Chapter 352 To prepare for unforeseen circumstances
Feng Jiutian's expression changed when he saw Ling Sisi completely unharmed, and he frowned habitually, muttering, "This is impossible..."
Just now, the two deities were fighting. She was protected by Yan Shi'en, which is why she didn't feel the overwhelming pressure. However, the other servants in the courtyard were more or less injured because of this pressure.
Since Sisi's aura was always outside the Samsara Academy, she should have been affected, so how could she not have suffered any injuries?
Yan Shi'en concealed his aura as he bypassed those within the Endless Domain, but Ling Yang showed no restraint whatsoever, even becoming more brazen... This...
Seeing Feng Jiutian staring at her again, Ling Sisi broke out in a cold sweat. She swallowed hard and cautiously asked Feng Jiutian, "Miss Feng, have I done something wrong?"
However, one sentence was enough to dispel Feng Jiutian's doubts. This was definitely Ling Sisi herself, but how could she not be injured...?
Feng Jiutian wasn't trying to be unhappy about others' success; it was just that it was rather strange that Ling Sisi could remain unharmed under the pressure of two divine lords.
Could it be that Ling Yang also restrained his aura and bypassed the people in the mansion?
Feng Jiutian thought it was unlikely.
"you……"
After pondering for a moment, Feng Jiutian asked Ling Sisi, "Did you feel two powerful pressures just now?"
"Uh……"
Ling Si thought for a moment, a hint of doubt appearing on her youthful face: "Are you talking about when Butler Yan and Ling Yang were fighting just now?"
"Correct!"
"No, no." Ling Sisi shook her head, looking blank. "It's just that the wind hurts a little. It would be better if the wind were a little weaker."
"..."
"Cough cough."
Yan Shi'en coughed appropriately from the side, leaned closer to Feng Jiutian's ear, and said in a voice that Ling Sisi couldn't hear, "Ling Yang has some feelings for her, so naturally he won't touch her. Don't worry."
That makes sense now.
Feng Jiutian was speechless. Looking at Ling Yang, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would be interested in a girl like Ling Sisi... right?
Before this question could be voiced, Yan Shi'en had already seen through it and whispered in Feng Jiutian's ear, "Among the collateral bloodlines of the Ling family, only Ling Sisi has not been tormented. However, Ling Yang did not directly intervene but only interfered. The punishment given to Ling Sisi was only minor and insignificant. As for why, I have no idea."
Feng Jiutian's gaze remained unchanged as he looked at Ling Sisi, but a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, including regret or apprehension) had already begun to stir within him.
This sent another chill down Sisi's spine. She rubbed her arms and asked cautiously, "Miss Feng... why are you looking at me like that?"
"nothing."
Feng Jiutian withdrew her eyes as if nothing had happened, deciding to put aside the matter of cultivating the collateral bloodline of the Ling family for the time being.
If Ling Yang truly has feelings for Ling Sisi, he will definitely come back to find her again.
"Sisi, you should go back first."
Feng Jiutian stepped forward and patted Ling Sisi on the shoulder. Although Feng Jiutian's voice was as cold as ever, Ling Sisi could hear a deep meaning in it.
She said, "I'll come find you in a couple of days. You should go back and get some rest first."
"what?"
Ling Sisi was startled at first, then happily replied, "Okay, okay!" and quickly left the area of the Samsara Academy.
"Domain Lord, that's a good idea."
Yan Shi'en looked in the direction Ling Sisi had left, narrowed his eyes, and said, "It's just that I'm afraid Sisi will have to suffer..."
Others might not be able to detect it, but Yan Shi'en was a master at the God Venerable level, so he could naturally sense Feng Jiutian's spiritual energy fluctuations.
When Feng Jiutian patted Ling Sisi's shoulder, he subtly left behind an array. This array was connected to his divine sense, so that Feng Jiutian would immediately detect if Ling Sisi was in danger of losing her life or had any thoughts of escaping.
It should be noted that Yan Shi'en and Ling Yuan used this formation quite a lot back then, so they were very familiar with its aura.
"Isn't it said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder?"
Feng Jiutian dusted off his clothes and said calmly, "There is no doubt that Ling Yang will definitely come back, unless he doesn't like Ling Sisi. Ling Sisi is very naive, and I can tell from her tone and attitude that she actually hates Ling Yang. I don't know the specific reason, but as long as Ling Yang appears in front of her, she will feel repulsed."
“I once placed a restriction on Ling Sisi, which can protect her from death. The moment we received the divine sense shock, it was only a matter of a moment before we arrived there, so there is no need to worry too much about her safety.”
"Now, we just need to wait for Ling Sisi's reaction."
Yan Shi'en nodded in agreement and gave Feng Jiutian a thumbs-up: "Great plan!"
Feng Jiutian's method is still useful; as for when it will work, that depends on when Ling Yang comes to find Ling Sisi.
"Oh, by the way, I need to go to the valley. Lingyuan asked me to return something to the people there."
The flute inside the Void Spirit Cauldron was still lying there. Taking advantage of the fact that there wasn't much else to do, Feng Jiutian decided to go and return the flute first.
Upon hearing this, Yan Shi'en fell silent.
"that place……"
Yan Shi'en shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid you can't get in. It's been sealed off ever since Ling Yuan left, and it's very difficult to get close."
"It's alright." Feng Jiutian said calmly, "This is the last thing Ling Yuan asked me to do, and I have to get it done for him."
Feng Jiutian also left a trace of her divine sense with Yan Shien in case of emergency. As for Ling Sisi, Yan Shien also left a trace of his divine sense there. If anything happens, the two of them will rush to her side. This is also to ensure Ling Sisi's safety.
……
"Ouch——"
Once outside the city, Feng Jiutian released Lingling, who had been causing a ruckus inside the Void Spirit Cauldron. Lingling perched on the snow demon's shoulder, squealing with delight.
"Master, Lingling may be about to advance in rank."
The snow demon, teasing Lingling, said with a smile, "I wonder when Lingling will be able to transform into human form..."
"Transformation is not an easy task; it's still early."
Feng Jiutian stroked Lingling's fluffy head, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips. Since they still had a long journey ahead, Feng Jiutian released the two cooped-up contracted beasts to get some fresh air. After they rested, Feng Jiutian put the two contracted beasts back into the Void Spirit Cauldron and, following the route he remembered, quickly headed towards the valley where Ling Yuan had gone years ago.
However, upon reaching the mouth of the valley, Feng Jiutian could no longer see the village that Ling Yuan had once seen.
But she understood in an instant—
Enchantment.
Just like the barrier that concealed the existence of the small island in the secret realm, Feng Jiutian was also very familiar with the spiritual energy fluctuations of this barrier, which was set up by Ling Yuan.
The existence of this barrier conceals the presence of villages within the canyon; even an ordinary person would be unable to discover their existence.
Unless that person's cultivation level is higher than Ling Yuan's and they are able to see through the existence of the barrier, or they were someone who knew about the existence of the village back then.
