Chapter 5123: Confidence Editor: Misty Cloud Translations Guan Xilin returned home first, while the others went to have breakfast. The servants, secret guards, and bodyguards of the mansion followed them out of the hall and saw Feng Jiu, whom they hadn’t seen in a long time. Each of them felt deeply moved, wishing they could step forward to pay their respects. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 Though the Feng Manor hadn’t made any public announcements, rumors had quietly reached other families in the city. Yet, even those curious enough to visit dared not suddenly intrude. After breakfast, Feng Jiu accompanied her grandfather on a stroll through the estate while Mo Ze retired to rest. Noticing her glancing around as they walked, Feng Sanyuan asked, "Little Feng, it’s been a long time since you returned, hasn’t it? Does it feel unfamiliar?" Feng Jiu smiled. "How could it? I lived here for so long. Even if years passed without returning, this home would never feel strange to me." She laughed, linking her arm through his. "I’m just looking for Green Feather. I haven’t seen it since last night." "Hehehe, you mean that Green Feather chicken! Ever since you left it here, it’s been your Mother raising it. It eats well every day. Haven’t you noticed how plump and sturdy it’s become?" Feng Sanyuan chuckled, glancing around. "When you’re not home, the place feels rather quiet. But this Green Feather one pops out every now and then, clucking away. Though it can be a bit noisy, it does liven things up." As they chatted, they didn’t notice Green Feather peeking out from the flowerbeds behind them, watching Feng Jiu. Whether out of shyness or something else, it quickly retreated back into hiding. With Feng Jiu’s cultivation level, she sensed Green Feather following behind the moment it appeared. Since it hadn’t come out, she hadn’t called it either, instead accompanying her grandfather on his stroll. She smiled and said, " I was thinking of bringing Green Feather and Little Black with me this time, so they could join the other contract beasts in the Upper Immortal Realm. But since I can’t find it, I suppose it’s fine. I heard from Brother that Little Black is guarding Peach Blossom Ridge. I’ll go see it later." "Master! Take me with you! I want to go too! I want to follow!" The moment Feng Jiu spoke, Green Feather burst out from the flowerbed behind her. "Not hiding anymore?" Feng Jiu raised an eyebrow, eyeing the robust, plump Green Feather before her. If Mi’er saw this, she’d probably think it was perfect for stew. "Master..." It wiggled its fluffy rear, squeaking in a coy, coy manner that made Feng Jiu chuckle. She crouched down and ruffled its glossy green feathers. "Little Feng, from what you say, Mo Ze still bears the mark of the ancient Black Lotus. Could this lotus bring misfortune upon him? Can he truly control it?" " Feng Sanyuan recalled her words and grew concerned for Xuanyuan Mo Ze. Hearing his words, Feng Jiu stood up and said, "If it’s meant to be a blessing, it won’t be a curse; if it’s a curse, there’s no escaping it. Now that the Black Lotus is already upon him, it doesn’t matter what happens. The only thing we can do is face it head-on." "Ah!" Feng Sanyuan sighed, looking at her and patting her hand. " Outsiders only see your dazzling success, unaware of the immense hardships you’ve endured along the way. You’ve truly been through so much." Feng Jiu smiled faintly. "Grandfather, you needn’t worry about us. We’ll be just fine. Whatever difficulties lie ahead, we’ll overcome them one by one." Her voice paused, her brow radiating confidence as she declared, "In this world, there is nothing I, Feng Jiu, cannot accomplish."
