"Say something!" Old Man Huyan glared at the emperor.
The emperor said, "What? Ah! Yes, that … Jun Linyuan, I think … he's pretty good … "
Before he could finish, the old man rolled his eyes at him.
"Well … he's not that good. I think he's just so-so … Maybe there's someone better …"
Before he could finish, the old man glared at him again.
Moreover, the old man was so fierce that he looked like he was going to eat someone alive. The problem was, the old man really did have what it took. One slap from him … and he could bring down the entire Northern Yan Kingdom.
"Fine, fine. You won't understand." Pursing his lips in disdain, Patriarch Huyan rose to his feet, put his hands behind his back, and was about to leave. He had only taken a few steps when he stopped and looked back at the emperor.
The emperor followed him in a hurry with an obsequious smile on his face.
Patriarch Huyan snorted. "That kid, in terms of talent, looks, and everything else, you won't find a second one like him in a hundred years!"
The emperor said, "Yes, yes …"
Patriarch Huyan said, "Don't be jealous. Your daughter isn't that lucky. Don't even think about it."
Look at his tone, he even had a hint of complacency.
The emperor felt like he had been shot in the knee …
He was sure that the old man had overheard his conversation with Liuxi. Liuxi … was doomed.
As expected, Patriarch Huyan smirked. "How dare he try to assassinate my daughter? Heh, he's got guts. "
The emperor didn't dare lie to him.
Patriarch Huyan said as he walked, "That kid, I'll see who dares to take her from me!"
He even threatened the emperor …
Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan were ready to return to the Junwu Empire.
When Feng Wu told Patriarch Huyan about it, the old man's face darkened and he wasn't very happy.
Feng Wu tugged at Patriarch Huyan's sleeve and tried to talk some sense into him, but the old man still pulled a long face.
Feng Wu said, "What's your cultivation level? You miss me? Whoosh! You can get to the Junwu Empire anytime you want. That's not a long distance for an expert like you. It's like your own backyard. "
Patriarch Huyan thought about it and realized that it was true …
"If that brat dares to bully you in the future, have someone send a letter to your Sixth Senior Brother." As Patriarch Huyan spoke to Feng Wu, he glared at the person who had abducted his Junior Sister.
Feng Wu said, "Yes, of course. No one would dare pick on me. As for Jun Linyuan … Gosh, Senior Brother, you make it sound like he's someone important to me … "
Patriarch Huyan said, "It better not be!"
Feng Wu cleared her throat.
"Alright, alright. Let's go. I don't have to worry about you anymore." The old man waved at Feng Wu and turned to go back into the house.
"Sixth Senior Brother." Feng Wu ran up to him and whispered in his ear.
Patriarch Huyan's eyes lit up. "Really?!"
Feng Wu said, "Yes, I wrote one for you, but then I realized that you'd like the one my master wrote better, so I left it there for you."
Patriarch Huyan carried her on his back as he trotted into the room. What Junior Sister … he had completely forgotten about her.
Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan got into the carriage.
Xuan Yi had transported this carriage all the way here, and it was the one Feng Wu and Feng Wu had used to set off in.
Jun Linyuan hadn't fully recovered from his internal injuries and needed to rest in bed. That was why he needed this luxurious carriage.
Feng Wu had planned to ride the horse and leave Jun Linyuan alone in the carriage.
However, Jun Linyuan was a fiend who always had a way to make Feng Wu stay with him.
Feng Wu noticed that Jun Linyuan kept looking at her curiously after she entered the carriage. She asked, "Are you curious?"
Jun Linyuan looked down at his book and said proudly, "Who's curious?"
Feng Wu chuckled.
Jun Xiaoyuan was curious now as well. She was becoming more and more like a human being instead of a god.
Feng Wu leaned against the wall of the carriage, put a pillow under her waist, and found the most comfortable position. Only then did she say, "I took a piece of divine iron from Sixth Senior Brother to repair your Immortal Slayer. But I can't take it for free. I have to give him something in return, right?
"I thought of the manual my master wrote for me, so I gave it to Sixth Senior Brother. He missed me so much that he almost cried. That manual was meant for me as well. Well, I'll give it to Sixth Senior Brother as a memento."
Jun Linyuan nodded, then added proudly, "You don't have to explain."
Feng Wu clicked her tongue inwardly.
Don't explain? Won't the crown prince keep feeling awkward if you don't explain? Feng Wu realized by now that Jun Linyuan was such a petty man. He would pull a long face when she didn't agree with him, and when she did, he would look like he didn't want to hear it. He was so … arrogant!
