2998 Purpose

As Feng Jiu walked out the door, Leng Shuang followed behind with the baby in her arms. Leng Hua, Leng Hua, who was a half-step behind, told Elder Mei, “There is food in the kitchen, if you are hungry, go to the kitchen to have a look!” And with that, he left as well.

When Elder Mei watched them leave, he rubbed his bald head, lowered his head to look at himself and with his hand extended to perform a purification technique on himself, his whole appearance changed beyond recognition.

He stroked his beard and smiled, then headed for the kitchen to see what he could eat to fill his stomach.

Those who cultivated this way did not seem to care if they ate or not. He had lost track of the number of years he had been abstaining from food. Immortal cultivators only ate to satisfy their craving for tasty food. Of course, spirit rice or beast meat was a different story.

When he considered what Feng Jiu had just said to him, he couldn’t help but wonder: Did she know? Is that why she entrusted him with such a responsibility?

Meanwhile, Feng Jiu returned to the courtyard and both Leng Shuang and Leng Hua arrived there as well. When they entered the room, they exchanged glances and asked, “Does Master know Elder Mei’s origin?”

She sat in the room, poured herself a glass of water, and drank it. “I don’t know his origin, but I think I have a vague idea about him,” she said with a smile.

“He behaved differently toward Little Master,” Leng Hua thought about it and told others what he observed.

“Mm. It’s because he is here for Little Hao’er.” Feng Jiu said while fiddling with a teacup.

“If my guess is correct, he should be familiar with Little Hao’er’s life experience. It was for Little Hao’er that he came to me.”

“Master, don’t you have to be on your guard against him? He is incredibly powerful. What if he kidnaps Little Master?” Leng Shuang couldn’t help but be worried.

Feng Jiu shook her head and chuckled. “He will not. Based on the circumstances at the time Little Hao’er was picked up, I believe Little Hao’er’s parents were in a bad situation. He’d rather stay here and protect Little Hao’er than take him back to face the danger.”

“Don’t worry! He’s not going to take Little Hao’er away, at least not right now. What’s more, he is very strong. With him here keeping watch, I don’t have to worry about the manor while I’m away. You don’t have to stop him from contacting Little Hao’er when I’m not at home. Allow him to hold him and teach him if he wants to. This is only beneficial to Hao’er.”

When they heard this, they nodded and said, “Yes.”

Even though his concern was addressed, Leng Hua was still worried. He asked, “Master, Elder Mei didn’t admit it. If he didn’t come for Little Master but had another reason, then…”

“I know what’s making you worry. ” Feng Jiu chuckled, glanced at both of them and said with a smile, “But what you don’t know is that I let Fire Phoenix watch over Leng Shuang’s courtyard. Although Elder Mei didn’t show it during the day and he hadn’t done anything wrong since he arrived at the manor these few days, he did sneak into Leng Shuang’s courtyard one night to see Hao’er.”

Leng Shuang was taken aback when he heard this. Elder Mei sneaked into her courtyard? She was completely unaware of it.

“Master, Leng Shuang was careless.” She had a twinge of guilt. It would be too late if there was an accident.

Feng Jiu smiled. “His strength surpasses mine, and it is easy for him to enter your courtyard. You won’t be able to find him despite your vigilance, so don’t blame yourself.”
