Chapter 378 New Developments
‘Haha, Min’er probably doesn’t trust her. Well, if I say it’s in her style it is’
Wu Long chuckled as he understood whose hand was it likely that caused Luo Mingyu to hesitate in sharing the information. Shen Min was the most cautious type of all his women, and the last to put her guard down to the newest members of the Dao Family.
As he finished telling her the story of his year-long journey, it was gradually getting time to get up, Feng Yi somewhat shyly looked to the side where some spare bedsheets and bed covers were thrown as they slept on spare ones that were not soaking wet.
“You really didn’t hold back at all, I thought I’d go crazy”
She chuckled, bringing a smile to his face.
“Believe me, I did”
Her eyes widened as she turned and looked him in the eyes and saw he was serious.
“But I might have gone a bit too far, that was your fault though”
“Mine?”
She became flabbergasted by the accusation to which he innocently spread his hands.
“Who told you to make me so excited?”
“You!”
Her eyes narrowed at him, causing a wide grin to cross his face.
“Haha, see? You’re at it again. Do you want a continuation?”
He chuckled and she quickly turned to face away.
“Are you crazy? I’m sure I already am the talk of the camp, but any more time in here and there would be no place for me to go without rumors”
“Haha, who cares?”
“I do”
“Hahaha, hm, by the way, why is there only Royal Army under your command? Where’s the regular army and your family’s troops?”
Wu Long recalled the sight of the banners when he arrived at the camp as he watched her stand up to dress. Her slim and toned body with the curves in right places, her perky breasts slightly swaying and bouncing with her movements as her round and supple ass was propped by long and elegant slender legs, all of it was reflected in his eyes as she did not hide her body as usual.
But her expression darkened at the question as her eyes revealed a sharp look.
“It has been happening for the past half a year. The Royal House has been putting pressure on Father using the incident of our little brother as an excuse. 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚
As a result our family troops have been partially reformed into the Royal Army which has been expanded almost to rival the regular army, and the other part of our troops are now stationed in isolation from each other on the borders to the Tuamei and Tingren Kingdoms, mainly the latter.
Big Brother and I were also separately sent out on demonic beast subjugations to different corners of the country with the Royal Army under command, and only a small squad of Feng family soldiers and officers”
She explained as she washed up and started putting on her clothes.
“Hmm, as I thought, I’ve received reports that there was pressure on General Feng, but did not know it reached this level”
Wu Long frowned as this was clearly keeping General Feng in check by taking both Feng Yi and her older brother hostages.
“Wasn’t your Father an old comrade of the Hero King? He might have given up the throne but he must have some say”
“A sudden illness has kept him bedridden, and both Father and Mingyu’s Father have been denied audience, citing poor health”
She spoke with clear irritation and he nodded.
“It seems I don’t need much to persuade General Feng then” 𝑖𝘦.𝒸𝘰𝘮
He then chuckled as his frown went away, and her olive green eyes looked at him with surptise.
“Persuade? Persuade about what?”
“Well, I’ll be taking his precious daughter away”
Wu Long started and she smiled.
“Hah, it seems I don’t even need to give the answer aloud. That obvious?”
She was not really hiding it but having been seen through from the very beginning about almost every detail including her insecurities and her answer was a little embarrassing. She started to wonder if she was an open book for everyone to read her thoughts or whether he was just that good at reading people.
“Hah, you don’t feel it?”
He then chuckled and after a moment of confused stare, her eyes widened as she felt a link connecting them. She was taught the first layer of the Dual Extremes Infinite Union Art before, but they never got to cultivate.
“The fact you cultivated the technique is the answer. This bond means there is no escaping from me now”
He stood up and approached her as her heart started racing.
She put her hand on her abdomen where she felt the bond with him, as a joyful smile appeared on her face. The wondrous feeling of being connected was even more incredible than what she heard from Luo Mingyu. Who only vaguely described it.
