Shao Yunqing, the Saintess of Jiuyin Holy Land, has long been known as "the most beautiful woman in Dongzhou", and her fame has even spread throughout the entire Upper Domain.
Because of her outstanding qualifications, Shao Yunqing was accepted as the closed disciple by the Holy Lord as soon as she entered the Jiuyin Holy Land, and was made a saint in the second year.
It took her three years to reach the Xiantian stage, and five years to form the Golden Elixir. Now, at the age of nineteen, she has become a well-known genius in Dongzhou.
But few people know that before Shao Yunqing joined the Jiuyin Holy Land, he was saved once by Feng Shao.
Shao Yunqing's father died early. After her father's death, his clan members drove Shao Yunqing and her mother out of the Shao family. In desperation, Shao Yunqing's mother had to take Shao Yunqing to her mother's home 300 miles away.
But on the way, the mother and daughter encountered robbers from a nearby village.
The bodyguards that Shao Yunqing's mother hired with her last bit of wealth were all killed by the robbers. However, Shao Yunqing and her daughter were favored by the robbers because of their outstanding looks, and they wanted to take them back to the village.
Just when the mother and daughter were in despair, Feng Shao, who happened to be passing by, took action.
Of course, the robbers were no match for a cultivator like Feng Shao, and they were all killed by Feng Shao after just one encounter. Later, Feng Shao was a good man and escorted the mother and daughter all the way to Shao Yunqing's mother's home.
From that time on, Feng Shao's chivalrous image was engraved in Shao Yunqing's heart.
A few years later, Shao Yunqing was spotted by an elder of the Jiuyin Holy Land who passed by by chance and was taken to the Jiuyin Holy Land to practice. Shao Yunqing knew that this was a rare opportunity to change her fate, so she practiced very hard. While practicing, the figure that appeared most in her mind was Feng Shao.
But Feng Shao did not reveal his name when he rescued the two. Shao Yunqing also used the channels of Jiuyin Holy Land and after much inquiry, she finally found out that it was Feng Shao, the Holy Son of Taiwei Sect, who saved them from danger that day.
From then on, she began to secretly pay attention to Feng Shao.
It was just that Feng Shao would rescue some people more or less every time he went down the mountain, and many people had long forgotten about it. The only one who had a deep impression was Lin Xiaoran.
After all, Lin Xiaoran said at that time that she wanted to marry him.
Therefore, Feng Shao never thought that he would have any connection with the Saintess of the Nine Yin Holy Land. Therefore, when Shao Yunqing's visiting card was handed over, Feng Shao felt confused.
So Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran met Shao Yunqing in the reception room.
As soon as he saw Shao Yunqing, Lin Xiaoran's heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells, and he subconsciously hugged Feng Shao's arm tightly.
Her intuition told her that this woman was her lifelong enemy and she must be on guard against her!
When Shao Yunqing saw Feng Shao, he couldn't help showing joy on his face. But when he saw Lin Xiaoran hugging Feng Shao's arm tightly, his face suddenly froze.
After she laughed dryly twice, she said in a slightly awkward tone: "Mr. Feng, it's been many years since we last met. Do you still remember me?"
Feng Shao carefully looked at Shao Yunqing for a while, then shook his head: "Forgive me for my poor eyesight. I didn't recognize you, young lady."
Shao Yunqing laughed at herself and said, "You can't blame Master Feng for this. After all, I was only eleven years old back then. If Master Feng hadn't rescued me, I would have been tortured to death and we wouldn't have met today."
Lin Xiaoran frowned slightly. She quietly twisted Feng Shao's waist and whispered, "Brother Shao, how many people have you saved? Why is everyone you saved a beauty?"
Feng Shao felt wronged and explained through voice transmission: "I have saved men before! But who knows why only women appeared in front of me later?"
He vaguely felt that he might have been tricked by the laws of nature.
Lin Xiaoran was a girl after all, and her emotions were much more delicate than men. As soon as Shao Yunqing opened her mouth, Lin Xiaoran understood what she was thinking. She leaned against Feng Shao and said to Shao Yunqing with a smile: "Miss Shao, my husband has saved so many people that he can't even count them. Please don't be offended!"
Hearing Lin Xiaoran mention the word "husband", Feng Shao immediately felt something was wrong. After spending these days together, Feng Shao had understood Lin Xiaoran's temperament to a certain extent. At this time, she deliberately emphasized the relationship between the two, which obviously meant something else.
But why is this? Because of this stunning beauty in front of me?
While Feng Shao was thinking, Shao Yunqing glanced at Lin Xiaoran with displeasure. She also heard that Lin Xiaoran called Feng Shao "husband" on purpose for her to hear. As the Holy Maiden of Jiuyin Holy Land, her status was no lower than that of the Little Princess of Yunjian Pavilion, so she said bluntly: "Little sister, you can't say the word 'husband' casually! As far as I know, Master Feng is not married yet!"
Lin Xiaoran said with a fake smile: "This is our own family affair, so please don't worry about it, sister."
Shao Yunqing was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
I didn't expect that this girl, who is young, has such a sharp tongue.
Her eyes rolled, and she immediately came up with a plan, and said with a smile: "Little sister is so cute, and I am also happy to see you. Since you have a close relationship with Mr. Feng, I will give you a good thing!"
As he spoke, Shao Yunqing took out a bead, handed it to Lin Xiaoran, and said, "I came here in a hurry, so I didn't bring anything good. But this 'Mysterious Ice Bead' has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the essence, which is quite suitable for you, little sister. Please accept this small gift."
