Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City—the first stop on Qian Renxue, Ling Yuan JieJie, and Lin Feng's journey.
Besides simple sightseeing, they also had matters resembling a mission to attend to.
"Long time no see, Wanqing."
Under Ye Wanqing's stunned gaze, Ling Yuan JieJie and Qian Renxue each held one of Lin Feng's hands as they slowly entered the gates of the Nine Heart Begonia Family.
"Y-you... you two, she, and him..."
Ling Yuan JieJie stepped forward and rubbed Ye Wanqing's cheeks.
"It's pretty much what you think."
Ye Wanqing's eyes widened. She pushed away Ling Yuan JieJie's mischievous hand, sounding slightly reproachful.
"How can this be? You were clearly here first."
The corners of Qian Renxue's lips lifted as she winked at Ling Yuan JieJie.
"Actually, I was the one who came later."
Good heavens.
Ye Wanqing covered her mouth with one hand. She wanted to say something, but no words came out.
She clicked her tongue and shook her head.
"Fine, as long as you're happy. You really are something."
Taking Ye Wanqing's delicate hand, Ling Yuan JieJie smiled.
"Where's your sister? We came to see her."
"She's in the rear courtyard, keeping Lingling company. Is there something important?"
Lin Feng nodded.
"We came to fulfill our previous agreement."
A look of realization appeared on Ye Wanqing's face, and she grew excited.
"So, Xiao Feng, has your research made a breakthrough? I've cultivated those paths too. Is it a Cultivation Method beyond those?"
"More or less."
"Then hurry inside."
Upon entering the rear courtyard, Mother Ye and Ye Lingling were speaking quietly at a stone table. Ye Lingling nodded blankly from time to time.
When she saw Lin Feng's group of three arrive with Ye Wanqing, Mother Ye was surprised for a moment before discreetly ending the conversation.
