Journey to the West: Treasure Vase of the Great Dao-Chapter 392 - 169
The enraged roar of the Patriarch of the Nether River filled the Demon Realm, and the Sea of Blood seemed to sense his fury, whipping up raging blood waves that ravaged the world.
"The cooked duck has flown away," this feeling made him extremely angry, his brain began to whir rapidly, and the events of the past unfolded in his mind like a movie.
When his memory traced back to the moment the Mysterious Figure crushed the rules, he had an epiphany—it could only have been this Mysterious Figure that imperceptibly extracted the rules.
"Damn it! Don't let me find out who you are, or else I'll tear you to pieces, even if I have to search from the Nine Heavens to the Yellow Springs!" he said hatefully, with the pent-up frustration in his heart having nowhere to vent.
Meanwhile, Lu Yu, who had already left Flame Mountain quietly and returned to Mountain Luoxia, was also secretly alarmed.
However, now that Heaven's Secret was in chaos and he could not use his senses to deduce anything, he could still guess that the Patriarch of the Nether River must have discovered the disappearance of his authority without realizing it.
A trace of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, yet there was not a hint of regret in his heart. Since their enmity began, perhaps in the eyes of the Patriarch of the Nether River, Lu Yu was nothing but a slightly stronger ant, not worth taking seriously at all.
But for Lu Yu, it was the closest he had come to death, even more terrifying than death itself. He would have become a puppet like the Bull Demon King, his life manipulated by the hands of another, and it was also a time when the pride of a transmigrator was utterly trampled underfoot.
He turned his head and saw a Treasure Vase hanging above the lake in Cave Heaven, shining brightly. A phantom Water World unfolded around it, and his disciples were sitting in this place with their eyes tightly closed, cultivating earnestly.
This Treasure Vase, now endowed with rules and authority, created a precious space where cultivating underneath it doubled the effect, providing more profound insights into cultivation. This was an immense opportunity, especially for someone like Xiao Qi of the Dragon Clan. Even Big Black Donkey and Ruyi True Immortal abandoned their usual laziness and were earnestly comprehending.
Therefore, inside Cave Heaven, there was no longer the usual noise; everyone was immersed in cultivating, and the whole space was silent.
Lu Yu couldn't help but display a knowing smile. This was the image he had in mind for cultivators—seizing every opportunity to cultivate diligently, without a moment's lapse, serving as an encouragement to himself as well. After all, as their mentor, how could he slack off?
He slowly closed his own eyes and began his cultivation. The Enlightenment Tea Tree gently shook its branches, suddenly radiating dazzling light that quietly fell onto Lu Yu, draping him in a Rosy Clouds Robe to aid his cultivation.
The Great Dao Treasure Vase too wasn't to be outdone, with blue light flickering ceaselessly. The entire Cave Heaven seemed to transform into an ocean, with everyone drifting through the sea.
At the same time, on Putuo Island in the South Sea, Red Child was looking eagerly into the distance, next to him was Xiao Longnu sitting by the sea, dipping her two white little feet into the ocean, letting the waves wash over them, and Little Black Bear who lay beside her, bored and soundly asleep.
"Red Child, you should rest easy," Xiao Longnu said, propping her head on her hands. "Didn't the Bodhisattva say your parents are safe and sound, and have also joined Buddhism?"
Red Child slowly nodded and said, "I've received news that my parents are coming to Putuo Island to see me today!"

Xiao Longnu's face immediately showed envy upon hearing this, "That's wonderful, your parents can still come to see you. Unlike me, every time it's just my mother alone."
At that, her face suddenly showed a sorrowful expression, her heart recalling her father who had passed away.
As a young girl, she had taken everything for granted, thinking that her worry-free days would last forever, not realizing until her father's death that her happiness was being protected by a large tree shielding her from the elements.
And now, with the tree gone, she had to face the storms on her own. Thankfully, her father had prepared an exit strategy for her before his death, thus sparing her from a tragic fate.
Being born in the Dragon Clan, she had heard about the unfortunate fates that befall dragon princesses who are left alone.
Seeing the expression on the Dragon Princess's face, Red Child could tell she was reminiscing about the past, and quickly spoke to comfort her, "Dragon Princess, don't be too sad. Uncle probably wants you to be safe and happy always."
The Dragon Princess wiped the tears from her cheeks, revealing a radiant smile, "I know, and I will live happily as Father expected me to."
Upon seeing this, a smile immediately appeared on Red Child's face, "You have us too, right, Xiao Hei?"
Little Black Bear immediately opened his eyes, looked around blankly, and asked, "Is it time to eat?"
Drool had already started to leak from the corner of his mouth, which he hastily wiped away.
"Eat, eat, eat, Xiao Hei, why do you think about nothing but eating all day?" Xiao Longnu said with a little exasperation.
A confused expression appeared on Little Black Bear's face as he asked, "What should we do if not eat? The world is a big place, but eating is the most important."
The two of them immediately began to argue about the importance of eating, while Red Child watched this scene with a gentle smile, finding everything incredibly beautiful.
Just then, a noise came from the west. Red Child looked up joyfully and saw the Bull Demon King with Princess Iron Fan slowly descending from the clouds.
In that moment, tears suddenly welled up in Red Child's eyes. Despite his efforts to hold back, they flowed down like water breaching a dam.
He rushed forward and embraced his father, no longer able to suppress the emotions in his heart, and began to cry.
In front of his parents, he felt as though he had reverted to a much younger self, unable to maintain the maturity he displayed in front of the Dragon Princess and Little Black Bear.
The Bull Demon King fondly stroked his child's head, and even he, who was always strong, couldn't help but have moist eyes.
Having narrowly escaped death, the Bull Demon King realized that family affection was what he craved most in his heart, especially his child, who was his greatest pride in life.
"It's alright now, it's alright!" said the Bull Demon King, his voice filled with boundless tenderness.
Princess Iron Fan, too, had wet eyes and quietly wiped the tears that had fallen on her face.

She softly consoled her child, "Yes! Everything is in the past, and our family has finally been reunited."
Hearing this, the Bull Demon King let out a hearty laugh and said, "Your mother is right, we are finally reunited as a family. And now, I too am a follower of Buddhism, and you can come to Mount Ling to see me in the future. I am now serving under Maitreya Buddha."
Red Child, feeling a bit embarrassed, wiped away his tears. Crying like this in front of his two good friends made him, who was usually somewhat aloof, a little uncomfortable.
