Seeing that Su Xueqing was already obsessed, Wu Hai's attempts to persuade her were to no avail.
He could only sigh helplessly, leave Su Xueqing's courtyard, and immediately send a message to Xiao Feng.
Wu Hai told Xiao Feng about Su Xueqing's current situation, warning him to be careful, as Su Xueqing might go after Zhao Yuwei.
“She is now showing signs of going astray, and I really don’t know how to advise her. Since you have already left, please don’t come back for now.”
"Perhaps with time, she will gradually come to understand that the hatred in her heart is just her own obsession."
Xiao Feng was somewhat surprised after receiving the telepathic message from Wu Hai.
He truly hadn't expected that killing Yuan Ruo would have such a significant impact on Su Xueqing.
But Xiao Feng did not regret it. Su Xueqing felt that Yuan Ruo should not have been killed, which proved that Su Xueqing approved of Yuan Ruo's actions.
If that's the case, Xiao Feng and Su Xueqing will eventually separate.
“Senior sister, there’s a relatively large city ahead called Fengying City. It’s a bit far from the Ming Cult, and the scenery here is beautiful. It’s surrounded by mountains and water, and the town is big enough. Why don’t we settle here for now?”
Xiao Feng and the others have been gone for some time now.
The two were moving quite fast, constantly searching for a city suitable for them to live in.
Finally, Xiao Feng found a city that met Zhao Yuwei's requirements.
"Wind Shadow City? That's a nice-sounding name. Let's stay here then."
After Xiao Feng accompanied Zhao Yuwei away, Zhao Yuwei initially felt guilty about Su Xueqing's actions.
But she doesn't know where she went wrong.
Was the mistake in not holding Yuan Ruo accountable?
Or was the mistake in not stopping Xiao Feng from killing Yuan Ruo to avenge himself?
Or perhaps the mistake was that she shouldn't have used the barrier to block herself, causing Yuan Ruo to suffer a backlash and die?
After much thought, Zhao Yuwei still felt that these mistakes were not her fault at all.
So Zhao Yuwei's smile gradually widened, and Xiao Feng was also satisfied to see Zhao Yuwei like this.
The two disguised themselves as ordinary mortals and entered Wind Shadow City.
Since we're planning to live here long-term, we'll definitely need to buy a small courtyard here.
“Let’s go to the auction house. I heard it’s like some of the shady auction houses back home. Let’s see if they have any deals for the small courtyard.”
Xiao Feng pulled Zhao Yuwei into a nearby, large-looking dental clinic.
Places like this not only sell servants and guards, but also naturally have some real estate resources.
At Xiao Feng's request, they actually found him a small courtyard in a good location, quiet but not lonely.
The smell of cooking fires wafting in from the street outside made Zhao Yuwei fall in love with the little courtyard at first sight.
After Xiao Feng noticed Zhao Yuwei's fondness for the place, the two decided to temporarily settle down there.
Perhaps they'll get tired of this place and move to another place in the future, and this little courtyard will remain as a memento.
“We have already paid the money, and this yard will belong to us from now on.”
Xiao Feng tossed the silver coins in his hand to the other party.
The other party readily produced the land deed.
After both parties completed the formalities, the small courtyard officially became the property of Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei.
Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei then lived an ordinary life like any other ordinary person.
The two completely concealed their spiritual power, appearing just like ordinary mortals.
Xiao Feng could sense that the oppressive aura emanating from Zhao Yuwei was slowly disappearing, replaced by genuine ease and happiness.
However, the happy and smooth days did not last long. One day when Xiao Feng went out to buy something, he discovered that there were many more cultivators in their small town.
Zhao Yuwei discovered this when she returned from shopping.
She asked Xiao Feng with some concern if something serious had happened nearby.
Can they no longer stay here?
"No, don't worry. I'll go out and inquire tomorrow. Maybe some treasure has been found nearby?"
Xiao Feng was unaware that the reason he used to comfort Zhao Yuwei had become the truth behind the recent influx of cultivators into Fengying City.
The next day, when Xiao Feng went to a pancake shop to buy pancakes as usual, he specifically asked the shopkeeper if he had noticed a significant increase in out-of-towners recently.
"Isn't that right? I heard them talking about treasure hunting and secret realms, but I couldn't understand what they were saying. However, I could tell they weren't ordinary people; they were cultivators, those immortals!"
Xiao Feng often went to this shop to buy pancakes, and the shopkeeper had long been familiar with Xiao Feng, so he couldn't help but chat with him.
“There’s a secret realm here. No wonder there are so many outsiders. They must all be here to search for treasure.” Xiao Feng pretended to be interested.
When the shopkeeper saw Xiao Feng like this, he overheard several cultivators discussing the secret realm. Coincidentally, a few cultivators had come to his shop that morning to eat pancakes and praised their taste.
"I heard them say that there is an entrance to this secret realm. The entrance is right outside our Wind Shadow City. This secret realm is the newest one. I don't know who named it the Wind Shadow Secret Realm."
"Tell me, it even has the same name as our city. I've heard that these cultivators can wipe out an entire city with a single sword strike. I hope they don't start fighting outside our city."
"How did the Wind Shadow Secret Realm suddenly appear outside the city? I wonder if we can still live a peaceful life here."
Upon hearing what the pancake vendor said, Xiao Feng inquired about the specifics.
They learned that the boss did not live in Fengying City before, but in another city with a secret realm nearby.
The appearance of a rare treasure in the secret realm sparked a conflict among the cultivators in their city.
Their city was naturally turned into a battlefield.
Very few people escaped from the entire city.
Their homes have been destroyed.
So when the pancake shop owner learned that there was also a secret realm near their Fengying City, he started thinking about whether he should move out of Fengying City as soon as possible.
Xiao Feng remembered what the pancake shop owner had said earlier.
All the monks involved were punished that time.
Moreover, because they harmed mortals by stealing treasures, everyone suffered tenfold or even a hundredfold backlash.
Most of them are already dead. The one or two who are still alive are being kept alive by various treasures from their sects, barely managing to absolve themselves of their sins.
But whether they die or not is only a matter of time.
Xiao Feng reassured the pancake shop owner's anxious heart and then went out to inquire about other places.
This territory, after all, belongs to the Ming Cult.
Xiao Feng guessed that the Ming Cult would also send people to the Wind Shadow Secret Realm this time.
I wonder if Wu Hai will send someone over to check on how they are doing these days?
Xiao Feng originally did not plan to enter the Wind Shadow Secret Realm, until he heard that the treasures that appeared in the Wind Shadow Secret Realm this time would be of great help to Zhao Yuwei's ice-attribute physique.
