"Xihuan, how are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable?" Jiang Fufeng, the pinnacle of the Sixth Realm, now seed like an anxious child, checking his wife’s body up and down, worried she might have so lingering effects.
"Ah Feng, stop it, there are so many people watching." Yuan Xihuan felt a bit embarrassed. She had just woken up and still hadn’t quite figured out what was going on, and here she was being treated like this, with a large crowd at the door curiously watching her.
"It’s okay, it’s okay, you’re the most important thing!" Jiang Fufeng didn’t pay any attention to the onlookers at the door, his focus entirely on his wife.
"?"
The onlookers were full of question marks, thinking, if we weren’t here, were you planning to give her a thorough check-up?
"Cough cough!" Yuan Shushan couldn’t stand it anymore and gave a well-intentioned reminder.
"Big brother! You’re here too?" It was only then that Yuan Xihuan noticed her elder brother in the crowd, exclaiming in surprise.
"I ca a few days ago, thinking of seeing you."
"Auntie!" "Auntie!"
Two children’s voices rang out, Yuan Hua and Yuan Jiaming had already pushed past Jiang Fufeng and happily snuggled into their aunt’s embrace. In their hearts, their aunt visiting them in Central State every year and bringing them delicious food and fun toys was really great news that she was alright.
Jiang Fufeng, pushed aside, was so annoyed his nose was almost crooked, but he didn’t have the heart to compete with the kids and could only sit in the corner of the bed sulking.
"It looks like sister-in-law should be fine." Liang Yi, accompanied by Su Youyi, stood beside Jiang Fufeng and chuckled.
"Mm, the Heavenly Vault vine juice originally has no toxicity, only causing deep unconsciousness until the Divine Soul perishes. Now it seems it’s rely that her Divine Soul is a bit unstable." Listening to the laughter and chatting on the other side, the gloom in Jiang Fufeng’s heart for the past few days was swept away.
"Divine Soul instability?" Liang Yi mused, what a coincidence, looking towards Su Youyi.
Su Youyi nodded to signal that Willow Wood Stone could treat this issue.
After telling Jiang Fufeng about this, he was sowhat surprised, as neither Willow Wood Stone nor the heart of Heavenly Vault vines were common items. He didn’t expect this young man to have such rich reserves, truly befitting soone from a Super Force.
Jiang Fufeng picked up Yuan Hua and his sister, moving them aside. He asked Su Youyi to go and treat the issue, and anwhile instructed the guards to change the dicine ant for treating the Divine Soul to ones that were nourishing for the body.
Su Youyi bent down to whisper to Yuan Xihuan, and soon her face was filled with a smile.
She took off the necklace from her neck, raised her hand above Yuan Xihuan’s head, and soft erald light poured from the gemstone, absorbed into Yuan Xihuan’s forehead.
Yuan Xihuan felt the headache from waking up dissipating under the light’s glow, as if a top-notch masseur was massaging her head.
The treatnt didn’t take long, and by the ti Su Youyi put the necklace back on, only a few breaths had passed.
At this mont, Yuan Xihuan had quietly fallen asleep, her beautiful face once again calm, but unlike the previous lifeless stillness during unconsciousness, sleep was the best way to stabilize the Divine Soul, with Willow Wood Stone rely providing external support.
Everyone refrained from disturbing her any further, and under Jiang Fufeng’s lead, quietly left the room and gathered in the courtyard.
Yuan Shushan summoned a maid and, amid Yuan Hua’s cheers, asked her to take them around the mansion to play freely. After that, the four of them headed back into the hall.
"This ti we truly owe a debt of gratitude to both Master Liang and his companion. If not for them, who knows in which year we would have found the Heavenly Vault Efedra Heart. In the future, please visit Xunyang City more often. I still have so influence here," Jiang Fufeng regained his scholarly general deanor, yet his expression could barely conceal his excitent.
"It’s all thanks to Elder Brother’s efforts," Su Youyi replied ekly, knowing full well that she hadn’t been of any help.
