Chapter 851: Little Fart
“I, I can cultivate immortality?” Leng Hua was dumbfounded, unable to believe it.
Even Leng Shuang was speechless and stood there silently.
“The elixir that you ate is called Five Elements Pill. It’s the newest elixir I have refined, and it can help people with no spiritual roots to develop spiritual roots. However, which element the spiritual root is depends on you.”
She smiled and continued: “I’ve told you that if there was an opportunity, I will help you advance immortality cultivation. However, you must know that the road to immortality won’t be easy, there will be many dangers and difficulties awaiting you.”
Leng Hua was choked up with emotion by what he heard: “Rest assured Mistress, as long as I can cultivate, I am not afraid of any dangers or difficulties.”
He could only continue to be by his Mistress’s side in the future, if he was able to cultivate and become stronger. Even if his Mistress were to go to the Empire and established another Feng Family, he could be the head steward.
Leng Shuang came around from her daze, knelt down and bowed: “Thank you Mistress.”
Leng Hua also knelt down and bowed: “Thank you Mistress.”
“What are you doing? Get up.” She motioned for them to get up and said: “You are my subordinates and I have said that I would treat the people around me well, so don’t be like this.”
“Leng Hua, come over so I can measure your spirit root.” She beckoned for him to come over.
“Yes.” Leng Hua was a little nervous as he stepped forwards. When he placed his hand on the spirit plate and saw that it pointed to water element, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn’t matter which element his spirit root was, as long as he had spirit root, he could cultivate.
“Oh, it’s actually water element spirit root?”
She was a little surprised and laughed: “I didn’t expect that taking the Five Elements Pill would produce a single water element. The cultivation of a single element was quicker than that of a double element. Not bad to have someone with a water based spirit root by my side.”
She kept the spirit plate and took out the cultivation and enlightenment manual from space and gave it to him: “Cultivating immortality is almost the same as mystical martial arts. As long as you are able to draw the breath into your body, then you will be a spiritual cultivator, then a spiritual Mistress, then a foundation cultivator, then a Golden Core cultivator and then Nascent Soul. It is important to progress step by step to ensure stability.”
“Yes, I will remember it.” He listened in excitement, an indescribable feeling filled the whole room. He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to go back to his room to start cultivating immediately.
“Go now and cultivate. Ask me if there is anything you don’t understand.” She smiled and motioned for him to go back to his room.
“Okay, I will go back first.” He returned to his room holding on to the cultivation and enlightenment manual tightly.
“Oh, where is the little guy? Why haven’t I seen him around?” Feng Jiu asked Leng Shuang when she realised the little guy was nowhere to be seen!
“When Mistress went into the alchemy room to practise refining elixirs, he told us that he was going to practise his cultivation and told us not to disturb him. He even picked the most remote courtyard in the residence as his practise space. It’s only Leng Hua who has been sending over breakfast the last few days.”
“Oh? Cultivating at such a young age? I will go and take a look.” After she had instructed servants to clear the dishes from the table, she proceeded to the most remote north courtyard in the residence.
When she arrived at the courtyard, she saw that the door was firmly closed and she could hear the flowing of water from within the room. She raised her eyebrows and called out: “Little Hell’s Lord? Little guy? Little Fart? Are you inside? I am going to come in.”
After she spoke, she heard a plopping sound come from inside the room and she rushed inside quickly.
Chapter 852: The Old Man Is Missing
Upon hearing this, Little Hell’s Lord blinked, so she does think about him. She would stand by the window and look out thinking of him when he didn’t know it.
When he thought of this, a warm current flowed through his heart and his heart became oddly tender. At this moment in time, he really wanted to tell her that he was right here.
“His frost poison is cured, you don’t have to worry about him.”
The immature voice drifted over from behind her and Feng Jiu looked back at him: “Cured? How was it cured? That is a thousand year frost poison, if it were that easy to cure, the poison wouldn’t be in his body for so long.”
He pursed his lips and glanced at her: “Of course he paid a great price to cure the poison.” He paused and explained further: “You didn’t ask me so I had forgotten to mention it.”
Feng Jiu came to his bedside and looked at him covered in his blanket: “You’re really his younger brother? How come I’ve never heard that he has a younger brother?”
