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

Feng Jiutian also learned from Mo Siniang how to break the control over Ji Xiao: by mixing the essence blood of the current Holy Maiden of the Gu Mo Clan with a drop of the heart blood of a member of the Holy Blood Clan.

Because Yang Yuehua is a demon, the blood of the Holy Blood Clan can restrain all demons, including poison and control. As long as a method is found, the curse can be quickly broken.

After leaving the valley, Feng Jiutian quickly found Ji Xiao. She had already obtained the essence blood from Mo Qiniang. Mo Qiniang was a little tired after obtaining the essence blood, and Feng Jiutian felt a little guilty, so she stuffed a bunch of tonics into Mo Qiniang's hands. She only stopped stuffing things into Mo Qiniang's hands after Mo Qiniang waved her hand and said that she didn't need them anymore.

Feng Jiutian is naturally aloof and doesn't know how to treat someone well. When she feels guilty towards someone, she just stuffs them with things. She's happy to do this, and she's happy to do it, so why not?

As for the heart blood of her Holy Blood Clan, it was simple. Feng Jiutian herself was a member of the Holy Blood Clan. She used her spiritual power to force out a drop of heart blood, mixed the two drops together, and fed it directly to Ji Xiao.

After swallowing the heart's blood, Ji Xiao's spiritual power fluctuated for a moment. Then, a small black insect crawled out of his ear and turned to ashes in mid-air!

Ji Xiao's blank stare gradually brightened, and she was startled when she saw Feng Jiutian: "Jiu... Jiutian?"

He looked around and asked somewhat cautiously, "What are you doing here?"

"Look who's bewitched you here." Feng Jiutian answered Ji Xiao coldly, then, as if remembering something, added, "Isn't Miss Yue very pretty?"

"This……"

Ji Xiao's face flushed red, and she lowered her head shyly: "Not really, Miss Yue is pretty, but she has a great temperament..."

"idiot!"

Feng Jiutian interrupted Ji Xiao sharply, a chill running through Ji Xiao's body from the coldness between his brows: "You don't even know who's controlling you, yet you're still thinking about the woman who's controlling you? Is your brain filled with mush?"

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Ji Xiao. His smile froze, slowly fading from his face. He asked, seemingly in disbelief, "Could this be fake...? Miss Yue is a very kind person..."

“Hehe.” Feng Zhi, who was standing next to Ji Tianzuo, rolled her eyes and chuckled twice with an ambiguous meaning.

"Tianzuo, tell me, is Miss Yue a good person?" Ji Xiao winked at Ji Tianzuo, wanting Ji Tianzuo to say a few words on his behalf to prove that he wasn't blind.

However, Ji Tianzuo remained unmoved, standing still as if he hadn't seen Ji Xiao's expression, and said coldly, "She's not a good person. We all know that except for you."

One sentence sealed his fate. Ji Xiao's face turned ashen, and he stammered, "It shouldn't be... right? Miss Yue said she wanted to marry me..."

He muttered to himself, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, as if trying to prove something, but his energy deflated when he met Feng Jiutian's cold gaze.

"The second time."

Feng Jiutian pushed Mo Shaoxie's wheelchair past Ji Xiao and said in a calm voice, "This is the second time you've misjudged people. I don't blame you, but if it happens a third time, you should leave Jiuxiao on your own."

Ji Xiao pursed his lips. His feelings for Feng Jiutian were very complicated. On one hand, he was grateful, and on the other hand, he felt guilty. He had lost face in front of Feng Jiutian for the second time, which made Ji Xiao lose face.

"Yes, I won't do it again," Ji Xiao said in a low voice, head bowed.

Feng Jiutian did not answer, but leisurely pushed Mo Shaoxie's wheelchair through Yushan Mountain.

Ji Xiao regained his senses, and Feng Jiutian then sent them out to search for the owner of the jade pendant.

With Mo Si Niang's personal testimony, Feng Jiutian was basically certain that the person carrying the jade pendant was a member of the Holy Blood Clan. She had never met a member of the Holy Blood Clan before, so she felt a sense of anticipation during her search.

Several days passed without any news, and Feng Jiutian didn't encounter anything interesting. The Yushan Mountain, which everyone said was dangerous, seemed rather leisurely to her.

"Girl, there are plenty of medicinal herbs here, remember to pick as many as you can."

Xuanji Zi would occasionally float out from the Void Spirit Cauldron to remind Feng Jiutian, but he would only come out when Mo Shaoxie was not around, which was very suspicious, and Feng Jiutian kept it in mind.

On one occasion, just as Mo Shaoxie was away from her side again, Xuanji Zi appeared again and said, "Girl, there's some noise in the northwest corner, should we go take a look?"

"Xuanjizi, I think we need to talk."

Feng Jiutian didn't answer Xuanji Zi's question. Instead, he sat on the stone bed, crossed his legs, stared at Xuanji Zi, and said with narrowed eyes, "Tell me, why do you always come out after the Seventh Prince leaves? Is it because he can see you... or do you know something?"

"Well..."

Xuanji Zi smiled somewhat awkwardly, her eyes darting around: "This is probably because the Seventh Prince is the Son of Heaven, and his aura always seems to restrain me. It's always better for me to keep my distance."

"Keep making it up."

"..."

Feng Jiutian's expression seemed somewhat indifferent, but her slightly cold tone betrayed her displeasure. She asked, "Tell me, when did you find out?"

Upon seeing Feng Jiutian's appearance, Xuanji Zi immediately thought, "It's over."

Without any warning, Feng Jiutian already knew that the Seventh Prince was Mo Shaoxie. That didn't mean that she was just putting on an act with Mo Shaoxie until today when she discovered his true colors and came to confront him.

Even facing the enraged Feng Jiutian, Xuanji Zi dared not provoke him. He coughed twice and said in a voice barely above a whisper, "I noticed something was amiss when you first met, and I knew it the second time..."

"Then why did you keep it from me for so long?"

Feng Jiutian thought that Xuanji Zi only found out later, but she didn't expect him to know so early on, which made her so angry that she kept releasing cold air.

The thought of how Mo Shaoxie had been playing tricks on her from the beginning, and how Xuanjizi had seen everything step by step, made her want to kill someone to vent her anger!

Seeing Feng Jiutian's expression, a hint of a sigh flashed in Xuanji Zi's eyes. He coughed twice and whispered in Feng Jiutian's ear, "Girl, let me ask you, do you hate Mo Shaoxie?"

Hate it?

It seems... not so bad.

Feng Jiutian lowered his head, pursed his lips, and remained silent; the answer was obvious.

"Since you don't dislike him, why care about his status? As long as you have him in your heart, even if he's a lump of mud, you'll protect him for the rest of your life, won't you?"
