Chapter 118 – The Seventh Princess
Translator: Mr Voltaire
Editor: Master Shadow
It was not difficult to imagine just what sort of heaven-shaking might would be released once that divine beast awakened.
“This Imperial Clan’s background is quite extraordinary,” the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow said.
“Mm,” Xiao Yun nodded. One could tell how exceptional they were, not just from the palace, but even from their Martial Skills. No matter if it was the Heavenly Phoenix Palms or the Divine Phoenix Seal, these were not Martial Skills that Earth-grade Martial Skills could compare with.
“I found a medicinal garden.” Suddenly, the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s eyes lit up.
“Yiya!”
Yiyi also gave a happy shout as she looked down at the Imperial Palace. Xiao Yun sent out his spirit energy, and found that this Imperial Palace was indeed quite marvellous. It had a lofty and majestic grandeur to it, and its layout seemed to be based on Fengshui, bringing about luck and prosperity. The Essence Qi was also incredibly dense, as if there were Essence Veins here. The familiar waves of Essence Qi were able to make one’s spirit relaxed. It was not difficult to imagine that cultivating within the Imperial Palace would produce twice the harvest with half the work.
Emperor Feng brought Xiao Yun to one of the palace courtyards.
“We pay our respects to Your Majesty.” Seeing Emperor Feng arrive, the palace attendants knelt down in wors.h.i.+p, a respectful look on their faces.
“You may withdraw,” Emperor Feng said as he waved his hand.
Xiao Yun followed beside Emperor Feng, and as he sent his spirit energy out, he felt quite shocked. The guards in the Imperial Palace were mostly Innate realm cultivators, and there were also many True Essence realm cultivators. This was as expected of the Imperial Palace. After all, in the Violet Cloud County, a family having 2 True Essence realm cultivators was already considered to be very powerful!
“This is our daughter’s room.” Emperor Feng strode with powerful steps, taking Xiao Yun to one of the rooms in the courtyard. Xiao Yun gave a slight nod and did not say anything, just following behind Emperor Feng.
“Our daughter’s illness has plagued her for a long time, but she still has not recovered yet. As such, we will have to trouble young sir Xiao to personally take a look,” Emperor Feng courteously said as he brought Xiao Yun into the room. Inside, there was a group of serving ladies, all of whom paid their respects to the Emperor as they saw him. After they went to notify the princess, an elegant and lovely-looking young woman wearing a palace dress walked out.
This young woman’s eyes and eyebrows were picturesque, her elegant almond-shaped eyes were extremely bright, and she gave off a slight sense of a heroic air. Not only were her looks exquisite, but her figure was also perfect, causing her tight palace dress to quiver as she walked. Even though she was still quite young, she already had a very full figure. However, her waist was incredibly slim, and swayed as she walked.
This Princess’ figure was tall and slim, but had curves at all the right places. Upon seeing her, anyone’s breath would be taking away. This was the Moonwind Kingdom’s Seventh Princess, Feng Yu Yao!
“Imperial Father, you wanted to see me?” Feng Yu Yao asked after paying her respects to Emperor Feng. Her voice was soft and gentle, and extremely pleasant to listen to. Her tone gave off a sense of weakness, which contrasted with the heroic sense that she gave off. Anyone who heard that voice would feel tender towards her.
“Yao’Er, we want to introduce a young hero to you.” Emperor Feng had a kind look in his eyes as he smiled, pointing towards the youth beside him, “This is Xiao Yun, young sir Xiao. Haha, young sir Xiao, this is Our daughter, Feng Yu Yao.”
“Young sir Xiao?” Feng Yu Yao raised an eyebrow, blinking with her beautiful eyes as she looked at this unfamiliar youth, feeling quite confused. This youth was only 16 or 17 years old, so why was her father acting so courteously towards him? As the Emperor of the Moonwind Kingdom, what need was there to act like this?
“Greetings, Princess.” Xiao Yun cupped his fists respectfully towards the Seventh Princess.
“Mm.” Feng Yu Yao slightly nodded her head, seeming neither warm nor cold.
“Haha, Yu Yao, this young sir Xiao is quite extraordinary. Not only is he extremely talented, but he also possesses skills in the arts of healing and in the way of pill refining.” Seeing the Seventh Princess maintain a calm expression on her face, Emperor Feng smiled as he said, “We’ve invited young sir Xiao here in the hopes that he can rid you of your illness.”
“Rid me of my illness?” Hearing this, Feng Yu Yao slightly frowned, looking quite confused as she said, “Imperial Father, you should know that my illness is not something that can be easily cured – even Uncle Mo was unable to do anything about it. Will he really be able to cure it?”
Feng Yu Yao’s att.i.tude was quite calm and cold, and she only glanced at Xiao Yun. She didn’t believe that this youth, who was at a similar age to her, could have such abilities.
“Haha, how we will know if we don’t try?” Emperor Feng laughed. “After all, young sir Xiao was able to completely cure Wan Ting’s Moon Demon Poison. That poison has caused headaches for the Yuan family for many years, and yet young sir Xiao was able to eliminate it. How can he be someone ordinary?”
“Little sister Wan Ting’s Moon Demon Poison was cured?” Hearing this, Feng Yu Yao looked at Yuan Lin, who was beside Emperor Feng, and Xiao Yun in shock. Evidently, this Seventh Princess was familiar with the Yuan family’s people.
“Mm.” Yuan Lin gave a slight smile, telling everything to Feng Yu Yao, including how he had initially stabilised her poison, then refined a Sun Antidote Pill. Hearing this, Feng Yu Yao’s eyes shone, and her gaze towards the youth in front of her was not so cold anymore.