Feng Wu nodded. "I won't explain anymore, then."
Jun Linyuan didn't know what to say.
He lowered his head to read.
Seeing the frown on his face, Feng Wu couldn't help but chuckle. "Jun Linyuan, are you a child?"
Jun Linyuan threw a dirty look at Feng Wu but didn't say anything.
Feng Wu laughed even louder. "Jun Xiaoyuan, have you ever told me that you're adorable?"
Jun Xiaoyuan? Jun Linyuan, who had always wanted to be a father, darted a look at Feng Wu, and he couldn't help but blush a little.
However, he made a mental note: First, Mu Jiuzhou wasn't dead. Second, Mu Jiuzhou was still active ten years ago. Third, Mu Jiuzhou was very important to little Feng Wu.
When he thought of the third point … the teenager's face darkened again.
The carriage moved faster than expected, and after half a month, they arrived at the border of the Junwu Empire.
Northern Border City.
Northern Border City was located in the northwest of the Junwu Empire, and Dongsang was only eight hundred kilometers away from where they were.
Feng Xun's teasing voice rang out as soon as they entered the city. "Little Feng Wu, why don't we take a trip to the Dark Forest?"
The Dark Forest held a lot of memories for them.
Back in the Dark Forest, Feng Wu had pretended to be the ugly girl, tricked Feng Xun, set Jun Linyuan up, and stole the Immortal Spiritual Fruit … Feng Xun still gritted his teeth when he thought about it.
That was the first time Feng Wu had met them. Feng Wu thought that they had indeed left a deep impression on her.
Feng Wu chuckled. "That giant eagle alone was enough to drive us into a corner, and Jun Linyuan was fighting it back then. By the way, how powerful was that eagle?"
Feng Xun said, "The Spiritual Nation stage?"
Feng Wu was surprised. "Jun Linyuan was at the Spiritual Nation stage two years ago, and he's already at the peak of the Spiritual Sage stage now? Isn't this advancement speed too frightening? "
Feng Xun glanced at Feng Wu. "You're talking about other people? You were at the beginning stage of the Spiritual Nation stage when we left, and now you're at the peak of the Spiritual Nation stage. Don't you think that's amazing? "
Next to them, Xuan Yi hugged his sword and sighed inwardly.
He had actually had a fortuitous encounter recently, and had been cultivating in seclusion all this time. He had thought that there was no point comparing himself to others.
"How about we spend the night here?" Feng Xun suggested. "We've been walking for three days now. If I don't sleep in my bed soon, I'm going to collapse."
Feng Wu had been away from Northern Border City for more than a year, and it was a rare opportunity for her to come back. She was planning to take a good look around, and her eyes lit up.
However, Jun Linyuan was the one in charge, and she had the final say.
Hence, she turned to look at Jun Linyuan, but the crown prince was lying on his side on the soft seat and staring at the book in his hand, as if he was engrossed in it.
"Jun Linyuan?" Feng Wu looked at the crown prince eagerly.
Jun Linyuan didn't even look at her.
"Brother Jun? Brother?" Feng Wu gave him a pleading look.
"Ahem!"
Feng Xun couldn't help but chuckle when he heard the noise. Feng Wu was acting like a kitten that had put away its claws when she was begging for help.
Feng Wu wanted to hit Feng Xun for ruining her rhythm!
Jun Linyuan only darted a haughty look at Feng Wu. "Do you really want to stay here for one night?"
Feng Wu said, "Yes, of course!"
Feng Wu thought that Jun Linyuan would say yes, but the guy only darted a look at her and shook his head.
Shake his head? No way!
Pursing her lips, Feng Wu lowered her head like a pitiful little kitten.
All of a sudden, a hand tugged at her braid.
"Ssss —" Feng Wu winced in pain and looked up with a frown, only to hear the good-looking teenager speak.
"Get off the carriage," he said simply.
The girl's eyes lit up. "You promised!"
In fact, Feng Wu knew that Jun Linyuan had been ordering them to hurry the whole way back to the Junwu Empire.
Seeing Jun Linyuan nod in resignation, Feng Wu yelled, "Little Feng Xun, come to my old manor. You'll stay there tonight!"
Uncle Lan, the gatekeeper, was the only one in the Feng clan's old manor in Northern Border City. The others had gone back to the capital with Feng Wu.
Uncle Lan was so surprised that he almost didn't recognize Feng Wu.
