“Yes, of course. Thank you, Your Majesty.” Feng Wu beamed at him.
Ranmil was so angry that she thought she was going to lose her mind.
How could he do that?!
She was the one who had suggested using the seal as the stakes. Giving it to Feng Wu was like slapping her in the face.
And everyone was watching.
What would Jun Linyuan think of her?
The seal wasn’t what she wanted the most. She wanted Jun Linyuan to regret it!
She wanted Jun Linyuan to regret choosing Feng Wu over her!
Ranmil still tugged at Emperor Wu’s sleeve.
Emperor Wu took Ranmil’s hand and comforted her. “I’ll give you something else, I promise.”
But Ranmil only wanted to save face in front of Feng Wu.
Before she could think of anything, they heard footsteps outside.
It was none other than Lady Northern Feng, Feng Xun’s mother.
“Xiao Wu!” She was thrilled to see Feng Wu and couldn’t stop looking her up and down.
Feng Wu smiled and said, “Why are you so worried about me?”
After making sure that everything was fine with Feng Wu, Lady Northern Feng heaved a sigh of relief. “Xiao Wu, I was so scared. I thought my heart was going to stop when you fought that Spiritual King. I’m so glad to see you back. Did His Royal Highness save you?”
Emperor Wu and the others looked at Feng Wu as well. They also wanted to know how Feng Wu had gotten away from the Spiritual King.
But Feng Wu was even more curious.
“You all know about the battle. How?” She had thought that no one would know.
Ranmil was going to have a headache.
She had been so excited about defeating Feng Wu, but now, Feng Wu had stolen the spotlight again.
She remembered that Feng Wu had risen by a whole stage, and didn’t want to hear about it anymore.
“Your Majesty, I have a headache…” Ranmil took Emperor Wu’s hand and wanted to lead him away.
But Feng Wu wouldn’t let that happen.
She had already started talking.
“Consort Ranmil mentioned my battle against the Spiritual King as well, but I don’t recall seeing anyone around. Why does it seem that everyone knows about it? Consort Ranmil didn’t tell me why. Is it some sort of secret?”
Lady Northern Feng took Feng Wu’s hand and smiled. “Speaking of that, we have Consort Ranmil to thank.”
Ranmil didn’t want to hear another word about it.
Somehow, Lady Northern Feng just wouldn’t stop talking.
“Xiao Wu, Consort Ranmil is so modest. She paid a big price for you. You really should thank her properly.”
Feng Wu asked, “Really? What did Consort Ranmil do for me?”
Lady Northern Feng immediately told Feng Wu everything about how Ranmil had located her with the crystal ball.
WHAT?!
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched.
That was to say, they had seen everything, including her successive advancements!
