Suddenly, Yuan Jue stared blankly at a point to his left, and with a wave of his right hand, a black lightning bolt appeared in that place. With a crackling sound, an old woman in purple robes appeared!
"Dean Yuanjue is indeed worthy of being called Dean! Even though I concealed my figure and aura, I still couldn't escape your detection." The old woman in purple robes was none other than Prime Minister Wen, and she wore a mocking smile on her face.
Yuan Jue remained silent, only pursing his lips and staring at Prime Minister Wen.
Prime Minister Wen waved his hand, "Oh dear, don't look at me like that. This old woman doesn't like young men. The way you're looking at me makes me think you're interested in me."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Jue's face flushed red, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he unleashed a vicious attack.
However, if Feng Fei were awake at this moment, he would definitely exclaim: "Prime Minister Wen is so cunning! Is he also a time traveler? The content of his words is really BL."

I've been having classes every morning and going to bed late these past few days, so I took a nap as soon as I got back at noon. I just woke up now, which is why I'm only updating today's chapter now~ *sobs*
Chapter 5: Prime Minister Wen Gets Tricked
Chapter Five: Prime Minister Wen Gets Tricked
Prime Minister Wen nimbly dodged, a mocking look on his face. "I advise you to give up. What do you think you'll achieve by struggling like this?" He suddenly laughed again: "Besides, you're still holding the Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Jue looked down and saw that Feng Fei's eyes were tightly closed, his brows were deeply furrowed, and his face was flushed with an unusual redness. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and Yuan Jue's heart tightened. Yuan Jue helped Feng Fei lie down on Ming Feng's body, stood up, and lifted himself up in front of Prime Minister Wen.
At this moment, Mingfeng suddenly let out a clear cry, flapped its wings, and instantly traveled tens of thousands of miles away.
Prime Minister Wen frowned and was about to give chase, but Yuan Jue blocked his way: "Prime Minister Wen, didn't you want the Emperor to find a good place to cultivate after escaping, and then return to restore the country after his strength has greatly increased? Why does it seem that the Prime Minister's wishes have changed now?"
Prime Minister Wen stopped all his actions, looked at Yuan Jue carefully, and said in a deep voice, "You don't want me anymore, so hasn't your original intention changed as well?"
Yuan Jue remained silent, but then Prime Minister Wen suddenly moved. Yuan Jue, momentarily dazed, didn't have time to stop him and watched as Prime Minister Wen disappeared into the distance. However, Yuan Jue showed no sign of urgency; his face even wore a leisurely expression, as if he had casually chosen a direction and gracefully departed.
Feng Fei's situation is not so good.
Mingfeng carried Fengfei through the air, and after an unknown amount of time, they suddenly stopped above a seemingly ordinary forest. After circling for a while, Mingfeng swooped down, and a halo of light flashed across the small forest, pulling Mingfeng and Fengfei inside. After they entered, the sky above the forest slightly distorted, but soon returned to normal, with the sparse chirping of insects and birds echoing through the air.
Before long, Prime Minister Wen arrived at the top of the small grove, riding on a white cloud.
He sniffed carefully, frowning in confusion. He was certain that Feng Fei had just been here, but now he couldn't find Feng Fei's scent in any direction. After thinking for a moment, Prime Minister Wen scooped out a small purple bead from his robes, his face contorted with pain. Gritting his teeth, he finally crushed the purple bead.
As the bead shattered, purple droplets floated around Prime Minister Wen. He reached out and grasped something in the air with his right hand, then slowly extended his fist to touch the largest droplet of purple liquid, slightly opening his hand. The droplet contracted abruptly, then began to vibrate continuously. The ripples from the vibrations gradually spread to the scattered purple liquid, causing more and more of it to vibrate.
In the end, even Prime Minister Wen had to retreat far away. He stood with his hands behind his back at the edge of the small forest, watching it gradually disappear as the purple liquid vibrated, and a smile slowly spread across his face.
But before the smile could spread across his face, it froze: the trembling liquid seemed to have touched something terrifying, and with a loud "bang," it made a violent sound. Prime Minister Wen was affected and felt as if something heavy had struck his chest. He almost vomited blood, and some blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
Before they could wipe it away, the purple liquid that had exploded mysteriously disappeared. Prime Minister Wen didn't have time to escape either, and before he could even put up a resistance, he was swallowed up.
When everything returned to calm, Mingfeng, carrying Fengfei on her back, suddenly reappeared in the same spot. The small forest that had just disappeared also reappeared, still looking as ordinary as ever. But at this moment, no one would consider this forest an ordinary place.
