章 83: Fu Chen Who Was Wronged

編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation

Nalan Jing's face darkened. He felt that what he said just now was useless.

"Cousin." Feng Ruqing acted as if she did not notice Nalan Jing's response. She smiled and patted Nalan Jing's shoulder. "The time is late now. I should head back. If you're free, do come to the princess's manor and visit me."

Feng Ruqing turned and waved goodbye at Nalan Jing when Nalan Jing had just recovered from his stupor. Feng Ruqing slowly disappeared from Nalan Jing's sight.

Nalan Jing was stunned. He could not recover himself completely as he stared at Feng Ruqing's disappearing back.

The sky was blue.

Fu Chen was seen squatting down. His eyes were red and it seemed that he was treated unfairly.

After a while, a familiar person appeared in front of him. He grunted and turned away, refusing to look at the person who had appeared out of nowhere.

Qing Han stood up and looked at Feng Ruqing fearfully. "Our guardian, you've come."

Feng Ruqing patted Qing Han's head then turned to look at Fu Chen. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you angry?"

"Hmph!" Fu Chen's face clearly showed anger. "There's a Grade-3 spirit herb and yet you did not allow me to eat it. I've been hungry for over a thousand years now; are you so cruel as to let me stay hungry forever?"

Feng Ruqing's heart softened at the sight of Fu Chen's anguished face.

"I promise you. I'll improve my strength soon. When I reach True Warrior tier, I'll be able to grow Grade-3 spirit herbs for you. Then, you can eat as many as you want."

"Really?" Fu Chen's eyes sparkled. "Are you telling the truth?"

Feng Ruqing's eyes narrowed and smiled. "So, do you know of any way that I can improve my strength in a short time? So that you can eat delicious food soon."

"..."

Fu Chen almost cried.

He knew that nothing good would happen when this woman appeared. Indeed, she came and wanted to extort him.

"I don't!"

"Fu Chen." Feng Ruqing picked up the small fellow whose eyes were swollen now. Her smile became wider. "You lied to me before. You told me that the Divine Herbs Sect was dissolved. But, now I know that it still exists. Shouldn't you be explaining yourself? My status as your guardian is too unstable."

She was too busy these few days to work this incident out with Fu Chen. She could now ask him for a good explanation now that she was free.

Fu Chen was stunned as looked at Feng Ruqing. "Does the Divine Herbs Sect still exist?"

It was impossible. The sect master was dead. The people of the Divine Herbs Sect were almost wiped out. Those people who were left were people with no true strength. Even the true soul of the Divine Herbs Sect was transferred into this medium.

'Divine Herbs Sect… How could it still exist?'

"Why would I lie to you?" Feng Ruqing's eyes narrowed again. "This technique of growing spirit herbs originated from the Divine Herbs Sect. No one knew about it even if you were at a high position in Divine Herbs Sect. Now, that you have imparted this knowledge to me. It is like pushing me into a fire pit."

"But… but…" Fu Chen lowered his head in shame. "I don't know why there's still a Divine Herbs Sect in this world. That Divine Herbs Sect must be fake."

Feng Ruqing smiled brightly and looked down at Fu Chen. "I don't care whether it's real or fake. That Divine Herbs Sect does have the ability to grow spirit herbs. Won't you show me how to improve my strength so that I am strong enough to tackle this Divine Herbs Sect?"

"... "

Fu Chen soon lost the desire to talk. He now knew that Feng Ruqing had come today just to extort him.
