Chapter 678 [Listen to the Phoenix 14]
After a long while, Feng Wu's originally chaotic and restless aura gradually became peaceful, like a calm lake, slowly returning to normal. Her tightly closed eyes trembled slightly, and then slowly opened, with a trace of gratitude and joy in her eyes. She said softly to Youyou who was standing beside her: "Thank you, Young Palace Master, for your help. If you hadn't arrived in time and given me this magical elixir, I'm afraid I would still be in deep trouble and unable to extricate myself."
When Youyou heard Fengwu's sincere words of thanks, a smile as bright as a blooming spring flower appeared on her face, and she responded softly: "Don't be so polite. From now on, just call me Chaoge."
"Chao Ge." Feng Wu nodded obediently and called out the new name softly, as if she wanted to imprint it deeply in her heart.
At this time, Youyou frowned slightly and reminded thoughtfully: "By the way, the pill I gave you before contains extremely strong medicinal power, but in your current condition, you have not been able to absorb it completely. But don't worry, as you continue to practice in the future, the medicinal power that has not been absorbed will gradually merge into your body and help you reach a higher level. As for the practice method, I believe you should already have it. To be honest, the practice method I practice is not very suitable for you. Besides, even if I want to teach it to you, I really can't come up with any other suitable practice here."
Feng Wu heard this and waved her hands, answering firmly: "It's okay, Chaoge, don't worry. In fact, I already have my own unique set of skills, but I have been making slow progress. This time, I have been blessed with such a precious elixir, which is already a great gift from heaven. How dare I ask for more?"
Youyou smiled and nodded, showing her understanding and agreement. Suddenly, as if she remembered something important, her expression froze, her eyes fixed on Fengwu, and she asked, "By the way, did you steal the fairy fruit as well?"
Feng Wu's face flushed instantly, and she looked a little uneasy. She lowered her head and stammered, "Well... that's true. I'm really sorry, Chaoge. It's mainly because the fairy fruit is very important to me and can help me practice better. And the pill you gave me at that time, to be honest, I really don't know what its specific effects and functions are, so after weighing the pros and cons, I finally decided to take the risk and take the fairy fruit as well."
"So, did you use the fairy fruit?" Youyou asked, with a hint of concern in her eyes.
Feng Wu shook her head and said truthfully, "I haven't used it yet. I gave it to a friend who is proficient in alchemy and asked him to help refine it into a pill that can enhance spiritual power."
"Is that so? Are the pills you refine reliable? Don't be too impatient and end up making things worse." Youyou continued to ask with some concern.
"I believe in Old Man Ba's character." Feng Wu said with a firm gaze, as if she was completely sure of it.
"That's good, but with His Highness's intelligence, he must have guessed your true identity. As for whether you choose to tell him the truth or continue to hide it, it all depends on your decision." Youyou frowned slightly and reminded thoughtfully.
Hearing this, Feng Wu's heart tightened, but then she quickly regained her composure: "I know what to do. By the way, Chaoge, I'm really worried about my mother. I wonder how she is doing now?" Before she finished speaking, Feng Wu's face was already full of anxiety.
"Don't worry, I have already given your mother a bottle of high-quality medicine. As long as she persists in wiping them a few times a day, her injured hands will be restored to their original state in a few days." Youyou smiled and comforted Fengwu softly.
"Thank you so much, Chaoge! If you hadn't helped me, I really don't know what I would do. But now, I am eager to go home and want to rush back home to see my mother's condition with my own eyes." Feng Wu said earnestly.
"Of course no problem, you should go back soon. I'm also going to look for my senior sister, so let's say goodbye here." Youyou nodded to show her understanding.
"Goodbye, Chaoge. If we have the chance in the future, I will definitely visit you." Feng Wu clasped her hands together and bowed to Youyou.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come find me in the Biluo Palace." Youyou responded with a smile.
"Okay." Feng Wu said, and pushed open the door to go out. She happened to see Xuan Yi standing outside, nodded to Xuan Yi, and left.
The door that had been closed for a long time slowly opened, and a gap gradually appeared before his eyes. Xuan Yi looked up and saw that the door was open, so he walked in without hesitation. He gently raised his hand and closed the door, making a slight muffled sound.
