Celestial 'War God' Return

Tang Xiao’s eyes lit up upon hearing that, and he immediately opened the map to see the location Xiao Ai had pointed out. "Oh? Shangguan Qingyue hid Huo Mianmian not far from the Shangguan Clan?"

[That’s right, Master. As for the woman monitoring them, you can see the data yourself.]

Tang Xiao immediately checked and found that the woman was named Rou Lan. "Who exactly is this woman? Why is she monitoring the Shangguan Clan?"

"Who are Shangguan Qingyue and Huo Mianmian, husband?" Yi An asked Tang Xiao. She and Ouyang Qing want to know the identities of the two women.

Tang Xiao looked at Yi An and Ouyang Qing, telling them the identities of the two women.

"Why is Shangguan Qingyue so cruel?" Yi An asked with a frown.

Ouyang Qing added. "She did something like that to Huo Mianmian, and she intended to do something to Aunt Qingge."

"Haha," Tang Xiao felt strange hearing that from Ouyang Qing’s mouth. "Aren’t you the same as her in the past, Qing’er? You framed me and made me spend several years in prison, remember?"

Ouyang Qing lowered her head, not daring to look at Tang Xiao.

"Forget it, it’s all in the past." Tang Xiao squeezed her breasts. "Shangguan Qingyue was much more evil than you, and she did that kind of thing to Huo Mianmian because of jealousy. Her aunt ordered her to seduce me, but she couldn’t accept a polygamous relationship, so she wanted to get rid of Qingge and the others first."

Yi An leaned closer to his chest. "Are all cultivators that cruel, husband?"

"Whether they are cultivators or ordinary people makes no difference; some of them are evil, but some of them are good." Tang Xiao sighed. "Shangguan Qingyue is one of those evil cultivators. Since she had the intention to harm Qingge and the others, I must give her a severe punishment. However, the Shangguan and Song Clans are powerful, and I can’t fight them with my current strength, so I must find allies to face them."

Yi An looked up at him. "So you want to free Huo Mianmian and pull her Huo Clan to your side, right?"

"The Huo Clan isn’t a big clan, and they don’t have the strength to fight the Song and Shangguan Clan." Tang Xiao paused. "However, Huo Mianmian’s fiancé comes from a big clan, and the Dugu Clan is stronger than those two clans, so I want to get their support."

"How are you going to get their support? You previously said that Huo Mianmian has been missing for so many years, so her relationship with her fiancé should have ended long ago."

Tang Xiao smiled at Yi An. "Although Huo Mianmian has been missing for a long time, the Huo Clan has a good relationship with the Dugu Clan, and Dugu Jiuyou respects her family very much. If I can save her and bring her back to them, I’m sure he and his Dugu Clan will side with me."

"Oh." Yi An nodded in understanding. "Since Xiao Ai has found Huo Mianmian’s location, you must immediately go save her husband. I’m afraid that Shangguan Qingyue will use more vicious methods to harm Mu Qingge and the others, and they will suffer because of it, so you must stop her."

"You’re right." Tang Xiao kissed Yi An and Ouyang Qing before coming out of the hot spring to get dressed. "I’ll go save Huo Mianmian now, and you two can wait for me back in the room."

After Tang Xiao left, Yi An looked at her daughter. "What are you thinking, Qing’er?"

"I’m thinking about him, Mom." Ouyang Qing leaned her head on her mother’s shoulder. "Even though we’ve been together for quite a while, I feel like he still hates me because of my past actions."

Yi An could also sense that Tang Xiao hadn’t completely forgiven her daughter, and he treated her differently from her. "You have to be patient for now, Qing’er. Sooner or later, he will forgive you, and your relationship will change by then."

"I hope you’re right, Mom." Ouyang Qing looked up. "Have you ever thought about having children with him?"

Yi An nodded without hesitation. "Since I have chosen him as my husband, I, of course, want to have children with him. However, I know that he doesn’t want to have children yet, so I will be patient until he is ready to have them."

"I see." Ouyang Qing nodded in understanding. "I also want to have children with him, Mom. However, our relationship will be weird if we both have children from him."

"That’s true." Yi An also found it strange. "My child with him will be your sibling, and your child with him will be my grandchild. Compared to our relationship with him, his relationship with Tang Yin is the strangest."

