Chapter 394: Did you really think Her Highness wouldn't dare to kill you?

Jiang Feng heard that, and his eyebrows instantly twisted into a knot.

In that indifferent voice, there was not a trace of the former softness, but rather a bone‑piercing murderous intent.

He had no doubt that if he took another step forward, the person inside the house could take his life without hesitation.

But why is this?

The old Xi Er was clearly timid whenever she saw anyone.

How did she suddenly become so unfamiliar?

Could it be that Xi Er's very temperament has completely changed?

Jiang Feng stood in place, and for a moment he truly didn't know what to do.

At that moment, an aged figure sauntered over slowly—it was Yao Lao.

The moment Yao Lao saw Jiang Feng, his eyes instantly brightened.

"Jiang Feng! I heard Tie Zhan say you woke up? That's wonderful!"

Saying that, Yao Lao glanced at the door of Xi Er's house and said knowingly.

"Seeing your stance, you're here to look for Xi Er, aren't you?"

Jiang Feng turned his head toward Yao Lao, hurried forward a step, and asked anxiously.

"Yao Lao! You finally came! I heard Tie Zhan say Xi Er seems to have had some trouble; what exactly happened to her?"

"Just now I tried to go in to see her, and she not only wouldn't let me approach, she said she would kill me—what on earth is going on!"

Hearing Jiang Feng's words, the smile on Yao Lao's face vanished instantly.

He let out a heavy sigh,

"Alas, you're right; Xi Er truly has become different from before, as if she were a different person."

Jiang Feng felt a tightening in his heart.

"What exactly happened? How did she become like this?"

"The precise details, Old brother, I am not fully clear on."

Yao Lao looked up at the door, his gaze complicated.

"Since Xi Er activated the Primordial Unity Array, things have changed, and she should have obtained the Divine Farmer Emperor's Legacy…"

"Divine Farmer Emperor?"

Jiang Feng's pupils snapped shut sharply.

Yao Lao nodded, his tone heavy.

"When Xi Er emerged from the Primordial Unity Array, her cultivation instantly surged to the Martial Ancestor Realm! Not even Luo Tiantu's death matters; even if Luo Tiantu were alive, he would likely still be unable to threaten Xi Er."

"Wu Zun Realm?"

Jiang Feng couldn't help but draw in a breath of cold air.

Xi Er had become a Martial Ancestor Strongman overnight?

This is even more absurd than a tale from Arabian Nights!

"Old brother didn't dare believe it at first, but the fact is just so."

Yao Lao gave a wry smile.

Saying that, Yao Lao looked at Jiang Feng, his tone carrying a hint of admonition.

"Jiang Feng, you'd better not disturb her now. Even Old brother finds her very unfamiliar; approaching her at this moment will likely bring no good."

As soon as Yao Lao finished speaking, an extreme chill descended without warning, instantly enveloping the entire courtyard.

Jiang Feng felt a chill run through his body and instinctively looked up.

He saw the door creak open, and a white figure slowly stepped out.

It was Xi Er.

She still had that delicate face, but her aura was completely different from before.

A pure white long dress moved without wind, surrounded by a faint white mist.

She exuded an aloof, lofty chill, like a celestial being untouched by mortal smoke, bearing a majesty that made others dare not stare directly.

Her gaze was calm and still, yet like ice that never melts over ten thousand years.

Wherever she passed, even the air seemed to solidify into ice.

Jiang Feng, seeing Xi Er, instinctively wanted to step forward.

"Xi Er!"

But the instant he lifted his foot, Xi Er gave him a cold glance.

Just a single glance made Jiang Feng feel as if an invisible mountain were crushing him, his steps unable to move a single inch.

A powerful oppressive pressure slammed into his face, choking his chest severely; he couldn't help but retreat several steps, his throat turning sweet, even spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Jiang Feng clutched his chest, his face full of disbelief.

Just one glance, and he got injured?

Is this the power of a Martial Ancestor Strongman?

Before he could recover his senses, Xi Er's icy voice rang out.

"Since you don't belong here, you should have left earlier."

"Earlier you saved the Divine Farmer lineage; Her Highness also saved your life. Between us and the Divine Farmer lineage there is now no debt, and we are clear from now on."

Hearing this, Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, his heart a swirl of mixed feelings.

Yao Lao, seeing this, hurried forward a step and cupped his hands to Xi Er, saying.

"Saintess, Jiang Feng has received the approval of the Medicine God Cauldron. Without him, the cauldron's divinity could not have recovered by thirty percent; for the Divine Farmer lineage, he is also a person of great merit."

He said this while giving Jiang Feng a look, urging him not to act rashly.

He could hear Yao Lao's words, but Xi Er gave a cold smile.

With Her Highness here, the Medicine God Cauldron no longer needs to rely on others. The things of the Shennong lineage will naturally be guarded by those of the Shennong lineage...

She paused, then coldly added a sentence.

Outsiders will always be outsiders.

Jiang Feng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face full of helplessness.

Xi Er, what on earth has happened to you?

He couldn't believe that Xi Er would truly become this cold and heartless all of a sudden.

But just as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in Xi Er's eyes, and she struck out with a backward palm.

An invisible palm wind instantly condensed, carrying terrifying power, and slammed heavily into Jiang Feng's body.

Jiang Feng had no time to dodge, feeling only a huge force slam into his chest.

His whole body was like a kite with its string cut, blown away dozens of meters.

Impudent!

Xi Er's voice was ice-cold and piercing to the bone.

You are not worthy to call Her Highness's name! Her Highness is the Saintess of the Shennong lineage, holding the Shennong heritage. Show some respect to Her Highness, or next time won't be so simple!

The killing intent in her eyes was not concealed at all.

Having said that, Xi Er didn't spare Jiang Feng another glance, turned and walked deep into the small courtyard.

When she reached the gate, she stopped and coldly ordered Yao Lao.

Her Highness does not want to see this person again; before sunset, let him leave Taoyuan Village. Otherwise, kill without mercy.

As her words fell, her figure vanished into the depths of the small courtyard.

Yao Lao watched Xi Er's disappearing back, sighing helplessly.

Jiang Feng, she is no longer the Xi Er she once was; you had better leave quickly...

Jiang Feng's face turned pale, feeling waves of intense pain in his chest.

He gasped, asking.

Yao Lao, she... she really won't change back, will she?

It's hard, too hard.

Yao Lao shook his head, his eyes complex.

Now Xi Er's heart holds only the rise and fall of the Shennong lineage; other things are no longer important to her.

He patted Jiang Feng's shoulders.

Jiang Feng, listen to Old Brother's advice: you had better leave first. Xi Er... no, the Saintess has already shown you mercy just now; if you remain here, she will really kill you.

Yao Lao originally thought that after saying this, Jiang Feng would be sensible and leave, but he didn't expect Jiang Feng to get up and say.

Then let her kill me, after all, my life was saved by her.

Saying that, Jiang Feng lifted his foot, about to go inside.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

And almost at the same moment, countless Cold Spikes suddenly appeared, hovering before Jiang Feng, filled with killing intent.

Jiang Feng, do you really think Her Highness dares not to kill you?
