Xiao Yifeng’s scalp tingled under that intense gaze. He forced out a stiff laugh. “Senior Sister… What are you doing here?”
Su Miaoqing puffed up with anger. “How come I can’t be here? Did I interrupt you going out to enjoy yourself again? I told you it was strange that you insisted on returning to the Yuanhai Kingdom.”
“Senior Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? Nothing like that! I was just hungry and went out to find something to eat,” Xiao Yifeng said, trying to cover it up.
Su Miaoqing clearly didn’t believe him. She stood up and walked over to him. Her stunning little face moved close as she sniffed around him, her delicate nose twitching slightly.
Xiao Yifeng could only give a helpless smile. Finished. I'm done for!
Su Miaoqing grabbed his hand and sniffed it once before letting out a cold laugh. “Young Master Xiao is truly quite the romantic, I see. Which girl did you go to visit in Elegant Courtyard tonight? Why didn’t you simply come back tomorrow morning?”
“Senior Sister, you’ve misunderstood. I really just went out to eat,” Xiao Yifeng replied with an awkward laugh.
“Misunderstanding? Did you eat people or something? There are several different rouge fragrances on you. I smelled them from far away. And how do you explain the smell on your hands?”
Su Miaoqing said angrily. This guy is really hateful! Does he take me for a fool?
Xiao Yifeng cursed those demoness inwardly. They had smeared themselves with so much rouge and powder. He had only exchanged blows with them for a short moment, yet he had ended up covered in the scent.
He was also baffled by Su Miaoqing’s keen nose. Are you the reincarnation of an Immortal Bird? You’re not a puppy.
Then he secretly thought that next time he must use the Xu family’s secret method of removing odours with green tangerines.
“You say it’s not true. Then do you dare to swear an oath?” Su Miaoqing stared into his eyes. “You didn’t go to Elegant Courtyard today, and you didn’t go to that street either?”
Xiao Yifeng had no words to respond with. Inwardly, he cursed Zhang Tianzhi and his sister again. Of all places to choose as a hideout, they had to choose the Elegant Courtyard.
Seeing that he remained silent, Su Miaoqing grew so angry that she looked as though she might burst into tears. She kicked him fiercely.
“Rotten Xiaofeng, lecherous Xiaofeng! Are you really that desperate? Running to those places all day! I hate you! I’m going back to tell Mother!”
Su Miaoqing angrily ran off, returning to her room and slamming the door shut.
Xiao Yifeng sighed helplessly. This time he was truly finished. Even if he jumped into a river, he wouldn’t be able to wash himself clean. His reputation was completely ruined.
Because of the incident with Luo Yun earlier, Su Miaoqing had already ignored him for a long time. Only in the past day or two had things finally begun to ease between them. And now this had happened again.
After thinking about it, Xiao Yifeng guessed that this was probably related to the “Destiny is Mine,” the secret technique of the Book of Destiny. The backlash of this technique had arrived rather quickly.
Although the "Destiny is Mine" could instantly reverse one’s fortune, the backlash was that for a period afterwards, misfortune would follow one after another.
His bad luck had already begun.
The next day, Xiao Yifeng called Su Miaoqing to get up for breakfast, but she completely ignored him. No matter how much he talked, she remained unmoved.
In the end, Xiao Yifeng could only inform her that he planned to go out alone to search for the Sea Spirit Flower.
However, the moment he prepared to leave, Su Miaoqing suddenly opened the door and followed him out. “Senior Sister… are you not angry anymore?” Xiao Yifeng asked cautiously.
Su Miaoqing gave a cold snort and refused to say a single word. She simply followed behind him in silence. Clearly, she was keeping a close eye on him, making sure he didn’t sneak off to Elegant Courtyard again.
Xiao Yifeng very much wanted to point out that Elegant Courtyard didn’t even open during the daytime.
The two of them walked in silence and soon arrived at a rather large estate outside Lijing, called Hundred Flowers Manor.
This manor covered several thousand mu of land and was one of the famous attractions of Lijing. There was a sea of flowers planted here, including a batch of Sea Spirit Flowers and all kinds of precious blossoms.
It was also a well-known place in Lijing for trading flowers, making it the perfect destination for appreciating and purchasing them. Even before stepping into the garden, the fragrance of flowers already filled the air.
