Chapter 750: Chapter 750 Sending You Away Chapter 750: Chapter 750 Sending You Away Tang Wenji complained about Feng Jun under her breath, but she could genuinely feel how much this “Yoga” had helped her.
Originally, she had been under a malicious restriction, her vitality somewhat languishing, and when the restriction was lifted, it had added some injuries as well.
However, after a session of Yoga, her vitality was fully replenished, her injuries healed, and her Inner Qi had greatly improved; she even faintly felt the same surging and jubilation as when she had just broken through to the Middle-Stage Martial Master level.
She believed that if she continued practicing this way, she might consider making a push for High-Rank Martial Master in about a month.
Of course, she was being a bit too wishful in thinking this; not every Yoga session could have the effect of a breakthrough.
No matter how you looked at it, she was certain this must be the legendary “Double Cultivation.” How had it turned into practicing Yoga in his mouth?
In fact, this wasn't due to Feng Jun's wicked sense of humor–well, even if it was a factor, it was only a small one.
His main consideration was that Double Cultivation involved Cultivation Techniques; once this was poked at, would he give Tang Wenji a Cultivation Technique?
It would make sense for him to give her a Cultivation Technique since he had given one to Sister Hong and Feng Jing, but the problem was that she was still the Little Celestial Master of Maoshan, with many Maoshan disciples behind her.
What if she passed the Cultivation Technique on to others? Was he really going to act to reclaim those techniques?
So it was better to tell her that this was just Yoga; he would guide her, and she just needed to pose and follow along–that's it.
The two cuddled up, and in the mountain during springtime, with night rain falling, there was a slight chill of dampness.
In such an environment, after just completing exercise, to empty one's mind and embrace for warmth was truly blissful.
When midnight arrived, Tang Wenji fell into a deep sleep, but Feng Jun tiptoed out of the blanket, planning to return home.
He had just risen when the Little Celestial Master opened her sleepy eyes, “Are you… leaving now?”
Feng Jun smiled, patted her cheek, bent down, and kissed her cheeks softly, “Alright, I need to go console them; in a while, we'll see if we can arrange for you to join the back courtyard.”
Actually, bringing her into the courtyard was just a matter of his saying so, but he felt he shouldn't be too selfish and should respect the opinions of the other women.
Besides, he felt he needed to observe the Little Celestial Master for a while. It was no longer the early days of his power when he could take in anyone he found.
Tang Wenji sighed softly, her eyes gradually cleared, and she looked at him deeply and softly spoke, “How does the Shanbei Xintianyou go, the one with Wang Gui and Li Xiangxiang… Such a good place, yet unable to keep you…”
Feng Jun laughed; the Little Celestial Master's affections were indeed intense. It was their first time, so she was slightly reserved, but to be able to sing such lyrics showed she was rather open-minded.
The rest of the night passed without a word. The next day, light rain still pattered down, and Feng Jun rushed to the Bamboo Forest early in the morning.
Tang Wenji had already awoken, had tidied up the bedding, but not the rain shelter and camp bed. She was sitting on the camp bed, meditating and regulating her breath.
Feng Jun brought her steaming hot spicy soup and buns, “The weather is not great, so have something warm, you had a hard day yesterday.”
The Little Celestial Master rolled her eyes at him, “At least you have a conscience, and there are buns… I thought I could only eat malatang.”
The six-yuan malatang had also become a famous joke; hearing it, Feng Jun laughed, “I also have hot soy milk, want some?”
“If you give it to me, I'll drink,” the Little Celestial Master said with a smile, her eyes full of passion, “In broad daylight like this, dare you give it to me?”
“Forget it, considering your wounds haven't healed yet, I'll let you off the hook,” Feng Jun laughed heartily, then brought out a cup, toothbrush, toothpaste, and mineral water, “Brush your teeth, and then we'll eat.”
He thought he had been quite secretive the previous night, but when both Gazi and Gao Qiang had gone off to rest, Li Shishi naturally asked who else was on guard at the valley; as she asked, Yang Yuxin was sitting beside her.
When they mentioned that Feng Jun had gone to the valley, everyone looked around and noticed the Little Celestial Master was also missing; they guessed what had happened.
While Feng Jun was calling the Little Celestial Master to breakfast, a mile away, Yang Yuxin and her daughter Gu Jiahui stood silently under an umbrella, watching this scene, and Gu Jiahui held a pair of binoculars in her hand.
“Alas,” she sighed helplessly, “Mom, Brother Jun is… perhaps a bit too fickle.”
“How many truly capable men are not fickle?” Yang Yuxin sighed profoundly, but couldn't help recalling that drizzly night in Jin City; for a moment, she felt a bit feverish, regretting only that time could not rewind.
She told her daughter, “In fact, it's the same for women… take Wu Zetian for instance, didn't she have countless admirers?”
