Si Mobai looked at her. Her eyes were glowing with determination. It looked as if there were colourful lights flowing under her eyes. They were that vivid and charming. How could he bear to see others hurting such a person?
Feng Tianlan looked into his deep, peach blossom eyes. She could sort of guess what he was thinking about. She leaned slightly closer to him. “Mobai, even if they are gone, there will still be others. You can’t just kill everyone in the world. I need to get stronger to protect myself, to protect you, and to protect everyone I cared about.”
She didn’t have the ability to do that now, but she would work harder to catch up to him and fight alongside him.
After hearing those words, Si Mobai finally wavered. He stroked her silky hair gently. “I will listen to you.”
He had been wanting her to grow, but every time she was bullied, he couldn’t wait to cut them into pieces. How could he let the apple of his eye get bullied by others?
Feng Tianlan smiled with her lips curled at the corners. She was thinking that Shen Yunya and the others should be going back to Xuantian Continent soon. Once they were gone, Tu Xiupei would become Shen Qingdai. Although she couldn’t say that she was the real deal, she wasn’t about to let Tu Xiupei assume this identity for nothing and let her take advantage of it.
“Mobai, help me deliver a letter when you reach Xuantian Continent,” Feng Tianlan said in a deep voice. As long as this letter reached that person, that person could definitely make Xi Jin disown Tu Xiupei and prevent him from marrying Shen Yunya.
At the moment, that was all she could do.
Si Mobai promised without asking for the reason behind it, “Alright.”
After writing the letter, Feng Tianlan told Si Mobai the name and status of that person. She could finally relax. This way, she could reduce the harm done to Xi Jin.

Just as Gu Nansheng was coming back, she saw Si Mobai at a distance, walking towards her. She wanted to hide subconsciously, but her body acted in defiance of her orders. Her eyes stared at him uncontrollably.
He was extremely different in manner from the time he was with Feng Tianlan the first time she met him. He had been gentle then. This time, she could feel his strong aura from a distance, a coldness that pushed people a thousand miles away from him.
His steady steps, his tall and straight body, his extremely handsome face, and his domineering gaze of a king from the heaven gave him the appearance of a celestial being walking towards her slowly under the sunlight. She couldn’t help but have feelings for him.
Watching him getting closer to her, her heart palpitated uncontrollably as if it was about to jump out of her chest. She had never experienced this feeling before.
Looking at him, she counted the distance between the two of them in her heart. Ten steps, seven steps, five steps, three steps, two steps, one…
Si Mobai’s face was cold as if there was no around him. However, he kept precisely the distance of an inch away from her as he walked past her. He didn’t look at her, not even a glance.
Gu Nansheng felt as if her heart stopped when he walked past her. The redness on her cheeks disappeared instantly. She couldn’t help but turn around and looked at Si Mobai. “Lord Wargod…”
However, Si Mobai did not turn around or reply. He didn’t stop at the call of his name.
Gu Nansheng couldn’t help but feel disappointed as she looked at his retreating figure getting further and further away from her. As she slowly regained her senses, she started castigating herself in her heart. “Gu Nansheng, what are you doing? That was Feng Tianlan’s fiancé! You can’t think about him or like him. You can’t become a despicable person who interferes with others’ relationship.”
She was castigating herself while standing at the same spot where she had seen him. At last, she finally able to suppress the hints of affection that bloomed and regain her complexion.
“So you like the Wargod?” Tu Xiupei of the Xianyue Building had seen everything that had just happened. She suddenly had an idea.
Gu Nansheng helped Feng Tianlan before. What would happen if Gu Nansheng were to fight with her for Si Mobai?
