Chapter 17: Exchanging Feelings with the Third Imperial Prince

  Nan Gong Chen had only seen Feng You Yue three times, and in his memory, what he hated the most was her dull and lifeless eyes and her always dirty face. From a young age, he felt ashamed of having a foolish fiancée. He thought to himself, as the third prince of Wan Lan Country, with exceptional talent, why couldnt he have any woman he wanted? Why did he have to marry an idiot?!

  He had asked the Empress Dowager many times to persuade the Emperor to cancel the engagement, but she said that the Feng family was deeply rooted and if he could form an alliance with them, it would be a great help in ascending to the throne. Moreover, Feng Qing was the only dual-attribute Grandmaster of the Wanlan Empire, with a revered status, and if he could stand on his side, it would be a great help.

  The empress said, "But shes just a fool. Marrying her and keeping her at home wont lose any flesh. Once he ascends to the throne and the situation is settled, how to deal with that foolish woman will still be his decision."

  Nangong Chenshi thought for a moment and agreed with his mothers plan. Feng Youyue was nothing but an ant to him, but if she could help him ascend to the throne, then this fool would be considered a great merit.

  However, although he acknowledged this relationship, Nan Gong Chen had never come to see his fiancée. Occasionally, they would meet at the Fengs house, but it was always with undisguised disgust and disdain.

  Recently, I heard that she had gone missing. Nan Gong Chen couldnt help but let out a sigh of relief. But just a few days later, he heard that Feng Youyue was back, and whats more, her foolish illness had been cured.

  Whats the use of being smart? He has been an idiot for over a decade. Even if he recovers, he will still be useless and it wont make any difference to him!

  Now, looking at the bright and moving girl in front of him, Nan Gong Chens eyes showed a look of surprise. This woman was even more beautiful than Feng Yu Xue!

  "Young sister, I heard that you went missing a few days ago. I was worried and came to visit you." Nangong Chen hooked up the corner of his lips, revealing a elegant smile. He was originally handsome, but with this smile, he looked even more dignified and refined.

  I didnt expect Feng Youyue to be so beautiful and radiant. If I were to marry her, it wouldnt necessarily be a bad thing.

  Nan Gong Chenru thought, the smile in his eyes became even more gentle. He had always been confident in his appearance and talent, and even Feng Jias eldest young lady, Feng Yuxue, was infatuated with him. Feng Yuemei was just a little fool, she would definitely not be able to escape his grasp!

  But little did he know, the other partys reaction was not quite what he had expected.

  Feng You looked at him with a faint glance, hooked her lips lazily and smiled, looking at Feng Cang, "Grandfather, who is this person? I dont seem to remember."

  Nangong Chens eyes narrowed, and his smile froze on his face. Feng Qing coughed softly and looked at Xiao Sun with a gloomy expression, saying in a low voice, "You Yue, this is the Third Prince Nangong Chen. Hes not from our family, so you naturally havent seen him before."

  "Oh! ~ So its the Third Prince after all!" Feng Youyue drew out her voice, looking at him with a profound gaze, "No wonder I didnt recognize you, Ive never even heard of you!"

  Nangong Chen was taken aback. Feng Youyues reaction wasnt quite what he had expected. Shouldnt she be blushing all over her face?

  Suppressing the anger in his heart, Nangong Chen dryly laughed and said, "Jiuyue sister is joking. You and I have been engaged since childhood, and the Feng and Imperial families are originally one family. Both sides still need to interact more and communicate their feelings."

  Feng Youyue gazed at him for a moment, then suddenly let out a soft laugh. She waved her sleeve, and with her right hand, she stroked her chin thoughtfully.

  "I dont know if I have a fiancé, but Ive heard that the Third Prince and Miss Yuexue are quite close. Ah, yes! Miss Yuexue has been confined recently, eating poorly and sleeping badly every day. Since the Third Prince is so thoughtful, why not go visit her? By the way... exchange feelings!" She flashed eight small white teeth, smiled brightly, raised an eyebrow playfully, and walked directly past Nan Gongchens side.

  "Fu Su! Sang He! Return to the Moon Garden and go to sleep!"

  "Yes, miss!" Fu Su and Sang He replied in unison, holding back their laughter as they followed Feng Youyue, leaving the school grounds.

  The playground is extremely quiet, with only the soft sound of a gentle breeze. The dazzling sunlight shines on my body, making me feel somewhat irritable in my heart.

  Nangong Chen narrowed his eyes, gazing at Feng Youyues receding back, his temples throbbing with pain. His dark eyes flashed with layer upon layer of anger, and his handsome face turned gloomy.

  Feng Cang Lao stood by, giving a thumbs up in his heart to Feng You Yue. Just now, he was worried that Xiao Sun would be infatuated with Nan Gong Chen, but it seemed he had overthought it.

  "Cough, Third Prince, please forgive her. Its been a long time since Ive seen the Third Prince, if theres anything wrong, please dont blame her." What Feng Qing said sounded pleasant, but what she really meant was, serves you right! Who made you look down on my familys You Yue in the past? Now youre getting your comeuppance!

  "Now that the Third Prince is here, why dont you stay for lunch?" Feng Qing asked again.

  Nan Gong Chen withdrew his gaze, looked at Feng Qing with a gloomy expression, "Feng family master, Yuè Méi has some opinions about me, and its better for the master to help more. After all, the engagement between the Feng family and the imperial family still needs to continue. I have something to attend to today, so Ill take my leave first." After saying that, he bowed and left with big strides.