Lin Xiaoran took the black ice bead, but she felt a little strange. After thinking for a while, she finally understood what Shao Yunqing meant.
It turns out that Shao Yunqing didn't consider himself an outsider!
Lin Xiaoran was furious, but the other party had no problems with etiquette. Lin Xiaoran didn't know how to refute for a moment, so he could only swallow his anger in silence.
Feng Shao looked at the two women, with a row of question marks appearing on his head.
Why do I always feel like these two people just had a fight? And it seems that Lin Xiaoran was at a disadvantage?
Unfortunately, even if Feng Shao had a very smart mind, it was still difficult for him to understand women's thoughts.
After a series of back-and-forth exchanges, Lin Xiaoran reluctantly put on the attitude of a host and said to Shao Yunqing, "I wonder what Sister Shao has to do with my husband?"
At this moment, Lin Xiaoran has decided that no matter where she is in the future, she will use this name! She wants the whole world to know that Feng Shao is hers!
No one can grab it!
Shao Yunqing seemed not to have heard the hidden meaning in Lin Xiaoran's words. She just smiled faintly at Feng Shao and said, "A few months ago, when I was in Qingdi City, I met several senior brothers and sisters from Taiwei Sect. They said that they came down the mountain to look for Master Feng. Because I have some friendship with Master Feng, I invited these senior brothers and sisters to visit my Jiuyin Holy Land. In the past few days, I finally got news about Master Feng and learned that he was a guest in Yunjian Pavilion, so I took the liberty to come and visit him."
Upon hearing this, Feng Shao hurriedly asked, "Who are my fellow junior brothers and sisters who have been bothering the Nine Yin Holy Land?"
"I heard from them that they are all disciples of Senior Qin Zhao. There is also another senior sister who claims to be the third disciple of Senior Du Yuanxi."
Feng Shao was overjoyed, and he bowed to Shao Yunqing and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Shao, for taking in my junior brothers and sisters. I owe you a favor!"
Shao Yunqing said with a look of resentment: "Mr. Feng has saved my life before, isn't it too polite to say this?"
"Ah this..." Feng Shao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Because until now, he still couldn't remember when he had saved the other person. Although the other person's words were convincing, he didn't dare to take credit rashly.
What if someone makes a mistake? Wouldn't that make me an imposter?
Lin Xiaoran came out to smooth things over, and said to Shao Yunqing with a smile: "Sister Shao, you don't know that my husband has always been a man of integrity and courtesy, and he never speaks harshly to women other than me. A beautiful woman like you must have many admirers. My husband didn't want me to misunderstand, so he has distanced himself from you. Please don't blame me."
Lin Xiaoran said it nicely, but the implication seemed to be "It's not that my husband didn't recognize you, he just didn't want to recognize you because of me."
Shao Yunqing heard the hidden meaning in Lin Xiaoran's words and was so angry that she almost went berserk.
No, no, I must be reserved and not be angered by this little girl! It has been eight years since I last saw Mr. Feng. This is the first time we meet after eight years. I can't ruin my image in Mr. Feng's heart!
She took a deep breath and said softly to Lin Xiaoran, "Sister, you are too kind. Young Master Feng saved my life, so how could I be offended by such a small matter?"
Haha, you are all thousand-year-old foxes. Could it be that you just walked out of the Demon King’s Cave?
Feng Shao felt that something was not right between the two girls, but he had no idea what they were doing no matter how hard he tried. But he was not stupid, and he knew that he had to say something at this time. If he let them continue to fight, something unexpected would happen sooner or later.
So he quickly said, "Miss Shao, I wonder where my fellow apprentices are now?"
Shao Yunqing smiled and said, "Your junior brothers and sisters are now staying in Bianyun City. If you have time, you can go with me to meet them."
Feng Shao nodded: "In that case, please help Miss Shao."
——————————
Let me digress a little.
After yesterday's chapter update, many readers expressed their opinions. In general, most readers with opinions think that it is a bit out of place to engage in technology in a fantasy world. I will explain it here.
In the previous chapters, I hinted that the world is different from the world. The subtext is that the technology of the modern world cannot be used in the fantasy world. At most, it can only be used as a reference. However, Feng Shao had never done scientific research before, so naturally he could not understand this.
But the development of science and technology is itself a process of continuous trial and error. In the process of trial and error, we can find the right path. Feng Shao will also continue to try and error in the process of development until he finds a development path suitable for this world.
Some people think that guns and cannons cannot defeat immortals. I actually hold the same view. At least with the current technology, it is indeed impossible to defeat immortals. So what Feng Shao needs to do is to develop technological weapons with fantasy characteristics. It may not be guns and cannons, but it can be used as a reference.
In fact, this idea did not come out of nowhere. I had it a long time ago, even before I started to conceive this novel. Just like the steampunk industrial style that many people like, my idea is to create a "fantasy punk". It may sound a bit strange, but the novel is about giving full play to your imagination. I am not afraid of making a mistake, I am just afraid of not even daring to think about it.
However, I will also give full consideration to the opinions of readers. You can tell me what you think about "Fantasy Punk". If you think it is worth looking forward to, I will continue to write. If you think it is not good, I will consider re-drafting the outline. Although the subsequent plot may be a little mediocre, it will at least be more stable.
After Feng Shao gathers enough people, I will try to speed up the progress of the subsequent plot so that Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran's son Feng Lingyu can appear as soon as possible. In addition, some characters who have not yet appeared will also provide strong support for Feng Shao's future career.
I'll also give you a small hint: many stories will happen between Feng Lingyu and Feng Lingxue.
That's it, see you tomorrow!
