Chapter 871 - Xiao Ya V
“There is neither genius nor fool in this realm. I don’t need an arrogant genius. What I truly need is someone who is willing to work hard at cultivation.”
The lady had followed what she said. She had trodden the path of a warrior and worked harder than everyone else.
Currently, she was still telling the lady the same thing. There would be something remaining the way they were no matter how many years had passed.
“Follow me.”
Feng Ruqing looked away, walked down the stairs, and strode toward the setting sun.
Xiao Ya quickly rushed after Feng Ruqing and stared in awe at Feng Ruqing. The lady’s eyes were sparkling brighter than the dazzling stars.
‘It’s great… God is back… the noble lady is back…’

“Qing Han, are you sure you don’t know this lady?” Feng Ruqing could feel that someone was watching her from behind. She knitted her brows together as she asked.
“She is not the one who has called out to me. I really don’t know her.” Qing Han hesitated for a while, shook her head and answered telepathically.
“But I could feel that she knows me… just like Big Gray Doggie.” The lady’s gaze was so sharp and felt like it was burning into Feng Ruqing’s back.
In the medium, Qing Han bit her finger and tilted her head to look at Fu Chen, who was still sleeping.
Fu Chen told Qing Han that Feng Ruqing might be the Ninth Emperor. However, Qing Gan grew up in the herbal garden. She had no idea who was the Ninth Emperor’s acquaintances. Only years after the Ninth Emperor went missing, both Qing Han and Fu Chen left the herbal garden.
“Mother, I have no idea. Perhaps Big Black would know.”
“It’s Big Gray Doggie, not Big Black,” Feng Ruqing said, solemnly, as her face darkened.
“Alright, Mother,” Qing Han answered, obediently.
‘Brother Fu Chen said that we could never reason with a lady. Hence, whatever Mother said is right.’
Just as Feng Ruqing reached the manor, a familiar figure could be seen standing in the breeze with the help of a servant, waiting, quietly, for Feng Ruqing.
Feng Ruqing walked past Qin Fei’er as if she did not see her.
“Young Lady Feng, I have something to talk to you about.” Qin Fei’er’s face darkened, she could not help calling out to Feng Ruqing.
“I am not close to you.” Feng Ruqing’s hand that was going to open the door, stopped mid-air as her back was still facing Qin Fei’er.
In other words, Feng Ruqing was not close with Qin Fei’er. Hence, they had nothing to talk about.
“Don’t get sassy with Young Lady Qin!” The servant snarled.
“Liu Xia, wait for me at the side. I have something to discuss with this young lady about.” Just as the servant was about to burst with anger, Qin Fei’er shot her a cold glare as she shouted.
“But… Young Lady Qin…” Liu Xia protested.
Qin Fei’er’s face was getting paler. Liu Xia had gone too far recently. She might have put the Qin family into trouble if she continued behaving like this.
“I am your master. Just do what I told you.”
Liu Xia stared peevishly at the Feng Ruqing, her eyes flickered. She did not stand aside but left the spot to look for someone else in the Qin family.
‘Young Lady Qin is kind but this young lady is too vicious. She might hurt Young Lady Qin. I must inform Lady Qin. No one could hurt Young Lady Qin!’

The sun was setting.
Feng Ruqing tilted her head slightly as she stared calmly at Qin Fei’er.
“What do you want to talk to me about?”
“Young Lady Feng, I heard the things that you have said to Tan Shuangshuang. How much do you need to leave Chen’er alone? The Qin family could pay you either money or spirit herbs.” Qin Fei’er’s smiled faintly.
