Doupo: Rebirth of Gu He, Starting with a Strategy to Win Over Yun Yun

Chapter 108 Tianfeng City, Qinglin’s Eighteenth BirthdaySeeing Qing Lin’s shocked little expression, Feng Qing’er couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.

Having spent these days together, she had long since come to regard Qing Lin as her own adorable little sister.

She couldn’t help but explain,

”The space wormhole in Tian Feng City was jointly created by two Dou Zun Experts, and its stability is truly astonishing. In all its years of use, there has never been a single space storm.”

”This has made the foot traffic in Tian Feng City within a thousand-mile radius nearly unrivaled by any other city.”

”Two Dou Zun... no wonder.” Hearing this news, Yun Yun finally had a sudden realization.

Back then, the scene of Gu He killing a Dou Zun had left such a powerful impact on her that she no longer felt Dou Zun were all that rare!

Had it been back when she didn’t know Gu He, a Dou Zun would have been quite unattainable!

Feng Qing’er touched the simple storage ring on her finger and couldn’t help but let out a smile.

Along the way, she had watched Gu He perform Alchemy, seen Xiao Yi Xian concoct poisons, admired Yun Yun practicing her swordsmanship, and accompanied Qing Lin to catch fish; looking at it this way, she seemed to have played no role in the team.

But now, in the face of the space-time black hole, she could finally be of use!

Feng Qing’er waved her hand grandly and walked ahead, leading Gu He and the others quickly up the stone stairs.

At the guard post in front of the space wormhole,

Just as Gu He pulled out some money, Feng Qing’er pressed down on his hand.

”Let me!”

These days of interaction had gradually smoothed over the arrogance in Feng Qing’er’s bones, making her more approachable.

Gu He shook his head. ”It’s not just the two of us boarding the ship.”

Gu He took out the money for five people and gave the toll to the guard.

Feng Qing’er pouted unwillingly.

Couldn’t he let her show off a bit!

But before entering the wormhole, Feng Qing’er’s lips curled up again,

”Gu He, you definitely don’t have this thing!”

Feng Qing’er took out a palm-sized, pale-gold small boat from her storage ring.

Gu He had seen this before; it was a transportation tool used for wormhole travel—a space ship.

When they first arrived in the Central Plains, they had also ridden in such a thing. The small boat in Feng Qing’er’s hand looked quite good in terms of material and appearance, likely costing a fortune.

”The price of this space ship is very expensive; I spent over six million gold coins to get it at an auction!”

Gu He nodded and praised, ”Very impressive!”

Feng Qing’er nodded proudly.

...

The five of them boarded the ship, and shortly after, the space ship started up.

In the pitch-black space tunnel, the sides were lined with spatial barriers condensed from spatial power.

Through the silver-white barriers, one’s gaze could penetrate into the endless dark Void Realm outside. This darkness seemed never-ending, sending a chilling shiver down one’s spine.

During the twenty-plus days of flight through the space tunnel, the group took turns operating the space ship.

Xiao Yi Xian had now advanced to the rank of Dou Huang, so controlling the bow of the space ship was no longer a difficult task for her.

Because of this, she earned several starry-eyed looks from Qing Lin.

...

Suddenly, space trembled, and a brilliant silver light burst forth.

Gu He’s gaze turned toward the massive silver halo in the distance, and he couldn’t help but let out a faint smile.

”Pill Domain, Three Thousand Burning Flame, I have arrived...”

...

Space Plaza.

Here lay a vast gravel plaza, with a massive stone platform standing in its center.

At the very top of the platform, a huge pitch-black wormhole, seemingly dozens of feet wide, was slowly rotating, with startling spatial fluctuations constantly leaking out.

”Puff! Puff!”

The silence of the gravel plaza lasted for a while before several low sounds suddenly rang out.

Along with these sounds, waves of violent spatial fluctuations appeared at the wormhole, and figures flashed out one after another, landing upon the broad plaza.

