Chapter 52: Feng Manor in Northern Qing

After the boat had sailed, Feng Shen went back to the cabin. In the cabin, the old man in yellow and the servants were already waiting there.

“B*stards, where are the people on duty today when the Young Master was drowning?” The old man’s white beard was trembling and he had a furious expression.

If they had not met with someone who had the means to help, Young Master Feng Shen would have died.

“Please punish us, Young Master.” All the servants kneeled and their knees made a sound as they did so, and they were all well-coordinated as if they were military-trained.

They were well aware that if they didn’t encounter a benefactor, Young Master Feng Shen would have been in serious danger. They would then return to Northern Qing where the Qing Emperor would punish them.

“Teacher, it wasn’t intentional.” Feng Shen had a good-tempered expression on his face.

Some servants who were still standing breathed out a sigh of relief. Feng Shen was merciful and it seemed like he wanted to be understanding of his men even when met with such a situation. He was a coward, like what those rumors pictured him to be.

“Young Master, every nation has its laws and every family has its own rules. They should never have broken the Feng manor rules.” The old man had a glum expression on his face.

The old man started to talk nonstop, saying that if anything had happened to Young Master, he would not know how to face the Feng family’s ancestors and the people.

“If that is the case, punish three of them as a warning for others.” Since Feng Shen had a weak immune system, he caught a cold right after falling into the water and his head felt a little heavy.

He then randomly pointed his finger and it landed on the people who stood at the side.

The servants he pointed at stiffened. Before they could even resist, Feng Manor guards grabbed their hands and pressed them to the ground.

“Young Master, spare us. We did nothing wrong since we are not on duty today.” Those three people had innocent expressions on. They wanted to struggle, but they did not have the strength to resist the Feng manor guards who were Postnatal peak and Connate masters.

“Why did the three of you show up on the deck when you’re not on duty? Drag them out and kill them.” Feng Shen held his forehead with his right hand, looking like he was going to fall if the wind blew at him.

A trace of coldness flashed past his deep eyes.

The guards then dragged the servants out, and soon there were no more sounds.

“Young Master, you are feeling unwell again. Would you like to have another Bright Sun Ginseng?” Looking at Feng Shen’s weak appearance, the old man ordered someone to put a fur coat around Feng Shen while he took out the Bright Sun Ginseng.

“I don’t know if this illness is getting worse or if the effect of this Bright Sun Ginseng is not as good as before.” Feng Shen waved his hand, his face looking a little pale.

He had been sickly since he was a child so he would know if the medicine had any effect just by taking it.

“Young Master, you don’t have to worry. Heaven protects the good and they will cure your illness one day.” The old man sighed in his heart. Why did such a beautiful boy with a delicate heart suffer from such an incurable disease?

If it wasn’t for Feng Shen’s illness acting up along the way, they would not have stopped in Glass City.

He hoped that this trip to Glass City would improve the Young Master’s illness.

Glass City was one of the ten famous cities of Great Xia and they named it after its location by the glass-like river.

Because of the delay, it was already dark when the Ye family and their party arrived at Glass City.

From a distance, one could see the lights from two lighthouses at the gate of Glass City.

Several people were waiting when they arrived at the gate.

“Fifth Brother.” Hearing Ye Fengyun’s cry, Ye Lingyue drew apart the carriage’s curtain and saw a man in his thirties scurrying towards them from the city gates. That was Ye Huangxuan, Ye Gu’s fifth son.

Speaking of this Ye Huangxuan, he was an unusual one in the Ye family. The Ye family were all martial arts practitioners, but Ye Huangxuan did not like martial arts since he was a child, so Ye Gu sent him to Glass City to study.

Fortunately, Ye Huangxuan lived up to the expectations. After finishing his studies, he stayed in Glass City, and within a few years, it revealed his talent for business.

Several brothers of the Ye family stayed in Autumn Maple town while Ye Huangxuan stayed in Glass City. He was in charge of selling the dark ironstones of the Ye family into the major chambers of commerce in Glass City.

When Ye Lingyue saw this Fifth Uncle, she found that he was different from the other uncles.

His cultivation was not high and was at most at the eighth or ninth level of body tempering. However, he looked amiable and had that unique merchant’s wisdom in his eyes.

“Big Brother, you’re here. Ye Sheng, you’re here, too.” Ye Huangxuan seldom went back to the Ye family, so he did not know that Ye Lingyue had become clever.

When he saw Ye Lingyue jumping off the carriage, it stunned Ye Huangxuan at first. When did the main family have such an outstanding niece?

“You don’t recognize her, do you? This is Third Sister’s daughter, Lingyue. Father asked me to take her to the city to look around.”

Ye Fengyun kept the explanation brief, telling Ye Huangxuan about Ye Lingyue becoming smart, taking part in the mountain hunt, and even discovering the ice herbs.

“That’s great. We should celebrate. You’ve just arrived here so let me show you around Glass City and I’ll take you to Drunken Immortal House for dinner.” Ye Huangxuan and Ye Fengyu were close since they were young, so he had a good impression on Ye Lingyue. They went to the Drunken Immortal House.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, Ye Huangxuan let Ye Sheng and Ye Lingyue pick some dishes they liked. They could not help smacking their lips when they saw the menu.

“Fifth Uncle, the things in this city are expensive. This dish costs a few taels of silver. It will cost one hundred taels of silver for the whole table.” Ye Sheng felt his heart ache.

“Haha. You still know how to save money for your Fifth Uncle. This Drunken Immortal House is not an ordinary place. The dishes here are all medicinal meals. After eating, you can get rid of the impurities in your body and improve your cultivation. Even the people from the Alchemist Association in Glass City eat here,” Ye Huangxuan said with a smile and ordered some dishes.

After the dishes had been served, Ye Fengyun and his son were full of praises for them. Ye Lingyue also picked up food with her chopsticks and fed it to Squeaky, who rested on her shoulder.

Squeaky sniffed at it and immediately turned away, looking uninterested.

Its appearance made the two seniors of the Ye family amused.

Compared to the spiritual fruits and vegetables grown in Hongmeng Sanctuary, the dishes didn’t taste as good. With how Ye Lingyue fed Squeaky, his taste buds had turned rather selective.

Ye Lingyue smiled. If they could sell the dishes of Drunken Immortal at an unreasonable price, then the dishes made from her spiritual fruits and vegetables could fetch an outrageous price as well.

“Lingyue, forgive me if I’m wrong. This little beast of yours is a spiritual beast, right?” Ye Huangxuan noticed the little beast perched on Ye Lingyue’s shoulder.

Seeing its bright eyes and smooth and clean fur, it seemed like it could understand human speech.

“If you have time, you can go to the spiritual beast shop in the city to see what type of spiritual beast it is,” Ye Huangxuan said.

“Squeak,” Squeaky cried out in discontent. One should not confuse it with inferior spiritual beasts.

Ye Fengyun and Ye Huangxuan hadn’t seen each other for a long time and had many things to talk about. As they talked, they saw several people in blue robes coming in.
