Feiyun wondered since he had seen her naked, would she try to kill him to hide this matter?
This would definitely be the case for fierce women such as Liu Suzi and Long Jiangling. Or, at the very least, they would remove his eyes.
He focused his gaze and could see that she was more embarrassed and bashful than anything as if this was her fault.
He calmed down and said: “Put your clothes on before the fight gets out of hand.”
“Okay.” She grabbed the clothes and started changing beneath the blanket.
Once she got out, she was fully dressed again. Even her hair was tied neatly; not a single blemish could be seen on her ceremonial outfit.
She became the dignified priestess again - a display of how important clothes were to a woman’s image.
Nonetheless, she couldn’t help but avoid his gaze, unable to face him directly.
“Please, keep this a secret. If others find out…” She bit her lips and said.
“Not a third soul shall know about this.” He responded.
“Thank you, I’ll keep your secret too.” She said with a happy expression.
My secret??Feiyun then realized that she was referring to his saint energy.
Most would attribute this to him possessing a saint treasure. This could prove to be fatal if others were to find out.
He thought that the girl was too innocent. Why was she not thinking about his appearance here tonight or the circumstances around it?

Meanwhile, the red dragon was unstoppable while pushing back the alliance.
Tens of thousands of cultivators gathered below and unleashed their techniques. Alas, they couldn’t break through the scale.
Everyone became frightened - this was an immemorial demon monarch. Only a saint could subdue it.
Feiyun and Chi Quan’er stepped out of the room - a combination of handsome and grace.
“The Myriad Race Conference is starting soon and I do not wish to draw blood, I shall spare you all today.” The dragon said after noticing Feiyun’s unfriendly gaze.
It was afraid of being beaten so it said a cool line before retreating.
“Quan’er, did they do anything to you?” Shangguan Mingqian gazed at Feiyun with aggression.
Feiyun stood there calmly with a confident demeanor.
“Red-robe Priestess, I was actually saved by Brother Feng. Otherwise, I don’t think I would be standing here right now. I have let Aquamoon down with my inability.” She lowered her head while stealing glances at Feiyun.
Who says an innocent girl can’t lie? She was clearly gifted in this matter just like many other women.
The turtle and dragon couldn’t believe their eyes after seeing the beauty coming out unscathed.
Damn! Did Feng Feiyun really change his sexual orientation? This isn’t his style at all.
Shangguan Mingqian saw that Chi Quan’er was not eaten by the dragon and was ready to drop the issue. She could investigate the kidnappers afterward; the most important thing was that Chi Quan’er was still alive.
Despite Feiyun’s role in saving Quan’er, she didn’t thank him because she looked down on him for being a demon’s servant.
The group left and peace returned to the city. If Quan’er was saved by the demon monarch’s servant, it meant that the kidnapper had nothing to do with the demon.
At the same time, the dragon and the turtle have fled long ago, not wanting to deal with Feiyun.

Chi Quan’er couldn’t help but recall her experience while walking with her allies - the man with his charming red eyes…
Shangguan Mingqian noticed this and asked: “Quan’er, you are the youngest among the white-robed priestesses and the most innocent. This was your first time outside Aquamoon, some setbacks are inevitable. It’s fortunate that nothing happened. Learn from this experience and stay close to me next time, the cultivation world is very dangerous.”
“Yes, I will pay closer attention next time.” Quan’er responded.
“Do you know who kidnapped you?” Mingqian’s brows furrowed.
“Ah, I… I don’t know.” Quan’er responded.
“I’m sure that servant knew, you didn’t ask him?” Mingqian asked again.
“I, I forgot.” Quan’er blamed herself for not remembering to ask about such an important issue.
“Are you lying to me?” Mingqian stared at her.

“No, no, I was just too scared back then and forgot to ask. I can go back and ask Brother Feng right now…” Quan’er stammered, afraid that Mingqian would find out the truth.
“This is Quan’er first time training outside, she must have been scared. Red-robe priestess, don’t scare her even more.” A white-robed priestess with a red dot on her forehead said.
“It must have been the same thief who stole Heaven Jewel. Don’t let me catch him or I’ll throw him into the ice pit.” A different priestess said.
Shangguan Mingqian could tell that there was something else amiss. Nonetheless, she had other important matters to take care of.
After the four priestesses returned to their inn and started meditating, she sent an avatar out of the hotel.
It flew like a phantom and landed at a pavilion inside the city. Leaves covered the ground while moonlight seeped through the tree branches, painting ugly marks on the ground.
The avatar looked identical to the real body - fair skin, long legs, thin waist, and perfect bosoms.
Zhang Guyue has been waiting the entire time. He got on one knee and lowered his head: “Greetings, Red-robed Priestess.”
“What is your progress on the mission I gave you?” She asked; her shadow extended under the moonlight.
Zhang Guyue’s heart started beating faster while staring at her perfect figure. He maintained his composure and answered: “I have found the name of the person the deity wishes to see, a half-demon named Feng Feiyun. For some reason, Xuanyuan Yiyi couldn’t bring him back and traveled to the ghost alchemy mark instead. She’s returning to Aquamoon now.”
This was a testament to his effectiveness - capable of tracing Xuanyuan Yiyi’s location.
“I see.” Mingqian contemplated in silence.
She joined Aquamoon three hundred years before Xuanyuan Yiyi. When Yiyi was still a child, she was already a powerful paragon.
It took her less than one hundred years to reach this realm and was recognized as the successor of the saintess position.
However, the deity eventually bestowed this title to Yiyi when she was only eighteen. Mingqian still didn’t accept this.
Since Yiyi failed to escort this half-demon back to Aquamoon, perhaps she could do so to please the deity.
“Where is this half-demon right now?” She nodded.
“This half-demon is even harder to find than Xuanyuan Yiyi. I asked the best wisdom master from my sect and he couldn’t calculate the half-demon’s location. However, I found out from that half-demon alliance that Feng Feiyun had appeared in Sixth Central recently.”
“This is not the time to leave Ethereal, it looks like I will have to find him after obtaining Heaven Jewel.” Mingqian smirked, becoming slightly interested in this half-demon who managed to evade Xuanyuan Yiyi.
