Novel Full Chapter 403: Back at the City Lord Manor
Li Feng and Yue Lan quickly arrived at the City Lord’s Manor, which was now bustling with activity.
“Oh? Is that the flying ship?” Li Feng murmured, looking up at the massive vessel floating gracefully in the spacious courtyard.
People were busy loading supplies and performing final maintenance checks.
Although it shared the same basic structure as the ship the Elder had used to bring them to the secret realm, this one looked far more intricate and refined.
Its hull emitted a faint, elegant snow-white luster, and the Azure Moon Sect’s insignia was proudly emblazoned on its side.
“It looks imposing,” Li Feng commented.
Beside him, Yue Lan nodded and explained softly, “Even though the person traveling isn’t an Elder, this ship still represents the sect so it has to be worthy of our status. Plus…”
She paused briefly before continuing, “…It also serves to deter any rogue cultivators with ill intentions.”
Li Feng glanced at her and nodded in understanding.
Attacking this flying ship would be no different from slapping the Azure Moon Sect’s face.
Who would dare risk having a Nascent Soul expert dispatched to “retrieve” that face? So only a idiot would attack this ship.
Even Li Feng knew that provoking a Nascent Soul cultivator was simply not worth the trouble.
Although his true strength had already reached the Golden Core realm, if someone asked whether he could fight a Nascent Soul expert right now, he would still answer “no.”
Li Feng had some understanding about the difference between these two realm when he was in the Ruler of the Stars state.
The gap between Golden Core and Nascent Soul might only be one major realm on paper, but in reality, it was like a mortal trying to challenge an immortal.
’Once I get Fen Ziyan back, I definitely need to enter seclusion for a few years…’
He needed to raise his base cultivation to at least the Late Golden Core stage so he could have some confidence in escaping from a Nascent Soul cultivator.
And with dual cultivation involving both Yue Lan and Fen Ziyan, he was confident he could spend that seclusion in bliss while rapidly improving everyone’s cultivation.
Soon, the two of them walked in casually, as if it were their own home… or rather, Li Feng walked in confidently while Yue Lan silently followed behind him.
The guards and servants recognized Li Feng immediately and continued their tasks without interference.
A few even offered respectful bows as the pair passed by and some couldn’t help but give an admire gaze at Yue Lan grace.
Li Feng’s reputation had spread quickly after the recent events in the city.
Everyone now knew that this man was not only a skilled alchemist but also a powerful Foundation Establishment cultivator.
No one here dared to treat him lightly anymore.
As they approached the flying ship, a middle-aged man in elegant black robes stepped forward to greet them.
It was Captain Shan.
“Alchemist Li,” the man said with a polite smile, cupping his fists.
However, he couldn’t help stealing a glance at the veiled beauty standing beside this lecherous alchemist.
’Damnit, why does this guy always attract such top tier beauties? Is there something special about him—’
Just then, Captain Shan paused as he recalled the report from his subordinates.
After hearing that Li Feng had broken through to Foundation Establishment, he had subconsciously labeled this man… a monster in his mind.
Seeing the polite Captain Shan, Li Feng smiled and asked, “Where is the City Lord? I’d like to discuss some matters with her.”
Captain Shan’s expression turned slightly awkward.
He hesitated for a moment before replying, “The City Lord is currently in the main hall handling some urgent documents. Should I inform her that you’re here?”
Hearing this, Li Feng waved his hand casually. “No need to rush her. Let her finish her work first. I’ll wait for her in the guest room myself.”
Without waiting for a reply, Li Feng turned and headed straight toward the main hall, with Yue Lan following quietly behind him.
Captain Shan stared at their backs for a moment, then shook his head with a helpless smile.
“That guy… he really treat this place like this is his own manor,” he muttered under his breath.
Still, duty was duty.
Even though Li Feng had told him not to bother Lan Suyao, Captain Shan turned and walked quickly toward the main hall.

Inside the main hall, City Lord Lan Suyao sat behind an ornate desk, reviewing a stack of jade slips with a focused frown.
When the door opened and Captain Shan entered, she looked up.
“City Lord,” Captain Shan cupped his fists and reported respectfully, “Alchemist Li has arrived. He wishes to discuss some matters with you and has gone straight to the guest hall to wait.”
Lan Suyao’s hand paused mid-air.
She couldn’t help but wonder why this man had returned so soon.
’Don’t tell me he wants to dual cultivate again?’
A strange glint flashed across her cold, beautiful face before she quickly composed herself.
“I understand. You may leave.”
Captain Shan bowed and quietly retreated.
After the door closed, Lan Suyao let out a soft sigh and continued handling her paperwork.
As City Lord, the volume of documents she dealt with daily was considerable, yet with her powerful cultivation, she found the task neither difficult nor tiresome.
However, this time her eyes scanned the jade slips noticeably faster, and her signing became much quicker.
Deep down, she was eager to free up some time to… dual cultivate with Li Feng again/
Soon, she finished the final jade slip with a decisive last approval.
Then she stood up, adjusted her robes and walked gracefully toward the guest hall, her steps carrying a subtle trace of anticipation.

Lan Suyao walked gracefully through the corridors as servants and guards bowed respectfully.
She merely nodded lightly in acknowledgment, her usual cold dignity on full display.
No one noticed that the proud City Lord was walking… just a little faster than usual.
Soon, she arrived at the guest hall.
A seductive smile curved her lips as she pushed the door open and stepped inside.
But the moment she entered, Lan Suyao froze, blinking in confusion.
There,
Li Feng was lounging comfortably on a wide chair with his legs spread wide.
But between his thighs, a veiled woman… knelt obediently.
Her head moved rhythmically back and forth as wet, lewd sounds echoed through the quiet room.
Slurp…
Slurp…
Li Feng currently wore a lewd, thoroughly satisfied smile.
When he noticed Lan Suyao, his grin widened.
“Ah, you finished faster than I expected.”
“…?”
