Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Generation after generation, the heads of the Demon Palace remained out of sight . The new head had earned the title of Demon King because he killed without feeling or mercy and had wiped out an entire clan in just one night . But what was the legendary Demon King doing in the Feng Manor, injuring Feng Xiang for no reason?

As Si Mobai looked down at Feng Xiang from his great height, a pill appeared on his palm . He flicked the pill into Feng Xiang’s mouth, saying, “I will keep you alive for her to practice on . ” He did not say anything else and disappeared into thin air .

Feng Xiang could taste the medicine in his mouth and wanted to spit it out, but the pill had turned into a liquid . It went down his throat into his stomach, making his cinnabar field suddenly rise in temperature and pressure as about to blow . Suddenly, he was terrified—was the intruder’s intention to blow up his cinnabar field and render him a useless person?

The burning sensation faded quickly, and there was no more discomfort . However, he felt his cinnabar field shrinking and the Spiritual Force inside spilling out, running haphazardly through his meridian channels .

Pffffft! Feng Xiang spat out a mouthful of blood and screamed in hate, “Demon King!” and fainted .

The guards heard the commotion and rushed over, but Feng Xiang had already lost consciousness . They quickly called for Xu Jiayi as they moved him to the bedroom . Su Ji was also summoned to come and take a look at him . Su Ji didn’t like visiting the Fengs because they had questioned his medical skills repeatedly, and that made him angry .

“The Feng Clan Head has suffered a very serious internal injury . His cinnabar field has been damaged . He cannot advance his skills anymore . Otherwise, he will risk his life . ” Su Ji finished checking Feng Xiang’s body but was unable to find the cause . This was the only conclusion he could offer . In fact, it was the first time he’d come across a case like this .

“Can’t advance anymore?” Xu Jiayi was horrified by this and quickly asked, “He’s supposed to reach the Spiritual King stage anytime now . Are you sure he’s not able to advance further?”

Feng Xiang was at the Advanced-stage Spiritual Grandmaster level and was going to reach the Spiritual King stage soon . Was that no longer possible?

“No, he cannot . There is no cure for his current state,” Su Ji concluded .

Then, Su Ji left . Xu Jiayi looked at the unconscious Feng Xiang for a long time and thought to herself: This means that Feng Xiang has already reached his maximum capability since he is now unable to advance further . That also means that he is as good as useless now .

After being in a daze for a while, she called for a few servants, but nobody knew what had happened to Feng Xiang . They had to wait for him to regain consciousness before they could find out .

“Miss, miss!” Chuling’s extremely anxious voice awoke Feng Tianlan .

“What is it?” Feng Tianlan was very used to this overly nervous tone because both Chuling and Yunzhu possessed this kind of intonation .

Chuling was panting as she said, “More than ten bodyguards are making their way here, and they look even scarier than a Three-Judge Court!”

By the time Feng Tianlan calmly got up and got dressed, the bodyguards had surrounded the entrance to the courtyard . The head bodyguard looked at her and said with no respect whatsoever, “The Clan Head and Madam have ordered you to go over . ”

“Miss, run quickly! Your slave girl here will cover you . ” Chuling saw that the bodyguards might do her harm and quickly ran in front of Feng Tianlan . She looked determined to fight anybody who came near .

Feng Tianlan saw how Chuling instinctively ran in front of her to protect her and smiled as she pulled her to one side, then said to the bodyguards, “Let’s go . ”

“Miss!” Chuling called out after her anxiously . She worried that she was putting herself in harm’s way, especially given what had happened the day before .

Feng Tianlan smiled as she said, “Chuling, I’m no longer the old Feng Tianlan . ”
