Demon Wang's Golden Favorite Fei

Chapter 179 (Part 1) The trip to Penglai Island

As soon as he entered and saw Feng Qi Qi’s red swollen eyes, Feng Cang immediately came to her side. “Qing Qing, are you alright?!”

Seeing Feng Cang again and thinking about her ‘poor’ attitude towards him, Feng Qi Qi was a bit embarrassed. “I’m sorry…”

“I’m sorry…”

They didn’t expect that they would both apologize to the other at the same time. Feng Qi Qi didn’t say anything else and looked at Feng Cang. After a long while, she laughed. “You know that when a woman is pregnant, her temper would get worse? Just now, I shouldn’t have been angry with you. I’m sorry!”

Compared to the ‘tigeress’ image of just now, Feng Qi Qi was so gentle now, making Feng Cang relieve his uneasiness. “I should be the one to apologize! Jin Mo had long told me to be honest with you, but I was worried about too many things. I didn’t tell you and let you be worried!”

“It’s alright! Everything is over now! Don’t mention it again!”

Feng Qi Qi took the initiative to kiss Feng Cang’s face. “After we arrive at Penglai Island, all these problems wouldn’t be problems anymore! I believe that we will be fine! Add oil!”

• Add oil: to make extra efforts/ fighting

“Mm! Add oil!” Feng Qi Qi’s fighting spirits influenced Feng Cang. The two had experienced so many things, but still insisted and believed in a better future. Now, what are these difficulties in comparison?!

The ship sailed for half a month at sea. Fortunately, there was Jia Lan. Every time there was a storm, they were able to avoid it.

Jia Lan was very curious about the grudge between Feng Qi Qi and Misha. Feng Qi Qi briefly told him about reincarnation. She didn’t expect that Jia Lan had done some research on reincarnation. He didn’t think that this was anything odd. Only then did Feng Qi Qi learn that Penglai Island advocated reincarnation and believed that people had a past and future life.

After knowing that Feng Qi Qi had let Misha go in the end, Jia Lan bowed deeply to Feng Qi Qi. The misunderstanding he had for Feng Qi Qi was also resolved.

After spending twenty-eight days at sea, they finally saw an island in the distance covered by a dense fog. Surrounded by clouds, the island looked like a fairyland on the sea. When they got closer, the people saw that it was a verdant place. There were fields all over the island. There was nothing that was not fresh and natural.

The ship reached the shore. There was a small ferry. When the ship stopped at the dock, Jia Lan made an appearance. Immediately, several young boys waved at Jia Lan. “Third senior brother, you’re back!”

“Third senior brother, third senior brother!”

After seeing Jia Lan’s popularity, Feng Qi Qi smiled slightly. She hoped that he could help and communicate a bit in front of Master Taixu. Recently, the residual effects of the gu were more vicious. On several occasions, while they were eating, Feng Cang’s hands would tremble so much that he couldn’t pick up the dishes. Feng Cang was such a proud and strong-minded person. Now, he was being tortured by the pain of the illness. Whenever she saw Feng Cang pretending to smile, it made Feng Qi Qi wish that she could bear the pain for him.

“Third senior brother, who are they?”

After Feng Qi Qi, Feng Cang and the others left the boat, the youngsters were very surprised when they saw that they were not from Penglai Island. Especially when they saw Feng Qi Qi’s and Feng Cang’s appearance. They couldn’t help but compare them to the seniors of the island. They discovered that no one’s appearance could look better than these two people. They became increasingly curious about their identities.

“Third senior brother, did you bring a gift for me?” A youngster smilingly walked towards Jia Lan and held his (JL) arm. “We all missed you so much.”

“This…” Jia Lan was slow to react after the youngster mentioned gifts. This time, he had been ‘kidnapped’ to this place by Feng Qi Qi. When did he have the time to prepare gifts?!

Just when Jia Lan was about to say no, Feng Qi Qi laughingly said, “Your senior brother has been thinking about you all the time. He’s prepared many gifts. They’re all in the cabin!”

When the youngsters heard that there were gifts, everyone shouted, “Thank you senior brother.” Everyone went on the deck and rushed to the cabin.

