Obsessively Raised by My Doll 191

Chapter 191

The sedan chair bearers who had originally been preparing to lift the sedan chair were stunned for a moment when they saw that the bride had not gotten into the bridal sedan chair, and were at a loss.

“Just carry the empty sedan chair. Follow the two of them,” Lu He said with a smile, having chased after them and seen this scene.

And so, the procession of the bride’s escort beat drums and gongs and walked a large circle around the capital of the Shan Kingdom before finally heading towards Lu Dieqing and Zheng Xuening’s garden.

Zheng Xuening and the girl in her arms were pressed tightly together.

She always liked to hold Lu Dieqing in front of her, protecting her from behind with her embrace.

Feeling her heart pressed against the girl’s back, so tightly that it was as if her heartbeat only existed because of the other.

“Ningning, the women of the Shan Kingdom are so bright.”

Lu Dieqing sat on the horse’s back, the pearl flowers and gold-inlaid jade hairpins on her head swaying gently, which made her look even more beautiful than the bridal sedan chair.

She was clearly the brightest existence on the entire long street, yet she praised others with a smiling face.

Zheng Xuening held the girl in her arms, feeling the warmth and softness of the other’s body, her heart completely filled with a gentle love.

“You are the brightest,” she said, pressing her lips together, completely unable to see the other scenery on the roadside.

Today was the happiest day of her life.

Especially at this moment.

Zheng Xuening almost forgot that she had once been the heir of the Chaoying Kingdom, and what kind of place she had come from.

In her mind and heart, everything about her past had become a blank.

Only everything about Lu Dieqing was so vivid and ardent.

From the first time she had become the other’s little wooden doll, to their face-to-face meeting in the Library Pavilion…

Every single bit was so rich in color.

Zheng Xuening realized that before meeting Lu Dieqing, her life had been in black and white.

Even if she was the noble heir and could become the emperor of the Chaoying Kingdom in the future, her future life would only be a little busier.

It had no temperature.

But the matter of becoming the little rabbit’s doll was as if the gear of fate had turned, and had pulled her out of that hopeless and lifeless life.

She had begun to have her own moon.

“Ningning, what are you thinking about?”

The procession to escort the bride was about to circle the capital and head to the garden. Lu Dieqing couldn’t help but ask in her heart.

“I was thinking, if I hadn’t been able to become your doll back then, what would we be like now?”

Zheng Xuening answered truthfully.

Lu Dieqing, however, seemed to have sensed her relief and leaned back a little, her whole person curled up in Zheng Xuening’s embrace.

“Then we would have fallen in love in another way.”

Her tone was soft and glutinous, but firm.

Zheng Xuening was infected and couldn’t help but lower her head to kiss her dark hair, which was being blown up by the wind.

“Ahem. Little ones.” The moment the Xuanqing Sect Master suddenly appeared, she stood in front of the two of them, floating in the air.

The common people around, along with the procession, suddenly burst into an uproar.

“What’s going on?”

“Another immortal has appeared?”

“Is she not here to snatch the bride?”

Lu Dieqing and Zheng Xuening’s expressions changed at the same time. They looked at the newcomer, their eyes filled with both wariness and a few traces of vigilance.

“Who are you, your excellency?”

Zheng Xuening’s whole body was tense.

Lu Dieqing was pressed tightly against the other and could naturally feel the change in Zheng Xuening at this moment.

“You’re too vigilant, but this is a good thing.”

The Xuanqing Sect Master chuckled softly, and with a light wave of her hand, Lu Dieqing and the other, who had originally been on the horse, found that they seemed to be surrounded by an invisible barrier.

“A formation?” Lu Dieqing was the first to react.

She personally saw the procession of the bride’s escort orderly bypass her and Zheng Xuening and head towards the garden gate.

It was as if… she and Ningning had not been intercepted on the way.

Either the other had used some kind of trick, or she had set up another illusion formation to block everyone’s view.

“You two don’t have to be afraid of me.” The Xuanqing Sect landed in front of the two of them, her gaze looking at Zheng Xuening’s face, and then at Lu Dieqing.

“If we go by bloodline, little one, you should call me ‘old ancestor’.”

She said this leisurely to Lu Dieqing.

Lu Dieqing, who had also been full of wariness and a little uneasy, was completely stunned.

“Huh?” Old ancestor?

Lu Linglan, seeing Lu Dieqing’s silly look, was a little amused.

“Isn’t it you, little one, who has inherited the art of puppetry, succeeded in the spiritual awakening, and lit the spiritual incense to summon me?”

Otherwise, she had already left this place for more than three hundred years and had almost forgotten the past.

She had not expected that the Shan royal family would still exist.

It was just that it seemed that the formations and seals here had loosened a little. It was probably because the spiritual energy had been too depleted in these years, and no great cultivator had appeared here again, and no one had maintained the formations.

After Lu Linglan had said this, the scene fell into a silence.

Lu Dieqing composed herself and then said cautiously, “Then… Senior Black Dragon is also your…”

Lu Linglan: “That’s right.”

Her fingers gently tapped the bracelet on her wrist. “It’s just that I didn’t want this guy to be so useless, to have taken so long to bring someone to the sect. Since I had nothing to do, I came to see for myself.”

As she said this, her eyes, as she looked at Lu Dieqing and Zheng Xuening, couldn’t help but have a few traces of a smile.

Zheng Xuening: “Senior has returned this time to take someone away?”

Lu Dieqing said at the same time, “Old ancestor, do you have to take us away?”

Although the two of them asked in different ways, they were asking the same question.

Before, when facing the black dragon, it had not been good to be direct, and they could only deal with it with polite pretense, slowly delaying time, in order to let the two of them’s cultivation improve a little, and to have a little more confidence before leaving.

