Hearing this, Mo Xuanye left the two weakest ones alive and took out the rest within three moves.
This speed was a bit overwhelming for the two survivors.
At the same time, their eyes were filled with terror as they looked at Mo Xuanye.
"Hey, concentrate! Otherwise, you'll lose your life," Feng Yuqin said to one of them.
A glint of cruelty flashed across the man's eyes, and he began to fight back.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He launched several consecutive attacks at Feng Yuqin.
These men were a whole level more powerful than Feng Yuqin, so they thought it would be a piece of cake to kill her.
Even if Mo Xuanye was around, they hoped to at least injure her.
Unfortunately, after a few rounds, they found that although Feng Yuqin was not as powerful as them, her movements were as swift as a ghost.
The Feng Yuqin who was standing right in front of them one moment would be behind them the next.
This speed made their scalps tingle.
After cultivating her soul power, Feng Yuqin's speed was many times faster than in her previous life.
These two men tried their best but couldn't even scratch her.
"Master's speed is getting faster and faster," Xiao Ying said with a smile while watching the battle from the space.
"Master was already very powerful. After cultivation, it's no problem for her to challenge those above her level," Xiao Jin said.
"Right, and Master is good at psychological warfare," Xiao Ying continued. "These two men are much stronger than Master, but their strategies are far inferior to hers."
Xiao Ying, who had watched Feng Yuqin fight many times, had already figured out her tactics.
These two men were full of fighting spirit at first, but when they found that they couldn't kill Feng Yuqin despite their much greater strength, their mental state began to crumble.
Feng Yuqin didn't counterattack immediately but continued to break down their mental state.
It wasn't until one of them began to slow down and his attacks became chaotic that a sly look flashed across Feng Yuqin's eyes. She struck with a quick, accurate, and powerful sword thrust straight into his heart.
The man's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe that he had been killed by someone so much weaker than him.
Feng Yuqin didn't have time to care about his shock at the moment.
After killing one of them, she immediately flashed away to deal with the other.
The surviving man was even more mentally broken when he saw his comrade killed by Feng Yuqin.
So, within less than twenty rounds, just like the previous one, he was pierced through the heart by a sword.
"Master is so amazing!" Xiao Jin exclaimed excitedly.
"Qin'er is really great," Mo Xuanye praised without hesitation. His eyes were full of pride. This was the woman he had chosen. She was indeed different from those delicate women.
Even when facing enemies stronger than herself, she was clean and decisive.
Mo Xuanye sent Feng Yuqin to the outside of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Feng Yi also appeared.
Seeing that Feng Yi came out from inside, Feng Yuqin asked in surprise, "What were you doing in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Feng Yi replied, "Protecting the princess's mother."
Feng Yuqin: "..."
She looked at the man beside her. She didn't expect this man to be more considerate than herself.
Although she had left Lv'e and the others in the mansion, Mo Xuanye had actually sent Feng Yi to protect them.
She took a deep breath and looked at Mo Xuanye, saying, "Thank you."
Mo Xuanye said indulgently, "Qin'er, you don't need to say thank you to me in the future. I'm willing to protect you and your relatives."
I'm willing...
Thinking of his words, Feng Yuqin said, "So am I..."
A look of surprise flashed across Feng Yi's eyes. Had the master finally won over the princess?
So, what had happened between them in the Cloud Peak Forest?
What could make the usually calm princess say such words?
After all, he had interacted with Feng Yuqin a few times during this period and knew that she was the kind of person who would do what she said.
Although the master's relatives weren't very kind to him, the princess didn't know that, yet she could say such words.
"Go in," Mo Xuanye said. Having received her response, he was in a great mood, and the smile at the corners of his eyes couldn't be hidden.
...
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Feng Yuqin immediately went to her mother's courtyard. She found that her mother had already gone to bed. She told Lv'e and Xiahe to guard her mother well. She was going to go into seclusion for three days to try to raise her alchemist level to Level Three.
For three whole days and nights, she not only upgraded to a Level Three alchemist but also refined the antidotes to cure her mother and little uncle. At the same time, she refined countless pills to prepare for the opening of the shop.
When Yan Aojun woke up on the first morning, she heard from Lv'e that Feng Yuqin had returned but was going into seclusion for three days.
She calculated that her daughter would come out of seclusion tonight, so she came to wait in Feng Yuqin's courtyard at noon. She waited from noon until night.
When Feng Yuqin opened the door, she saw Yan Aojun standing outside. She immediately stepped forward and asked, "Mother, why did you come?"
"I heard you were back, but I didn't see you, so I was worried," Yan Aojun said, holding her daughter's hand.
"I'm fine," Feng Yuqin knew her mother was worried about her and comforted her. "Didn't you ask me to go to the Cloud Peak Forest with Mo Xuanye before? So I did. Look, I'm back safe and sound."
"Feng Yi is in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I already know about this," Yan Aojun said.
Feng Yuqin raised her eyebrows. "So did the Second Lady and the others cause trouble for you?"
Otherwise, Feng Yi wouldn't have exposed his presence in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Yan Aojun nodded. "But with Feng Yi around, they didn't get any advantage. Plus, Feng Yi represents the Fourth Prince, so your father backed down."
Mentioning Feng Pingqiu, a look of disdain flashed across Yan Aojun's eyes.
Feng Yuqin wasn't surprised that her scumbag father would back down.
"Mother, after I have dinner with you, I'll go and ask them for your dowry," Feng Yuqin said.
Hearing this, Lv'e immediately asked someone to serve dinner.
Yan Aojun was very happy to see her daughter safe and sound. But when she heard her talk about the dowry, her eyebrows furrowed slightly. "I have quite a lot of dowry. I'm afraid they won't agree to give it back."
This was something she had gradually learned after marrying into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Although the Prime Minister's Mansion looked unattainable on the outside, it was actually not as glorious as it seemed.
She dared to say that if it weren't for her dowry at the beginning, the Prime Minister's Mansion wouldn't have been able to sustain itself.
So, it wouldn't be easy to get them to give back such a large fortune.
"Then it's not up to them," Feng Yuqin said calmly. "It seems they're quite unself - aware. I've been to the Cloud Peak Forest for a few days and then in seclusion for three days. Logically, they should have sent your dowry back long ago. But there's been no movement at all. I'm not going to be polite to them later."
"I'm completely disappointed in your father. You can do whatever you want. Mother will support you," Yan Aojun firmly stood on her daughter's side.
Feng Yuqin felt relieved. She had been worried that her mother still had feelings for her scumbag father.
