“Miss Feng Wu, have you seen His Royal Highness?” The weeping maid was from the crown prince’s residence, and who usually followed Granny Gong around.
Feng Wu frowned. “Is Jun Linyuan not back yet?”
The girl, Xiangcao, nodded.
Feng Wu’s eyebrows knitted tighter. Somehow, she had a bad feeling about this.
Feng Xun arrived in a hurry when Feng Wu got back to the campsite.
“Xiao Wu, you’re finally back. Where have you been? I couldn’t find you anywhere! I was going to go to the other side to ask for your safe return!” Feng Xun sounded very anxious.
Feng Wu smiled wryly. “I’m alright. I was playing another role, that’s all.”
Feng Xun knew how well Feng Wu could disguise herself and felt relieved.
“That’s why I couldn’t find you anywhere on the other side. You were someone else. I lost that person I was following…”
Feng Xun scratched his head and said apologetically, “Xiao Wu, I’m sorry…”
Feng Wu waved her hands and was amused. “You might have lost the target, but I didn’t. I got something.”
Feng Xun was relieved to hear that. “Good, good. I knew it. Xiao Wu, you’re the best.
“So, what did you find?”
Actually, he didn’t think that Feng Wu would be able to obtain much useful information in such a short time, until Feng Wu told him what happened in the last few hours.
“What? You took Catnine’s mask and ransacked his storage room?
“And you pretended to be him, the man who faked his death?
“You then confronted Steward Mu and killed him? Hahaha —
“You know what Sefiro is going to do to you?
“What? Master Jue has Chaoge? Of course I know Master Jue. He’s Sefiro’s senior brother and a famous warrior of the grassland!
“What?! Master Jue is… Woah! That’s big news!
“What?! Master Jue even drew you a map so that you can have a go?
“Holy crap! Xiao Wu, do you know what this map means? It means that wherever the master teacher is, it’s going to be the core of the land of the spirit source this time, and there’s a high chance that we’ll find the seed of the spirit source there!
“This is great news, it really is. You uncovered so much useful stuff. Xiao Wu, you’re amazing! How did you do so many things in such a short period of time…”
Feng Xun couldn’t stop singing Feng Wu’s praises once he started.
Feng Wu was smiling at first, but not anymore.
“Chaoge is still locked in a dark basement with stale air. Normal people would feel dizzy if they remain in there for too long, let alone Chaoge, who’s injured.”
Feng Wu had wanted to treat Chaoge’s injuries, but it would be too obvious and wouldn’t do Chaoge any good. Therefore, Feng Wu didn’t treat her external injuries and only gave her some medicine for her internal injuries.
“Yes! We must rescue Chaoge!” Feng Xun pitied Chaoge as well. She was such a warm and passionate girl, but she was so badly hurt now.
“To save Chaoge, we have to find the master teacher first.” With a wry smile, Feng Wu took out a small brocade box. “The master teacher doesn’t have to be there in person. I just have to steal a streak of spiritual essence from him. With that, I’ll be able to remove the time bomb in Chaoge’s heart.”
