“W-Who’re you?” When Li Fei heard the skinny old man’s voice, she stared at him in confusion. For a moment, she even forgot that Han Jin Nian was in her room.
“Beautiful, it’s pointless to struggle… If there’s someone behind me, do you think I won’t notice it at all?” Han Jin Nian chuckled as he got closer to Li Fei. The lust in his eyes became even more apparent.
“Just a mere Saint Rudiment Stage, and you think you’ll be able to detect my presence?” At this moment, an ancient voice reverberated in the air, causing Han Jin Nian’s expression to turn horrified. Finally, he realized Li Fei was not trying to trick him, there really was a person behind him.
In the next moment, before he could even turn around, he saw a flash, and a figure appeared in front of him.
It was an old man dressed in a grey robe. His hand was holding on to a cane. Nobody knew what kind of material it was made of. He then moved to the cradle behind Li Fei and shifted his gaze to the baby in the cradle.
The baby had a chubby face and was very adorable.
With just a glance, the old man could see the baby’s eyes resembled his Lord Mansion Master. He could instantly tell whose child Li Fei had given birth to. “Young Mansion Master’s son! If Lord Mansion Master finds out he has a grandson, I wonder how happy he’ll be!”
A rare smile appeared on Ku Mi’s aloof and skinny face when he looked at the baby in the cradle. However, his smile was scarier than his crying face.
Ku Mi bent forward and picked up the baby immediately. He was afraid he would wake the baby up so late in the night so he was very gentle. It was as though he was holding a fragile treasure.
“You…” When Li Fei saw Ku Mi lifting her child, horror dawned on her face immediately. However, when she saw the smile on his face and how gentle he was, she no longer stopped him. She could tell this man bore no malicious intent.
However, she was still curious. How did this old man know her name and her man’s name?
“You’re not from Greenwave Han Mansion!” At this moment, Han Jin Nian also regained his senses. He glared at the old man. “Old fellow, I don’t care who you are, but you better scram if you know what’s good for you! My grandfather is the Supreme Elder of Greenwave Han Mansion and you…”
“You’re too noisy!” Han Jin Nian’s voice disturbed the baby who was asleep in Ku Mi’s arms and began to frown. The smile on Ku Mi’s face faded. He snarled in a low voice as the entire room began to fill with a strange and terrifying aura.
In the next instant, vine-like branches appeared out of thin air next to Han Jin Nian’s body.
These dried branches were like sharp swords. Before Han Jin Nian could finish his words, they had already pierced his body. One by one, the dried branches pierced through his body. Some pierced through his heart, some pierced through his waist, and some pierced through his head.
All in all, the entire scene was extremely gory.
Although it was gory, Li Fei was not scared at all. After all, she had witnessed many scenes like this in her life. One of the examples would be at the time when she was on Half Moon Island. That scene that was like hell had tempered her and steeled her heart. In fact, when she how Han Jin Nian died, a sense of satisfaction rose up in her heart.
After all, she did think about killing herself earlier rather than give Han Jin Nian what he had wanted.
At this moment, she was filled with a great longing for Duan Ling Tian and her newborn son.
“Young Madam, follow me… Lord Mansion Master is waiting for us outside,” Ku Mi said to Li Fei as he carried the baby.
“Y-You called me Young Madam?” Li Fei was stunned when she heard Ku Mi’s words.
“Your fiancé is my Young Mansion Master. Naturally, you’re my Young Madam.” When Ku Mi’s words left his mouth, without waiting for Li Fei’s reply, he instantly raised his hand. Invisible energy immediately stretched out before it forcefully brought Li Fei out of the room, away from Greenwave Han Mansion.
Li Fei was still in a daze even after she was brought away. When did her man become a Young Mansion Master?
Soon after, under Ku Mi’s lead, Li Fei met Duan Ru Feng.
When Li Fei looked at the young man whose eyes resembled her man a lot, she instantly knew who he was without the need for words. This was because she had heard her man mentioned this man before.
“Y-You’re… f…f-father?” Li Fei was stunned for a long while as she stared at Duan Ru Feng before she finally addressed him with the title ‘Father’.
After she called out to him, her beautiful face became flushed.
“You’re Fei’er, right? You’re really as outstanding as Rou’er said… T-This child…” When Duan Ru Feng saw Li Fei, his eyes lit up as well, secretly praising his son for having such good judgment. However, he suddenly noticed the child in Ku Mi’s arms. Since he did not manage to get a good look, he did not see the child possessed a pair of eyes that resembled Duan Ling Tian by at least 50 to 60%. Moreover, the child resembled Duan Ru Feng as well.
“This is his and my child,” Li Fei answered with a blush.
“What?!” Although he had already suspected this, he was still filled with joy when Li Fei confirmed it. He immediately took the baby from Ku Mi. To be precise, it was more like he snatched the baby away from Ku Mi.