"Uncle Lan, don't you recognize me?" Feng Wu jumped out of the carriage with a grin and nodded at him.
"Miss Wu! Miss Wu is back! "Uncle Lan's voice trembled with excitement." I recognize you! I recognize you! It's Miss Wu! "
Feng Wu was about to run into the old manor when she heard someone coughing inside the carriage.
Ah! She had almost forgotten about Jun Linyuan …
Feng Wu ran back to the carriage, pressed a button, and a clean footboard extended down from the carriage.
Uncle Lan then saw Miss Wu climb into the carriage. Soon, she was helping someone … a man!
She carefully helped a teenager out of the carriage and stealthily led him into the courtyard.
Wasn't it inappropriate for men and women to touch each other?
Moreover, why did their Fifth Young Lady look like … a little maidservant? Uncle Lan was bewildered.
"Wait, isn't she?!"
Uncle Lan cried out in surprise!
That was right. His Royal Highness and Young Lord Feng had been to the old manor a year ago. He had been the gatekeeper back then, so he remembered it very clearly.
Uncle Lan was a little confused. He didn't remember Miss Wu and His Royal Highness being that close back then, but why did they seem so close now?
Was the Feng clan's ancestral grave lit up?! Uncle Lan was thrilled!
Holding Jun Linyuan's arm, Feng Wu asked, "Are you going to be alright? Will your wounds be affected? Do you need Feng Xun to carry you? "
Feng Wu was genuinely worried, for Jun Linyuan's internal injuries were so severe that anyone else would have died by now.
"That's right, Boss Jun. How about I carry you?" Feng Xun said in a hurry.
However, Boss Jun only threw him a dirty look. That handsome face of his darkened eyes glinted with the glint of a knife.
Feng Xun cringed … What was wrong with him? He was just worried about Boss Jun.
Xuan Yi rolled his eyes at him.
Even Xuan Yi didn't like him … sob.
Just then, they heard a voice!
"Hey!"
"Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle! How dare you show up in front of me! Get off me!"
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle? That was such a familiar name!
Feng Wu and the others looked up and saw a giant eagle soaring in the sky.
The Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle spread its wings, casting a shadow over the ground.
And the person chasing the eagle was a familiar face as well.
"Yu Mingye? It's him? "Feng Xun couldn't believe his ears." What a coincidence! "
Feng Wu watched as Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle soared through the sky with Yu Mingye hot on its tail. She was amazed.
And Feng Xun had to remind her.
"Xiao Wu, it's that eagle! Don't you remember Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle? It was carrying you in its mouth! "Feng Xun tugged at Feng Wu's sleeve excitedly.
Feng Wu's face darkened … Why bring it up when it was so embarrassing?
Feng Xun didn't know how to read people's faces. Seeing that Feng Wu was ignoring him, he yelled at Yu Mingye, "Hey, Yu, what's wrong with you? You can't even take down an eagle?"
Yu Mingye and Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle were wreaking havoc in the sky above Northern Border City, and the people there were all hiding in their homes, trembling in fear.
At that moment, many people heard Feng Xun.
So did Yu Mingye and Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle.
They all turned to look in Feng Xun's direction!
Yu Mingye didn't know who he was looking at, but Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle recognized Feng Wu right away!
Oh my! It was her! It was her!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle recalled what happened over a year ago. Back then, it had been carrying this girl in its mouth … but the girl had gotten away!
Later, it sneaked a peek and realized that the girl was very familiar with the teenager who was chasing after her. Moreover, the teenager seemed to be fawning over the girl!
A hostage!
It had to take her hostage!
Teehee —
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle grinned in satisfaction. The next second, it swooped down at Feng Wu.
Wait!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle saw someone standing next to Feng Wu. It was … Holy shit! It was the teenager with the black sword who used to be so awesome!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle was so scared that it almost turned tail and ran, but it quickly realized that the young man with the black sword and the unlucky girl weren't in cahoots. Back then, it had captured the girl to threaten him, but the young man didn't care at all, and even told it to kill her.
So … he wouldn't do anything, would he?!
Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle was about to reach Feng Wu when Yu Mingye's anxious voice rang out. "Xiao Wu, get out of the way!"
However, to Yu Mingye's surprise, Feng Wu's eyes sparkled as she stared at Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle!
Revenge is a dish best served cold!
Instead of taking the easy way out, you just had to break into hell.
Oh, Giant Flaming Cloud Eagle. What should I say to you?
