"Qianye, you all go back first, we can handle it here," Mo Jingchuan, seeing Dugu Qianye standing there in a daze, thought she was tired from the battle and told her to head back first.
Dugu Qianye nodded and said to the jubilantly feasting Vine Emperor, "Hurry back later!" Then she rode away on Xiaohuo.
The Vine Emperor, too engrossed in its joyous feast, had entirely forgotten Dugu Qianye's presence and naturally didn't hear what she said. By the time it finished eating, Dugu Qianye's voice and figure were nowhere to be found.
"Where's the master? Why did the master leave? How do I get back without the master? Master! Master!" The Vine Emperor cried out in a panic, but Dugu Qianye was already too far away to hear. Even if she did hear, she would not have paid any attention.
Meanwhile, Ci Hun was speeding through the air with Zi Xiao.
"I say, you're finally willing to go back and lift the seal!" Ci Hun yelled excitedly. "I'm finally about to regain my power, hahaha!"