“Little monkeys!” When Jia Lan looked at the youngsters, his gaze was particularly gentle. After they went on the boat, Jia Lan thanked Feng Qi Qi. “Thank you!”

“You’re welcome! I hope they would like it!”

Before Feng Qi Qi came, she let people prepare gifts. It was nothing more than a few specialities of the mainland such as snacks, handiworks and so on. They had come here to ask for help. They should also bribe them a little.

After a while, the youngsters rushed off the boat while carrying boxes. “Senior brother, the gifts are not bad, ah! I really like them!” One youngster held a glass bead against the sun and looked at it. The others also thanked Jia Lan. They carried the three boxes full of gifts to the island.

“Senior brother, we will distribute the gifts first! We will wait to have dinner with you tonight!”

After the youngsters left, Jia Lan led Feng Cang and his group to the island. Along the way, Jia Lan acted like a host and introduced everything to Feng Cang and Feng Qi Qi.

It turned out that this Penglai Island was nothing more than an ordinary island. It wasn’t as brilliant as the rumors of the mainland made it seem. On the island, the residents were like the commoners of the mainland. They lived a simple life. This was a country without heavy taxes and had no emperor. The one who had the highest authority at Penglai Island was the master Jia Lan had mentioned…Master Taixu.

After the people of Penglai Island turned ten, they would be sent to the only Nuwa temple on the island for spiritual practice. When they reached twenty, the excellent disciples would be asked to stay. The others would return home.

• Nuwa: the mother goddess in Chinese mythology, creator of humans

Master Taixu had five great disciples. Jia Lan was the third one and was called third senior brother by the others.

Each year, new disciples were constantly being introduced. Most of them were taught martial arts by these five great disciples. So, not only were they seniors, but they’re also masters. Those youngsters of just now had been studying under Jia Lan’s tutoring.

Nuwa temple was located on the highest mountain of the island. Because Feng Qi Qi was pregnant, they stopped a few times on the road. When they arrived at Nuwa temple, it was already evening.

They had just entered the temple when they heard the sound of the bell. The tone was long and spread throughout the entire island.

“The people on the island judge the time based on our bell. Now, it’s time to go home from work and have dinner!”

Jia Lan took Feng Cang and the others to the guest area in the temple. They hadn’t arrived yet when a group of boys and girls came to them. They hadn’t seen people from outside the island before. So, they gathered not too far away and curiously looked at these ‘foreigners’. Occasionally, their whispering voices spread over. It was nothing more than comments about Feng Qi Qi’s and Feng Cang’s appearance.

“Are all the people of the mainland so beautiful?”

“I don’t know. It should be! Why do you think third senior brother brought them here for?”

“I don’t know…”

The performance of the youngsters made Jia Lan a bit embarrassed. He could only turn and explain to Feng Cang. “It had been a long time since Penglai Island has received guests. The children see it as a fresh experience.”

“No problem.” Feng Cang didn’t feel disgusted by those innocent boys and girls. Just now, when they’d walked past, those adults also looked at them like this. However, there were no maliciousness in their eyes. They only felt curiosity.

“Third senior brother, why did you only come back now?!”

At this time, a red wind rushed over and slammed into Jia Lan’s arms, causing him to almost fall. Then, a sweet “Third senior brother!” reached everyone’s ears.

“Third senior brother, you’ve returned!” A little round face came out of Jia Lan’s arms. It turned out that it was a girl of about five years old. Her hair was tied in pigtails. Her cheeks were red like an apple. The only shortcoming was that Xiao Mi’s upper lip was split open up to her nose. This cute girl actually had cleft lips. Because of that, she couldn’t speak so clearly due to the air leakage.

“Third senior brother, I missed you so much!”

“Xiao Mi, you’ve got more meat on you now!” Even though he said that, he still carried Xiao Mi easily. Hearing Jia Lan say that she’d gained weight, Xiao Mi pouted. “Third senior brother doesn’t like fat girls? However, Xiao Mi is fat like this, what to do? Doesn’t third senior brother like Xiao Mi anymore?”

The voice just fell when the little girl’s eyes were covered in a layer of tears as though she would cry if Jia Lan said no.

“How will that happen?! I like Xiao Mi, no matter how you look!”

