Looking down, Feng Wu saw the cub’s big glistening eyes and… a milk bottle around its neck?
Holding the bottle with both front paws, it sucked on it while stealing glances at Feng Wu every now and then.
Feng Wu was speechless.
“What on earth is in there?” Feng Wu tried to take the bottle.
“Hm —”
Fearing that its master was going to confiscate its food, the cub sucked hard and finished the last bit in one go, then burped in satisfaction.
Feng Wu was speechless. Giving the cub a gentle flick on the forehead with her finger, she said, “You silly thing. How am I going to make the food for you if I don’t know what it is? Go get it from Feng Xun yourself, then.”
“Hm —” The cub immediately handed the bottle to Feng Wu.
However, there was nothing left…
Feng Wu wanted to cry, but no tears would come.
Just then, something clicked in Feng Wu’s head and an unusual sensation filled her dantian.
Seriously?
Feng Wu was very familiar with that sensation, for she had gone through six breakthroughs already.
There was no time to think. She picked up her pace and hurried back home. After stuffing the cub into her mother’s hands, she went to her own room.
Before she went in, Feng Wu told Qiuling, “No one is to enter my room before I come out. Keep that in mind.”
Feng Wu looked very serious.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Qiuling nodded. “No problem. I’ll stay right outside. Call me if you need anything.”
Feng Wu nodded, then closed the door behind her.
Inside.
Without thinking, Feng Wu sat down with her legs crossed, got rid of all distracting thoughts, then entered a trance.
The first thing she did was to inspect her dantian.
As expected, the golden liquid was about to spill out!
Feng Wu closed her eyes immediately and began to cycle the golden liquid through her meridians —
She had no idea what had happened, but this change was great news to her.
For she was going to break through again.
She was a Level 6 Spiritual Master now, and Feng Wu was certain that she was on her way to becoming a Level 7 Spiritual Master.
Time crawled by.
The sun set, then rose again…
Attentive to her duty, Qiuling stayed outside the door the whole time, keeping a close watch on what was going on inside and not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Inside.
Feng Wu was soaking wet from all the sweat and she looked like she had just been fished out of the sea. Her hair and clothes were all dripping and the floor was wet as well.
Her stunning face glistened from all the sweat. Then, her eyes opened slowly.
A dazzling light flickered in those limpid, intelligent eyes.
Feng Wu let out her breath in a long exhale, and she smiled.
She was a Level 7 Spiritual Master now.
She had reached this level much faster than she had expected.
If she kept making progress at this speed, she would become a Spiritual Grandmaster by the time they arrived at the imperial capital… And those people still had no idea that she was cultivating again, and would still see her as a cripple.
If… if she revealed herself at some critical moment, how surprised would those people in the imperial capital be? She was quite looking forward to it.
But… why had this breakthrough happened so suddenly? Rubbing her chin, Feng Wu was confused.
