"You insulted the first patriarch of our Luo family, you insulted our ancestors! Do you think I should react so strongly?" Luo Lin said angrily.
Night Wind sighed and said, "Alright, alright, put your sword away. No matter what, Zijing is one of us, and she has helped us a lot along the way. Be polite to her and don't scare her like that."
With Ye Feng smoothing things over, Rowling's expression improved somewhat.
Sheathing her longsword, Rowling complained, "Master, you spoil this brat way too much."
"She didn't mean any harm, she just has a loose tongue," Ye Feng said.
Then Ye Feng looked at Zi Jing and said earnestly, "To be honest, I really doubt how you've survived to this age. It's a miracle you haven't been beaten to death."
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Luo Qing, Luo Xiaotong, Chen He, and Jiang Wei all nodded in agreement.
It seems they all think so too.
Unexpectedly, Zijing showed a smug look, put her hands on her hips and said arrogantly, "That's because I'm a master at escaping! Even if someone really wants to kill me, they'll have to catch me and capture me first!"
"I'm really fed up with you." Rowling sighed, rubbing her forehead.
It's late at night.
Jiang Zhengzhong arranged excellent rooms for Ye Feng and his group.
After resting for a night, Ye Feng set off the next day with Zi Jing, Luo Qing, and Luo Xiaotong.
The Lightning Shuttle floated in the air. Once all three girls were on board, Ye Feng steered the Lightning Shuttle toward the capital.
"Master, you must come back soon!" Rowling waved and shouted from the ground.
"We will definitely return in three to five days!"
Night Wind waved his hand and said, and as soon as he finished speaking, the Lightning Shuttle accelerated again.
At this moment, Zijing was frantically running around on the Thunder Shuttle, like a country bumpkin visiting the city for the first time, looking around and touching everything with a face full of novelty.
Moreover, it wasn't just Zijing who was like this; Luo Qing was the same way.
"Patriarch, is this a spiritual artifact you crafted?" Luo Qing asked curiously.
“Of course,” Night Breeze nodded.
"But why is there no record of this magical artifact in our family history?" Luo Qing asked again.
Of course, there is no record of the Leiguangshuo in the Luo family's family history.
After all, the Lightning Shuttle was Ye Feng's magical weapon, not Luo Tong's!
Ye Feng chuckled and said, "This Thunder Shuttle isn't a particularly powerful magical artifact; it's just an auxiliary tool for traveling. There's nothing special about it. Besides, would you really tell everyone all your secrets and make everyone aware of how many magical artifacts you have and how many trump cards you possess?"
Luo Qing suddenly realized and nodded, saying, "That's true. If I had such a powerful spiritual artifact, I certainly wouldn't let outsiders know about it."
The young maid, Luo Xiaotong, was currently leaning over the railing, looking down.
This is the first time in Luo Xiaotong's life that she has left the ground and come to such a high altitude.
So she was a little scared, but at the same time she was very excited.
"Be careful, don't fall," Luo Qing warned.
"I understand, Miss... Miss, look, all those houses down there have become so small, they're not even as big as matchboxes!" Luo Xiaotong exclaimed.
Luo Qing chuckled and said, "That's what they call 'near objects appear larger, far objects appear smaller.'"
Zijing circled the Thunder Shuttle once and then punched it, clicking her tongue in amazement: "Now I'll have something to brag about when I go to the tavern!"
Luo Qing immediately glared at Zi Jing and said, "This is our family head's secret magical artifact. You can't tell anyone!"
"Hey, how am I supposed to brag now?" Zijing said in a hoarse voice.
"Can't you live without bragging?"
Night Wind said irritably, and slapped Zijing on the head.
"Don't stand outside, everyone come into the cabin. Even at the speed of the Lightning Shuttle, it will take about a day to reach the capital," Ye Feng said.
Luo Qing then took Luo Xiaotong's hand and headed towards the cabin of the Thunder Shuttle.
The Bauhinia was also swept into the cabin by the night wind.
At the same time, in the city lord's mansion of Jiangxia City.
Jiang Zhengzhong put down his pen and picked up the still-wet ink letter in front of him to read it.
This secret letter was one he had just written and intended to send to the capital immediately.
"Long live the Emperor! Your humble servant, Jiang Zhengzhong, the city lord of Jiangxia City in the Southern Territory, reports that three days ago, Luo Yun City was attacked by the Crimson-Tailed Beast, resulting in countless deaths and injuries among the city's inhabitants. The Luo family was also destroyed. Luo Lin and Luo Qing, along with over 1,300 refugees, have come to Jiangxia City to request assistance..."
"Your Majesty has sent people to investigate on-site, and it is indeed true that Luo Yun City was attacked by the Crimson-tailed Beasts. However, for some unknown reason, almost all the Crimson-tailed Beasts in Luo Yun City are dead, as if they were burned to ashes by some kind of raging fire..."
"Most importantly, the first patriarch of the Luo family seven hundred years ago—Ancestor Luo Tong—has broken through his seclusion!"
"Although I cannot determine whether he is the first Southern Territory King, Nanling King, from seven hundred years ago, he is indeed a Saint Realm expert. Before him, I am like an ant crawling at the foot of a high mountain..."
"Luo Tong has already taken Luo Qing and two guards to the capital in some kind of flying artifact, and they are expected to arrive in one or two days..."
"This matter is of great importance. Your Majesty, I humbly request that you take this matter seriously and not neglect it."
"Your Majesty, I wish you good health and a long life!"
Jiang Zhengzhong checked the letter several times to make sure there were no problems with the secret letter he had written himself. He then sealed it and called over a guard, saying, "Send this secret letter to the Spirit Light Tower immediately. Be quick, or it will be too late!"
"Yes, Master!"
The guard nodded emphatically, took the secret letter, and ran outside.
The wind was fierce high in the sky, but it could not enter the Lightning Shuttle because a very powerful true energy shield blocked the wind.
Therefore, even though the wind howled outside, the inside of the Lightning Shuttle was calm and quiet, without the slightest noise.
The smooth flight of the lightning shuttle didn't make Luo Qing and Zi Jing feel any turbulence, which is why the three little girls were already drowsy.
Suddenly, Zijing opened her eyes and looked at Luo Xiaotong.
To be precise, Zijing wasn't looking at Luo Xiaotong, but rather at the delicate little frying pan next to Luo Xiaotong.
"This girl actually brought a frying pan onto the ship..."
Zijing muttered to herself, her eyes darting around before she suddenly revealed a sly smile.
Then she tiptoed over and reached her slender hand toward the frying pan next to Luo Xiaotong.
She wanted to see how Luo Xiaotong, the dazed little maid, would react when she woke up and discovered that her beloved frying pan was missing.
"What are you doing?" Luo Qing opened her eyes and scolded in a low voice.
"Stop arguing. Aren't you curious about what will happen when the little maid finds out the frying pan is missing?" Zijing said with a grin.
