“Of course not, but we thought we’d have to have an infallible plan so as to avoid having neither side win, losing eight hundred allies and injuring a thousand enemies.”
Feng Jiu nodded at Sage Hun Yuan’s words. “Don’t worry! I know what to do.”
“By the way, I think your son’s background is unusual. If you adopt him, you may get into trouble in the future.” Mo Chen remarked with his gentle and profound gaze that fell on the child surrounded by several contract beasts.
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed. Taking a glance at the child, she saw the child giggled after being teased by Old White and the other beasts and she also smiled. “It doesn’t matter. Since he is my son, I will naturally protect him. When trouble comes, I will solve it.”
“By the way, I heard that Yi Xiuran is here? Why didn’t I see him tonight?” It reminded Feng Jiu about this matter. She only had one chance encounter with the cultivator named Yi Xiuran, but, unexpectedly, he would come to her. Then, she heard from Du Fan that he had been waiting for her here for a long time.
Upon hearing this, Leng Shuang said, “Master, he’s been at the Manor the whole time. When you were away, he abode by the rules and never did anything out of line inside the Manor. It’s just that he went out the day before to take care of some matters and hasn’t come back yet.”
Feng Jiu nodded. “Let him come see me when he comes back.”
“Yes.” Leng Shuang answered and stepped back.
That night, several of them didn’t talk very late. Mo Chen knew that they had just come back, so he told them to rest early and left first.
Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Demon Clan, the Demon Lord reclined on the main seat with a mask on and his real appearance covered up, playing with two shining beads in his hands. His gloomy and bloodthirsty eyes were blood-red. At this moment, he stared with his eyes squinted at the devilry cultivator kneeling below.
“Oh? So, those so-called Four Great Immortal Sects, as well as various factions, really couldn’t do anything to Heavenly Pill Tower’s Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu? They didn’t dare to attack her?”
His voice was gloomy and menacing. Nobody could see his face, so they had no idea what he was thinking.
“Yes, Demon Lord, those people are all afraid of Feng Jiu and respect Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu. Reportedly, Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu is the Phoenix Star that Old Man Tianji spoke about before, that is, the Sovereign of the World.” The devilry cultivator below didn’t dare to look up. He answered reverently while bowing down on the ground.
“Phoenix Star? Haha, that’s interesting.”
The two egg-sized beads in the Demon Lord’s hand rotated gently. His chilling voice rang out. “Just that little girl who is still wet behind her ears? They said she’s the Phoenix Star? She is only slightly outstanding in alchemy. Only by means of medicinal pills to advance her strength did she manage to become the overlord in this region.”
“Phoenix Star? Heh, being an insignificant woman, she dares to fight against my Demon Clan?”
Upon hearing this, the devilry cultivator below replied in a hurry. “She surely doesn’t dare, otherwise, since her elder brother in our hands, why didn’t she come to rescue? It’s clear that she is afraid and in awe of you and does not dare to make a sudden attack.”
The Demon Lord listened to this reply with the corners of his mouth drawn and said nothing. Even though the Demon Lord had calmed down and didn’t speak anymore, the devilry cultivator below had no inkling about what he had in mind.. So, the devilry cultivator didn’t dare to withdraw and just kept bowing down quietly until he heard the Demon Lord’s voice again.