Ouyang Qing agreed with her mother. After all, Tang Xiao and Tang Yin were siblings, so she felt it was strange for the two of them to have a child.

"Let’s go back and wait for him to come back in the room."

"Okay."

Meanwhile, Tang Xiao had arrived at the Shangguan Clan, but he was still hiding in the void while looking at the system map. "Hey! Luckily, I have Xiao Ai and the ark, or I wouldn’t have been able to find Huo Mianmian so quickly."

After he confirmed the location of Shangguan Qingyue and the clan members, Tang Xiao hurriedly went to a simple house that was a little remote.

The old woman was shocked when she saw Tang Xiao walk out from the void, but then he pressed his index finger to his lips, signaling her not to scream.

The old woman shook her head and pointed at her mouth, making Tang Xiao realize that she was mute.

"Was it the Shangguan Clan people who made you mute?" The old woman shook her head at Tang Xiao. "Old lady, I came here to save Huo Mianmian."

Hearing that, the old woman’s eyes lit up. She grabbed Tang Xiao’s hand and dragged him into Huo Mianmian’s room.

After they arrived at the room, the old woman pointed at Huo Mianmian while looking at Tang Xiao with a pleading look.

Tang Xiao’s expression turned soft. "You care so much for Huo Mianmian, Old Lady."

The old woman signaled Tang Xiao to take Huo Mianmian away quickly; she feared that Shangguan Qingyue or the people from the Shangguan Clan would notice his arrival.

"Since you’ve been taking care of Huo Mianmian for so many years, I’ll take you with us, and you can stay by her side after that." The old woman refused Tang Xiao with a shake of her head. "Listen to me, Old Lady. If I take her away and leave you here, they’ll punish you severely, and they might even kill you."

The old woman’s face turned pale after Tang Xiao’s warning, and she feared that Shangguan Qingyue would punish her.

"It’s okay, you’ll be safe with me, and I’ll take you both away from this kingdom soon." Tang Xiao walked over to Huo Mianmian, who looked at him blankly. "Young Miss Huo, I’ll take you away from this place, and I’ll send you back to your family once you’ve recovered."

After he carried Huo Mianmian on his back, Tang Xiao approached the old woman and took the two women away from the place.

.

.

.

The old woman was shocked once Tang Xiao brought them into the ark, but since he was mute, she couldn’t ask him about the place.

"This is my private place, and no one can enter without my permission." The old woman simply nodded and followed Tang Xiao onto the flying car. "Old Lady, I’ll strengthen your body later, and you can serve Huo Mianmian longer."

The old woman wanted to refuse Tang Xiao, but then she looked at Huo Mianmian. She had taken care of her for several years and had grown fond of her, which made the old woman reluctant to part with her.

.

.

.

Soon, they arrived at the laboratory, and Xiao Ai was already waiting for them there.

Tang Xiao placed Huo Mianmian in one capsule first, and he helped the old woman into the other capsule afterward. "Xiao Ai, you must strengthen this old lady’s body so she can serve Huo Mianmian longer."

"Leave everything to me, Master."

Thereafter, Xiao Ai started to operate both capsules at the same time. She could immediately improve the old woman’s condition, but she had to check Huo Mianmian’s situation first.

"Did you find anything strange in her body?"

"I found something inside her body, but it wasn’t dangerous, and it just suppressed her memory." Tang Xiao frowned. "Shangguan Qingyue used a liquid to suppress Huo Mianmian’s memory, so she became like a doll. It’s not a big deal for me since it’s only low grade, and I can remove it from her body easily."

"That’s good."

While waiting for the process to complete, Tang Xiao thought of several other plans. He used his clone to contact Situ Lingxim, and she informed him that she would arrive at the Taixu Kingdom tomorrow morning.

Situ Lingxi was overjoyed when Tang Xiao told her that he would visit her soon, but he didn’t tell her about Huo Mianmian, and he would tell her when they met.

After waiting for a while, the first capsule finally opened, and Tang Xiao helped the old woman out from inside.

The old woman looked at him gratefully, as she could feel her body was much better than before.

An hour later, the other capsule also opened, and Tang Xiao could see that Huo Mianmian’s eyes were no longer blank, which proved that her condition had returned to normal.

Despite her previous state, Huo Mianmian was able to recognize Tang Xiao. She hurriedly sat down and spoke. "Thank you for saving me, Brother."