She also knew nothing of the benefits of having this bond before. But when she started feeling the changes her eyes opened up wide again right after she closed them since she was now at the 7th level of the Revolving Qi Realm despite being 3 whole Minor Realms below just yesterday. Not only that but she had crossed the wall between the 6th and 7th realm without even noticing.
“Hah! I was wondering how they were all in Foundation Building Realm, now I see where this comes from”
She chuckled and looked at him but was surprised to see no change in his cultivation realm.
“I am close to advancing, but unfortunately your Yin Qi is not enough for me to cross to the 4th level, so I used it to strengthen my Spiritual Qi”
Wu Long showed a somewhat wry smile. It did hurt for her to hear that her Yin Qi was not that beneficial to him, but her eyes became determined and not discouraged.
“Don’t worry, as your cultivation realms rise your Yin Qi will naturally become stronger, not to mention that there would be many opportunities to strengthen it”
He chuckled as he saw that, quite pleased at the eagerness.
“But, regarding persuading my Father, I don’t think you need to persuade him that much, since he thinks of you so highly he was grumbling at me that I might not be good enough instead the past half a year”
Feng Yi folded her arms as she snorted with incredulousness.
“Hahaha, that is good, since I wasn’t going to ask him about you. During the journey I changed the way I view things, so I started assembling my own people. And it just so happens that your father’s skills caught my eyes the last time we fought”
Wu Long chuckled as her jaw dropped at his words.
“You both are too much!”
Her voice resounded in the tent along with his laughter.

Wu Mengqi was sitting with Song Lingfei at the place the meeting with Wu Long and the Crown Prince was held in the sect. Not far from the gazebo stood two old people. One was Chu Ren who accompanied Song Lingfei and one was Butler Bang who came to accompany Wu Mengqi.
“… Our Young Lady has been known to be the beauty of the Wood Spirit Emprie”
“Her Highness’s beauty was known all of the Azure Eagle Empire”
“Our Young Lady…”
“Her Highness…”
The two bickered like this every time they met, while keeping their faces straight and looking at the ladies. Other servants prefered not to be around them at those times as static electricity was running sparks between the two old men. Neither of them already remembered which remark praising who was that started this, and neither of them cared.
“Our Young Lady-…! Hm? What is it?”
A servant nervously standing not far from them caught Butler Bang’s attention, and two pairs of sharp eyes looked at the poor sod who started trembling from the pressure.
“Um…”
He reported in a weak voice and both old men stared at him for a while as he almost died on the spot, turning to both approach and whisper into the ear of their respective young lady.

Yu Huan sat on the wooden floor of the open corridor, a cup of tea long cold standing not far from her sitting pillow. She was in a courtyard, looking on as Bi Rui was swinging her spear, learning and practicing the new technique Wu Long gave her.
“Haa~”
She sighed heavily, and Bi Rui’s eyes turned in her direction for a moment while not stopping her training.
“What is it?”
She finally asked with a little impatience as it seemed this was not the first sigh she was hearing, which bothered her enough to distract her from the spear art.
“It’s nothing…”
Yu Huan shook her head causing Bi Rui to slightly groan.
“… hey, what kind of person is Mister Wu?”
As she asked, looking down at the snowy ground she noticed a sudden silence, the sounds of spear cutting the airflow completely cut off. As she looked up she saw Bi Rui’s round eyes staring at her with her head turned to her in a frozen pose.
Her eyes full of shock then narrowed down with a smile that gave Yu Huan an uncomfortable feeling.
“Hoho~ Huan’er…”
As she placed her spear vertically and stood straight, seemingly about to speak, there was a knock coming from the the moon gate to the courtyard.
And with Bi Rui’s “Come in”, Wei Lan’s figure showed up as she smiled at the two.
“Wu Long is going to be contacting us through a Long-Distance Communication Formation soon, it seems there are new developments to discuss”
She said and the two looked at each other, and immediately prepared to follow the beauty.
