Chapter 695: Chapter 695 The Elders Called an Urgent Summit, But We Spent the Entire Council Under the Desk

Among those who had heard the rumors was a beautiful innkeeper.

She was a woman with long, silky black hair and an exceptionally elegant appearance.

Most of the time, she remained inside her inn, quietly attending to her own affairs and rarely involving herself in the disputes of cultivators. She preferred a peaceful life.

Yet even someone who deliberately avoided trouble could not completely shut themselves off from the outside world. The name "Medicine King Lin Feng" had simply become too loud.

Everywhere she went, she could hear people discussing him.

"Medicine King Lin Feng..." The black-haired woman stood near the window of her inn, her beautiful eyes carrying a trace of curiosity.

"I wonder if you are who I think you are." Her voice was barely a whisper. There was something unusual about the way she said those words.

It was not the curiosity of an ordinary person hearing about a famous expert for the first time. Rather, it sounded as though the name Lin Feng had stirred an old memory within her.

It was hardly a precious memory, yet it had lingered in her mind for years like a phantom, far too deeply ingrained to ever be forgotten. She slowly closed her eyes.

A powerful divine sense spread outward from her body, silently sweeping across the surrounding city. In an instant, countless streets and buildings appeared within her perception.

Her divine sense continued moving until it finally reached the location everyone had been talking about. Lin Feng’s courtyard.

The woman carefully extended her divine sense toward the courtyard, intending to take a closer look at the person who had recently caused such a tremendous commotion.

However...

The moment her divine sense touched the boundaries of the courtyard, it encountered an invisible barrier. Her expression changed slightly.

"Hmm?" She wasn’t surprised. In fact, she had already expected this.

If the rumors were true and the person living inside that courtyard was truly the legendary Medicine King, then it would be strange if his residence could be casually investigated by someone else’s divine sense.

Still, she couldn’t help but narrow her eyes.

"What a powerful restriction." She withdrew her divine sense before it could suffer any damage. There was no need to provoke the owner of the courtyard from afar.

The black-haired woman fell into thought. For most people, the Medicine King was simply an incredibly mysterious expert who had suddenly appeared in the city. For her, however, things were different.

There was something about the works of Lin Feng that felt strangely familiar. Perhaps it was merely a coincidence. Perhaps the rumors had caused her to overthink things. Or perhaps...

Her eyes became slightly deeper.

"There’s only one way to find out." A faint smile appeared on her lips. Since her divine sense could not enter the courtyard, she would simply have to investigate the matter personally.

She straightened her robes and casually stepped away from the window. Her figure blurred. The next instant, she vanished from the inn without leaving behind even the slightest trace.

If anyone had been watching closely, they would have found it difficult to believe that someone had disappeared so quietly. The beautiful innkeeper was already on her way toward Lin Feng.

She wanted to see with her own eyes exactly who this so-called Medicine King was.

More importantly, she wanted to know whether the person inside that courtyard was truly the man she had been thinking about.

And Su Muyao indeed arrived sometime after midnight. She rarely came early.

It wasn’t because she didn’t want to see Lin Feng, but because she still had one important responsibility to take care of before she could leave her daughter, Su Wanwan.

Su Muyao always made sure that Wanwan was already fast asleep before she quietly left the living quarters.

Only after confirming that her daughter was safely asleep could she finally make her way toward Lin Feng. Tonight was no different. When she finally arrived, Lin Feng was already waiting for her.

"Come, Muyao. I’ve been waiting for you." His voice carried a faint smile. Su Muyao immediately gave him a playful look.

"Hmph... You already have so many women surrounding you, Lin Feng. What could this old lady possibly give you that they can’t?"

As she spoke, she casually lifted one hand and brushed a stray lock of her long blonde hair behind her ear. It was an incredibly simple movement.

Yet, combined with her mature beauty and charming expression, it was enough to make Lin Feng’s eyes linger on her for a moment longer than necessary.

Su Muyao noticed his gaze and couldn’t help but smile.

"What are you looking at?"

Lin Feng laughed.

"Oh? Don’t underestimate yourself. I’m sure you can think of one or two things that you can give me." His teasing words immediately caused several women nearby to glance toward them.

Some couldn’t help but roll their eyes. Others quietly muttered under their breath.

"He’s flirting with her right in front of everyone..."

"Does he ever get tired?"

"And look at Lady Su. She’s clearly enjoying it." The jealousy in the room was almost tangible.

Su Muyao, however, merely smiled at Lin Feng’s shameless response.

She had long since become accustomed to his personality, and after spending so much time with him, she had learned that there was little point in trying to win a battle of words against him.

Instead, she stepped closer.

"You really are becoming more shameless."

"And yet you still came."

Lin Feng’s smile widened. Su Muyao’s cheeks immediately gained a faint blush.

"That’s because someone was waiting." Their eyes met. For a moment, the teasing atmosphere between them softened into something warmer.

The two had their own history, their own understanding, and their own way of expressing their affection. There was no need for either of them to explain what they were thinking.

Su Muyao finally smiled and shook her head.

"Come on, then." Lin Feng naturally rose up to the challenge. Wild moans filled the room, followed by an overflowing river of pleasure and essence that drenched everyone involved.
