Feng Rushuang glanced at Qing Zhu before she turned and looked at Nan Xian."What about some snake soup?"
Nan Xian left Feng Ruqing's side. He took off his clothes to wrap it around the girl's half-naked body. He got up slowly and walked toward Qing Zhu expressionlessly.
"Master, it's not intentional. I saw nothing. It's true. You have got to believe me. Argh!"
Nan Xian did not care about Qing Zhu's trembling body. He grabbed hold of its neck like he was holding a dead snake in his hand. He walked out into the dark night calmly.
"No! I don't want to be made into snake soup! Princess, save me!"
Unfortunately, Qing Zhu was met with only dead silence then. There was only the cold night breeze and its pathetic state.
Feng Ruqing stared in the direction where they had left. She lowered her eyes slightly. There was a soft smile on her face. But, her expression was cold.
"The Mu family..."
'It seems that I need to face more powerful enemies in the future.
'I'll never forgive the people who have hurt Nan Xian before no matter who they are! Even if they are his family members!
'That kind of man has no right to be his father!'
Feng Ruqing seemed quite determined. She stared at the moon outside the room. She seemed to have made a decision in her heart...
***
The next morning.
The palace maids from Fengyun clan were standing outside the manor. They seemed confused and nervous.
"Guardian Hong Yu, do you know the reason why Young Lady has asked us to gather here early in the morning?"
Hong Yu was quite nervous too. She shook her head and said helplessly, "I also don't know. There might be something given that she called us so urgently."
She was stunned. She gazed at the door and her gaze was fixed there. She could not move her eyes away.
The girl was not in her usual red attire. She wore purple clothes and a green dress. Her hair was down like a waterfall. Her soft smile was so dazzling that people would forget to breathe just looking at her.
It is said that clothes complement one's looks. But, Feng Ruqing was the one who complemented the nature of the clothes.
She was bright like the sunshine and she stood elegantly like the noble green bamboo.
"Young Lady, " Hong Yu seemed shy."What do you need us to do for you this time?"
Feng Ruqing did not flirt with the palace maids like how she used to do. She was rather serious and she scanned the people in front of her.
"Great Elder Lei Yun asked you to protect me. Your talent must be quite outstanding among those in Fengyun clan. Your talent shouldn't be wasted here."
Hong Yu was silent.
She wanted to tell her that there were a lot of talented people in Fengyun Manor given that the elders were quite good at identifying talented people. But, they were the only ones who were willing to come to the princess's manor.
There was also a group of people who were unwilling to leave the sacred land of cultivation in Fengyun Manor for fear that their cultivation would be affected.
But, Hong Yu did not talk about that when she saw Feng Ruqing's happy face.
"So..." Feng Ruqing did not notice about Hong Yu's facial expression. She narrowed her eyes and continued talking, "I can supply you with an infinite number of Grade-4 spirit herbs! But, you must make a breakthrough in five months!"
In fact, Feng Ruqing knew about the situation even if Hong Yu did not mention anything.
Feng Ruqing was Nalan Yan's daughter. They would be valued by the elders when they agree to come and protect her.
But...
They would never want to sacrifice their own cultivation because they were talented people.
Status and position were important in this mainland. But, one's own strength was more important.
