The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 279: Tonight the Moon is Truly Beautiful

Su Jingzhen didn’t want to enter the Treasure Pavilion to choose treasures, and Feng Xuan didn’t force him.

This opportunity was, as Su Jingzhen had expected, saved for him.

Feng Xuan even stated that no matter when Su Jingzhen needed it, he could enter the Treasure Pavilion at any time.

And unlike Xuening, Ye Zhiqiu and the others, Su Jingzhen could enter the Feng family’s Treasure Pavilion without any limitations.

He could take anything he liked.

This was the greatest gratitude Feng Xuan could offer Su Jingzhen.

But regarding Feng Qingya and Su Jingzhen’s matter, he said that as long as the two of them came to an understanding, he would give his blessings at any time.

When Su Jingzhen and Feng Qingya came out of the Treasure Pavilion, night had already fallen.

Tonight, the stars were shining brightly.

Walking on the stone path of the Feng family’s manor, the two of them were unusually silent tonight.

Some things, when not brought out into the open, allowed them to get along pleasantly and peacefully.

But now, after Feng Xuan’s intervention, the atmosphere between them seemed to have become a little more ambiguous.

However, Su Jingzhen’s heart was calm amidst this silence.

Soon, the two returned to the previously secluded courtyard.

Before the Qingya Mansion was built, Feng Qingya didn’t intend to move to other more luxurious courtyards.

Back in the courtyard, Su Jingzhen looked up at the stars and the bright moon in the sky.

His gaze then suddenly fell on Feng Qingya beside him.

Smiling, he said, “Tonight the moon is truly beautiful.”

Hearing this, Feng Qingya also looked up at the moon and silently nodded.

“The wind is gentle too. Master Su, get some rest. Tomorrow, you might meet some remarkable figures from the Qingzhou region.”

After speaking, Feng Qingya returned to her room.

A smile curved Su Jingzhen’s lips. Although Feng Qingya didn’t explicitly say it, some things were evident in the generated empathy points.

Su Jingzhen wasn’t in a hurry. He preferred these things to develop naturally.

After returning to his room, he began practicing the *Python Scales Power*.

However, he only practiced it three times before stopping.

After his mood had completely calmed down, he fell into a deep sleep.

Even though most of the forces in Yunmeng City were destined to be sleepless tonight, it didn’t really concern Su Jingzhen.

No one would choose to take such a risk at this juncture.

…

However, above Yunmeng City, suspended dozens of islands, Tuoba Junlin stood on a higher island, overlooking the entire city below.

He looked calm, neither happy nor sad.

At this moment, the black-robed elder behind him walked up.

“Young Master, this time we still underestimated Feng Xuan. The Yunmeng City matter has come to an end, perhaps we can return to the Holy City.”

The black-robed elder’s tone was calm, but with a hint of regret.

Hearing this, Tuoba Junlin’s expression remained unchanged.

He asked again, “After returning to the Holy City, if the Patriarch personally comes to the Feng family to propose marriage, what do you think the chances of success would be?”

Tuoba Junlin’s words startled the black-robed elder beside him.

He hadn’t expected Tuoba Junlin to still remember Feng Qingya.

He had always thought that Feng Qingya was nothing more than a tool to Tuoba Junlin or the entire Tuoba family.

A tool to swallow the Feng family.

But it seemed that things weren’t as simple as he imagined.

After a moment of thought, the black-robed elder also said seriously, “With Feng Xuan’s ability, he must have discovered our contact with Feng Baozhao’s faction during this time.

Feng Baozhao’s faction is completely unreliable now, and the Feng family’s perception of the Tuoba family should be at its worst. If we directly propose marriage like this, the success rate would be zero.”

Hearing this, Tuoba Junlin nodded silently.

“In that case, let’s go back. But this matter is not over yet.

By the way, have you found out the background of those two genius alchemists? The Feng family’s turnaround this time must have something to do with them.”

Tuoba Junlin’s words made the black-robed elder nod again.

“We’ve found out. The one named Su Jingzhen is the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch.

But before becoming the Evil Moon Sect’s Grand Deacon, he seemed to be just the lowest of the low in Linjiang City.

His rise is a bit strange, or perhaps he has been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger all along, only recently showing his true strength.”

He paused, then added, “As for the girl named Xuening, she seems to be the descendant of the famous Dantai family of Qingzhou. Dantai Mingjing, from back then, was also a legendary figure in Qingzhou.”

Hearing this, Tuoba Junlin finally frowned. “So our Tuoba family can’t afford to offend these two people?”

The black-robed elder nodded again. “Since Su Jingzhen is from the Evil Moon Sect, our Tuoba family has no reason to provoke the Evil Moon Sect. As for the descendant of the Dantai family, she shouldn’t come to our Tuoba family.”

Tuoba Junlin nodded silently.

As if sighing, he said, “Alright, this trip was really a waste.

