Chapter 84 An Unforeseen Event on the Road

Dugu Muyou heard the discussion around her. Most of them were blaming her for being an arrogant smart a*s. But she must do the same even if everyone present came to oppose her.

The members who participated in the group training were mixed with different identities. Dugu Muyou didn't think it would be good for the Dugu Family to train with a group of delicate princes and princesses. Maybe they had to spend more time taking care of the nobles' mood than training.

Moreover, the group training was not applicable for everyone. It would do no good for her, but it would waste her time. If she participated in it, how could she accomplish the one-year promise between her and Nangong Xun? When could she break through the Realm barrier and return to her original world to get revenge?

Dugu Muyou would not compromise this time, even if she would fall out with the Dugu Family or get kicked out finally.

Dugu Zhong watched everyone's reaction with satisfaction. He coughed lightly to signal everyone to be quiet and then said pityingly to Dugu Muyou, "Muyou, I'll forgive your rudeness this time as long as you can admit your mistake in public. Remember this lesson and keep humble and prudent from now on, and in this way, you won't make the same mistake again."

Facing the various gazes of others, Dugu Muyou stood upright in the hall and spoke loudly, "I will not participate in group training no matter what you say."

"As***le!" Dugu Zhong scolded, "How does your mother teach you that you become so rude now?"

Dugu Muyou frowned. It would be nothing if Dugu Zhong had just scolded her. However, it annoyed her that he even got Liu Pianpian involved.

"Master Dugu, calm down, please." The Fifth Prince said, "Actually, I think it feasible. Miss Muyou is talented and is indeed not suitable for ordinary training methods. Why not just obey her and give her the head? She may make faster progress."

The Fifth Prince smiled at Dugu Muyou after finishing his words.

Although Dugu Zhong felt disgruntled, he did not want to go against the will of the Fifth Prince as the latter put in a word for Dugu Muyou. He no longer gave Dugu Muyou any glance and wanted to switch his words.

"So..."

"Daddy, since Muyou is so confident in herself, she must have her unique training methods, so why not let her take a few more people away?" Dugu Piaopiao significantly glanced at the five people behind Dugu Muyou, "I heard that she wanted to accept those five people as her subordinates, so it's better to let Muyou train them. Presumably, they will also be very willing to follow her."

Upon hearing Dugu Piaopiao's words, another person stepped forward. It was Dugu Herong.

"I also agree with Piaopiao's opinion. It's better to arrange it like this. Perhaps it is more efficient for Sister Muyou. As for the resources offered during the training, Sister Muyou probably doesn't need them either."

A hint of sly look flashed in Dugu Herong's eyes. He held the same idea as Dugu Piaopiao.

Weren't those five people close to Dugu Muyou? He would let them lose their qualification to participate in the group training. In this way, they all would feel unwilling and have a grudge against Dugu Muyou. He would see how she would deal with those five people and get resources to train them!

Dugu Zhong pondered for a moment, seeming to be thinking about it. The Fifth Prince did not say a word either.

Dugu Qinglan stepped forward and said, "I think it okay to let Muyou train them, but the resources need to be provided."

Dugu Piaopiao curled up her lips, "Dugu Muyou must have no interest in such few resources."

"Since you all have said so, I also think the arrangement is good." Dugu Muyou said with an indifferent expression, "You don't have to offer us resources. I have my way."

As soon as Dugu Muyou finished her words, Dugu Zhong narrowed his eyes, "Okay, as you wish."

"Thank you, daddy, for your agreement." Dugu Muyou turned around and said to the five people, "Let's go."

Dugu Xiaotong and the other four had been paying attention to the things happening in the hall and being anxious for Dugu Muyou. Later, when they heard that they were asked to withdraw from training, they became happy secretly instead of hesitating. They knew that Dugu Herong had been watching for his chance. Now he would have fewer chances to pick on them because they didn't have to participate in the group training.

The five people immediately followed Dugu Muyou. Seeing the smiles on their faces, the people around couldn't help being a little surprised. Was it not a significant loss for them? Why could they keep their smiles?

Dugu Zhong gloomily watched Dugu Muyou leave and began to talk about the specific arrangements for group training.

Thinking of what would happen next, Xiaotong became excited and asked cheerfully, "What are we going to do next?"

"Well." Dugu Muyou smiled and answered, "Go back and continue to deal with the herbs."

"Ah?"

At this time, Xiaotong and the other four could not help but look at each other. Dealing with herbs was just an odd job. Did Dugu Muyou never plan to train them?

"How to get pills for your cultivation without dan cultivation?"

"Do you mean..." Dugu Qi asked incredulously.

Xiaotong gave her a stare and said, "Sister Qi, don't you get it? The boss meant to offer us pills."

Thinking of the large number of herbs they bought back and that some of the herbs would be for them, Xiaotong felt as if he had seen a pill hill fall and bury him inside. The others suddenly felt a little guilty for having doubted Dugu Muyou's intentions. They then followed her back obediently.

After arriving at Youshui Garden, they directly went into the Dan Cultivation Room. With five people's help, Dugu Muyou could leave most tasks to them and only needed to pay attention to the most critical steps of dan cultivation, which significantly promoted her efficiency.

On the third day, Dugu Muyou's dan cultivation level reached the fifth level. She refined the Huanxu Repair Pill for Dugu Ziteng and rebuilt his foundation with the Yuehua Diamond.