“Third senior brother is the best!” Xiao Mi kissed Jia Lan’s face. Then, she looked curiously at Feng Qi Qi. “This big sister is so beautiful! Just like goddess Nuwa, she has a red mole on her forehead.”

Xiao Mi was very cute. Plus, her cleft lips made Feng Qi Qi feel more sympathetic towards this little girl. “Thank you, sweetie!” In Feng Qi Qi’s hand appeared a rabbit made from pearls. The eyes of the rabbit were made from red agate. A little girl like Xiao Mi naturally liked cute little animals. This pearly rabbit looked full of vividness. That pair of red eyes was very beautiful, making Xiao Mi love it very much.

“Sweetie’s words are so sweet. This little rabbit is a gift for sweetie!”

When Feng Qi Qi handed the pearly rabbit to Xiao Mi, Xiao Mi looked inquiringly at Jia Lan and waited for Jia Lan to nod.

“Thank you big sister…” The moment Jia Lan nodded, Xiao Mi jumped down and took the pearly rabbit. She smiled sweetly towards Feng Qi Qi. “Thank you, big sister! Beautiful big sister is the best! I like you the most!”

When Feng Qi Qi didn’t pay attention, Xiao Mi quickly kissed Feng Qi Qi’s cheek. Then, she laughed.

The child was so innocent and lively, making people like her a lot. However, her cleft lips was very regrettable…

“Xiao Mi, did Master came out of seclusion?”

Hearing Jia Lan ask this, Feng Qi Qi realised that Xiao Mi was Master Taixu’s granddaughter.

“Grandpa has long come out! However, eldest senior brother, second senior brother and you weren’t here. Grandpa has asked many times where you went, but I didn’t betray you!”

“Mm, Xiao Mi is the best!” Jia Lan carried Xiao Mi and went into the guest area with Feng Qi Qi and prepared more rooms for them.

“I will go see Master first. I will come back later to invite you!”

“Thanks…”

After leaving the room, Jia Lan carried Xiao Mi and went to Master Taixu. This was a quiet courtyard. Jia Lan pushed the wooden door open and went in. He saw a grey-haired old man watering the vegetables in the garden of the yard.

“Master, I’m back!”

“Mm, you know how to come back? A group of wild monkeys!” Mater Taixu watered the plant. He didn’t turn his head. Xiao Mi broke free from Jia Lan’s arms and jumped to Master Taixu and showed off her pearly rabbit.

“Grandpa, look, look. Isn’t little rabbit cute?”

“Cute!” Although in front of Jia Lan, Master Taixu was a severe mentor, but in front of his little granddaughter, he was a very kind and very benevolent old man. “Xiao Mi, who gave it to you?”

“A very beautiful big sister! Right, grandpa, that big sister looks like goddess Nuwa. It is the first time that Xiao Mi saw such a beautiful person!”

Xiao Mi’s words made Master Taixu frown a bit. Then, his big hand touched Xiao Mi’s head. “Xiao Mi, go see if uncle Niu has finished preparing dinner! We will have dinner shortly!”

“Mm, mm! Dinner!”

After Xiao Mi left, Master Taixu’s expression immediately changed. “Jia Lan, you brought strangers to the island? Could it be that you don’t know the rules?”

Chapter 179 (Part 2) The trip to Penglai Island

“Master, this disciple is wrong!” Jia Lan knelt. Penglai Island generally didn’t accept outsiders, especially strangers. Jia Lan had completely broken the rules.

“What is going on? Speak…”

Master Taixu didn’t have the intention of allowing Jia Lan to stand up. Jia Lan told everything while kneeling. After hearing Feng Cang’s identity, Master Taixu frowned. “Are you sure he has the Forget Love?”

“Yes, master. He’s already showing the symptoms of Forget Love. Master, Feng Cang’s maternal grandmother Jun Lan Mei was also a disciple of Penglai Island. Besides, the Forget Love in his body was probably done by our own people. This disciple feels that this can’t be separated from Penglai Island. It is reasonable to cure the poison for him. So, I brought him here.”

