One of my fairy-like friends

"Really? It suits you perfectly, it looks especially good on you." Yue Qingying smiled. This golden bracelet was indeed extremely suitable for Huang Feiyan, and the fit was very good.

"Thank you..." Huang Feiyan smiled. Her mother had told her that these two golden bracelets were a gift from Mingyan's still-living adult king to her and her mother. In Huang Feiyan's understanding, these two golden bracelets were equivalent to a betrothal gift from Mingyan's family.

Although I don't quite understand why my mother also has a gold bracelet, she looks very beautiful wearing it. In short, this can be seen as her acknowledging her identity.

In fact, Huang Feiyan planned to travel to Yaochi soon to visit Mingyan's sister, who was still alive and had once been a key figure in the fight against the Dark Turmoil.

But since Master Mingyan brought this up, Huang Feiyan was more inclined to accompany him.

I can see my sister anytime; this opportunity isn't something that comes around all the time.

As the two were talking, a graceful yet icy figure suddenly appeared beside Huang Feiyan. "You can go directly there; there's no need to ask me."

"Auntie." Yue Qingying quickly bowed, but Huang Junru waved her hand. The golden bracelet on Huang Junru's wrist was also very eye-catching, and Yue Qingying naturally noticed it. She wondered why Huang Junru also had one on her wrist...

Huang Junru was also dressed in a red palace dress, the edges of which were already trimmed with gold. The bright red color paired with the gold bracelet did not look tacky on the mother and daughter, but rather made them look noble and beautiful.

Moreover, to be fair, it was fine before Yue Qingying met Huang Junru, but after meeting her, she discovered that the golden bracelet seemed to fit Huang Junru better than the one worn by Huang Feiyan...

"Yes, daughter understands..." Huang Feiyan nodded. "Then I will go and make preparations, and set off immediately."

We can't linger too long, or we won't be able to find Mingyan later.

Huang Junru said, "I'll personally escort you; otherwise, at your speed, I don't know when you'll catch up."

Huang Feiyan was somewhat surprised, "There's no need to trouble Mother with such a thing."

"I have something I want to talk to Mingyan about." Huang Junru shook her head, not allowing Huang Feiyan to refute her further. Then she nodded to Yue Qingying, her figure turning into light and disappearing.

----------------------

Meanwhile, Mingyan and Feng Shiyi were still on their way.

Although Mingyan was carrying Feng Shiyi quite quickly, he always had to stop because of her presence...

Her physical body doesn't seem to be that of an ordinary person. Since Bai Ze sent her here, she is undoubtedly a demon. Moreover, she has already taken human form without any cultivation, which means that she is not only a demon, but also a demon with extremely pure and noble blood.

The physical form of the demon race is often not conducive to cultivation. The current system was created by the human race. Although the demon race's cultivation system has changed slightly due to the improvements made by successive demon emperors, it has not changed at all. Therefore, if they do not transform into human form, their cultivation speed will be very slow.

Therefore, for demons, it takes a very long time to cultivate if they do not transform into human form.

Unless one is a pure and noble demon, one must cultivate immortality through arduous practice until reaching the stage where one can take human form and begin normal cultivation.

She gets hungry and wants to eat, just like cultivators who can convert what they eat into energy to replenish their energy reserves.

It was precisely for this reason that Mingyan always needed to stop and hunt some ferocious beasts for her, and cook for her.

Mingyan hadn't done this in a long time. Since becoming a cultivator, he had basically never eaten, let alone resumed his old ways of hunting ferocious beasts and cooking for himself...

"So delicious..." Feng Shiyi held a pork chop, her face full of satisfaction. This wild boar was from the Zhaohai Realm, but unfortunately it was caught by Ming Yan and ended up as Feng Shiyi's meal.

Despite her delicate and pitiful appearance, Feng Shiyi has a huge appetite. She can eat thousands of pounds of ferocious beasts in one meal. It's hard to imagine how her slender waist and flat stomach can hold so much food. She eats very quickly, which shows that her physical body is actually extraordinary and can directly convert food into energy.

Mingyan sat cross-legged to the side, shaking his head helplessly.

"You must be a demon, right? What kind of demon are you?"

"I'm not a demon!" Feng Shiyi held up the roasted, golden-brown pork leg and shook her head vigorously.

If you're not a demon, how can you eat so much?

Mingyan was somewhat speechless. How could an ordinary human without cultivation possibly eat so much? Even someone with a special physique, before being activated by spiritual energy, would only be stronger than an ordinary person, just like Mingyan in the past.

