Godly Empress Doctor - Chapter 1071
Chapter 1071: The Girl From Frozen Forest (3)
“Good.” Feng Wu gathered all the spare medicinal pills she had and was able to raise 100,000 top-grade spiritual stones’ worth. She then handed them over.
“It’ll be done in seven days,” the voice said quietly before Feng Wu left.
Feng Wu smiled a little. It was expensive, but if Zuo Ming knew that his family was being hunted by the Flying Guillotine as well, would he put a price on other people’s heads so casually after this?
It was the break of dawn when Feng Wu was ready to go home.
The sky had just started to brighten up, though it was still dim outside.
Along the silent street, a figure as nimble as a cat jumped from roof to roof at top speed.
Right at that moment!
All of a sudden!
Feng Wu felt a streak of spiritual essence sweep over her.
That was —
Feng Wu looked down to find a carriage racing along the street. She had no idea who the passenger was, but that streak of spiritual essence definitely came from inside the carriage.
Feng Wu stared at the carriage.
It was lit up from inside by two lanterns.
They had the insignia of Northern Feng Mansion on them.
Could it be Lady Northern Feng, her godmother? Feng Wu wondered if she should go down and say hello.
However, it was Feng Xun inside, not Lady Northern Feng.
Feng Xun had just gotten back from the suburbs, where Master Linghu lived. He was covered with sweat after a long night of training, and was dozing off in the carriage.
He wanted to go back home more than anything else, so that he could lie down and sleep.
The training was a rough stretching session which was so intense that all his tendons were cramping, and he was almost crying at the pain.
It just so happened that Feng Xun had a nose sharper than a dog’s. He was resting with his eyes closed when he caught a faint scent.
A scent?
It was so familiar.
Nothing would have happened if Feng Xun had let it pass. That way, Feng Wu would be able to go home as planned and so would Feng Xun.
Unfortunately —
Something dawned on Feng Xun.
And he caught that idea in a fleeting moment.
“Ah!” Feng Xun cried out. “It’s her! Her!”
Then, the guards of the mansion watched as their young lord rushed out of the carriage, rambling words that no one else understood.
Moreover, he jumped onto the roof right away!
“My lord!”
The guards were baffled when their young lord ran away. They followed him immediately.
Feng Wu looked over her shoulder to find Feng Xun behind her.
She smiled and was about to greet him when Feng Xun ran toward her, roaring, “You ugly girl! I finally found you! Stop right there!”
Feng Xun’s words were a thunderclap in Feng Wu’s ears.
Ugly girl?
Feng Wu saw the light right away.
She wasn’t dressed like the ugly girl from the forest of Northern Border City before, but she had the same sallow skin, which was created by the same cream.
“Ugly, stop! I know the smell of the cream you used to cover your face! It’s you! Stop running!”
Feng Wu knew what this was about before Feng Xun finished talking.
The cream had given her away!
And Feng Xun…
The last thing Feng Wu would do right now was say hello to him. She would blow her own cover.
She turned and started running right away.
“You’re running away?! How dare you!” Feng Xun yelled angrily. He couldn’t believe this was happening.
Feng Xun recalled everything that had happened in Frozen Forest of Northern Border City.
He had been so nice to that girl.