Xiao Yifeng and Su Miaoqing walked through the garden, admiring the various blossoms. Soon, a clever maidservant came forward and began introducing the flowers to them one by one.
When the delicate-looking maid learned that the two intended to purchase these famous flowers, the smile on her face became even brighter.
Xiao Yifeng instructed the maid to bring several portions of all the flower varieties and blossoms currently available for purchase. This was quite a large order. The maid quickly invited the steward over.
After Xiao Yifeng paid a deposit, the steward invited Xiao Yifeng and Su Miaoqing to wait for a while in the flower sea at the back. Once everything was prepared, they would inform them.
The maid then led the two to the flower sea behind the manor’s rear hill. There, the sea of flowers stretched endlessly, filled everywhere with precious Sea Spirit Flowers. One could not see the end of it at a glance, and petals drifted through the air.
It was said that this Sea Spirit Flower Sea was not open to the public and was reserved only for distinguished guests. The Sea Spirit Flower looked rather similar to a Spider Lily, yet its entire body was blue and crystal-clear. Its fragrance was quiet and subtle, and anyone who smelled it would feel their mind become calm.
There was a small path winding through the flower sea. The maid led the two to a pavilion within the flowers, served fragrant tea, and then tactfully withdrew.
In the pavilion, Su Miaoqing did not wish to speak to him. She sat there alone, sulking in silence. Xiao Yifeng could only stand quietly inside the pavilion, waiting. The two of them remained wordless as they admired the flowers covering the mountains.
Before long, both of them sensed someone approaching. Turning around, they saw that the newcomers were a man and a woman. Both sides froze in surprise for a moment.
“Young Master Xiao, Fairy Su. Is that you?” the woman who had arrived later said in surprise.
The stunning woman was walking towards the pavilion accompanied by a dignified and imposing man.
At this moment she wore a veil over her face, yet even the eyes and brows that were visible revealed that she was a rare beauty. She wore a white dress that flowed to her ankles, looking like a flower fairy amidst the sea of blossoms.
“Miss Yuge, I didn’t expect to meet you again here!” Xiao Yifeng said with a smile. Su Miaoqing also nodded towards Yuge.
Xiao Yifeng truly did not expect to see her here, because at this moment Yuge should have been dealing with the remaining matters in the palace.
The man beside her was not Zhang Tianzhi. That man looked heroic and extraordinary, tall in stature. His appearance somewhat resembled Dai Yun, though he carried a more refined and scholarly air.
When Yuge saw that it really was the two of them, she could not help but feel a little excited. She quickened her pace and walked towards Xiao Yifeng and Su Miaoqing, soon arriving at the pavilion where they were.
“I didn’t expect it really to be the two of you. Yuge thought she might never see you again in this lifetime,” she said, joy appearing on her cool and composed face.
Though she seemed to be speaking to both of them, her eyes did not blink as they stared at Xiao Yifeng, the excitement within them difficult to restrain.
This caused Su Miaoqing to cough lightly in dissatisfaction before slowly standing up, reminding her that she was also present.
The man beside Yuge frowned slightly. It was the first time he had seen the usually cold and distant Yuge behave like this, and it was towards a man.
“Fairy Su, it has been a long time. You have become even more beautiful. It makes Yuge feel somewhat inferior,” Yuge said, coming back to her senses with a faint blush as she spoke to Su Miaoqing.
Her words were not mere flattery. After not seeing them for two years, both Xiao Yifeng and Su Miaoqing had changed greatly. Especially Su Miaoqing. Her figure and appearance had fully matured, and combined with her proud and transcendent temperament, it made it impossible for others to look away.
Two years ago she had been a young girl whose beauty was like a flower bud waiting to bloom, relying mainly on her stunning appearance, now her looks, temperament, and figure together gave Yuge a sense of falling short in comparison. Fortunately, she herself had not remained unchanged either.
“Miss Yuge is being too modest,” Su Miaoqing replied, her expression improving slightly. Though inwardly she couldn’t help wondering something rather strange. Since when had Yuge become a cultivator?
On then did the man beside Yuge noticed Su Miaoqing sitting in the pavilion. He was stunned by her beauty and became somewhat absent-minded. He had not expected that there could exist a woman in this world even more captivating than Yuge. It took him quite a while to regain his senses.
