Qin Shou kicked Miyasi, and Miyasi woke up at the pain. Although he looked terrible, there was still grace in his eyes.

  “You won’t tell me the solution until I set Gu Bailu free?” Feng Qingtian crouched down and asked casually.

  Miyasi opened his mouth, only to discover that his lips were cracked.

  He had seen the brutality of human beings.

  They could torture people until the latter wanted to kill themselves.

  He couldn’t have endured it without his master’s training.

  “That’s right,” he replied, holding back the pain.

  Feng Qingtian smiled. “I can set Gu Bailu free, after my problem is dealt with.”


  Miyasi frowned. “Why should I trust you?”


  The man was too cunning. His promise meant nothing.

  “After my problem is treated, there will be plenty of women out there; why would I care about her?” Feng Qingtian remembered what Gu Bailu said.

  After I cure you, you’ll be spreading your seed all over the world like a butterfly in spring.

  That was absurd. How could he be like that?

  He was quite right. Miyasi found no reason to doubt him.

  The man was powerful and strong. The human girl didn’t have any spiritual power, despite her courage.

  She probably wouldn’t have been able to go to Cloud Mirror Academy if she hadn’t been able to approach the man thanks to their similar magnetic fields.

  “Write a contract.” Miyasi remembered his master’s lessons.

  Feng Qingtian stood up and said to Qin Shou, “Prepare one.”


  Qin Shou soon brought a contract over, with Feng Qingtian’s seal on it.

  “Are we good?” Feng Qingtian gave Miyasi the contract.

  Miyasi read it carefully before he nodded. “Yes. However, my master is the one who can treat your problem. He’s not in Southern Glory Empire.”


  “Where is he?” Feng Qingtian asked casually.

  “On Futu Island.”


  Feng Qingtian’s eyes were cold. “Why do I not know this place?”


  “Few people do. I only visited the island by accident. My master is the only inhabitant there.”


  “Bring me there.”


  Feng Qingtian stood up. “Ask a doctor to treat him.”


  Feng Qingtian left the dungeon. He certainly wouldn’t let go of the chance to cure his problem.

  He only tortured Miyasi because he didn’t like him.

  Since Gu Bailu protected him, he would deal with him in secret.

  Feng Qingtian smiled. As for Gu Bailu, if he still felt the same way about her after his body recovered, he would investigate it.

  He never said anything about abiding by the contract.

  It was already the next afternoon when Gu Bailu woke up. She found herself still in the palace where she had passed out.

  The marble floors were as clear as mirrors, and the gold pillars made her want to dig them out.

  The other decorations were more low-key, but extravagant nonetheless.

  The very bed she was sleeping on was made of ebony.

  Ebony grew very slowly in extremely harsh environments. It had the color of metal, and could keep bugs and diseases away.

  Was she cured because of the bed? Where was Miyasi?

  She frowned. She seemed to recall Miyasi saying that he could cure Feng Qingtian’s problem.

  Was that an illusion, or had it been real?
