Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 531: Such a Result, Good or Bad

“It feels good, very good,” replied the second elder with a smile as he let out a long relieved breath.

“The Crisis Reverse Pill is indeed amazing!” exclaimed the fifth elder who was standing by the second elder’s side.

“That’s right, how long have I been bedridden for?” asked the second elder as he just regained his senses.

“It’s been almost half a year?” replied the fifth elder.

“It’s been that long? No way, I have to rush back to Shi Qu Town,” said the second elder, feeling shocked as he made an effort to get out of bed. The second elder totally did not think that he would have been out of commission for so long!

“Second Elder, you have just taken the pill, you should rest well and absorb its medical properties first,” advised Ling Chuxi immediately.

“Second Elder Brother, don’t worry. Every day someone from the clan sends news over. The family is fine. You just focus on recovering from your injuries here in peace first,” added the fifth elder from the side.

“Although you have said so, how could I feel at ease?” said the second elder as he let out a long sigh.

“Second Elder does not have to worry too much. With me around, no one dares to threaten the Ling family badly,” said Fu Chengyu. His words were to comfort, but they were also a promise.

Only with this did the second elder felt relieved. With Fu Chengyu’s identity and cultivation level, as long as he showed his face, at least within Nan Xia Country, there was no one who would dare lay a hand on the Ling family. At this moment, the second elder did not know it was precisely because Fu Chengyu had showed his face that within this half year, the Ling family’s reputation had been greatly raised and even those thousand-year-old ancient family clans did not dare to underestimate the Ling family. The Ling family had already vaguely started to have the fame of a big family clan.

The second elder was indeed badly wounded and was just at the initial stages of recovery. After talking for a bit, his fatigue quickly showed.

“Second Elder, please rest first. We won’t disturb you anymore,” said Ling Chuxi as she led Fu Chengyu, Luo Li and the rest out of the room to allow the second elder to rest more.

It was only at this moment that Ling Chuxi noticed there were quite a few hidden guards around the little loft. Their cultivations were not weak and Ling Chuxi did not even notice their presence earlier on. She had only felt that the atmosphere within the courtyard had become more solemn and serious.

“Big Brother Fu has been sincere,” said Ling Chuxi in gratitude. She could guess that these guards were all sent here by Fu Chengyu to ensure the safety of the second elder.

“These are not my people. Rather, they are the people of your beloved disciple,” replied Fu Chengyu with a smile.

“Fifth Princess?” Ling Chuxi knew that he was indeed talking about the fifth princess, but she could not help but be a little surprised.

“While you were away this half year, there have been quite a bit of changes in her. She requested for these hidden guards from Imperial Father. After her drills, they have become quite a bit stronger than they were in the past. All this was all because of what you said to her back then,” said Fu Chengyu, nodding as he spoke. Fu Chengyu was lamenting a little. In the mere short span of half a year, the growth of the fifth princess had been indeed extremely shocking. The sentence Ling Chuxi had said before she left had actually become such a huge influence.

Ling Chuxi was even more surprised. The fifth princess had actually requested for hidden guards from the emperor and had even personally drilled them. What did this mean? Did it not mean that she had also already started to form her own forces and would soon be caught up in the whirlpool in the fight for imperial power?

Such a result, Ling Chuxi did not dare to say whether it was good or bad.