“Get up!” Hearing Jun Lan Mei’s name, Master Taixu was a bit surprised. His expression was a little weird. However, the expression appeared too fast. So quick that Jia Lan couldn’t capture it.

“Invite them over later! Let this Master take a look at that Feng Cang! Don’t let others come. I will only see Feng Cang and his wife.”

Hearing Master Taixu’s words, it seemed that he’d approved his (JL) actions. He immediately bowed to Master Taixu. “Thank you, master! Thank you!”

“You, ah…” Seeing Jia Lan like this, Master Taixu shook his head. “You worry the most about affairs that are not related to you and also like peace the most…Really don’t know if such a personality is good or bad.”

“Of course, it’s good! Master, I will go invite them!”

After arriving at the guest room, Jia Lan mentioned the words of Master Taixu. Feng Qi Qi held Feng Cang’s hand. Her eyes showed excitement. “There is hope! Cang, you can be saved!”

Everyone could understand Feng Qi Qi’s excitement.

During this period of time, the trembling of Feng Cang’s hand became longer and longer. Every time it happened, it was during dinner. Feng Cang feared that he would affect the others from having dinner, so he ate inside the room. Feng Qi Qi would accompany Feng Cang at this time and would personally feed him. Only after he had eaten would she eat. The love between this couple left everyone very moved. They also hoped that the poison on Feng Cang’s body could be cured sooner.

Feng Cang held Feng Qi Qi’s hand and walked behind Jia Lan. Master Taixu pointed out that he would only see the two of them. The others stayed in the guest room. Jia Lan asked Jin Yu to take care of Jin Mo and the others. He led Feng Cang and Feng Qi Qi to the back of the mountain.

They were halfway there when Feng Qi Qi suddenly spoke, “Jia Lan, thank you.”

“You’re welcome!” Jia Lan turned his head and smiled. “You don’t look like a bad person. Moreover, doesn’t my body still have your poison? If I don’t bring you here, then you wouldn’t give me the antidote.”

Hearing Jia Lan mention poison, Feng Qi Qi laughed. “You really believed that I poisoned you? It’s already been so long. Have you felt sick? Those were just two beauty pills. I let you and Jin Yu be my guinea pigs! You really thought that I poisoned you. I’m not so bad.”

Only now did Jia Lan know that the so called ‘Free and Unfettered’ pill was fake. The antidote that was needed every month was also fake. He had fallen into this woman’s trap. Jia Lan relaxed after knowing that he wasn’t poisoned. “Then I should thank you even more!”

Feng Cang maintained a smile. His fingers trembled slightly. Feng Qi Qi sensed that Feng Cang’s illness was beginning to break out. She turned her hand and tightly held Feng Cang’s hand. Suddenly, Feng Qi Qi changed the subject to Xiao Mi. “Jia Lan, do you have a way to cure Xiao Mi’s cleft lips?”

“Cleft lips?” It was the first time Jia Lan heard of this. “There are many children on the island who have this. Master thought of many ways, but he couldn’t cure it.”

Only after hearing Jia Lan say that, did she remember that some of the youngster she had seen before also had cleft lips. It was just, theirs weren’t as obvious. “Jia Lan, cleft lips can be cured!”

“Really?” Jia Lan fiercely turned around and almost bumped into Feng Qi Qi’s belly. He quickly took a step back, but his eyes showed anxiousness. “Princess, what you said is true? Could the cleft lips really be cured?”

Jia Lan remembered that Feng Qi Qi was a doctor. She must have a reason for saying this. Thinking till here, Jia Lan was very excited. “Princess, if you can cure everyone’s cleft lips, I believe that master will certainly cure wangye!”¹

Feng Qi Qi also thought of this. After seeing Xiao Mi’s cleft lips, Feng Qi Qi had been thinking about curing her. Firstly, it was to increase her bargaining chips to let Master Taixu cure Feng Cang’s poison. The other reason was because Xiao Mi was really cute. Such an innocent person had to suffer from cleft lips. This was something very distressing.

“I have a way to cure the cleft lips!”

“So great! Quickly, let’s go tell master!”

After Jia Lan told Master Taixu that Feng Qi Qi could cure cleft lips, this old man stood up and strode to Feng Qi Qi. “Girl, are you telling the truth? You really can cure the cleft lips?”

