1785 Waiting


    “Invite Elder Nan Ye and Elder Wu Peng over,” Nan Yifan instructed the people outside.


    …


    The two elders rushed over and entered the study one after another.


    Nan Yifan was writing something in front of the table.


    “Master.” The two elders bowed together.


    Nan Yifan nodded without stopping.


    The two elders tactfully waited quietly.


    After about half an hour, Nan Yifan finally stopped writing. He picked up the paper and read it carefully before looking at the two people in front of him.


    “I invited the two elders here today to discuss something.” Nan Yifan went straight to the point. “I n to go out for a while; it will probably take about ten days. During this period, I’ll leave everything in the n to the two of you.”


    Both elders looked surprised.


    Elder Nan Ye asked, “Where is Master going? It actually takes so long?”


    Nan Yifan was extremely strong and fast. Under normal circumstances, even if he wanted toe out to do something, it wouldn’t take ten days. Moreover, the Nan family was at an extremely sensitive and critical moment.


    If he left now, and something happened—


    “Yuxing’s condition can’t be dyed any longer. I know someone who might have a method, and I n to ask him personally. If he can cure Yuxing’s illness, it’ll naturally be best. If not… I won’t have any regrets.”


    Elder Nan Ye was even more surprised. “There’s actually such a person in the world?”


    He was a supreme Physician and was already an extremely powerful existence among heavenly doctors. However, he was still helpless in front of Nan Yuxing’s ailment.


    The person who can cure Nan Yuxing… Aren’t they even more outstanding than me? That is almost someone who only exists in rumors.


    “If you can really ask this person to treat the eldest young master’s illness, that would be great!”


    Elder Wu Peng wasn’t so optimistic. He sized up Nan Yifan and saw that thetter didn’t look rxed.


    After thinking for a moment, he asked, “Master, is this person… very difficult to invite?”


    Nan Yifan nodded with a bitter smile. They are more than difficult to hire; there are many other troubles…


    This was also why he didn’t choose this path when Nan Yuxing was first crippled. If he hadn’t heard what Nan Yuxing had said today, he would not have done this no matter what.


    Now, there was really no other way.


    “Yuxing and Yiyi’s situation isn’t very good now. Many people in the n are watching them, so you have to pay more attention. Before I return, you must not reveal their situation. In addition, my whereabouts are confidential this time. If outsiders ask, tell them that I’m cultivating in seclusion.”


    The two elders acknowledged it and bowed. “Don’t worry, Master!”


    Only then did Nan Yifan rx.


    He handed the paper he had written on to Elder Wu Peng. “If anyone discovers that something is wrong and that I haven’t returned in time, Wu Peng, you’ll take over the responsibility of family head. Leave this handwritten letter as a keepsake.”


    Elder Wu Peng’s expression froze. At this moment, he already had a faint premonition that Nan Yifan’s trip would definitely be very dangerous.


    He took the letter with both hands and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Master, since this trip is dangerous, then… Should we add more people—”


    “No need.” Nan Yifan waved his palm gently.


    In the middle of the study, a bright transportation formation suddenly appeared!


    He walked over. “I’ll go myself. You just have to stay here and guard everything.”


    Seeing that he had made up his mind, the two elders did not persuade him anymore. “Goodbye, Master!”


    Nan Yifan nodded.


    The next moment, light flickered, and the transportation formation gradually spun.


    Nan Yifan’s figure quickly disappeared!


    …


    The Sky-Cloud Empire.


    Everyone had already received news in advance that His Grace would return with the princess consort today. Therefore, early in the morning, the elders had already gathered in Tongshen Pce and were waiting.


    Everyone looked out of the hall from time to time.


    “Previously, His Highness said that he was going to Godly Phoenix Mountain to fetch the princess consort back. Why did he take so long to return?”


    “Speaking of which, hasn’t the princess consort always been in t Ling Xiao Academy? Why did she suddenly go to Godly Phoenix Mountain?”


    “That’s naturally because… there’s quite a conflict between the princess consort and the red-gold heavenly phoenix n! Don’t you know that the princess consort has contracted a red-gold heavenly phoenix?”


    “What—really? Isn’t it rumored that ancient legendary fiends never contract with humans? Then, the princess consort’s red-gold heavenly phoenix is…”


    “Actually, I really don’t know if the princess consort is too lucky or too unlucky. Her red-gold heavenly phoenix was actually her previous red-tailed phoenix that transformed! There are so many red-tailed phoenixes in the world, but there are very few who can advance further.”


    “It has to be said that this is an opportunity that ordinary people can’t envy. However… this is where the trouble lies. If it’s to break through to be another legendary fiend, there naturally won’t be a problem. However, what kind of existence is the red-gold heavenly phoenix n? After so many years, they almost never interact with the human race. How can they let go of this matter so easily?”


    “That’s true… It seems that this time, it was the red-gold heavenly phoenix n leader, Yi Zhao, who personally wrote to Ling Xiao Academy and asked the princess consort to visit personally… His Grace has been gone for so long before returning. He probably spent a lot of effort…”


    In other words, His Grace must’ve paid a high price in order to help Shangguan Yue.


    The crowd partook in heated discussions.


    They were mostly in agreement on this matter. After all, the pride and arrogance of the red-gold heavenly phoenix n were famous. This was especially so for Yi Zhao, who was very difficult to deal with.


    It wasn’t surprising that they would think so.


    36 Respected Elder Ming sat in his seat and leaned back in his chair, listening to everyone’s various discussions with a rxed expression. “Since His Grace has brought the princess consort back, it means that the matter has been sessfully resolved. What’s there to worry about?”


    The hall fell silent for a moment.


    That’s true, but who knows the inside story?


    Someone asked, “36 Respected Elder Ming, aren’t you worried at all? The red-gold heavenly phoenix n isn’t to be trifled with…”


    36 Respected Elder Mingughed out loud. “So what? Don’t forget that the princess consort’s red-gold heavenly phoenix has been following her since a few years ago. It’s just that it happened to break through now. Even if the red-gold heavenly phoenix n wants to do something, they have to be reasonable, right? Besides, His Grace and the princess consort aren’t ordinary people. How can they let themselves be bullied?”


    These words were really irrefutable.


    The person who asked the question wanted to say more, but he was stopped by the person beside him. “Don’t ask. 36 Respected Elder Ming is famous for protecting our princess consort. Even if they really cause any trouble because of this, he won’t say anything bad about the princess consort.”


    The man swallowed the rest of his words.


    At this moment, someone hurried over from outside. “36 Respected Elder Ming, Shangguan You is here!”
