Douluo Dragon King: Nine Dragons Break the Abyss

Chapter 262: Lan Fuzi's Conflict
It was also the first time that Qiangu Qitian knew the Demon Emperor's real name. In the nearly thirty volumes of Dragon King Legends, the strongest existence in the Holy Spirit Church was always called the Demon Emperor.

He took a few steps forward and came in front of Lan Ji and Lan Fuzi, holding one of them with one hand and lifting the mother and daughter up.

"No need to be so polite. From now on... we are all a family."

As Qiangu Qitian approached, the restlessness in Lan Ji's heart became more and more obvious. The moment he touched her body, Lan Ji felt as if her soul was trembling.

The wonderful feeling that struck the soul directly was difficult to describe in words, but Lan Ji was sure that she had never experienced such a feeling in her long life.

even if...

even if...

Thinking of this, Lan Ji's fair skin couldn't help but turn faintly pink. Her mature face was matched with such girlish shyness, which stunned Qiangu Qitian, who was helping her.

Leng Yulai, who was standing behind, couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face when he saw this scene.

As the only outsider on the scene, she saw it most clearly.

This is... a two-way journey?

She thought her little man was a pervert, but she didn't expect that the old woman, the Demon Emperor, also coveted her little man's body.

Judging from the appearance, he has most likely fallen.

"Sister Lan Ji, you..."

Qiangu Qitian tried his best to control the urge to swallow his saliva and asked while maintaining a calm appearance.

He was coveting the body of the Demon King of the Holy Spirit Church in front of him, but at this moment, his daughter was by his side, so he had to pay attention to his image.

Even if the Demon Emperor has intentions, Qiangu Qitian cannot act so impatient at this time.

Only then did Lan Ji realize that she had lost her composure, especially in front of her own daughter...

She hurriedly shook her head and explained, "Sorry, Master...Master, Lan Ji lost her composure just now."

Lord?

Am I the Silver Dragon King?

Qiangu Qitian was not quite used to this title, mainly because... he had a sense of shame.

"Ahem, Sister Lan Ji, you better not call me Master." Qiangu Qitian used a cough to cover up his embarrassment, "How about we just call each other brother and sister?"

Lan Ji shook her head, her attitude was very firm: "No, Master, the revenge between me and the Buddha must rely on you in the future. Without you, my best end would be to become a machine that only knows how to kill. You have given us a new life, and we should repay you with the rest of our lives."

"You are our Lord, and there is nothing wrong with you."

Seeing Lan Ji's serious expression, Qiangu Qitian let her do what she wanted.

"Okay, Sister Lan Ji, from now on, Fuzi can call me whatever she wants. Don't force her."

Lan Ji nodded, indicating that she understood.

Only then did she glance at her daughter from the side, and her beautiful brows couldn't help but frown.

Because——at this moment, Lan Fuzi was in a daze.

She still hadn't recovered from the shock of finding out her mother fell in love with the man she liked.

This made the young girl, who was just beginning to fall in love, fall into deep confusion.

She didn't understand what she should do.

Even the actions of supporting his mother and kneeling before Qiangu Qitian were all done unconsciously by Lan Fuzi.

On one side is my mother, on the other side is my sweetheart...

How should I choose?
"Buddha's son, Buddha's son..."

Lan Ji's somewhat angry voice sounded in Lan Fuzi's ears. After a long time, the girl's consciousness returned to her body belatedly.

She looked at her mother in bewilderment. Seeing the anger on Lan Ji's face, Lan Fuzi asked with some concern, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"

But after saying this, Lan Fuzi realized that it was most likely herself who made her mother unhappy.

Thinking of this, the girl lowered her head with some guilt.

"I'm sorry, mom..."

Even so, Lan Fuzi didn't know where he had gone wrong at this moment.

Her mother has suffered too much for her...

Maybe it’s time for mom to pursue her own happiness.

Seeing Lan Fuzi's sudden change in mood, Lan Ji also fell silent, and the anger that had just arisen because of her daughter's absent-mindedness and rudeness gradually dissipated.

She reached out and stroked Lan Fuzi's soft long hair, and gently held him in her arms:
"My dear daughter, it's okay. From now on, you and I will both belong to the master."

"Lord?"

Obviously, Lan Fuzi didn't hear clearly the conversation between Lan Ji and Qiangu Qitian.

Lan Ji patiently explained: "It's your friend. You can still be friends with the master in the future."