“In the end, once you reach that position, the issue of being fickle doesn't exist anymore. The key is that many people don't reach that position yet already have that problem… thus, it's very important to see oneself clearly,”
Gu Jiahui's eyes twinkled, “So you're saying, if I truly reach that position…”
“Then you can certainly do as you please,” Yang Yuxin spoke with a smile, knowing her daughter was always ambitious, not surprised by this kind of remark, “But if you haven't reached the level of Wu Zetian, it's still important for a girl to pay some attention to her reputation.”
Gu Jiahui raised her head proudly and declared, “Once I reach that position, I will have him in my sight… he can only be mine!”
It goes without saying who this “him” is in her mouth.
You really do dare to dream~ Yang Yuxin was somewhat speechless. You reach Feng Jun's position?
Let alone catching up with him, if you, little lady, could catch up with Zhang Caixin, I, your mother, could wake up laughing from a dream.
But kids, they always need to be allowed to dream… what if it comes true?
So she smiled and said, “Then you work hard. But right now, what you need to consider is how to send that girl from Kunlun away.”
Xiao Xiang was brought to the villa yesterday, and after some simple treatment, her face was scratched with multiple wounds by Hua Hua, and her clothes were slashed into strips, making her look like a typical beggar.
Feng Jun initially intended to kill her, but since Li Chonggu died in her stead, she cherished the hard-won chance to live and behaved quite well in the villa.
And Feng Jun handed over the matter of dealing with this girl to Gu Jiahui.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiahui also frowned with worry. The cause of the matter was indeed triggered by her. If she had simply killed Xiao Xiang, there wouldn't have been so much trouble, but she acted a bit too slowly, and Li Chonggu jumped out to take the fall.
And because she had pleaded for Li Chonggu, the situation had developed into this.
In all honesty, letting Li Chonggu go back to report would seem more reliable. Xiao Xiang, on the other hand, did not seem very trustworthy.
Gu Jiahui hesitated and then spoke, “Mom, can you arrange for a military vehicle to escort her back to Xiqing Mountain?”
Yang Yuxin laughed, “Heh, sure, you're even calculating your mother now.
In fact, in her eyes, this request wasn't a big deal. Her late husband had done similar things in the past, and even before that, during the era of the Southwest Quartet, the Yang family had operated in the same way.
Doing this now would mean more considerations, but since her daughter had suggested it, she wasn't planning to dampen her spirits.
But as for Funiu, she wouldn't need to step in at all; a simple message from Xu Leigang would be enough. What she needed to do was to have the troops in the west help with the reception.
Xiao Xiang had no idea what the connection was between Luohua Manor and the military. She only knew that after staying in Luohua Manor for two nights, she was stuffed into a military-licensed vehicle early on the third day, headed west.
There were three people in the car, all in plain clothes, but she vaguely sensed that the two in front were soldiers, whereas the woman beside her probably was not.
She mustered up the courage to ask where they were taking her, but the two people in front stayed silent; the impatient woman beside her said, “No more questions. You'll know when we get there… Speak up again, and see if I don't send you back.”
The military vehicle didn't travel very quickly, stopping frequently, and stayed at a military guesthouse at night. Xiao Xiang didn't even dare to utter a word; it wasn't that she didn't trust the soldiers, but she was very suspicious that Luohua Manor had ties to the military.
On the third day, she finally understood the direction the military vehicle was heading.
By noon on the fourth day, the car simply dropped her off, returned her ID, mobile phone, and left her with five thousand cash.
Xiao Xiang's clothes from when she came down the mountain were already rags, and everything else had been confiscated by Luohua Manor, including two talismans. The clothes she was wearing now were provided by the women at the manor.
She originally had over ten thousand cash and two bank cards on her, with about a hundred thousand in them for emergencies.
But all those things had been seized by Luohua Manor. The five thousand in cash she now had was not enough to compensate her.
Yet, the Little Celestial Master Tang Wenji had clearly told her, if you from Kunlun take others' belongings without a word, others won't notify you when taking yours–don't be dissatisfied; this bad practice was started by your family first.
Therefore, for Luohua Manor to leave her five thousand now was considered fair treatment.
Having arrived at this place, Xiao Xiang felt a bit braver, but she didn't dare to run off and instead asked hesitantly, “What are you going to do?”
“Go contact your people,” said the woman indifferently. “You can tell the truth or not, it's up to you.”
Realizing she was truly free, Xiao Xiang wished she could just run away; her days had been so harrowing.
She suppressed her inner fear and asked quietly, “Who exactly are you?”
The woman answered unruffled, “If you have any questions, ask in Zhengyang, someone is waiting for you there… Oh, and don't make everyone wait too long.”
After finishing her words, she smiled confidently, turned to get in the car, and left just like that.
Leaving Xiao Xiang standing there, stunned.
