“You don’t need to worry about that.” Feng Xun waved at her. “With Feng around, nothing can happen.”
“Is Feng that capable?” Feng Wu asked.
“Feng has never lost.” Feng Xun looked at Feng Wu seriously. “He doesn’t fight often, but no matter who he fights, he has never lost.”
Feng Wu understood.
But she found it rather strange. If Feng was so unfathomably capable, he should be an influential figure himself. Why would he willingly stay by Jun Linyuan’s side as a mere steward?
What was the secret behind it?
However —
Feng Wu shook her head to get rid of the thought. Right now, her top priority was to save Chaoge.
But how?
That night, Feng Wu lay in bed and went back over everything that had happened in the past few days.
Since that mysterious person had taken Chaoge away to threaten Feng Wu, they knew for sure how important Chaoge was to her.
Hence, that person had to be her enemy.
So, was it an enemy from the Junwu Empire or the Senal Grassland?
If they were from the Junwu Empire, was it Feng Yanfeng? The Zuo family? The Dugu family? The second prince? Jun Wuxia? Empress Dugu?
If they were from the Senal Grassland, could it be the older prince, Sefiro, Ranmil, or someone else?
At that thought, Feng Wu bolted up from her bed.
Since when did she have so many enemies? She didn’t think she had done anything…
Right at that moment!
Knock, knock, knock —
There was a rhythmic knock at the door.
Alarmed, Feng Wu stared at the door.
She jumped out of bed, grabbed her dagger, and walked to the door on tiptoe.
She released her spiritual essence and tried to sense the person outside.
But she sensed nothing…
It was dead silent outside.
Feng Wu suddenly opened the door.
Outside, she saw the blood-red eyes of a white rabbit as it stared at her.
The moon was bright, the night was silent, and the wind was chilly…
Anyone would jump when they saw a rabbit with a snapped neck staring at them.
Feng Wu narrowed her eyes when she saw the dead rabbit.
This indeed looked like a prank.
She searched the dead rabbit and sure enough, found a small bamboo tube on its leg.
Following the typical script, there would be a note in the tube which would contain an important message.
Feng Wu’s eyes flickered when she reached out.
She paused just before she touched the bamboo tube.
Rumble —
When she concentrated on her surroundings, she indeed heard the faint sound of breathing.
Someone was there!
Feng Wu raised her eyebrows a little.
Not only was someone there, that person was also watching her every move in the dark!
And they were full of expectation.
At that thought, Feng Wu moved a little closer.
And she was right!
The person’s breathing grew faster.
That person was excited.
They couldn’t wait to see what happened next.
Feng Wu smiled a little. If they wanted to laugh at her, she could always use the trap against them.
That person couldn’t be hiding too close by, because it would be difficult for them to run away.
That person had to be hiding somewhere with the best view, because they wanted to see her fall into trouble.
