Feng Yi couldn't help but click her tongue, a hint of emotion on her face, "This is one of the reasons why the First Sect remains hidden. We don't want too much contact with these insignificant sects."
More importantly, the First Sect was powerful enough and had all the resources it needed. It didn't have to curry favor with any sect.
Instead of associating with these sects, it was better to live their own lives and enjoy peace.
"Master!"
"Good news!"
A childish voice came rushing over.
Not far away, a small figure was happily running towards them.
Xiao Zhao's young face was full of smiles, as if something incredibly joyous had happened.
Seeing Xiao Zhao's excited demeanor, Feng Ninghe's mood involuntarily improved, and she looked at him with interest, "Xiao Zhao, what has happened to make you so happy?"
Xiao Zhao stopped, panting. His sapphire eyes were filled with smiles as he quickly said, "Master, Ah Xing is awake! His complexion is ruddy, and his condition is good. It looks like he's not seriously injured."
During the half-month that Feng Xing was unconscious, they had given him plenty of spiritual elixirs and medicinal pills.
Nourished by these elixirs and pills, it was difficult for his body not to be well.
Feng Ninghe also felt relieved at this moment, nodding gently, "He should be awake."
Feng Yi's lips curved into a smile, and she said without hesitation, "Ah Xing waking up is a good thing. Today, I will personally cook a table of delicacies to celebrate Ah Xing's recovery!"
Upon hearing about delicious food, Xiao Zhao nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes! The almond shortbread you made last time was so delicious, I haven't had enough yet. How wonderful it would be to have it again!"
Feng Yi generously patted her chest, "Since you want to eat it, I will make it."
"Master, since Ah Xing has woken up, when will we return to Medicine Valley?" Xiao Zhao turned his gaze to her and asked softly.
He had followed his master all this way and knew that his master still had many things to do.
The current peaceful days were only temporary.
Facing the question, Feng Ninghe's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of imperceptible depth appeared in her eyes, "We'll leave in two days after tidying up a bit. I've been enjoying the peaceful days for too long, and I've actually become a little attached to them."
She even felt greedy, wanting to possess such peaceful and tranquil days forever.
"Junior Sister, isn't it good to live a peaceful life?"
Feng Yi looked at her with some confusion, slightly puzzled.
Feng Ninghe smiled and said, "Of course it's good, but my life is destined not to be peaceful."
She couldn't wait to return to Lin Country.
She hadn't returned for a hundred years and didn't know what Lin Country had become.
Her appearance would surely stir up a storm in Lin Country.
She should also take back what belonged to her.
*
That night.
The moon hung high in the night sky.
The members of the First Sect gathered.
Feng Yi had prepared a table of delicious delicacies.
Si Xin Xin blinked her bright eyes, her gaze fixed on the dishes on the table, licking her lips with anticipation, "I've eaten many good things, but these dishes before me all make me eager to taste them."
Xiao Zhao's sapphire eyes couldn't move away from the dishes, and he quickly said, "Sister Feng Yi's cooking is truly excellent. I'd say her cooking is the best in Jinling!"
Hearing the praise, Feng Yi's face lit up with a bright smile, "Alright, now that everyone is here, let's sit down and eat."
Xiao Zhao grabbed a piece of almond shortbread and put it in his mouth, nodding in praise.
"It's rare to see Junior Sister cook such a delicious meal. Everyone should eat more."
With that, Gu Sanwei eagerly picked up a piece of meat and chewed it carefully.
Feng Yi specifically looked at Feng Xing, "Ah Xing, this table of dishes is all prepared for you. You are Junior Sister's friend, so you are our friend. You've finally woken up, so you must eat more."
Everyone had witnessed Feng Xing's performance that day.
The young man had explosive power and was admirable for his fearlessness in the face of death.
A hint of a wry smile flickered across Feng Xing's handsome face, "I've troubled you all during these past few days."
When he was unconscious, the people of the First Sect had helped him a lot, trying to find ways to help him wake up as soon as possible.
He was also sincerely grateful to the First Sect.
When his master was in danger, the First Sect had unhesitatingly stood by her side.
If his master truly couldn't handle the approaching attackers, the First Sect would definitely protect her safety.
Feng Yi quickly waved her hand, rejecting his words, "Ah Xing, we are all friends, so let's not be so polite."
Everyone gathered together.
Si Xin Xin ate with great enjoyment, and even Grandpa Luo nodded in praise, "Each dish on the table is more delicious than the last. Young lady, you are truly amazing to have such culinary skills."
Si Jian Ye calmly picked up dishes and ate.
As the King of the Underworld, even his food was extremely particular.
In Xiyou Continent, he never ate with so many people, and the bowls and chopsticks he used were all made of fine jade.
But now he was holding wooden chopsticks and porcelain bowls.
A Xi occasionally looked up at Si Jian Ye from the corner of his eye, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
The King of the Underworld was still as cold and inscrutable as ever, but the current King of the Underworld seemed to have changed a lot.
After a moment, A Xi withdrew his gaze and ate his food.
Su Hong Xiu picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Feng Ninghe's bowl, his clear voice like a sweet spring falling, "Miss Feng, this piece of meat is exceptionally delicious and tastes very good. Please try it."
Feng Ninghe was a little surprised that Su Hong Xiu would serve her.
Soon, she recovered and said softly, "Thank you, I won't be polite."
For some reason, she felt the air suddenly turn a bit colder, and the atmosphere became quite awkward.
It felt as if a pair of eyes were staring directly at her.
Before Feng Ninghe could pick up the meat, a pair of chopsticks reached her bowl faster and took the meat away.
The owner of these chopsticks was Si Jian Ye.
Si Jian Ye's expression was cold, his thin lips devoid of any emotion, and his long fingers were bringing the meat to his mouth.
The man chewed the meat as if nothing had happened, his composed demeanor as if nothing had occurred.
This action successfully made Su Hong Xiu raise an eyebrow. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up another piece of meat and placed it in Feng Ninghe's bowl.
A pair of chopsticks immediately took the meat away.
However, this piece of meat fell to the ground.
Si Jian Ye lowered his gaze and glanced at the meat on the ground, his voice carrying a hint of regret as he spoke, "It's a pity that such a good piece of meat fell on the ground."
The man's expression was cold, and his angular face showed no excessive emotion, as if he had known all along that the meat would fall to the ground.
Although he said it was a pity, his face showed no sign of regret.
