178: Chapter 178 Discovery of Ruins, Another Blessing for Demon Abyss

Cang Yan glared at Yue Lan with a look of utter disgust; he really didn't want to know him.

"Have you recovered your memory?"

Cang Yan gave a grunt of affirmation. Yue Lan immediately leaned in front of him, "Then has your strength recovered too?"

"Not yet."

Yue Lan glanced at the Mistress's location, "Let me tell you something. I found an underground cave that actually has some treasures. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Are you sure it's treasure?"

Anything Yue Lan called treasure could not be simple.

"Of course. When have I ever lied to you? It should be ruins."

Cang Yan thought for a moment, "If it's ruins, then that's correct. However, your luck is quite good; to be able to encounter ruins in a place like this."

Yue Lan yawned, his expression lazy, "You know that I don't rely entirely on luck."

"Tell Mistress later."

If Mistress wants it, he will just accompany her on a trip.

"Cang Yan, I'm telling you, you really are not up to the task. Even with a whole day, you're useless. Aside from eating, you really haven't accomplished anything. You've wasted such a good opportunity." With a wave of Yue Lan's hand, an exquisite pond appeared before him, and he swam around in the water.

"You're right, I'm not up to the task."

Cang Yan had just finished speaking when he received several eye-rolls from the Dark Spirit group. However, Cang Yan didn't get angry; he simply put away all the remaining Phoenix meat, leaving behind several pairs of eyes glaring at him in dissatisfaction.

But protests were useless; Cang Yan simply ignored them.

The Dark Spirit was truly unable to contain their anger and turned to glare at Yue Lan, "I'm telling you, why do you provoke him? If he's not up to the task, then he's not. If you're so capable, you do it yourself!"

Why implicate him?

Yue Lan splashed in the water. He would love to do it, but it wasn't his turn.

After Feng Yange finished absorbing the Spiritual Qi from the wood spirit bead and water spirit bead, she felt two new Spiritual Roots grow inside her. Condensing the power of the wood spirit bead allowed her to control plants, and condensing the power of the water spirit bead allowed her to control water. It was simply too satisfying.

"Mistress, how do you feel?"

Yue Lan walked over to Feng Yange and crouched down, his pair of ice-blue eyes gazing intently at her. Feng Yange only thought those eyes were beautiful, "A-Lan, you're back already?"

"Mistress, I found some underground ruins and wanted to come back to tell you. Besides, the outside is not as good as being by your side; I don't want to be separated from you." Yue Lan's tone carried a hint of coquettishness. Cang Yan gave a cold, disdainful snort.

"Cang Yan, if you're not up to it, go sit at the kids' table. I just want to accompany Mistress." Yue Lan's words made Feng Yange unable to hold back a laugh, because Cang Yan was indeed sitting together with Dengdeng and the others. Wasn't that just sitting at the kids' table?

Meanwhile, the few little ones eating were pulling long faces and glaring at Yue Lan, very dissatisfied, yet unwilling to refute.

"Then let's go take a look. Should we notify the others?"

Feng Yange took out a Jade Slip to ask them if they wanted to go to the discovered ruins.

Except for Long Ze, none of the others could return.

When Long Ze returned, he was clutching a storage ring in his hand, "Mistress, these are the Spiritual Plants I found."

Feng Yange recognized them; these were all supreme Spiritual Plants, the main ingredients for the supreme spirit liquid, as well as various ingredients for refining the spirit gathering pill.

"A-Ze, you've worked hard."

Feng Yange took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Long Ze's face, seeing his earlobes turn slightly red, yet he was smiling very happily.

"If Mistress likes them, I will find more Spiritual Plants for you in the future."

The Elder said he was too dull and needed to learn to please the Mistress, to find her the things she wanted, so that the Mistress would be willing to accept his original form. After all, the Dragon Clan's original form was very large and hard to accept.

"In the future, prioritize your Cultivate. Collecting Spiritual Plants should be something we do collectively while training; there's no need to go out of your way to find them." Feng Yange knew Long Ze wanted to please her, but her affection didn't mean she wanted Long Ze to spend all his time finding Spiritual Plants for her.

Long Ze held Feng Yange's hand, a light shining in his golden pupils.

"Mistress, then can I be like them?"

"Of course. The First Husband status isn't to restrict you, it's only because you were the first to meet me." Feng Yange stood on tiptoe and gave a light kiss to the corner of Long Ze's lips, "Remember, be yourself. There's no need to change for me. Just be yourself, and I will like you very much."

Long Ze pulled Feng Yange into his embrace, "Mistress, it's so good to have met you."

"Me too." Feng Yange chuckled softly. Watching Cang Yan walk towards her, she was just about to speak when Cang Yan leaned down and kissed her on the lips, revealing a smile, "Mistress, how fortunate I am to be your husband."

The smile on Yue Lan's face froze. Watching Cang Yan's actions, he suddenly felt that Cang Yan had become very unfamiliar.

Didn't he say he wasn't up to it, that he wouldn't vie for favor?

Kissing the Mistress behind the First Husband's back, playing so thrillingly—was this still the same Cang Yan he knew?

Cang Yan gave a provocative look at the dumbfounded Yue Lan, a flash of cunning disappearing in an instant.

"Mistress, let's set off now. No matter what it is, I will find it for you." Long Ze was full of energy. The First Husband status would no longer constrain his behavior; he could be like the others—able to act coquettishly, vie for favor, and seek intimacy with the Mistress.

"Okay." Feng Yange looked at the way Cang Yan was gazing at her; it was clean and carried a hint of gentleness.

"I didn't expect it, but he's still a black-bellied little Nine." Feng Yange whispered. Long Ze looked at Cang Yan and smiled.

Cang Yan finally knew how to vie for favor; a slap to the face, though late, had arrived.

Yue Lan led the way in front, with Long Ze and Cang Yan protecting Feng Yange on the left and right. Although Mo Yuan and the others hadn't come over, they had brought news to Feng Yange: they had discovered people from the Feng Family and had also learned that the Feng Family possessed a jinge pearl.

"Wait until we get the treasure from the ruins, then we'll take a trip to the Feng Family. This jinge pearl will be helpful for A-Chen's body."

Feng Yange didn't want to miss any treasure; Matriarch Feng had really hidden it deep.

"But isn't the Feng Family hunting you? Do you have a way to get the jinge pearl from the Feng Family?" Long Ze looked at the Mistress's sparkling eyes; it seemed the next one to be unlucky would be the Feng Family, but he was actually quite excited.

"There will always be a way."

Feng Yange calculated—what Feng Family's jinge pearl? It was clearly her, Feng Yange's, jinge pearl.

"Mistress, it's right here."

Yue Lan brought Feng Yange to a dark and damp ruin underground. It was gloomy and dark here, and the air was filled with a musty smell that was nauseating to breathe.

"Yue Lan, is this the place you said had treasure?"

Cang Yan frowned in disgust. He released his Qi; there was no danger, and he couldn't detect any so-called treasure either.

"I can feel that it's right ahead; it might be related to the Demon Race." Yue Lan led the way, "It might be a demon bead."

Hearing "demon bead," Feng Yange's eyes lit up. If this demon bead could be found, she could heal Mo Yuan again.

"A-Lan, take me there."

"Mo Yuan is truly happy, having the Mistress personally search for a demon bead for him." Cang Yan said while holding the Jade Slip. Mo Yuan replied, "Little Nine must not know that for one demon bead, I get to monopolize the Mistress for five days."

Cang Yan clenched his fists, feeling only stifled. Not only was he helping Mo Yuan find the demon bead, but he also had to listen to him show off that he could accompany the Mistress for five days.
