Feng Jiu shook her head: "No, I think it's good this way. This courtyard is quiet and peaceful, and with such a considerate Miss Duan to accompany me, it won't be boring."
"It's good that Master Feng likes this place. Come, Master Feng, please have your meal. After the meal, I will take you to see the exquisite seven-colored flowers. The spiritual medicine is planted in this yard and is taken care of by my daughter."
"Okay." Feng Jiu's eyes flickered. After looking at him, she picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
After chatting occasionally, the three of them walked towards the small garden after finishing their meal. Although it was dark, the exquisite colorful flower in the garden still emitted a faint halo, which looked very beautiful in the night.
"Mr. Feng, I visited a few families outside today. I already have the Millennium Ice Bed and two ninth-level ice crystal cores. As for the other elixir, I found it on the local black market. They said they would transfer it to me in the next two days. It should be all there within three days."
Speaking of this, City Lord Duan could not hide his joy. Finally, the three things were found, which made him feel relieved. Now, he just had to start treating the patient.
After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, glanced at his daughter, and then said to Feng Jiu, "Mr. Feng, I wonder if you can stay in this courtyard for the next two days! This courtyard is quite large, and there are quite a few rooms here."
Hearing this, Feng Jiu glanced at him with a half-smile: "City Lord Duan seems to be quite confident in me."
"Haha, Master Feng is a distinguished guest. I was thinking that since Master Feng and my daughter hit it off right away, I can have her accompany him for the next two days. Besides, the exquisite seven-colored flowers are in this courtyard, so I thought it might be more appropriate for Master Feng to live here."
She smiled, turned her head to look at Duan Yingying beside her, and said with a smile: "In that case, I will stay in this courtyard. Flowers and beauties are company, which is really pleasing to the eyes."
So, Fengjiu settled down in this courtyard. However, Duan Yingying, who lived in the same courtyard, did not even realize that it was inconvenient for a man and a woman to live in the same courtyard. In her opinion, it was fine as long as they did not live in the same room. She did not care about her reputation like those so-called ladies from wealthy families.
But Fengjiu didn't know at this moment that she would meet someone she hadn't seen for a long time...
The next morning
A man wearing a black robe, with an untidy beard and a sturdy build walked in from outside the city gate. His unkempt appearance made him look like a man in his thirties or forties, which was a bit scary.
He held a long round-handled sword in his hand and walked with an air of majesty and murderous intent, causing people on the street to involuntarily move away from him and make way for him when they saw him.
Some monks even looked at the man in black clothes with a strong build and whispered, "This man has a murderous aura. You can tell from the looks of it that he is not someone you want to mess with."
"He has a restrained aura. What he exudes is not spiritual energy, but profound energy. It is profound energy that has reached the peak of Martial Saint. Who is this person? With the strength of a Martial Saint, he is definitely a powerful person."
"Yes, this level of profound strength cultivation is already comparable to the level of the peak master in the Xuanwu Sect."
