Princess Yan Ling said, “Even the royal family only has one descendant with that bloodline every generation! Mu… that person Left with the Divine Phoenix Blood. Is Feng Wu’s Divine Phoenix Blood related to him?”
“That’s very likely!” Yao Yuan nodded.
Ma Quanquan frowned. “She’s under Linghu’s protection. There’s nothing we can do.”
Princess Yanling smirked. “It’s just that we can’t do anything to her for the time being. For one, we can write to my father and ask him to send more capable cultivators here. For another, we can start a war on the continent of Jiuzhou.
“The Dongsang Kingdom and the Junwu Kingdom are at war. “Let’s go to the Dongsang Kingdom, then. ” Princess Yan Ling smirked.
Feng Wu, just you wait!
At the same moment, Feng Wu was still unconscious. When she woke up, three days had passed.
“You’re awake?” Feng Wu heard a calm voice.
The first person Feng Wu saw when she opened her eyes was Master Linghu.
“It’s you!” Feng Wu struggled to sit up and said in pleasant surprise, “I knew you would come.”
Master Linghu rolled his eyes at Feng Wu. “What if I couldn’t make it in time? You’re taking too much risk!”
Feng Wu smiled. “No, I know you’ll be here.”
Master Linghu snorted. “Where did you get that confidence?”
Feng Wu smiled again. “Fifth Senior Brother, please don’t pretend. Sixth Senior Brother has told me everything.”
Master Linghu stared at Feng Wu in bewilderment.
Feng Wu chuckled. “My sixth senior brother said that you were my fifth senior brother, the one who used to treat me very well!”
Master Linghu rubbed Feng Wu’s head. “Kiddo, do you remember something?”
Feng Wu shook her head. “Actually, I don’t remember what happened in the past. I only heard about it from you, Little Phoenix, and Sixth Brother…” Master Linghu nodded. “If you can’t remember it, don’t think about it. It’ll show up when you need it.”
Feng Wu nodded obediently.
Master Linghu sat down in front of Feng Wu. Seeing how obedient she was, he was amused. “Don’t you have anything to ask?”
Feng Wu moved closer and asked curiously, “Senior Brother, what’s going on with the Empire of Dayan? And what’s the status of the Yan Prince’s residence?
What’s the average level of their forces over there?”
Feng Wu had a lot of questions to ask, but Master Linghu wasn’t going to tell her.
He said, “If I tell you everything, you’ll only hear it in passing. It’s best if you can experience it yourself. Only then will you consolidate your cultivation and make a breakthrough.”
Feng Wu pouted. Her fifth senior brother wasn’t as easy to talk to as her sixth senior brother. If he were Patriarch Huyan, he would tell her everything if she gave him the lost puppy look.
Seeing the aggrieved look on Feng Wu’s face, Master Linghu couldn’t bring himself to see her like this. She was his only junior sister, and she was the apple of his eye.
At that thought, Master Linghu patted Feng Wu on the head and said grumpily, “The Dayan Empire is indeed a superior state to the Junwu Empire, which is a vassal state. We’ll have to start from our master…”
Feng Wu was astonished when Master Linghu told her about the origin of the continent.
“Is that so?
“Our Master was that capable?!
“Build a continent with his bare hands? I can’t believe it!”
Why was this continent called “Jiuzhou Continent”? Because Mu Jiuzhou had created this continent himself!
He had created this continent!
Mu Jiuzhou was a member of the royal family of the Dayan Empire and a
high-ranking official. According to Master Linghu, Mu Jiuzhou used to inherit the throne of the empire, but he abdicated shortly afterward and gave it to his nephew, while he built the continent himself.
That was why the continent was named after Mu Jiuzhou.
After Mu Jiuzhou died, the continent fell apart. The nine provinces were divided into nine kingdoms, which were what they were now.
The Junwu Empire used to be the Junwu Province.
Seeing how surprised Feng Wu was, Master Linghu said, “Master is unprecedentedly powerful, but we don’t know why he didn’t become the emperor back then and why he built a continent.”
All of a sudden, Master Linghu stared at Feng Wu. “Our Master is still alive, isn’t he?”
Feng Wu nodded.
Master Linghu said, “As long as my Master is alive…”
Feng Wu said, “But Master can’t come out right now. He…”
Master Linghu waved his hand. “I know. It won’t be that easy for someone as capable as him to change his fate. He’ll come out one day.”
Feng Wu nodded solemnly. “That’s right. He’ll come out one day.”
Master Linghu looked at Feng Wu and said, “Since the Dayan Empire is here, this battle is bound to happen.”
Feng Wu asked, “Are you saying that Dayan will target the Junwu Empire?”
Master Linghu nodded. “Yes.”
Feng Wu said, “Dayan is so powerful that the Junwu Empire is nothing compared to it.”
Master Linghu nodded.
