Chapter 1118: I Only Like Mobai
In order to not attract attention to herself and also for convenience sake, Feng Tianlan suppressed her Heavenly Supreme Spiritual Force to a Middle-stage Earth Supreme level so that she would only be considered an above-average Spiritual Practitioner amongst the batch of examinees. Like this, those from the higher levels would want to buy her over, while those from lower levels would not dare to offend her—and there would be less trouble for her in general.
“Master Shen.”
After following the troops out of the city, and walking non-stop till evening, Feng Tianlan heard a familiar voice just as they stopped to rest. When she looked up, she saw a man walking towards her. “Shi Yiqing.”
At this point, she remembered that when she was in the Xi Yuan Nation, the Shi Family Grand Elder had said that he wanted Shi Yiqing to go to the Shang Institution. It seemed to be such a long time since then that she had forgotten about it.
Shi Yiqing nodded and gently acknowledged her greeting as he sat next to Feng Tianlan, “Where has Master Shen gone to these days? I could not find you at the United Mercenary Regiment and that worried me.”
Because of him, Chen Xinyi could not eat well and had lost a lot of weight. As her cousin, he felt terrible when he looked at her now.
“I have been rather busy. I recruited some new people a few days ago, and took them to be assessed and trained,” Feng Tianlan said without a flush on her face.
Shi Yiqing was not suspicious and said, “I thought that Master Shen was heartbroken and left Lin’an City. I thought we would never see each other again.”
Feng Tianlan chuckled lightly. Could it be that Shi Yiqing still did not know her true identity, so he thought that she was involved with Mobai as a man but had been hurt so she wanted to leave this place of sadness?
It seemed like Shi Yiqing had watched a fair amount of dramas, thinking so much like this.
“Master Shen, although it is not good to mention your painful memory—”
“Then don’t mention it.” Feng Tianlan interrupted him with a light smile. Fortunately, Mobai had gone back after sending her out of the city, otherwise, he would be incredibly angry if he heard what Shi Yiqing was saying and would beat Shi Yiqing up.
“…” Shi Yiqing choked at Feng Tianlan’s words and could not say anything in return. She could have waited until he finished speaking before rebutting. What should he say now?
Feng Tianlan glanced at everyone around them who had already finished eating and stood up as she said, “Alright, it seems like we should continue with our journey. If you have anything else to say, we can talk about it again when we have the time.”
“Master Shen, it is not that I look down on you. I only mean to say that since the Demon King has a fiancée already and he has not looked for you since you disappeared, how about diverting your attention to someone else? How about finding a gentle and sweet woman to marry? Then, you will discover that women are definitely better than men,” Shi Yiqing followed Feng Tianlan and whispered that last sentence.
He had thought that he would never see Master Shen again. And he thought that after a long time, Xinyi would give up on him. However, after a few months passed, not only did she not give up, she continued looking extremely sad and worried as if she might seek death at any moment, making him very troubled.
“He is better than anyone else.” Feng Tianlan thought of Si Mobai and could not help the curl of the corners of her lips. After thinking about him, she once again affirmed in her heart that Mobai was better than anyone else.
Shi Yiqing frowned. “Master Shen, can you come and take a look at my cousin, Xinyi? Compared to the Demon King, she is more dedicated and will never hurt you. I think you two are a match made in heaven…”
Feng Tianlan raised her eyes coldly and lowered her voice. “Master Shi, I like Mobai very much and this will never change. If you want what is best for her, then don’t let her come close to me. Remember this, I will never like her!”
She only like Mobai!
“Also, don’t you badmouth him again or I will beat you up too!”