As if in gratitude, Mingfeng called softly in one direction of the forest, then chose another direction and continued flying away.
Feng Fei, who was on Mingfeng's back, was in very bad condition.
Feng Fei's mind was filled with only one feeling: pain!
When those golden specks covered his body, Feng Fei felt a cool sensation running from his head to his toes. But the tearing and ripping pain that followed almost caused him to collapse.
It's important to understand that what was being enveloped wasn't Feng Fei's body, but his soul. Even with the fusion of two souls, making his soul powerful enough, it still couldn't withstand this kind of pain.
Just as Feng Fei was about to lose consciousness and his soul dissipate, Feng Yi suddenly appeared, extended his right index finger, and pointed it at Feng Fei's brow with seemingly slow but actually fast movements. After seeing Feng Fei's body shudder and then stabilize, Feng Yi, as if he had exhausted all his strength, collapsed to the ground, and his body even seemed to become transparent.
Suddenly, Feng Shiyi appeared on Mingfeng's back, but seemingly afraid of the scorching sun, he held up a red oil-paper umbrella that he had found somewhere. Mingfeng smelled the familiar scent and became very excited, stretching its neck and calling out several times.
Feng Shiyi patted Mingfeng's head, seemingly sighing.
Looking at Fengfei lying on Mingfeng's back, her pretty little face was all scrunched up. Fengfei's body was slightly curled up, and there were faint traces of firelight on her clothes. Her granddaughter was only twelve years old, and she wondered if she could withstand such torment.
Feng Shiyi observed carefully, and after noticing a faint blackness appearing on Feng Fei's body, he flipped his left hand, and a golden fruit appeared in his palm.
Feng Shiyi felt a pang of reluctance. If Feng Fei were to swallow this fruit, and if he could pull through and wake up, the benefits would be immense, and his future potential limitless. But for Feng Fei, currently at his limit, this fruit would undoubtedly be adding fuel to the fire!
While he was still hesitating, Feng Shiyi's body suddenly trembled, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he flicked his left hand and sent the golden fruit into Feng Fei's mouth. Next, his left hand formed a complicated hand seal, and a faint blue light slowly gathered around him, finally merging into a dark blue bead that floated in front of Feng Shiyi.
Feng Shiyi reached out and touched his brow, drawing a white ray of light. With each inch the light extended, Feng Shiyi's complexion darkened. He circled the bead several times with the white ray until it was completely enveloped in white light, then stopped. His face was as white as paper.
The white light slowly merged into the bead, and when it turned into a pale blue bead, Feng Shiyi gently pressed it against Feng Fei's brow. Feng Fei's body trembled violently, and his face contorted in agony. Gritting his teeth, Feng Shiyi exerted force, and the bead sank completely in, leaving only a sliver of blue light visible between his brows.
Upon seeing this, Feng Shiyi smiled, though her figure became somewhat blurry. Holding a red umbrella, Feng Shiyi sat cross-legged beside Feng Fei, closed her eyes, and slowly regulated her breathing. It took her a while to stabilize her fading body.
With a slight smile, Feng Shiyi uttered softly, "Enter the dantian with your spirit, embrace the primordial unity, sense the fire intent, and incorporate it into your soul. Let your will circulate through the meridians, drawing upon the essence of blood to nourish your consciousness..."
Feng Fei's pained expression gradually disappeared, and a bright blue light suddenly flashed between her brows, illuminating her radiant face. This blue light seemed to have an excellent nourishing effect on the soul; Feng Shiyi, who was meditating nearby, was gradually solidified under its influence.
However, the scene within Feng Fei's soul was quite different. The red liquid that had enveloped Feng Fei slowly faded and eventually disappeared from between his eyebrows. When the red completely faded, the golden light that had enveloped Feng Fei also vanished completely, leaving Feng Fei's soul entirely golden.
Feng Fei's soul remained standing with his eyes closed, seemingly lost and helpless, when he suddenly vaguely heard Feng Shiyi's voice. He then subconsciously sat cross-legged and did as Feng Shiyi instructed.
Gradually, Feng Fei's body slowly returned to its original appearance, no longer shining with golden light.
Chapter Six: The Jungle Wolves
Chapter Six: The Wolves of the Jungle
"My dear grandson, how are you feeling now?" Just as Feng Fei regained consciousness and was about to open his eyes, he heard Feng Shiyi's soft, sweet voice. Although the voice was pleasant, the content was rather speechless.
Feng Fei rubbed his temples with his right hand and supported Ming Feng's body with his left hand, slowly sitting up.
