Primordial Cultivator - Chapter 410: Cottage

After flying in the sky for a few minutes, Jing Feng noticed a small cottage on the small mountain ahead of them. The time it took to arrive here was far longer than Yang Wei had expected.

Unlike the world he knew previously, the Jing Clan residence size was simply too large to predict.

‘Even the imperial house in the Phoenix Kingdom pales in comparison to the size of Jing Feng’s house.’ Yang Wei thought to himself, his hand gripping slightly tighter on Jing Feng’s waist.

Jing Feng noticed the increased grip of Yang Wei but brooded over it as she maneuvered her flying sword for a landing.

The moment they landed, a few servants from the inside came out. Shock and disbelief filled their faces as they felt the ice-chilling glare from Jing Feng.

“Y-Young Miss Jing Feng!”

The servants shouted in unison while sweat was pouring out of their foreheads. Clearly, they weren’t expecting the intruder to be the missing young miss of their clan.

Not to mention, no one had heard from Jing Feng in a long time.

Thus, almost everyone had nearly forgotten her existence or even believed she had died if it weren’t for the jade tablet being intact.

As the servants revealed fear in their eyes, Jing Feng merely snorted and pointed at one of the servants.

“Bring me to my mother.” She coldly ordered.

The servant shuddered for a brief moment, and before she could respond, Jing Feng released some of her aura.

“X-X-Xiantian Realm…” The servant’s mouth was so wide that it could probably have three bananas stuffed into her mouth.

As for the other servants, they were clever enough to try their best to avoid Jing Feng’s eyesight.

In their mind, they all had this sentence going on, ‘the young miss chose you and not us, so be the hero and sacrifice yourself’.

Seeing the swift betrayal from her companion, the servant could only swallow a mouthful of saliva before making an awkward smile.

“T-The madam was ordered to be in the cottage and could not leave the premises.” The servant said, her mouth twitching uncomfortably.

Just when the servant was about to guide Jing Feng inside, her eyes noticed an unfamiliar figure beside Jing Feng.

“T-This is?” She tried to enquire about the identity of the young man.

Unfortunately for her though, Jing Feng’s patience had long run out. Hence, with a wave of her hand, she directly sent the servant flying.

The servant was pushed by a force stronger than her by many times, and without any resistance, she knocked on the wall and coughed up a mouthful of blood. Her body lay weakly on the ground and the sign of her life was slowly draining.

Meanwhile, Jing Feng didn’t even bat an eyelid as she pointed at another servant that was kneeling on the ground.

After the outburst of her power, the servant being pointed didn’t even hesitate to get up and began showing Jing Feng the way. Not an ounce of sound was emitted from the servant since she didn’t want to meet the same fate as the first one.

One example was enough to let them wake up and do as they ask.

“Let’s go,” Jing Feng turned around and said to Yang Wei. She tried to flash him a gentle smile, but the anger inside her prevented it. Therefore, it almost looked like Jing Feng was making a funny expression as a joke.

Yang Wei naturally knew better than to remind her of such an embarrassing act. Right now was not the time for teasing and he would find a better time later on to tease her about this incident.

“Un, your mother must be missing you dearly by now. Try to remain joyful so as not to worry her.” Yang Wei said calmly.

Jing Feng nodded her head before making a hand gesture for the servant to start guiding them.

Shortly after, they arrived at the cottage. However, one thing quickly attracted Jing Feng’s attention. And it was the chain that was locked on the entrance.

A murderous glint flashed in her eyes, and Yang Wei hurriedly placed a hand behind her back.

“Don’t worry any longer. With you here, mother-in-law would not be treated like this anymore.” Yang Wei whispered softly into her ear.

In terms of cultivation, Yang Wei was far behind Jing Feng. But when it comes to mentality and maturity, Yang Wei has seen much worse.

Hence, he knew what Jing Feng was going through and the best course of action was to soothe her emotions.

Meanwhile, the servant had long unlocked the chain and excused herself, barely escaping from a life-and-death situation.

