: Taking a Trip Out of the City Jier shrugged.
When it came to those two, he had no clue.
He was helpless when it came to Feng Wu’s contracted spirit and beast.
If they were his contracted entities, he would definitely let them know how a contracted beast or spirit was supposed to behave.
Disobedient? Haha.
Jier sneered.
If they dared to not listen, he would hit them until they became obedient.
Lydia, who was practicing in a place with strong yin energy, suddenly felt a cold chill.
She touched her neck.
What was going on? She had a spirit body, why did she suddenly feel cold? Illogical! Rui Baby was sleeping in a small nest in the spirit world eating fresh fruits and enjoying the beautiful scenery when he suddenly sneezed.
“Achoo!” Strange.
Who was scolding him behind his back? Just wait for this baby to figure out who...
“Isn’t Little White good? Little White wouldn’t leave Xiao Ye’s side.
Don’t forget Little White is a Shengmu that specializes in taking care of children.” Everyone on the continent knew how much Shengmu beasts loved children.
In fact, Shengmu beasts often took better care of children than their own biological parents did.
There was no way the Shengmu beast would have stood idle while Little Bun was being kidnapped.
After discussing for a long time, everyone believed it was a letter from Little White.
But that begged the question, when did the Shengmu beast have such a powerful skill, to be able to deliver a letter while avoiding so many people on campus.
Was Little White so powerful? Even though the Shengmu beasts weren’t the worst soldiers to have in war, they weren’t good either.
They weren’t good at hiding and weren’t fast.
If it was really Little White, how did it evade so many eyes and manage to deliver the note? Meanwhile, as Jier was discussing this with everyone, Little Bun was being transferred to a new location.
Feng Yi didn’t know what they smeared on Little Bun’s head, but his hair matched his black eyes and now he looked like a child from the ancient eastern countries.
Hua Jin had her maid feed Little Bun sleeping pills to keep him from talking on the trip.
A pity though, she didn’t know Little Bun’s body was filled with pure elf blood which made him completely immune to harmful drugs.
Little Bun pretended to fall asleep while Feng Yi arranged for a couple of eastern descent with black hair and eyes to take Little Bun away overnight out of Zhongyang.
To avoid attracting attention, they opted to travel by ordinary cargo ship instead of using a teleportation array.
The couple came from the Hound mercenary group.
In order to make things look more realistic, they even brought another little boy along with them.
They borrowed the little boy, who was about five years old, from his parents for a fee.
They had paid more than half the deposit upfront too.
“Mom, is brother still sleeping? When will he wake up and play with me?” The little boy tugged at the pretty black-haired woman beside him cutely.
Theresa had thought about the possibility of Little Bun being taken out of the city, so she alerted the guards at the teleportation array, the docks and flying beast stations to watch out for a white haired and black eyed two-year-old boy.
Anyone fitting that description had to be detained until she could confirm their identity.
Theresa never expected the kidnappers would already be a step ahead.
As members of Xingguang Holy academy, it was easy for Hua Jin and Feng Yi to figure out Theresa’s plans.
Feng Yi’s arrangements had already accounted for Theresa’s block, so before Theresa even got a hint of news, Feng Yi had already moved Little Bun out.
Wherever Little Bun was going, it wasn’t a good place.
Feng Wu was still unaware her little baby had been kidnapped.
She and Ming Xi were on their way to a small, scenic island rich in natural resources called Coral Island.
There was a reason Ming Xi and Feng Wu were heading there instead of returning to school for the rest of their break.
The Moon empress had received a letter asking for help.
Coral Island was a private island owned by Mrs.
Normandy, the Moon empress’s good friend.
The two ladies had been best friends when they were younger, but because of their respective marriages – Mrs.
Normandy married the owner of Coral Island and lived on the island while the Moon empress became the Moon empress and lived on the continent – contact between the two decreased to the point where they hadn’t seen each other in years.
Mrs.
Normandy was a strong woman who maintained the island and raised her children as a single parent after her husband’s death.
Her husband had died many years ago in an accident shortly after the children were born.
Overall, life wasn’t bad.
But two days ago, bursts of black mist suddenly appeared in the sea surrounding the island.
After contact with the mist, many of the island residents became bloodthirsty and cruel.
A killing spree ensued.
These people were eventually all killed by the experts Mrs.
Normandy sent for and the matter was dealt with.
But unfortunately, things were far from over.
Black mist continued to rise out of the sea and eventually most of the islanders were infected.
They became more and more inhumane and the originally calm and peaceful island became a living nightmare.
The mist had an affect on every living thing it contacted, including plants and animals.
Whatever became infected, lost all rational thought.
Even the once ornamental plants became fierce and grew gigantic branches and leaves, snapping at everything that passed by.
Mrs.
Normandy arranged a teleportation array for those still unaffected by the black mist, and together everyone left the island.
Fortunately, Mrs.
Normandy was a competent manager.
Over the years, she had purchased the two smaller islands near Coral Island.
This gave the fisherman and other islanders a place to live in the meantime.
Otherwise they would have had to borrow land from other people.
Who knew how long that would have lasted with so many people displaced? “That’s the way it is.
I don’t know why the black mist is here or how it came about.
Ming Xi, this whole incident is too strange.
You should go back.
How could you be sent here? You’re the next emperor, if something happened to you, even if I die, Auntie won’t be able to pay for her crime.” Mrs.
Normandy said after explaining the matter to Ming Xi.
Mrs.
Normandy sighed as she tried to persuade Ming Xi to not get involved in the matter.
Although, as the owner of Coral Island, she wanted to save the villagers and all the plants and animals from the black mist, she couldn’t let Ming Xi do it.
His identity was too special.
She couldn’t imagine the consequences if something were to happen to him.
“Aunt Normandy doesn’t have confidence in me?” Ming Xi smiled lightly.
The smile was elegant and pure, as if a layer of golden light was shining on his face.
“You know Auntie doesn’t mean it that way...” Normandy frowned and sighed.
She knew Ming Xi wasn’t a child and wouldn’t be persuaded to leave so easily.
“I know that Aunt is worried about me, and I believe Aunt knows I am not someone who will play around.
If it is truly beyond my abilities, I will immediately notify Father Emperor and have him send suitable people over.” “Okay then, you’ve said so.
What else can Auntie do? But you must remember what you said.
If the situation is wrong, come back immediately.” Mrs.
Normandy stepped back and agreed to let Ming Xi leave for Coral Island to investigate the black mist.
While Ming Xi and Mrs.
Normandy were talking, Feng Wu was having lunch with Mrs.
Normandy’s daughter, Ferri.
Lunch was a rich meal consisting of a rare mix of seafood.
Feng Wu ate happily without a care for her image in front of her host.
Ferri had been raised in a strict manner by her mother so she was minutely aware of her image and the importance of maintaining it in front of others.
Her movements, when eating, were precise and clean and could practically be measured with a rule.
The number of times she had to chew her food was ingrained in her bones.
The ladies she came into contact with were all noble ladies like her.
The aristocracy had a common problem.
That was, they cared greatly about their image.
Fearing other’s would think they weren’t noble enough, they went out of their way to show their elegance, grace, and extraordinary taste.
Ferri had only ever seen noble ladies as noble as her.
They were all elegant and graceful, their movements like poetry expressed as a painting.
A woman like Feng Wu, who ate and ate like no tomorrow, was needless to say, a shock to Ferri.
Disdain bloomed in her heart.
Fortunately, Ferri was well-bred and knew better to let it show.
She would never do something rude or vulgar like taunt or curse the other party.