When he heard this, he pulled his blanket up higher and yawned: “I’m very tired, I’m going to sleep first.” He closed his eyes and didn’t say anymore.
Seeing this, Feng Jiu smiled shaking her head. This little rascal, it was really hard to get information out of him.
She removed her outer robe and pulled the blanket open, then climbed into bed to lie down wearing only her inner robe. She reached out and pulled the little guy into her arms. She could feel that he had grown quite a lot in the last two weeks and she was puzzled, how did he grow so fast?
Early the next morning, she brought Little Hell’s Lord to the Peach Blossom Ridge.
She had been back for half a month, but had been immersed in refining. She had almost forgotten to ask the old man what was going on to the lotus seed in her dantian. Although she is currently at the Foundation stage peak, but she still had to split part of her spiritual energy to nourish the green lotus seed in her dantian.
What made her frazzled was the fact that she had been nourishing the lotus seed for nearly a year and there was no change. At this rate, she was beginning to wonder whether the lotus seed would actually bloom. Or was there another effect or use?
Who could have anticipated that when she arrived at Peach Blossom Ridge, there was no sign of the old man anywhere. Finally, she asked a family of Ghost Cultivators who had been cultivating here for information and found out that the old man had left shortly after she left last year.
“Was he afraid that I would come back to look for him? How could he leave without leaving any word?” She stared at the cultivators in front of her, she didn’t think that she wouldn’t be able to find him when she returned.
“Master, he only said to tell you not to look for him. He said that it is a good thing and only gifted by fate. It is harmless to master and its use will be known in the future.”
Feng Jiu frowned, of course she knew that the green lotus seed was harmless to her, otherwise she wouldn’t have waited so long before she came back. But she knew little about the green lotus seed in her dantian. Was she supposed to just continue to nourish it?
What if there was still no change?
Black lined appeared across her forehead as she thought about this. If only she could remove the lotus seed, she really wanted to remove the lotus seed. However, it was like the lotus seed had grown roots in her belly, it was impossible to get it out unless she cut it out of her belly.
“Oh, forget it, if he’s gone so be it.” She sighed lightly and waved her hand, she looked at them and asked: “What are you cultivating?”
Chapter 853: Why Did You Grow So Fast?
She glanced at him and said: “You have no choice!”
“I disagree!”
“Your disagreement is not valid.” She didn’t know what she would do if something like that were to happen again.
He looked at her, he knew that she was soft hearted on the inside, so he eased his tone of voice and said: “Next time I will pay more attention then I won’t slip again, and accidents like this won’t happen again. I can take care of myself.”
He wasn’t really a child, how could he not know how to look after himself? If she hadn’t suddenly shouted out that she was coming in, he wouldn’t have panicked as he was just about to step out of the bathtub and slipped, falling into the bathtub head first.
Feng Jiu’s eyes narrowed: “You don’t need me to bathe you?”
“Yes.” He nodded his head, the expression on his delicate face was serious.
Can she see his little body? The answer was no.
“That’s okay, I can get someone else to bathe you.” She said casually, but she saw his expression change. He gritted his teeth and finally compromised.
“Fine! You wash! You wash!” This woman, she knew he hated other people near him and yet she suggested getting someone else to bathe him. She was forcing him into a corner.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but wonder whether he should take advantage of this time while his powers hadn’t been restored. He found that after he had shrunk, he had no power over her, even any opposition was useless.
“That’s a good boy.” She pulled him to her side and stroked his head: “Be good and obedient and I won’t smack you.”
His face trembled and his lips twitched and looked away after he glanced at her briefly.
“Hey, how come you seem to have grown taller?” She held him close to her side and as she stroked his head, Feng Jiu found that he had grown a lot taller since she last saw him two weeks ago.
She pushed him away from him and looked him up and down, measured him, and looked at him in amazement: “You’ve really grown taller. You looked like a three or four year old child. Now you look as tall as a five or six year old child. What have you eaten these few days? How did you grow so fast?”
Upon hearing this, he looked down at himself without speaking. Of course he had grown, it was because he had been cultivating the last two weeks. Once his lost powers have been restored, he will return to his original appearance.
