Chapter 1218: Arrival in Yan Country
Feng Fuce gazed coldly at him through the mirror with his thin eyes.This made Lu Wang feel a chill run up his spine.
"Lord Demon, please don’t be angry, I..."
Before he could finish, Feng Fuce suddenly let out a chuckle on the other side of the mirror.
Lu Wang was taken aback and, on closer inspection, saw that Feng Fuce had a calm, faint smile.
He said, "Your personality is somewhat similar to mine."
"Alright, you can stay at the Heavenly Court for now. Just so happens I have something for you to do."
"Help me keep an eye on an immortal from the Heavenly Court, called Star Lord Yuan Qing."
Lu Wang was surprised, "Yuan Qing?"
Feng Fuce raised an eyebrow, "What? Do you know him?"
Lu Wang shook his head, "I’m not familiar with him, but A ruo has been in close contact with him over the past few days."
Feng Fuce squinted, "Then you’d better remind your friend Shitou not to trust that person too much."
"Alright..." Lu Wang finished and then muttered, "A ruo is not an ordinary rock."
Feng Fuce was even more surprised.
This dull black bear has now even learned to talk back for a girl?
It’s more like how he defended Bai Zhi’er.
So, on Feng Fuce’s handsome face, there wasn’t a hint of blame.
He just stared at Lu Wang for a while before coldly saying, "Impressive."
With that, the scene in the mirror disappeared.
Lu Wang felt unjustly treated and pursed his lips.
It had been a while since Lord Demon scolded him; suddenly being scolded felt rather friendly.
...
That night, Bai Zhi’er entered a dream.
After her mana had greatly advanced, although her body was asleep, her divine sense could roam around, and she wouldn’t feel tired the next day.
She landed right outside Yuan Ruxin’s house.
Yan Country lived up to its name; even in the coldest winter, there was only a howling cold wind and not a bit of snow.
In contrast, in the Capital of Great Chu, snow was already fluttering down.
Bai Zhi’er arrived at the deepest night of winter.
She looked around from side to side; Feng Fuce hadn’t caught up yet.
But he was probably close by now.
Because Feng Fuce found her more easily.
Bai Zhi’er walked to the doors of the Regent King Mansion, intending to knock and visit.
Even though she was using her divine sense outside, to facilitate things, she allowed everyone to see her.
But only at night.
Once she woke up, the divine sense would naturally disappear.
Just as Bai Zhi’er was about to knock, the broad door was pulled open from inside.
Someone was crying and cursing, "Get out! Not just anyone can pretend to be my uncle’s child!"
It was Yuan Ruxin’s voice.
She pushed a woman out, almost colliding with Bai Zhi’er!
Bai Zhi’er quickly stepped aside to avoid her.
The woman barely steadied herself, with a two-year-old girl in her arms!
She pointed at Yuan Ruxin and shouted, "You’re so lacking in virtue, if the ancestors of the Yuan Family knew, you’d face retribution!"
"I’m telling you, you may not want to split the inheritance now, but once the Emperor’s decree comes, you’ll end too!"
Yuan Ruxin stomped her foot in anger, "Get out of here!"
She then turned and saw Bai Zhi’er standing there.
Yuan Ruxin’s eyes widened, "Master? Why are you here!"
Bai Zhi’er smiled, "I just arrived, but what is this..."
She looked towards the woman, whose eyes were filled with unfamiliarity and suspicion as she looked at Bai Zhi’er.
Yuan Ruxin said, "It’s a long story! This woman brought a child, claiming to be my uncle’s seed."
"But my uncle has been dead for over two years, there’s no way to verify it, she must be lying!"
The woman grew anxious and pulled out a jade pendant from her bosom.
"You say I’m lying, but do you recognize this jade pendant? Each member of the Yuan Family has one. This was given to me by your uncle!"
