Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 114 Haitang Duoduo's invitation

"Who is there!"

Sensing the sudden presence of aura in the room, Yan Bingyun drew his sword from the side of the room and stared at his surroundings intently.

"it's me!"

Leng Feibai walked out and said jokingly, "You've recovered well, haven't you? I deliberately revealed a trace of my aura, and you were able to detect it."

Looking at Leng Feibai who suddenly appeared, Yan Bingyun put down his sword and said, "It's you. Are you okay with your injury?"

"Is everything alright?"

Leng Feibai looked around and asked, "Where is Fan Xian?"

Yan Bingyun turned back and continued to look through the account books, saying, "Haitang Duoduo called the man away, saying that the Emperor of Northern Qi wanted to see him about something."

After hearing this, Leng Feibai found a place to sit down and pretended to be curious and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"The inner treasury's account books in Shangjing City, brought back by Fan Xian!"

As Yan Bingyun spoke, he put down the account book and said in a bad tone, "The accounts here don't match the accounts of the Inspection Institute!"

"stop!"

Leng Feibai waved his hand and said, "Don't tell me this yet. Wait until Fan Xian comes back, then you can tell me again. That way you won't have to repeat it again."

Yan Bingyun nodded after hearing this, said nothing more, and continued to look at the account book.

Not long after, Fan Xian rushed back. When he saw Leng Feibai, he was overjoyed and said, "Brother, you are finally out of seclusion. My sister-in-law asked me to bring you something." What was it?

"She said she'd wait for you at the usual place."

Leng Feibai nodded after hearing this and pointed at Yan Bingyun and said, "He has something to tell you."

After saying that, Leng Feibai walked out alone.

"You want to see me now, probably to keep an eye on me and not interfere with Fan Xian's handling of the matter between Shangshan Hu and Shen Zhong."

Leng Feibai sneered, "You may be young, but you have many tricks up your sleeve. However, I've already made a backup plan."

On the street, Leng Feibai bought some food, vegetables and meat in the market, and then immediately set off to a small courtyard where he lived alone outside Shangjing City.

"You're here!" Haitang Duoduo, dressed in green clothes, was cleaning the yard.

"Ok!"

Leng Feibai put down the ingredients in his hand, picked up another broom and helped Haitang Duoduo clean up.

At this moment, the two of them are like a newlywed couple, taking care of their home together.

Haitang Duoduo looked at Leng Feibai and couldn't help but jokingly said, "You came to see me so soon, it seems that your injury is not serious this time?"

"That's because I have many means of recovery."

Leng Feibai was sweeping the floor as he said, "You saw me get beaten by your master."

"Then you ran away and disappeared for five years."

Haitang Duoduo complained, "I also wanted to secretly go to Danzhou to see you, but Master wouldn't let me go, so I had to add a lot of salt to his food."

"How courageous!"

After hearing this, Leng Feibai jokingly said, "Master Ku He didn't whip you with a cane."

"Master is not that violent."

Haitang Duoduo rolled her eyes and said, "At most, they'll punish me by making me do horse stance under a waterfall!"

"You have worked hard."

The two chatted for a while, and Leng Feibai continued, "By the way, why did you call me over here? You didn't just want me to cook for you, did you?"

"I won't hide it from you!"

Haitang Duoduo put down the broom and said, "His Majesty wants to see what Fan Xian is capable of, so I've asked you to keep an eye on you and prevent you from disrupting the situation. But I can't stop you. If you want to leave, I won't stop you."

"Sure enough, the dispute between the Emperor and Empress of Northern Qi is just a pretext to paralyze outsiders, even court officials. The purpose should be to draw out the officials who are disloyal to Your Majesty, right?"

As soon as these words fell, Haitang Duoduo was stunned and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

"I guessed it! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he put down the broom and fetched a bucket of water to wash his hands.

There's no way, he can't say that he has read the script.

Haitang Duoduo couldn't help but feel upset when she saw Leng Feibai's actions.