Feng Wu asked, “Is there no other way?” Master Linghu stared at Feng Wu. “There’s one.”
“Feng Wu” asked, “What?”
Master Linghu said, “You and Jun Linyuan die, your soul will be destroyed, and you’ll never be able to reincarnate.”
Feng Wu was astonished.
Master Linghu said, “That’s not all. The same thing will happen to my master’s disciples, as well as my master himself! They’ll never be able to reincarnate. If that’s the case, I don’t think Dayan will attack the Junwu Empire.” Feng Wu clenched her fists in frustration. “How can this happen? How…”
Master Linghu sighed, rubbed Feng Wu’s head, and said in a serious tone, “Junior Sister, your Senior Brothers can withstand it for a year or two, but if the empire sends all its capable cultivators in, we may not be able to withstand it either. The only option is…
“My Master has to come back.”
Master Linghu stared at Feng Wu and stressed each word. “Only my master can solve this crisis. Remember that?”
An idea struck Feng Wu all of a sudden. “So, Sixth Brother said that an enemy was secretly searching for my Master and my senior brothers. That’s why my senior brothers are often elusive?”
Master Linghu nodded.
Feng Wu said, “That’s why my sixth senior brother told me not to tell anyone about our relationship. The enemy is too powerful. I thought that with how capable my senior brothers are, I wouldn’t be afraid of anyone. But now that I think about it, the enemy is from the Dayan Empire.”
Master Linghu nodded again. “You’re smart.”
Feng Wu smiled bitterly. “Is the Dayan Empire that invincible?”
Master Linghu said, “Junior Sister, please don’t worry. The Empire of Dayan is indeed a formidable force because there are so many capable cultivators. In terms of Spiritual Saints alone, they have ten times more than our continent.”
Feng Wu said, “Ten times!”
Master Linghu said, “But it’s only ten times. They’re much more powerful than us, but it’s still within reach. All the capable cultivators of our continent have been making rapid progress in the past few years. I think in another ten years, they’ll only be eight times better than us.”
Ten years… eight times…
Feng Wu thought to herself, “That’s just a drop in the bucket.”
Luckily, the Dayan Empire wasn’t that powerful. Otherwise, Feng Wu wouldn’t Imow what to do.
Before she knew it, Feng Wu had blurted it out.
Master Linghu smiled. “No, it’s not like that. After all, cultivation progresses step by step. Moreover, people can grow old and die, and there’s no such thing as immortality. Therefore, people of the Empire of Dayan will die when they reach old age. The old ones can’t survive forever. When the capable ones die, new ones take their place. That’s all. They may seem impressive, but it’s only because they have been around for a long time.”
Feng Wu nodded. “We can handle them if we try hard.”
“By the way, my mother…” At that thought, Feng Wu told Master Linghu that Princess Yan Ling had poisoned her mother.
However, Master Linghu nodded. “I know that.”
Feng Wu asked, ‘What? You know about that?”
Master Linghu glanced at Feng Wu and said something that shocked her. “Our Master told me to guard you in the imperial capital. Of course, I know what happened to you.”
Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.
It was her Master…
Her beautiful master had told her fifth senior brother to protect her… Feng Wu didn’t know how to react…
Master Linghu said, “Your mother’s poison…”
Feng Wu took a bottle out of her chest pocket and handed it to Master Linghu. “This is the bottle I took from Princess Yan Ling when I fought her. Please have a look.”
Feng Wu and Master Linghu examined it together.
Soon, they exchanged looks and said in unison, “We’re still short of one ingredient.”
Feng Wu nodded. “That’s right. Although it’s the right medicine, the toxin has been in my mother’s system for a long time. This can neutralize the toxin, but she’s too weak to withstand it. Therefore, we have to add the dragon stone plant.”
Master Linghu said, “The Junwu Empire doesn’t have it.”
Feng Wu asked, “Where can I find it, then?”
Master Linghu looked at Feng Wu and said, “The royal palace of the Dongsang Kingdom has it.”
Master Linghu couldn’t leave the Junwu Empire or even the imperial capital…
“I’ll go!” Feng Wu clenched her fists. “I was going to the Dongsang Kingdom to find my third senior brother anyway, and I’m going to take that plant while I’m at it. There’s no time to waste. I’m leaving now!”
After that, Feng Wu turned to leave.
“Wait.” Master Linghu stopped Feng Wu.
Feng Wu looked at him in bewilderment.
Master Linghu handed Feng Wu a metal ball. “Take it.”
Feng Wu asked, “What’s that?”
Master Lingnu said, “It’S a gilt rrom me. Keep It well. It’ll worK perrect1Y witn the arm.”
Holding the ball the size of a pigeon egg, Feng Wu looked at Master Linghu in bewilderment.
Master Linghu smiled. “Smear your blood on it, and it’ll be yours..”
