Soon after, the magpie also awoke from its meditation.
Seeing that Ji Fengyao had vomited blood, Xique quickly stepped forward and, together with Bailu, helped Ji Fengyao up on either side, anxiously asking, "Miss, what happened to you? Are you injured somewhere?"
Ji Fengyao felt her blood and qi surging within her body:
Fortunately, she was a great cultivator in her previous life who had achieved the Great Completion stage and had rich cultivation experience.
Despite the fierce backlash from the spiritual energy within her body, she calmed and suppressed the turbulent spiritual energy the moment she woke up.
Although some of her meridians were damaged, the reverse flow of spiritual energy had invisibly expanded them once again. Now, the resilience and breadth of her meridians had reached an unbelievable level, which could be considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
"Do you know that if I hadn't been a disciple of an immortal, I would have lost my life here today because of you!"
"Do you know that some people may never enter the state of emptiness even once in their entire lives? In the cultivation world, hindering someone's cultivation is like cutting off their escape route; such an act is an irreconcilable enmity!"
Ji Fengyao looked coldly at Lin Shuang, using such a stern tone for the first time.
Lin Shuang collapsed to the ground, terrified, her face deathly pale: "Your Highness, as you know, this servant is ignorant and knows nothing about cultivation! This servant saw strange phenomena occurring in the night sky and courtyard, and Your Highness, Xi Que, and Sister Bai Lu were all asleep. Fearing that something might happen to Your Highness, I unintentionally disturbed Your Highness's cultivation. This servant did not do it on purpose!"
"If that weren't the case, you would already be dead!" Ji Fengyao's voice was cold, and her heart was even colder.
Although Lin Shuang's words made sense, given her intelligence, it was impossible for her to be reckless without intention.
Perhaps Lin Shuang didn't intend to kill her, but it was obvious that Lin Shuang had ulterior motives!
The magpie clenched its fists and glared hatefully at Lin Shuang.
She still remembered what Ji Fengyao had told her, that Lin Shuang might have changed her mind, but at this moment, she still hoped that Lin Shuang was not doing it on purpose.
Bai Lu was also heartbroken and said, "Sister Lin Shuang, why were you so reckless this time? The Princess treats us like family. If you harm the Princess, can you live with yourself?"
"I really didn't mean it!" Lin Shuang roared as she knelt on the ground, gritting her teeth and pressing her lips tightly together, tears of defiance streaming down her face, trying to convince herself of her own words.
Ji Fengyao had no time to be surprised or secretly pleased that her cultivation had reached the legendary realm.
Lin Shuang's performance greatly disappointed her:
If Lin Shuang were to weep and repent, perhaps she could still believe that this was an unintentional mistake on Lin Shuang's part;
But this girl's cleverness backfired; her stubbornness and strong will only made things worse, revealing her ambition to never be subservient to anyone.
She really spoiled this girl.
She forgot the ancient saying, "A small favor is appreciated, but a large one breeds resentment."
She forgot that some people are inherently greedy and insatiable; the more she gives, the less satisfied the other person becomes.
In her first life, Ji Fengyao was an abandoned orphan who relied on her master for survival from a young age. Therefore, in each of her later lives, her family was an indispensable part of her life.
She treated these three girls like family.
But now that Lin Shuang has distanced herself from her, her heart feels as if it has been stabbed!
Only those who have experienced it firsthand can understand how heartbroken she truly is.
Seeing that Ji Fengyao was silent with her eyes closed, Xi Que assumed that she was in great pain due to her injuries. With tears in her eyes, she asked, "Miss, are you suffering from internal injuries? It hurts a lot. Let me give you some spiritual energy to help you recover."
"Your Highness, if you are in pain, please don't bear it. My cultivation has inexplicably improved just now, and I can also transfer spiritual energy to you," Bai Lu said, her small hands haphazardly touching Ji Fengyao's body.
