The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 62 The Loyal Old Butler

The next day, the sun was shining brightly.

It seems that the heavens have no awareness of autumn at all, and just keep letting the sun shine brighter, overdrawing the heat energy stored up for hibernation.

On the outskirts of Sunset City, in an earthen courtyard...

“Thank you so much, my two benefactors. Your kindness is beyond measure. Please accept our bow…”

An eighty-year-old mother, supported by a kind-hearted man in his thirties, was about to bow and thank a handsome young man and a pretty young woman standing in front of her.

"No, no, you're making us feel terrible!"

With quick reflexes, Leng Ning Shuang stepped forward and lifted Wang Tiezhu and his mother, then gracefully retreated to the side of the man in black.

"Old man, this is just a small token of my appreciation. Please have Brother Tiezhu accept it on my behalf!"

Feng Ling smiled faintly and casually tossed out a golden card.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

After secretly giving instructions to Wang Tiezhu, the two transformed into a streak of light and disappeared without a trace.

"Son, this item is so valuable... quickly take it and return it to its owner."

Seeing that the other party left behind a gold card that she never dared to dream of in her life and then ran away, the Queen Mother was extremely anxious.

"Mom, everyone else is flying high. With my mediocre skills, how could I possibly catch up?"

Wang Tiezhu's eyes gleamed as he gazed at the distant horizon with an incredibly honest expression, his conviction unwavering: Even if I could fly, I wouldn't chase after him!
Feng Ling just told him that his mother has at most three more years to live, and that he shouldn't worry about making a living. The 100,000 gold coins in his gold card haven't been touched and are enough for a lifetime. He just needs to find a peaceful place to live and stay with his mother.

"Sigh, may good people be rewarded!"

Upon hearing this, Wang's mother sighed and, supported by Wang Tiezhu, entered the house.

*****
Within the nine layers of clouds, two figures hurriedly headed towards the City Lord's Mansion...

"Junior Brother Feng, I didn't say anything nonsense last night, did I?" Leng Ning Shuang frowned and turned her head to look at the extraordinary man wielding the spear.

"No... It's nothing more than saying things like 'I hate someone,' 'He's a bastard,' and so on!" Feng Ling raised an eyebrow slightly, a smile appearing on his lips.

"Um, did you hear the name clearly?"

Leng Ning Shuang's heart trembled slightly, her face very serious as she solemnly looked at Feng Ling.

If they hear this, that would be terrible!

Given that person's brutal methods, it might bring trouble to Feng Ling, which is not what she wants to see!

"This... I don't think so!"

Feeling uneasy under his gaze, Feng Ling quickly waved his hand with an awkward laugh, saying with a strange look, "I was just joking, I didn't expect to actually run into him!?"

"Huh!? Stop right there, you dare to lie to me?"

Watching the figure slip away quietly while she was thinking, Leng Ning Shuang suddenly realized what was happening, gritted her teeth in anger, and flashed after it.

"Senior sister, please go easy on her!"

Feng Ling let out a strange cry.

His scalp tingled, and his eyes trembled as he watched a purple streak of light brush past his eyebrows...

"Hmph, if you dare to tease your senior sister again, I'll skin you alive!"

Leng Ning Shuang held her head high and proudly stepped forward to pinch Feng Ling's hand, then walked ahead of Feng Ling, reverting to her usual aloof and unapproachable demeanor.

However, given her current icy state, it seems like a massive avalanche could occur at any moment!
At least, that's how she is in front of Feng Ling!

However, starting last night when they were drinking and singing and cuddling intimately, a subtle intimacy developed between them: it was hard to explain or define.

"Huh?" Feng Ling was dumbfounded as he stared at the beautiful figure speeding away ahead.

Her personality change happened way too fast, it's like a dream, leaving you in a daze.

"Oh, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!"

Feng Ling sighed, helplessly catching up quickly, and called out loudly, "Senior Sister, you've gone past the Sun residence!"

The graceful figure riding a sword ahead suddenly paused, calmly stopped, and turned back.

Seeing that Feng Ling was forcing a smile, she gave him another cold snort and a cold look.

...In front of the gate of the Sun residence.

Zhang Yi and Qi Cheng waited at the gate.

"It's almost noon, why haven't they arrived yet?"

Zhang Yi and Qi Cheng stared straight ahead, waiting calmly, while Wang Tao and the others didn't have such patience.

If it weren't for Qi Cheng waiting for them, they wouldn't have come to do such a thankless task.

Didn't you see that Ms. Hu has incongruously set up a silk parasol at the front door?
"coming!"

