âWe do have that spirit herb that can heal her, but do you think... I would give it to her easily? Yiâer is already fascinated by her. If she gets her beauty back, wouldnât he be even more infatuated?â Zong Fu paused. âMoreover, when Iâve found that spirit herb, Iâll use it to force Qin Feiâer to reveal the secret of her breakthrough to Holy Warrior tier...â
The elder sighed. If the sect master did not care too much about the young master, perhaps... It would not have been so troublesome.
Why did the young master become so obsessed with Qin Feiâer?
The elder did not care how beautiful Qin Feiâer used to be, but now she was just a woman with white hair and fine lines on her face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The young master was only in his early twenties, but why... Was he so infatuated with her?â
âSect Master...â The elder paused. âForgive me for speaking too much, this Qin Feiâer is still young. Iâm sure she is not as innocent as you think. She is more ambitious, and Iâm afraid itâs a bit difficult to get her to talk just by using that spirit herb...â
Qin Feiâer was the kind of woman who would grab onto the last surviving hope.
She knew that the young master liked her, and she knew that the sect master loved the young master very much. If she could win the young masterâs heart... The sect master would be helpless.
Bringing back a woman like this would definitely be disastrous to the Divine Herbs Sect.
Zong Fu rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on. âThereâs no need to think about it so much for now. Weâll discuss this matter after the meeting. The Divine Herbs Sect assembly is the most important now.â
The Divine Herbs Sect assembly was held once every three years.
It had always been like this.
Every three years, the Divine Herbs Sect would invite the major forces of the reclusive world to discuss matters together.
Even the two forces that had a grudge against each other in the reclusive world would sit together peacefully on that day. They had to respect the sect master after all...
âYes, Master.â
The elder responded respectfully.

Tian Shen Manor.
In the backyard of the Mu family, a young girl leaned lazily against the pavilion. Her fine black hair floated around like a waterfall, beautiful like in a picture.
Standing beside her was a quiet and well-behaved woman with a disfigured face. She was blinking as she watched Feng Ruqing.
âXiao Ya...â Feng Ruqing smiled and beckoned to her. âYou donât have to stand, just come over and sit here.â
This mute girl was brought back from the chief manorâs backyard a year ago by Feng Ruqing and had since remained by her side.
The year Feng Ruqing left, Xiao Ya had somehow disappeared and never returned, and even though Suyi had sent people to look for her, they could not find her.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ya came back when Feng Ruqing returned to Tian Shen Manor.
Xiao Ya sat nicely next to Feng Ruqing and looked at her quietly.
âI wonât ask where youâve been this year. Just follow me around from now on, and donât get lost.â Feng Ruqing did not mind and stroked Xiao Yaâs messy hair. âAnd... Your hairstyle looks cute, but I like a girl who looks clean and fresh. If you canât tidy it up yourself, next time, let the Mu familyâs servant do it for you.â
Xiao Ya nodded obediently. Her eyes were like the twinkling stars in the vast night sky.
Before Feng Ruqing could continue, a joyful voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard, carrying excitement and exhilaration.
âXiao Qing!!!â
Feng Ruqing was startled, and as she glanced sideway, she saw an extremely familiar but long-lost figure running wildly toward her.
Unfortunately... Her speed was a little slower and she was overtaken by a snow-white figure, which pounced directly on Feng Ruqing...
âHowl!â
