"Ugh."
After an unknown amount of time, Jiu Feng frowned, clutching his throbbing head as he slowly sat up. His eyes gradually opened, filled with deep confusion.
"Brother Jiu Feng, you're awake?" Xiao Yan, who had already endured Cai Lin's scolding, saw Jiu Feng awaken and crouched down beside him, asking gently, "How does your body feel?"
"Not bad. By the way, you're Xiao Yan?"
Jiu Feng was stunned. He swept his gaze around and found several unfamiliar people following Xiao Yan. Among them, only Yao Tianhuo was someone he had met before.
At that moment, Phoenix strolled over and spoke leisurely.
"Jiu Feng, the opportunity of the Bodhi Ancient Tree is too demanding for you this time. For your safety, it would be best for you to give up this opportunity. Do you have any objections?"
Although Phoenix sounded as though she were discussing it with him, her tone allowed no room for doubt.
"Oh, okay."
Jiu Feng nodded blankly. Setting aside the fact that Phoenix's words made perfect sense, there were only two people Jiu Feng feared most in his life: his Father and the Aunt in Front of him. As long as what these two said did not involve Feng Qing'er, Jiu Feng did not dare disobey them.
"Why is he here too?"
Jiu Feng pointed at Xiao Yan and asked. Phoenix promptly gave her answer.
"He came for the Bodhi Ancient Tree's opportunity as well. We'll act together with them afterward and help him obtain it."
Phoenix answered concisely, naturally without revealing the relationship between Xiao Yan and Feng Qing'er. She knew her nephew's temperament far too well. If she told him, this ultimate sister-obsessed maniac would definitely fight Xiao Yan to the death.
"Help him... I don't really have a problem with that."
Jiu Feng
