Chapter 116: Chapter 116 Feeng’er, How Do You Think Qing’er Is Doing?

Eventually, Yu Ying walked toward the door with worry.

"Young Master Feng, are you sure this is okay?" Long Chen muttered beside Shi Feng.

"Do I look like someone who boasts?" Shi Feng retorted, pointing a finger at the old man’s forehead. With that point, the old man, who had just been raging wildly, immediately settled down and slowly lay back down.

"Just wait for me to revive a Martial King Realm Expert for you to command," added Shi Feng.

In the Martial King Realm, if he only had a single expert at that level, the situation would change dramatically. "Young Master Feng, I believe in you," Long Chen said and then walked toward the door.

Soon, the only ones left in the room were Shi Feng and the half-dead, comatose old man.

Just as he stepped outside and closed the door, Long Chen saw that Yu Ying’s face was still full of concern. He tried to comfort her: "Don’t worry, you have to believe in Young Master Feng."

"Mhm," Yu Ying nodded slightly, though the worry on her face did not subside.

Just then, the door that Long Chen had just closed suddenly opened, and Shi Feng walked out from inside.

"Young Master Feng, what are you doing? Weren’t you going to treat him? Why are you out here again?" Long Chen quickly asked. Shi Feng had previously promised, with such certainty, to revive a Martial King Realm Expert for him.

"Could it be... could it be that my grandfather, he’s already... already..." Tears involuntarily streamed down Yu Ying’s face filled with sadness. Since childhood, she had been an orphan, fortunately taken in by her grandfather, or else...

"He’s already cured," Shi Feng stated indifferently.

"Cured? That quickly?" Long Chen exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes widening at Shi Feng’s words, almost as if it were a joke.

"Grandfather," Yu Ying, with tears streaming down her face like rain, pushed open the room’s door - "Ah!" A sudden scream rang out as she abruptly stopped her forward steps at the doorway.

Long Chen also turned his head and, looking through the open door towards the inside, was also startled.

"What is grandfather doing?" Yu Ying turned back, her face still wet with tears, and asked Shi Feng.

At that moment, the old man, who had just been in a frenzy, was now sitting cross-legged on the bed, his hands forming seals. His gray, straw-like hair fluttered without wind, and his complexion had significantly improved. The previously sickly appearance had vanished, and now his face was serious, even exuding an air of authority. His whole aura had undergone a drastic transformation.

Anyone with clear eyes could see that the disease was cured.

"This... He’s really cured!" Long Chen gasped deeply, then looked at Shi Feng with disbelief. In such a short time, this freak, how did he do it? Surely one cannot judge him by common sense. I almost forgot the bizarre feats of this freak again.

"He is absorbing Primordial Energy to recover his Cultivation Level. Just relying on his physical body to absorb the Primordial Energy of the world, it will take at least ten days to half a month," Shi Feng told Yu Ying, and then said to Long Chen: "Now is the time for you to show the demeanor of a Prince, eagerly seeking talents. Wealth and Primordial Stones are mere possessions."

"Someone come!" Long Chen called out in a low voice, and suddenly, a shadow appeared as if descending from the heavens, swiftly flashing down from above and landing on one knee in front of Long Chen.

Shi Feng noted that this shadow’s attire was the same as that of Shadow No.8 and No.9 he had seen before, all dressed in black with a black cloth covering their faces.

Shi Feng had long sensed that there were several people hidden around Long Chen, who were actually Long Chen’s true guards and bodyguards. Shi Feng even sensed several Martial King Realm auras nearby.

"Fetch me a hundred thousand Primordial Stones immediately," Long Chen ordered the shadow.

"At once," the shadow replied, followed by a quick flash as it vanished into thin air.

"Alright, you all get busy with the next things. My mother is at home waiting for me to come back to sleep," Shi Feng said indifferently to Long Chen and Yu Ying.

"Young Master Feng, thank you. You saved me and healed my grandfather. Yu Ying is eternally grateful and willing to work like an ox or horse for you," Yu Ying said to Shi Feng with a face full of gratitude.

"It’s okay, no need," Shi Feng waved his hand and replied, "Just keep my mother company and cheer her up when I’m not around." After saying that, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the small courtyard.

Long Chen kept his gaze fixed on the fading silhouette until it disappeared into the night, murmuring softly, "I wasn’t wrong about him, I really wasn’t wrong. Having this freak is just great!"

Then Long Chen turned back, looking at the gray-haired old man who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, recovering his cultivation level, his heart pounding with excitement, "A Martial King Realm Expert! With him, the situation is going to change drastically! I, Long Chen, will also have the support of a Martial King Powerhouse! Yee Wuxie! The Martial King of the night! The once formidable King of the South in the Yunlai Empire! There are still many soldiers in the military who were his old subordinates!"

Long Chen almost burst into tears of excitement, ready to jump up, but he was a prince and had to maintain decorum in front of others, so he had to feign calm, occasionally glancing at the old man with graying hair on the bed, making those unaware think he had a fondness for older men.

Shi Feng returned home, and as expected, his mother was still up.

"Mother, why haven’t you gone to sleep so late?" Shi Feng asked.

"Mother hasn’t seen you for so long, and right after dinner, you went out with Young Master Long. I wanted to wait for you to come back and talk with you," Bai Yue’e said, her face showing happiness mixed with a hint of complaint.

Then Bai Yue’e added, "Feeng’er, you’re not getting any younger. It’s time to think about getting married and starting a family. I’m looking forward to holding grandkids."

After hearing Bai Yue’e’s words, Shi Feng shook his head with a wry smile. He had never really thought about marriage and setting up a family. He replied perfunctorily to Bai Yue’e, "Mother, let’s talk about that some other time."

"Feeng’er, what do you think of Qing’er?" Bai Yue’e suddenly asked.

Shi Feng didn’t pay much attention to Bai Yue’e’s question and casually replied, "She’s quite good."

"Ah!" Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the direction of the doorway. Qing’er, dressed in pale green, stood frozen, holding a wooden basin in her hands. Seeing both Shi Feng and Bai Yue’e suddenly looking towards her, her face turned crimson with embarrassment and panic, stuttering, "I...I’m going to water the flowers." After saying this, Qing’er quickly turned and left with her head lowered.

"This girl, she said she was fetching water to wash my face, yet now she claims she’s going to water the plants," Bai Yue’e said, nonplussed.

"Yeah, that is indeed strange," Shi Feng echoed.

After hearing this, Bai Yue’e turned her gaze back to Shi Feng’s face and said with a smile, "Silly boy, can’t you see it? She has a crush on you."

"Nani!"