"My head still hurts a little." With that, Feng Fei put down the bracelet and looked around. Seeing that they were still flying in the sky, he sighed softly.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Feng Shiyi noticed Feng Fei's furrowed brows and, thinking something was wrong, quickly stepped forward and grabbed Feng Fei's arm, asking anxiously.
Feng Fei saw the undisguised concern in Feng Shiyi's eyes, and her heart warmed. In her past life, very few people would care about her like this. Feng Fei somewhat enjoyed this feeling, but in this unfamiliar world, it was best to remain cautious: "I'm fine." A smile appeared on her face, which was heartwarming, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Feng Shiyi released Feng Fei's hand, took a step back, tilted her little head, and said with a grin, "My dear grandson, since you're alright, Grandma will have to leave now! Feng Wu will come out later to teach you some things, so you must study hard!" Seeing Feng Fei obediently nod, Feng Shiyi's figure holding the little red umbrella slowly disappeared.
Seeing that Feng Shiyi had disappeared, Feng Fei then lay down on Ming Feng's body with his limbs spread wide. Suddenly, he rolled over and pounced on Ming Feng, causing Ming Feng to cry out in pain.
"Oh dear, dear Mingfeng, don't be angry!" Fengfei had accidentally grabbed Mingfeng's feather, hurting Mingfeng, which made Mingfeng let out a loud cry and then lurch towards the ground, scaring Fengfei into screaming.
Just as Fengfei was about to make intimate contact with the ground, it resignedly closed its eyes, but Mingfeng suddenly stopped. Caught off guard, Fengfei was thrown off Mingfeng's back. Fortunately, it was less than a meter from the ground, so it only fell and hurt a little but wasn't seriously injured.
Feng Fei, covered in dust from the fall, scrambled to his feet, glaring angrily at Ming Feng, who stood elegantly to the side, grinding his teeth: "Ming Feng, you petty rascal!" Ming Feng, however, seemed not to hear him, remaining standing there, sometimes pecking at the spot where Feng Fei had just scratched him, sometimes spreading his wings and gently flapping them, raising layers of dust that made Feng Fei sneeze repeatedly.
Feng Fei knew that Ming Feng meant no harm and was just teasing him. Moreover, he had just hurt Ming Feng, so he wasn't angry and simply played along. Soon, the two of them were playing happily together.
Just as Feng Fei was tired of playing and wanted to rest, the ring on Feng Fei's finger suddenly lit up, and then a little girl who looked slightly older than Feng Shiyi appeared.
This little girl is Feng Wu. With Feng Wu's appearance, Feng Fei's eyes lit up: it seems she's going to teach him some practical things!
Feng Wu was a little girl dressed in a pale yellow dress, showing no trace of the majesty and nobility she once possessed as an emperor. However, the aura emanating from her was intermittent, and there was a faint scent of blood and malevolence about her, making her a force to be reckoned with.
Feng Wu looked very serious, but she was quite playful when she spoke. She stepped forward and hugged Feng Fei's arm, tilting her head innocently: "Little Feng Fei, you must have had a tough time just now, right? Hehe, but it's going to be very interesting next! Little Feng Fei, let's learn how to survive in this deep forest. I won't stop saving you unless your life is in danger, not even Ming Feng! Right, Ming Feng?"
"Chirp chirp!" Mingfeng seemed to respond with a hint of schadenfreude, her little head tilted back, looking incredibly cute.
Feng Fei was held by Feng Wu's arm, and seeing Feng Wu's sweet smile, his heart softened, and a smile spread across his face. However, after hearing what Feng Wu said next, the smile froze on his face, and he had no choice but to resign himself to starting to learn from Feng Wu.
"In the wild, the first thing you need to learn is how to find and collect water," Feng Wu explained to Feng Fei, starting with the basics. Feng Fei listened attentively, nodding repeatedly.
Feng Wu explained to Feng Fei how to find and collect water, how to start and extinguish fires, and how to identify the type of ferocious beast and its direction of movement based on its tracks. This took about half a day. After all the theory was taught to Feng Fei, he had to rely on his own exploration and summarization to improve.
Night slowly fell, and the entire jungle quieted down. The bright moon overhead cast a gentle glow, preventing the night from becoming too dark. Occasionally, a gentle evening breeze would blow, bringing a sense of tranquility. Following Feng Wu's instructions from earlier that day, Feng Fei had found water, started a fire, and caught a rabbit, which was now roasting over the fire. Meanwhile, Ming Feng had gone out and returned with a large amount of fruit.
