A tired sigh was heard in a beautiful place. A huge garden and a large beautiful pond adorned the place, making it wonderful and beautiful to look at.

A figure sitting in a lotus position sighed tiredly before opening her eyes. Her beautiful white hair flashing like a light silver glow in the sunlight showed a mysterious and exotic loveliness.

"How?" Another figure nearby sitting by a small table asked in an evidently worried voice, looking at the young figure sitting on the soft grass.

The eyelids twitched slightly before opening her eyes to reveal extremely beautiful eyes, but with a face that was completely pale, tired and even sickly but still retained vestiges of what had once been stunning beauty. Her body wasn't much better either; her skin was pale and even a bit dry, as if the age of old age was showing its arrival towards the end...

"I feel like my cultivation essence will turn wild in the next moment and won't let me go on, mother..."

Feng Zhiyun replied in an evidently tired voice, looking with a somewhat helpless and guilty expression at her mother who was looking at her with sadness and worry. However, no one could discover that behind that nervous look there was a strange indifference, an indifference towards death, as if she didn't care about dying...

"Yun'er..." A deeper sadness filled Feng Qiangxun's eyes as she saw Feng Zhiyun's tired and guilty look, as if she feared that she would be disappointed in her upon seeing her in this state. Her expression also showed a sad and colorless tinge, though there was still no hiding the beauty in her face, attracting a trace of sorrow and sympathy for her. Her appearance was that of a young woman in her early 30s, but now she looked as if she had aged a little more due to her children's worries, pain and sadness...

"Don't worry, mother..." Feng Zhiyun looked at Feng Qiangxun, smiling faintly and say, "Even if my time comes, I won't stop trying. Besides, if I don't succeed, you don't feel bad, I will be watching you from the mysteries of heaven, supporting you from above." Her gaze became honest and strangely confident. There was no sign in her eyes of loss or regret, as if she was casually talking about something normal.

Feng Qiangxun could not help but feel her heart torn at the sight of her daughter's state. Several tears formed in her eyes and one of them inevitably rolled down her cheek. She stood up and approached Feng Zhiyun, hugging her gently and lovingly, but trembling slightly. Motherly love poured into Feng Zhiyun, who smiled gratefully and felt full of love and warmth.

"By the way, Grandpa Ye came back a long time ago and Xiao'er told me that Grandpa was busy, but I really haven't seen Grandpa since he arrived." Feng Zhiyun asked with mild curiosity, wanting to divert the matter and distract her mother, "I even felt that Xiao'er changed a lot..."

"Father Ye?" Feng Qiangxun blinked and the sadness and pain in her lessened a little before she said, "I think your grandfather had something very important to do. Xiao'er is concentrating cultivating in his room, since he arrived he seems to have changed by focusing a lot unlike in the past, what must have happened to the brat? They even came with those people who had no cultivation base."

Feng Qiangxun thought about her son, Feng Xiao, realizing that he really seemed to have changed on this trip with the grandfather Feng Ye. They also noticed that both Feng Ye and Feng Xiao brought what seemed like a family of 5 members, letting them stay in one of the best indoor personal courtyards only belonging to the family and giving them many cultivation resources...

"Even father was also surprised to notice Xiao'er's behavior. But it's good that Xiao'er has matured much more and understood that he needs to cultivate in both power and mind." Feng Zhiyun commented on her younger brother.

"Xiao'er knows about the importance of his cultivation, but he had never focused so much on cultivation before... with the talent of each of you, you wouldn't have so much pressure and would advance easily unlike the others." Feng Qiangxun added as well, finally smiling slightly at the thought of her son's behavior. She and her husband, Feng Junze, had noticed the difference in their son, Feng Xiao, when he returned with Feng Ye. Although they wanted to ask Feng Ye about what they found on the trip and made Feng Xiao change, they only saw Feng Ye lock himself in the alchemy room with the most skilled master alchemists without saying a word.

Feng Zhiyun smiled slightly at the thought of Feng Xiao, feeling that something good had happened to him on this trip with their grandfather.

Huh?

"Who?!"

Feng Zhiyun circulating her cultivation essence once again, tensed up the next moment and turned to look in a specific direction, sensing someone's presence in that place.

Feng Qiangxun was surprised to notice her daughter's reaction and she also looked in that direction. Without delaying for a second, her cultivation essence circulated at a surprising speed to attack as she thought of the probability that someone had sneaked into this place.

A figure soon quietly appeared a few meters away near them, showing himself completely but with his gaze only on Feng Zhiyun, as if he had found something surprising. He only stood there without moving forward or saying anything else, as if stupefied at the sight of Feng Zhiyun.

But a powerful suppressive force spread throughout the place covering every part of the space and the next moment a cultivation essence giant hand materialized, capturing this figure in less than a second!

The next moment, both Feng Zhiyun and Feng Qiangxun were shocked to see the face of this intruder, turning dazed as shock and surprise hit them.

This intruder was a young man of about 20-23 years old in appearance!

But what surprised them most was that this young man was very handsome and almost perfect in the definition of beauty in men!

Was it a natural illusion or were they under an attack of the soul?

Although it was not the first time they had seen handsome men, they still could not compare to this man in front of both of them. Even this man had short hair unlike all the others, as if he came from a different time and space...

"Who are you! How dare you sneak into this place?! Don't you know this is private place?!"

Feng Qiangxun soon came out of her daze and faced this young man, glaring at him coldly and questioning him furiously. Her domain might added more suppression and the cultivation essence giant hand became more fierce, suppressing the young man intensely.

Feng Zhiyun also looked at this person and frowned in annoyance, seeing that this young man of a similar age to her seemed to slink away and sneak a glance at her. She couldn't help but watch this man more, really wondering what he would say or what he was thinking as she noticed that surprised look in his eyes.

'Another man who only thinks with his lower half... it's a waste of the handsome in him.' Feng Zhiyun couldn't help but think about this. All the men she knew always looked at her that way, drooling and lusting after her for her beauty and not for her personality or feelings.

Although now most of her beauty had faded and there was barely a little bit left, still Feng Zhiyun portrayed some past beauty.

But the next moment, Feng Zhiyun was stunned to realize that out of nowhere she had felt this man's presence while her mother had not! What did that mean? How could she sense that he was there unlike her mother? And that's without adding that she couldn't really use her cultivation force, being in a state similar to a crippled person!

Feng Zhiyun could only say that her own Chi seemed to resonate with this person's presence, being able to sense his imperceptible breath and even his presence completely. But when she stopped circulating her cultivation essence, she could no longer feel any trace of him, simply relying on her eyes to see him.

Feng Qiangxun also thought the same as Feng Zhiyun. How could she let an intruder sneak into her daughter's personal courtyard just like that? She wouldn't let anything bad happen to her daughter!

Besides... how could she not notice this person's presence until this moment? With her cultivation base she could detect almost any presence near them!

The tension in the atmosphere reached a suffocating point, no one moving even an inch as they stood at the ready, as if they were watching for the opponent's movement and reacting the next moment.

Ling Tian was still somewhat surprised, with his gaze on Feng Zhiyun as he thought about many things.
