: The Siblings Ferri and Goffmen Feng Wu ate very fast and in no time at all finished the delicacies on the table.

Ferri laid down her cutlery silently.

She’d only eaten a few bites of the fish and was still hungry.

“I wonder if these foods are to Miss Feng Wu’s taste?” Ferri knew Feng Wu was Ming Xi’s future wife, so even though she looked down on her, she didn’t show any of it on her face or in the way she behaved.

“It’s delicious.” Feng Wu nodded her head seriously.

After some thought she said, “The flavor is bit bland.

Next time you should add some salt.” If the grilled fish had more salt, it would have been even more delicious, thought Feng Wu regretfully.

Ferri...

was silent.

What she expected was a comment along the lines of “The food was delicious, thank you for the hospitality,” but that was not what she got.

Ferri was overwhelmed.

It was the first time in her life meeting someone who offered an opinion so seriously.

“Really? When next we have dinner, I must remind the chef to add more salt.

My family has become accustomed to lighter dishes so the chef makes dishes that suit our tastes.

It was my negligence.

I apologize.” Ferri sincerely apologized to Feng Wu.

Had she been talking to anyone else, the other party would have politely answered back, but who was Feng Wu? This girl never understood the subtleties of social interactions so naturally she wouldn’t say anything polite.

“It’s OK, just pay more attention next time.” Feng Wu said.

Ferri was speechless.

Was it possible to have a proper conversation? She pressed a hand to her forehead.

She was a lady, a noble and elegant lady.

She should not get angry.

When her brother Goffman showed up, she promptly tossed the responsibility of their guest to him and went back to her room under the pretext of feeling unwell and needing rest.

Goffman didn’t understand why his sister was behaving so strangely today.

As the future heir to Coral Island, Goffman had no problems entertaining Feng Wu.

He took her around the island and quickly discovered Feng Wu was obsessed with food.

Her eyes would sparkle whenever he casually pointed out a delicious item.

It wasn’t hard to understand her thoughts.

Goffman was a thoughtful young man.

He immediately took her to see the many different ingredients that could be made into food, then gave her a tour of all the local dishes.

Feng Wu was pleased.

She ate so much her stomach became quite plump.

Of course, she didn’t forget to pack a portion for Ming Xi.

Goffman, looking at the pile of food, felt Ming Xi wouldn’t need to eat dinner or tomorrow’s breakfast with that amount of food.

After all that eating, Goffman said he was full.

And as a responsible host, he took Feng Wu for a constitutional walk on the beach.

Goffman watched silently as Feng Wu caught crabs with a group of children.

Looking at her sparkling eyes, he was willing to bet Feng Wu was thinking about all the different ways to eat the crabs.

“Boo...” Someone suddenly appearing next to him surprised Goffman.

Could you please make some noise when approaching people? Otherwise you’re going to scare them to death! Although he complained in his heart, these people were here to help solve his problem, so he couldn’t roll his eyes at the other party.

“Tian Ya, where did you go just now? I didn’t see you when I took Miss Feng Wu around the island.” Goffman asked.

Tian Ya had accompanied Ming Xi to the island as well.

He was Ming Xi’s personal guard; it was natural for him to want to be by Ming Xi’s side.

Tian Ya disappeared the moment he got on the island and didn’t even show up to have lunch with Feng Wu.

Where had he gone so mysteriously? “I didn’t go anywhere.

I just walked around.” Tian Ya was tightlipped as usual.

It was hard to tell what he was thinking with his cold eyes and emotionless demeanor.

Mrs.

Normandy did not want anything to happen to Ming Xi on the island so she thought of everything.

“Can’t go in the water?” Ming Xi didn’t expect the problem to be so serious that they couldn’t even go into the water to check.

It would be troublesome.

After thinking about it for a moment he asked, “Has this black mist appeared on the nearby islands?” Goffman shook his head.

“No.” They had asked, but so far Coral Island was the only island with the black mist.

“Did anything strange happen before the black mist appeared?” Goffman shook his head again.

Things wouldn’t be so difficult now if they detected abnormalities earlier.

“Let’s go look around first.

The black mist couldn’t have appeared without a reason.

It must be because of something we don’t know about.” Though there weren’t any clues, Ming Xi wasn’t disappointed.

He asked Goffman to lead the way, intending to check around the island first.

Feng Wu obediently followed behind Ming Xi, but as she did so, Xiao Chun moved inside her dantian.

Leave here now, get out.

It’s way too dangerous! Xiao Chun’s childish voice suddenly sounded in her mind.

It was rare to hear tension and anxiety in his voice.

Feng Wu asked what was wrong.

Xiao Chun replied telepathically with: There is something wrong with this place.

I feel a strong aura surrounding this island.

I don’t know where the aura is coming from, but I know it’s dangerous.

You can’t handle it.

Feng Wu: You can’t deal with it either? Xiao Chun: No, most of my purification abilities are determined by you.

The previous things were easily purified because their master’s level was not as high.

But the aura of this thing is too high.

I can’t purify it.

This place is beyond your strength, not until you reach Holy level at least! Xiao Chun’s voice came urgent and fast, quite out of character for him.

Xiao Chun tried desperately to persuade Feng Wu to leave; whatever was here was beyond their abilities.

Feng Wu was his master and she was still in her growth stage so he was limited.

His purification powers weren’t at their peak yet.

“What’s wrong?” Ming Xi asked worriedly when he saw Feng Wu’s expression change slightly.

“There is danger here.

We should leave quickly.” Feng Wu wholeheartedly believed Xiao Chun’s judgement.

She didn’t hesitate to believe those she trusted and Xiao Chun had been a good friend and partner for a long time.

Feng Wu looked seriously at Ming Xi, hoping they could leave as soon as possible.

“No, I promised Mother Emperor I would help Aunt Normandy with the problem on Coral Island.

I can’t leave yet.

Are you afraid? Do you want me to have someone escort you back to Aunt Normandy?” Feng Wu shook her head.

She wouldn’t leave if Ming Xi wasn’t leaving too.

She wanted to stay with Ming Xi! “Why don’t I send someone to take Miss Feng Wu back to my mother first? The environment here is really not appropriate for young ladies.” Goffman said.

When Ming Xi said he would bring Feng Wu with them, Goffman had disagreed.

He heard Ming Xi say during the introductions that Feng Wu was a second-year at Xingguang Holy academy.

Her strength couldn’t be very strong and the island was so dangerous.

Bringing a girl like that would only get in everyone’s way! He enthusiastically stepped forward and suggested escorting her back.

Feng Wu shook her head.

“No, I will follow Ming Xi.” Ming Xi patted her little head and didn’t say anything else more about the matter.

On his end, Goffman was really disappointed; just when he thought they could get rid of Feng Wu...

The mutated creatures on the island were sensitive to sound and he was afraid Feng Wu would shriek when something unexpected happened.

Women were without a doubt the loudest creatures when surprised.

He wasn’t worried about the men he brought along doing anything to arouse the hostility of the mutated creatures on the island.

Everyone was briefed on the characteristics of the mutated creatures and plants, so they knew what to be careful of.

The only concern Goffman had was Feng Wu.

She didn’t seem like the talkative type, but just because she didn’t talk didn’t mean she wouldn’t scream.

The whole team’s safety could be compromised by her.
