The Heavenly Dragon's Beginning in the Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 31 Sweet Words and a Rush to Swallow's Nest

Ling Feng then pressed his advantage, offering the little girl further comforting words, which finally brought a smile to her face through her tears.

Zhong Ling, who was standing to the side, had seen their entire behavior. Fortunately, Ling Feng had given her some instructions, so she had no resentment or dissatisfaction at the moment.

After the little girl stopped crying and started laughing, Ling Feng made some promises to her, and she finally let go of her resentment and began to accept Zhong Ling's existence.

In fact, judging from the original work, Wang Yuyan is not a jealous person. The reason she acted that way was because she was in a murky relationship with Ling Feng, which made her anxious and worried that Ling Feng didn't want her anymore.

Now that Ling Feng has made his feelings clear, she naturally has no more worries, after all, they are true childhood sweethearts.

Having accepted Zhong Ling's presence, she broke free from Ling Feng's embrace and turned to Zhong Ling beside her with a happy expression, saying:

"Ling'er, welcome to Mantuo Manor."

"Ling'er thanks you, sister. I apologize for my intrusion. I hope you won't be offended."

Hearing her say that, Wang Yuyan turned and glared at Ling Feng before turning back to say:

"What are you saying, Ling'er? How could I possibly blame you? If anyone should be blamed, it's Brother Feng."

"Yes, it's all this big jerk's fault."

After the two found a common target to attack, they immediately started talking more. Seeing their harmonious appearance, Ling Feng awkwardly wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead.

He was really worried that things would go wrong in that chaotic scene, but thankfully the final result was not bad. If it had turned out badly, he would have regretted it immensely.

But this also served as a reminder to him that he couldn't be so direct anymore; everything had to be done gradually.

After the two women started to get along, the three of them disembarked together.

Stepping onto the land of Mantuo Manor once again, Ling Feng's heart, which had been yearning for home, was finally at peace. After all, although he had integrated the memories of his previous life, the memories of those eighteen years in this life were undeniable.

The three arrived at the main hall of Mantuo Manor and found that Madam Wang was already waiting there. She was not surprised to see Ling Feng return, which meant that a servant had already informed her of his return.

Upon seeing her again, Ling Feng, though filled with mixed emotions, did not hesitate to greet her respectfully. He quickly stepped forward and bowed.

"Godmother, I'm back."

"Yes, it's good that you're back safe and sound."

She remained indifferent to Ling Feng's greetings, as always, but fortunately, Ling Feng was already used to it.

After giving a calm response, she immediately asked Ling Feng another question.

"How was your trip outside?"

"Hehe, it's quite a sight outside."

Ling Feng was telling the truth; his experience on this trip was truly remarkable, and he gained a great deal from it.

However, Madam Wang was very curious about his answer, after all, she knew that the martial arts world was not an easy place to navigate.

"Oh, tell me quickly, how wonderful is it?"

"Hehe, that's a long story. After I left here, I first went to Suzhou, where I got a fast horse, and then I headed west..."

Ling Feng then slowly recounted his experiences on this trip, though he still omitted anything about the system, as it was his biggest secret that he would never tell anyone.

During his narration, Ling Feng noticed that Madam Wang was briefly lost in thought when he talked about various things in Dali, especially when he mentioned Duan Zhengchun, she was completely stunned.

Ling Feng knew why she was behaving this way, but he certainly wouldn't point it out. He could only pretend he hadn't noticed and continue recounting his experiences.

Ling Feng spoke for half an hour before he finally finished recounting his experience on this trip.

To his surprise, after hearing his story, Madam Wang only told him to be careful when he went out in the future, and then left in a hurry, without even asking Zhong Ling, who had come back with Ling Feng.

Ling Feng knew why she left in such a hurry, but this surprised both Wang Yuyan and the other woman. Her unusual behavior really puzzled them.

But the two women didn't delve into it further, since it wasn't their business.

Next, Ling Feng strolled around Mantuo Manor with the two women, and took Zhong Ling on a tour of the entire island.

It wasn't until evening that the three of them saw Madam Wang again, and she had now returned to her dignified appearance.

Only then did she notice Zhong Ling's presence. Ling Feng had to explain at length before she finally accepted Zhong Ling's existence.

Of course, Ling Feng didn't forget to clarify his feelings for Wang Yuyan, as he didn't want to leave any potential problems for the future.

Furthermore, Madam Wang was already well aware of his relationship with Wang Yuyan, but she simply hadn't brought it up.

Her willingness to accept Zhong Ling so easily likely stemmed from her guilt towards Ling Feng, coupled with Ling Feng's willingness to make promises to both women, which led her to agree to the matter.

Now that Zhong Ling had been settled, Ling Feng prepared to go to Yanziwu.

Firstly, it was to complete the sign-in task, and secondly, it was to stop Kumārajīva from disrupting the peace of Mantuo Manor.

Early the next morning, Ling Feng rowed his boat alone to the Murong family's Swallow Dock.

The Murong family's Swallow's Nest is also located on this lake, not far from Mantuo Manor.

Although their relationship with the Murong family wasn't great, Ling Feng had been to Yanziwu a few times before, so he knew its location.

After rowing for nearly an hour, Ling Feng finally arrived at Swallow's Nest.

Like Mantuo Villa, Swallow's Nest is located on a small island, but the island where Swallow's Nest is located is much larger than the island where Mantuo Villa is located.

Moreover, this place not only houses the Murong family's Canhe Manor, but also the manors of the four great generals, including Bao Butong.

As expected of the place where the Murong family prepared to start their rebellion, Yanziwu was heavily guarded. Ling Feng was discovered as soon as he approached.

After Ling Feng reached the shore, he found two girls in their early twenties standing on the bank.

Although Ling Feng hadn't been here many times before, he recognized the two young women. They were A Zhu and A Bi, two maids from the Murong family. Of course, Ling Feng knew them, and they knew Ling Feng too.

"Azhu and Abi greet Young Master Biao."

"Yes, sisters, there's no need for such formalities."

Seeing the two women greet him, Ling Feng returned the greeting with great courtesy.

The two women were curious as to why this young master, who hadn't visited in years, would come here today.

"Is Young Master here to see the young master? If so, you've made a wasted trip today. The young master left some time ago."

"Oh, it's alright. I didn't come here on purpose. I just had some free time lately, so I decided to wander around."

Ling Feng knew, of course, that Murong Fu was not at home. He should be at Yipintang in Xixia right now. If it weren't for the sign-in task, Ling Feng wouldn't have come here.

Only then did Ling Feng begin to carefully examine the two girls. When he came here before, he hadn't paid much attention to them because his memories hadn't awakened. Now that his memories had awakened, he couldn't help but take a closer look at the two girls in front of him.

Both women were quite beautiful; A'Zhu had the air of a lady from a prominent family, while A'Bi was the typical girl from a modest family.

In the original novel, A'Zhu was a woman who dared to love and hate. Her love-hate entanglement with Xiao Feng was quite regrettable. If she hadn't died tragically at Xiao Feng's hands so early, Xiao Feng might not have committed suicide in the end.

Abi embodies loyalty to the fullest. In the original story, after Murong Fu failed to restore his kingdom, he ended up mentally impaired, and in the end, only Abi remained loyal to him.
