Feng Tongtong sent someone to visit Sixth Master.
Sixth Master never met her, and directly stated, "Cannot cure it."
It was obvious that this Sixth Master had no intention of treating her.
"Second Sister, if you were to propose it to Sixth Master, I believe he would never refuse!"
Feng Tongtong clutched Feng Qingcheng's sleeve as if she had found a life-saving straw, her eyes filled with anticipation. "Jinling is far from the Li Kingdom. Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. If the Liu Mian Pavilion is willing to stay, I am sure my face can be cured."
Feng Qingcheng calmly withdrew her sleeve and glanced at her with a hint of arrogance. "Third Sister, do not worry. Once I meet this Sixth Master, I will speak to him if I have the chance."
She had never met Sixth Master before.
She had heard that Sixth Master was handsome and could be compared to the Underworld King of Xiyou Continent.
She was somewhat curious about Sixth Master's true appearance.
Feng Tongtong nodded repeatedly, placing all her hopes on Feng Qingcheng. "Second Sister, I can only rely on you now."
With Second Sister's intervention, coupled with her impending marriage to the First Prince, it should not be difficult to get Sixth Master to help.
"Father, Mother, has Feng Ninghe returned?" Feng Qingcheng subconsciously asked.
If Feng Ninghe saw her in such glory, she would probably be hiding in a corner, filled with envy and hatred.
Mentioning Feng Ninghe, Zhang Shi rolled her eyes with disgust and grumbled, "Who knows if that slut has returned. While you were away, she turned the Feng Manor upside down. Mother has a belly full of grievances to tell you."
Zhang Shi had sent a嬷嬷 to track Feng Ninghe, and since then, the嬷嬷 had disappeared without a trace, presumably having met her end.
Feng Ninghe's cultivation was far superior to the嬷嬷's, so she must have dealt with her.
Fortunately, this嬷嬷 was just a servant; her death had no impact on her.
"Indeed, this woman is cunning and deep. She can cultivate but hides it so well. Her existence is a threat to us!" Feng Guangyao agreed.
They wished they could get rid of Feng Ninghe quickly.
This damned woman had returned and taken what rightfully belonged to them, and had also ruined their reputation.
Especially Feng Tongtong.
Now, everyone in the Li Kingdom was waiting to see the Feng family's downfall and constantly gossiping in private.
With Feng Qingcheng's return, they could finally hold their heads high.
Seeing their hateful and disgusted expressions, Feng Qingcheng smiled and said, "Father, Mother, I have matters to attend to outside the manor later. Leave Feng Ninghe to me. I am enough for the Feng family."
She was a Nascent Soul cultivator, while Feng Ninghe was a cultivation waste.
Feng Tongtong could be manipulated by such a waste, it was embarrassing to even speak of it.
Zhang Shi seemed to recall something and specifically added, "Oh, right. The Liu Mian Pavilion sent such a generous gift. We must send someone to thank them properly!"
"Second Miss, the elders have prepared a family banquet to welcome you. They invite you and the two disciples from the Immortal Sect to dine with them."
At this moment, a young servant hurried in to report.
The elders also wanted to take the opportunity to foster a good relationship with Feng Qingcheng.
Feng Guangyao beamed with joy. "When Feng Ninghe returned, the elders were not this enthusiastic. Qingcheng, you truly bring honor to your father."
Feng Qingcheng did not rush to speak. Instead, she looked up at the sky.
It was still early. Even if she went to dine first, it would not delay her time...
Shi Wan.
Feng Ninghe was refining medicine within a barrier.
The medicine to heal Si Xin Xin was complex to refine, and she needed to refine more of it at once.
Xiao Zhao lay lazily by the door, basking in the sun and keeping watch.
In an elegant residence.
Si Xin Xin, dressed neatly, was waiting in the room.
Si Jianye turned to Si Xin Xin beside him and asked in a deep voice, "Xin Xin, do you really intend to go out with that woman?"
In the past, Feng Qingcheng had also wanted to take Si Xin Xin out to play, but she had been repeatedly refused.
Si Xin Xin blinked her bright eyes and nodded obediently, a hint of cunning flashing in her eyes. "Father, since Feng Qingcheng is so enthusiastic, how can I refuse her kind intentions?"
A Xi stepped forward proactively. "Miss, I will accompany you. That way, the Underworld King will be at ease."
Si Xin Xin's eyes rolled around in her sockets, clearly deep in thought. "Uncle Xi accompanying me is also good."
At this moment, she exuded a clever aura, which made Si Jianye's lips curl upwards involuntarily.
He had watched Xin Xin grow up and, seeing her eyes dart around, he instantly understood what Xin Xin was planning.
Even without A Xi accompanying her, he was not worried.
Feng Qingcheng did not have the audacity to harm Si Xin Xin. Few people in this world could make her suffer.
Si Xin Xin impatiently pulled A Xi. "Uncle Xi, Feng Qingcheng will be here soon. Let's go to the door to wait for her. If we don't see her, we'll go to the Feng Manor."
These words left A Xi somewhat confused, and he reached out to scratch his head. "It seems Miss really wants to go out with Feng Qingcheng. Even if she doesn't come, you plan to go to her."
Si Xin Xin flashed a cunning smile, her eyes curving into crescents, and said excitedly, "Of course! I can't wait to go out with her!"
Looking at the little one beside him, full of excitement, A Xi couldn't help but shiver, feeling an inexplicable fear.
He had a premonition.
Miss was definitely up to no good!
Creak—
The manor gate opened, and Si Xin Xin saw Feng Qingcheng getting out of the carriage at a glance.
"Xin Xin."
Feng Qingcheng raised a bright smile. The smile on her clean, fair cheeks appeared much more amiable.
She quickly came to Si Xin Xin's side, but her gaze kept sweeping backward, as if waiting for something.
Seeing Feng Qingcheng, Si Xin Xin felt a sense of disgust for no reason. She did not show it outwardly and walked ahead generously, saying, "I'm all ready. Shall we go out and play now!"
Feng Qingcheng froze on the spot and quickly asked, "Where is the Underworld King? Isn't the Underworld King going with us?"
She had dressed up specifically for today, even carefully selecting her clothes. The low neckline perfectly showcased her figure.
If she didn't get to see Si Jianye, wouldn't her efforts be in vain?
Si Xin Xin pouted and looked at her with innocent eyes. "Father is busy and not at home."
A Xi's eyebrows twitched secretly. He watched everything before him and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
The Underworld King was clearly in the house, idle and seemingly with nothing to do.
Of course, even if he knew the truth, he wouldn't reveal it.
Upon hearing that Si Jianye was not there, Feng Qingcheng couldn't hide her disappointment and sighed slightly. "So the Underworld King is not here. Xin Xin, I suddenly remembered I have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave."
Her target was Si Jianye.
Since Si Jianye was not present, she naturally had no reason to stay any longer.