However, her words reminded him that he was recovering too quickly. She wouldn’t think much of it if she saw him regularly. However, she would if she hadn’t seen him for a longer time.
If he hadn’t had so many embarrassing things happen in front of her in the past, he would have told her. But how could he tell her now? He knew for sure that if he told her now, he would lose all his dignity.
The more he thought about it, he knew that he had to keep this a secret. There was no way she could find out. Besides, looking at the current situation, he would have to leave earlier anyway.
“What are you thinking about? Tell me, what have you been eating recently? You’ve not taken any medicine have you?” As she spoke to him, she took his pulse, but didn’t find anything peculiar about his health. She couldn’t help but find it odd.
It’s only been half a month, how did he grow so fast?
“Ahem!”
He coughly lightly and his delicate face stiffened: “I am just like my elder brother, I grow quicker than most people when I’m young. There’s nothing weird about it.”
He glanced at her and continued speaking seriously: “I am a man, in the future you can’t smack my…..ahem!” He was unable to say the word buttocks.
Chapter 854: Lantern Festival
When she heard this, Feng Jiu couldn’t help but smile: “You aren’t considered a man yet, you’re just a little boy.” When she finished speaking, she saw that he was sulking again. He looked exactly like Hell’s Lord and she couldn’t help but reached out to touch his cheeks.
“Little rascal, you are always sulking, aren’t you afraid that you will age faster?” However she was secretly smiling on the inside. She didn’t dare touch Hell’s Lord’s face, but she had no problem touching the little rascal’s face.
He removed her hand and said: “Don’t rub my face.”
“Today is the fifteenth, it’s Lantern Festival. We shall go to the palace for a meal and then I will take you for a walk around the Lantern Festival, how about that?” She asked with a smile as she looked at the proud little guy in her arms.
“Okay.” He replied, somewhat happy.
In the evening, they headed to the palace. As Su Xi was still in her confinement period and unable to go out, they had a simple reunion dinner and played with the baby for a while before they left.
On this Lantern Festival night, the streets of the city were lined with various coloured lanterns. You could also guess riddles and set off fireworks, there was joy everywhere.
They looked at all the different lanterns with him walking next to Feng Jiu. His eyes wavered slightly and he came to stop by some lanterns. He looked at them all and finally, his gaze finally landed on a lotus flower lantern. He looked at the puzzle below and said to the street hawker: “Take this one down.”
“Oh little boy, if you can guess the riddle, the lantern is free, if you can’t guess the riddle, you have to pay for it.” The hawker said with a smile and took the lotus flower lantern down, he said: “Little mister, the riddle on this lotus flower lantern is: it is red on one side, green on one side, happy wind on one side, happy rain on one side, guess one word.”
“Autumn.” Little Hell’s Lord answered and reached out his hands: “Give it to me.”
The smile on the hawker’s face froze and he looked at the riddle answer before handing the lantern over to him. He smiled as he said: “Little mister is so smart, you guessed it immediately, you’re correct, the riddle answer is autumn. The lotus flower lantern is yours.”
“Do you like this?” Feng Jiu walked over and also picked up a lantern, hers was a fish shaped lantern: “I thought you would like this one.” She waved the lantern in her hands and passed it over to him.
He glanced at it before he took the lantern. As he took the lantern from her, he also passed her the lotus flower lantern and said: “It’s for you.”
“For me?”
She smiled with surprise and was somewhat pleased: “Thank you.”
When he saw her happy face, his eyes widened slightly as he tried hard to maintain a cool expression. However, the corners of his lips couldn’t help but curled up slightly and revealed his cheerful mood.
“What other lantern do you want? I will give it to you.” He held the fish shaped lantern she passed to him in his hands and looked up at her with a look of confidence that he would be able to get it as long as she liked it.
“One lantern is enough, let’s go! Let’s go to the front and eat some mini dumplings.” She smiled as she held the lantern in one hand and his hand in the other.
The two of them walked to the stall at the front to eat mini dumplings and squeezed with the crowd on the streets to watch the performances on the street. Finally, they watched the fireworks. It was midnight by the time they returned to the residence to rest.