“Elder, why would I lie to you?! Not only can I cure the cleft lips, I also know how to prevent it to avoid pregnant women giving birth to babies! If you trust me, I can give it a try!”

“Good! Good!” Master Taixu walked back and forth from excitement. “Our Penglai Island has about nine hundred people. There are 231 that have the cleft lips. Half of them are children. Girl, if you really can cure the cleft lips, you’re the benefactor of our Penglai Island. No matter what you ask, I will promise you!”

“Elder, don’t say this. I also came to seek medical treatment for my husband.” Feng Qi Qi helped Feng Cang to let Master Taixu look at Feng Cang’s hand.

“How could this be” Seeing Feng Cang’s situation, Master Taixu quickly let him sit and personally checked Feng Cang’s pulse.

“There’s still a kind of residual poison in your body. So, it speeded up the Forget Love. I can only cure Forget Love’s poison. I can’t do anything about the other.”

It was already good news that Master Taixu was willing to cure Feng Cang’s poison. The gu poison was something that Nan Feng’s Qiang tribe were the best at. They could only go look for them.

“Thank you! I’m already very happy that you’re willing to cure me.” Knowing that Forget Love could be cured, Feng Cang was happier than anyone. The only thing that he was afraid of now was that he would forget Feng Qi Qi and forget everything about them. This was something Feng Cang couldn’t accept.

“It’s just, it needs time to cure the poison. Besides, it’s very painful. I don’t know if you…”

“I can bear anything! It doesn’t matter!” Not waiting for Master Taixu to finish speaking, Feng Cang answered him firmly. Compared to forgetting Feng Qi Qi, what was the pain of curing the poison?!

“That’s good!” Master Taixu stroked his beard and nodded. “Today, go have dinner and rest earlier. Tomorrow, I will take you to the river of forgetfulness.”

The next day, Master Taixu and Jia Lan took Feng Cang and Feng Qi Qi to the river of forgetfulness.

The so-called river of forgetfulness is a waterfall behind the mountains. The water of the river was brazenly hot. There were yellow bubbles on the surface of the water. At the edge of the cliff, the water poured directly into the deep pool. The entire river of forgetfulness exuded a stench. They hadn’t approached yet, when that stench spread over.

“Ou…” Feng Qi Qi was pregnant. When smelling such an odor, her stomach would turn. She almost vomited all the things she ate in the morning.

“Qing Qing, wait for me here. I will go with them!” Seeing Feng Qi Qi’s face, Feng Cang’s heart felt pain. He insisted on letting Feng Qi Qi stay here. He followed Master Taixu and Jia Lan to the river of forgetfulness.

“Forget Love is distilled from the river of forgetfulness. You got the Forget Love when you were in your mother’s womb. This poison had already penetrated deep in your bone marrow. To get rid of the Forget Love, we could only attack poison with poison. It was just, the temperature of the water of this river of forgetfulness is very high. Moreover, the difference of the temperature during the day and at night is very big. It was generally difficult to persevere. You have been poisoned for a long time. To get rid of the Forget Love in you, you must stay in the pool under the waterfall for eighty-one days.

“Eighty-one days? Isn’t that two and a half months?” Feng Cang turned and looked at Feng Qi Qi who was not far away. He was somewhat unwilling to be parted with her for so long, but when he thought about that if he didn’t cure the poison, he would forget Feng Qi Qi, Feng Cang still nodded resolutely. “Good! I promise you! However, can I go have a talk with my wife? She’s pregnant. I’m afraid that she would worry!”

“Alright!” Master Taixu nodded. His gaze followed Feng Cang who went to Feng Qi Qi.

When he saw Feng Cang’s appearance, the elder had been recalling that woman in his memories…Jun Lan Mei. Speaking of it, Jun Lan Mei was his junior sister. That year, if it wasn’t because Jun Lan Mei was selected, sent to Dong Lu and became the empress, they might have had a new beginning…

Lan Mei, I would take good care of your grandson.

When Feng Cang came back, Master Taixu smiled at him. “You made it clear to her? Don’t worry, I will let Jia Lan bring you food every day! Eighty-one days would pass quickly. By then, after getting rid of the fetal poison, you wouldn’t be bothered by the Forget Love again!”

