The Divine Physician's Overbearing Wife

Chapter 1996: Leaving the Mountain

“Xia Xia...”

On top of the mountain...

A familiar voice came from behind Xia Xia.

Xia Xia turned to look and saw Tang Yin behind her.

Tang Yin was a little heartbroken as she looked at Xia Xia’s current state, but she also understood Xia Xia’s worry at this moment.

However, thinking of the news just received, Tang Yin could not help but rush up to Xia Xia.

“There is news just now from Spirit Beast Mountain. It may be related to your parents, but I’m still not clear about it. I am waiting for the people from Tianya’s manor to send a message.”

Tang Yin raised his hand and touched Xia Xia’s head.

‘Five years have passed...

‘Xia Xia has also grown up quite a bit, but Xiao Qing... When she will return...’

Tang Yin lowered her gaze, hiding the worry in her eyes; a touch of helplessness flashed across her delicate and pretty little face.

“Really?”

Xia Xia’s eyes lit up for a moment, looking at Tang Yin unblinkingly.

Tang Yin nodded. “When have I ever lied to you? Xiao Qing is so powerful she will be fine. Moreover, the vixen is protecting her.”

Hearing these words, Xia Xia’s heart that was tense these days, suddenly felt relieved. She smiled happily, and her eyes lit up as bright as stars.

‘Aunt Tang never lies...

‘That means...

‘Mother has come back?’

This news filled her heart with joy as she headed down the mountain.

“Xia Xia, where are you going?”

“I want to go home.”

Like a little butterfly, Xia Xia fluttered toward the mountain’s base.

Tang Yin looked at this little one and shook her head helplessly. She then stood up and followed her smilingly.

Just thinking of the news that came today, she could not help but smile happily. Her big beautiful eyes shined as brightly as the sun...

***

Nine Gate was huge. Tang Yin and Xia Xia rarely left the mountain, so they did not know where to go.

Tang Yin scratched her head and looked sideways at Xia Xia. “How about... We wait for Venerable Qiu Hui to come back before we go?”

“I want to see Mother!”

Xia Xia was firm and stubborn.

She had not seen her father and mother for a long time!

She was like an abandoned child, living alone in this strange place.

If Tang Yin did not let her go home, she would rather go back to Tianya’s manor alone and wait there than stay in this strange Nine Gate.

However...

‘Just now, Aunt Tang said, there’s news from Spirit Beast Mountain. Maybe... Father and Mother are back?’

This news filled Xia Xia with joy. How could she continue to stay in this place?

Her heart had long drifted back to Tianya’s manor, no longer willing to stay a moment longer in Nine Gate.

Tang Yin looked at Xia Xia and did not stop her.

‘Xia Xia has not seen Xiao Qing for many years. It’s normal if she wants to find her now...

‘No need to stop her.’

“Then, let’s go. I haven’t seen Xiao Qing for a long time either.”

“Mhmm!” Xia Xia nodded slightly. She paused again and asked, “Aunt Tang, where is Uncle Nalan?”

“Oh, don’t mind him. We can find Xiao Qing by ourselves.”

Tang Yin pouted and said unconcernedly.

Along the way, the people of Nine Gate were polite to Xia Xia and Tang Yin. All knew Xia Xia’s status within Nine Gate.

Xia Xia had not been in contact with people for many years, so she was quite uncomfortable seeing these enthusiastic female disciples.

Those female disciples all walked together, but they did not dare to get too close to Xia Xia. They only dared to look at her from a distance with a certain glint in their eyes.