Zhang Yi and Qi Cheng seemed to sense something and tacitly looked up at the bright, clear sky.

"Whoosh, whoosh..." Before the words were finished, a man and a woman appeared in front of everyone.

When everyone's gaze fell upon the stunningly beautiful woman, their eyes lit up, and a sense of suffocation washed over them.

"Are you... Miss Miaoshuang?"

Zhang Yixi couldn't help but step forward, cup his hands in greeting, and in his heart, a storm was raging. He was already deeply enamored with the woman's beauty and considered her a celestial being.

"Cold, cold..."

Qi Cheng, Wang Tao, and the other two were dumbfounded when they saw the ice queen next to Feng Ling. They stammered and bowed, "Greetings, Senior Sister Leng!"

"Brother, you two know each other?"

Zhang Yi glanced at Qi Cheng in surprise, thinking: Senior Sister Leng? Could she be... Leng Ning Shuang, one of the twin goddesses of the Jade Purity Sect?

The twin goddesses of the Jade Purity Sect refer to the Ice and Snow Goddess Leng Ning Shuang, who is pure, innocent, and ethereal.

Within a thousand miles of the entire Jade Purity Sect, their names are known to almost everyone.

However, few people were truly fortunate enough to see her face, and most of them only glimpsed a corner of her beauty from surviving portraits, rather than seeing her in person.

"Ahem... Senior Sister, please forgive me!"

Seeing Leng Ningshuang's icy gaze, Wang Tao and the other two felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and they all shivered. They quickly apologized for their slip of the tongue.

In the end, they still called her "senior sister"!

Leng Ning Shuang was utterly speechless!
She ignored the three of them, coldly staring at Zhang Yi, who was bowing with his hands clasped, for a few breaths before finally responding with a soft "hmm".

"Uh..." This made Zhang Yi extremely embarrassed: I don't have any grudge against her, but compared to last night, her change is too great!

However, Qi Cheng and the others did not feel uncomfortable, after all, they were already used to this cold and aloof attitude.

"Young City Lord, be careful!"

The old steward of the Sun family, Uncle Fu, was startled. He stepped in front of Zhang Yi, staring intently at Leng Ning Shuang, and said warily, "This woman is a tenth-rank cultivator!"

It seems that he doesn't care about the identity of strangers, only whether they are friends or foes.

In that situation just now, if the other party's cold gaze had contained hostility, Zhang Yi would probably have died no less than a hundred times over. How could he not be shocked!

"Elder Fu, please don't be rude! This is a distinguished guest I invited to treat Yu Yang!"

Looking at the loyal old butler, Zhang Yi felt very gratified, but he pretended to be slightly angry and spoke, for fear of leaving a bad impression on the woman in front of him.

"Yes...this old servant obeys!"

The unassuming old butler, whom we call Old Fu, glanced sideways at Zhang Yi and slowly retreated, but the wariness in his eyes could not be dispelled.

Seeing this, Leng Ningshuang raised an eyebrow and secretly transmitted her voice to Feng Ling: "Junior brother, you must be more careful. This old steward also has a hidden tenth-level cultivation. I'm afraid he is the most powerful person in the Sun family!"

"If an enemy comes, we will stop him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth!"

Feng Ling replied telepathically, jokingly saying, "No matter how powerful you are, can you be more powerful than Senior Sister?"

Feng Ling could naturally see through Elder Fu's tricks, but if he took the initiative to bring it up, wouldn't he expose his disguise?
"Hmph! Don't give me that."

Upon receiving Leng Ning Shuang's cold snort, Feng Ling confidently thought to himself: If this old man is an evil spirit master, let alone a mere tenth-level cultivator, even if he were an eleventh-level cultivator, I would still go over and give him a good slap!
"Miss Miaoshuang, Brother Fengling, please come in!" Zhang Yi greeted them warmly, welcoming the stunned Fengling and his companion into the Sun residence.

Zhang Yi led the way, occasionally glancing at the woman's icy face, and tried to start a conversation: "I have already sent someone to prepare lunch. Let's have our meal first, and then we can see Yu Yang later!"

"Hmm." Leng Ning Shuang simply nodded in response, but inwardly she was filled with regret: Why did she have to reveal her true face and "throw away" the veil?
Even so, her veil and tulips are still safely stored with Feng Ling. She shamelessly made Feng Ling act as her storage box!
Life is not about persevering because of hope; it's about seeing hope because we persevere.

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages offer you a pure land for your souls.
