Xie Feng’s mind was full of confusion. Should he really help the little princess of the Yao Family or should he not ddle? After all, regardless of whether the Yaos were to bla for Xie Yao’s loss or not, Xie Feng did not have a good impression of them after seeing Yao Zenyu’s attitude; he was like a smiling snake waiting for the mont to bite and poison its prey.
Surprisingly, without him expecting it, a person seed to hear Xie Feng’s muttering:
"What do you an by that? I hope you’re not planning anything crazy hehe..."
Xie Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. Even without looking towards the source of the voice, it was impossible for him not to recognize the person.
"I say, Mu Wuying.... Are you spying on ? This is the second ti the sa thing has happened in less than a month." Xie Feng did not look back and calmly replied.
"Co to think of it... Sothing similar happened when we went out to dinner in Shanghai." Mu Wuying walked up to him and stepped to his side, looking at the water fountain. She was silent for a mont and continued, "Unfortunately, I don’t think I can spy on you without you noticing. Perhaps, it is the work of the destiny..."
Xie Feng looked to his right out by the corner of his eye and there he saw her. Mu Wuying was wearing a long pink one-piece dress that covered most of her legs and hugged most of her body, almost completely showing off the curves of a fully mature woman along with a small snow-white blazer. At the age of 25, Mu Wuying had a body that was not at all inferior to Yin Yue and slightly above Xie Yao and the rest.
Of course, Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, and Shen Xinya were still in the growing stage, so they would probably not lose to Mu Wuying when they were her age.
Mu Wuying’s hair, soft and silky, was free of any ties and danced gently in the breeze of the wind. She gently closed her eyes and smiled while she whispered, "You know, I love this feeling.... Every ti the wind blows next to , it feels like you’re right next to ."
Xie Feng turned his gaze forward and sighed secretly. After several seconds in which they were both silent, he spoke, hesitantly, "Mu Wuying, why you.... It’s nothing, forget it." In the end, he shook his head and did not continue.
Mu Wuying did not say anything either. Although Xie Feng did not finish his question, she could get so ideas about what he wanted to know. However, she could not explain it easily. After all, until now, Mu Wuying was only guided by her heart but had no proof about anything. She preferred to make sure before making irresponsible comnts.
"By the way, what did you an before that you should do now?" Mu Wuying asked curiously as she hugged her own body in the face of the low temperature.
Xie Feng did not respond and instead asked in surprise: "An Esper like you feels cold?"
"Although I am an Esper, I am not a demon like you." Mu Wuying rolled his eyes seductively and explained, "Besides, most of my power is mainly magical, but unlike the Yao Family that controls fire, the Yang Family that controls earth, the Nangong that controls lightning, and the Gu Family that controls wind and water, the mbers of my Mu Family are different."
"That’s what I heard." Xie Feng nodded and, without saying anything, took off his own coat and silently placed it on the shoulders of the beauty beside him.
Mu Wuying looked a little surprised, but soon recovered and smiled slightly as she clung to the dark black coat. Even after years, Xie Feng was still the sa kind of person.... That was sothing she really loved about him. Small gestures, not asking, not expecting a thank you in return and doing it of his own accord.... Small details that many won or n might overlook and ignore, Mu Wuying noticed and rembered each one of them.
"Mu Wuying, do you think I should save little Princess Yao’s life?"
Xie Feng asked out of nowhere. His question caught Mu Wuying off guard; her red lips opened slightly and her pretty blue eyes blinked several tis as she stared into nothingness, stunned.
After recovering, she quickly looked at Xie Feng and asked, "W-What do you an?"
Xie Feng frowned slightly at Mu Wuying’s strange and clearly sowhat agitated attitude, but still, he explained what was going on with Yao i currently. Although he did not know exactly what was happening to Yao i, he did have a fairly clear idea. But to get the full picture, Xie Feng had no choice but to inspect her closely.
Hearing Xie Feng’s explanation and learning that Yao i would not make it past tonight if he did not help her, Mu Wuying’s face changed drastically.
"What’s wrong?" Xie Feng finally noticed that sothing was wrong. Could it be that she and Yao i had recently beco close friends? Xie Feng couldn’t think of any other reason why Mu Wuying would care so much about a girl she had hardly interacted with in the past.
