That beauty was indeed ferocious. However, she was rather kind. Fortunately, he didn’t offend her. He wouldn’t offend her in the future either. After all, she was the first person who didn’t look down on him.
Feng Tianlan gave him a Grade Two Marrow Cleansing Pill and a Grade Three Vitality Enhancing Pill. These were pills that could help him cleanse his marrows and advance into an Earth Supreme. Therefore, Shi Moning felt grateful. However, it wasn’t easy for him, who was always fooling around, to say thank you.
“I heard recently that the United Mercenary Regiment is recruiting members. I want to give it a try. That way, I can be closer to Lan’er.” Shi Moning pulled another leaf out of nowhere and put it in his mouth. He shook his crossed legs in a carefree manner. However, a different kind of light was currently shining in his shrewd eyes.
Feng Tianlan arrived at Chen Xinyi’s courtyard. She was lying on a stone table in the courtyard as she stared blankly ahead. Her face was sullen. She seemed like she hadn’t noticed Feng Tianlan’s arrival.
“Miss Chen.”
When Chen Xinyi heard that call, she raised her head and looked at the woman, who looked like a goddess that appeared out of the blue. She was stunned for a while. “You are?”
“Feng Tianlan.”
When Chen Xinyi heard that name, she stood up abruptly and stared at her cautiously. “You… Why are you here?”
Feng Tianlan was the Demon King’s fiancée. Was she here to harm her because it wasn’t enough to just harm her sister?
Seeing her in such a flustered manner, Feng Tianlan frowned. She then asked bluntly, “You seem like you don’t know that something had happened to Chen Xinlu?”
“Wasn’t my sister given to a peddler by you and the Demon King?” Chen Xinyi was blaming her. Although her sister didn’t treat her well, she was still her sister after all. Besides, the Demon King was her love rival. Therefore, she didn’t want to see his fiancée either.
“You didn’t know that she self-destructed at the United Mercenary Regiment?” Feng Tianlan was really surprised. Rumor of the self-destruction incident that had happened a few days ago had spread all over Lin’an City. Yet Chen Xinyi actually didn’t know about it?
“Self-destructed at the United Mercenary Regiment?” Chen Xinyi’s complexion instantly turned pale. She then ran out. “Master Shen.”
Master Shen was there. Besides, if a strong person were to self-destruct, someone would definitely die. She was wondering how Master Shen was currently doing. Could he have…?
When Chen Xinyi thought about that, she was so anxious that she almost cried. She needed to find him.
Shi Yiqing bumped into Chen Xinyi, who ran out in a flustered manner. He then held her. “Cousin, where are you going?” he asked.
“I am going to look for Master Shen. Nothing must happen to him,” she replied.
Shi Yiqing immediately understood what she was saying. He then grabbed her wrist. “Master Shen was carried away by the Demon King. You won’t find him even if you go looking for him.”
“Carried away by the Demon King?” Chen Xinyi raised her head and gave Shi Yiqing a look of disbelief.
Shi Yiqing responded with a soft ‘uh-huh.’ He said, “I just heard about it too. I came over here to tell you that…”
Chen Xinyi regained her senses. She turned around and ran towards Feng Tianlan as she pleaded, “Demon Princess Consort, please ask the Demon King to let go of Master Shen. One cannot sell the cow and drink its milk. How can he keep both you and Master Shen to himself at the same time?”
“I allow him to do that.” Feng Tianlan tugged at the corners of her mouth. “Miss Chen, your sister self-destructed and died. Shouldn’t you be concerned?”
She had bewitched Chen Xinyi to the point where she was still thinking about him at times like these. It was really sinful.
“What?” Chen Xinyi was stunned. Her complexion became even paler. “You said my sister self-destructed and died?”
Feng Tianlan nodded her head gently. “It was Chen Xinlu who self-destructed in the United Mercenary Regiment. Therefore, I am here to ask you some questions.”
