Chapter 25 - Ling Yu's sincere apology

"You … "Very good!"

As if he was intimidated by her gaze, Ling Yue immediately regained his senses, coughed lightly, and stiffly threw down those three words.

However, from his gaze, Yue Feng Qing could tell that the reason why Ling Yue had been so polite to her in the past was purely because of Patriarch Ling. But now, she could feel that Ling Yue truly admired her!

Just let them in first. Remember, get the Grandpa to get some spirit replenishing pills for Ling Yu to replenish her Qi and blood. Of course, if there is a pill that can quickly heal wounds, it would be best to bring it along as well. Otherwise, scars might even appear on my cute little cousin's body.

With a faint smile, she tossed down those words and lazily sat on a nearby chair, pouring herself a cup of water.

Sparkling sweat dripped from her forehead all the way down to her collarbone, causing her snow-white skin to become even whiter and more tender. On her clear and bright face, a smile that was like autumn water lightly floated.

At this moment, a cold and detached aura emanated from her body, causing people to be unable to shift their gazes away from her.

"Yes."

After a while, Ling Yue finally replied and turned to call for the people outside.

Very quickly, Old Man Ling, Ling Yu's mother and the others all rushed in.

Ling Yu's mother wasn't dissatisfied with her this time, she immediately rushed to Ling Yu's side the moment she entered the door. Only when she saw that Ling Yu's complexion had improved, did she heave a sigh of relief, pursing her lips slightly, as she looked in her direction with a complicated expression.

With regards to this, Yue Feng Qing turned a blind eye, lazily got up, and said to Old Man Ling: "Grandpa, he has already been saved. I will be returning to my room first. Ling Yue will tell you what to do next."

With that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, just at this moment, Ling Yu came out from the bed with a rather weak and anxious voice, "Princess Cousin Sister …"

Just as he was about to leave, he stopped in his tracks. Yue Feng Qing frowned but did not turn around.

"I'm sorry!"

Although Ling Yu's tone was not high, she could feel the sincerity in her tone.

It seemed like this little girl was now truly clear-headed.

Yue Feng Qing's lips curled up into a smile, as she turned her head, raising her brows at the pale Ling Yu: "Let bygones be bygones, I have never liked seizing on bygones. In the future, when you make any decisions, you must first use your brain, and don't be used as a gun by others."

Throwing those words down, Yue Feng Qing revealed a smile in his eyes, and turned to leave in a good mood.

As for Ling Yu, who was on the bed, after hearing her words, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she actually revealed a smile and secretly bit her lips.

When the old man saw his two cousins change their previous hostile relationship, his mood immediately turned good. He laughed heartily as he asked Ling Yue how he was going to prepare for the future.

The old lady's cheerful laughter sounded out in Yue Feng Qing's ears outside the courtyard, and a smile flashed past her eyes.

This result seemed to be pretty good!

"That girl's nature is not bad, she was just instigated by others. Now that that girl is awake, I'm afraid the person who instigated her won't be able to sit still, right?"

Seeing that she was in a good mood, the other party actually took the initiative to start a conversation about this matter.

However, Yue Feng Qing did not reply her, because when she just walked out of the courtyard, she smelt a strange fragrance once again!

This time, she was sure that this fragrance was exactly the same as the one coming from the mysterious person who snuck into her room that night!

Who was that person? He had been hiding by her side the entire time without doing anything to harm her. It was truly strange!

Suspicion flashed past her eyes, Yue Feng Qing couldn't help but to look around, but she was still unable to see where the mysterious man was hiding, causing her to feel uneasy.

In his mind, he saw that she hadn't responded to his question: "Girl, what's wrong?"

"Contrary, your mental strength is quite strong. Can you try to help me check if there are any strange people around?" With his doubt, Yue Feng Qing frowned and rushed forward.

After listening to her words, he was silent for a second, before muttering to himself, "Alright."

With these words, several silver streaks of light flew out from between her eyebrows and quickly disappeared into the night sky.

About a minute later, he sent a sound transmission to her, "Girl, what are you suspecting? There aren't any strange people around! "

"Impossible!" Yue Feng Qing's expression turned serious as he said, "I can clearly smell that familiar scent. Someone must have been out in the yard just now!"

"Even if it's the same fragrance, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's the same person. You must understand that in this world, there are just so many smokes. Even if there's a similar smell, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's the same person." He shook his head as he spoke, and did not continue to stay on this topic, but said to her instead, "Hey, that Ling Yue brat, her talent is extremely high. If she really stays in Ling Family forever, her achievements will definitely be limited in the future."

"You saw it too!"

When Ling Yue was mentioned, Yue Feng Qing was immediately excited, he laughed and raised his eyebrow, "That Ling Yu girl obviously has feelings for Ling Yue, and Ling Family still has the support of Grandpa, once Grandpa falls, I'm afraid that it will be pointed at Ling Yu and Ling Yue."

"So?" asked Ni Yan in a soft voice as she picked at her peach blossom eyes.

"I plan to discuss this with Grandpa tomorrow. I think, if Grandpa gave the order for him to be responsible for protecting Ling Yu and I, he probably wouldn't refuse."

Thinking about it, Yue Feng Qing said softly.

"So you already had a plan. Then I won't do much." Ni Yan muttered to herself before voluntarily cutting off her connection with him.

During this time with Inverse, she had successfully returned to her room.

This night, it was the first time she seriously started to condense the star cycle in her body according to the cultivation methods of this world.

To be honest, her mental strength was much stronger than people of the same level, which was why the step of refining star cycle had become so easy.

However, the speed at which she condensed stellar force did not mean that she could absorb them quickly. Therefore, if she wanted to quickly absorb and store the stellar force, she still needed to open up the meridians in her body from the inside out using the star cycle's power.

Only by opening up all the meridians in her body would she be able to truly store and condense stellar force, turning them into condensed moon-shaped spots of light and storing them in her dantian.

If she were to succeed in doing so, it would mean that she possessed sufficient strength to attempt to break through the threshold of Star arcanists s.

After sorting out the information, she immediately sat cross-legged on the bed and closed her eyes, entering the state of Internal Inspection. She began to try and use the star cycle to open up the meridians in her body.
