Perhaps due to the disturbance, Feng Fuce’s face carried displeasure, making his cold jade-like features even more handso.
"Speak." He looked indifferently at Lu Wang.
Lu Wang hesitated for a mont, then said, "I have been away from the Heavenly Court for a long ti, fearing that the group of Immortal Officials might beco suspicious. If Lord Demon currently does not need my help, I would like to return to the Heavenly Court first."
These past few days, accompanying Bai Zhi’er, Feng Fuce nearly forgot that Lu Wang ca down without permission.
He contemplated for a mont, then nodded: "Okay."
Lu Wang’s eyes showed a hint of joy.
He wondered if that foolish Immortal Fairy was still watering the Xiangsi Tree every day.
Just as Lu Wang was about to turn and leave, Feng Fuce said, "Wait."
He turned around, only to find Feng Fuce’s eyes suddenly turned red, like a cold fla.
The young man waved his sleeve, and a purple elixir suddenly appeared on the table.
"Lord Demon... this is?" Lu Wang frowned.
Feng Fuce’s tone was calm: "Shattering Bone Pill. This ti when you return to the Heavenly Court, find a way to make the Heavenly Dao take it. Even if he only takes half a pill, it will achieve the effect I want."
Lu Wang was shocked.
The Shattering Bone Pill, as its na suggests, is the Demon Clan’s most superior poison.
Legend has it that if a mortal accidentally ingests it, they would turn into a puddle of blood.
And if an Immortal eats it, their Immortal Bones would shatter, turning them into re mortals.
Lu Wang thought that Feng Fuce was living comfortably in the mortal world, having forgotten the grand revenge of the Demon Clan.
In the past, Lu Wang was passionate about seeking revenge against the Heavenly Court.
But now...
Feng Fuce saw that Lu Wang was silent and sullen.
He raised an eyebrow faintly: "What, do you have objections?"
Lu Wang cupped his hands: "I have a puzzlent that I don’t understand. I am not close to the Heavenly Dao, and given the depth of Heavenly Dao Power, even if Lord Demon injures him, he’s not soone I can easily poison."
"Since that’s the case, how should I secretly administer the pill to the Heavenly Dao?"
Feng Fuce did not speak, just leaned back in his chair, his deanor leisurely, noble as he played with the jade ring on his hand.
"Lu Wang, are you testing ?" The young man’s eyes flashed with dark red.
Lu Wang hurriedly kneeled on the ground: "I wouldn’t dare."
Feng Fuce sneered: "Wouldn’t dare? Yet you still ask knowingly. You are already familiar with A ruo, she is close to the Heavenly Dao, and you still ask how to administer the poison to the Heavenly Dao?"
The young man’s presence was fierce, as if the room suddenly turned windy, making Lu Wang feel a chilling coldness.
Lu Wang bowed his head: "It was my fault."
He instinctively thought he shouldn’t involve A ruo.
But now Lu Wang forcibly made himself clear-minded again.
How could he let down Lord Demon for the sake of a newly acquainted Immortal Fairy!
Lu Wang’s voice was dull, neither happy nor sad: "I will do my utmost to accomplish what you have instructed, my lord."
Feng Fuce’s calm and cold eyes were like an abyss, he stared at Lu Wang for a mont before waving his hand: "Dismissed."
Evening.
Bai Zhi’er ca back from the Imperial Study Room with food and drink.
Seeing Qingi with the little palace Servants weaving bamboo cages under the corridor, and putting sugar cubes inside.
The little one’s eyes lit up, and she quickly ran over.
"Sister Qingi, are you making sothing delicious and new?"
Bai Zhi’er saw that each palm-sized bamboo cage contained a shiny sugar cube, and the little one’s mouth watered.
Qingi and the palace Servants laughed.
"No, Your Highness, these are for the fireflies to eat."
"Fireflies? Lightning bugs?"
"Yes." Qingi nodded: "Today is the Chasing Moon Festival, and everyone is catching fireflies. I told you earlier this morning, didn’t I, Princess?"
