Chapter 1221: Wind Valley (18)
"Father, what are you doing here?"
Feng Yuqing struggled to sit up. His face was just as pale as before. "Also, there are so many people..."
"Qing’er."
The Valley Lord’s heart leaped when he saw that the man had opened his eyes. He then appeared in front of the bed in a flash and clasped Feng Yuqing’s hand in a tight grip as he asked in surprise, "Are you alright? I thought you were..."
"Father." Feng Yuqing smiled. "I’m sorry, I had wanted to restore my powers so I asked Great Master Gu Ruoyun to cure me. I did not inform you of that and I’m really sorry, I won’t do it again."
The Valley Lord was shocked and stared at the man in front of him with disbelief.
Is this really my hedonistic and infamous son?
Why do I feel as if he has turned into another person...
"After consuming the Resurrection Pill, your past injuries have now been healed."
The Valley Lord was still in a daze when a clear and cold voice slowly rang out, "Furthermore, your powers will be fully restored but it will take some time and you need to slowly regulate it! You can now try your luck at cultivating."
When Feng Yuqing heard this, he quickly crossed his legs and tried to regulate his aura.
Once he felt the surge of spiritual energy in his body, his expression changed from astonishment to joy. His voice was filled with excitement as he said, "I can really cultivate again, Great Master Gu Ruoyun, thank you so much! If it were not for you, I would never have had this opportunity."
The Valley Lord was even more excited in comparison with Feng Yuqing. After all, his son’s injuries have been his greatest heartache over the years. However, he never expected his son’s powers to be restored one day.
"Great Master Gu," He rose to his feet, faced Gu Ruoyun and said, "I have treated you rudely, please don’t take it to heart. You’ve helped Qing’er which means that you’ve helped all of Wind Valley. I will remember this great kindness for the rest of my life and I will never forget it."
Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly. "Fate had brought Feng Yuqing and me together which was why I had saved him. This is nothing compared to what he’s given me."
If it had not been for Feng Yuqing, her spiritual beasts would never have been so fortunate as to receive the inheritance.
Her power would never have grown so quickly either.
"Lady Gu."
Feng Xiaoxiao quickly steadied her emotions before she slowly approached Gu Ruoyun. She then smiled and said, "Ever since the first time we’ve met, I knew that you were not a simple woman. I never thought that Yuqing’s body would be restored to health thanks to your treatment. If there’s anything that you need in the future, let me know. I will go through water and tread on fire without hesitation!"
"Thank you." Gu Ruoyun chuckled softly. "There’s no need for that. By the way, I had run into a few assassins yesterday. It’s a good thing that a powerful cultivator had happened to pass by and saved me. As long as Wind Valley doesn’t try to take my life like those assassins, I am already grateful enough."
Feng Xiaoxiao’s expression changed drastically when she heard the implication in Gu Ruoyun’s words. However, her face quickly went back to normal with a warm and breezy smile on her pretty and delicate features.
"Lady Gu, you are Wind Valley’s benefactor, why would Wind Valley bite the hands that feed us? You won’t need to worry too much about that!"
"Xiaoxiao." The Valley Lord was very satisfied with Feng Xiaoxiao’s words. He then nodded and said, "As the Young Valley Lord of Wind Valley, you must take good care of Great Master Gu throughout her stay here! She must never be allowed to suffer any grief."