No matter how powerful the Human King Body is, Ming Yan in the past was only stronger than ordinary people, and there was nothing particularly extraordinary about him.

Unless her physical body had already been activated, only lacking spiritual energy...

When Mingyan had been holding her earlier, he tried to check on Feng Shiyi's condition, only to find that his spiritual energy was completely blocked and he couldn't get in at all. This woman is very strange... If she is a demon, it's fine, as demons are naturally strong, but if she is not a demon, then there is a problem.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Being near you makes me feel at ease

The meat was roasted until golden brown and glistening with oil. One bite revealed its juicy goodness. Feng Shiyi's eating manners weren't actually that exaggerated; she just ate very quickly.

Her purple brocade robe was made of some unknown material; any oil dripped onto it would quickly dissolve, and dirt couldn't get on it at all. However, Mingyan wasn't too surprised, since he could do the same.

"Mingyan, why aren't you eating?"

Perhaps Feng Shiyi noticed that she was eating alone, so she handed Mingyan a piece of juicy pork chop with her fair and delicate hand, blinking her big eyes, "It's delicious."

“This isn’t enough for you alone…” Mingyan shook his head. “I don’t need to eat.”

"Won't you get hungry if you don't eat...?" Feng Shiyi's eyes showed some hesitation, as if she wasn't quite sure.

"I am a cultivator. The purpose of eating is to replenish the energy of my body, but I can directly replenish the energy of my body with spiritual energy, so I don't need to eat," Mingyan said. Feng Shiyi didn't seem to know much about cultivators. Even at home, she was probably a delicate flower that was well protected.

I just don't understand why they would throw such a delicate flower, so easily broken, in front of me.

"It's really delicious~" Feng Shiyi said in a sweet and innocent voice, "You should try some~"

As she spoke, she fed the beast meat to Mingyan's mouth. Mingyan looked up at Feng Shiyi's expectant eyes, then tore off a piece of meat and fed it to his mouth.

Feng Shiyi then withdrew her hand, chuckling, "Wasn't it delicious?"

I made this myself, how could I not know my skills?

Mingyan felt that his skills had not deteriorated. When he was a hunter, he sometimes had to camp outdoors, so he often carried spices with him. When he hunted prey, he could simply start a fire and roast it to eat. Although he didn't have many spices with him now, he could still gather them in this area.

After finishing her meal, Feng Shiyi fell asleep soon after. She slept very soundly. Mingyan tidied up, picked her up, and set sail again.

------------------

As dusk fell, Mingyan led the now-awakened Feng Shiyi to the vicinity of the teleportation array. This was a small town, and the residents were not ordinary people; almost everyone there cultivated immortality.

This is the border between the Eastern and Southern Continents. The Southern Continent is quite different from the Eastern Continent. There don't seem to be many ordinary people in the Southern Continent. Because of the existence of the demon race, many humans have migrated to the Eastern and Northern Continents.

Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that Gu Hanshuang and Yu Mudan were born in Nanzhou.

Ming Yan's cultivation level is not very high. Although his cultivation level is definitely quite outstanding among his peers, there are too many people here now, and many people who have been cultivating for decades or even hundreds of years are here. Ming Yan's cultivation level of Qi Sea Realm is not very high.

The two were quite eye-catching. Ming Yan's appearance was actually extremely outstanding, while Feng Shiyi's appearance was naturally beyond question.

Feng Shiyi was a little shy, clutching Mingyan's clothes tightly and following closely behind him.

Ming Yan led Feng Shiyi to the teleportation array. He took out his waist token, and Feng Shiyi hesitated for a moment before also taking out her own waist token with the words "Bai Ze" written on it. The person in charge here was an elderly cultivator who looked quite old. It was unclear what his cultivation level was, but when he saw the waist token with the words "Bai Ze" written on it, his expression changed. He glanced at Feng Shiyi, his brows furrowed, but he didn't say anything. He nodded slightly to Ming Yan, indicating that the two of them could go in.

Mingyan put away the two waist tokens, returned the one with the words "Bai Ze" written on it to Feng Shiyi, and led her into the teleportation array.

The teleportation array was quite large, but there were also quite a few people. This place was considered the border between the two southeastern continents, and even in the past, these teleportation arrays were occasionally needed.

Each continent is relatively independent, and the teleportation gates within a continent cannot be used for cross-continental teleportation. Even the teleportation gate that extends from the border of the Eastern Continent and is extremely close to the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Holy Land of the Southern Continent cannot directly teleport one to the Southern Continent. One must use a specific teleportation gate or a special teleportation array to teleport.

