Chapter 689 [Listen to the Phoenix 25]
In order to successfully get the extremely precious Blue Water and Blue Sky Bottle from Jun Linyuan, Feng Wu racked her brains and thought of every possible way. At first, she tried to get Jun Linyuan drunk and then take the bottle away, but the plan ended in failure.
When one plan failed, another one came up. The clever Feng Wu decided to change her strategy. So, she carefully selected some small and exquisite gifts for Jun Linyuan, hoping to impress him. Not only that, she also personally beat Jun Linyuan's back and massaged him, trying her best to please him. However, what disappointed Feng Wu was that no matter how hard she tried, Jun Linyuan remained unmoved, as cold and ruthless as an iceberg.
Faced with Jun Linyuan's hard-heartedness, Feng Wu gnashed her teeth in anger, her heart burning with rage. At this moment, even when her favorite Feng tea, brewed by Qiu Ling herself, was placed in front of her, she had no interest in it at all and had no desire to taste it at all.
At this time, Xuan Yi found that Jun Linyuan's matter had been resolved. In a good mood, he immediately began to prepare for the most important event in his life - a grand wedding with his beloved Youyou. He first sent a sincere invitation to his grandfather, Fang Lao Lingzong, inviting the old man to come to the Biluo Palace to witness their happy moment. At the same time, he did not forget to send invitations to his friends Jun Linyuan, Feng Xun and Feng Wu.
When everything was arranged, Xuanyi and Youyou returned to the Biluo Palace with great joy and began to prepare for the upcoming dream wedding. The entire Biluo Palace was filled with joy and anticipation, and everyone was sending the best wishes to the newlyweds.
Feng Wu, wearing a lavender dress, gracefully strolled with Qiu Ling in the bustling market. The market was very lively, with all kinds of hawking and bargaining sounds intertwined, filled with a strong atmosphere of life.
However, at this moment, a burst of terrified shouts suddenly rang out. A mad horse with shaggy hair and red eyes was seen running through the crowd without any scruples like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins. People panicked and fled in all directions, and the scene instantly fell into chaos.
A man who was working under the eaves of a street was frightened by the sudden change and fell straight down from a high ladder. The man's body fell rapidly in the air, and there was an ignorant child standing not far below, completely unaware of the danger that was about to come.
In a flash, Feng Wu saw this scene, her heart tightened, and without the slightest hesitation, she flew towards the child, wanting to protect him with her body. At this critical moment, a figure flashed out like a ghost.
The person who came was an old man wearing a bamboo hat. He waved his sleeves lightly, and a powerful spiritual power gushed out instantly, like a soft but tough shield, steadily catching the man falling from the sky. At the same time, the old man made hand seals and muttered something. The mad horse that was originally raging wildly seemed to be restrained by some mysterious power, gradually calmed down, and finally stopped where it was.
The person who helped was none other than the famous immortal spirit boy Wu Youdao. He came to Yuandu this time to shoulder an important task - he was about to take up the post of dean of Junwu Academy. As for his arrival, the Queen Mother Gao, who had already known about it, personally took a gorgeous sedan chair and led a group of attendants out of the city to welcome him.
But in this situation, Wu Youdao obviously could not go to the city gate to meet with the Holy Queen as originally planned, but had to go directly to the Junwu Temple to pay homage to the Holy King. After hearing the news, the Holy Queen had no choice but to order everyone to turn the sedan chair around and go back home.
However, despite Wu Youdao's rejection, Empress Gao Sheng's desire to win him over did not die. In the solemn and majestic Junwu Temple, Empress Gao Sheng stared at Wu Youdao with a burning gaze, and her tone was full of earnestness: "Wu Youdao, I heard that you have superb spiritual skills. Can you show your skills here today?" This seemingly ordinary request actually concealed Empress Gao Sheng's deep meaning.
But how could Wu Youdao be easily swayed by power? He stood tall like a pine tree, his expression firm as iron, and refused without hesitation: "Thank you for your kindness, Holy Queen, but my spiritual skills are so shallow that I cannot show my ugliness to you."
Wu Youdao was an upright and stubborn person. He always scoffed at flattery and currying favor with the powerful. In his eyes, Empress Gao Sheng's tactics of winning over the emperor were nothing but passing clouds.
At the same time, Jun Linyuan also longed to get Wu Youdao's help. After all, in this turbulent situation, more strength means more chances of winning.
However, Fang Lao Lingzong, who had known Wu Youdao for many years, kindly reminded Jun Linyuan: "Your Highness, Wu Youdao is a man of upright character. If you deliberately try to win him over, I'm afraid it will backfire." Jun Linyuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought when he heard this.
Back to the topic, Jun Linyuan mentioned the matter of enrolling in Junwu College to Fengwu again. This time, he changed his usual tough attitude and spoke in a negotiating tone. You know, Fengwu is famous for being soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. Seeing Jun Linyuan like this, her resistance to him was slightly reduced.
In fact, Feng Wu, who was extremely intelligent, had a clear mind. She knew that entering Junwu College might be the only way for her to collect star fragments. So when she heard Jun Linyuan's words, she did not reject them outright as she had done before.
What Feng Wu never expected was that Jun Linyuan seemed to have seen through her inner thoughts. He smiled slightly, took out a pile of books from behind him like a magic trick, handed them to Feng Wu and said, "As long as you memorize all these books, the written test will be a piece of cake."
Looking at the mountain of books in front of her, Feng Wu couldn't help but widen her eyes and secretly groan in her heart.
Feng Wu, who was almost collapsed from studying, felt like her head was filled with a mess, and she was in a state of extreme anxiety. At this moment, a piece of news came to her ears like a life-saving straw - Yu Mingye told her that Wu Youdao, Fang Lao Lingzong and Dean Ning were all old acquaintances of Old Man Ba!
This discovery instantly perked up Feng Wu. As smart as she was, she immediately came up with a brilliant idea. She knew that Wu Youdao and Fang Lao Lingzong would quarrel whenever they met, so she decided to use this cleverly. After careful planning, Feng Wu drew an exquisite acupuncture point meridian map.
When facing Wu Youdao, Feng Wu smiled and said in a flattering tone: "Teacher Wu, this is the acupuncture point and meridian map I drew specially for you. It contains my deep respect and gratitude for you." When Wu Youdao heard it, he immediately smiled and put the map into his arms without hesitation.
When she arrived at the place of Master Fang, Feng Wu pretended to be aggrieved and cried pitifully, "Grandpa Fang, I was going to give you this picture, but who knew that the abominable Wu Youdao would snatch it away by force!" Master Fang was furious when he heard this, and without saying a word, he went to Wu Youdao to argue.
As soon as the two met, as Feng Wu had expected, they immediately started a fierce quarrel. Not only that, they also started fighting, each exerting powerful spiritual power, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
However, all this was in Feng Wu's plan. While the two were fighting, Feng Wu quietly hid aside and secretly observed their every move. She focused on the techniques and skills of the two people in exerting their spiritual power, not missing any details. Gradually, Feng Wu began to understand some tricks and essences about the use of spiritual power.
Just like that, through this clever method, Feng Wu successfully learned valuable knowledge from the fight between the two predecessors, laying a solid foundation for improving her cultivation in the future.