As Duan Ru Feng carried the baby, he looked at the child’s eyes. He was grinning from ear to ear. He was a grandfather now! Tears inexplicably began to well up in his eyes.
“Father, you…” At this moment, Li Fei finally recalled the strength of the old man who had brought her out. Moreover, the old man even addressed her man as Young Mansion Master. She looked at Duan Ru Feng and Ku Mi in confusion.
As far as she knew, forces with the title ‘Mansion’ in the Dao Martial Saint Land were fifth-rate forces or higher like the Greenwave Han Mansion.
However, currently, all of Duan Ru Feng’s attention was focused on the grandson in his arms. He did not hear Li Fei’s words at all.
Due to that reason, Ku Mi who was standing at the side quickly answered her question, “Young Madam, Lord Mansion Master is the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion… The Azure Cloud Mansion is a top-tier force in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It’s not something the Greenwave Han Mansion can compare to. In the entire Dao Martial Saint Land, our Azure Cloud Mansion is a quasi third-rate force!”
A quasi third-rate force!
When Li Fei heard Ku Mi’s words, her heart jolted.
She did not have much to do during her stay in the Greenwave Han Mansion so she had read all sorts of records about the Dao Martial Saint Land. One of them had mentioned quasi third-rate forces before.
Although quasi third-rate forces were essentially fourth-rate forces, due to them being stronger than normal fourth-rate forces, they were referred to as quasi third-rate forces.
In the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, a quasi third-rate force could be considered as a mighty force.
In the records Li Fei had read, there was also information regarding the Lower and Upper Province in the Dao Martial Saint Land. She learned that the Dao Martial Saint Land had separated into two many years ago.
The people from the Upper Province rarely came to the Lower Province, and they would not meddle in the matters of the Lower Province.
How could she not be shocked when she found out her father-in-law was the Mansion Master of a mighty quasi third-rate force in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land?
“Father!” Li Fei instantly kneeled in the sky when she learned of Duan Ru Feng’s identity.
“Fei’er, what are you doing?” Duan Ru Feng was stunned when he saw this.
“Father, Sister Ke’er has disappeared. I hope you’ll look for her!” Li Fei’s tears began to stream down her face.
At that time, they had left Half Moon Island. After going through a lot of hardship, she finally arrived at the Greenwave Han Mansion. However, due to her body’s condition, she could not return and look for Ke’er.
Because of her, Han Xue Nai, Little Black, Little White, and Little Gold could not leave and guarded her. It was only after she had given birth that Han Xue Nai finally brought the three little fellows to the Half Moon Island. However, they had not returned yet.
“Sigh! Both of you really care for one another.” After Duan Ru Feng heard her words, he sighed. At the same time, he raised his hand as invisible energy stretched out and lifted Li Fei to her feet. “Fei’er, Ke’er is alright. You don’t have to worry.”
“Sister Ke’er is alright?” When Li Fei heard his words, her eyes lit up immediately. “Father, is this true?”
“Yes, it’s true.” Duan Ru Feng nodded before telling her how he discovered the voice transmission jade slip that Duan Ling Tian left behind for her when he returned to Cloud Continent. Moreover, he also told her about the other matter contained in the voice transmission jade slip. “Although Ke’er was brought away by that woman from the Fire Worship Sect, I don’t think she’ll harm her since she claims to be her twin sister.”
“I’ve never heard Ke’er mentioned anything about having a twin sister.” Li Fei was slightly taken aback when she heard this.
“Perhaps, even Ke’er doesn’t know the truth about her identity.” Duan Ru Feng sighed before he revealed everything he knew, including how Ke’er might be the current Saint Girl the Fire Worship Sect had been looking for since a long time ago.
“Father, even you can’t bring Sister Ke’er back from the Fire Worship Sect?” Li Fei asked.
“Even in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the Fire Worship Sect is a high-ranking and powerful force! There are three religions and nine forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land. The Fire Worship Sect is one of the three religions… As for the nine forces, it refers to all the forces in the Upper and Lower Province in the Dao Martial Saint Land. In the Upper Province, there are also many first-rate, quasi first-rate, second-rate, quasi second-rate and third-rate forces. However, even an ordinary first-rate force in the Upper Province is far from being a match for the Fire Worship Sect! My Azure Cloud Mansion is only a top force in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.” One could hear the helplessness in Duan Ru Feng’s words as he spoke.
If the Fire Worship Sect was merely a sect in the Lower Province, he would have long gone to the sect and bring his daughter-in-law back.
“The Fire Worship Sect is actually t-this powerful? How could Sister Ke’er have anything to do with it? W-What should she do now that she’s taken by somebody from the Fire Worship Sect? What’s going to happen to the child in her belly?” Li Fei’s face was etched with worries.
“What??? Ke’er is pregnant too?” When Duan Ru Feng heard Li Fei’s words, he was confused.
