Feng Tianlan couldn’t be bothered with her, so she instructed Luo Yunzhu, “I’m going to lock myself up for the next three days. You take care of yourself and don’t loaf around.”
Luo Yunzhu was confused for a moment before she almost squealed in excitement, “If you’re locking yourself up, is it because you’re going to reach the Spiritual Grandmaster level?”
Feng Tianlan nodded slightly.
“OH! OH! OH MY GOD!” Luo Yunzhu excitedly shouted and hugged Feng Tianlan. “Tianlan, you’re amazing! You crazy woman! It’s been barely a month, and you’re advancing in level already!”
“It’s nothing really, so you don’t have to cry about it.” Feng Tianlan let Yunzhu hug her and felt very touched. Yunzhu was so happy that she cried and was more excited than she was. Yunzhu was really so sweet.
Luo Yunzhu pushed her away and wiped the tears from her eyes. “I’m sleepy because I didn’t sleep well last night. Don’t worry. I’m not crying with happiness.”
Feng Tianlan laughed and nodded. She stretched her arms out and teased, “Then, you can come sleep in my arms.”
“Tsk. Go and die.” Luo Yunzhu gently pushed her away in jest. Then, she took a deep breath and sighed deeply, “Who would have thought that someone who was known as a good-for-nothing for ten years would go from the Gathering Spirit level to Spiritual Grandmaster in just half a year?”
It seemed like just yesterday when she’d heard others insult Tianlan and say that she was a good-for-nothing. But now, nobody would dare repeat anything bad about her. It was wonderful, simply wonderful, and Yunzhu was really happy for Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan pulled back the carriage curtain and looked at the people walking along the street. She, too, sighed, “That’s how this dog-eat-dog world works.”
She could only get what she wanted when she reached her peak. She wanted to protect those she loved and avenge those who had suffered!
When they arrived at the Academy, Zhang Tiancheng came up to them. “Boss, I went to investigate yesterday’s matter and found out a few things.”
“Yesterday’s matter? What did you find out?” Feng Tianlan looked dubiously at him. She hadn’t asked him to investigate anything.
“The Minister of Justice’s daughter – she was purposely picking on you because Tu Xiupei promised her a Spirit Gathering Pill. Tu Xiupei even promised her a recommendation for discipleship at the Flying Frost Pavilion. In any case, Tu Xiupei was the one behind this.”
Zhang Tiancheng reported in detail everything he’d found out to Feng Tianlan, including how the rumors about exchanging her body for pills had come about.
“Tianlan didn’t ask you to investigate any of this.” Luo Yunzhu kicked Zhang Tiancheng aside. “You’d better stay at least a yard away from Tianlan. Don’t come so close. Otherwise, you might get beaten up.”
If the Wargod saw this, he’d definitely pulverize Zhang Tiancheng.
Zhang Tiancheng confusedly scratched his head and took a few steps back. “This concerns Boss, so I should act without her instructing me. If she always has to instruct me, that would make me a lousy follower.”
Feng Tianlan glanced at him. Zhang Tiancheng was average-looking, but he was full of energy. He didn’t look serious, but he wasn’t bad at getting things done.
“Do you really want to follow me around?”
“Of course! Otherwise, I wouldn’t call you ‘Boss.’” Zhang Tiancheng was upset that she had doubted his sincerity. He wasn’t after anything else but the loyalty that Feng Tianlan had to offer. He was sure that he wasn’t following the wrong person.
He never judged anyone wrongly!
“In that case, I’ll instruct you to do a few things for me. If you do them well, then you can follow me.” Feng Tianlan saw that he was serious about this, so she became serious too.
Zhang Tiancheng patted his chest and promised her, “I will definitely do it to the best of my ability.”
Feng Tianlan motioned for him to come closer then gave him instructions. “Is that alright with you?”
“Piece of cake. I’ll get it done for sure.”
Luo Yunzhu stuck her head in and listened to the instructions. Her eyes widened with excitement. “I want to help, too!” If Tianlan was going to torture some scum, how could she leave her out?