But now, seeing the legendary old ancestor of the Shan Kingdom, and the other did not look like the kind of person who could not be communicated with, Lu Dieqing and the other couldn’t help but want to ask clearly.

After all, such a great power, with a slight movement of their fingers, could completely rewrite their destiny. There was no need to hide some questions.

Lu Linglan looked at the two little ones’ somewhat hopeful and wary gazes and finally figured out what the two of them meant.

“You… you don’t want to go to the Xuanqing Sect?” She raised an eyebrow, very confused and stunned.

Hearing this, Lu Dieqing immediately replied, “If we have to go, then we can only go. But if we don’t have to go, and the people of this world are all fine, and the formations are also repaired, then we don’t want to go.”

“Is that okay? Old ancestor?” Perhaps it was really because they had the same bloodline. Lu Dieqing looked at the Xuanqing Sect Master, who claimed to be her old ancestor, and had an indescribable sense of closeness.

This made her dare to speak her mind.

“To cultivate to seek immortality is what so many people hope for. You two are actually willing to stay in this place and give up a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?”

Lu Linglan felt that she might really be old, or that her long life of cultivation had made her gradually forget many things of the mortal world.

In the face of the Great Dao, she had let go of many people and things of the past. However, looking at Lu Dieqing and the other’s so tightly trusting look, she felt an indescribable sentimentality and daze.

Lu Dieqing thought for a moment and replied, “Cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight. My parents only had me as a child. If I were to leave, they would be left without a child to serve them. I… I am reluctant.”

“This is both my and my wife’s homeland. Old ancestor, it is also your homeland. Why don’t you also stay here for a while, look at the formations, and do a little something for our homeland?”

When she said these things, Lu Dieqing herself was a little nervous. Her back was pressed against Zheng Xuening’s shoulder, and she used the warmth from the other’s body to remind herself not to be afraid.

Lu Linglan looked at the little one’s appearance and smiled.

“Entering my Xuanqing Sect is not like entering a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair. You two don’t have to be so vigilant. If you don’t want to go, then don’t. As for the matter of the formations, I originally had plans to mend the formations when I came back this time. You two little ones don’t need to worry.”

As Lu Linglan spoke, she threw over a jade pendant and gave it to Lu Dieqing and the other.

“Take it. This is a token. If, many years later, you two change your minds, you might as in come to the Xuanqing Sect to be my disciples.”

She could see at a glance that Lu Dieqing and Zheng Xuening were indeed good seedlings for cultivation. Their bones and spiritual roots were surprisingly good.

Not only that, but the jade bracelet on Zheng Xuening’s wrist, she had also seen it at a glance. It was a new spiritual artifact, and from the aura on it, it was clear that it was from Lu Dieqing’s hand.

And the doll that Lu Dieqing had been hiding in her sleeve had also not escaped Lu Linglan’s divine sense.

She could even see that Zheng Xuening was the key to Lu Dieqing’s puppeteer identity. These two had actually formed such a strange and intimate relationship.

This had made Lu Linglan develop a love for talent.

Originally, she had had the black dragon come to pick up a successor, and it was only out of the original intention of taking care of her descendants. She had not had any other expectations.

But after seeing these two little ones, Lu Linglan was a little expectant of what kind of storm these two would stir up when they came to the Xuanqing Sect in the future.

She had also left some cultivation method restrictions on the jade pendant. Only when Zheng Xuening and the other had broken through the ninth layer of the Qi Refining stage and had successfully established their foundation would they be able to see the cultivation method on the jade pendant.

After Lu Linglan had thrown the jade pendant, her whole person had disappeared.

It was just that before she left, she had glanced at the garden where Lu Dieqing and the other were getting married, and had shaken her head and laughed.

“It is indeed fate.”

This garden had been built by her back then. She had not thought that after hundreds of years, it would still be so well-preserved, and would even have fallen into the hands of this new couple.

Hundreds of years had passed, and all the people here had changed. Lu Linglan could not find any of the people she had been familiar with back then. She could only look at the descendants of her old friends one by one. After she had seen them, she had silently gone to the place where the small world’s formations were set up and had reinforced them again.

Until Lu Linglan had completely disappeared, and Lu Dieqing and the other had also returned to their new room, and there was no one around, only themselves, the two of them were still a little unable to come back to their senses.

“Ningning?” Lu Dieqing was wearing her wedding dress and leaned into her embrace.

“What’s wrong?” Zheng Xuening lowered her eyes.

The girl’s two hands, like a koala, clung to her and said in a small voice, “Are we free?”

If what the old ancestor said was true, she would not be taken away to the Xuanqing Sect and be away from home.

She could stay in her homeland with Ningning and be with her parents.

Zheng Xuening lowered her head and kissed the girl’s cheek.

“Is this the time to talk about this, my precious?”

Today was their wedding night.

Their lives seemed to have just begun. The days ahead were long.

Lu Dieqing took the initiative to intertwine her ten fingers with Zheng Xuening’s. The two of them snuggled together and lay down, their red lips raised, full of smiles.

“Ningning, in the future, will you still be my little doll?”

Zheng Xuening gently kissed her. “Yes.”

“Then are you still my sister?”

Another kiss fell. “Yes.”

“Then…” Lu Dieqing was about to speak again, but her lips were blocked.

“Now, I am just your wife. Focus.”

The night was deep.

This pair of lovers, who had come from the Chaoying Kingdom, had finally become each other’s wife.

In the future, no matter what the journey was like, they would no longer be separated and lonely.

“Ningning, I love you so much,” Lu Dieqing confessed in a small voice.

Zheng Xuening responded to her with an even more ardent love. “I also love you so much, my love.”

“Come, sleep in my arms.”
