Chapter 175 Unknown Feelings

Feng Tianning looked at them with a dark face and smiled helplessly.

She took out another stack of talismans from her sleeve and stuffed them all into the hands of Fu Ruxuan and the others.

"Tianning." Xuan Gou Chen looked at Feng Tianning with gratitude.

"I promise, I won't use it carelessly next time!" Pei Duyan, who had been silent all the time, came forward curiously and looked at the "ghostly talismans" in their hands.

“Will this really work?”

Fu Ruxuan also looked at these talismans in confusion and said doubtfully:

"This seems a little different from what I got from my family."

"Tianning, did you draw this?"

Without waiting for Feng Tianning to speak, Xuan Gou Chen took the lead and said:

"A Xuan and Qin Guan arrived late, so they don't know how powerful these spells are."

"Ever since Tianning left a while ago, I've relied on these talismans to survive several missions."

"Tianning's talismans are much stronger than those in our family. They can save your life at critical moments."

Fu Ruxuan and Qin Guan's eyes lit up instantly, and they carefully put the talisman into their pockets.

"Then do we not need to go look for Emperor Cang Xuan now?"

Feng Tianning did not answer, but asked:

"Is there anything left here by the Imperial Master?"

Fu Ruxuan and the others looked at her with a puzzled expression, and after a long while they spoke:

"We suspect that Emperor Cang Xuan has an improper relationship with this Imperial Preceptor."

"Huh?" Feng Tianning didn't react to their words for a moment.

"This Imperial Master is strange. He wears a mask all day long and dares not show his true face. He is also wrapped up tightly, even wearing gloves on his hands."

"I heard he has served three generations of monarchs. Logically, he should be an octogenarian."

"But the last time we secretly saw him take off his gloves, we found that his hands were completely wrinkle-free and even more tender than ours."

Pei Duyan looked at them doubtfully:

"Is he an immortal monster?"

"Then what does this have to do with Emperor Cang Xuan?"

Fu Ruxuan approached him mysteriously and whispered:

"On the day the Imperial Preceptor disappeared, Emperor Cang Xuan was furious and ordered all of the Imperial Preceptor's belongings to be moved to his bedroom."

"Later, we secretly went to investigate and heard that Emperor Cang Xuan actually slept with the same quilt that the Imperial Master had used, and even replaced the dragon bed with the Imperial Master's bed."

"He even collected the towels used by the Imperial Master and placed them in the center of his bedroom every day."

Xuan Gou Chen added with a gossipy look on his face:

"That's right. It's said that Emperor Cang Xuan was brought up by the Imperial Master. When everyone was not optimistic about him at the beginning, only the Imperial Master supported him. In the end, he made up his mind to launch a mutiny and won the throne."

Pei Duyan's face was full of shock, and even Feng Tianning was so shocked that he was speechless.

After a long while, Pei Duyan finally spoke haltingly:

"I remember... this Imperial Master is a man, right?"

Xuan Gou Chen nodded.

“That’s why it’s so exciting.”

Pei Duyan and Qin Guan looked at each other and understood Emperor Cang Xuan's preferences. They involuntarily took a few steps back and quietly covered themselves.

"Don't worry, he is definitely not interested in you." Fu Ruxuan looked at them with disgust.

Feng Tianning coughed lightly and finally recovered from what had just happened.

"The tracking talisman can only be used with the Imperial Master's things. It seems we need to go find Emperor Cang Xuan."

Pei Duyan said with some concern:

"But... judging from Emperor Cang Xuan's expression, I'm afraid he's unwilling to give us the Imperial Master's things."

"Yeah, they're having a quarrel. What's the point of us going over there?"

Feng Tianning tapped Fu Ruxuan's head helplessly.

"You don't want your souls anymore?"

"Now only the Imperial Master may have clues about the fake 'Feng Tianning'. We must find him."

"Besides, maybe they're just...brothers."

There was also a hint of uncertainty in Feng Tianning's voice.

Although she had never heard of such feelings, she still respected them.

"Okay, then let's go and test Emperor Cang Xuan's attitude first."

Feng Tianning nodded, and they walked towards the imperial study.

The eunuchs and palace maids they met along the way turned their backs and lowered their heads the moment they saw them, not daring to speak. They didn't even have a chance to ask anyone a few questions.

Until they reached the door of the imperial study, they were unable to get any gossip about Emperor Cang Xuan and the Imperial Master from the palace maids and eunuchs.

Eunuch Su saw them from afar and hurried in to pass on the message.

"Ladies and gentlemen, His Majesty invites you." Eunuch Su bowed to them respectfully.

Feng Tianning nodded coldly and walked straight in.

"My lords, what do you want from me?"

Feng Tianning sat directly on the seat next to him and asked directly:

"I wonder where the Imperial Master is?"

The smile on Emperor Cang Xuan's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"I wonder what you want from the Imperial Master?"

"We have come to the mortal world this time to find the one destined by heaven, and your country's national teacher is the one we are looking for."

"We're going to take him away now."

This was the excuse they had agreed on early in the morning. If they asked for the imperial teacher's things, Emperor Cang Xuan would probably refuse directly and would also doubt their identities.

So Feng Tianning decided to first make a request that Emperor Cang Xuan could not meet, that is, to take the national teacher away, and then ask for something after he refused, so that Emperor Cang Xuan would not be able to refuse again.

Initially, this destined person was fabricated in order to find Fu Ruxuan and the others, but now it can be used to find the national teacher.

"impossible!"

As expected, Emperor Cang Xuan almost subconsciously denied Feng Tianning's statement.

"The Imperial Master will never leave me. Even if you are immortals, don't think of taking him away."

Xuan Gou Chen and the others all had an expression of being hit, and their ambiguous eyes fell on Emperor Cang Xuan.

Perhaps realizing that he had lost his composure, Emperor Cang Xuan cleared his throat and said:

"Everyone, the Imperial Master has gone out to travel the world and won't be back for a while. Why don't you look for the other people who are destined to be with you?"

"No, he is the one we want." Feng Tianning refused sternly.

Emperor Cang Xuan's expression also turned cold, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes as he looked at them.

"It's impossible for me to hand over the Imperial Master."

"I know you are immortals, but if I use the whole country's strength to protect the Imperial Master, is it possible that you will snatch him away alive?"

At this moment, Feng Tianning was really curious about who this imperial teacher was. He could actually make Emperor Cang Xuan, who valued the throne more than his life, ignore him like this.

Is their relationship really that deep?

Feng Tianning coughed lightly, not forgetting his purpose.

"In that case, then give us one of the Imperial Master's personal belongings, and we'll take him back with us."

Emperor Cang Xuan's expression immediately softened a lot. After hesitating for a moment, he picked up a jade pendant from the table and handed it to Feng Tianning.
