Chapter 447 "Feng Shen's Target"

Feng Shen's got some good eyes there. This girl is no ordinary person…..

Of course, the fact that he ended up b.u.mping into the girl after getting lost in the black fog was a complete accident. He only knew Ling Yue was in the Northwest but not where.

Coming was a must for the man, after all, he and Feng Shen were practically real brothers due to their past history together. Therefore, to hear the younger lad claiming he's found a sweetheart in Da Xia and wish to pa.s.s on the second piece of the Phoenix Manor's family heirloom too, its only natural someone must come in person to verify whether the girl was worthy or not.

To be clear, this family heirloom didn't simply symbolize the future head of the Phoenix Manor, it also held absolute authority over all of the a.s.sets under its name. To see the Phoenix Edict (heirloom) was equivalent to seeing the family chief, that's the absolute rule every subordinate working under the House must follow.

Sadly this trip into Da Xia to meet his future sister-in-law wasn't without its hurdles though. Cong Lu already bypa.s.sed Ling Yue once outside the royal study room, a serious blunder for him, then now he was welcomed by the scene of the la.s.s hugging it up with another boy!

This undoubtedly left the man quite displeased inside at first because his brother was worrying for the girl's safety back in North Qing while this one was philandering around with another boy back here, anyone would be annoyed by this fact.

Fortunately his misconception was quickly corrected after further a.s.sessment. Cong Lu was a third element reincarnation master, he can easily discern the expressions made by a person on the surface. That's why he can tell there were no happiness in the la.s.s's eye, but rather it's an indifferent coldness like it's a bother.

I hope this time the Phoenix Edict can bring happiness to Feng Shen…. Secretly sighing at what occurred to the former Phoenix Lord, Cong Lu kicks his horse to catch up to the main party.

A day later.

In response to that wonderful news, the man in white currently standing inside the study room definitely had a fluctuation in his eyes.

"Dao Nu, reward them."

While this undoubtedly delighted the soldier who was following Dao Nu (Feng Shen's body guard) out for his prize, Housekeeper Mu on the other hand was rather confused by the report.

“Young Master, when did Cong Lu send a gift? From what I heard he's currently out hunting with the Fifth Princess isn't he?"

Feng Shen and Cong Lu were both raised under the watchful eye of this elder. But unlike the always sickly boy here, the latter was much more brilliant in his achievements and quickly met his father's expectation.

“Yes he's out hunting, but he's also out sending a gift for me. Teacher, don't you think our North Qing's fifth princess is a good match for Da Xia's sixth prince?" Though he didn't make his emotions perfectly clear, but that inexplicable grin had gave him away.

If my calculations are correct then that Xia Hou Qi should be having quite a headache over the pestering of that unruly girl by now.

"If she didn't have such a temperament then how can the wedding happen? Oh Teacher, it's been a long time since North Qing's royal family held a wedding don't you think?" Closing the ledger in his hands, Feng Shen didn't even bother to hide his scheme anymore.

Sure enough, Mr. Mu only needed one glance to understand the lad's intent.

Unlike everyone else in the public, only this elder truly knew what his young lord's personality was. Though on the surface Feng Shen can appear to be very gentle and easy to talk to, but in reality he's super stingy, especially when someone else was conniving after his stuff.

Aiya, Prince Hou Qi ah Prince Hou Qi, of all the people you can provoke out there why must you provoke our young lord here. You better pray to the heavens for your own blessing this time. Shaking his old head, the elder reveals a look of sympathy that's unbefitting of his old age.

While all of this was going on in one end, Ling Yue on the other hand was having a blast. She's now able to wield a greater degree of freedom due to Qing's Bi's presence, which was a G.o.dsend for the la.s.s to test out her new black spirit smoke on the black fog.

To put it into perspective of how wonderful her newfound ability was, anything below the eighth rank for the wild spirit beasts are no longer a threat. She can literally tear them apart at will, which has also indirectly brought her a little fortune of beast cores from all the hunting she's been doing.

During the day she would go hunting and improve her black spirit smoke, at night she would return to Underground City #9 with Jin Wu Monster to earn some more Illumination pills. This was definitely the most ideal training ground she can hope for.

Then perhaps it's due to their excessive outings at night, even Lan Caier and A'bone too had caught wind of the Underground City's existence. With them four together, the group has now officially formed a new team for the night: Ling Yue specialized in the Novice area, Lan Caier and A'bone for the intermediate area, and Jin Wu Monster had the high level area all to himself.

“Maybe I should change my place of operations soon." After obtaining her much needed five hundred Illumination pills after three days of extortion, Ling Yue felt like its time she moved on due to the limits of this area.

But before then, she must make another trip to the exchange office.