After entering the house, Xuan Yi's eyes quickly swept around, and finally fixed on Youyou. He bowed slightly and said softly: "Chaoge, it's time to eat now. What do you think? I can ask the store to deliver the food here, or we can go downstairs and enjoy it together."
At this time, Youyou on the side responded: "Let's go downstairs and eat! This way, we can also look for senior sister on the way. I'm sure senior sister must have been waiting here for a long time, and she must be very anxious." As she said that, a smile appeared on her face.
However, Xuan Yi was secretly complaining in his heart at this time. To be honest, he really didn't want Youyou to go to find that Senior Sister Zuo Qingyuan. As long as Zuo Qingyuan was there, he would never get close to Youyou. Zuo Qingyuan's defense against him was as heavy as Mount Tai, as if he was a scourge. Whenever he saw this scene, Xuan Yi could only sigh helplessly, wishing he could just send the troublesome Zuo Qingyuan away.
Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, suddenly, a sound of light footsteps was heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw two graceful figures slowly walking in from the door. It turned out to be Zuo Qingyuan and Mu Yao.
Zuo Qingyuan's bright eyes immediately caught sight of Youyou's figure. A smile of surprise instantly broke out on her face. She couldn't help but quicken her pace and flew to the table where Youyou was like a happy butterfly.
Zuo Qingyuan gently pulled out a chair and sat down gracefully, next to Youyou, and said coquettishly: "Chaoge, when did you come? Why didn't you tell me in advance? I received a letter from you a few days ago, saying that you would be back in a few days, but I have been waiting for many days, looking forward to seeing you."
Youyou smiled slightly, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and replied softly: "Senior sister, I just arrived here not long ago. I went to the Feng family before and helped out a little. As soon as I finished the matter, I rushed to find you without stopping."
Hearing this, Zuo Qingyuan couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "What are you doing at the Feng family?"
Youyou pursed her lips and explained, "I went to help Fengwu out."
Zuo Qingyuan shook her head helplessly and sighed, "You are such a silly girl! Back then, you and Feng Wu were so close, and you are still like this now. I really don't know how to say this to you. Have you forgotten? Back then, you were poisoned because you wanted to save Feng Wu, and she might not appreciate it. But you are still so unconcerned with her now."
"Senior Sister, you see, my poison has been lifted long ago! So, I can't just watch Feng Wu being like this and remain indifferent." Youyou stuck out her tongue mischievously and said in a tender voice.
At this time, Zuo Qingyuan turned to look at Xuan Yi, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face, and asked: "Master Xuan Yi, why are you still staying by Chaoge's side until now? Thinking back to the beginning, you told me in person that you only came to ask about the difficulties my junior sister encountered in her cultivation. Logically speaking, these problems should have been solved. Then why are you still lingering and refusing to leave? If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid even His Highness Jun is here."
Facing Zuo Qingyuan's sharp questioning, Xuan Yi was calm and composed, and responded slowly: "I have already reported to His Majesty Jun. In the near future, I will stay by the side of the Young Palace Master. And the Young Palace Master himself has also agreed to this matter."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zuo Qingyuan immediately turned his gaze to Youyou and asked anxiously, "Chaoge, is what he said really true?"
Youyou secretly glanced at Xuan Yi, and saw that this guy looked calm and composed, without any trace of guilt. He was obviously sure that she would help him cover up. In desperation, Youyou had to bite the bullet and replied, "Senior Sister, it is true."
Zuo Qingyuan pondered in her heart, feeling that there was something fishy going on. She frowned slightly, stared at Xuan Yi in front of her with a sharp gaze, and asked, "Oh? Really? Master Xuan Yi, what are you thinking of following my junior sister all day long? Is it really as you said, just mutual learning and guidance? Humph! I don't believe it!"
Xuan Yi looked very serious. His deep and bright eyes looked directly at Zuo Qingyuan and he said slowly, "What if I said that my purpose was because of the Young Palace Master?"
Hearing this, Zuo Qingyuan was shocked, with a look of astonishment on his face, and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xuan Yi smiled slightly and replied calmly, "That's exactly what it means."
