Chapter 365 - Feng Nichang's Scheme a Cultivator
Yet, I didn't have a guqin that felt right in my hands, and the ones I found at random likely couldn't withstand my immense Spiritual Force!
Since Feng Nichang has already gifted it, I'll consider it a temporary loan!
Once I find the perfect guqin for myself, I'll return this one to Feng Nichang!
Truth be told, Feng Nichang is quite astute. She realizes her overreliance on the Phoenix Cry has hindered her progress in zither playing.
Still, Jiang Hao pondered, he couldn't just accept someone else's property without offering something in return.
“Miss Feng, I won't take your zither without compensation!”
In that moment, Jiang Hao reached into his pocket and produced a finely carved jade medicine container, offering it to Feng Nichang.
“This is for you. It could save your life!”
“Should you suffer grave injuries, as long as you're still breathing, this can keep you alive!”
Feng Nichang hesitated, but her trust in Jiang Hao, as well as Aunt Hong's, was unwavering.
Soong Wan, however, was well aware of Jiang Hao's miraculous abilities. At that moment, her trust in him was absolute.
If Jiang Hao said it would work, then it surely would.
Seeing Feng Nichang's reluctance, Soong Wan quickly reassured her.
“Sister Nichang, please accept it! Brother Hao wouldn't deceive you!”
Taken aback by her words, Feng Nichang nonetheless accepted the jade medicine bottle from Jiang Hao and expressed her gratitude.
“Thank you, Mr. Jiang!”
Jiang Hao simply smiled, pleasantly surprised.
“Well then, Wan'er and I shall leave you to rest, Miss Feng. Farewell!”
“Sister Nichang, if you find the time, please visit my home. My mother misses you dearly!”
“Of course, Wan'er, bring my regards to Aunt He and Uncle Song!”
……
With that, Jiang Hao and Soong Wan took their leave.
Once they were gone, Aunt Hong anxiously addressed Feng Nichang.
“Miss, how could you part with the Phoenix Cry!”
“Even though his mastery of the zither is undeniable, and I understand you wish to befriend him!”
“But this…”
“How will you explain this to our people when we return home?”
Despite Aunt Hong's concerns, Feng Nichang remained unfazed.
With a serene look, she gazed at the jade medicine bottle Jiang Hao had given her and spoke with a nonchalant air.
“Indeed! He and Tan Yongning are both master-level pianists.
However, if that's the case, I could leverage my rapport with Tan Yongning and use other means to befriend him!”
As she spoke, Feng Nichang abruptly lifted her head, locking eyes with Aunt Hong, and posed a question.
“But tell me, Aunt Hong, do you know what I've discovered about him?”
Aunt Hong was taken aback. The young mistress was usually so level-headed, but today she was acting out of character!
She instinctively engaged with Feng Nichang's inquiry and probed further.
“What have you discovered, Miss?”
In that moment, Feng Nichang reflected on her earlier revelation, her eyes betraying a flicker of astonishment.
“I sensed an immeasurable Spiritual Force!”
Aunt Hong gasped at the revelation.
”Spiritual Force? Could he be a Divine Cultivator as well?”
Feng Nichang shook her head, elaborating.
“I can't be certain if he's a Divine Cultivator, but his immense Spiritual Force is truly beyond belief. It might even surpass that of my great-uncle!”
“This man is extraordinary!”
“Moreover, his eyes seem as if they could consume souls!”
Hearing this, Aunt Hong was utterly dumbfounded.
“Even greater than the Third Great-Uncle?”
What did that imply?
She knew all too well the prowess of the Third Grandfather Feng Nichang referred to!
For a martial cultivator like herself, withstanding even a single look from such a person was inconceivable!
