Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1722: Quite well-thought-out

He could finally leave. He let out a sigh of relief, and at the same time, what made him happiest was that Xiang Qiyan was finally about to bounce back to life again.

This trip was not in vain after all.

…

In Mo Zheng’s room, Xuanyuan Zimo looked somewhat troubled at his senior brother.

“Senior brother, once we’re back at the Sect, how will you explain this to the Revered Master?”

They had already received the message, they would set off tomorrow. With Gu Qingyu dead, the senior brother would definitely not be able to explain it to the Great Elder, and they didn’t know what kind of measures the Great Elder would have waiting for them once they returned to the Sect.

“I’ll say what needs to be said, there’s nothing to hide.”

Mo Zheng spoke indifferently, not feeling that there was anything difficult to explain. Gu Qingyu’s death was her own making, what did it have to do with them?

The key issue now was not how he would explain to the Great Elder but how their Qingyun Sect was going to explain to Lord Yan.

“We’ll talk about it once we get back.”

Hearing his words, Xuanyuan Zimo didn’t dare to say anything more.

This matter was indeed quite tricky, Gu Qingyu was dead, but the trouble it caused Mo Zheng was not small either.

Of course, this was her concern because she did not know about the conversation between Mo Zheng and Zhan Beiye; if she had known, she certainly would not have worried and would only feel happy instead.

…

On the ship, up on the deck.

Xiang Qiyan finally had the strength to speak, allowing Su Tang to support him to come out and look at the ocean before him.

“Lord, your body has not yet recovered, shall I help you back to rest?” Although Su Tang could not persuade his lord and was forced to help him come out to see the sea, he was still worried and tried to convince him all the way.

“I’m not tired.”

Xiang Qiyan said softly to him.

“Go and bring a chair for me.”

He wanted to sit down and be still, to think about how he should act next to completely eradicate the forces of his ‘good’ younger brother.

He had raised him, in those royal families tainted by power, where people wished death upon their own brothers just to grow safely; he thought there had always been some familial feelings between them.

Who would have thought that Xiang Qifeng would strike at him with such ruthlessness? Now that he thought about it, he really did feel ridiculous.

“Sit.”

Zhan Beiye quietly placed a chair behind Xiang Qiyan and said softly.

“Su Tang, go and attend to your own duties, I will accompany your lord here for a while.”

Su Tang looked at Zhan Beiye, then at his own lord who was weak enough to need assistance, and finally grit his teeth. He helped Xiang Qiyan to sit down, then turned and walked away.

“Can’t make sense of it?”

Only the two of them remained on the deck, Zhan Beiye asked him in a light voice.

“It makes pretty good sense to me.”

Xiang Qiyan too responded lightly, as if he hadn’t been betrayed by the person he thought closest to him.

Having skirted the edge of life and death, what was there left to not understand? Perhaps only those not entangled in interests could maintain a good relationship with him, right?

“I really do have to thank you all for picking up this wretched life of mine.”

When he first returned to Huayan Peak, he had intended to leave some last words, having suffered such severe injuries and poisoned to the core, even he had thought there was no hope, no chance of survival.

He never expected that he would pick up a lease on life again, and here he was, alive and chatting with Zhan Beiye on this ship.

“You should thank An Jiuyue, without her, you would have truly been done for,” Zhan Beiye said candidly, as he hadn’t done much except exert some strength.