  Feng Congs face fell, and he clearly heard what Nangong Chen meant earlier.

  "Hmph! What a thing! Still dare to use the Emperor to threaten me!" He let out a cold snort, his eyes blazing with anger. That Nan Gong Chen scoundrel, he had always looked down on him with disdain! If it werent for the sake of the imperial familys face, he would have cancelled the engagement long ago! His own little granddaughter was still precious to him, how could she be discarded like a weed by this stinky brat?!

  Feng Qingyans face didnt look too good either, he walked forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with his father, saying in a low voice, "Dad, what should we do now? Looking at the Third Princes attitude, its unlikely that he will let Yuèyùe off. With such a temperament, if Yuèyùe marries him, shell definitely suffer a lot!"

  Feng Qings eyes also showed concern, he thought for a moment and said, "Dont rush, lets ask Yu Yues opinion. If she doesnt like it either, Ill think of a way to cancel this engagement!"

  Feng Youyue didnt know what happened after she left, and when she returned to Yuan Yueyuan, she locked herself in her room. The mysterious man who suddenly appeared today gave her a considerable shock, and also made her realize her own weakness.

  Shes too weak! Must become stronger!

  Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Feng Youyues divine sense entered the Chaos Space, and the "Chaos Divine Technique" automatically ran, entering a deep state of cultivation.

  The time flew by quickly, and before she knew it, evening had arrived. As Feng Youyue woke up from her meditation, she happened to hear Fusou knocking on the door outside.

  "Miss, are you awake? The master of the house has arrived."

  Phoenix Yuè blinked her eyes, agilely landed on the ground, stretched her waist and walked out.

  "Here you come! Grandpa, are you here to freeload again?"

  Feng Qing, who was drinking tea, almost choked when she heard this and coughed twice, glaring fiercely at her smiling granddaughter.

  "What nonsense!" He looked up to see Feng Youyue sitting on the chair with her legs crossed, looking like a boneless thing, and her second leg was still shaking. Feng Cang suddenly got a headache.

  "Sit properly! You dont even have a bit of ladylike demeanor! Has your temperament been eaten by dogs?"

  Feng Youyue casually picked up an apple and took a bite, "crunch" sound, lazily looked at Feng Qing with raised eyebrows, asking, "Temperament? Whats that thing? Can it be eaten as rice?"

  Feng Qing pounded his chest with his fist, feeling like he couldnt catch his breath. This granddaughter of his had indeed recovered from her illness, but how did she become so evil? It made his head ache with anger!

  "Tomorrow is the second assessment, are you confident?" He wisely changed the subject.

  "Of course! No big deal!" Feng Youyues eyebrows rose, and a confident light burst forth from her eyes. "Its just a small test, dont worry about it." As she spoke, she suddenly sat up straight, pulled the chair in front of Feng Cang, and gazed at him with sparkling eyes. "Grandfather, who was that man today? You seemed to be really afraid of him!"

  "Whats fear? Thats respect!" Feng Qing glared at her with a suddenly serious expression, his voice also becoming deeper.

  "That man is the one person in the Nine You Continent who cannot be provoked. Everyone calls him Your Excellency, and even the Emperor of Tianyu First-Rate Country has to bow his head and acknowledge him."

  "How can this be?" Feng Youyues face was shocked, "What kind of person is he?"

  "I dont know." Feng Qing shook his head, "No one knows what his true identity is. Some people say that he may not even be from the Jiuyou Continent. Two hundred years ago, when the Jiuyou Continent faced a great crisis, it was he who single-handedly turned the tide and saved the world. Since then, everyone has revered him as Your Excellency."

  Two hundred years ago?

  Feng Youyues eyes twitched at the corner, so this person must be at least over two hundred years old?

  People who cultivate Xuanli, their lifespan will increase with their strength. The Xuan Shi stage has a maximum of 200 years of life. The Xuan Shifu stage is 400 years. The Da Xuan Shifu is up to 800 years. When you reach an even higher level, your lifespan will be longer. There are even legends that say the peak power can live with the same longevity as heaven and earth!

  "What kind of strength does he have?" Feng Youyue asked again.

  Feng Cong shook his head, "Im not sure. Some people say he has already broken through the Xuanzun realm and reached a level that doesnt belong to the Jiuyou Continent."

  Xuanzun is the supreme existence among the cultivators of the Jiuyou Continent. A seventh-stage Xuanzun master can instantly kill a large group of powerful cultivators with just a release of their Xuan Qi, which is terrifying to the extreme. As for whether there are even more powerful existences beyond Xuanzun, Feng You Yue does not know. This is not something she can digest at present, and Feng Cang will not say any more.

  "Zun Shang said today that in five years, he will come to fetch you, and he wont go back on his word. You Dou Yue, you must work hard, if you can be favored by him, it will only bring benefits to you." Feng Cangs words were sincere and heartfelt, he had never liked to curry favor with others. But if his granddaughter could gain Zun Shangs appreciation, her safety would be guaranteed. For him, nothing was more important than the little girls well-being.

  A warmth rose in Feng Youyues heart, and her eyes felt a little hot. She pursed her lips and nodded gently, "Dont worry, Grandfather, I will definitely not disappoint you and Fourth Uncle at the Five-Year Grand Competition!"

  As for that man... She will definitely work hard and become as strong as him!
