Chapter 97. Gongsun Gege, You’re So Kind
On the highway by the fields.
The woman, dressed in a chiffon long skirt and a beige beret tilted to the side, raised her eyes, her violet pupils meeting Xia Feng’s gaze from afar.
Xia Feng gave her a polite nod and continued to speak with the Woman in Red Dress beside him.
Cha Nai Xue pursed her lips, her gaze somewhat complicated.
When she emerged from seclusion last month, she had intended to discuss the cultivation of ‘Dual Moon’ with Xia Feng. However, as soon as she came out, her subordinate presented her with a great gift, which thoroughly offended Xia Feng.
Because of this, since the just duel, she had to abandon the idea of seeking Xia Feng’s help and returned to the Moon Dew Lotus Pool for seclusion.
Unfortunately, no matter how she analyzed the ‘Moon God Domain,’ she couldn’t grasp its essence. Although she methodically deciphered all sorts of complex structures, her progress ranked third among the four Saintess candidates, and the gap with the second place was only widening.
The top two were both cultivating the dual moon path.
She, along with the fourth-ranked candidate, cultivated the solitary moon path, falling far behind.
She realized then that she had overestimated her own abilities. While the solitary moon path was generally easier to learn later on, it required surviving the early stages first.
“Master, that woman is looking at you,” Yin’s stiff, low voice rang out.
Cha Nai Xue looked over and met the gaze of the black-dressed woman beside Xia Feng.
She naturally recognized Mu Qingtong; she was the fiancée she had introduced to Xia Feng.
Seeing Xia Feng chattering away beside this black-dressed woman, it seemed… he really liked this woman?
As she was contemplating, the black-dressed woman’s beautiful eyes curved gently, and she gave Cha Nai Xue a polite nod before naturally looking away.
“Master, she seems to be provoking you,” Yin’s stiff, low voice spoke again.
“…”
Cha Nai Xue ignored her subordinate’s interpretation and was about to step forward when a saccharine voice came from behind her.
“Gongsun Gege~ Look quickly, those two older sisters are so beautiful~”
“Beautiful? I think they’re just so-so. Not as beautiful as our Lina, my treasure~” the man’s deep voice said gently.
“Gongsun Gege, you’re so kind~~”
The woman’s affected, cloying voice made Cha Nai Xue’s eyelids twitch. She wanted to walk forward quickly to distance herself from the two behind her.
But the woman behind her suddenly spoke again, her voice娇声 filled with doubt:
“Naisue Older Sister, I heard your Moon God Domain hasn’t even started yet? Is that true?”
Cha Nai Xue stopped helplessly, looked back, and spoke coldly, “What guidance does Lady You Lina have?”
The woman before her was You Lina, a Saintess candidate from the Northern Territory, whose cultivation progress ranked second.
You Lina bit her lip, her heavily made-up face looking pitiful, “Sister, don’t be so cold. I came to help you~”
Saying this, she tugged at the man’s sleeve beside her and pouted coquettishly, “Gege~ Naisue Older Sister hasn’t started yet, she’s so pitiful. Why don’t you help her?”
The man had deep, charming peach blossom eyes and a gentle smile that always made people feel at ease. He looked indifferently at Cha Nai Xue:
“Miss Nai Xue, if you wish for it, I can lend you a hand with a spirit artifact.”
“No need,” Cha Nai Xue’s eyes turned slightly cold, her words concise and comprehensive.
This guy before her was Gongsun Ze, You Lina’s dual moon partner. His spirit artifact could help other spirit masters improve their comprehension of spirit robes, but it required performing some disgusting acts. Because of this, You Lina’s cultivation progress was very fast, leaving her far behind.
Cha Nai Xue didn’t want to interact further with these two, so she turned to leave.
Watching the snow-skirt woman’s retreating back, a flash of cold light crossed You Lina’s eyes, and she sneered, “This woman really doesn’t know what’s good for her, putting on airs like this.” “Gege~ Don’t you think so~” she said, hugging Gongsun Ze’s arm, her small face, slightly losing its cutesy tone, speaking coquettishly.
Gongsun Ze’s deep peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled reassuringly, “Yes, yes, my little treasure. When the time comes, Gege will help you punish her properly!”
“Gongsun Gege, you’re the best~”
Gongsun Ze’s deep peach blossom eyes calmly watched Cha Nai Xue’s departing figure. This was the first time he had encountered such a carefree and arrogant woman who wasn’t swayed by his looks at all.
He shook his head and chuckled, a smile curving his lips, “She’s really a cute little wildcat~”

“Hey, Master, where are you going?”
The female knight clad in silver armor quickly followed Cha Nai Xue’s footsteps.
The two soon arrived in front of everyone from the Holy Department.
Cha Nai Xue blocked Xia Feng’s path and said gently, “Little Feng, come with me for a moment. I have something to discuss with you.”
Xia Feng didn’t expect Cha Nai Xue to seek him out and shook his head, “. Let’s just say it here.”
!
Seeing that Xia Feng was giving her no face at all, Cha Nai Xue pursed her lips and fell silent.
“Kui Hua, what are you standing there for?” Daoist Chen kicked Cai Kuihua’s backside, “Go to the trunk and get the equipment.”
“Ah? Oh…” Cai Kuihua came to her senses and quickly followed Chen Xingdao towards the off-road vehicle, not forgetting to glance back and mutter enviously,
“Damn it! Who is this Brother Xia? How can even Cha Nai Xue be related to him…”
Seeing the two walk away, Cha Nai Xue turned her gaze back to the black-dressed woman beside Xia Feng.
“Do you need me to leave?” Mu Qingtong glanced at Xia Feng indifferently.
Xia Feng: “No.”
Cha Nai Xue: “…”
She then looked at the Woman in Red Dress beside them. With a charming, foxy face, she looked somewhat familiar.
“Who is this?” she asked, confused.
Princess Consort blinked, her expression calm, and introduced herself with her chest puffed out, “My name is Yue Hongli, and I am Master’s maid.”
“Yue, Hongli?!”
Cha Nai Xue immediately reacted. Isn’t this the Earl’s wife? How did she get involved with Xia Feng? What happened while I was in seclusion?
Seeing Cha Nai Xue dithering, Xia Feng said helplessly, “If you have something to say, say it quickly.”
Cha Nai Xue lowered her eyelids, took a deep breath, and said earnestly in a deep voice, “Little Feng, I want to ask you to cultivate Moon—”
“No discussion.”
“…I haven’t even said what it is yet!” Cha Nai Xue was losing her patience, pursing her lips and glaring at the man before her.
“Even if you don’t say it, I know. It’s the Moon God Domain, isn’t it.”
Xia Feng shook his head. Thinking of Yan Xujia’s matter, he had no good attitude towards her. “Cha Nai Xue, you haven’t apologized for what happened last time. Even if you apologize, I might not accept it, but for you to come here asking for my help is simply too much.”