Therefore, there were more people at the interstate teleportation portal than one might imagine, including business people, travelers, tourists, and all sorts of other people.

Mingyan and Feng Shiyi stood in opposite corners. Feng Shiyi hid behind Mingyan. She was slightly shorter than Mingyan and peeked out from behind him, looking curiously at the outside.

"Haven't you ever used this teleportation array before?" Mingyan asked.

Feng Shiyi shook her head vigorously, "No... I've never left the house before, I've always stayed home alone..."

Alone at home? She's being protected way too much... Mingyan sighed. Isn't she a demon? Do demons need to be so meticulously protected?

Are you scared?

"I'm not afraid..." Feng Shiyi clutched Mingyan's sleeve, her voice sweet and innocent, "She said Mingyan would protect me..."

“I’m just a Qi Sea Realm cultivator, I might not be able to protect you.” Ming Yan shook his head.

“But if I’m in danger, Mingyan will never abandon me. She said that, and she’s right.” Feng Shiyi pouted. “I believe her, and I believe in Mingyan.”

“…” Ming Yan was silent for a while. She was referring to Bai Ze, right? Why would Bai Ze dare to say such a thing? Did she know him well?

"Do you really think I can protect you?"

“Yes, because being near Mingyan makes me feel at ease.” Feng Shiyi nodded vigorously. “This feeling is definitely true.”

"You feel safe when you're near me?" This made Mingyan a little embarrassed. If he really made people feel that safe, that would be quite nice.

Ming Yan and Feng Shiyi waited in place for a long time. The inter-state teleportation array seemed to only operate once a day. They had arrived relatively early, and even now, they still needed to wait for more than an hour.

Just then, a carriage appeared on the horizon. Mingyan looked up and noticed the carriage. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it seemed. It looked like... wasn't this Aunt Huang's carriage?

The carriage stopped outside the town and did not enter; it soon disappeared.

Before long, Mingyan saw two familiar figures, Huang Junru and Huang Feiyan, appear in his sight.

Huang Feiyan seemed to notice Mingyan and was pleasantly surprised. She waved, and Mingyan waved back. The two of them quickly walked over.

Feng Shiyi looked at Huang Junru and Huang Feiyan with some curiosity. She could clearly sense that Ming Yan knew those two people.

Huang Feiyan and Huang Junru seemed to have noticed Feng Shiyi as well. Huang Feiyan lowered her hand, looked at Huang Junru beside her, and the two exchanged a glance before walking over.

Chapter Thirty: The Peach Blossoms Are Too Abundant

Huang Junru's aura was too strong, and the elder who was in charge here seemed to recognize Huang Junru. He quickly stood up and bowed to Huang Junru, "Welcome, Holy Master of the Huang Family."

Huang Junru waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities, and walked up with Huang Feiyan.

Many cultivators around lowered their heads and avoided looking in their direction. Many of them knew Huang Junru's identity, but did not want to pay their respects, so they naturally did not approach.

Mingyan led Feng Shiyi away from the teleportation array. "Auntie, Feiyan, what brings you here?"

"I heard you're going to travel to the Southern Continent, and Fei Yan is a little worried about you, so she wants to go with you," Huang Junru said softly.

Huang Feiyan blushed slightly. "What? I just wanted to travel with Mingyan. I was a little worried about things. When I'm with Mingyan, I'm always the one being taken care of."

Huang Feiyan felt a little shy; what did she have to worry about?

However, Huang Feiyan's gaze swept over Feng Shiyi without leaving a trace... as if she did indeed have some concerns.

Huang Feiyan felt that Ning Feixuan was right about some of the things she said; Ming Yan was too popular with women, it seemed that wherever he went, women would approach him...

Gu Hanshuang, Yu Mudan, and the unfamiliar yet stunningly beautiful woman before them...

Before he knew it, new women appeared in Mingyan's life. And to make matters worse, they were all stunning beauties.

Mingyan was somewhat surprised. "Feiyan, are you going with me?"

Mingyan wasn't particularly averse to it; he quite enjoyed being with Huang Feiyan. Huang Feiyan was lively and open-minded by nature, and the two got along well, making their time together very easy.

Moreover, if Huang Feiyan were with them, it would be more convenient for her to take care of Feng Shiyi behind them.

To be honest, it's a bit inconvenient for him, being a man.

Mingyan also noticed something strange. He seemed to sense that Huang Feiyan's cultivation level had improved, and he was somewhat surprised. "Feiyan, have you broken through to the Divine Realm?"
