Chapter 1176: Ghost Saint Country 137
p aside."The empress responded, and the empress announced that Du Gucheng was to enter the palace.Along with Du Gucheng came Minister of Rites Shui, also known as Shui Side Concubine's father and the..."I guarantee, keep her by your side, you'll be fine. Leaving her here, you won't have peace of mind either."
Feng Lingxi was already worried about Wan'er's safety. Hearing Gu Li say this, he wavered.
"Sister, why don't you take Wan'er along This girl is smart and quick-witted. Taking her out to see the world would be good for her. She can't just stay in the mansion like a pampered lady."
Anyway, he felt that Wan'er, as she grew up, would definitely not become an excellent lady of a prominent family.
Feng Lingxi frowned and looked at Feng Yumuo as he beckoned to Wan'er. Wan'er actually ran over to him, her excited little expression. Feng Lingxi thought of the things Wan'er from the Yao Clan in Guisheng Kingdom had done, and couldn't help but frown.
It's probably quite difficult to raise a young lady from a wealthy family like this.
"Wan'er cannot go with you."
The sound of footsteps echoed, and a figure emerged from the crowd. It was Luoli, accompanied by Li Wuyan.
Looking at them, Feng Lingxi's eyes were wary.
She is the future chief of the Yao tribe and my apprentice. She cannot go with you. Give her to me. If you are not at ease, I can take care of her.
Luo Li looked at Wan'er and beckoned to her. Wan'er looked at Luo Li but didn't want to follow Luo Li.
If the chieftain won't let Wan'er go, keeping her in the mansion would be safe as well.
Feng Lingxi watched Luo Li, why did she take Wan'er away Wasn't it to prevent him from taking Wan'er and harming her
A fleeting smile touched his lips, brushing past the guarded look in Feng Ling's eyes.
"If that's the case, you have nothing to worry about. She is my disciple. Not only will I not harm her, but no one in the world can."
Luo Li's domineering declaration made Feng Ling Xi hesitate.
This doesn't matter if the Ghost Saint Nation really wants Wan'er to be the clan leader or keep her for use, at least, Luo Li's words reassured her. Wan'er's safety wouldn't be a concern, and she didn't have to take her to Tu Mu Town either, after all, the situation there was unclear, and no one knew what it would develop into.
"You take Wan'er to Tumuzhen. If she falls ill and something happens, are you sure you can cure her Remember, there is nothing absolute in this world."
Feng Lingxi completely gave up taking Wan'er to Tumuwu Town after hearing this.
Even though it's dangerous here, Wan'er is safe here; at least she won't get sick. But over there, she can't guarantee that.
"Won't you really hurt Wan'er"
Feng Lingxi stared at Luo Li, and when he nodded, she clenched her fists.
"If I wanted to harm her, why would I return her to you Besides, she's only two years old. Could she even handle going with you"
"Let my brother take her, don't go looking for trouble with her, can you do that"
Feng Lingxi's words left her own lips, and she felt unbelievable. She was gambling, betting that Luoli cared for Wan'er truly, or if there were ulterior motives.
"OK."
Luoli looked at Wan'er, "If I wanted to take her away, I would have done so long ago. Why would I let her stay by your side"
After saying that, Luoli and Li Wuyan left. He wouldn't only harm Wan'er, but he also forbid anyone from harming the girl, after all, she was the future of the Yao Clan!
"Sister, do you believe what he said"
Feng Yu Mo hugged Wan'er, watching as Wan'er stared at Luoli's leaving figure. Seeing the reluctance in her eyes, Feng Yu Mo hesitated. Luoli was right, this Tumu town was dangerous. If Wan'er accidentally got sick, although her sister had superb medical skills, the current situation was unclear. What if something went wrong
"Wǎner, you stay home and wait for your mother and father to come back, okay"
Feng Lingxi asked Wan'er for her opinion, thinking to herself that if she didn't agree, she should try to talk to her. Unexpectedly, Wan'er actually agreed.
"Mother, Wan'er will listen to Master."
Feng Lingxi was stunned. Wan'er admitted that Luoli was her master, even though she hadn't followed Luoli just now, she acknowledged him in her heart.
"Okay, Mother, I promise I'll be back as soon as possible."
Wan'er nodded, Feng Yu Mo carried her to Feng Yi Xuan and instructed, "Take good care of her."
Feng Yixuan nodded. Although Feng Yumò didn't have a particularly good relationship with him, when it came to dealing with Wan'er, they were on the same page.
Before departing, Feng Lingxi cast a glance at Wan'er. Seeing tears welling up in her eyes, that look of reluctance, he tightened his reins, gritted his teeth, and rode away with a heavy heart.
"Wǎn'er, your mother will be back soon, don't be afraid, Auntie is with you."
Tian Xiaomi patted Wan'er's head, looking at the tears swirling in Wan'er's eyes. She reached out and hugged the child in her arms, soothing Wan'er.
Out of the city, Feng Lingxi's speed increased. She had to reach Tumu Town before nightfall. This trip to Tumu Town, she wasn't carrying many medicinal herbs. Along the way, she also needed to buy some from nearby towns and remind them to restock.
Feng Aotian protected the medicinal herbs and moved forward. Over a hundred people accompanied him on this trip, escorting these herbs. Along the way, they attracted quite a few curious glances.
The temperature in March has started to rise quite a bit, and the days aren't too cold anymore. Plus, with the sun out, it's actually quite bearable overall.
Perhaps because of Luo Li's presence today, no incidents of robbery occurred along the way. By noon, the group stopped on a mountain path to rest and eat, replenishing their energy.
Feng Lingxi sat under a big tree, looking at the medicinal herbs tied to the carriage, her brows furrowed, lost in thought.
"Sister, come eat some."
Feng Yu Mo held a roasted chicken in his hand and tore off a drumstick for her.
Feng Lingxi's pancake in her hand was a bit hard, compared to this chicken leg, it was naturally far inferior.
"Thank you."
Feng Yu Mo sat down beside Feng Ling Xi, and ate a wing of herself.
"Sister, are you still thinking about Luo Li"
"I wonder if the assassins from last night were sent by the Luo Li sect"
She thought there would still be people who wanted to ruin her medicinal herbs along the way, but now, there weren't any.
"It doesn't matter who he is, as long as he doesn't harm Wan'er. As for the herbs, if he dares to take them, I will be the first to hold him accountable."
Wind feather's ink eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness. His brother-in-law had instructed him, this trip, the most important thing was to protect his sister and the medicinal materials, nothing could go wrong.
Fei Lingxi nodded, "You're right, let's continue on our journey after we finish eating, don't waste any time."
After finishing a chicken leg, Feng Lingxi raised her eyes and happened to see Feng Aotian sitting not far away, gnawing on a pancake. His eyes were always fixed on the medicinal herbs, very diligent indeed.
He tore off a chicken leg and, Wind Ling Xi rose to her feet and walked towards Feng Ao Tian.
"General Zhen Guo, have some meat."
Feng Aotian looked at the drumstick Feng Lingxi handed him, somewhat surprised.
"Don't overthink it, it's just your body reacting to the medicine. Eat some good food and recover quickly."
"Thank you, Princess Chen."
Feng Ao Tian Dao Xie Hou, calmly ate, his eyes still fixed on the front.
Feng Lingxi rarely saw Feng Aotian so upright and resolute. Suddenly, she felt that he looked quite like a general like this. Now that she knew they weren't blood relatives, many things had become much easier for her to accept.his wife, especially your elder sister. She says that it's all because the Crown Prince follows your elder sister around causing trouble, and she even calls her a beauty who brings disaster, always st...
