A Mysterious Figure Attacks
The Cloud-Shrinking Boat is one of the nine divine artifacts of the Azure Dragon Continent. It was obtained by the founding monarch of the Yan State more than five thousand years ago. With the help of the Cloud-Shrinking Boat, the Yan Kingdom shared the world with the other four kingdoms and established its five-thousand-year -Yan State.
It can be said that the national treasure played an indispensable role in the reason why the five kings were able to stand out from many outstanding people.
This is enough to prove just how powerful the national treasure is.
It was only after Crown Prince Yan comprehended the Emperor's Aura at the Mysterious Bookstore that he was able to successfully reclaim the throne through the power of the national treasure.
Although Qin Shi Huang's cultivation level is now unfathomable, no one believes he can kill Crown Prince Yan is protected by a national treasure.
However, these are all speculations. We'll only know for sure when Crown Prince Yan and Yan Xun reappear.
It was half an hour later when Ma Feifei learned of the news, which was brought to him by Zhang Yunji, but he wasn't too surprised.
Because he had already prepared for this. Although Qin Shi Huang was crazy, he was not stupid. If he could kill Yan Xun and Crown Prince Yan on their way back, the Yan State would definitely be thrown into chaos. At that time, Qin State would be able to invade the Yan State without lifting a finger.
The same situation won't only happen to Qin Shi Huang and Yan Xun; Ma Feifei believes that these thirty-five people will definitely have more conflicts in the future.
For example, Qin Shi Huang.
According to Ma Feifei's previous conjecture, Qin Shi Huang should have been the first to be assassinated, as there were far too many people on the Azure Dragon Continent who wanted Qin Shi Huang dead.
Yan Xun and Crown Prince Yan were simply stopped by Qin Shi Huang Me First.
"But then again, why does it feel like the way things have turned out in the five kingdoms is all my fault?" Ma Feifei stood under the plum tree in the backyard, looking at the bare plum tree, and sighed.
If the elixir of Longevity Pill he gave Qin Shi Huang had been safe, Qin Shi Huang wouldn't have gone mad, he wouldn't have launched a direct attack on the Yan State, and the current situation wouldn't have arisen.
"You're crazy. It's too late to be so hindsight." Ma Feifei shook his head, turned around, and found a chair to sit down.
"Besides, Yun Qingyang did all this, what does it have to do with me?"
"What did I do?" Yun Qingyang appeared beside Ma Feifei and asked curiously.
"No, it's just that these past few days, people have been praising the paintings on the Bookstore walls, thinking I posted them. How could I possibly paint such beautiful pictures? So I told them that those paintings were all done by our Mysterious Bookstore's Saint." Ma Feifei didn't blush at all when lying, and said it with a straight face.
"Is that really true?" Yun Qingyang frowned as she stared at Ma Feifei, clearly not believing it.
"Would I lie to you?" Ma Feifei stood up calmly and walked towards the Bookstore, preparing to slip away.
"Where are you going?" Yun Qingyang asked from behind.
"Go to the toilet."
"Hold on for a bit, someone's looking for you."
"Who's looking for me?" Ma Feifei stopped and turned to look at Yun Qingyang with a puzzled expression.
"Your fiancée," Yun Qingyang said, enunciating each word clearly, and Ma Feifei could hear the chilling murderous intent in his tone.
"Azi?" Ma Feifei said subconsciously.
"Crack, crack, crack," the air began to get cold, and the sound of water freezing into ice filled the air.
"I'm going to make it clear to her right now that I won't marry her!" Ma Feifei said and hurriedly ran into the Bookstore, his face covered in sweat. It was really tough for him in this December weather.
Since the last time a rumor, which seemed to come out of nowhere, said that Ma Feifei was going to marry Princess Azi of Qi State, Ma Feifei had not seen Azi again. Today, upon seeing her again, Ma Feifei felt somewhat uneasy for some reason, and the way he looked at Azi was different.
"Am I having romantic feelings?" Ma Feifei wondered to herself.
"Shopkeeper." Azi was led back to the backyard by Ma Feifei. Yun Qingyang had disappeared. Zhang Caicai and Mu Qingyi seemed to have gone to Nine Heavens Mountain to find fresh ingredients. Ba Jiu seemed to have gone with them as well. The courtyard was empty.
"Ah! What brings you to the Mysterious Bookstore today?" Ma Feifei asked casually, inviting Azi to sit down.
Today, Azi is wearing a purple robe and has her hair tied in a ponytail. Her face is fair and delicate, and with her slender figure, she is lively, cute, and full of youthful energy.
"Shopkeeper, Azi is returning to Qi State today." Azi lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Ma Feifei in the eye.
"Oh, then I, the shopkeeper, wish Miss Azi Tailwind in advance." Ma Feifei felt that he was very polite, just like a refined gentleman. It was a pity that he didn't have a folding fan, otherwise the artistic conception could be even higher.
Azi originally came to Dubian Town to wait for her father, King Qi Wen. Now that King Qi Wen has regained his freedom, he naturally has to rush back to the State of Qi State, Azi will definitely have to go back with him.
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Azi fidgeted with the hem of her clothes shyly, then fell silent.
Ma Feifei looked completely bewildered, but from this angle, she couldn't see Azi's face clearly, and she had no idea what A Zi meant.
Azi remained silent, and Ma Feifei didn't know what to say either, so the atmosphere became awkward and quiet.
"Call"
A gust of wind blew by, making Ma Feifei shiver. She looked around, her face full of confusion. Why did this wind feel so unusually cold?
"Shopkeeper." Finally, Azi spoke up.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" Ma Feifei responded softly.
"Azi is waiting for you in Qi State." Azi raised her head, looking at Ma Feifei with a firm gaze, and said.
"Huh?" Ma Feifei was a little confused.
"Azi is leaving first." Azi's face was already as red as an apple. Seeing that Ma Feifei was confused, she didn't care whether he understood what she meant or not, and ran straight to the back door to leave the Mysterious Bookstore.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't go! I'm still one short of my Book-holding woman count. Let's settle this first!" Ma Feifei shouted from behind, but Azi some reason, the more Ma Feifei shouted, the faster he ran. Frustrated, Ma Feifei got up and chased after him himself.
Fortunately, Azi didn't run far before Ma Feifei caught up with her. However, they happened to be on a long street surrounded by cultivators. When they saw Ma Feifei and Azi chasing each other, Azi's face turned red, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward. Everyone looked at the two of them with strange eyes.
"Oh dear! What's going on?" Ma Feifei grabbed Azi's hand and activated his Innate Purple Qi with one hand. A purple aura swirled around them and then disappeared.
"Wow! The shop owner is amazing!" The onlookers were all stunned by what they saw.
In the corner, two men dressed in white robes watched this scene quietly, one young and one middle-aged. If Ma Feifei could see them, he would recognize who the young man was.
