Feng Wu stared at the white fairy and asked, “Are you sure about this? There won’t be any side effects?”
The white fairy’s eyes darted around.
“Tell me the truth!” Feng Wu stared at her.
The white fairy stuttered, “Well, it’s not completely without side effects. It’s just that… Well, I’ll tell you the truth.”
The white fairy cleared her throat, and the look on her face became serious. “As you know, her Ultimate Yin Body is still that of a human, but once she goes into the Spiritual Spring and bathes in the Yin water, she will have a genuine Ultimate Yin Body.”
Feng Wu frowned and stared at the white fairy.
“And once she has such a body, it’ll be very easy for her to become a half-ghost,” said the white fairy. “She won’t be able to get married and have babies, but that’s about it.”
Feng Wu: !!!
She wanted to smack the fairy.
The white fairy glanced at Feng Wu. “You can ask her yourself. I don’t think she has ever wanted marriage or a child. All that girl ever thinks of is you. I’ve never seen such a loyal maid.”
Feng Wu took a deep breath.
She stopped Qiuling just before the girl stepped into the spring.
After she told Qiuling what the white fairy had just said, Qiuling chuckled.
“It’s not a laughing matter!” Feng Wu stared at her.
Qiuling chuckled and said light-heartedly, “Miss, do you remember that time I went missing for an entire night? It was when you were about eight years old.”
Of course Feng Wu remembered. It was the first day she woke up after she lost her spiritual essence, and she thought that even Qiuling had given up on her.
Qiuling smiled bitterly. “Actually, Miss Feng Liu threw me into the ditch, and it took me a whole night to climb out. But my health was destroyed that night. Granny Zhao found me a doctor in private, and I overheard their conversation. The doctor said that the cold water had affected my health, and I would never be able to have children.”
Feng Wu was astonished. “Why don’t I know this?”
Qiuling chuckled. “I’ve always kept my ailment a secret all these years. You did sense it once and checked my pulse, but I managed to distract you, and you didn’t notice anything.”
Feng Wu asked, “Why didn’t you tell me this before?”
Qiuling smiled bitterly. “Miss, you lost all your cultivation power at that time, and Miss Feng Liu’s family was on the rise. I didn’t want to bring you more trouble, so I kept it a secret.”
Feng Wu asked, “Why are you telling me now, then?”
Qiuling smiled. “You’re stronger now, Miss. If you can kill Miss Zuo Qingyu and Princess Jun Wuxia, I’m sure Miss Feng Liu won’t be a problem for you.”
Feng Wu said, “Sure! I’ll leave Feng Liu to you. When you’re strong enough, you can take care of her yourself!”
Qiuling said, “That’s a deal!”
“By the way —” Qiuling suddenly remembered something. “Miss Chaoge is here as well.”
Feng Wu frowned. “What are you talking about? Isn’t Chaoge with Master Jue?”
Qiuling said, “Yes, Master Jue is also here.”
Feng Wu was even more surprised. “How did they come in? Why didn’t I hear about this? And how did you get in here? I didn’t see you outside.”
The white fairy smiled a little. “It seems the Master Jue you’re talking about reached some sort of agreement with the other two ghost kings, and they opened a secret door for him.”
Right after the white fairy said that, Qiuling said, “Master Jue didn’t come in through the front door. A side door was opened somewhere else for him.”