Listening to Lan Ji's words, Lan Fuzi turned his head to look at Qiangu Qitian.

The sad and desolate expression on the girl's face made Qiangu Qitian feel distressed - she was a beautiful girl, and Qiangu Qitian felt distressed for her.

"Brother Qi Tian..."

Qiangu Qitian smiled slightly: "I'm here."

Lan Fuzi pursed her lips. She knew that from now on, she might have to call this brother "Dad"...

Lan Ji also noticed the change in Lan Fuzi's mood. She secretly took note of the matter and decided to find a time to have a good talk with Lan Fuzi about it.

Now, what she needs to do is to have a conversation with Qiangu Qitian.

Lan Ji asked, "My Lord, do you know that my mental state is not stable?"

What she originally wanted to say was, "Am I a lunatic?", but as if in order to maintain something in front of Qiangu Qitian, what came out of her mouth turned into the above words.

No one wants to show their worst side in front of their loved one.

This is Lan Ji’s mentality at this moment.

She was attracted to Qiangu Qitian at first sight, no, she fell in love with him at first sight. In addition to the resonance at the soul level, the mysterious and powerful talent of Qiangu Qitian, and the ability to help her complete her revenge plan, there was another very important point - she felt the long-lost support from Qiangu Qitian.

Before this, Lan Ji lived under the protection of her husband, and the pressure of survival never fell on her. It is no exaggeration to say that that period of time was the most brilliant time in her life.

After being a widow for 20,000 years, the lonely and numb Lan Ji once again experienced this long-lost feeling, just like a downpour after a long drought.

Qiangu Qitian inadvertently touched her heartstrings.

Qiangu Qitian nodded: "I know a little bit, but Sister Lanji, don't worry. The project at the Spiritual Pagoda has been restarted. I believe it won't be long before we can develop results. Please wait for a while."

"I asked Fozi to bring me to see my sister this time. In addition to discussing cooperation matters, I also wanted to make a plan for what's to come."

"You tell me."

"What Buddha meant was that I should take you out of the Holy Spirit Church. After the medicine is developed, I will let you take it directly, and you will return to normal and never return to the Holy Spirit Church.

But in this case, your status as the Demon King will be wasted. Since you recognize me as your master, I will tell you my opinion. Although you do not have real power in the Holy Spirit Church, your status is definitely a transcendent existence. Even if you cannot participate in the decision-making, you will have no problem walking freely in the Holy Spirit Church. "

"You want me to use my identity as the Demon King to collect information from the Holy Spirit Church?"

Lan Ji immediately understood what Qiangu Qitian meant. Qiangu Qitian smiled and nodded, saying, "Revenge against Tang San is still a long way off for us. What we are focusing on now is the threat of the Abyss to the Douluo Plane. The Holy Spirit Church is a very important part of it. The Blood River God-killing Formation is an important part of the Abyss opening the second channel. I need you to help me keep an eye on this in real time."

“If it really manages to gather all the materials, Sister Lan Ji, you don’t have to be the center of the formation. You can give this position to the two ghost emperors.”

Lan Ji blinked her purple eyes smartly and asked playfully, "My Lord, are you concerned about me?"

Qiangu Qitian: ...

He glanced at Lan Fuzi somewhat guiltily, as if he was walking around someone else's yard, picking someone else's melons, and watching someone else's child missing his mother.

Fortunately, Lan Fuzi seemed to be in a trance at this time and did not notice the ambiguous conversation between his mother and Qiangu Qitian.

"Of course I care about Sister Lan Ji."

Qiangu Qitian also spoke to Lan Ji in a joking tone.

Lan Ji felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "I will definitely complete the task assigned by my master."

"But, my Lord, can you please grant me a small request?"

Qiangu Qitian gestured, "Sister, please speak."

Lan Ji patted her daughter's head and said, "The Holy Spirit Church is a place where filth and dirt are hidden in the world. I hope that when the master leaves the Douling Continent, he can take Lan Fuzi with him. I hope that the master can understand my wish as a mother."

"Easy to say."

Qiangu Qitian agreed without any hesitation.

Having Lan Fuzi by his side is also a good thing for Qiangu Qitian.

He and Lan Ji had just met, and the affection she showed him seemed a little excessive.

However, it is very good to have Lan Fuzi acting as a link between the two of them.

"Following me, you will definitely not suffer any injustice."

Qiangu Qitian's guarantee made the Demon Emperor put down the last bit of worry in his heart.