After his bath, Little Hell’s Lord laid on his bed and looked at the woman stood by the window looking outside at some faraway place and asked: “What are you looking at?”
“It’s the fifteenth tonight, I’m wondering if his frost poison is acting up?”
Chapter 855: The Old Man Is Missing
Upon hearing this, Little Hell’s Lord blinked, so she does think about him. She would stand by the window and look out thinking of him when he didn’t know it.
When he thought of this, a warm current flowed through his heart and his heart became oddly tender. At this moment in time, he really wanted to tell her that he was right here.
“His frost poison is cured, you don’t have to worry about him.”
The immature voice drifted over from behind her and Feng Jiu looked back at him: “Cured? How was it cured? That is a thousand year frost poison, if it were that easy to cure, the poison wouldn’t be in his body for so long.”
He pursed his lips and glanced at her: “Of course he paid a great price to cure the poison.” He paused and explained further: “You didn’t ask me so I had forgotten to mention it.”

“Oh, forget it, if he’s gone so be it.” She sighed lightly and waved her hand, she looked at them and asked: “What are you cultivating?”
Chapter 856: Clothes Too Small
“Master, we have achieved some success in our cultivation, we are able to come out in daylight now. However, we are unable to maintain our form for long. ” Elder Zhao replied, the joy in his eyes was obvious.
“The Master of Peach Blossom Ridge never sent anyone after the old man left, hence we have been guarding this place since then. Other than showing ourselves occasionally during the day, we generally don’t come out. In the past year, nothing much has happened, and the people haven’t been alarmed.” The old woman added.
“A few months ago, Empire Master brought Sunny to visit us. Sunny has been brought up well and also been practising martial arts with the Feng guards.” The young man informed her, he looked at his wife next to him and continued speaking: “This is all because of Master. We won’t ever forget your kindness. Anything Master tells us to do, we will do it even if it costs us our lives.”
The young wife nodded her head. They were filled with gratitude that they had received such good fortune, and their child was able to receive a good upbringing and education.
Feng Jiu nodded and said: “I have come here to tell you that my grandmother has given birth to a baby boy, his name is Feng Ye. He’s nearly half a month old now. Grandfather had mentioned that he planned to have Sunny stay by my little uncle’s side in the future to be his playmate and bodyguard.”
The four of them were overjoyed when they heard this news and immediately expressed their gratitude: “Thank you Master. We are so happy that Sunny can follow by Young Lord’s side.”
With Sunny growing up with Young Lord, they would study together, and develop a close relationship that can’t be compared with an ordinary guard. They were extremely grateful for such a good opportunity.
“Peach Blossom Ridge shall be under your care now. If there is anything that you can’t manage, then ask the Feng guards to take care of it.” She left further instructions and then headed back to Feng Residence with Little Hell’s Lord.
In the days that followed, she was quite free because she wasn’t busy refining pills. Other than the scheduled cultivation time, the rest of her time was spent walking around with Little Hell’s Lord.
In a blink of an eye, another half a month had gone by and it was the day of her little uncle Feng Ye’s full month banquet.
Early that morning, after she had washed herself and dressed in her red robes, she walked to the bedside and saw the distressed face of the little guy sat on the bed and asked: “What’s wrong?”
“My clothes are too small.” He placed his clothes against himself to show her. The sleeves were shorter and the robe was shorter too.
“Have you grown again?” She blinked in surprise. Because she was with him everyday, she hadn’t noticed that he had grown. However, when he had picked up his clothes and placed it against himself, the difference was quite obvious.
He was about the size of a five or six year old child, and now he had grown to the size of a six or seven year old child. It had only been a month, it wasn’t a very long time. This had her worried.
In the past two weeks, she had been living with him and eating with him. She didn’t notice him eating anything out of the ordinary. She really couldn’t understand how he was growing so quickly. Was it as he said, it was in his genes?
He looked at her not saying a word. He had indeed grown quite a lot in half a month. Moreover, with the restoration of his powers, his recovery would speed up even faster later on. He knew that it was time he left, he couldn’t stay any longer.
“It’s okay, I will ask someone to alter your clothes first. We will make you a new set of clothes later on.” She patted his head as she spoke to him because she thought that he was sulking that his clothes were too small.
