Chosen Man
Kindness
Do you even want to mention a name?
The beautiful young lady couldn't help but smile and said, "Could it be that Young Master is an outstanding noble figure, and could it be that you're worried that we're going up the social ladder after you mention your great name?"
Feng Zun said, "I'm afraid you'll be involved in something unnecessary if you find out my name."
"You think I'm weak and will be a burden?"
The beautiful young lady was stunned for a moment before she said, “You are not in trouble right? Why don't you tell us about it? Maybe we can help you.”
Feng Zun smiled and said, "It's no big deal, I'm trying to solve it myself."
The white-robed youth stopped him when he saw that he intended to ask another question. "Young Sister, this Young Master has something she cannot talk about, so don't ask any further."
After a pause, he said softly to Feng Zun, "If Young Master needs help, as long as we can help, we will definitely not refuse."
His tone was calm, but carried a sense of confidence.
Feng Zun already knew that this senior and junior couple were not hypocrites. There is a rare sense of kindness in them.
If the conclusion was correct, these two people should not have experienced too many ups and downs of life until now, so they still had a lot of goodness left in their hearts.
On the way, even though Feng Zun did not ask him, he already knew that the white-robed young man was named Jing Li
The beautiful woman was named Changning.
Both of them were from Hongsan Academy located in Hong Prefecture of the Zhou Imperial State.
…
Liangzhu River Pier.
When Feng Zun and the other two arrived, they saw a huge river in the distance. The water was turbulent and the waves were like an ocean. It was an amazing sight.
On one side of the dock, a ship is seen anchored. It was thirty meters long, with sturdy poles and sails.
On the ship, a young man dressed in high black, waved his hand with a smile. “Quick get on board because ten minutes away, we will leave.”
The white-robed youth, Jing Li, cupped his fists with a smile and boarded the ship with Feng Zun and Changning.
"Sister Jing Li, is this?"
The teenager in black looked at Feng Zun and asked with a smile.
Jing Li said with a smile, "A friend, we met on the way. Like us, he wants to go to Jade city, so we travel together."
As he spoke, he introduced him to Feng Zun. “This is the core disciple of Luyang Academy, Zhu Ling, he is a famous figure of the younger generation. He was only 17 years old, yet he had already stepped into the early stage Mortal realm, and he was the best student of Luyang Academy."
The black-clothed youth smiled in a reserved manner and said, "Sister Jing Li, you are overdoing it. Come with me. There are many Fellow Cultivators participating in the Fall Competition like us on this ship, and I will introduce them to all of you later.”
As he spoke, he led the way and walked towards the top of the ship.
The ship had a total of three floors, and the top floor was built with a towering roof. Looking into the distance through the fences of the ship, each passenger can enjoy a clear view of the Liangzhu River.
At this moment, there were over 10 young men and women sitting inside the hall, and they were eating, drinking and chatting with each other making the atmosphere bustling.
When Zhu Ling arrived with Feng Zun and the others, it also attracted the attention of many people in the hall.
Sitting on the main seat of the table was a young man wearing a feathered crown and a bright jade robe. He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and he invited those who had just come to sit down with a smile.
On the other hand, there were not many seats left in the hall, only the seats near the entrance were left.
Zhu Ling was a little regretful over this, and she said in a low voice, "Sister Jing Li, we are a little late, so we have no other choice now."
Jing Li smiled and nodded.
Naturally, Feng Zun did not mind. After all he came at an inopportune time, so he would just go with the flow.
The group immediately took their seats.
