Shangguan Wanrong shook her head. “He’s a Celestial Strong Exponent. You are not his opponent. Besides, you can’t use medicine on him. He himself is an alchemist and more familiar with medicine than you and I. Listen to Mother, find the time to leave this place after I depart. I will go back to find you, as long as I’m still alive.”
Feng Jiu looked at her and wanted to say something, but thought that she would definitely stop her. So, without saying anything, Feng Jiu only smiled and answered, “Alright, I know.”
Shangguan Wanrong knew from her brisk reply that Feng Jiu didn’t take her words to heart nor did she take her reminder seriously. Therefore, she patted her daughter’s hand and urged her again. “Keep in mind what Mother said. It’s better safe than sorry. Don’t be careless in everything.”
“Yes, yes, I know. I’ll remember.”
She answered her with a smile, then talked with her for a while and explained some things. This night, the mother and daughter were sleeping in the same bed, as if they had endless things to talk about. Feng Jiu didn’t have a deep sleep until the day turned gradually brighter…
Early in the morning.
After finishing packing, Shangguan Wanrong came to the bedside and sat down. Looking at her sleeping daughter, her face revealed a gentle and loving smile. She reached out and stroked her daughter’s face and said in a gentle voice, “You must remember Mother’s words and go home obediently.”
When Feng Jiu opened her eyes, she saw her mother. A languid smile appeared on her face. “Mother, didn’t you say that you would leave at noon last night? Why did you get up so early…”
After saying this, she saw her mother suddenly touch her acupoint, making her whole body unable to move.
She was wide-eyed and looked at her mother in amazement. “Mother, what do you intend to do? Unlock my acupoints quickly.”
“Sleep here obediently. Mother is leaving first. Don’t follow me. If not, it will be too dangerous for you.” Shangguan Wanrong whispered and pulled the quilt to cover her body.
When Feng Jiu heard this, she spoke hurriedly, “Mother, unlock my acupoints. I promise not to follow you.”
Shangguan Wanrong could not help but chuckle. She pinched Feng Jiu’s nose. “Don’t think Mother doesn’t know what kind of idea you have in mind. I don’t believe your promise. Be obedient and listen to me.”
With a composed look, she said, “Mother is more concerned with your safety than her own. Mother is at ease only when you’re safe and sound.”
She knew that this kid would surely follow her, but she could not take her along this time. Otherwise, she would be harmed. As long as she left first, even if Master Third Sun wanted to attack her, her daughter would not get involved.
“Mother, Father is still waiting for you to go back! I have promised Father to take you home and reunite with the whole family. You know that this trip is dangerous, so you should not leave alone. Let me stay by your side. At least I can still be of help in times of danger…”
Shangguan Wanrong chuckled. “What kind of help can you do, kid? It’s okay as long as you don’t cause trouble. Alright. I don’t want to say anything more. I leave you some things inside this bag, so keep it. If, I mean if, I really have an unexpected accident, let your father marry another person! Don’t always be so stubborn and you must take good care of yourself. ”
Feng Jiu’s nose tingled when she heard her mother’s words. She watched her mother put the cosmos sack into her arms and bent down to hold her tightly…