Chapter 857: Elegant Noble Master, Unparalleled In The World
She instructed one of the servants to alter his clothes and then brought him to the palace.
The banquet was being held in the Imperial Garden. When they arrived at the palace, there were quite a few guests who had already arrived. Only the closest family and friends, and Suxi’s family were invited today. It wasn’t a big banquet, but rather a gathering for everyone to meet the baby.
Feng Xiao was greeting everyone in the Imperial Garden. The Old Patriarch was still inside and hadn’t come out yet. When Feng Jiu arrived with Little Hell’s Lord, everyone stood up to greet her.
“Your Highness.”
“We haven’t seen Princess in a long time, Princess is even more magnificent.”
“Feng girl is getting more beautiful, hahaha!”
When she saw everyone greeting her, she smiled and said: “Please sit down everyone.” She found a place to sit down and chatted with everyone.
“Haha, your grandfather is so blessed, he’s got another son. In a blink of an eye, it’s the child’s full month. Time flies by so quickly!” Old Geng Patriarch said to her.
“Yes, time flies by so quickly. It seemed like only yesterday when we had gone to propose marriage. When I came back this time, I didn’t expect a baby to have been born.” She smiled lightly and poured him more wine.
“Grandpa Geng, have a drink first. I am going over there to give a toast and chat.” She stood up and took her leave.
“Okay, go, go!” Grandpa Geng smiled.
Feng Jiu went over to her grandmother’s brothers. Although her father was talking to them, but she should still go over to greet them, toast a cup of wine and have a chat.
As soon as she approached them, she was pulled closer to them to drink wine and talk to them. She felt joy in the atmosphere.
“Feng girl, when you’ve got time you will have to come over to our Country more often. If you are in the area, you will have to come to ours.” Lin Boheng said with a smile. As he looked at Feng Jiu clad in red, he knew that she would be an extraordinary person in the future.
She smiled slightly and said cheekily: “Oh course, if I am ever in the area, I will definitely go over to Grandpa Lin’s to eat and stay for free. Grandpa Lin can’t call be troublesome when I come to visit!”
“Of course I won’t. I am more than happy that you would come to visit.” Lin Boheng laughed and drank more wine with her as they chatted.
As the guests chatted amongst themselves, the palace maids served up dishes of food. Everyone had their own plate of food in front of them. The dishes looked exquisite.
When Old Patriarch Geng walked out carrying baby Feng Ye, his voice could be heard before he was seen.
“Hahaha, thank you to all our family and friends for coming to our son’s full month banquet.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard the voice, because it sounded much younger, unlike the Old Patriarch’s voice. Therefore, everyone put down their wine cups and turned towards the direction of the voice. What they saw made them open their eyes wide and their jaws nearly dropped to the ground.
The slender and tall man with a dignified composure was dressed in luxurious gold robes with a jade belt around his waist with a jade pendant hanging from it. Was the handsome dark haired young man the Old Patriarch Feng Sanyuan they knew?
When they saw him carrying the baby in his arms, his face full of joy, eyebrows raised upwards with a smile on his face, the combination of magnificence and his handsome looks, they couldn’t help but praise: Elegant noble master, unparalleled in the world.
Chapter 858: Farewell Family
“Sanyuan, you, you’ve advanced again?” Old Patriarch Geng asked, dumbfounded, because this was exactly what he looked like when he was a young man. There was even a calmness about him, that he had acquired over the years, that young people did not possess.
“Can’t be? You are the Emperor level, but your looks…..” Even Lin Boheng was staring at him in disbelief, his cultivation hadn’t advanced, so how did he….
All of a sudden, a thought entered his mind and he couldn’t help but look at Feng Jiu with a smile on his face.
Of course, how could he forget about her! She is the Ghost Doctor, naturally she would have the ability. It must be that Feng Jiu had refined some pill for Sanyuan to take to restore his youth appearance.
When he thought of this, he couldn’t help but sigh. Why couldn’t such a good girl belong to their family? If only he had such a good granddaughter!