”Whew~ I can finally see the blue sky again~!” Qing Lin took a deep breath of the fresh outside air and pulled on Gu He’s finger as if she had been liberated.

Qing Lin turned her head and asked her Sister Feng Qing’er, ”Sister Qingqing, is this the Pill Domain that Master spoke of?”

”No, it’s not.” Feng Qing’er shook her head and explained:

”This is just the central region of the Central Plains, also known to the outside world as the Central Region. The Pill Domain is actually located at the core of the Central Region.”

”Central Region.” Qing Lin was dazed. ”What kind of place is that?”

Feng Qing’er was very familiar with these things and spoke of them like she was counting her own treasures,

”If the Central Plains is the center of the Fighting Qi Continent, then this Central Region is the center of the Central Plains.”

”Many well-known top-tier factions have their headquarters established within the Central Region.”

Feng Qing’er’s voice rang like a bell as she continued, ”We are currently in the southwestern part of the Central Region.”

”In this area, the most famous factions are none other than Sound Valley and Burning Flame Valley; they could be called the Dominators of this region.”

”Of course, besides these two major powers, there are many other factions of various sizes, but compared to Sound Valley and Burning Flame Valley, their strength is far inferior.”

”We’re essentially transferring now; in a moment, we’ll set off for Tian Huang City. Tian Huang City in the Central Region has a space wormhole that leads to the Pill Domain.”

”In Tian Huang City, various factions are as lush as a forest.”

”Among them, the most prominent are undoubtedly the two great families—the Liu Family and the Cheng Family. The influence of these two families in Tian Huang City is unmatched, and their strength is considered the greatest; of course, they certainly can’t compare to Burning Flame Valley.”

Qing Lin nodded twice, feeling quite confused.

Feng Qing’er thought Gu He would immediately take everyone to Tian Huang City, but to her surprise, he announced that he would take everyone to eat something delicious.

...

After the five of them had played for a whole day.

Night.

In the large house Gu He had rented,

Qing Lin held a plate of sliced fruit, preparing to go to Gu He’s room to give it to her Master.

To her surprise,

”Eh? Why aren’t the lights on in Master’s room?”

”Did Master go out?” Qing Lin wondered.

She took small steps, holding the fruit plate in one hand and pushing open the mahogany door with the other.

*Creak~*

The sound of the door opening rang out.

Immediately after,

”Qing Lin, happy birthday!”

”Qing Lin, happy birthday~!”

”You’re a big girl now~~”

The Moonlight Gems in the room emitted a dazzling light, as Yun Yun, Xiao Yi Xian, and Feng Qing’er all offered their blessings to Qing Lin.

On the large table in front of Qing Lin sat a big birthday cake.

On the cake, a scene of the group playing together was drawn in cream.

And Gu He also stepped out from behind the others.

”Qing Lin, happy Coming-of-age Day.”

As his voice fell, Qing Lin was already sobbing uncontrollably.

Her beautiful little face crumpled, looking like a broken doll.

But then, she broke into a wide smile.

After a brief moment of being stunned, an overflowing warmth and sweetness flooded her heart.

This was a scene she hadn’t dared to imagine since she was a child.

Her light-green collar was already wet with her tears, and Xiao Yi Xian quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe them away.

”Wuwu...” Qing Lin’s sobbing was unstoppable.

She was moved, moved beyond words.

She hadn’t known her birthday before; later, seeing other children celebrate theirs and looking so happy, she had been very envious and secretly pestered people to ask about her birthday.

But at the mention of her ”sinful” birth, no one paid her any mind. In the end, she learned of her birth date from an old nanny.

But even after knowing it, she didn’t have the heart to celebrate it—because she was an unblessed snake-person hybrid.

But Gu He had appeared, Sister Xiao Yi Xian had appeared...

Qing Lin looked at Master Gu He, who had also come over to wipe her tears, and smiled with true sincerity.

”Thank you...”

After a long while, Qing Lin blossomed into a smile as bright as a sunflower.
