Tu Xiupei looked at Xi Jin’s back as he left. The smile on her face was fading slowly, turning into an expression heavy with grudge and hatred. “Feng Tianlan, you b*tch!”
About a month ago, after she heard about the existence of Shen Qingdai, she had been spending a lot of effort making these habits look neutral. She had finally mastered all these habits and was using them these few days to make Brother Jin believe that she was Shen Qingdai.
However, as soon as Feng Tianlan woke up and had one conversation with Brother Jin, Brother Jin started suspecting her.
She was such a b*tch!
It seemed like she couldn’t get Brother Jin to avenge her for the time being. She could only swallow her anger back inside. However, regarding her Cinnabar field, she wasn’t going to let it go just like that. She must restore her Cinnabar field somehow.

Feng Tianlan went to visit Luo Yunzhu and the others subsequently. She did her own check-up on their bodies on her own. Their veins had all been affected by the self-destructing assassin. With the help of Spirit Boosting Pill, they were recovering slowly. It was just a matter of time before they woke up.
“Mobai.” Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked up at Si Mobai’s cold face. He was probably unhappy about the incident just now.
Si Mobai let out a faint “uh-huh” as he squeezed her hand. “I had the kitchen prepare some congee. You are only just recovered, have a light meal.”
“Are you still mad?”
“I will not allow anyone to hurt you.” Even if that person was himself.
Feng Tianlan remained silent for a while. In the end, she didn’t explain anything to him. Her past life and her mother had taught her one very important lesson: one could love another person completely, but one should know the limit and keep some things to oneself.
Actually, Si Mobai had guessed even though she didn’t tell him. That was why he didn’t ask her. He wanted to give her some space and freedom.
“Mobai, you will always believe in me, right?” Feng Tianlan raised her head and looked at him. Even if she didn’t tell him anything, he would still believe her and stand by her side no matter what, right?
Si Mobai nodded. “That’s right.” He trusted her implicitly.
Feng Tianlan smiled brightly. Her beautiful smile reached her eyes, making her look much more beautiful.
“From now on, do not smile at others like that,” Si Mobai ordered when he saw her smile like that, flashing a weapon that could overthrow a city. Such a smile was too stunning, on top of her already unrivaled beauty. If she were to smile like that, no one knew how many souls would fall in love with her.
Feng Tianlan nodded. “Alright.” She decided to let him be possessive of her for now.
“Oh right, what happened to the assassins?”
“Dead.” Si Mobai’s voice turned cold. When he thought about how Lan’er had almost gotten killed by them, he couldn’t resist searching out their corpses and give them a thorough beating.
“Three Spiritual Kings and more than ten Spiritual Grandmasters. Such a big deal. Obviously, they wanted me to put them to death.”
During the day of the assassination, it took less than three deep breaths for the appearance of the killer to his self-destruction. She didn’t even have the chance to catch her breath. It was an all-out brutal assassination.
“They were from the Solemn Killing Order, the top assassin organization in the Guiyuan Continent. Wherever they made an appearance, there were no survivors. However, the price is high. One assassin alone cost millions of gold coins. For the assassination this time, it could not have been taken without tens of thousands of Spiritual Crystals.”
He knew everything there was to know about the Solemn Killing Order. They usually stayed out of each other’s way, so he had never crossed swords with them before.
He didn’t expect them to actually assassinate Lan’er. They were surely asking for death!
“Tens of thousands of Spiritual Crystal… They thought really highly of me,” Feng Tianlan snorted. She knew how rare Spiritual Crystals were in the Guiyuan Continent. There weren’t many people who could spend tens of thousands of Spiritual Crystals in one go, it was obvious to her who ordered it without needing to think too deeply.
“You are priceless,” Si Mobai said faintly, but his words were filled with inexplicable affection.