"How do you feel?" Dugu Muyou asked.

Dugu Ziteng felt the spiritual qi in his body, and a wisp of vine-like black spiritual qi appeared on his fingertips as he thought so.

"You did it!"

Dugu Ziteng felt so moved. Others could not understand his mood when his foundation was destroyed. And he even got satirized by Dugu Yaoyao at that time. If it were not for his willpower and stubbornness, he would have gone to commit suicide long before.

"I didn't expect that I could experience this feeling again!"

Dugu Ziteng freely used his spiritual qi to feel the familiarity it brought.

Dugu Muyou smiled and said, "Now that your strength has recovered. I have a task needing your help."

"Miss Muyou, I'm listening."

"I want to refine an important pill, but I still lack the herb Ghost Weeping Orchid. Next, when I upgrade my dan cultivation level, please bring Xiaotong and Deyuan to the East Market, the black market, and auctions to look for the herb. Pay attention, and as long as you find Ghost Weeping Orchid, please buy it at all costs."

"I got it." Dugu Ziteng replied solemnly, "I will get it done."

Dugu Muyou shook her head, "It's up to fortune whether you can make it. I'm afraid it's hard to find this herb. Please try your best. It's good if you can buy it smoothly. In addition, please take care of yourself. Don't get deeply involved with the fight with others. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Do you remember?"

Dugu Ziteng was stunned. He knew that Dugu Muyou specially said it to him. He did want to get revenge for a lot of things.

"I knew. I won't act on impulse."

"Okay, you can set off right now. Don't worry. The delayed days will be made up soon."

Today was the first day of the group training. Those of the Dugu Family who participated had packed up. They were going to a closed place to train. No one had told them the location yet.

Dugu Piaopiao looked in the direction of Youshui Garden, and a maid was whispering in her ear.

"Miss Muyou and her men did nothing but kept doing dan cultivation in the compound."

"Dan cultivation?" Dugu Piaopiao smiled and waved her hand, "Watch them and tell me in detail when I come back."

After the maid left, Dugu Yaoyao stepped forward and said, "I thought she would have some means. However, she just has been doing dan cultivation. Dan cultivation can never get promoted overnight. It won't have any effect even if she slogs away at practicing it for ten more years."

"I will see what she on earth is going to do." Dugu Piaopiao's eyes kindled with anger.

With a light flashing in her eyes, Dugu Yaoyao suddenly said slyly, "The Fifth Prince will personally supervise the group training this time, and therefore, you will have many opportunities to meet him."

Dugu Piaopiao seemed to feel shy with a blush.

"Stop talking nonsense. Get in the wagon quickly."

Dugu Piaopiao turned around and jumped into the wagon. Dugu Yaoyao followed her.

After everyone arrived, the coachman flicked his whip, and the spiritual animal wagon drove forward.

Dugu Ziteng walked alone on the street. Xiaotong, Deyuan, and he separated into two parties after receiving the order from Dugu Muyou. He took care of the auction and the black market, while Xiaotong and Deyuan stayed together in the East Market.

It was the first time Dugu Ziteng had walked down the street since his foundation had got restored. It was amazing that his mood now was completely different from the past. He had wanted to seek his way in the house and get the promotion to reach the peak step by step. Now, he no longer thought so much about these things but just hoped that he could live well under the blue sky and white clouds. The only thing he stuck to was revenge.

Dugu Ziteng frowned when he heard a sudden clamor behind him. It was always crowded on the streets of the capital of Jinnan Kingdom, but it was infrequent to have such a loud noise.

"Get out of the way! It is the spiritual animal wagon of the royal family. You have no way to get reasonable compensation even if being hit by it."

"Ah! My apples are all spilled!"

"Go and quickly get out of the way! You even still care about the apple. Care about your life first!"

The spiritual animal wagon's speed was so fast that was much quicker than ordinary people's wagons. Naturally, it was more challenging to drive a spiritual animal wagon so its coachmen should know how to control spiritual animals. Spiritual animal wagons were for the most powerful and influential people, those from the royal family or the great family of cultivators, or at least the established cultivators. For example, Dugu Ziteng never had the opportunity to ride a spiritual animal wagon. He took a horse-drawn wagon when he came to the capital.

Dugu Ziteng got to the side of the road like everyone else, waiting for the team of spiritual animal wagons to pass.

"Doudou, come back!"

A sharp cry sounded, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice.

They saw a woman holding a child in her arms and one on her back. She was crying and struggling to rush out, but the people around firmly caught her.

Not far from the woman, a young girl was standing in the middle of the road, with her head up and her thumb in her mouth, keeping a curious look. A spiritual animal wagon was rushing over!

Dugu Ziteng's pupils shrank. With a black light, he disappeared from where he stood in a flash.

The coachman on the spiritual animal wagon had just seen the little girl in the middle of the road.

"D*mn it."

He cursed while pulling the reins vigorously. However, the spiritual animal wagon ran so fast that it was impossible to stop at such a close distance. It was only a matter of time before the little girl was crushed to death.

"What's the matter?" Dugu Piaopiao indifferently asked when she heard the noise.

Dugu Yaoyao opened the door of the spiritual animal wagon and looked out.

"A child is standing in the middle of the road." Dugu Yaoyao said with a smile, and her tone was as casual as ever.

"Oh." Dugu Piaopiao answered casually, feeling disinterested.
