Chapter 478: Master and Disciple Separation! Dugu Bo and Xiao Zi's Concern!
Dugu Bo's body flashed and he rushed towards the place where he usually taught Xiao Zi how to refine medicine.
Soon.
He then saw Xiao Zi concentrating on refining medicine in an open space in the forest.
Under the control of her soul power, various herbs were systematically refined and fused, and her body emitted light beams of various colors from time to time.
Dugu Bo's figure quietly appeared at the edge of the forest. He quietly looked at Xiao Zi's busy figure, his heart full of complicated emotions.
After a long time, he walked over slowly.
Xiao Zi heard the footsteps and raised her head. When she saw Dugu Bo, a bright smile appeared on her face:
"Master, why are you here?"
Dugubo said:
"Xiao Zi, how's your practice going?"
Ouyang Zi said happily:
"It went very smoothly. There were some wrong configurations and after re-refining it less than 10 times, the correct formula was found!"
Dugu Bo forced out a smile and said to Ouyang Zi:
"Xiao Zi, master has something to tell you."
Xiao Zi blinked her eyes, stopped her movements obediently, and stood up:
"Master, what's the matter?"
Dugu Bo took a deep breath and looked into the distance:
"Master is going to the Spirit Hall with Zhuge Lan."
Xiao Zi's eyes widened instantly, her face full of disbelief:
"Martial Soul Hall? Master, that is a dangerous place. Why do you want to go there suddenly?"
Then Xiao Zi said with a slightly trembling voice:
"This Wuhun Palace... he just attacked our home... putting my family in danger of being wiped out. Master, don't go!"
Dugu Bo sighed:
"I know that Wuhun Palace has become more and more domineering over the years and has done many shady things. This time they used another bad trick. They kidnapped one of Zhuge Lan's friends, and we had to go meet them."
Xiao Zi anxiously grabbed Dugu Bo's sleeve:
"But master, that's too dangerous. There are many masters in Wuhun Palace. What if something happens to you? I don't want you to go."
Dugu Bo gently patted Xiao Zi's hand:
"Xiao Zi, there are some things that the master must do. This is the master's responsibility. The master cannot just watch Wuhun Temple do whatever he wants and ignore it."
Xiao Zi's eyes turned red:
"But Master, I can't bear to leave you. I don't want you to take risks. It's too dangerous..."
Dugu Bo's eyes softened:
"Xiao Zi, Master can't bear to leave you. But if we don't stop Wuhun Palace, more people will be in danger in the future."
Xiao Zi bit her lip:
"Then master, you must be careful. You must come back safely."
Dugu Bo nodded:
"Master will do it. Xiao Zi, you must take good care of yourself during the time when Master is away. Continue to study the art of refining medicine and don't be lazy."
Xiao Zi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes:
"I understand, master. I will work hard to refine the medicine. When you come back, I will definitely refine a better poison."
Dugubo smiled and said:
"Okay, master believes in you. You are master's favorite disciple."
Xiao Zi suddenly remembered something and took out a small bottle from her body:
"Master, this is my newly refined healing medicine. I tried it. The effect is several times better than the ordinary healing medicine. It can also restore a little soul power. Master, please bring it with you. Maybe it will be useful. ”
Dugu Bo took the bottle and looked at Xiao Zi's serious look, feeling moved in his heart:
"Xiao Zi, thank you."
Xiao Zi shook her head, walked forward and hugged Dugu Bo:
"Master, this is what I should do. You must come back safely. I will always be here waiting for you."
Dugu Bo stroked Xiao Zi's head, tears streaming down his face:
"Xiao Zi, if you encounter any difficulties or danger while the master is away, you should go find your clan leader or Bai Chenxiang, do you understand?"
Xiao Zi nodded:
"I understand, Master."
Dugu Bo warned again:
"Also, when refining medicine, you should pay attention to the combination of heat and herbs, and don't rush for success, you know?"
Xiao Zi said obediently:
"I remember, Master."
Dugu Bo was silent for a moment, and then said slowly:
"Xiao Zi, if the master can't come back..."
Xiao Zi immediately covered Dugu Bo's mouth:
"Master, don't say such things. You will come back safely."
Dugu Bo smiled:
"Okay, master, let's stop talking. Xiao Zi, you have to be strong and face it bravely no matter what happens."
Xiao Zi nodded vigorously:
"I will, master."
Dugu Bo took one last look at Xiao Zi, turned around and prepared to leave.
Xiao Zi shouted loudly from behind:
"Master, you must come back safely!"
Dugu Bo didn't look back, just waved his hand, and his figure gradually disappeared into the forest.
Xiao Zi looked at the direction Dugu Bo was leaving and couldn't help but shed tears.
She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that the master would return safely.
Dugu Bo drifted away in the forest, his figure looking a little lonely under the shadow of the mottled trees.
His steps were heavy but firm, and every step was so difficult.
His heart felt like an ocean was turning upside down.
Xiao Zi's innocent face kept reappearing in his mind, and the words "Master" seemed to still echo in his ears.
How he wished he could stay with Xiao Zi forever, watching her grow from an ignorant child to a graceful young lady, watching her achieve success in martial arts, and watching her find her own happiness.
After a while, Xiao Zi wiped away her tears and returned to her position to make medicine.
She opened the medicine furnace and continued to make medicine. She knew that she couldn't let her master down.
She had to work hard to improve her medicine making skills.
When the master came back, she would give him a surprise.
Dugu Bo caught up with Zhuge Lan.
Zhuge Lan looked at his haggard face and knew at a glance that he had experienced sadness. He couldn't help but shook his head.
He sighed and patted Dugu Bo on the shoulder. He comforted Dugu Bo:
"Old Poison, I know you can't bear to leave Xiao Zi. It's rare to have such a little girl by your side. You have already treated her as your daughter. But we are going to the Spirit Hall for justice and to save my friends. Don't worry, we will be safe. I guarantee it with my life, Zhuge Lan."
Zhuge Lan's eyes were like bright stars, revealing an unwavering light.
Dugu Bo raised his head slightly and took a deep breath. His weather-beaten face was full of complicated expressions.
After a while, he nodded slightly:
"Of course I believe you, but Xiao Zi is suffering. She is still so young and has to worry about me."
The words were full of love and guilt for Xiao Zi.
"She is very sensible and strong. You should believe her."
Zhuge Lan's voice was steady and powerful.
The two stopped talking, but their steps unconsciously accelerated, and they resolutely moved towards the direction of the Spirit Hall. (End of this chapter)