"During this period of time, I will ask Sister Lan Ji to stay here. After the potion is developed and Sister's mental state is under control, I will help Sister break through the last step before leaving Douling Continent."

"This way, not only can my sister explain to the Holy Spirit Church that her mental state has returned to normal, but she will also have an explanation for the formation's core."

"I am waiting for good news from the Lord."

Lan Ji responded with a smile.

She handed the Lan Fuzi in her arms to Qiangu Qitian, and this action made Lan Fuzi come back to his senses again.

"Buddha, follow the master carefully."

After giving some instructions, the Demon King walked towards the crystal coffin and lay down in it again.

The heavy coffin lid was lifted up by an invisible soul force and accurately became one with the coffin body.

Lan Fuzi did not say anything, but just followed Qiangu Qitian silently.

Looking at this little girl who was full of worries, Qiangu Qitian just shook his head.

He said to Leng Yulai: "Yulai, let's go."

"Ah."

Leng Yulai, who had watched a wonderful drama, walked briskly to Qiangu Qitian's side and took Qiangu Qitian's arm.

She pulled Lan Fuzi over again and said kindly, "Fuzi, don't worry. I will take good care of you in the future."

Since they have confirmed through eye contact that they are future sisters, Leng Yulai will not be stingy with her generosity and gentleness.

"Thank you... Sister Yulai."

Lan Fuzi also showed some reaction.

Leng Yulai patted Lan Fuzi's younger sister, as if to comfort this future sister.

After returning, I have to persuade this person...

Leng Yulai had already made up his mind.

Just like... when I advised Mu Xi.

After returning to Tiandou Royal Hotel, Leng Yulai immediately took Lan Fuzi to a room to talk in private.

It was already dark at this time, and Qiangu Qitian also released his pet.

The naked little Mugou shook his head gently and rubbed Qiangu Qitian affectionately. The bell on his neck made a crisp sound and the tail behind him shook with excitement.

Next is...

……

Ever since Leng Yulai finished chatting with Lan Fuzi that night, the girl seemed to be in a much better mood.

However, when I first saw Qiangu Qitian, I still felt inexplicably awkward.

However, as they spent more time together, this sense of estrangement quickly disappeared, and Lan Fuzi seemed to have adapted to this feeling very quickly.

The girl's face gradually smiled more and more, which made Qiangu Qitian stunned.

Curious, she asked Leng Yulai why this happened.

But the answer he got was - "secret".

Because of that smug look, Leng Yulai finally got to experience Nanali's daily life.

Qiangu Qitian looked at Leng Yulai's appearance of enjoying herself and always felt that this woman was doing it on purpose.

A month passed quickly. Qiangu Qitian, Leng Yulai and Lan Fuzi did not stay in the hotel all the time, but instead experienced the customs and culture of the Douling Continent.

For Qiangu Qitian who has control over the element of space, it is extremely convenient for him to reach any place. Even if he is in the desert area in the central part of Douling Continent in the morning, the three of them can enjoy lunch in Tiandou City at noon.

At the same time, good news came from the Douling branch of the Spirit Pagoda: the mental potion that suppressed madness achieved the expected goal.

With Qiangu Qitian's lavish spending, the motivation unleashed by everyone made this project seem to have wings. Even though there were a few minor difficulties in the process, they were overcome with the efforts of the pharmacists.

At this time, on the third underground floor of Lingbo City's Spirit Tower, all the scientific researchers had happy smiles on their faces.

Their smiles could not hide their tiredness at the moment.

Tang Ziran and Lang Yue were also laughing.

A month of overwork made the two men, who were already looking old, look a few years older.

On the first day of their freedom, they contacted Mang Tian who was looking for them in Douling Continent.

After Tang Ziran briefly explained the situation to his good friend, he asked Mang Tian for the soul communication of his son Tang Wulin.

The couple couldn't wait to call their son via soul communication. The moment they heard Tang Wulin's voice, Tang Ziran and Lang Yue both cried with joy.

On the other side, Tang Wulin, who had been feeling a little depressed due to Gu Yuena's departure, cheered up again after hearing his parents' long-lost voices.

After hearing that Tang Wulin was admitted to Shrek Academy, the couple was even happier and felt that everything they had done was worth it.

At this time, Tang Ziran held his wife Langyue's hand, his voice trembling a little: "Wife, we can go home now, we can... go see Wulin."

As they spoke, the couple hugged each other and cried with joy.
