Life of a Villain - Chapter 59
“Now that’s interesting,” Andy muttered as he heard Feng Hao’s words. Despite having read the book, he found no information about the Imperial Concubine’s relationship with any of the hidden families.
“Tell me more about it,” he said, his eyes fixed on the man in front of him. Feng Hao was taken aback for a moment, but a bitter smile formed on his face.
“I’m not sure. I just know she has a special connection to one of the hidden families. I know nothing about that family.”
When Andy heard that, his brows creased, but he shook his head slightly.
“Leave it. Let her come,”
Feng Hao inhaled deeply, and a red jade appeared in his hand.
“Young Master. This is the Special Command Token of the Feng Family in the Phoenix Continent. Our Patriarch has a keen eye for talent. I don’t want to say anything else to you. You will be a special guest of the Feng Family as per our patriarch’s command.” He gave Andy the jade with both hands.
Andy’s gaze was intrigued by the Red Jade’s exquisitely sculpted phoenix. His brows drew together. He’s read about the Feng Family’s Patriarch. That man values talent, and in most cases, will try to hire it. In the book, Fang Yan seduced the patriarch’s daughter, Feng Yin. She later played a major role in his support. And the most important point was that she was born with the physique of a Divine Phoenix. When she ascends to the upper world later in the book, she inherits the legacy of Primordial Phoenix.
“I will visit your Feng Family in the future,” Andy said as his thumb rubbed the jade and his gaze shifted to Feng Hao.
Feng Hao’s eyes sparkled, and a smile formed on his face. “We will wait for you in the future. I will notify the Patriarch about this.”
Feng Hao bowed and exited the courtyard, while Andy’s gaze was fixed on his departing figure as many thoughts swirled in his mind.
But Su Xin’s voice disrupted his thoughts.
“You woke up?”
Andy turned around to see Su Xin approaching him, followed by Shi Yi.
As she looked at him, he could see the tenderness in her eyes.
He smiled softly. “Yes, I told you yesterday. Few people would visit me today.”
Su Xin nodded, but she frowned as he noticed the drops of blood near the door. Her heart pounded, and a series of blurry images flooded her mind.
“Aaaahhhh,” she screamed as she staggered, clutching her head. Andy moved quickly to her side and supported her.
She was still clutching her head tightly, and beads of sweat formed on her brow as her eyelids fluttered. Andy’s gaze was fixed on her the entire time as she opened her eyes after a while.
A sharp glint appeared in her eyes for a moment, followed by a perplexed expression.
“Are you all right?” Andy asked, while still holding her shoulders.
Su Xin closed her eyes again as if struggling to remember something, before shaking her head and opening her eyes to stare at Andy, who was gently holding her shoulders.
“I’m not sure, but some memories flooded my mind. I’m not sure what it was all about. Everything appeared to be blurry. Maybe it has something to do with my prior life.”
Andy’s gaze was fixed on her for a moment, and he nodded. “Maybe. Don’t overstress and take care of yourself.”
Su Xin nodded slightly, but her gaze shifted back to the door. “What’s the deal with that blood? Are you alright?”
Andy’s lips curled up. “Nothing. Just the blood of some worthless beings. Anyway, you should take a rest. We’d be out of here in a week.”
Su Xin’s gaze remained fixed on the floor at the door, her lips pursed, and she nodded. “Okay. I do not know what happened. However, you must look after yourself.”
She turned around to leave after she finished speaking. Shi Yi’s gaze was drawn to the blood at the courtyard’s door. She pursed her lips and cast a glance at Andy before following Su Xin.
Andy’s gaze was fixed on Su Xin “It is happening. She will regain her power soon. I hope she’ll be useful to me in the upper world. Otherwise.”
A sharp glint appeared in his eyes before he shook his head and shifted his gaze to the red jade on his hand.
The Feng Family has an interesting background. Even though they are in the Lower World. Few of their ancestors have already ascended to the Middle World, and one of them is even more talented to ascend to the Upper World.
It is beneficial to establish some sort of relationship with this family. And as for Fang Yan, he could do nothing.
“Let the destiny make the way for Fang Yan. But he will always be a failure in front of me.”
His hands clutched the jade tightly, and it vanished after a moment.
“Just a little bit more and I’ll be able to enter the Soul Formation Realm. This sphere is not a worldly object. After it recognized me, I could slow the time down to forty-five times, which will increase as I gain power.”
Andy exhaled deeply.
“This is really interesting. I never imagined that this world would be able to excite me.” Andy muttered as he exited the courtyard and began walking towards the carriage.
But his steps came to a halt as his gaze was drawn to the Driver, who was holding the hands of a woman. This was the same woman with whom he had his eyes fixed on the mountains.
Andy’s lips curled up as he vanished and reappeared behind the Driver.
The driver was so engrossed with flirting with that woman that he didn’t notice Andy was behind him. But the woman screamed when she saw a masked man in a black robe, his silver hair drooping to his waist, standing behind the driver.
“AAHHHH,”
The driver frowned as he heard the scream.
“Why are you screaming? It’s as if you’ve seen a ghost.” The driver muttered, but he noticed the woman was staring at something behind him.
His frown deepened as he turned around, but a scream escaped his lips.
“Aaahhhhh,”
