Seeing Jiao Jiao so excited, Rong Qi was happy for her too. After all, her uncle was the person who spent the most time with her, so naturally they were closer than most people.
"My uncle has been gone to the Heavenly Spirit Continent for several years, and he hasn't brought back a wife for us."
Upon hearing Rong Qi's words, Feng Qinghuang nodded in agreement. Her master was still young and incomparably handsome; he must have many suitors.
Rong Jin glanced at Rong Qi. This kid really knows how to bring up the most awkward topics. Does he think he can find them so easily? He hasn't had a single day of rest in the three years he's been away. Now that he finally has a few days of free time, he rushes back to see them, and they're even teasing him.
"What auntie or not, when do I, your uncle, have time for that?"
Rong Qi pouted.
Looking at her master, Feng Qinghuang suddenly realized that she hadn't asked him yet what he was doing on the Tianling Continent!
"Master, why did you leave in such a hurry? What urgent matter was it?"
Rong Jin sighed deeply upon hearing his youngest apprentice's question.
"I left in a hurry because I received a message from your master saying that he was dying and wanted to see me one last time. I couldn't delay, so I didn't have time to say goodbye to you. I wrote a letter and had someone deliver it to you before heading to the Heavenly Spirit Continent."
Feng Qinghuang nodded. So that's how it is. She had misunderstood her master before and even complained that he had left without saying goodbye. Anyone in that situation would probably have done the same. Although she hadn't heard her master mention her grandmaster many times, Feng Qinghuang knew that in her master's eyes, her grandmaster was just like his father.
"Master, what happened next?"
"Later, after your grandmaster passed away, I took over Tianling Academy. At first, some of the academy elders didn't approve of me, thinking I wasn't qualified to be the dean. But over the next year, I won them all over and finally secured the position. Later, your two senior brothers came to me, so I had them become instructors at the academy, which also helped them improve their own strength. It took another two years before I was able to train your eldest brother, and only then did your second senior brother and I have some free time."
When Feng Qinghuang heard her master summarize the past three years in just a few words, she knew it couldn't have been as easy as her master made it out to be. When her master went there, he had no status or background, just a disciple of the former dean. To become the dean was no easy feat.
But after hearing the last few sentences, I found it both funny and a little heartbreaking for my senior brother, who was always oppressed by his master wherever he went.
"Master, do my eldest and second senior brothers not have any romantic prospects in the Heavenly Spirit Continent? My two senior brothers are so outstanding and handsome, surely no one would be interested in them?"
Rong Jin perked up at the mention of this: "Little disciple, you know what, although the spiritual energy in Tianling Continent is abundant and people's cultivation levels are generally quite good, the people's looks are really not that great. However, some students in Tianling Academy are quite good-looking. Your two senior brothers probably both have someone in mind, but they each have their own preferences. They haven't won them over yet, but maybe next time they come back to see you, they'll bring you a senior sister-in-law."
Feng Qinghuang widened her eyes dramatically: "There really are! I knew it! My two senior brothers are both excellent people, how could no one like them? Hahaha, I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Hmph, you seem to know your senior brothers quite well."
Feng Qinghuang proudly raised her little neck: "That's right, don't you know whose senior brother he is?"
If you look closely, Feng Qinghuang's current appearance is exactly the same as Feng Muwan's arrogant expression just now.
"Master, how many days will you stay here? Will you stay at home?"
Rong Jin thought for a moment: "I originally wanted to go back to Wuji Mountain to stay these past few days, but my brother the emperor disagreed and made me stay in the palace. My master couldn't do anything about it, otherwise you, my uncle the emperor, would have come with me."
“Then Master can stay in the palace. Besides, the little house on Wuji Mountain hasn’t been lived in for years and there’s nothing prepared. If Master goes there, we’ll have to clean it up again. And if Master stays in the palace, I can visit Master every day.”
Rong Jin nodded: "Alright, alright, then from now on, Huang'er can carry Wanwan to see Master every day."
"Master, let's go to Mingyue Tower for lunch. I'll show you some of the new dishes from the past few years. I guarantee you'll have a full and satisfying meal."
Upon hearing about food, Feng Muwan, nestled in Rong Jin's arms, was no longer sleepy and began talking to her master about the dishes at Mingyue Tower.
After hearing this, Rong Jin laughed heartily and stood up while holding Feng Muwan.
"How about we order some food for Master Wanwan later? Master Wanwan believes that the food we order is the best."
"Okay, okay, Wanwan is the best at ordering food."
When Wanwan was happy, the little hair on her head kept bobbing.
Rong Qi and Feng Qinghuang followed behind them, walking towards the gate of the mansion.
