Chapter 514: Chapter 514 Emperor Nine Nether Notices a Striking Resemblance to You

Shi Feng cradled Little Bai into the cave, placed him beside the campfire, then took out clean white cloths and disinfectant from the storage ring to clean his wounds.

After cleaning the wounds, Shi Feng took out white gauze bandages to wrap up Little Bai’s injuries.

"This, Little Shi, do you need help?" Jin Mo offered to help Shi Feng as he bandaged Little Bai.

Shi Feng thought about the girl’s previous clumsy bandaging skills and shook his head, saying, "No need. I’m tough enough to withstand your inexperienced bandaging, but Little Bai might not be. I think it’s best to do it properly and let Little Bai live a few more years."

"Uh..." After hearing Shi Feng’s words, Jin Mo gave a soft "uh." Then she murmured weakly and quietly, "Actually, that was my first time bandaging. For a first time, it wasn’t too bad."

Jin Mo’s voice was low, but Shi Feng heard it all and just smiled without saying anything to hurt her feelings.

Having finished bandaging Little Bai, who had fallen asleep without realizing it, Shi Feng stopped his work, sensed Little Bai’s breathing, which was fairly stable. Only then did he feel relieved that there was likely nothing seriously wrong.

"Little Bai has closed his eyes; is he asleep or what?" Jin Mo saw Shi Feng finish bandaging Little Bai and noticed that he had closed his eyes. She asked Shi Feng with a tone full of concern.

"Don’t worry, he won’t die," Shi Feng said.

"Oh!" After hearing Shi Feng’s words, Jin Mo also felt reassured and nodded, then asked, "How did you and Little Bai meet? He’s so loyal to you; did you raise him from a young age?"

"Oh! So loyal!" Hearing Jin Mo’s words, Shi Feng pondered. This white tiger, which he hadn’t noticed before, now seemed genuinely loyal to him. To protect him, knowing that the seventh-stage Venerate Middle Stage black panther was more powerful, it had still chosen to fight the panther. It fought until it was injured, narrowly escaping death.

"If I told you that I’ve known him for only a few months, and then I killed his former master, tortured him a bit, and made him recognize me as his master and became my mount, would you believe me?" Shi Feng said.

Jin Mo didn’t respond to whether she believed Shi Feng or not but looked at him with disdain, saying, "If that were true, then you would be really awful. Despite his past grievances, Little Bai treats you so well! You really can’t compare to even one-tenth of Little Bai."

"Uh... One-tenth of Little Bai?" After hearing Jin Mo’s words, Shi Feng looked down at the peacefully sleeping Little Bai and said, "Are you saying I’m worse than an animal? And not even one-tenth as good?"

"I... I didn’t mean that," Jin Mo said, "I was just judging by how you treat Little Bai. Besides, Little Bai isn’t just an animal, brave Little Bai is our friend." As Jin Mo called Little Bai her friend, she reached out and gently stroked his white fur.

"Also, you’re actually not that bad a person, especially, you’re quite nice to me." As she said the last part, Jin Mo’s cheeks turned slightly red, she averted her gaze, feeling a bit too shy to look at Shi Feng, and slightly lowered her head to watch the burning flames of the campfire.

Gazing at Jin Mo, who suddenly seemed a bit shy, Shi Feng looked at her and said, "Girl, it’s time you told me about your identity, don’t you think? You’ve cultivated to the Nine-star Martial Sect Realm but have no combat experience. Your Martial Arts Cultivation must have been piled up through vast resources.

Furthermore, judging by your appearance, you seem to be a flower from a greenhouse, making your first endeavors into the outside world, likely having run away from home. And the most suspicious thing is that the Nine-star Martial Venerable named Zi Xiao is actually expending his energy to capture you."

"This... this..." Jin Mo said, looking down at the campfire after hearing Shi Feng ask about her identity once again. She became somewhat hesitant but then lifted her head, looked at Shi Feng anew, and spoke, "Actually, Zi Xiao isn’t capturing me, he is following my Father Emperor’s orders to take me back."

"Following your Father Emperor’s orders? Are you a Princess of the Tianlan Empire?" Shi Feng asked.

"Yes," facing Shi Feng, Jin Mo honestly nodded and said, "If I had known that because of Zi Xiao’s pursuit, you and Little Bai would suffer such severe injuries, I would have just gone back to the Imperial Palace with Zi Xiao. I’ve dragged you both into this."

After hearing Jin Mo’s words, Shi Feng said, "Rumor has it that the Emperor of the Tianlan Empire set up a tournament to find a suitor and Prince Consort for his Princess Linglong. The princess is said to possess beauty that could topple cities and states, a rarely seen great beauty—that must be you, the Princess?"

"I am Princess Linglong!" Jin Mo nodded in acknowledgment and then said, "Because my Father Emperor wanted to find me a Prince Consort in this way, I ran away from home. I don’t want to marry someone I don’t like, I don’t want to spend my whole life with someone I don’t like. That way, I would never be happy."

"Do you know that your beauty has already attracted countless strong suitors to the Tianlan Empire? I’ve even heard that this time, the famous Emperor Xiaoyao might come to the Eastern Domain because of your beauty!" Shi Feng said with a laugh.

"So what if it’s Emperor Xiaoyao! I heard he’s a philanderer; I don’t like him.

I won’t like someone I don’t fancy, even if it’s Emperor Nine Nether, the former number one powerhouse of the Tianheng Continent, who looked down upon the world, resurrected. If it’s someone I like, even if he’s a beggar, I’d be willing to be with him," Jin Mo said with a face full of seriousness and determination.

Listening to her, Shi Feng couldn’t help but bitterly smile internally—it was funny how people still used his name as a comparison, despite him having been dead for so many years.

However, hearing this girl’s words, Shi Feng felt touched. From Jin Mo, he saw a spirit of pursuing what she wanted, the pursuit of freedom, charging forward fearlessly, regardless of the consequences.

That did somewhat resemble himself, except that what he pursued in his life was the ultimate in Martial Arts!

"If Emperor Nine Nether really did come back to life and heard what you said, I wonder if the proud Emperor would come and try to pursue you," Shi Feng joked with Jin Mo.

With a "Pfft," upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, the previously serious Jin Mo suddenly let out a laugh, sweeping away her somber mood, and smiling at Shi Feng said, "If the Emperor really did come back to life, perhaps I would consider it. I’ve seen a portrait of the Emperor before; actually, he was quite handsome and didn’t look as fierce as the rumors suggest!"

"However..." Jin Mo locked eyes with Shi Feng and said, then she suddenly paused, saying "however," as if she had realized something. She continued speaking to Shi Feng, "I hadn’t paid attention before, but now that I think about it, the expression and spirit in that portrait of the Emperor seem quite similar to you."