“Hahaha, no, it’s just the New Year gift that our Feng girl had brought back for me. It is the latest Foundation Visage Pill created by the Ghost Doctor. I tell you, this Foundation Visage Pill, it is…..”
He boasted to them with pride and told them how amazing and precious the elixir was. Everyone was very envious.
“Come, let me carry my little nephew.” Lin Boheng took the baby from Feng Sanyuan’s arms. The skin of the one month old baby was pink and tender. The baby was born big, and ate well, so he was chubby and cute, a delight to see at first sight.
“He looks just like my younger sister.” Lin Boheng said, his voice full of love.
Everyone looked at each other and smiled, they asked what the baby’s name was. They also enquired about Suxi’s condition. Suxi’s elder brothers took turns carrying the baby.
The other people only looked on and didn’t go to carry the baby. After all, they weren’t family, and the baby was only a month old, so it was not easy to carry.
The guests started to leave by evening. After they had arranged the living accommodations for the Lin Family, Feng Jiu went to her father’s palace quarters.
“Father, little uncle is a month old now, I intend to leave tomorrow.”
“So fast?” Feng Xiao was a little reluctant to hear that his daughter was leaving so soon. She had only been back for a month. He wondered if it will be another year before he would see her again after she leaves.
She smiled: “I want to go to an Alchemy Conference. I’m not sure how long the journey will take, so I should leave soon.” She held his hand and said quietly: “Don’t worry, I will come back to visit when I have time.”
She was going to tell him about the news of her mother, but she decided against it. She didn’t want him to worry. It was better to surprise him when she brought her mother back.
As for her mother’s family, she believed that as long as her status advanced in the future, even the nobles from First Grade Countries wanted to build relationships with her, she would definitely be able to enter the palace and see her mother.
“Okay, you must be careful when you’re away from home. Take Leng Shuang and Leng Hua with you. They are both loyal to you, Leng Shuang can take care of things for you. As for Leng Hua, he is attentive. Father can only be reassured if they accompany you on your trip.”
Even though he was reluctant, but he knew that even a little bird must learn to fly and would leave the nest one day. As a father, he couldn’t stop her, he could only hope that her journey was smooth and safe.
“Okay, I know.” She responded with a smile.
Chapter 859: Don’t Go Philandering
It was already late in the night by the time they arrived back at Feng Residence. After her bath, Feng Jiu rubbed her hair dry as she said: “We will leave tomorrow! We will travel to Yi Country and participate in the Alchemy Conference on the third of March. Oh, I had ordered a new set of clothes to be made for you, it will be delivered tomorrow morning.”
She didn’t hear the little guy respond and so she looked at him, he was sat cross-legged on the bed looking at her. She asked: ” What’s wrong?” The little guy hadn’t spoken since they got back, was he unhappy?
“I have to leave.” He looked at her.
When she heard this, she froze for a moment before she said: “Leave? Who are you leaving with? Is someone coming to pick you up?”
“They will be here at midnight.” He looked at her, his mouth twitched, as if he had something more to say, but he was silent.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” She came over to the bed and asked: “Is Gray Wolf coming to pick you up? Is it safe for you to return now? Or will you cause problems for him? If he doesn’t have the time to look after you, you can leave with me! It will be fine for you to return later on.”
“Ren Xiang will come to pick me up.” He shook his head: “No, I have to leave.”
She stared at him deeply: “Then I will send for your new clothes right now.” She went outside to give Leng Shuang instructions and then came back inside.
“Since you are leaving, do you want me to prepare anything for you? Food? Daily essentials? Toys?” She asked, but deep in her heart she was a little reluctant for him to leave. Although the little rascal was proud and stubborn, but they had been living together for a while now, she was a little sad at his sudden departure.
“No need to. You can just sit with me here for a while.” He replied.
She was touched to hear this and went to the bedside and sat cross-legged like him. She thought that it must be quite stressful for the children who grew up in the Great Empires, unlike ordinary children.
She sat with him and chatted till midnight. When they heard the noise outside, the two people could not help but looked at each other.
“I have to leave.” He said.
“I will see you out.” She stood up and draped her outer robe over her shoulders. However, when he saw that she had only draped her outer robe over her shoulders, he tugged on her hand.
“What’s the matter?”
