ll wait for you guys to decide. While on the way today, we bumped into the Peng family, and they all wished they could tear Mo Yan apart!”

At this moment, Qi Yan came in with Peng Fan.

The Peng family left late, and they didn’t get back to the capital until the night. As soon as he got home, he came to inform Su Liang.

“I know, you go back quickly.” Su Liang said.

Peng Fan saluted and thanked Gu Ling and Su Liang once again, “It’s late already, I will accompany my sister to come and thank you properly another day.”

“No need to be so formal.” Su Liang smiles, “As long as everyone is safe, tell your mother to relax and cry less, and smile more.”

Peng Fan nodded firmly, “Yes!” Upon finishing speaking, he took his leave.

“Master, Cheng Yun, both of you have been working hard on the road, quickly go and sleep. As for Mo Yan, we will discuss it tomorrow.” Su Liang said with a smile, “We are tired, too, so we won’t go see him. Let him have more wonderful dreams in the dungeon, and tomorrow he will see with his own eyes how Gu Xiaonuan can resurrect the dead. We will prepare delicious food and sweets, and while eating the reunion feast, we will watch the good play.”

Upon hearing Su Liang’s words, Old Mu laughed out, “Very well, I am truly looking forward to it!”