"Don't worry."

Leng Feibai said calmly, "I have discussed with your master that we should kill Li Yunqian together. So it will not be good for me to betray you." After that, Leng Feibai went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

"Hey!"

Haitang Duoduo quickly chased after him and said, "You're too good at guessing. I don't even dare to say too much to you."

"It's okay, whatever you want!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "As long as the safety of the Fan family is not threatened, I will always be on the same page with you."

"hehe!"

Haitang Duoduo smiled awkwardly and walked to Leng Feibai to help him.

As the sun set, fried eggplant boxes, Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork, braised pork and wild mushroom soup were served on the table one after another.

"Try it and see if I've lost my skills."

Listening to Leng Feibai's words, Haitang Duoduo picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it into her mouth.

"Um"

Haitang Duoduo said with enjoyment, "Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, so delicious. How is this dish made?"

"I'll write you a recipe later."

The two ate for a while longer before Haitang Duoduo raised her head and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to go back? Shen Zhong asked my senior brother and Taoist He to attack together. Fan Xian's strength isn't even at the ninth level yet, so he probably won't stand up to them."

Leng Feibai took two mouthfuls of food, his face calm. "I taught Fan Xian martial arts, and his Qinggong skills are my true inheritance. If he meets a Ninth Rank Upper Class, even if he can't defeat him, he can always escape. I also have a backup plan."

Haitang Duoduo wanted to ask for more details, but Leng Feibai just smiled and said nothing, or changed the subject.

Seeing this, Haitang Duoduo didn't say anything else, but secretly vowed in her heart that she would give him a good beating tonight.

Thinking of this, Haitang Duoduo asked, "Do you want to drink?"

Leng Feibai was stunned after hearing this, "You want to drink?"

"I'll get it!"

Haitang Duoduo was about to stand up but was stopped by Leng Feibai.

"Don't bother, I have some wine."

After saying that, Leng Feibai took out a piece of white cloth from his arms, threw it towards the ground, and two jars of wine immediately appeared in front of him.

Haitang Duoduo's eyes widened as she asked curiously, "Is this also a method you learned from the Immortal Realm?"

Leng Feibai nodded, raised his hand and opened the lid, saying, "This wine is called Hero's Blood. They say that even if a ninth-grade cultivator drinks a jar, they'll be drunk for about half a day."

After leaving Yuncheng, Leng Feibai became interested in this strong liquor, so from time to time he would send his clone to Yuncheng to buy a dozen jars and bring them back to store in the Twelve-story Building.

When Haitang Duoduo heard this, she immediately became interested and poured a bowl to taste it.

"Good wine!"

Haitang Duoduo smiled and said, "It's fragrant and strong, much better than the wine produced by Qingyutang back then."

"If you like, I'll send you a few jars from time to time."

Leng Feibai warned, "But this wine is very easy to get drunk. The first time I drank it, I was dizzy for most of the day."

"You underestimate me, don't you?"

Haitang Duoduo smiled and said, "I am gifted and can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

After saying that, Haitang Duoduo picked up the wine jar in front of her and drank it all in one gulp, a blush immediately creeping up her face.

"Good wine!"

Haitang Duoduo looked at the wine jar in front of Leng Feibai and pretended to snatch it.

Leng Feibai grabbed the jar of wine and drank it all in one gulp, saying jokingly, "It's gone now."

"You! You bad thing."

Haitang Duoduo showed an aggrieved look on her face and said, "Isn't it just a drink? Why are you so angry?"

Looking at Haitang Duoduo's expression, Leng Feibai felt helpless and quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "You're drunk. Come back with me to rest first."

"Who wants to go back with you!"

Haitang Duoduo said unhappily, "I still want to drink. I'll go get it..."

Looking at Haitang Duoduo's expression, Leng Feibai knew she was drunk, so he quickly stepped forward to control her and said, "Be obedient and stop drinking. You should go back and rest now."