She looked back and saw the little guy looking at her and he replied: “Put on your clothes properly then come out.”
When she heard such old-fashioned and overbearing words, Feng Jiu couldn’t help but smile as she put on her outer robe properly. As she was about to tie her belt, a little pair of hands took over and tied the belt around her waist carefully.
An emotion of gentleness touched her mind as she thought, when she had a child in the future, he would no doubt also be close to her.
“Okay.” He looked up at her and said to her seriously: “Don’t go philandering.”
Feng Jiu shuddered, and then laughed. She tapped his nose and said: “Little rascal.”
“I’m serious.” He frowned: “Don’t go philandering, and make sure you are safe when you are away from home. If you can’t beat them, run.”
“I know, I know.” She shook her head and smiled lightly as she bent down and picked him up. However, she saw that he had already put on his shoes after he got off the bed. He said: “I can walk, you don’t have to carry me.”
“How could I not? We have spent some time living together now, and although you are a little troublesome, but you are also adorable. Now that you are leaving, how can I not see you off?”
Chapter 860: Imperial City Of Yi Country
In the end, Feng Jiu saw him off. In the courtyard outside, Ren Xiang and a few men in black were waiting.
When the bedroom door opened and the two people walked out. Ren Xiang had to hold back a smile as he watched the big and small bodies walking out together. However, he knew that he couldn’t expose his Master’s secret, so he pinched himself and held back the smile.
“Young Master Jiu.” Ren Xiang greeted.
“You’re sending him home?” Feng Jiu raised her eyebrows.
“No, I am only sending him to a place, and someone else will take over from there.” He continued: “Don’t worry, I will make sure there are people protecting him. Nothing will happen.”
Feng Jiu nodded and turned to Little Hell’s Lord: “Go on then, be safe on your journey!” She noticed that they hadn’t even brought a carriage to pick him up, so she took a cloak out from space and put it on for him: “The wind is cold at night, don’t catch a cold.”
He looked at her and walked over to Ren Xiang. He turned back and said: “Go back in!”
“Okay.” She smiled as she looked at him deeply. After she instructed Ren Xiang to look after him well, she turned around and went back inside.
After they watched her go inside, the people in the courtyard disappeared into the night on their flying swords….
Feng Jiu watched them disappear into the night by the window. When she could no longer see them, she removed her outer robe and climbed into bed. However, she was unable to fall asleep that night.
Early the next morning, she left with Leng Shuang, Leng Hua and the Cloud Devouring beast quietly for Yi Country without giving her father and grandpa a chance to bid her farewell…
One month later, Yi Country.
Yi Country was a fifth grade country, status above a sixth grade country. It had taken her a whole month to reach Yi Country. Of course they had also stopped for some leisure along the way.
The national defence of fifth grade countries stipulated that no one a country below fifth grade was allowed to enter, with the exception of proof of identity. Feng Jiu had the status of a doctor and could even enter third grade countries, let alone fifth grade countries.
This was also the reason she had refused Mo Chen. She was able to enter by herself, so why did she need to come with him? But, was Mo Chen also going to be here? She heard that his alchemy skills were quite high. If he were also to participate, then it wouldn’t be as easy for her to win first place!
However, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she needed to have more confidence in her Five Elements Pill. After all, it was an elixir that went against the will of the heavens. Even if it was not a fifth grade pill, it was extraordinary and also incomparable to an ordinary elixir.
“This is the Imperial City of Yi Country.” Feng Jiu stood outside the city gates and looked on at the bustling activity inside the gates and sighed: “It is indeed a different grade. The prosperity of a fifth grade country is much higher than that of a sixth grade country.”
“Master, after we enter the city, let’s find a place to stay before we take a walk around!” Leng Hua was very excited to be here.
“Yes, let’s go! Queue up to enter the city.” She signalled for them to queue up together and waited to pay the entrance fee to enter the city.
The imperial guards of an imperial city were more strict than guards of ordinary countries. Every single person who was entering the city had to show proof of identity. The citizens of the country were only required to show their proof of identity, but citizens of other countries also had to pay an entrance fee. Therefore, there were two lines of queues at the city gate to separate the country’s citizens and citizens from other countries.
