A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Feng Xuan was standing by the window in his room, quietly looking out. Several birds flew back and forth in the trees from time to time, chirping incessantly, full of life and vitality.

He stood there for an unknown amount of time. When he came to his senses, Feng Xuan felt that his body had improved significantly. Just a few days ago, he had been lying in bed all day and was unable to get up.

It's incredible that I can stand here for so long without feeling tired. Although my body is still weak, my current condition is already a miracle.

When Feng Jiutian arrived at Feng Xuan's courtyard, she was surprised to see him standing inside with his back slightly hunched.

Because she knew about Feng Xuan's sickly state when he was lying in bed a few days ago, she felt a little incredulous.

Feng Jiutian secretly admired Xuanji Zi's extraordinary abilities, and at the same time felt that she could definitely learn a lot from Xuanji Zi.

"What brings you to Grandpa's place?" Feng Xuan smiled kindly at Feng Jiutian and asked nothing.

He just looked at Feng Jiutian with a face full of doting affection, as if he were looking at a child who would never grow up.

"I want to see how Grandpa is doing with the pills?" Feng Jiutian replied calmly.

"Fortunately, I was able to get out of bed and walk today." Feng Xuan's voice was still a little weak and lacked strength.

Seeing that Feng Xuan was alright, Feng Jiutian chatted casually for a few words before leaving.

Feng Jiutian walked through the mansion without looking to the side, carefully observing the situation in the Prime Minister's residence, silently making a plan in her mind.

The Feng residence has been rather quiet these past few days, as Feng Xiangyu has been busy with the Seventh Prince's wedding and has not been home.

Qian Wanyi and her daughter remained in a low mood, spending their days in their room plotting something without making any significant moves.

Feng Jiutian thought that this was a good opportunity to gradually expand his influence in the manor, to teach that mother and daughter a lesson, to put an end to their usual arrogance, and to establish his own authority.

At the same time, it's also a good opportunity to test the effects of the pills I recently refined.

……

At this moment, Qian Wanyi and her daughter were having a meal in the hall, with maids and servants standing respectfully behind them, ready to serve at any time.

Feng Jiutian walked arrogantly into the hall, looking indifferent as if he didn't care about anyone.

Seeing Feng Jiutian approach, Feng Lingfu felt a surge of anger. She put down her chopsticks and sneered at Feng Jiutian, "Who do we have here? It's you, you ruthless vixen!"

"Say it again." Feng Jiutian didn't even look at Feng Lingfu, his tone somewhat provocative.

"I said…"

Before Feng Lingfu could finish speaking, Feng Jiutian appeared in front of her without her noticing, grabbing her by the neck with one hand and his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"What are you doing? Let go of Feng Lingfu right now!" Qian Wanyi said anxiously.

However, looking at Feng Jiutian, he dared not approach her easily. Ever since he witnessed Feng Jiutian cruelly murdering the steward, he seemed to be very wary of her.

"I'm just teaching her the rules of the household, so she knows her place."

After saying that, Feng Jiutian casually took out a pill he had refined and put it into Feng Lingfu's mouth. After she swallowed it, he released Feng Lingfu.

"Cough cough, what did you feed me?" Feng Lingfu coughed incessantly, as if trying to cough up what Feng Jiutian had given her.

"Don't worry, you won't die. You can enjoy the fruits of my labor these past few days." Feng Jiutian said mockingly, his cold eyes sending chills down the spines of Qian Wanyi and her daughter.

This pill is enough to let Feng Lingfu experience the agony of unbearable pain!

The atmosphere in the Prime Minister's residence seemed to be changing.

Previously, Jifeng would have been dismissive of the Prime Minister's eldest daughter at the mere mention of her, but now, the mere mention of her name caused his face to turn deathly pale and his voice to tremble in silence.

Unbeknownst to them, the title of "young lady" seemed to be becoming increasingly useful in the Prime Minister's residence!

……

Feng Jiutian closed his eyes to rest and quietly cultivated.

The alchemy process had consumed a lot of my spiritual energy recently, but in the past few days I've been showing signs of a breakthrough.

"Destruction precedes construction," Xuanji Zi said in a deep voice, unable to conceal the joy in his voice.

After all, once Feng Jiutian advances, it will be a qualitative leap.

"Girl, aren't you afraid of Feng Lingyu coming back after you publicly disciplined that mother and daughter?"

Xuanji Zi asked, somewhat puzzled.

Logically speaking, in his mind, Feng Jiutian was not someone who couldn't tolerate such things.

Such a high-profile reprimand of Qian Wanyi and her daughter is not like her style.

Feng Jiutian was teasing the golden snake in his spiritual sea when he heard this, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

"Since they dared to do it, they will definitely get their comeuppance. Don't blame me for being ruthless; they deserve it." Feng Jiutian explained, rarely speaking much, his eyes cold and filled with endless killing intent.

Xuanji Zi quickly understood.

It seems the girl is seeking revenge on Qingzhi. After all, she didn't really deal with them last time. Now that Feng Lingyu is not in the manor, she doesn't have to be so restrained in her actions.

On the other side, Qian Wanyi was looking at Feng Lingfu, who was being treated by the doctor, with a pained expression on her face.

"Doctor, will something happen to my daughter?"

The doctor stroked his long, thin white beard and shook his head: "Miss Ling is just a little weak, nothing serious. Just prescribe some tonics to replenish her qi and blood, and make sure she keeps warm."

Qian Wanyi opened her mouth as if to say something, but suddenly stopped.

She suddenly remembered the pills that Feng Jiutian had fed to Feng Lingfu.

Since it is a pill, it will only have a temporary effect and will not leave any trace.

Although there were maids in the hall at the time, they were all afraid of Feng Jiutian and did not dare to step forward.

It seems she's destined to suffer this injustice in silence.

"Thank you for your help, doctor."

Qian Wanyi said somewhat helplessly, full of scheming but with no opportunity to put it into practice.

Now that Feng Lingyu is no longer in the mansion, and Feng Xuan has also woken up and is even able to move around freely, the Prime Minister's mansion will naturally be managed by Feng Xuan.

Feng Xuan was known for doting on Feng Jiutian, so Qian Wanyi didn't expect him to help her get justice. She was afraid that if she went to Feng Xuan, she would only suffer more.

Now all we can do is wait for Feng Lingyu to return, and then Feng Xuan will go out to recuperate again.

Qian Wanyi gritted her teeth, thinking with some resentment.

"Don't worry, Fu'er. Once the old man is gone, your mother will naturally seek justice for you."

Qian Wanyi said through gritted teeth, her face full of malice, yet she still gently comforted the weeping Feng Lingfu.

However, what she didn't know was that Feng Xuan was recovering day by day with the pills given to him by Feng Jiutian, and she was afraid that her hopes would be dashed again.