“Thank you!”

Feng Cang didn’t wait for Master Taixu to say anything else. he jumped from the waterfall and dived into the deep pool.

“Hey, I haven’t finish speaking! Such an impatient brat!” Master Taixu looked down. He saw the splash of water. Feng Cang emerged from the middle. After seeing that he was fine, did Master Taixu ease down.

“Don’t use your inner energy, otherwise malicious energy would attack your heart! Just sit inside the water like how you usually play in water!”

When Master Taixu’s voice spread from the top of the mountain, Feng Cang did as he said. He found a sunken place and sat cross-legged. Apart from his head, his whole body was hidden in the water of the river of forgetfulness.

Just now, when he was on the top of the mountain, the water had an unusual smell. He didn’t expect that inside the pool, the strange smell was even more intense. The temperature of the water was a bit hot. The water was still buzzing and making small bubbles like a pot of porridge.

“Girl, don’t worry. He would fine! This brat is not bad!” When he went back, Master Taixu couldn’t help but praise Feng Cang. He utterly fearlessly jumped from the waterfall and was able to bear the water of the river of forgetfulness were really amazing things.

“It seems that he really cares about you! Your choice of husband is not bad!”

Feng Qi Qi was very worried about Feng Cang. After hearing Master Taixu’s praise of Feng Cang, her worry lessened a bit. Feng Cang was working hard. She should also work hard! She believed that eighty-one days would pass soon!

The people of the island were very happy that the holy doctor from the mainland could cure cleft lips. They came to the Nuwa temple to see the demeanor of the holy doctor.

When everyone saw that the holy doctor was a petite and pregnant woman, they were more surprised. “Holy doctor is so pretty and beautiful like Nuwa goddess!” “Yes! I didn’t expect that the holy doctor is a woman!”

Had to say, the people of Penglai Island were very simple and honest. Master Taixu said that Feng Qi Qi could cure cleft lips, they believed that Feng Qi Qi could certainly do it and didn’t doubt her the slightest.

Feng Qi Qi examined those people with cleft lips and carefully recorded their names, age and physical condition.

There were more than two hundred people on Penglai Island that had cleft lips. Had to say, it was a very large number. Fortunately, there was Su Mei’s, Su Yue’s and Jin Mo’s help. So, Feng Qi Qi didn’t feel so tired.

After recording the conditions of these patients, Feng Qi Qi split them in three types. One type was the slight one. The second type was the medium one. The third time was the heaviest one. She intended to cure them in three batches.

After a busy day, Feng Qi Qi sweated from being tired.

“Girl, how is it?” Master Taixu had came over several times. Seeing that Feng Qi Qi was busy, he didn’t bother her. Now, that she finished, he let the disciples brought dinner over. He came to Feng Qi Qi. “Don’t feel so anxious to finish. You’re pregnant! Your body is the most important!”

Hearing the concern in Master Taixu’s words, Feng Qi Qi smiled happily. “Thank you, elder! Today, I only recorded the conditions of the patients. The surgery still has to wait for a few days. I need some tools for the surgery.”

Feng Qi Qi took out her own paintings of needles, scalpels, gloves, cleaning clothes, etc and gave the paintings to Master Taixu. “I have to trouble elder to prepare these for me. I will take a stroll on the island these two days to see what caused so many people on the island to have cleft lips. By then, I will come up with a cure.”

“Good, good! I will immediately let people go prepare. Really thank you so much!”

Master Taixu was very excited. These cleft lips had been a big problem of Penglai Island. There were many residents of the island who had cleft lips. This problem had continued for many generations and hadn’t been resolved. Now, Feng Qi Qi could cure the cleft lips. This was simply a great help to Penglai Island.

The next few days, Feng Qi Qi under Jia Lan’s company strolled around the entire Penglai Island. Along the way, she saw many innocent children smile at her with cleft lips. Feng Qi Qi felt the heavy responsibility on her shoulders even more.

“I think I know the cause of the cleft lips!” On the third evening, after returning to Nuwa temple, Feng Qi Qi told the result she got to Master Taixu.
