Feng Wu gritted her teeth. “She has to have something to do with my mum’s coma! ”

The antidote Feng Wu needed had to come from that girl.

The look on Lady Northern Feng’s face became even more serious, indicating that she would think about it carefully.

Just then, someone came from the imperial palace.

Gao, the emperor’s eunuch, let out a breath of relief when he saw Feng Wu.

“Miss Xiao Wu, you’re really alive. I was so scared.”

Master Gao was on Jun Linyuan’s side and had always been very nice to Feng wu.

Feng Wu smiled bitterly. “I think everyone in the imperial capital thinks that

I’ve died in the Northern Yan Kingdom. Does His Majesty think so as well?”

Master Gao smiled. “His Majesty was worried as well, but he said you had nine lives and was sure you would be alright. He then said…’

Feng Wu asked, “What else did His Majesty say?”

Master Gao smiled. “His Majesty also said that a scourge like you can live for a thousand years. You can’t possibly die. He even flogged those who spread rumors.”

Feng Wu said, “So, was Her Majesty the empress dowager over the moon?” Master Gao smiled bitterly and didn’t answer Feng Wu.

The empress dowager was so… Feng Wu didn’t want to talk to her anymore.

“Master Gao, may I ask why you’re here?” Feng Wu asked.

Master Gao said, “His Majesty wants to see you. Miss Wu, how long have you been here? When are you going to see His Majesty? He has a lot of questions for you.”

Feng Wu was about to say something when Gao cut her off. “Don’t say that you can’t get in without an audience. Have you forgotten about your waist plate? You can go anywhere in the Junwu Empire as if His Majesty is with you!” Feng Wu waved her hands with a wry smile. “I’m not your match. Let’s go to court now.”

“Sure!” Gao welcomed Feng Wu into the imperial palace without breaking a sweat.

“By the way, Lady Northern Feng,” Gao said before he left. “You’d better go back now. His Majesty has an edict.”

An edict?

Why now?

It didn’t seem to be bad news.

“His Majesty wants to welcome Miss Feng Wu back with a banquet in Taiji Hall. All officials above the fourth rank and their families have to come.”

Gao still remembered what His Majesty said.

“They were all saying that Xiao Wu was dead, and I’m going to summon all the gossipy women to the Taiji Hall. I want them to see that my daughter-in-law is still alive!”

When Master Gao said that, he chuckled, and so did Lady Northern Feng.

Feng Wu blushed and said, ‘What’s he talking about? It’s not official yet! Plus, the most important thing now is the poison in my mother’s system. Before she’s awake, I won’t think about anything else.”

Everyone became serious when Feng Wu said that.

Lady Northern Feng was the first to react. “Poison? You’re saying that your mother was poisoned, not terminally ill?”

Feng Wu shook her head but didn’t explain further.

She didn’t want to alert the others.

Feng Wu followed Master Gao into the imperial palace, while Lady Northern Feng went back home to prepare for the banquet.

In the study.

Emperor Wu looked at Feng Wu with tears welling up in his eyes. He was genuinely excited.

He stood on top of the stairs and stared at Feng Wu.

Those who didn’t know better would think that they were father and daughter.

“Your Majesty.”

As soon as Feng Wu bowed, Emperor Wu quickly walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder. “You’re really alive! I was right. How can anything happen to you? Hahaha!”

Emperor Wu immediately asked Feng Wu what happened on her journey. Feng Wu told him everything except for her sixth senior brother, which was confidential.

“Emperor Yan is so nice to you, and he’s punishing Princess Raoxi for you? Emperor Wu was amazed.

Feng Wu nodded. “When I came back, Emperor Yan had destroyed Princess Raoxi’s cultivation ability and banished her to a nunnery. I don’t think she’ll ever come out.”

Emperor Wu was surprised. “Why is he so nice to you?”

All of a sudden, Emperor Wu grew anxious. “He wants you as his daughter-in-law? He wants you to marry his son?!”

Feng Wu immediately smiled. “That’s not going to happen. Even his son won’t allow it.”

“Who else is after you?” Emperor Wu had sent someone to investigate, but they hadn’t come back yet.

Feng Wu counted with her fingers. “Apart from Princess Raoxi of Northern Yan, there’s also the Zuo family, the Flower Valley, the Firmament Palace, and the Dongsang Kingdom.”

Emperor Wu stared at Feng Wu in amazement. “How can you still be alive when so many of them are after you? That explains the news of your death. Other people would never have come back alive. You’re the only one who can survive this.

“However…”

Emperor Wu’s face darkened. “I’ve given the order, but these people still want to kill you. They’re offending the Junwu Empire! I’ll forgive them!”