Of course, Jing Feng knew the servant was most likely escaping to inform the other elders, but she didn’t bother making a move. A servant is no different than an animal, and killing her would yield no result anyway.

The main culprits are the elders that collectively agreed to lock her mother up.

“Hmph, those elders better watch out.” Jing Feng gnashed her teeth, clenching her fist.

“I will skin each one of them alive for forcing my mother to live in this crappy cottage.” She added.

‘Crappy cottage? Even though it’s called a cottage, the place is still huge…’ Yang Wei made another glance at the cottage and wondered how it was a crappy cottage.

If he had to be honest, such a cottage was something he would want to live in.

While he was lost in a daze, Jing Feng had already opened the door, shocking the person inside. The cottage was built with a formation that blocked all sounds from the outside. Thus, the person inside didn’t hear the commotion or the sound of the chain unlocking.

The moment light flashed upon the person, one could see a slender figure from the chair. She had a mature aura around her and when she turned around, Yang Wei saw the beautiful mature woman but had a sickly look on her face.

‘She is Jing Feng’s mother, Jing Yan?’ Yang Wei was inwardly shocked by her appearance. However, that shock quickly turned into respect as he cupped his fist and greeted.

“Junior Yang Wei paid his respect to Madam Jing Yan.” Yang Wei introduced himself quickly, even faster than Jing Feng.

In front of his future mother-in-law, Yang Wei would definitely not embarrass himself and try his best to earn ‘points’ from her.

Jing Feng rolled her eyes at him before dashing forward, plunging herself directly into the arms of Jing Yan.

“Mother, I’m back.” Jing Feng coyed around her, almost like a little kid.

Feeling the warmth from Jing Feng, Jing Yan snapped out of her daze. An expression of shock filled her face as she leaned her hand forward, rubbing Jing Feng’s head.

“Is it really you, Xiao Feng?” Jing Yan said in a trembling tone, tears dripping down from her eyes.

“Y-You are finally home…”

“Mhmm, this unfilial daughter has finally returned.”

The touching reunion scene was blinding to the eyes, and Yang Wei gently left the cottage, closing the door in the meantime. It was their reunion, so he would let them have some alone time before trying to impress his future mother-in-law.

Time slowly passed by, and Yang Wei still hadn’t received his cue to enter inside.

“Sigh, it couldn’t be that I have actually been forgotten right?” Yang Wei mumbled softly. His body leaned close to the door, making sure that he was standing in front of the entrance so that no one could disturb them.

And it didn’t take long before the servant who had escaped, came back- this time, with another batch of elderly men.

The elderly men that arrived had unfriendly expressions, seemingly ready to launch a strike at any time.

Noticing their arrival, Yang Wei’s carefree attitude changed, and he had a cold expression on his face.

‘These must be the elders that imprisoned my mother-in-law.’ Yang Wei guessed based on their temper.

He made a slight glance at the door behind him and took a deep breath.

Since Jing Feng was still taking her time at her reunion, Yang Wei shall be a guard dog and block off others.

“Brat, how dare you intrude on our Jing Clan!” One of the elderly men shouted in fury.

“Hmph, why bother speaking to this brat? Just capture him and cripple his cultivation for the crime he committed.” Another elder interrupted.

“Sigh, can your lines not be any more cringe and cliche?” Yang Wei replied in disgust.

Placing his finger on his ear, Yang Wei started rubbing it and snorted, “Same old boring lines that don’t have any ounce of intelligence in the speech. Can’t you be more original and make up your own lines?”

Before the elderly men could respond to his provocation, Yang Wei continued, “Actually… forget about it. You are too old to change your ways, so there’s no point in trying to be original.”

His words were extremely poisonous and decisive.

Just when Yang Wei was feeling proud of his feisty reply, the response from the other side nearly caused him to weep. .

“This arrogant brat dares to act so rudely in front of me. For intruding on my daughter’s cottage, prepare to die.”
