1118: Bright Dragon Soil

Bright Dragon Soil

Those around them all drew in their breaths.1

Lady Northern Feng was such a tough character…

She taught her daughter quite differently from everyone else.

Lady Cai's face turned darker, for she felt as if Lady Northern Feng was mocking her.

But —

It wasn't like Lady Cai could retort.

Xuanyuan Ying looked stumped for a split second, but was soon back to normal. She smiled at Lady Northern Feng. "Your Ladyship is right. But please don't worry. I won't let anything happen to Sister Wu."

"When everything is over, I'd like to see if Lady Northern Feng will still want this daughter!" Xuanyuan Ying smirked inwardly.

In the backyard —

Xuanyuan Ying led Feng Wu all the way there and soon met up with Zuo Qingyu and the others.

Everyone welcomed Feng Wu warmly this time.

Zuo Qingyu smiled. "Sister Wu is so pretty."

Dugu Yamo said, "I agree with Qingyu. Before, I thought Sister Zuo Qingluan was the most beautiful person in the imperial capital, but Sister Wu is equally pretty, if not better."

Zuo Qingyu didn't flinch when she heard that; rather, her smile turned even brighter. "You don't say. My sister really isn't as pretty as Sister Wu here. As Zuo Qingluan's own sister, I can attest to that."

Xuanyuan Ying said, "Oh, my, I heard that. Sister Zuo will beat you up when she gets back."

Dugu Yamo looked at Zuo Qingyu. "Your sister is coming back?"

Zuo Qingyu glanced at Feng Wu with a smile. "I think she'll be back after she becomes a Spiritual Lord."

"A Spiritual Lord?!"

All the girls drew in their breaths!

Xuanyuan Ying said, "Isn't that too high a goal? How long do we have to wait to see Sister Qingluan?"

"It won't be that long." Zuo Qingyu glanced at Feng Wu indifferently, then said with a smile, "With my sister's talent, she'll become a Spiritual Lord in less than a year."

"Less than a year?!"

"Oh god! Is that even possible?"

"What level is Sister Qingluan at now?!"

Everyone cried out in surprise.

Their reactions weren't for Feng Wu; Zuo Qingluan really was making progress so fast that her peers were feeling the pressure. They felt that they couldn't even begin to catch up to her.

Zuo Qingyu darted another look at Feng Wu, then smiled. "My sister? I heard from my father the other day that she's a Level 7 Spiritual Elder already."

"Seriously?!" Xuanyuan Ying was the first one to cry out. "Didn't she only just become a Spiritual Elder?"

Zuo Qingyu raised her head and looked proud. "You know very well how talented my sister is. Other people have been making such quick progress; can my sister be slower than that?"

By "other people," she obviously meant Feng Wu.

Everyone sighed in amazement, for Zuo Qingluan's speed of progress was way beyond their expectations.

"If that's the case, the only girl good enough for His Royal Highness is Sister Qingluan. I can't think of anyone else." Even Xuanyuan Ying had to admit that.

As they chatted, Feng Wu frowned a little.

So, did these people bring her out here so that she could listen to stories about Zuo Qingluan?

Feng Wu was about to find an excuse to leave, when Xuanyuan Ying cried out, "I got it!"

Everyone looked at her in bewilderment.

Xuanyuan Ying said, "Just the other day, someone gave my grandfather a precious birthday gift."

The others asked in unison, "What gift?"

Xuanyuan Ying said, "Bright Dragon Soil."

"What's Bright Dragon Soil?" Feng Liu was confused.

So was Zuo Qingyu.

Dugu Yamo cried out, "Bright Dragon Soil? Really? The legendary Bright Dragon Soil that's supposed to be able to refine one's talent?"
