Chapter 38: Huang Feiyan is Cultivating
Mingyan stood up and walked to the door, his hand gently touching the wood.
He could feel it trembling slightly as he intended to open it. It was reacting, but it seemed to be stuck, and he couldn’t open it.
“What was this room used for before?” he asked.
“This… since the laws of space are damaged, I’m not sure which room this is.” Huang Feiyan walked to his side, hesitated for a moment, then said, “But there was never a room that couldn’t be opened before.”
“Could it be because of the laws of space, so it suddenly can’t be opened?” he asked.
“I don’t think so. If it were a problem with the laws of space, the other rooms would be like this too. And each room’s space is relatively independent. If it was affected, it should have just disappeared.” She said, “Hmm…”
She carefully examined the door but found no clues. In the end, she couldn’t determine which room it used to be.
“Forget it if we can’t open it,” he said. If Huang Junru had sealed it, there must be a reason, right?
He returned to his seat. Huang Feiyan, seeing this, pondered for a moment, then released her spiritual energy. She felt a strong resistance, a familiar feedback of spiritual energy.
This aura, it’s so familiar, but it’s not from Mother… it’s more like… Second Aunt?
Did Second Aunt seal this room?
Huang Feiyan’s hand retracted, and a ridiculous thought suddenly appeared in her mind. Could Second Aunt be hiding inside?
Her second aunt had always shown a special fondness for Mingyan. She must have had a hand in her mother’s decision to have her and Mingyan get together.
And her second aunt’s fondness for him… Huang Feiyan wondered if it was just her imagination, but she felt she was dispensable in their relationship.
Her second aunt had even said that if she wasn’t willing, she would be happy to take her place…
How could she say such a thing? Her second aunt was hundreds of years older than him… A half-step Human Gateway cultivator becoming Dao companions with him would be incredibly strange to outsiders, wouldn’t it?
And why her?
So, Huang Feiyan suspected that her second aunt’s feelings for Mingyan might not be so simple.
Although she was grateful to her second aunt for persuading her mother to finally decide to let her and Mingyan be together, her second aunt couldn’t be so reckless.
Huang Feiyan thought for a moment, then felt her idea was indeed quite ridiculous. How could her second aunt be hiding in here? If she knew her second aunt was hiding inside, her mother would have told her long ago. And they had left immediately afterwards. Her second aunt wouldn’t have had time to catch up.
Huang Feiyan sighed in relief. Although it would be nice to have a half-step Human Gateway cultivator protecting them, it would be even better if it were her aunt. Her second aunt…
Her second aunt being close to Mingyan was not a good thing.
The carriage’s speed was much faster than Mingyan’s walking. Although it couldn’t reach the speed of a Human Gateway Realm cultivator, it should at least have the speed of a Divine Seal Realm cultivator.
Speaking of which, Mingyan had already reached the Qi Sea Realm. After that would be the Divine Gate, Tai Yi, Divine Seal, Rotating Core, and Human Gateway. It seemed the distance to saving his sister wasn’t too far, but the gap between each realm was like a chasm, how could it be easily crossed? Even a peerless genius like his master had taken hundreds of years to reach the Human Gateway Realm.
Mingyan calmed his mind and began to cultivate. The spiritual energy in the carriage was quite abundant, and it could absorb the spiritual energy of the places it passed through.
But at the moment, the abundant spiritual energy was not of much use to him. It was just that being in a place with dense spiritual energy was pleasant.
Night fell. Feng Shiyi was already sound asleep. Huang Feiyan was also cultivating not far from him. She hadn’t entered her room.
As he was cultivating, a familiar female voice suddenly echoed in his mind. “Mingyan, come here for a moment.”
He opened his eyes, a little confused.
Was it his imagination? How did he hear Huang Junyi’s voice?
How could his temptress sister be here?
This was the Southern Continent.
“Don’t speak. Don’t let Feiyan know. I’m in that sealed room. Come here quietly.”
Her voice sounded again. This time, he was sure it wasn’t his imagination. Huang Junyi was really here. His temptress sister was in the carriage. She had said, in that sealed room?
He was surprised. When did his temptress sister come? Had she entered before Huang Junru gave him the carriage? Or had she caught up?
He hesitated for a moment, then quietly stood up. To avoid startling the cultivating Huang Feiyan, he even used the Moon Shadow Scripture to conceal himself.
The Moon Shadow Scripture was still very powerful. Not only did the meditating Huang Feiyan not feel anything, but even Feng Shiyi, who was close to him, had no reaction. He sighed in relief, then slowly walked to the sealed door. As soon as he reached out his hand, the door suddenly opened, and he felt himself being pulled inside.
Then, the door closed silently again. A half-step Human Gateway cultivator could easily hide her tracks from them. The two people outside knew nothing. One was meditating peacefully, the other was sleeping soundly. They both thought he was still there, completely unaware that he had entered a secret world within the room.
“Sister, how are you here?” he was very surprised.
“Surprised?” Huang Junyi wore a red dress, her smile seductive, her figure fiery. She was very close to him, her body exuding a rich yet not cloying fragrance that went straight to his head, very captivating.
“Of course I’m surprised… But why did you have to hide from Feiyan?” he smiled. With a half-step Human Gateway cultivator with them, he felt much more at ease.
He also had the Emperor-level artifact of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sacred Land. A half-step Human Gateway cultivator could wield it much more powerfully than he could.
“Because… I wanted to give Feiyan a surprise. When you encounter danger, and I suddenly jump out, wouldn’t Feiyan be very happy?” Huang Junyi smiled, taking his hand, her soft, jade-like palm caressing the back of his, then moving up his arm and into his sleeve. He flinched, and she giggled, letting go.
“That’s true…” But why did you have to let me in?
“Did Auntie ask you to follow us, Sister?” Mingyan felt a little strange. Feiyan’s mother he called Auntie, and Feiyan’s second aunt he called Sister. This seniority was too messy.
“Of course not. I came on my own. How could I be at ease with you two traveling in the Southern Continent?” Huang Junyi’s cheeks puffed up slightly. “Do you think I don’t care about you?”
