Feng Wu clenched her fists.
The white fairy said, “Since she has her eye on Jun Linyuan, the two of you are love rivals now. It’ll be a battle of life and death.”
Feng Wu wanted to say that she didn’t actually like Jun Linyuan.
But she had made it too clear earlier, and she couldn’t take back her words now.
She sighed inwardly.
On the other side of the shelves —
“Boss Jun, Boss Jun, what are you doing here? Aren’t you too advanced for this place? How did you get in?” Feng Xun asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
The others all looked at Jun Linyuan as well.
The rule of this place was that anyone above the Spiritual Lord level couldn’t come in, because it would break the balance.
Jun Linyuan gave Feng Xun a long look and changed the subject. “Are you done rolling the dice?”
“No, of course not!”
Feng Xun turned his attention back to the dice.
“I rolled the dice for Princess Ranmil just then, and I got 22. Teehee, Boss Jun, I’ve been very lucky today.”
He then showed the Purple Sun Sword and the swordplay to Jun Linyuan and patted his chest. “I found them, all by myself!”
“And his!” Feng Xun then took the Blowing Snow Swordplay from Xuan Yi’s sleeve. “I found this, too!”
He had “praise me” all over his face.
Jun Linyuan gave him an indifferent glance and said in an emotionless tone, “I see.”
Feng Xun’s enthusiasm wasn’t dimmed when he said, “Just wait and see! I’m sure there’s something good in that lattice. Right, Princess Ranmil?”
Ranmil took a few steps forward until she was only a meter away from Jun Linyuan. The look in her eyes was still pure and innocent, but she didn’t speak to Jun Linyuan. She didn’t even try to introduce herself.
She was even pretending to ignore Jun Linyuan.
“Young Lord Feng is right. I’m sure it’ll be something nice. Thank you, my dear young lord.”
The people of the grassland didn’t care much for formalities, but Ranmil bent her knee in the fashion of the Junwu Empire to express her gratitude.
Feng Xun was over the moon. “Now, here we go!”
He then marched to the lattice and opened the door.
Whoosh —
Poof —
Heavy smoke erupted out of the lattice, so fast and heavy that it made one’s eyes water.
No matter how fast Feng Xun was, he couldn’t be as fast as the smoke!
Sizzle —
The smoke was almost in his face, and what was more terrifying was that it was poisonous!
“Cough, cough —”
Feng Xun jumped back as quickly as he could, but the smoke almost injured his eyes.
He only stopped when he was dozens of meters away. Only then did he exhale.
Still feeling shaken, he heaved a long sigh. “That was close. It nearly got me, and that smoke was poisonous! Gosh, if I wasn’t quick enough, I could have become blind!”
Meanwhile, the others all gave Feng Xun strange looks.
Dugu Yamo was the first to react and mock him. “Young Lord Feng, didn’t you say that you were definitely going to find something nice? Why did you find poisonous smoke, which nearly hurt you?”
Feng Xun blushed. It was true; he had bragged a little, but he always had an excuse.