But it doesn’t matter, our stage isn’t here in Yunmeng City anyway. Whether it’s Su Jingzhen or Feng Qingya, their stage in the future won’t be limited to this small Yunmeng City.

I’m looking forward to meeting them in the next region.”

For Tuoba Junlin, he was only slightly disappointed about this matter, but he didn’t feel any resentment.

Having reached his current position, he had long understood that in the cultivation world, things wouldn’t always go as one wished.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end, his Tuoba family hadn’t suffered any substantial losses in this matter.

The only loss was Tuoba Junlin’s reputation.

…

The night passed without incident.

The next morning.

As soon as Su Jingzhen opened his eyes, the familiar golden characters appeared before him.

[Time left until the host’s Dantian shatters: 473 days!]

[Daily fixed points: Shuang Jiang: 15, Zhang Xiu: 4, Feng Qingya: 6, Luo Yuebai: 4, Dantai Xuening: 6]

[Remaining usable points: 446]

In just two days, his points would be able to break through five hundred.

Then he would be able to verify what was wrong with his Dantian.

He had been looking forward to this moment immensely.

As usual, after practicing the *Python Scales Power* in his room a few times, Su Jingzhen pushed open the door.

Feng Qingya was already waiting for him in the courtyard.

As for Xuening and the others, they were probably still in the Treasure Pavilion, as they hadn’t come out yet.

After all, they only had one chance, and the Feng family’s Treasure Pavilion was full of treasures, so they naturally had to choose carefully.

“Master Su, good morning.”

Feng Qingya was wearing a black long dress today, which, although it couldn’t hide her proud figure, was incredibly elegant.

A familiar seductive smile still played on her lips.

She added, “Today will probably be another exciting day. Today is the third day of the deadline set by the Ancestor. Those forces have already been sitting on pins and needles, and some heavyweight figures are likely to arrive.”

…

Deep within the Feng family’s manor, there was a pagoda built of black stone.

This pagoda was just an underground entrance.

It was the location of the Feng family’s prison, where they kept their enemies over the years, as well as clan members who had committed crimes but were not deserving of death.

At this moment, hundreds of people, bound and gagged, were being escorted out of the prison continuously.

And these people, under the escort of Feng family disciples, were all to be sent to the Wind Bell Square where the Alchemist Conference had been held two days earlier.

“What is the Feng family trying to do? Are they going to redeem people in public at Wind Bell Square?”

“My goodness, they’re going to establish their dominance in front of the entire Yunmeng City!”

“It’s getting more interesting. By redeeming people in public, these forces will be humiliated.”

“Of course, this seems to be the absolute deterrence the Feng family wants.

And in public, if they agree to certain conditions, these forces won’t be able to go back on their word.”

“There is no way around it, because the Feng family now has a cultivator who is at least in the late stage of the Soul Formation Realm.

And the three major forces whose people are being detained today are quite important, they have to be redeemed.”

“…”

Su Jingzhen, under Feng Qingya’s lead, also quickly arrived at Wind Bell Square.

Back in this familiar place, it was still crowded.

Su Jingzhen looked a little dumbfounded.

He still thought that even if the various forces wanted to redeem their people today, they would choose to do so within the Feng family’s manor.

He never expected it to be here.

The morning sun shone on Wind Bell Square, making the Yunmeng Goddess statue even more sacred.

The twelve white jade pillars on both sides of the goddess statue were also shining brightly.

Many people had been sitting here for years, hoping to comprehend the secrets hidden in the Yunmeng Goddess statue.

“It’s still early, it seems that the Grand Elder and the others haven’s sent the people from the major forces yet.

Master Su, would you like to go down to the Goddess statue and comprehend it?

I came here before just for alchemy, and I haven’t had a chance to show you the wonders of this place.

Who knows, maybe you, Master Su, are destined to be connected to the Yunmeng Goddess. If you can comprehend something, it would be incredibly beneficial.”

When Feng Qingya saw that Su Jingzhen seemed quite interested in the Yunmeng Goddess statue, she couldn’t help but say so.

Anyone who reaches Yunmeng City will basically come to the Yunmeng Goddess statue to try their luck.

There are also precedents in history of people who have comprehended something here and then soared to great heights.

“Okay!”

Su Jingzhen naturally had no objections to this proposal.

As they spoke, the two walked to the bottom of the Yunmeng Goddess statue at the edge of Wind Bell Square.

Along the way, the two of them naturally focused their attention.

As they walked past the white jade pillars, the inscriptions carved on them seemed to possess a powerful force.

It felt like they were strongly attracting Su Jingzhen.

However, when he looked up, he couldn’t sense anything.

Except for the fact that the goddess statue was carved perfectly, and being here made him feel very comfortable.

He felt no other emotions.

Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but wryly smile.

In his past life, when he read those novels, those transmigrators who encountered such secrets and opportunities for cultivation, didn’t they all instantly have a moment of enlightenment?

Why was his script different?

All the mysteries hidden here couldn’t even resonate with him.
