Capítulo 47: Impending Scheme

Editor: Atlas Studios

Ji Fengyan was puzzled. She waved her hands to allow Linghe to leave first, while she sank into a deep confusion.

She looked at the dream stone she took back from Linghe, and then at the one in her room, and a bold conjecture formed silently in her head.

An immortal cultivator's cultivation was mostly built on spiritual energy and gathering the essence of heaven and earth into one's body. When she was cultivating using the spiritual energy in the ore, the ore had also been absorbing heaven and earth's essence at the same time, so—

Not only will Ji Fengyan's cultivation not turn these rare ores into waste residues, it can instead enhance its quality!

This discovery made Ji Fengyan fully satisfied!

She loved that she could still earn money while not holding up her cultivation!

After getting an answer, Ji Fengyan did not leave any spare time and happily rushed back to her room to continue her cultivation. Filled with satisfaction, she had completely not noticed Liu Huo's figure appearing at the entrance of her yard as he watched quietly at her back view gradually disappear in the room.

Under that pair of clearly defined eyes, it was difficult to tell what he was thinking.

At Ji Fengyan's place, fortunate events came one after another. However, at the City Lord's residence, a wave of gloom shadowed.

After returning from the stone betting store, Su Lingsheng had a persisting high fever and still lay unconscious on her bed without being able to get up. Lei Min stayed by her side for almost half a day until the physician fed her some medicine before Lei Xu summoned him.

"What exactly happened? Wasn't Lingsheng still fine when she left today? How did she become like this after she returned? Min'er, tell me what exactly happened? Lingsheng belongs to the eldest princess, if anything really happened to her, and the eldest princess blame it on us, we would not be able to bear it!" Lei Xu frowned as he sat in the hall scolding, and looked at Lei Min, who looked equally sombre.

Lei Min's mood was also unpleasant, and he became even more frustrated after being told off by Lei Xu, so he could only reveal all the things that had happened at the store previously.

"What? Ji Fengyan, that brat, had actually beat Lingsheng in stone betting?" Lei Xu widened his eyes in disbelief and felt that this was the greatest joke he had heard today.

"It is really true, but I also do not know exactly what had happened," Lei Min said in a low voice.

Lei Xu narrowed his eyes as his gaze turned complicated and difficult to understand.

"That brat was more troublesome than I had imagined. This Ji City's City Lord title definitely cannot be passed over to her; otherwise it will foil our great plans!" Lei Xu looked at his own son seriously.

"She wasn't like this in the past. Who knows what happened to her in the capital all these years to make her temperament become so stubborn, but… since she had proactively created trouble for Lingsheng, it shows that she is not as nonchalant as she looks. I'm afraid she is jealous of Lingsheng and my relationship," Lei Min spoke, feeling a little proud of himself.

"I don't care about the matters between Su Lingsheng and her, but if we cannot let her complete the marriage as soon as possible, the news that she is the new City Lord will eventually be exposed. We have to settle this quickly," Lei Xu rubbed his chin and said, "But luckily she is still young. I saw those people she had brought with her and each of them are injured. Ji City is in our control; it should not be difficult to capture that small brat."

"Father, since you have said this, does it mean you already have a plan?" Lei Min's eyes shone brightly.

Lei Xu smiled, nodded and said, "the mounts sent from the capital have arrived, tomorrow you shall accompany me to deliver the mounts to Ji Fengyan for her to choose from."