Mu Wuying looked at Xie Feng face to face, hesitantly. Her gaze was elusive and she seed to want to say sothing but at the last mont, she regretted it..... After almost a full minute, she finally looked at him imploringly and talked in a low voice: "You.... Can you please help her? I... I can’t tell you the reason now because I don’t want to hurt you.... But believe , everything I do is for your own good."
Xie Feng looked at her silently, without replying.
Mu Wuying also kept her eyes on his, but for every second that passed, the anxiety in her slowly grew more and more.
In the end, Xie Feng shrugged his shoulders and casually replied, "Well, forget it. Anyway what happens to that girl surnad Yao might be partly my fault..... I’ll save her little life. Although in the future I’ll probably have to kill her if she crosses my path."
A chill shone in Xie Feng’s eyes, a terrifying one that, perhaps fortunately, Mu Wuying did not notice.
A smile finally blood on Mu Wuying’s anxious face, illuminating the place like a beacon of light guiding ships lost in a storm on the ocean. She took one of Xie Feng’s hands between her own and nodded, "Don’t worry! I promise she won’t be your enemy ever!"
"You..." Xie Feng shook his head and sighed, exasperated.
Won really were a rarity....

Xie Feng and Mu Wuying sneaked through the mansion, easily breaking through the security patrols.
"Still, it really is amazing." Mu Wuying whispered as she stood upright next to an ard guard and waved her hand. Although she was a ter away, the person in question did not seem to notice her in the slightest.
Xie Feng continued to slowly move forward and explained, "Well, it’s actually quite easy. Wind can help refract light and reflect images if used at the right intensity and angle. Even security cara lenses or heat sensors wouldn’t be able to catch ."
Indeed, it was this trick that Xie Feng used before boarding the plane at the airport without being noticed by any of the security caras there. The reason he had done so was so that the people in charge of kidnapping Gu Qianxue, whoever they were, would not know of his existence on the spot since if they were well inford, they would probably retreat in silence. Although this would have saved him so trouble, it would also let loose a ferocious tiger that could co back to bite at any ti; sothing Xie Feng preferred to avoid if possible.
Soon, without too much inconvenience, Xie Feng accompanied by Mu Wuying arrived at the entrance of Yao i’s room.
"Heh..." Xie Feng sneered as he looked at the door in front of him.
"What’s wrong?" Mu Wuying questioned.
"Back up a bit. I don’t think anything bad will happen though, just in case." Xie Feng did not reply and softly ordered.
Mu Wuying, not knowing what was going on, did as he asked and stepped back silently.
After making sure she was a few ters away, Xie Feng extended his right hand and with a sneer tightened it into a fist.
His eyes as black as night turned as golden as the purest gold and a blast of wind that seed to be soft and weak surrounded the door.
Crack
Crack
Crack
A fla that was invisible to the human eye suddenly began to burn and crackle; fighting furiously against the wind that surrounded it, trying to consu it.
"You want to stop with just this? You’re still green..." Xie Feng shook his head indifferently and waved his hand casually.
Thud!
With a thud, the fla exploded furiously and had it not been for Xie Feng holding it back, the entire hallway and part of the mansion would have been destroyed. That’s how strong was the fla that was hidden and surrounded the door of Yao i’s room!
"This..." Mu Wuying didn’t know what to say. Wasn’t that Yao Xiyu’s fla? According to what she had heard, Yao Xiyu had co to possess such a high control over the fire that he could camouflage his flas with the environnt!
Yao Xiyu probably erected a protective barrier in case soone tried to enter the room of a weakened Yao i; after all, this was the best ti to assassinate her and deal a fatal blow to the Yao Family, taking away one of its most powerful users. Although Yao i might die tonight, her father naturally had not given up yet.
But Xie Feng removed the defensive barrier erected by one of the most powerful beings in all of China so easily? Mu Wuying felt her world spinning, barely able to comprehend what was happening.
"Well, probably so servant passing by raised this weak defensive barrier." Xie Feng clapped his hands together softly, as if he was wiping the dust off his hands, and casually comnted: "But, at least soone capable should do it, don’t you think?"
What!? Mu Wuying almost shouted out loud.
Having no answer, Xie Feng looked behind him and there he saw Mu Wuying, looking at him with wide eyes as if it was the first ti she saw him in her life.
"What’s happening?" Xie Feng frowned, confused. He had no idea what was happening now."You’re acting strange."
Mu Wuying took a deep breath and looked at Xie Feng with a serious expression: "You... did not know who raised that barrier?"