"Hahaha, Fairy Su jests. Whatever requests you have, feel free to ntion them!" Yuan Shushan glanced at Liang Yi and then at Su Youyi, teasing them.
"Actually, there is sothing that I need to trouble Brother Jiang with," Liang Yi spoke in a gentle voice.
"Oh? What might that be?" Jiang Fufeng asked curiously.
"Sister Apprentice and I wish to make use of the Immortal Dynasty’s Transmission Array to go directly to the Eastern Capital, and from there return to Youdao Mountain. I wonder if that would be possible?" Liang Yi revealed his request.
"Hahahaha, to think I assud it to be so significant matter! Such a trivial act of assistance is nothing to speak of; in fact, the Immortal Dynasty has agreents with so Super Forces that cover the use of the Transmission Array. Has your master not inford you of this?" Jiang Fufeng asked, puzzled.
"This trip was rather unexpected, and we didn’t have ti to inform our master, so he didn’t ntion this to us," Liang Yi rubbed his forehead. In his previous life, players had to pay a heavy price to use the Immortal Dynasty’s Transmission Array, so he assud it would be difficult to borrow. That’s why he chose to take on this task, but he hadn’t expected it to be so straightforward, truly underestimating the status of the Super Forces.
"Is there so urgent matter that requires the use of the Transmission Array?" Generally speaking, unless it’s an ergency or the journey is exceedingly long, there is no need to use the Transmission Array, given the significant cost of activating it just once.
"It’s that Devouring Spirit Sect again, always causing trouble for Elder Brother," Su Youyi complained softly while holding her sweet tea.
"Devouring Spirit Sect?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Fufeng and Yuan Shushan exchanged a look, not expecting there to be a conflict between the Taoist Sect and that mysterious force.
Liang Yi briefly recounted to Jiang Fufeng what he had previously told Yuan Shushan.
"City Lord Jiang must have also received a ssage from Little Bamboo House by now," Liang Yi surmised.
In truth, Jiang Fufeng was unaware of this issue, having been wholeheartedly dedicated to searching for the Heavenly Vault Efedra Heart; he had ignored all but related communications. Only now, when Liang Yi brought it up, did he have his steward inquire if there had been any communications from Little Bamboo House in the past few days, and finally understood the situation.
"This Devouring Spirit Sect is not simple, huh!" Jiang Fufeng had an intuition that getting to the bottom of the Devouring Spirit Sect might not be so easy.
"If Brother Jiang finds out any news, could trouble you to send it to Youdao Mountain? I am sowhat concerned about this matter," Liang Yi was effortfully networking, preferring to complete tasks without having to lift a finger.
"No problem! I will send it to you as soon as I have any information," Jiang Fufeng readily agreed.
"Oh, and there is another matter." Liang Yi inford Jiang Fufeng and Yuan Shushan about his encounter with Yuan Hua and his sister.
"Hmph, this Zhang Family, taking advantage of my distraction and inability to manage the city affairs, is behaving so brazenly!"
"What insolence! They even dare to target my Yuan Family; once this matter is settled, I shall pay the Zhang Family a proper visit!"
Yuan Shushan had already heard of this from his son, but it was news to Jiang Fufeng. He had never been particularly invested in the city’s power struggles, allowing the Zhang Family their machinations as long as the city ran smoothly. In recent days, especially, he had indeed had no ti to manage city affairs, leaving them in the hands of his subordinates. He hadn’t expected such an incident to occur.
The thought of the Zhang Family angering and driving Liang Yi away made Jiang Fufeng fearful for his wife’s condition, wondering how much longer they would have to wait. With this in mind, Jiang Fufeng’s eyes flashed coldly, determined to teach the Zhang Family a lesson and remind them who truly rules the city.
Liang Yi remained silent with a smile: I, Liang Yi, have no enemies, for all my enemies must die!
But when he thought of the pestering Devouring Spirit Sect, Liang Yi felt his teeth itch with hatred!