Feng Wu watched from the side, not pointing out anything wrong with Feng Fei's series of actions. He was waiting to suffer the consequences before carefully considering the situation, so that he could remember it more clearly and understand the hardships of survival more deeply.
The aroma of roasting meat wafted into the distance. Mingfeng dropped the fruit she had gathered and chirped around the fire. Fengfei watched Mingfeng with amusement, and when the rabbit meat was cooked, she tore off a hind leg to tease Mingfeng. Mingfeng chirped impatiently, jumping up and down. The firelight reflected on Fengfei's face, making her smile even more charming, though to the ferocious beasts surrounding them, it was merely tempting food!
Feng Wu didn't say anything to remind them. Watching Ming Feng and Feng Fei fooling around, he knew that Feng Fei, who lacked vigilance, would suffer sooner or later in such an unsafe environment. Rather than regretting it when it was too late, it was better to let her suffer a bit now.
Logically, as a divine beast that has lived for tens of thousands of years, Mingfeng should be more sensitive to the movements around it. However, at this moment, it was only concerned with the roasted meat in front of it and playing with Fengfei, throwing all its tens of thousands of years of experience to the back of its mind.
After finishing the barbecue, Feng Fei thought of the former Prime Minister Wen and felt a pang of anxiety. She realized it would be better to improve her strength. However, she was merely a wisp of divine soul from another world. In the Celestial Empire, she had never needed such survival skills. But in this completely unfamiliar place, without strength, death was inevitable. She understood this from the very first day she arrived in this world.
If you don't want to die, the only option is to increase your strength.
Feng Fei closed his eyes and recalled his predecessor's memories. After all, his predecessor had grown to the age of twelve and had mastered most of the things that needed to be mastered.
As he reminisced, Feng Fei slowly picked up some of his predecessor's skills. He focused more on fighting techniques, while gradually learning other general knowledge.
Feng Fei started the fire in a slightly open area, with sparse bushes and trees around it, which she intended to make it easier to observe her surroundings. However, this also conveniently facilitated the arrival of trouble. A faint, eerie green light flickered through the sparse bushes.
While Feng Fei was still oblivious, a loud wolf howl echoed from afar. Instantly, wolf howls rose and fell from the bushes around Feng Fei. Feng Fei's heart skipped a beat. He restrained Ming Feng's playful body and looked around. He saw countless bright green dots all around him. Feng Fei knew that these were the eyes of the jungle wolves.
In the jungle, the most terrifying thing is a whole pack of hungry wolves. Here, their attacks, combined with the surrounding terrain, make it almost impossible for them to miss.
A careful count revealed approximately thirteen wolves. Judging from the howls just now, there was likely an alpha wolf in the distance. Feng Fei felt a headache coming on, inwardly blaming himself for his carelessness. However, after blaming himself, Feng Fei immediately adjusted his mindset and prepared to fight.
Feng Fei secretly rejoiced; the sense of crisis that Prime Minister Wen had given her came at just the right time, allowing her to familiarize herself with many of her predecessor's skills beforehand, so she wouldn't be at a loss when facing the pack of wolves in the jungle. However, Feng Fei also wanted to complain about her own experience: Aren't most people's transmigrations supposed to be good times? How come after she transmigrated, she first became an emperor on the run, then suffered a heart-wrenching attack, followed by the pain of her soul, and finally, these wolves!
Just then, a large, muscular wolf emerged. Upon seeing it, Feng Fei knew it was the alpha wolf. Now there were fourteen wolves around!
As Feng Fei was plotting his attack and escape, the alpha wolf howled at the moon and attacked before Feng Fei could react! Fortunately, the other wolves did not follow suit.
The alpha wolf lunged, its jaws snapping at Feng Fei's delicate neck. Feng Fei slightly shifted her upper body, her magic ring flashing, and a small cyan sword appeared in her hand. She then thrust it straight at the alpha wolf's eye. Seeing the danger, the alpha wolf twisted its body to dodge the sword, then lashed out with its tail at Feng Fei.
By this time, Feng Fei had recovered from the hasty attack. Seeing the wolf's tail coming, he lightly touched the ground with both feet and retreated ten feet, barely dodging the tail. However, the gust of wind from the wolf's tail still grazed his face, drawing a trickle of blood, which made the eyes of the surrounding jungle wolves, who smelled the blood, even more ravenous!
Feng Fei inwardly cried out in alarm, but after glancing at Feng Wu and Ming Feng, who were simply watching calmly, he felt somewhat relieved.
