Chapter 337
The Tempestuous Consort – Wilfully Pampered by the Beastly Highness
Feng Tianlan quizzically observed Si Mobaiâs behavior then asked, âWhatâs wrong?â His expression had become very grave after touching the red dot.
Si Mobai snapped out of it and put his hand down as he looked at Feng Tianlan. He decided to go along with her, saying, âI wonât interfere so long as your life is not in danger.â
The seal couldnât be broken in the near future, nor could it be broken now. If those people discovered who he was, then Si Ming, Demon Palace, Lanâer, all of them would be in terrible danger—danger far greater than they were facing now.
âActually, you should believe in me.â Feng Tianlan bit her lip and looked up straight at Si Mobai. She said, âThereâs nobody on the Guiyuan Continent who can hurt me, and all cultivators are bound to get hurt.â
She was reasonably confident that nobody on the Guiyuan Continent could kill her, even if one counted the people from Flying Frost Pavilion. But her skill level was still low, so some injuries, even severe ones, were unavoidable.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Si Mobai looked at the self-confidence and bold arrogance slapped across Feng Tianlanâs face. His heart was much moved whenever she was like that. He also believed in her without a doubt. She had this sort of charm and capability.
âEven if I believe in you, Iâll still be worried.â He didnât want to take her life lightly. Even if she were the sky itself, he would still worry that it might one day suddenly fall.
Feng Tianlan couldnât help her face from reddening. She said, âEnough, you go ahead.â
Si Mobai gently grunted. He had to give her enough time and space to mature because they had a long road ahead. After this stint in the Misty Forest, he wouldnât be able to be by her side all the time. It was good to allow her to grow and become a strong fighter by herself.
No pain, no gain!
âOh, my, my! Our little Lanâerâs heart has been moved!â Luo Yunzhu immediately hurried over the moment Si Mobai left. She laughed and teased Feng Tianlan when she saw that Feng Tianlanâs face was all red from shyness.
Feng Tianlan glared in annoyance at her and snapped, âWhat nonsense are you saying?â
âWhat nonsense? Anyone whoâs not blind can see it.â Luo Yunzhu poked Feng Tianlan in the face then ran to catch up with her when Feng Tianlan turned to leave. âSince that incident, youâve become much colder than before. Cold enough to be South Peace Cityâs second Wargod. But then, in front of Si Mobai, you display all these shy behaviors and emotions. That makes you more human, ok?â
âIâm always the same with all of you.â Feng Tianlan thought about how she had treated everyone equally since her rebirth. She didnât think that there was much of a difference.
âThe same? Far from it. Have you been angry with me? Have you been shy around me?â
Feng Tianlan stopped in her tracks and looked at Luo Yunzhu. She was about to retort, but Luo Yunzhu was a step ahead of her. She said, âItâs only normal that youâve never been angry with me. But you werenât angry at all even when faced with those people who insulted you. Even after you punished them and killed them, you didnât even blink an eye. Youâre like a wooden dummy that doesnât have a soul.â
Feng Tianlan frowned. She felt that Luo Yunzhu was just exaggerating. Feng Tianlan was only good at covering up her emotions and didnât like them to show.
âEven in front of us, the only emotion you display is how you want to be nice to us and protect us. But itâs different in front of the Wargod. Youâre shy, youâre angry, youâre frustrated...â
Luo Yunzhu tilted her head as if she didnât know how to describe the situation any clearer. The words got stuck for a while before she continued, âIn any case, in front of us, youâre like this woodblock that passes off as human. But in front of Wargod, youâre a real person with a soul. Thatâs the real you.â
âThatâs not true. I am the same around everyone,â Feng Tianlan calmly replied.
âActually, you didnât have many feelings for Si Rong, either. You only liked him because that piece of paper about your engagement misled you.â
