Back at the Feng Mansion, Fire Phoenix flapped its wings and flew out from the inside the house directly into Feng Jiu’s arms. It said happily, “Mistress, you are back at last!”
Feng Jiu stroked Fire Phoenix’s feathers and said with a smile, “I’m back. Is everything all right at home?” She saw Leng Shuang who came over to them.
“Mistress.” Leng Shuang called out. Her cold face wreathed into smiles seeing Feng Jiu’s return.
“Everything’s fine. I’m here guarding the place. What can happen?” Fire Phoenix answered triumphantly, telling her that the whole time it had been here, everything went on as usual without incident.
“Please go in and rest first, Mistress. I will ask the kitchen to prepare some food and some hot water..” After saying this, Leng Shuang turned to leave.
“Let’s go!” Feng Jiu held out a hand to let Fire Phoenix perch on her arm and walked inside.
Fire Phoenix inquired about her trip this time. When she got home, several small beasts from the space came out. Fire Phoenix followed Cloud Devouring Beast and others roaming around in the mansion and listened to Cloud Devouring Beast’s story about what their mistress encountered when she went away…
Earlier on the way here, Leng Hua briefly recounted recent events in the Heavenly Pill Tower. When she arrived at the mansion, Feng Jiu went back to her room and took a bath after a meal. Having told them to find her if they needed anything, she went into the room to have a rest.
Until, when it was dark, Feng Jiu who was still in slumber awakened by a knock on the door.
“Mistress, the Tower sent news. Black Market’s people are here.”
Feng Jiu turned her body over. After getting dressed, she opened the door and walked out. “Is the Master of the Black Market here already?”
“Yes.” Leng Hua nodded his answer. “His condition may not be very encouraging. The messenger reported that Fan Lin asked you to come quickly.”
“Go.” Feng Jiu went out. Only Fire Phoenix that perched on a branch quietly followed her. As for Cloud Devouring Beast and others, they and Leng Shuang stayed in the mansion.
The Feng Mansion was located not far away from the Heavenly Pill Tower. With their quickened pace, not long after, the two entered through the back door and went directly to the rear courtyard. As soon as they entered, they saw many secret guards there. Each of them possessed the best strength. Seeing their sudden appearance, those secret guards made attack gestures in an instant.
“Mistress.” Du Fan greeted her. Those men’s expressions changed a little and stopped their actions.
“How is his condition?” She asked as she went in.
“From what I heard from Fan Lin, it’s not very encouraging. He’s inside now. Mistress, please come and take a look quickly.” Du Fan answered and followed her in.
“Are you Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu?” An old man stepped forward and stopped Feng Jiu to pose this question.
“Yes.” She answered and looked at the old man in front of her. “Is there a problem?”
The old man watched Feng Jiu attentively from top to bottom. When he was about to speak, Ancient Beast Fire Phoenix came flying and perched at Feng Jiu’s shoulder. “I’m here, too.”
“Please Ghost Doctor, you must save my Master.”
Feng Jiu looked at him deeply. “Wait until I’ve seen his situation.” As soon as she gave this answer, she went inside.
Fan Lin came out of the room and happened to see Feng Jiu coming in. “Mistress, here you are.”
“Let’s talk inside.” Feng Jiu answered while walking into the room. When they came into the inner room, she saw a man lying on the bed.
After working together for so long, it was the first time she met the Master of the Black Market.
