The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 157: Su Jinhai Find Out

"If you are curious, you can ask Young Miss. If Young Miss tell you, it is fine. But if she did not want to answer, you just need to ignore it. After all, she is our Master." Xiao Li stated.

"Hmm... I know." Yu Xiaohui nodded.

Bai Xifeng was a person who stretched out her hand to help her. There was no way that she could do something to that person. She was not an ungrateful person.

Bai Xifeng woke up after sleeping for about 6 hours. She was feeling out of her body. Probably after the ordeal. She thought of waking up in a messy condition. She was quite surprised when she was in the clean clothes.

She remembered that she was in a complete mess where the blood was everywhere. She tried to stand up. She growled as she felt very tired.

Then, she was suddenly being hugged by someone. That person cried.

"Young Miss... Thank goddess that you are awake." Xiao Li cried.

Bai Xifeng just smiled and patted Xiao Li’s back. She also could see Yu’s Siblings standing over there with a relieved expression on their faces.

"What happened after I passed out?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Master, we are sorry for against your order. We had disturbed you." Yu Nianzu kneeled. Followed by Yu Xiaohui, Yu Xiaoqing and Xiao Li who had already released Bai Xifeng from her hug.

"Huh?" Bai Xifeng could not understand.

"After you passed out, we went inside to see you being unconscious. So, we tried to get to your side." Yu Xiaohui stated.

"Then, who is the one who breaks the array?" Bai Xifeng asked. She remembered setting up an array to prevent anyone from disturbing her.

"Me." Xiao Li answered in a slow voice while looking down.

"What? You?" Xiao Li was surprised.

She did not expect Xiao Li already could break the array that she set up. Meaning Xiao Li is in a good process of becoming a Master Array.

"Good job. I assume you clean me up. Thank you." Bai Xifeng stated.

The four of them were dumbfounded when they saw that Bai Xifeng did not get angry with them.

"What? Why are you like this?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"We thought we would be scolded because we went against your order." Yu Nianzu said.

"Oh... I was in an important process yesterday. If I get disturbed during the process, I might need to repeat the process. However, you entered the room after the process ended. So, there is no need for me to get angry with you guys." Bai Xifeng explained.

Her subordinates felt relieved again.

"By the way, can you get some food for you? I think I am starving." Bai Xifeng said while rubbing her hand.

"I will go get some food." Xiao Li nodded and rushed out of the room.

Then, people in Shen Manor got the news that Bai Xifeng finally woke up. Master Shen, Shen Shoushan and Su Jinhai came to meet her. Yes, Su Jinhai was still here. He did not leave.

"Sir Long, are you okay?" Shen Shoushan asked.

"Hmm... I am fine." Bai Xifeng answered.

"What happened yesterday?" Master Shen asked.

"Well..." Bai Xifeng reluctantly told Master Shen about this since she did not want many people to know her condition.

Seeing this, Master Shen understood. "It’s okay. No need to tell me."

"Thank you." Bai Xifeng said. She was glad that Master Shen got the message.

After talking for a while, Shen Shoushan and Master Shen left leaving Su Jinhai with Bai Xifeng.

Bai Xifeng tilted her head seeing Su Jinhai who did not leave together with Master Shen and Shen Shoushan.

"Sir Long... Or should I call you Lady Long?" Su Jinhai said.

Bai Xifeng was immediately put on guard. She looked at Su Jinhai like he was her enemy. Her subordinates were also doing the same.

"How do you know about that?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Calm down. I will never tell anyone about that. I found out when I checked your condition yesterday." Su Jinhai stated.

Her subordinates’ faces became pale. They knew it was their fault for letting Su Jinhai read Bai Xifeng’s pulse.

"Like I said earlier... I don’t have any intention to tell anyone. However, I have another thing to ask you." Su Jinhai said.

"What is it?" Bai Xifeng asked back.

"Why does your body have a poison seal?" Su Jinhai threw the question.

Yes, Bai Xifeng had a poison seal. Baishe told her so. If she wanted to become stronger, she needed to break the seal by taking the antidote.

Since Su Jinhai found out about that, there was no need for her to hide the fact anymore.

"It is true that my body has a poison seal. However, I don’t know why I have it in the first place." Bai Xifeng stated.

"You don’t know?" Su Jinhai was surprised.

"Hmm... Probably someone placed the seal when I was still a baby." Bai Xifeng said.

"Only someone in the Immortal Realm could do something like this. Do you know anyone in Immortal Realm?" Su Jinhai asked.

"No... I don’t." Bai Xifeng shook her head.

"I see..." Su Jinhai sighed. "I assume you are also breaking the fifth seal."

"Yes. I did yesterday." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"You will have to suffer more pain than yesterday." Su Jinhai stated.

"No pain no gain." Bai Xifeng replied.

"I see. You are determined." Su Jinhai admired Bai Xifeng’s courage.

"How do you see anyone with the same condition as mine?" Bai Xifeng asked.

It seemed Su Jinhai knew a lot about the poison seal. She could learn something from him.

"Hmm... I do." Su Jinhai nodded.

"You do? How is that person right now?" Bai Xifeng asked excitedly.

"She is dead." Su Jinhai stated with a sad tone.

"Huh? I am sorry to hear that." Bai Xifeng did not expect that. She quickly apologized.

"Well, she could not hold the pain during the process... So, she killed her life to end the pain." Su Jinhai gritted his teeth while telling Bai Xifeng about that.

Su Jinhai still could not forget about the scene. That person was his mother. Someone coveted his mother after his father died.

However, his mother did not want to be with that person. That person was angry. So, he placed the poison seal on his mother.

He wanted to release his mother from the pain. He went to see his master who taught him to be a pharmacist. He begged his master to refine the elixir for his mother.

His master agreed to help him. The process went well. Until, that day. Her mother was in the process of breaking the fifth seal. However, his mother could not hold back and killed herself to free herself from the pain.

He cried many days after learning that. He regretted wanting to break his mother’s poison seal. If he did not do it, his mother was still alive. Even though she could not cultivate.

Bai Xifeng understood his mother’s feelings. The pain was indeed very strong. Even she was thinking of ending her life she gritted her teeth and held back until the end.

"Sir Su, I hope you don’t tell anyone about my condition." Bai Xifeng stated.

"I understand. Don’t worry about that." Su Jinhai smiled.

....

Bai Xifeng went to meet Ren Liqiu after that. Ren Liqiu recovered pretty well. Next month, she could continue her cultivation again.

Then, Bai Xifeng requested to see Master Shen. Master Shen was surprised when he was told by Bai Xifeng that she was leaving.

Bai Xifeng took a sum of money and gave it to Master Shen. The money was for Shen Manor’s hospitality and the cost of destroying one of the courtyards.

To repair it, Shen Manor needed the money. Master Shen wanted to reject it since Bai Xifeng already saved his daughter-in-law.

Bai Xifeng told Master Shen that she already received a payment for that job. So, there was no need for Master Shen to reject this money anymore.

In the end, Master Shen received the money from Bai Xifeng. Master Shen asked her when would she leaving. Bai Xifeng told him that they would be leaving at night.

Master Shen knew that he would not stop Bai Xifeng. He arranged a carriage and some supplies for Bai Xifeng and her people.

Bai Xifeng did not reject Master Shen’s kindness this time and accepted the things.
