“Feng Wu, you’re delusional! A bed-warming maid is as far as you can go. His Royal Highness’s future wife? You’re nothing compared with Zuo Qingluan!”
Feng Wu rolled her eyes. “I never wanted to marry him, okay?”
“Heh —”
No other girl in the room would believe her.
In fact, no one in the empire would.
“Feng Wu, do you know what level Zuo Qingluan is at now? I received the information just before I entered this place.” Dugu Yamo stared at Feng Wu with a ferocious look in her eyes. “She’s reached the peak of the Spiritual Lord stage!”
Feng Liu’s eyes widened. “A peak Spiritual Lord? Then she’s as capable as Master Jue!”
Dugu Yamo smirked. “I’m afraid she’s even better than Master Jue.”
Feng Liu said, “Well, Feng Wu is even further below Miss Zuo, then.”
Dugu Yamo gave Feng Wu a contemptuous glance. “She’s not just far below Qingluan. She’s not even worthy enough to clean Qingluan’s shoes!”
“That’s enough!” Feng Xun snapped. “I’ll hit a woman when I need to. Say one more nasty thing about Xiao Wu and I’ll choke you to death!”
“You —” Dugu Yamo glared at him.
Feng Xun smirked. “I’ve killed Zuo Qingxian. Do you think I’ll think twice before killing you?”
“You —”
Dugu Yamo was still angry, but she didn’t dare offend Feng Xun anymore.
“You’re nuts!” Dugu Yamo clenched her fists. Glancing at Zuo Qingxian’s corpse on the ground, she snorted. “Just wait and see. I hear that Qingluan is coming back soon. I can’t wait to see you tell her what you did!”
“Zuo Qingluan is coming back?” Feng Sang, who had been silent this whole time, suddenly asked.
“Yes!” said Dugu Yamo proudly. “As far as I know, Qingluan has come out of seclusion and is travelling around to train herself. In less than six months, she’ll be back at the imperial capital.”
“Why?” Feng Sang asked. “Why six months?”
“Because —” Dugu Yamo suddenly smiled. “It’s a secret.”
Since she wouldn’t tell them, the others found it inappropriate to ask, despite their curiosity.
After that, Dugu Yamo said to Feng Wu in a mocking tone, “When she gets back, you’ll see how petty you are! Qingluan will make you ashamed of yourself! Hmph!”
Feng Wu frowned.
She didn’t care about Dugu Yamo, so her words didn’t affect her, but —
Had Zuo Qingluan reached the peak of the Spiritual Lord stage already?
It seemed that Zuo Qingluan was making equally rapid progress.
And she was going to be back in six months!
Feng Wu clenched her fists in her sleeves and was desperate to become stronger. It was as if her blood was boiling.
One day, she would defeat Zuo Qingluan, her archenemy, in front of everyone!
“Xiao Wu —” Feng Xun was concerned. “Are you alright?”
Feng Wu nodded.
“You look tired.” He then lent Feng Wu a hand.
Feng Wu was speechless.
After separating from the white fairy, she fought almost to death against Zuo Qingxian, got chased around by Master Jue and Sefiro, and had almost been killed by the revived Zuo Qingxian…
