Cultivation Goddess
Chapters 310. Calm For a Moment

Acong jumped down from Jian Heng's sling after being completely convinced that the woman before him was Fang Yin.

"Sweet sister, you surprised me. Why did you suddenly appear before me?" Acong spoke in a sulking tone.

Fang Yin laughed.

"You think you're the one who's surprised. Me either. You two are in my room, when I locked the door right before." Fang Yin did not want to be blamed.

Acong scratched his head that was not itchy.

"Yes, too, yeah. I was the one who opened the door to my sister's room when she wasn't around."

"Hm." Fang Yin folded his hands on his chest.

"Already! We better get to the banquet hall. We're too late." Jian Heng did not want to waste his time, he thought after this Fang Yin still had to practice.

Acong and Fang Yin smiled looking at Jian Heng's fierce face. It seemed like Jian Heng did not like it if Fang Yin got too close to Acong. Either she was jealous of Acong or was afraid Acong wanted her to be his mother.

The three of them walked together towards the banquet hall. There was already waiting for Qin Yushang and the five fire demons. Meanwhile Lady Qin and Qin Yu Zhu were still preparing food with the servants.

Wong Li came to report to Qin Yushang. His arrival that coincided with the dinner made Lady Qin ask him to stay and have dinner with them.

Qin Yu Zhu's attitude became strange when he saw Wong Li. The incident next to the villa earlier this afternoon still left uneasiness in his heart. Every time he looked at Wong Li, his body trembled.

'Shit! Why is Wong Li here? He looks like he's watching me.' Qin Yu Zhu thought again before doing his act.

Actually Wong Li did not suspect him, that anxious feeling emerged from himself thus making Qin Yu Zhu feel like he was being watched.

The anxiety felt by Qin Yu Zhu made him unable to focus. He almost dropped the bowl with the food he was carrying. Luckily his servant noticed as he placed the bowl on the table in a position that was too on the edge.

Wong Li, who was not suspicious, was curious about Qin Yu Zhu. He walked up to her and looked closely at what she was doing. Moreover, he caught Qin Yu Zhu glancing towards Jian Heng with an unusual gaze.

"Ehem! Miss Qin. Do you need help?" ask Wong Li.

He acted as if he wanted to help her so that Qin Yu Zhu did not feel suspicious.

"Ah, already ... Already done. You can take your food." Qin Yu Zhu looks nervous when dealing with Wong Li.

Wong Li nodded then took the empty bowl to fetch food for him. He did not move from his place and remained standing near Qin Yu Zhu.

All the people who were there were busy taking their own food. Qin Yu Zhu was seen waiting for Jian Heng and Fang Yin to come towards him to pick up the food that was nearby.

With a doubtful feeling Qin Yu Zhu rubbed his sleeves. He stared at Wong Li and their eyes met.

'Wong Li kept looking at me. Looks like I'll have to delay putting this potion.' Qin Yu Zhu was seen gulping with great difficulty. He was bitter about his failure tonight.

Fang Yin helped bring Jian Heng's food because Jian Heng brought him Acong's too. They look like a family with one child.

Qin Yu Zhu clenched his hands when he saw their happiness. His heart felt very envious. He walked quickly away from the banquet hall.

What Qin Yu Zhu did did did not go unnoticed by Wong Li. He put down his bowl and walked following Qin Yu Zhu.

Outside the villa was very quiet. Everyone was eating in the banquet hall. Qin Yu Zhu stood pecking at the side courtyard. He looks up looking up at the sky.

"Everything above the sky is more beautiful. But do not forget if our feet rest on the earth" said Wong Li.

Qin Yu Zhu turned his head towards Wong Li. He was shocked by Wong Li's appearance.

"Why do you keep following me? Like a shadow." Qin Yu Zhu showed his face.

Wong Li was not provoked by Qin Yu Zhu's remarks. He walked forward approaching her with a calm face.

"Because you're in darkness without a shadow."

Qin Yu Zhu looked at Wong Li sharply. His lungs were pumping air quickly. He did not like Wong Li's reply which he thought was too meddling in his affairs.

"Not mind me. Just take care of your own life." Qin Yu Zhu turned his face away from Wong Li.

"I'm just warning you, miss. Don't think Miss Yin doesn't know what you're doing." After saying that, he turned around.

Qin Yu Zhu looked at Wong Li's back with widened eyes. He could not believe that Wong Li would speak like that.

'No! Not likely. Wong Li must have just bullied me. Miss Yin couldn't possibly know if I liked Mr. Heng. Arghh!' Qin Yu Zhu slammed his hand.

Wong Li left the Qin Yushang residence. He did not return to the banquet hall and left behind some mouthfuls of food.

Not wanting more and more to suspect him, Qin Yu Zhu returned to the banquet hall and took his food. Luckily, no one asked where he was before.

Fang Yin, Jian Heng and Acong bade to leave first. They would train on the rock hill where Fang Yin and Jian Heng had trained before. Given that it was late at night, they would only go to practice for a short while.

Fang Yin sat alone while Acong trained with Jian Heng. In terms of teaching and giving directions, Jian Heng was superior to Fang Yin. All this time he had been used to being a teacher in the Nine Star Sect.

They trained until midnight. By the time they returned to Qin Yushang's villa, the place was already very quiet. Most likely they have fallen asleep.

Jian Heng and Fang Yin did not exchange rooms because there was Acong living with him.

