Yan Hai and Yan Xuan went back as quickly as they could to wash up. They couldn’t stand the stench themselves, much less their master.
Fifteen minutes later, both of them had cleaned themselves up nicely and stood before Qingcheng again. They no longer had that discouraged air around them. Their clothing was neat and clean, and their hair was properly combed and tied up nicely. Elder Yan now looked younger and did look more like an uncle of around 50 years of age. His gaze was no longer cloudy. It was clear and energetic instead. His leg had healed, so his footsteps were strong and steady like they had been before his injury.
Yan Xuan’s features were clean and handsome. After washing up, he didn’t have any of the messy stubble from the day before, and his complexion had a bright fairness from not having seen sunlight in a long time. The size of his muscles had almost all gone back to normal, and he stood at five feet seven inches tall. His figure was on the skinny side. All in all, he gave off a very elegant and scholarly air.
“Master!” Both of them bowed to greet her.
Upon hearing their voices, Qingcheng turned to look at them and quietly uttered one word, “Sit.”
Qingcheng never said much, and the two men now had solemn expressions on their faces. They didn’t dare to say anything and quietly sat down on the chairs in front of her.
Qingcheng started speaking again, saying, “Since you already know who I really am, then I’m good with letting you know a little more. I suppose both of you are still not too sure why I’m back. My aim is to… exterminate the Feng family!” Her tone suddenly turned nasty!
The two men were shocked by this revelation. The Feng family? Wasn’t it said that the Feng family was very kind to their master? But if their master really wanted to fight the Feng family, then they were definitely going to obey her!
They exchanged glances, then nodded resolutely. Elder Yan said, “Master, even though we don’t know why you want to exterminate the Feng family, you must have your own reasons for it. Our lives belong to you! So, we will follow everything you say!”
Qingcheng nodded slightly. “Since you want to know why I’m fine with telling you…”
Half an hour later… the good feelings the two of them initially had towards the Feng family were all gone now. They didn’t treat this as a matter of just obeying what their master instructed them to do. Their faces were now filled with fury!
Elder Yan said furiously, “I can’t believe this Feng Qiming and his family could actually be such animals! The Old Master Feng was such an upright person, but he ended up getting killed by this beastly son of a concubine. I’ve seen your parents a few times myself, and their talent and manner were indeed incomparable. This Feng Qiming and his family are all wicked people!”
Elder Yan’s expression was twisted with fury. He thought that the heavens had been unfair to him, but thankfully he was able to meet his master, who gave him a new lease on life. He never imagined that his master would have gone through something even worse than him!
Yan Xuan was even more furious. “Master! We must tear off Feng Qingling’s pretty mask someday! Such a ruthless and wicked woman is really poison to others.” He never thought that the Eldest Miss Feng, who everyone sang praises of, would turn out to be such an evil woman.
Qingcheng changed the later part of the story to say that after she had lost consciousness and pretended to be dead, her body had been abandoned in Langya Magical Beast Forest. Luckily, her current master had found her and saved her. All these reclusive sects had all sorts of magical and incredible pills, so she recovered very quickly. She said that her medical knowledge was all taught to her by her master, and she could cultivate after she went through a marrow cleansing after taking a Marrow Cleansing Pill. Also, her current cultivation level was given to her by her master.
As for Tealwood, she said that she happened to stumble upon him in the forest, and he took the initiative to establish a bond with her. She also told them that he was the Sacred Beast that everyone was talking about. As for why he wanted to establish a bond with her, they would have to ask Tealwood himself.
“And so, I’ve come back precisely to exterminate the Feng family.” As she said that, the cup in her hand turned to powder…
After the two men heard her story, they were both outraged by the Feng family’s shamelessness, but they were also filled with admiration for Qingcheng. She went from nothing to the cultivation level she had now. They couldn’t tell exactly what level she was at, but they were sure it wasn’t low. She had also learned such an incredible level of medicine in such a short time, so they were really in awe of her and couldn’t help but idolize her.
Also, after finding out that Tealwood was actually a Sacred Beast, they were thoroughly shocked! A Sacred Beast, which hadn’t appeared in front of humans for the past few centuries, was actually right in front of them and was also bonded to their master! All of this made their hearts find it difficult to calm back down.
At the same time, they were truly proud as well, because this was the Magical Beast that was bonded to their master! When they looked at Tealwood now, their gaze was filled with a little fear and respect.
Tealwood didn’t care for this. He only had eyes for his master, Qingcheng. Only the things she did would attract his attention.
Elder Yan tried hard to digest all this information. Then his expression became grim again. “Master, do you already have a plan in mind? What do you need us to do?” He was already filled with nothing but contempt for the Feng family.
Qingcheng started to talk about the first part of her plan, saying, “Elder Yan, I’d like to take over this restaurant of yours. Is that alright?” The two of them had acknowledged her as their master, but this place belonged to them, so she wasn’t going to take advantage of them like this.
Elder Yan immediately replied, “Master, if you want it, just take it. There’s no need to ask me! This place will be yours from now on! I will pass you the deed later!” His words were filled with sincerity.
Yan Xuan quickly added on, “Master, we both already call you our master, so of course this place is yours. It’s up to you how you want to use it.”
But Qingcheng didn’t accept it. “No, I don’t want you to give it to me. I want to buy it from you. If that’s not possible, then I’ll find somewhere else to buy.” Her words sounded somewhat threatening, but her meaning was very clear. She didn’t want to take any advantage of them because that was a matter of principle.
The two of them saw that Qingcheng was insistent, so they didn’t say anything more. Elder Yan immediately went to fetch the deed. “Master, this is the deed. Please take a look.”
Qingcheng didn’t bother looking at it and reached into her storage ring to take out two red crystals for the father and son in front of her. The two of them were completely stunned.
Elder Yan started to stutter over his own words, saying, “Master… this… these are low-grade crystals? No, no, no… that’s too much! We can’t accept this! We can’t!” His master was really shocking! One low-grade crystal was equivalent to 100,000 gold coins, and she had taken out two of them! The more important part was that one could absorb the energy of these crystals to cultivate, and one could go up in level very quickly! If someone out there found out about this, wouldn’t they come to rob them?
Elder Yan immediately continued, “Master! This restaurant is in a good location, but it’s not worth this much, either!” He really didn’t know what else to say. Qingcheng was clearly not taking the crystals back.
Yan Xuan also quickly chimed in to help, saying, “Master! One of these crystals can buy two of such restaurants, but you’re offering two crystals at once, so it’s really too much…” This master was simply too generous!
Qingcheng replied to them very simply. “Take it and cultivate. If you still want to avenge yourselves, then you have to become strong and powerful as quickly as possible!” she said. She stood up and looked out of the window.
To Qingcheng, money and assets were like feces and soil. Having actual ability was the way to go!
Elder Yan and his son hung their heads after hearing these words. They thought about their current capabilities. Then it hit them. That’s right! They had to take revenge! They needed to cultivate! They had to have the ability to take revenge!
After they had sorted their thoughts out, they looked up at Qingcheng again. “Thank you, Master!” They realized that Qingcheng was trying to help them to increase their ability, and they became even more grateful to her now.
Once she saw that they got it, she went back to her instructions. “Elder Yan, from now on, you will still be in charge of this place. However, the restaurant shall now be called Intoxicating Immortals Restaurant. You shall hang a large sign outside to say that you’re undergoing renovations and will not be operating for the time being.”
