Godly Empress Doctor - Chapter 1303
Chapter 1303: Untitled
There weren’t many guards in the Rong manor, and at this late hour, the place looked deserted.
However, that didn’t mean that the courtyard wasn’t well-guarded. After all, it was the residence of Master Rong Yang.
Feng Wu had a pretty good idea what she was facing as soon as she stepped into the manor.
The real guard of the Rong manor was a formation.
The mist in the forest was only a common formation, but the one which guarded the manor was at a far more advanced level.
As a master in refining, Master Rong Yang had a much better understanding of formations than most people in the Junwu Empire, but fortunately –
Feng Wu had been studying formations since she was little, and her beautiful master was a truly peerless formation master.
Hence, she was confident that she could crack the manor’s Lightning Mist Formation.
Feng Wu calculated as she walked, and soon jumped over a wall and landed in the inner courtyard.
She knew that Master Rong Yang would be in his refinery room.
“So, where is the refinery room?” That would be the question Chaoge would ask if she was with Feng Wu.
Feng Wu smiled.
It was very easy to guess.
This mountain was in fact a volcano, and had the purest abnormal flame beneath it. The refinery room had to be right above the mouth of the volcano, which also served as the core of the Lightning Mist Formation.
Hence, Feng Wu would be able to find the master when she deduced where the core of the formation was.
Standing under an old tree, Feng Wu mumbled to herself and quickly did some calculations regarding the Lightning Mist Formation.
Just then, she heard footsteps a short distance away.
By the sound of it, it was the old steward and a stranger.
The old steward asked, “Is the master still inside?”
“The master hasn’t come out since he went inside.”
The old steward asked, “Is the master studying the dragon scale gold the Zuo family brought?”
“That’s right. The master hasn’t let go of the dragon scale gold since he went inside. All he has talked about is making a formidable dagger.”
The old steward said, “Yuan, keep your eyes open, and don’t let anyone in. If someone tries anything, you know what to do.”
Holding his sword between his crossed arms, Yuan said, “I’ll kill them without hesitation!”
The old man was flustered and immediately waved his hands. “You don’t have to go that far. If someone really tries to force their way in, knock them out and leave them to me.”
Yuan said, “Yes.”
The old steward strolled off after that, while Yuan jumped into a Chinese parasol tree a few steps away, and sat down with his legs crossed and eyes closed.
The old man walked past the pine tree that Feng Wu was hiding behind.
They were only a meter apart.
Not daring to take the old man lightly, Feng Wu moderated her heartbeat so that it was slow as possible.
Just then, the old steward glanced in the direction of the pine tree.
Feng Wu’s stomach lurched.
She couldn’t afford to be spotted.
This old man was quite a capable cultivator himself, and that guard known as Yuan was only a few steps away. There was no way that Feng Wu would be able to get away if the two men fought her together.
The old steward stuck his head behind the pine tree.
But by then, Feng Wu was already slowly circling around the tree away from the old man.
Luckily, the moon was covered by clouds at that moment, which blocked all light. Otherwise, Feng Wu would have been betrayed by her shadow alone.
That was so close!
And she was so nervous!
Taking a deep breath, Feng Wu forced her breathing to slow down and told herself to stay calm.
While she was holding her breath, the old man gave up.
