Chapter 2229: Untitled

After helping Jun Linyuan lie down, Feng Wu wanted to stand up, but Jun Linyuan wouldn’t let go of her skirt.

His grip was so tight that she couldn’t pry his hand open.

“Miss Feng…” Feng felt sorry for her and tried to save her from the struggle. “Please sit down. What do you need? I’ll get it for you.”

“That’s right, Xiao Wu, just stay where you are,” said Feng Xun.

Just then, they heard footsteps outside.

It was Gao, the eunuch.

He was there to bring Feng Wu to Emperor Wu.

Feng Wu didn’t want to go because she knew that Emperor Wu wanted to know what had happened on the mountain and about the revival list.

She could see from the log that some of the members were dead, but Emperor Wu couldn’t, which was where the problem lay.

Moreover, she didn’t have any leads at the moment.

Now wasn’t the best time to see Emperor Wu.

Hence, Feng Wu pointed at Jun Linyuan and told Gao, “His Royal Highness is still in danger. If I don’t keep an eye on him, he might not make it.”

Gao didn’t dare take such a risk and scurried off.

Feng Xun gave her the thumbs up. “That was amazing, lying to Gao. Many influential men can’t wait to suck up to him, you know.”

Feng Wu said grumpily, “If I don’t lie to him, I’ll have to go to the emperor now; what am I supposed to tell him? I don’t have the revival list or any leads.”

“By the way, didn’t you say that there’s something off about this jade pendant?” asked Feng Xun.

Feng Wu nodded. “Yes; it’s a storage jade.”

Feng Xun asked, “What?”

Feng Wu said, “But it’s only a small one, no bigger than the size of a bucket.”

Feng Xun said, “A storage jade? Even if the space is only the size of a bucket, it’s worth a fortune!”

Feng Wu asked, “Is it that valuable?”

Feng Xun said, “Of course! All storage jade pendants are. Many people need them to keep secret documents or materials. It’s not something one can buy with money!”

He looked keenly at the jade pendant in Feng Wu’s hand.

Feng Wu asked, “Do you want it?”

Feng Xun took it without hesitation. “Sure!”

Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.

“But how do I open it?” Feng Xun fumbled with it for quite a while but still couldn’t open it.

Feng Wu said, “Most of the time, it’ll recognize its master by tasting their blood.”

Blood?

Before Feng Wu could say anything else, Feng Xun bit his finger and dripped his blood on the jade.

They waited for the miraculous moment, but —

Nothing happened.

The drop of blood rolled around on the jade before falling to the ground.

The jade didn’t change, and the storage space didn’t open either.

Feng Xun was bewildered. “Is it possible that it’s just an ordinary jade pendant? Did you make a mistake?”

Feng Wu stared at him. “I can detect the size of the storage space. How can I be wrong?”

Feng Xun said in frustration. “How should I open it, then?”

Feng Wu took the pendant and examined it, but she couldn’t find anything. She then closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and blocked out all unnecessary thoughts.
