Chapter 1289: War Clouds Gather
"Then I'll make a wager with you. Before Xi’er recovers her memories, will she fall in love with me"Huangpu Qingyun smiled confidently, "Also, rest assured, this palace won't take her Zixing. Otherwis..."Don't keep calling me your sister, I told you I won't acknowledge you."
Feng Lingxi's voice was full of helplessness, but Lu Nian ignored her completely. After all, he just called her sister, and Feng Lingxi was his sister anyway. What was there to mind
"Let's not discuss titles. Listen carefully to what I have to say, okay"
Lu Nian's tone was full of displeasure, "Why bother with such trivial matters"
Feng Lingxi wanted to say, since he didn't care about titles, why couldn't he give her a different one Didn't he want the whole world to know she was his sister
It's a good thing Mother isn't here. Otherwise, hearing him keep calling her "sister" would make me think he had actually recognized me as his older brother.
"What's up"
Lü Niàn heard that Feng Língxī had spoken to him, and chuckled.
"When our parents come, after they leave, can you give me some face and let me meet them"
"You're here" Feng Lingxi was startled. Lu Nian hadn't lied to her, the father who abandoned his wife and daughter really had come to find her.
Lu Nian nodded, looking at Feng Ling Xi's reaction, "Didn't I tell you They're coming."
"Your parents and your two brothers"
Whether they will come or not, I don't know. But my parents really did come.
Lu Nian looked at Feng Lingxi's tangled expression and quickly comforted her, "Just think of it as a visit. You are the Princess Consort of Chen, who you meet isn't a big deal. Just give me some face, okay"
Lü Nian started to act cute, which really made Feng Lingxi's scalp tingle. She couldn't stand it and nodded.
"Tell them that I met them because of your help this time, but that I don't recognize them."
"Okay."
As long as she agreed to meet, he would consider the task complete. Whether or not she acknowledged him as her father and mother didn't matter much to him anyway, since Feng Lingxi hadn't recognized him either.
Dugu Cheng looked at Lu Nian, who was clinging to Feng Lingxi. Along the way, he hadn't even been able to say a word to Xi'er, let alone anyone else. This Lu Nian monopolized Feng Lingxi, not letting anyone get close. Due to his identity, Dugu Cheng couldn't do anything about him yet.
"This Lu Nian is truly inseparable from Xi'er, step by step. Are you really at ease with this"
"What else could I do He only sees Xi'er as a younger sister, not competing with me for a woman." Though he was unhappy inside, she was still his brother-in-law. Not to mention, there were also two other brothers-in-law and a doting mother-in-law who adored her daughter. It seemed Xi'er wouldn't have time to be with him anytime soon.
The smile at the corner of her lips widened, a pair of narrow, long peach blossom eyes slightly lifted, "How interesting."
Back at the Chen Wangfu, Luoli and Li Wuyan went to see Wan'er. Feng Lingxi had Dugu City help her greet Lu Nian, while she herself went to visit Feng Yumuo. These days, she hadn't been at the mansion, and she didn't know how Yumuo's injuries were recovering.
As soon as Feng Yumo's courtyard, she heard Feng Yumo's roar. Feng Lingxi was startled and the sound of smashing things came. Feng Lingxi quickly walked in, the yard was in disarray.
Guli stood by the door, covering her arms, tears streaming down her face.
"Guli, what happened"
Hearing Feng Lingxi's voice, Gu Li turned her head back, hugging Feng Lingxi with grievance, tears falling even harder.
"Your Highness, please help Yu Mo quickly. He pulled off his finger."
"What!"
Wind Lingxi was startled by Gu Li's words and rushed in. Seeing Feng Yumo, dressed only in a single garment, at the bedside, she realized that just a few days had passed since they last saw each other. Feng Yumo's beard hadn't been trimmed, and the teenager who had been just over ten years old now looked like a middle-aged man, his disheveled appearance almost making Wind Lingxi unable to recognize him.
