The demons in Hebei are indeed easier to deal with, since they encompass the capital city and, in a sense, fall under the jurisdiction of the Ruo family.
If a family wants to manage the capital well, it naturally needs to take care of the surrounding areas as well.
So the wind chimes didn't take much effort.
But the northeastern border, which extends further up, is not so easy to cross...
The demons of the Northeast are known for their boldness and domineering nature!
Before leaving, Fengling returned to the capital to visit Heiyi.
Yang Yang was handed over to her because although the Hebei border had been unified, there was no agent for the time being.
Someone needs to keep an eye on it.
"Yang Yang, this is Black Wing from Eagle Eye's family on Xiaonan Street, an eighth-tier demon king."
"Black Wing, this is the chief manager of the Feng family's demonic power resources. During the Feng family's absence, you should cooperate well."
Black Wing smiled slightly, extended his hand to Yang Yang, and the two demons shook hands and nodded in acknowledgment.
In addition, Fengling also sent Heiyi to probe the intentions of the demon race in the south. When they returned from the northern expedition, they would naturally launch a southern expedition.
After leaving, Tianya whispered:
"Master, you've entrusted such an important position to Yang Yang, surely you already know his background?"
Feng Ling raised an eyebrow:
"You found out too?"
Sky Crow nodded:
“I asked him about it privately when you left.”
The wind chimes smiled slightly:
"Oh, you're asking me to make sure he's not lying, right? You're quite wary."
"Your subject dares not be negligent in the slightest."
Fengling nodded. As for Yang Yang's background, she already knew it when she read about it before.
The Feng family once unified the demon races of China, which naturally included the Shijiazhuang region.
At that time, Feng Xing personally led the team to Shijiazhuang. Yang Yang had only recently become a demon.
Yang Yang lost his parents at a young age and was raised by relatives. However, he knew that his relatives did not like him, so he moved out as soon as he started working. But he never forgot their kindness in raising him and would send them money every month from his salary.
My job is nothing more than being a corporate slave, enduring the disdain of my boss at work, and having a girlfriend, but nothing came of it.
An ordinary life, without any ups and downs, working overtime at the company one day, until suddenly dying...
He happened to be working overtime, and in that brightly lit office building, the resentment of countless people drove him to become a demon.
After becoming a member of the demon race, Yang Yang experienced unprecedented freedom.
He could fly into the sky, disappear underground, take whatever he wanted to eat without paying, steal whatever he wanted to wear without checking his balance, but this kind of life made him more and more decadent.
His perception changed with the arrival of the Feng family.
He realized that his kind of freedom was not freedom at all, so he asked Fengxing what freedom was.
Feng Xing smiled and replied to him:
There is no answer to this question. Everything is a matter of freedom, but you must have a moral compass in your heart. You can do as you please, but without overstepping the bounds.
"Do as you please, but do not overstep the bounds of propriety."
Yang Yang remembered these words. Feng Xing came to unify the demon realm, so Yang Yang naturally joined the Feng family. Unfortunately, he did not become a retainer of the Feng family. Feng Xing said that once he found the freedom he wanted, he could join the Feng family, and the Feng family would fulfill his dream.
So Yang Yang started doing good deeds to atone for his past mistakes. Gradually, he realized that this might be the freedom he wanted.
Unfortunately, Feng Xing was already dead by then, and the Feng family had fallen.
When Feng Ling led the Feng family to rise again, Yang Yang was the most excited, but... he was still observing.
He wasn't sure if the Feng family, now with a new head of the family, was still the same Feng family as before.
The Feng family is indeed not the same Feng family as before, but both Fengling and Fengxing pursue freedom, although the freedom they pursue may be different.
That's enough.
That's why Yang Yang wanted to join the Feng family. This time, Feng Ling directly allowed him to join the Feng family.
This can be considered fulfilling the promise her father made to Yang Yang: [Once you find the freedom you desire, you can join the Feng family, and the Feng family will help you achieve your dreams.]
Although Yang Yang was just a nobody to Tianya, and Tianya didn't even remember him.
But for Yang Yang, spanning more than twenty years, fulfilling his dream is the greatest thing he has ever done in his life.
Even Tianya couldn't help but sigh, and she wasn't as cold towards him as before. (This means she had given up the idea of killing him at any time.)
So when Fengling said she wanted to give Yang Yang such an important position, Tianya didn't say anything. Yang Yang was indeed the most suitable candidate.
Before heading to the northeast border, Fengling came to Ruo Qingyan's side, hugging and kissing her.
Ruo Qingyan sensed something was amiss...
"What are you doing? You don't want me to help you... cultivate again, do you?"
Feng Ling raised an eyebrow:
"Great idea!"
"I don't want to!"
"Haha~ Just kidding, I came here to say goodbye."
As the wind chime spoke, Ruo Qingyan was taken aback and looked at it with a puzzled expression:
"You...aren't you taking me with you?"
Fengling sensed a hint of grievance in the voice and quickly explained:
"I don't know how long this Northern Expedition will take... I can sense that the energy within you has already crossed the seventh-tier mid-stage and is advancing towards the Great Perfection. It won't be long before you break through to the eighth tier."
"After you reach the eighth level, I'm afraid that the time bomb inside you will suddenly explode. At that time, it will be safest for you to stay by your father's side."
Ruo Qingyan listened quietly without saying a word. She knew Fengling was worried about her, but she was also worried about Fengling...
I don't know how long this separation will last, or when we'll meet again. Thinking about this, I suddenly feel a little reluctant to part.
It's strange. Usually, when the wind chimes bother me, I can't wait for them to leave. Why am I reluctant to let them go now?
Fengling smiled and gave her another kiss, saying softly:
"I'll marry you as soon as you come back..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ruo Qingyan covered his mouth.
The wind chime looked at her in confusion. She pursed her lips and said helplessly:
"Don't set a flag..."
"Hahaha! Okay! As long as you understand~ Hahaha~"
"I don't understand! I didn't hear you..."
If Qingyan turned her head away, revealing her slightly flushed cheeks, the Saintess's adorable appearance made Fengling give her a couple more kisses.
"Then let's go, don't delay your business."
Ruo Qingyan got up, preparing to summon Xiao Hui.
But the wind chimes stopped her, coughing once:
"Didn't we agree that you would help me cultivate?"
"Keep dreaming!"
"Your husband is going on a northern expedition! There are countless monsters along the way, aren't you going to help me train?"
"hehe..."
In the end, the Holy Maiden couldn't resist Feng Ling's persistent pleading...
"Let me make this clear... if you dare to put anything on my face again, I'll..."
She didn't say anything, just smiled at the wind chime, who immediately felt her hair stand on end and a chill run down her spine.
