My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 58: Aunt Mo

Chapter 58: Aunt Mo

“Sir Si Zheng!” Qin Feng exclaimed excitedly, as if he had seen his savior.

Si Zheng nodded in acknowledgment and then looked at the corpse of the warrior on the ground furrowing his brow.

Qin Feng wasn’t sure if the arrival of the senior serpent was a good or bad thing. Seizing the opportunity, he hurriedly ran to Si Zheng’s side, seeking refuge.

The woman in the black robe, seeing this, raised an eyebrow but didn’t say much.

She remained still, perhaps wary of the situation. Qin Feng sighed in relief and asked, “Sir Si Zheng why are you here? And this person, he was a seventh-rank warrior from the city lord’s mansion. How did he end up like this?”

Si Zheng didn’t hide anything and explained the situation.

Originally, after the small shadow used for tracking was discovered, Si Zheng became vigilant. He kept a close watch on the movements in the city lord’s mansion. Two warriors who seemed suspicious were assigned to guard Ye Luoting inside the mansion, while the other would roam around Jinyang City.

Si Zheng had his subordinates closely monitor the mansion’s activities while he secretly followed the warrior who had attacked him just now.

Qin Feng nodded at his words. “There is indeed something wrong with the city lord’s mansion. This person doesn’t look ordinary at all. Wait a moment, Sir Si Zheng, you were following this person. Does that mean you were present when he attacked me with a sword?”

“Yes, but I didn’t expect him to suddenly attack you,” Si Zheng said casually.

Qin Feng gave him a sideways glance, resembling a resentful woman. “You were there, yet you didn’t help me. What if my Heavenly Mirror couldn’t withstand the first blow?”

The woman in the black robe, perhaps growing impatient, spoke up, “Are you done talking? If you are, I’ll take this kid away.”

“Take me away? Huh, I bet you don’t know who this person beside me is?” Qin Feng coughed lightly. “Let me introduce you formally. This is Sir Si Zheng, from the Demon Slayer Department in Jinyang City. Unrivaled in battle, he detests evil creatures, and he won’t spare any demon or monster.”

He emphasized the word “demon,” indirectly reminding the woman that the senior serpent wasn’t a wicked being. There was no need to be excessively violent; scaring her away would be sufficient.

However…

“I know,” the woman said, a hint of indifference in her tone.

Qin Feng was shocked. If you knew, why didn’t you run? You’re a snake beast! Encountering Sir Si Zheng, fleeing would be your only option!

At this moment, Si Zheng sighed, saying, “Kid, how did you manage to provoke her?”

Qin Feng was stunned. What do you mean? Do you two know each other?

Before he could ask, Si Zheng continued, “You said before that you wouldn’t harm Jinyang City.”

The woman in the black robe shrugged, waves rippling across her chest. “I harmed him? I’m just taking this kid back to handle some matters. Once it’s done, I’ll naturally send him back. Moreover, if I truly wanted to harm Jinyang City, could you stop me?”

In her beautiful eyes, a glint of green light flickered. In this narrow alley, the space seemed to tremble. Qin Feng felt like a massive stone was pressing against his chest, making it hard to breathe.

Just a single glance could have such an effect. How powerful was the senior serpent?

Wait, Sir Si Zheng, won’t abandon me, right?

Qin Feng turned his head to look at Si Zheng, who nodded slightly, giving him a reassuring look.

Seeing this, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there was still some friendship between them.

“I’ll entrust this kid to you. Remember, you must safely send him back.”

“.”

In just a few moments, Qin Feng experienced the coldness of human nature. He stared blankly at the approaching woman in the black robe. Lowering his gaze, he thought that perhaps only someone with such a broad mind could bring a hint of warmth to his cold heart in this cruel world.

On the way to the Black Mist Forest, there was silence. The oppressive atmosphere made Qin Feng, already uneasy, increasingly restless.

Summoning his courage, he broke the silence, “Senior Serpent, may I ask how I should address you?”

The woman in the black robe glanced at him, sensing his unease. She teased, “What senior? I’m only a few hundred years older than you. As for what to call me… informally, you can call me Aunt Mo San.”

“A few hundred years older, and you want me to call you aunt? Aren’t you being shameless?” Qin Feng smirked. After a moment of contemplation, he shamelessly called out, “Sister Mo~”

Hearing this, Aunt Mo burst into laughter, her eyes sparkling.

Sure enough, regardless of the era or background, it’s an eternal truth to underestimate a woman’s age.

“Sister Mo, there’s something I’d like to ask for your advice,” Qin Feng tried to please.

“‘Go ahead, little brother, sister is listening,” Aunt Mo’s smile deepened.

“‘I don’t know why sister Mo is taking me back to the Black Mist Forest. What exactly are we going to do?”

“‘It’s not a big deal, but do you remember the grilled barbarian beef you made for the young master a month ago?”

“The young master is that little white creature.”

Qin Feng nodded. He remembered the twists and turns during the trip to the Black Mist Forest vividly.

Aunt Mo sighed and touched her face helplessly. “Since the young master ate the grilled meat you made, he hasn’t been able to eat anything else. Even if I use real fire to roast the meat into enticing black color, it just sniffs it and has no desire to eat.”

“Enticing black color, isn’t that just burnt?” Qin Feng chuckled as he listened.

“The young master is growing, how can it go without eating or drinking? There’s really no way. I thought of taking you back to make grilled meat again, hoping he would eat something.”

“So that’s the case,” Qin Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This little matter was indeed easy to handle.

Due to Aunt Mo’s incredible abilities in shrinking the distance, the journey that originally took nearly two hours was completed in the time it took for two incense sticks to burn.

Approaching the Black Mist Forest, the earth-shaking roar of beasts could be heard from a distance. Normally, at such times, birds and animals in the mountains and forests would be frightened and scattered.

But perhaps due to the frequent roars in recent days, they seemed indifferent.

Qin Feng even saw that the birds on the trunks on the outskirts of the Black Mist Forest only glanced at the forest and then resumed preening their feathers.

Hearing the roar, Aunt Mo sighed, grabbed Qin Feng’s shoulder, and used her shrinking technique once again.

The surroundings blurred for a moment, and when they regained their senses, the two of them had already entered the Black Mist Forest, and the thunderous roar echoed once more.

Is its hungry stomach making such frequent noises? Qin Feng’s face twitched. “Sister Mo, could it be that the little guy hasn’t eaten anything for almost a month since last time?”

“Alas, that’s right. The young master’s mother isn’t around, and its temperament has become more and more wilful. Its mouth is getting pickier, and I can’t control it.” Aunt Mo rubbed her forehead, looking worried.

Just then, the rustling sound of trees and grass came from ahead, and that adorable little white creature appeared in front of Qin Feng once again.