Feng Yu Mo saw Feng Ling Xi, and his usually irritable temper calmed down immediately. His expression became slightly awkward, and he walked aside without calling out to Feng Ling Xi.
"What happened Why did you get yourself into this state"
Feng Lingxi walked over and grabbed Feng Yumo's right wrist, wanting to take a look at his fingers, but Feng Yumo pulled his hand back, his eyes dodging, his voice laced with a hint of panic.
"When are you coming back"
"Just arrived."
Looking at Feng Yu Mo's appearance, Feng Ling Xi felt heartache and sighed softly, apologizing to him.
"Yu Mo, I'm sorry, sister has ignored you these past few days." Feng Ling Xi walked to his side and sat down. "I went to the military camp to find Gu Li that day, and then went up the mountain to look for your brother-in-law. He said he was going down the mountain, so I just went with him to have a look. Unexpectedly, something happened in that village. It was caused by Xin Shui's aftermath. I couldn't bear to leave, so I stayed there to deal with it. I stayed there for several days."
Looking at Feng Yu Mo's right finger, "Sister, I'm sorry. Your finger isn't healed yet. I..."
"This is none of your business."
Feng Yu Mo interrupted Feng Ling Xi's apology, "It was I who broke my finger."
"Why"
Feng Lingxi looked at him, her eyes full of suspicion.
He said he didn't want to owe me a favor.
As Gu Li spoke, tears streamed down her face, "It was me who harmed him."
Feng Lingxi looked at Feng Yu Mo, "What do you mean by that What do you mean she harmed you"
"Sister, this is between her and me. You don't understand, you wouldn't get it."
Wind Feather Ink was very irritable. Hearing Gu Li's voice, he didn't want to discuss this matter, especially in front of his sister, he was even more reluctant.
"Guli, please go outside first. I want to talk to him."
Feng Lingxi looked at Gu Li's eyes, which were red and swollen from crying. She was such a good girl; Feng Yu Mo shouldn't treat her this way. Aren't the two of them pretty close
Gu Li glanced at Feng Yu Mo, then covered her face and left.
"Little Li, go take a look at her and bring some water to wash up for Yu Mo. She looks terrible."
Xiao Li responded and followed Guli out.
Only Feng Lingxi and Feng Yumuo remained in the room, the atmosphere somewhat quiet.
Feng Yu Mo sat there, his expression dim.
“The heart demon had unleashed a seven-day madness poison in that village. The poison came from a dog belonging to her subordinates. That dog bit two people in the village, and they became infected, went mad, and attacked anyone they saw. They would completely lose their minds after only seven days.”
Feng Lingxi didn't ask him about Gu Li, but instead told Feng Yumo about what she had done in the village these past few days. She hoped that Feng Yumo would understand that this time, being able to send Xinshui back to the Ghost Saint Kingdom was actually a real achievement for Gu Li.
Hearing this, Feng Yu Mo's body trembled slightly, and she hurriedly asked, "Sister, are you not hurt"
"No, but this time what Xinshui did made me understand more. Do you know what happens when the Seven Days Madness disease progresses to the later stages"
Feng Yu Mo shook his head, his eyes becoming more alert.
"Werewolves, their howls sound just like wolves, and they can also summon packs of wolves, it's terrifying."
"In other words, the purpose of this heart's desire is to raise a pack of werewolves for her to use"
Maybe so, but she was sent back to the Spirit Saint Country, escorted by Luo Li herself. This time around, it's unlikely we'll have any trouble for a while, allowing us to live peacefully for another two months.
"If this obsession isn't removed, it will truly be a disaster. Shouldn't we just kill her"Prince of the West roared angrily.Luo Juzhou bit her lip,委屈 and dared not speak again. After a while, footsteps came from outside the door. Luo Juzhou looked up and saw Shutai Fei and Dugu Chengfeng...