The next day, the,

They gathered in the hall and did the training as usual. Today Fang Yin also did his duty to provide medical training to the Yu family.

Acong gathered with his family to let go of his longing while listening to the teachings of Jian Heng. Lin He looked very enthusiastic seeing the arrival of his grandson. Her grandchildren are growing faster than children her age.

Acong's current body was already taller than the last time they met. It was with a feeling that Gong Yu hugged her son tightly. He could not enjoy his childhood any longer and lead a different life with friends his age.

Acong has great ambitions in his life. Sometimes he wants to play with other kids his age. However, the desire to be strong was greater than that so he ignored his playing days.

Gong Yu refocused on listening to the training conducted by Jian Heng. Perhaps this was the last day for the training given by Jian Heng. Next they must improve and prepare themselves to face life in the outside world.

Elsewhere, somewhere else,

Fang Yin and the Yu family discussed about how to concoct good medicine. He also taught some prescription medicines that were vital to their survival.

In addition, Fang Yin also taught rescue measures to patients with certain complaints. Each person with a different disease will require different treatment. As a doctor in the modern world, Agata Moen who was in Fang Yin's body currently possessed an extremely vast knowledge.

Fang Yin taught medicine with theory and practice. He gives a first-hand example of how to provide first aid in emergency cases.

Outside the hall, the,

Guan Xin did physical exercise in person. They follow the movements made by them. Several attack techniques, dodging techniques and Qi regulation techniques were taught him in a calculating manner.

Some of the people who take this training are beginners and some are trained troops. Guan Xing gave a different treatment to them. For those who have mastered it, he is enough to give correction to them.

As in the previous days, the training that was conducted ended before noon. They should do other activities besides practicing with them.

In another corner, the five demons sat down and watched what the humans were doing before him. They were interested and secretly listened and learned what Guan Xing had to say.

A week later,

Many things have been taught to the inhabitants of the Black Jade. Fang Yin had also mastered the Nine-star Dragon Book. The five demons who originally wanted to capture Acong and bring him to King A Hui changed their minds. Now they sided with Fang Yin and promised to become his loyal followers. After this they will still return to the fire kingdom in Mount Shui Yang and preach everything.

Qin Yushang gathered the entire population of the Black Jade inside the hall. He ordered his people to prepare themselves. A few more days the protective formation that enveloped the region would be opened. After that day there will be no more barrier between the Black Jade hill and the outside world.

Residents who live in this place can go out freely to see the outside world. The North Mainland is not a developed area and can be categorized as urban. However, they have a balanced life.

The existence of ancient tombs with various kinds of artifacts and other hidden treasures became an attraction for the newcomers. The surrounding residents could take advantage of this state of affairs to trade and rent out residences.

Jian Heng was very sure, the beauty of the villas in the Black Jade hill will be a special attraction for visitors. In the future, he was confident that this village would continue to grow.

Fang Yin also praised the culinary richness in this place. The women in this place have good cooking skills. The herbs and spices they mix have a unique taste. There are also healthful effects from the ingredients they use.

The residents of the Black Jade said many thanks to Fang Yin, Jian Heng and Guan Xing. What is happening now is exactly the same as what is written in the ancient prophecies that they believe so far.

"Miss Yin, rest during a quiet day." Qin Yushang looked very pleased.

"of course. I'll enjoy the beauty of this place before it gets polluted by the outside world." Fang Yin returned Qin Yushang's smile.

Qin Yu Zhu looked frustrated as Wong Li continued to spy on him. He barely had a chance to get close to Jian Heng. As well as today, Wong Li continued to appear as she tried to approach him.

Tired of his empty wishful thinking, Qin Yu Zhu went to the vegetable field on the edge of the village. He was sitting alone in a ditch. His feet plunged into a ditch that was not drained by water. It is currently a dry season so the villagers rely on water from the mountains to irrigate their crops.

"Ehem!" Someone was shaking to show his presence.

Qin Yu Zhu looked over. His face was terrified when he saw it.

"Sorry, do I look so scary?" The man pushed his hand forward then took a step back.

"Ah, no-no problem. What are you doing here?" Qin Yu Zhu stood up and looked at the man awkwardly.

"My name is Tan Yuxi." The man introduced himself to Qin Yu Zhu.

Qin Yu Zhu nodded. He was sure that Tan Yuhi already knew what his name was. As the daughter of the leader of the Black Jade hill, she is quite popular and her name is often mentioned by people around her.

"I see if you're daydreaming, can we be friends?" Tan Yuhi spoke softly, much different from her attitude when she first came to this place.

"Em, I'm just bored. So I went here to drive out the saturated." Qin Yu Zhu reasoned. He tries to hide his true feelings.

A demon's instinct was very strong, he could guess the change in facial expression of his interlocutor. Tan Yuhi saw a great disappointment in him, rather the woman before him was heartbroken. However, even though she knew about it, she did not want to offend him.

"I really like this place too. Is this the plant you usually cook for us?" ask Tan Yuhi.

He hoped that Qin Yu Zhu would forget his sorrow if they discussed anything else. Sure enough, the woman immediately answered him and seemed excited to tell the plantation in front of him. The two talked about plant-based food in front of them.

Someone saw their familiarity from a distant place. A smile that indicates that he is happy.

"I must make the two come closer. This would make the relationship between the fire demons and the residents of the Black Jade hill closer. It is likely that an alliance will form."