“And about my mother,” Feng Wu said earnestly.

Her mother was the most beautiful woman in the empire, and even Emperor Wu considered her an untouchable goddess. Of course, he cared about her.Follow current s on ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

“Mum isn’t terminally ill. She was poisoned.”

“What? Poisoned?” Emperor Wu’s face went scarlet red. ‘Who? Who poisoned her?!”

Feng Wu shook her head. “She’s a barefoot girl with two top-level Spiritual

Saints protecting her. Your Majesty, have you seen anyone like her?”

As soon as she said that, she saw Emperor Wu frown as if he had remembered something bad.

“You’ve met her before?” Feng Wu asked affirmatively.

Emperor Wu didn’t answer explicitly. Instead, he pondered for a moment, then looked at Feng Wu and said seriously, “Don’t mess with that person. She’s not someone you can mess with. Listen to me, and don’t go to her.”

Feng Wu frowned. “If I can’t find her, my mother won’t wake up. How can I let that happen?”

Feng Wu took a few steps back and stared at Emperor Wu. “I’ve worked so hard to protect the people I care about. Now that my mother is lying in bed, you’re telling me that I can’t go to the person who poisoned her?

“Heh, she’s just a peak Spiritual Overlord. Are you sure she’s not someone I can’t mess with?” Feng Wu smirked.

If she was really mad, she would go to her senior brothers and her beautiful master! She wouldn’t be intimidated!

Emperor Wu looked at Feng Wu in resignation.

“She’s just a peak Spiritual Overlord?” Emperor Wu patted Feng Wu on the head. “Don’t get too excited. Yes, you’re a genius, but you haven’t been cultivating for long. You’re a junior Spiritual Overlord at most…’

“I’m at the peak of the Spiritual Overlord stage,” Feng Wu said calmly.

“A peak Spiritual Overlord? What did you just say?!” Emperor Wu’s eyes widened as he stared at Feng Wu.

Feng Wu said, “The peak of the Spiritual Overlord stage!”

Emperor Wu said, “Didn’t you have a chaotic battle with the Zuo and Hua families when you left the imperial capital? You were only a junior Spiritual

Overlord then. It’s only been three months, and you’re already a peak Spiritual Overlord! That can’t be!”

Emperor Wu looked from Feng Wu to Master Gao inquiringly.

Master Gao nodded at Emperor Wu.

To be able to stay by Emperor Wu’s side and protect him, one had to be a very capable cultivator.

Emperor Wu pointed at Feng Wu. “You… You’ve been making such rapid progress that you almost scared me!”

It took Emperor Wu a while to recover from his excitement. Staring at Feng

Wu, he said, “I don’t think Junjun made as much progress as you did, did he?”

Feng Wu was frustrated. “So what? I’m not a peak Spiritual Saint yet.”

If she was at the peak of the Spiritual Saint stage now, she wouldn’t need to worry about anything. All she needed to do was to find that barefoot girl and kill her. She didn’t need to worry about anything else. Emperor Wu rubbed Feng Wu’s forehead.

Feng Wu snapped. “What?”

Emperor Wu said, “You don’t have a fever. What are you talking about?” Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.

Seeing that Feng Wu was in a bad mood, Emperor Wu tried to appease her. “That’s doable. After all, they’ve come all the way here and didn’t bring many capable cultivators with them. When Junjun gets here… Wait, where’s Jun

Linyuan?”

Feng Wu wouldn’t tell anyone else, but Emperor Wu had nothing to hide, so she told him about Jun Linyuan’s recovery.

“He’s in seclusion? Repairing his body?” Emperor Wu’s eyes widened, and he looked shocked.

Feng Wu nodded. “We can’t disturb him this time. Otherwise, his body won’t be able to take it.”

Emperor Wu asked, “What will happen?”

Feng Wu glanced at Emperor Wu. “What do you think will happen if his body is destroyed?”

Emperor Wu frowned.

Feng Wu was confused. “Is there something that only he can do?”

Emperor Wu looked embarrassed. He didn’t tell Feng Wu what it was about but only waved at her. “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of it myself. Go back to your cultivation. The Junwu Empire will depend on the few of you when you reach the peak of the Spiritual Saint stage.”

Feng Wu could sense the fatigue in Emperor Wu’s voice as if something she didn’t know had happened.

Feng Wu suddenly recalled what Emperor Wu said earlier that the barefoot girl didn’t bring many capable cultivators with her. How were two peak Spiritual Saints not many?

“What does she want?” Feng Wu stared at Emperor Wu.. ‘Where did that barefoot girl come from? What does she want? Where is she now?”
