Chapter 1033: Beauty


Many came to drink with Feng Feiyun tonight - Yan Ziyu, Xie Honglian, Heaven Calculating Scholar, Su Yun, Dongfang Jingshui…


They drank until Feiyun became rather drunk. He remembered a beauty coming over to offer him a drink. She sat on his lap after noticing his condition, showing her alluring red lips, snow-white complexion, and long flowy hair.


Feiyun was too drunk then to remember who she was. Far later on, Bi Ningshuai told him that the girl was Long Qingyang and the two of them exchanged the traditional cups of wine between husband and wife several times. Afterward, Feiyun rarely drank. [1]


When he woke up, it was already noon. The wine last night was especially strong. His current cultivation was not enough to stop it. It seemed that even paragons would get drunk.


He found himself to be laying on a woman’s bed - a red blanket made of silk on an ivory bed. The pillars were made of spirit stones; the entire room had the scent of a woman.


“This is Liu Suhong’s scent, why am I back here?” He rubbed his forehead and didn’t remember anything last night outside of having a great drink with a beauty.


“Master, you’re finally awake.” A maid with her hair tied in two buns opened the door. She carried a basin of hot water over and helped Feiyun wash his face.


Her name was Mi’er, serving as Liu Suhong’s maid. She was rather pretty and gentle.


“Where is the first princess right now? Who brought me back last night?”


She furrowed her brows and had a strange expression. She said softly: “Master, an exceptionally beautiful woman brought you back. She had a jade pipa and a white veil so I couldn’t really see her. She looked like a fairy and left everyone frozen in awe. They said that it must be your concubine… the first princess was… ahem, who is she?”


Feiyun closed his eyes and murmured: “So she brought me back.”


He then asked: “Where is she right now?”


“The first princess is having tea with her…” Mi’er hesitated for a moment before answering.


“Tea?” Feiyun disappeared from the room.


Liu Suhong was a merciless woman, always strict with others and especially herself. In her mind, a woman should only have one man. The opposite also applied.


Feiyun was brought back by another woman and most importantly, she was even more beautiful. This was unacceptable for Liu Suhong.


However, a tragedy didn’t happen. Along the way, Feiyun saw Dongfang Jingyue walking in the hallway leisurely while holding her pipa.


She saw Feiyun and stopped amidst the windy winter. Snowflakes fell on her long hair and veiled face, looking like a flower amidst a storm.


The veil hid her face but not her eyes. They were black like pearls shining brightly.


He stared at her and didn’t know what to say. He found that he was truly worried about her. Was it because of her or Shui Yueting?


“Did she do anything to you?” He broke the silence.


“No, she was nice and invited me for some tea.” She shook her head and said softly.


“Poisonous?” Feiyun had to ask.


“That’s still tea.”


“Then did you drink it?” Feiyun clenched his fists, thinking that Liu Suhong was out of line.


“... yes.”


“Why? Are you insane?”


She bit her lower lip and said: “Because she is your fiance and the first princess of Crimson, while I am… nothing but just a girl from a small place.”


“So? Just don’t drink her tea. If she tells you to jump off a cliff, would you do it?”


“There’s nothing I can do, she’s stronger than me and has more influence. I would have to jump if she tells me to…”


“Are you still Dongfang Jingyue?” He uttered coldly.


“Of course.”


“Since when is the stubborn Dongfang Jingyue so weak and foolish?”


“I’ve realized that I’ve always been weak and foolish after you became far stronger in such a short time.” She responded.


“There’s no medicine to cure you…” He then gathered Buddhist energy and grabbed her wrist.


His energy entered her so she became shrouded in golden radiance, looking like a Bodhisattva.


She stood there calmly and noticed his tense expression, feeling rather happy inside.


“You’re not poisoned.” However, he pulled his hand back and said.


“Of course, drinking poisoned tea doesn’t always leave the drinker afflicted.” She said.


“This isn’t Liu Suhong’s style. If she had decided to poison you, she would have chosen something fatal.” He said.


“Do you want me to die so quickly?” Jingyue lowered her head.


“Of course not.”


“He wants to keep on torturing you, changing one fiance after another, just want you to cry your heart out until death.” Yun Ge repeated while perching on a branch nearby. It looked like a fiery parrot.


“Old Mao, roast it for me.” Feiyun has been unhappy with this bird for a very long time now.


The turtle crawled out of Feiyun’s pocket and stood up straight on two legs. It then leaped towards the bird and shouted: “Die, idiot bird!”


“Shit! A turtle demon, someone help!” The bird flapped its wings.


“I’m going to break your teeth today, little bird!”


“As if you can even touch me, turtle!”


Mao Guwui angrily crawled up the tree and onto the branch, punching the bird in the head.


“That’s it, I’m not holding back anymore!” The bird’s flames intensified. It performed a tailwhip and sent the turtle flying into a wall.


The two started fighting chaotically.


Meanwhile, Feiyun stared at her eyes and asked: “You… cried?”


“No.” She answered decisively.


“The circumstances forced me to be engaged to Liu Suhong.” He explained.


“I know that you will make the right choice but this is your personal business. You don’t have to tell me.” She backed off a bit to maintain some distance: “If you have too much on your mind and want to relax, I’ll play you a song any time.”


“Thank you.” He couldn’t take his eyes off her.


“You’re welcome.” She said and then left.


Yun Ge has lost all of its feathers above its head, looking like a duck. It said that it was going to get payback before leaving with Dongfang Jingyue.


The turtle wasn’t looking good either. It had an ashen layer from being burned by Yun Ge. It spat out a ring of black smoke and said: “Fuck, that bird’s flame is strong, is it an offspring of a phoenix and parrot? No, phoenixes use their blood to form an egg, they don’t produce with other species. Then a golden crow and a parrot? Maybe a fire luan and a parrot…”


Feiyun wasn’t listening because he was still staring in the direction of Dongfang Jingyue.


The turtle came over and whispered: “If you like her, just let her know. She’s pretty with a kind heart, not to mention that she’s interested in you too.”


“You don’t get it.” Feiyun said.


“Taking it slow? That’s not your style.”


“She’s not like any other girl.”


“I already knew. How can a regular girl raise such a foul-mouthed parrot? If only Laoshi was here too, we would have roasted it.” The turtle said.


“It’s rather strange that she wasn’t poisoned after drinking that tea.” Feiyun shook his head.


“Right, Liu Suhong is a master poisoner since you were poisoned too. You would have died if it wasn’t for the rebirth, strange indeed.”


“I sent energy into her body earlier and spotted saint energy, faint but they’re there.”


“I see.”


“So that one jade ship also has saint ashes…? Or perhaps…” He contemplated and murmured to himself.
