CHAPTER 460: CHAPTER 330: THE FIANCÉE WHO APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE

Yan Jiu seemed to have sniffed out an intense scent of treachery, as if he should not have brought Ye Lingyue here to stop the Young Sect Master of the thick-headed Jueqing Sect.

"Bo Qing, you listen to me first, things are not what you think..." Ye Lingyue had no time to explain.

Bo Qing, furious, hid Ye Lingyue behind him as if a dog had hidden its favorite bone.

"You are the City Lord of Yan City, Yan Jiu. Go back and tell your superior, that person named after heavy. Hong Shisan is my man, as long as I, Bo Qing, am alive for a day, nobody is allowed to touch Thirteen."

The thought of protecting him and not letting anyone hurt him wildly flourished, breaking ground in Bo Qing’s heart.

"Young Sect Master, before making such statements, shouldn’t you ask your old man first, the Sect Leader of Jueqing Sect?" Yan Jiu spread his hands helplessly.

"Bo Qing, you little rascal! How many times have I told you, stop causing trouble outside."

A thunderous voice, carrying boundless authority, split open the clouds overhead.

A golden palm appeared from the skies like a dark cloud without a summit, pressing down from above.

Bo Qing’s handsome face couldn’t help but tremble as he swiftly grabbed Ye Lingyue and took off as if his feet were greased.

But how could he compete with the giant palm? Bo Qing was grasped back through the air like a little chick.

Only then did Ye Lingyue understand why Yan Jiu was interrogating Bo Qing outside Yan City No.9.

Bo Qing’s identity was too special; even Yan Jiu had to give face to the Sect Leader’s Wife of the Jueqing Sect.

"City Lord Yan Jiu, our dog has offended many. Once both parts of the Sect Master couple come out of seclusion, we will definitely visit the Ghost Emperor to apologize."

"Sect Master couple is too polite. I, Yan Jiu, will surely remember this debt and don’t forget to calculate the interest when the time comes," Yan Jiu replied very smoothly.

In the skies, the golden palm clearly faltered in its movement.

Clearly, on this mainland, it had been many years since anyone had spoken to Yan Jiu and the Sect Master couple of the Jueqing Sect in such a manner.

Ye Lingyue took another look at Yan Jiu.

Even with a mask, Ye Lingyue could guess that behind it, that man was probably smiling like a flower.

Wu Zhong, such a figure, actually made friends with a smiling tiger like Yan Jiu. One really couldn’t imagine what it would be like if the two of them sat together.

The golden palm quickly retreated and vanished in the blink of an eye.

"Thirteen, you wait for me! You must wait for me."

Bo Qing’s voice lingered in the clouds.

Yan Jiu couldn’t help but pinch his eyebrows and coughed a few times.

"Miss Ye, you’ve been injured, why not enter the city and wait for a few days? The person delivering the medicine should arrive by then."

Ye Lingyue was hence forced to let Jin Wu Old Monster go back first and briefly explained her situation to Xiahou Qi, deciding to stay in Yan City No.9 for a while.

A few days later, in the Feng Residence of Beiqing, Feng Xun was holding a piece of paper in his hand.

On the paper, there was only a brief sentence, but it was this sentence that caused the normally undisturbed Feng Xun to change his facial color.

"Ye Lingyue seriously injured, urgently needs Nirvana Heart Lotus."

The signature there was the name of Yan Jiu.

The letter in his hand suddenly tightened, and a cold gleam flitted across Feng Xun’s eyes. Damn that Yan Jiu!

Although Feng Xun had known that Ye Lingyue had been on the Xixia Plain recently, he did not expect Ye Lingyue to appear in Yan City No.9, let alone suffer such severe injuries there.

City Lord Yan Jiu only told Ye Lingyue that she needed to change her skin, but he did not tell her that if she couldn’t do so within a month, her burns would become incurable forever.

That’s also why City Lord Yan Jiu insisted on having Ye Lingyue stay in Yan City No.9.

Feng Xun has been like a walking medicine pot since he was a child, even more familiar with the medicinal herbs of the mainland than Ye Lingyue.

Despite the fact that City Lord Yan Jiu deliberately wrote the letter concisely, hiding the true reason for Ye Lingyue’s injury,

Feng Xun knew that the Nirvana Heart Lotus was a magical herb that could regenerate a large area of skin.

It is a very unique eighth-grade Spiritual Flower that can regenerate a large area of skin without leaving any flaws.

However, this flower blooms only once every hundred years, and it requires a very specific environment to grow in – the Ice and Fire Spring.

There are, at most, three such springs across the entire mainland.

And within the Beiqing Realm, there happens to be one, located inside the Dan Palace.

"Teacher, prepare the carriage for me, I am going to the Dan Palace," Feng Xun said as he stood up gracefully.

"Prince, are you feeling unwell and need to see Master Hong Ru?" Old Sir Mu asked anxiously.

"No, I am going to see the Heavenly Maiden," replied Feng Xun lightly.

The Beiqing Pill Palace is known as the gathering place for Beiqing Alchemists.

As luxurious as the Dan Palace is, it is similar to the Imperial Palace of Beiqing, with jade steps throughout, and the walls adorned with Luminous Pearls for illumination.

Feng Xun, a familiar face of the Dan Palace, entered without any obstruction.

"It’s Prince Feng, have you come to see the Heavenly Maiden? I will inform her immediately," a female alchemist clad in a Cloud Brocade Alchemist Robe said with a smile upon seeing Feng Xun and swiftly ran inside.

Within Beiqing, all alchemists aspire to enter the Dan Palace, and within it, two people hold the most respected status.

The first is Chen Hongru, the number one alchemist in Beiqing, and the second is Dan Palace Heavenly Maiden Xue Pianran.

And Feng Xun was there this time to see Xue Pianran.

The sound of a jade pendant tinkling announced her approach, as a blue-clothed young girl walked over. With her long hair, gentle and warm eyes, despite being below only one and above thousands, she didn’t possess the typical cold and aloof demeanor of those in the Dan Palace.

Heavenly Maiden Xue Pianran, beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal, radiated a soft glow like white jade.

She was about the same age as Feng Xun, and in fact, they were indeed childhood sweethearts.

Emperor Beiqing once said, both Feng Xun and Xue Pianran were beauties of the mortal world, with Feng Xun’s beauty being unparalleled, and Xue Pianran’s beauty also being dazzlingly unique.

To Xue Pianran, Feng Xun was one of a kind, and she also always believed that she was irreplaceable in Feng Xun’s heart.

Simply because Xue Pianran from birth was graced with the auspicious light of Phoenix, by the age of three, she could observe the celestial patterns and predict the trends of the world.

At the age of five, she even answered three questions from the three elders of the Dan Palace and was chosen to be the Heavenly Maiden of the Dan Palace.

But aside from the identity of the Heavenly Maiden, Xue Pianran’s other identity is that of Feng Xun’s fiancée.

This match was designated jointly by Emperor Beiqing and Chen Hongru; at the time, Feng Xun was only ten and though he didn’t consent, he also didn’t refuse.

Everyone thought that Feng Xun would marry Xue Pianran once he turned eighteen.

At least, that was the assumption before Feng Xun left for Beiqing.

"Xun, you’ve finally come to see me," Xue Pianran said, joy tinting her eyes upon seeing Feng Xun, yet her face always wore the perfect, flawless smile.
