Chapter 675 [Listen to the Phoenix 11]
Feng Wu naturally couldn't just watch Jun Linyuan live here so openly. The next morning, the sun shone through the mottled leaves on the ground, forming patches of light and shadows. Feng Wu took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to take the initiative to look for Jun Linyuan, hoping that he could find another place to stay.
When Feng Wu arrived in front of Jun Linyuan, she saw that he was tall and straight, with a majestic demeanor, and his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. Feng Wu calmed down and said, "Your Highness, my humble room is too simple to entertain a distinguished person like you. I hope you can be gracious and find a more comfortable place to live."
However, Jun Linyuan shook his head without hesitation, expressing his refusal. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and he said: "I think this place is very good, and... I don't know why, I always feel that you are quite similar to that Feng Xiaowu."
Hearing this, Feng Wu's heart suddenly tightened, fearing that her identity would be discovered. So, she quickly changed the subject, pretending to be angry, and accused Jun Linyuan coquettishly, "Your Highness, what do you mean by this? Are you hinting that I am ugly?"
At this time, news came from City Lord Bi. It turned out that after some investigation, they finally found some important clues. It was said that Feng Xiaowu had visited an alchemist. When Jun Linyuan heard the news, the old man Ba, whom they had met before, suddenly appeared in his mind.
Knowing that Old Man Ba might be related to Feng Xiaowu, Jun Linyuan immediately decided to lead everyone to rush to Old Man Ba's residence. Feng Wu was secretly worried, afraid that something unexpected would happen, but she couldn't express it directly, so she could only follow the team silently. Along the way, her heart was hanging in her throat, and she kept praying that nothing would go wrong.
Jun Linyuan frowned slightly, stared at Old Man Ba with a sharp gaze, and asked in a deep voice: "Old Man Ba, let me ask you, have you ever known Feng Xiaowu?"
When Old Man Ba heard this, his heart skipped a beat, his eyes flickered, and he stammered, not being able to utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Seeing this, Jun Linyuan's face became even gloomier, and an invisible pressure spread.
Old man Ba knew that he could no longer hide the truth, so he had to bite the bullet and start making up stories. He sighed and said slowly, "Alas! Feng Xiaowu's life is so miserable! She was a helpless little girl, but she was kidnapped by the villains of the Dark Night Court. How pitiful..." He even pretended to wipe away tears after saying that.
Jun Linyuan listened quietly to what Old Man Ba said, with no expression on his face.
However, just when Old Man Ba thought he had gotten away with it, Jun Linyuan suddenly stood up, turned around and was about to leave without saying a word.
Before leaving, he stopped, turned slightly to look at Feng Wu, raised his hand and gently tapped her forehead three times.
Feng Wu's heart tightened secretly, but she remained calm on the surface. After confirming that Old Man Ba had properly hidden the precious elixir, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed Jun Linyuan back to the Feng family's old house. Along the way, Feng Wu was wondering what Jun Linyuan's move meant. At this time, Jun Linyuan's steps were steady and powerful, as if everything was under control.
On the other side, Zuo Qingluan and Mu Yao finally succeeded in subduing the terrifying beast after going through untold hardships. Afterwards, the two of them rushed to the border city without stopping.
When they arrived at this exotic city, Zuo Qingyuan was worried about her junior sister Youyou and couldn't wait to find her. However, at this moment, she received a reply letter from Youyou. The handwriting in the letter was beautiful and the words were sincere. Youyou said that she would come to meet them in a few days and specifically told Zuo Qingyuan not to make another trip for this.
Zuo Qingyuan, whose expectations were dashed, could not help but feel a little helpless, but she could only follow Youyou's arrangement. So, she had to take Mu Yao to find a suitable inn in this bustling border city to stay for the time being.
After settling down, Zuo Qingyuan sat in front of the window and recalled every moment she spent with Youyou. Suddenly, she remembered that Youyou had a special liking for those beautiful jewelry.
Thinking of this, Zuo Qingyuan turned to look at Mu Yao beside him, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and suggested: "Why don't we go out for a walk? Maybe we can pick out some nice jewelry as a gift for Chaoge!" Mu Yao readily agreed, and the two of them went out happily.
The streets were bustling with people coming and going. Zuo Qingyuan and Mu Yao walked between the stalls, their eyes attracted by the dazzling array of goods. They carefully selected various exquisite jewelry, sometimes picking up a piece to examine it carefully, and sometimes bargaining with the stall owner.
Before they knew it, the sun was setting, and they had more and more packages in their hands. Although they were a little tired, they both had happy smiles on their faces when they thought of Youyou's happy face when she saw these gifts.
