Chapter 1247 - Do Not Expose
At this, Yang Yong smiled and said: “I heard from Gray Wolf and the rest that Ren Xiang can’t find any trace of the Ghost Doctor. He doesn’t know where the Ghost Doctor has gone. I’ve also heard My Lord mention that he has a ten year contract with the Ghost Doctor? And if your cultivation strength hasn’t reached the Nascent Soul stage then you aren’t supposed to be here?”
“Yes! The ten year contract is to test My Lord.” She chuckled lightly: “I sneaked in this time to see if he was taking advantage of me not being around and hugging women left and right. But ever since I have entered here, I haven’t seen a maidservant in the inner courtyard, won’t this cause an imbalance between yin and yang?”
Yang Yong was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the person in front of him who had a sly look on her face and couldn’t help but chuckled: “You’re overthinking things.”
“My Lord doesn’t lust after women, there are maidservants in the outer courtyards but none in the inner courtyards. The manservants are the ones that do the chores, your sudden inspection will leave you disappointed.”
“Nonsense, do I have to see him in another woman’s arms to feel disappointed?”
She rolled her eyes and then said: “I came here because I have something to do, it’s just that I have a few days free so I came over to see him. That’s right, is his Frost Poison really dispelled? I heard Ren Xiang and Gray Wolf say that it has been dispelled? How did it happen? I haven’t even found a way to dispel his Frost Poison.”
“Yes, it has been dispelled. Actually My Lord’s cultivation method is most superior, otherwise he wouldn’t have been able to restrain the Thousand Year Frost Poison for so many years. In the past, My Lord was unable to dispel the poison because his cultivation was not complete.”
“During that period of time, those forces were against My Lord. Once. My Lord allowed those people to think that they had succeeded and took the opportunity to retreat and cultivate. Finally, My Lord was able to complete his cultivation and he used the power in his body to force the Frost Poison out. But he lost a lot of power because of this, and at that time….”
When he got to this point, he paused. He had only looked at her with a smile and didn’t say anything.
“What happened at that time?” Feng Jiu was listening and when she saw that he had stopped speaking, she couldn’t help but wonder.
“The matter is over now, it doesn’t matter if we talk about it or not. By the way, you mentioned that you came here because you have something to do? Can I help?” He changed the subject because he thought that he shouldn’t talk about that time when My Lord had become smaller because of the loss of power.
“It’s not necessary. However, if it is possible I would like to stay here over the next few months. After a few months, I will have to leave to deal with my affairs. After I leave I won’t be back any time soon to see him. I won’t be staying in the Imperial City for a long time, so if he doesn’t recognise me, sigh, then you don’t have to say anything about my arrival.”
“Okay.” He nodded: “If there is anything you need my help with, just let me know. I have men under my command who I can deploy.”
“Yes, I know.” She smiled and asked curiously: “I heard that you are the second son from a big noble family. So why did you come here to be his steward? Does your family approve?”
Yang Yong smiled gently: “I am the second son, therefore I don’t have to take over the family responsibilities, so naturally my family has no objections. Moreover, it’s been really good following My Lord, I have learned many things here. Being a steward in his residence is comparable to being the head of a family outside.”
Feng Jiu nodded: “That’s true, after all, his status is not ordinary. You are his steward and his trusted follower, you’ve not lost out by not being a head of your family on the outside.”
“Are you staying in a servant’s room at the moment? Should I change your room?”
