3269: Feng Wu the Great Actress (1)

Feng Wu the Great Actress (1)

Suddenly, the Peacock King turned its head in Feng Wu's direction.2

Feng Wu had been hiding behind a rock, and she flinched at its stare.

If she remembered correctly, the Peacock King was on Mr. Sakiya's side.

But that wasn't completely true.

In any case, Feng Wu had bribed the peacock with a Semi-Divine pill last time. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to escape after stealing the Immortal Spiritual Fruit.

At that moment, Feng Wu noticed the peacock was mumbling something as it walked.

"Sakiya, why are you so treacherous? You're already gone, but you still set this trap and want me to guard it for you."

Feng Wu thought, "What's that peacock doing?"

The peacock glanced in Feng Wu's direction and continued, "Who are you guarding against? The second prince's men? Poor prince. If his men were here, they'd probably be blown up."

Feng Wu thought, "Who's the second prince?"

The peacock glanced in her direction again. "What a pity. The thief who stole the first Immortal Spiritual Fruit was so smart. She must know you've set a trap here. Do you think your trick will work?"

Feng Wu finally understood.

Before Mr. Sakiya left, he set a trap. She and the second prince's men were his enemies. He didn't care which of them walked into the trap.

Feng Wu looked at the Immortal Spiritual Tree.

The fruit was indeed still on it.

If the Peacock King hadn't said so in advance and she hadn't carefully studied it, she might not have been able to tell that it was a fake Immortal Spiritual Fruit.

This Peacock King was actually quite lovely.

Feng Wu smiled and threw a Semi-Divine pill at it.

With a swoosh, the pill drew an arc in the air. The Peacock King pretended not to be aware of its surroundings, but its body twisted slightly, and it easily caught the Semi-Divine pill with its claw.

After that, the Peacock King quickly hid it in its sleeve.

Its expression remained stoic. It glanced at the Immortal Spiritual Tree and walked back in satisfaction.

Feng Wu dashed off toward Sun Castle.

Although she was now a Semi-Divine medicine refiner, it was still very difficult to refine Semi-Divine pills. The success rate was quite low. Her success rate was already on the higher side, but up until now, she had only saved up a bottle of pills.

The medicinal herbs were difficult to gather.

Luckily, Feng Wu still had some all-purpose transformation liquid.

The liquid worked on magical beasts and plants the same way it did on human beings. Therefore, Feng Wu had been watering her herbs with the liquid, hoping to get some high-quality herbs.

Fearing that she would disturb her beautiful master, Feng Wu didn't plant the herbs in her space. Instead, she planted them in the yard of the general's mansion.

No one would touch the herbs planted there.

As Feng Wu moved through the woods, she mulled over the information the peacock had given her.

The second prince?

Feng Wu had been paying attention only to the talented, showy crown prince, Night Owl, and had forgotten to ask about the other princes.

Feng Wu recalled that the Dongsang Kingdom used a blood tax system.

Once the crown prince ascended the throne, his brothers would all die.

That included the second prince and all his other brothers.
