On this day, everyone was celebrating the same event.
The crisis of the Otherworld’s arrival was perfectly resolved in their hands.
They had triumphed over the Heavenly Dao.
They had perfectly illustrated the saying "Man can conquer nature."
Everyone involved felt immense pride and joy, and their happiness was not hidden, while the internet was filled with excited and moving messages.
After experiencing a calamity that could have changed society, it was rare for people both within and outside of Cathay to feel the same way at that moment.
No one noticed that something was amiss.
Even if someone was curious about why the vortex that had only been reversing slowly vanished with those from the Otherworld in an instant,
that curiosity was only momentary and quickly discarded to the back of their minds.
They did not think deeply, nor did they remember that someone also disappeared with the vortex as the boundary broke.
Samuel Chalmers sensed the joy of the people across the Nine Provinces, yet he did not feel at ease, with a part of his heart seemingly empty and unexplainable.
He did not know why this was, so he put away the half of the Vital Stone in his hand and said to Dashiell,
"Let’s go back."
Dashiell felt nothing was amiss either, responded, and was about to make his usual forward motion for someone to sit on him, as Samuel’s form had already turned into golden light returning to his body.
Dashiell remained in the posture of lowering his dragon body, feeling that something was different after the person left, but he still shook his head and swiftly headed towards Samuel’s true form, not forgetting to call,
"Callum, follow!"
Callum, expressionless, glanced at him and only replied, "Stop ordering me."
This incident consumed most of Samuel’s golden light, which would typically lead him to sleep and gather strength before awakening again. However, he inexplicably felt he should not fall into slumber.
Knowing many follow-up matters required attention in the Capital Metropolitan, Samuel still left the aftermath to Simon and himself returned with Dashiell to Sea City.
At the Chalmers Family residence in Sea City, it seemed there were still matters needing his attention.
He could not remember what those matters were, but Dashiell gave a hint,
"Is it about Qi Qi?"
He said,
"Senior Qi Qi’s demon soul was damaged during the battle with Shu’e in the Otherworld and is now still in a coma. Brother Samuel, didn’t you promise to help look after her?"
Dashiell was puzzled after he spoke.
Yes, who did Brother Samuel promise to help look after?
Hmm? Was he calling him Brother Samuel too naturally?
All because of Lucas Jennings.
The two said they were returning to the Chalmers Family in Sea City but landed at the Jennings Family.
Adam Jennings and his party were clearing the array they had set up together in the courtyard, surprised to see the two,
"Brother Samuel, Dashiell, why are you here?"
Lucas Jennings asked, as if realizing something, "You’re here to find Brother Donovan, right? Brother Donovan hasn’t returned yet!"
Samuel clearly understood that he was not here to find Donovan Jennings, but besides Donovan, who could he look for in the entire Jennings Family?
Without denying it, Samuel simply said,
"Got it."
Turning around, his form once again turned into golden light and disappeared.
Dashiell was stunned but still greeted Lucas Jennings and followed Samuel’s aura towards the Chalmers Family side.
After the two disappeared, in a room within the Jennings Family villa, Sophie Harper, cautiously peeked out with a little baby spirit.
Sophie Harper said, "Almost got discovered, the aura of that young master was so pure, I really wanted to make a contract with him~"
The little baby spirit shook its head seriously, saying,
"No! Impossible!"
As to why it was impossible, it didn’t know either.
Sophie grinned awkwardly, "I was just saying, I know that young master already has a Taoist couple."
But, who was that young master’s Taoist couple?
It’s been too long; she couldn’t remember.