“What? You refined a Sun Antidote Pill despite subst.i.tuting one of the medicinal ingredients?” Feng Yu Yao’s body slightly trembled, a look of disbelief in her eyes. She looked at the youth in front of her in shock – she simply couldn’t understand how he could have such abilities.
“And that’s not all,” Yuan Lin said, “After consuming the medicinal pill, Wan Ting almost became a new person, and regained the vigour of her youth. Haha, if Princess doesn’t believe me, this old man can bring Ting’Er to the palace sometime.”
“Regained the vigour of her youth?” This time, Feng Yu Yao involuntarily took two steps back in shock. This news was simply too astounding. After all, Princess Yu Yao and Yuan Wan Ting were good friends, and she knew about almost everything that had happened to her.
Seeing how shocked his daughter looked, Emperor Feng calmly smiled. After hearing about this, even he was completely shocked. That was why he had hurriedly come to find Xiao Yun to heal his daughter, because only in him could he see hope.
“I haven’t seen big sister Ting’Er in a while. I’ll have to trouble Uncle Yuan to bring her to the palace so we can catch up sometime.” Even though she felt quite shocked, she did not completely believe this, because it was simply too unbelievable. Unless she saw it for herself, it would be difficult for her to accept such a thing.
“In that case, this old man will come and bring Ting’Er now,” Elder Yuan said as he left.
Seeing how respectful Elder Yuan was towards this Seventh Princess, Xiao Yun felt quite surprised.
After all, he was an Essence Core realm cultivator. What need was there to act like this?
Also, Emperor Feng had crippled his own son’s cultivation to save his daughter – why did this seem quite strange?
Even though he felt quite confused, Xiao Yun did not say anything. He just wanted to survive this whole ordeal and join the Heaven Origin Sect.
After everything that had happened, his desire for strength had become even greater. This was because he knew the consequences of not having sufficient strength.
If he was not extremely talented and could not heal illnesses, Emperor Feng definitely wouldn’t’ have helped him.
Even though Feng Yu Yao now viewed Xiao Yun in a new light, she was not in a hurry to ask him to have a look at her illness. Seeing this, Emperor Feng did not say anything either. Over the years, many skilled physicians and people with all sorts of abilities had come to try and heal her, but all had failed.
Gradually, Feng Yu Yao had lost all hope, and her heart became cold towards her illness being cured. In fact, she even began to despise the people who came to heal her.
Every time, she would be filled with hope, but each time, she would be handed the death sentence. This was an immense emotional torture to her, so Emperor Feng knew that unless the person had a high chance of success, his daughter would most likely refuse.
Following this, they started chatting, and did not mention the illness. Seeing this, Xiao Yun felt quite strange, and felt that this Princess’ illness was most likely going to be more troublesome than Yuan Wan Ting’s poison. Otherwise, this father and daughter wouldn’t be acting like this.
Not too long later, a light flashed as Yuan Lin and Yuan Wan Ting walked in.
Yuan Wan Ting was standing with grace and elegance, and her skin shone with a glossy l.u.s.tre, looking incredibly beautiful.
“Are you big sister Ting’Er?” Feng Yu Yao stood on the spot, unable to believe her eyes. The last time she had seen Yuan Wan Ting, her skin had been incredibly wrinkled and dull – how could she have recovered so much?
What’s more, Yuan Wan Ting’s skin looked incredibly smooth and supple, and was full of elasticity!
“What’s going on?” Feng Yu Yao was completely dumbfounded as she glanced over at the youth. “Could it be that he really does have skill?”
“Of course it’s me.” Seeing the Princess’ shocked expression, Yuan Wan Ting felt a hint of delight and walked up.
“Haha, feeling surprised?” Yuan Wan Ting smiled as she held the Princess’ hand.
“It really is you.” Feng Yu Yao blinked with her beautiful eyes which were filled with shock. The Ting’Er who was holding her hand now was like a completely different person to the one who she had seen last time, making her feel as if this was a dream.
Even Emperor Feng was deeply shocked. Even though he had heard this from Yuan Lin, he never thought that Yuan Wan Ting would have recovered to such an extent. It seemed that the medicinal pills that this youth had refined could really bring muscles and skin back to life!
“You’ve become so pretty!” Feng Yu Yao exclaimed after looking at Yuan Wan Ting.
“Hehe,” Yuan Wan Ting laughed in reply.
“Was it really young sir Xiao who healed you?” Feng Yu Yao asked in disbelief.
“That’s right!” Yuan Wan Ting exclaimed as she smiled happily. “Little sister Yu Yao, I’m sure young sir Xiao will be able to cure your illness. That way, we’ll be able to spend more time together in future.”
“Me?” Feng Yu Yao deeply frowned and sighed, saying, “You should know that my condition is much worse than your Moon Demon Poison. I’m afraid that I can’t be cured so easily.”
“Won’t we know after trying?”
Yuan Wan Ting smiled happily and said, “I thought the same thing. After the poison broke out again and again, I was in despair, but once young sir Xiao acted, I was completely healed. Luckily, I didn’t commit suicide back then, and instead cooperated with him. Otherwise, how could I be here today?”
Hearing this, Feng Yu Yao started to change her mind. Since there was a sliver of hope, why not try it out?
“Yao’Er, just let young sir Xiao have a look,” Emperor Feng said.
“I’ll have to trouble young sir Xiao then,” Princess Yu Yao said in a soft voice as she blinked with her long eyelashes.
After seeing Yuan Wan Ting, she had much more faith in this youth. Her recovery was sufficient evidence that this youth was quite extraordinary.
