“I see!” Feng Xun smacked his own forehead. “He used this inferior jade precisely because it’s the most important thing. He even put it in the most obvious spot. He must have thought that we would miss it. Well, I almost did!
“But how did you notice it?” Feng Xun asked Feng Wu in bewilderment.
How did Feng Wu notice it?
She didn’t at first, but after becoming a Level 9 Spiritual Lord, something changed in her, and she seemed to be able to detect…
The energy of a Magic Soul Vine.
Feng Wu opened her palm, revealing a small plant.
“Hey, what’s that?” Feng Xun asked curiously. When he saw the sapling, he said, “What’s this grass with four leaves?”
Feng Wu couldn’t tell either.
She only vaguely knew that it had grown out of her body and had the energy of the Magic Soul Vine. Could it be a baby Magic Soul Vine?
She recalled that someone had put the vine’s poison in the Seed of Spirit Source when she tried to absorb it. She was poisoned, and Jun Linyuan had to swap bodies with her to refine the vine and the seed for her.
Now that Feng Wu had used up the seed, was this sapling the outcome of Jun Linyuan’s refinement?
“Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu?”
Feng Xun called her name when he saw that she was lost in thought.
Feng Wu woke up from her reverie and heard approaching footsteps.
Hence, she didn’t reply.
Reinforcements had finally arrived.
At the foot of the mountain.
It had been a fierce battle, and Jun Linyuan could barely walk on his own. Feng Wu helped him down the mountain.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, they were welcomed by high-ranking officials.
Master Dugu, Lord Mu, Feng Yanfeng, and many others were present.
Feng Wu looked in Master Dugu’s direction and saw a familiar figure. It was Master Zuo.
Their gazes met, and both narrowed their eyes.
Zuo Ming gave her a warning look.
He regretted his decision. If he had known that Feng Wu would come back alive, he would never have revealed his identity.
Therefore, he had to warn Feng Wu not to expose him.
Otherwise, he would kill her mother!
How dare he threaten her with her mother! Feng Wu hated it when other people tried to threaten her!
She was filled with rage.
She wanted to kill Zuo Ming right here and now to eliminate the threat, but…
In the end, she only took a deep breath.
She would kill Zuo Ming, but not now.
Although she was a Level 9 Spiritual Lord already, it still wasn’t enough to kill Zuo Ming.
She could wait. She was still improving, whereas Zuo Ming would remain at that level. Soon, she would be able to kill him herself!
She gave him one last look before she turned away.
Well.
Zuo Ming smirked inwardly. He decided it was because she didn’t dare offend the powerful Zuo family, even with Jun Linyuan as her patron.
“Your Royal Highness, Miss Feng…” As the official in charge of daily affairs on this trip, Lord Mu was kept busy. He hurried over and wanted to give Jun Linyuan a hand.
