Daylight appeared all of a sudden.
At the back hill, Feng Ruqing walked out again from another cultivation session. She could feel the strength increase in her body. There was a soft smile in her eyes.
“I’m finally making a breakthrough to intermediate Spirit Warrior tier.”
She did not make any breakthrough since the day she left the Forest of Spirit Beasts. Luckily, she had broken the barrier and reached a whole new level.

She walked down the back hill and she could see that Feng Ying was waiting for her in the manor.
There was a row of girls standing behind Feng Ying.
The girls’ eyes were bright and they had cute freckles on their faces—seemingly eager.
A girl in green clothes stood at the far front of the row. Her face was much exquisite compared to the other girls. She lightly bit her lip and seemed withdrawn. One thing about her that was the same as the others was that there were freckles on her face too.
Her coldness disappeared the moment she saw Feng Ruqing. Nervousness and even a tinge of shyness replaced the coldness in the depth of her eyes.
Feng Ruqing was suspicious. “What happened recently? I saw many men and women with freckles when I go out. Now, even the servants of Fengyun Manor look like that too. Although freckles are cute, it seems that there are just too many people with freckles.”
Feng Ying said respectfully, “Manor Lady, this is the order from Great Elder Lei Yun. I don’t understand it too. That’s right. This is a guardian from the Feng Yun clan, Hong Yu. The great elder has sent her to protect you. If you have anyone you want to beat up in the future, you can ask Hong Yu to do so for you to prevent your hands from getting dirty.”
Feng Ruqing did not know how to respond to that.
‘They found me a fighter instead of a servant?’
“Yes, that’s right. The other girls are Spirit Warriors too. Regular people cannot beat them.”
Feng Ruqing was speechless.
‘They’re really sent here to be my guards!’
In fact, Lei Yun would never send ordinary girls to protect Feng Ruqing.
Those girls were also elites among the disciples in Fengyun Manor. Their talents were exceptional even if they were in the reclusive world.
“Guardian Feng Ying…” Feng Ruqing coughed twice. “I don’t need any protection from anybody.”
Aside from the two Tier-5 spirit beasts in her manor, they were also Qing Han and Fu Chen. Nobody could beat them.
Feng Ying replied seriously, “Manor Lady. They’re not here to protect you. They’re here to beat up somebody on your behalf.”
Feng Ruqing remained quiet.
“Moreover, they have come voluntarily to take care of you. They’re not forced by Fengyun Manor. If you’re unwilling to accept them, they would be heartbroken and sad. You’re always so nice to the girls. You wouldn’t want that, right…” Feng Ying smiled.
Great Elder Lei Yun had mentioned it before. The Manor Lady did not favor the men but she had always treated the girls nicely. If they wanted her to keep the girls, they must make her feel compassionate toward them.
Surely, if Tang Yin had heard what they said, she would cry devastatingly in Nalan Jing’s embrace.
Feng Ruqing did care about girls. The two servants who were serving her were the best examples. Moreover, they were women, just like her. So, she would be gentle toward them.
But, there were two exceptions.
One, those who were her enemies.
Another was… Tang Yin…
Tang Yin would never forget how Feng Ruqing threw her out of the princess’s manor several times.
