Chapter 196 . 1: Dragon and Phoenix Meat



Bai Luoqing of course expressed disdain in response to Feng Wu’s arrogant words . “I’m Bai Luoqing, the Head of the Bai family . Do you think you’d be able to stand the consequences of offending me?”

“Pfff!” Feng Wu couldn’t help but burst out laughing . This was the Head of the Bai family?

The mockery in her laughter was clear . A trace of anger flashed across Bai Luoqing’s face and she opened her hand slightly and attacked!

Feng Wu gave a cold laugh and met the attack without fear . The two soon got into a tangle and took their battle to the courtyard outside . Bai Feiyun didn’t bother to try and mediate between them . With a ‘bang,’ he closed the door .

Then he went back inside and sat down . Sounds of ‘boom’s and ‘bang’s came from outside . After a while, Cang Baicao couldn’t take it anymore and went outside to yell at the two . Only then did the sounds of combat gradually become more distant until they couldn’t be made out anymore .

Bai Feiyun was pretty sure that they would soon be arrested by the executive corps and dragged back to the City Lord Residence and gave a light laugh . He was just about to turn back to look at the person on the bed when he felt that something was off . He glanced over again and his glance met with those familiar, bright eyes .

“You’re awake?” Bai Feiyun cried out in pleasant surprise .

Tang Doudou tugged out a trace of a smile and said weakly, “I was awake since earlier . ”
She was pointing to the time when Bai Luoqing and Feng Wu started arguing . She had been woken up by the disturbance .

Bai Feiyun blamed himself . “I just knew that I shouldn’t have let them in . ”

“It’s fine . If I kept sleeping, I probably would’ve slept to my death!” Tang Doudou closed her eyes for a moment before opening them again . “How am I now?”

“Your recovery is going pretty well . You’ll be fine after another half a month of rest, don’t worry . ” Bai Feiyun got up to pour some water for her . “You’re probably hungry, right? I’ll have someone simmer some congee for you in a bit . ”

“I’m not hungry . I just want to drink a bit of water . ” Even if she was hungry, she didn’t dare to eat . Bai Feiyun and the others didn’t know the general knowledge in regards to this area, but she knew it well . Accumulation of food in the stomach easily caused fever, so it was best to endure it for a while .

After a fever, it’s best not to eat solid food for a while and give the stomach a rest, so as not to cause inflammation and the onset of another fever . It’s also best to drink lots of fluids to avoid dehydration . But… this isn’t common knowledge . At least I didn’t know about it .

When Bai Feiyun heard that she was thirsty, he carefully supported her up and fed her water until she shook her head to indicate that it was enough . Tang Doudou looked at Bai Feiyun’s swollen eyes – people who didn’t know the situation would have thought he had cried – and said, “You should go rest . I’ll be fine . ”

“Whether you’re fine or not is not up for you to decide . If you don’t want to sleep, then we can just talk . ” Bai Feiyun put the cup down and helped her lie back down before tucking in the blankets . “Did you see who it was that injured you back then?”

“Nangong Yan . ” That woman was probably too conceited and thought that she would definitely die, hence why she would openly announce her name without fear that Tang Doudou would send someone after her for revenge .

Or perhaps it was that she was not afraid of people taking revenge!

Also it was unknown who exactly her Senior Brother was! Tang Doudou swore that when she found out, she definitely wouldn’t let that person off!



“Nangong Yan?” Bai Feiyun knitted his brows .

Tang Doudou looked up at him, surprised . “What is it? Do you know her?”

However, she saw Bai Feiyun shake his head . “It just sounds familiar, but I can’t quite place it . ”

Tang Doudou retrieved her line of sight, a bit disappointed . Who knew where she came from if even someone like Bai Feiyun had barely heard of her .

When Bai Feiyun saw her disappointment, he consoled her . “The City Lord has already gone to investigate this matter . With this clue from you, the perpetrator will probably be found very soon . You should just focus on recuperating without worries!”

As of right now, that was all she can do!

Although she really wanted to find the perpetrator as soon as possible, as she was right now, there was no point in talking about finding the perpetrator since she probably couldn’t even walk steadily .

“The person earlier was the Head of your Bai family?” After laying there a while, Tang Doudou still couldn’t fall asleep so she opened her eyes again .

“She is the Head of the Bai family, but not ours,” explained Bai Feiyun in a gentle voice .

It made her suddenly recall Gu Xun . “You also have a younger brother?”

“En, in Mist City . ”

It became quiet again . Tang Doudou didn’t know what she should say, and Bai Feiyun also wasn’t very talkative . The two pretty much had no topics of conversation except for necessary matters .

Perhaps feeling that this silence was way too awkward, Bai Feiyun pressed his lips together, then asked, “That time when you rushed back to the Alliance Head Residence, what did you want me to look at?”

Had he not brought it up Tang Doudou would have forgotten about the entire matter . A trace of joy flashed through her eyes but soon dimmed again . If the demonic bug heart had been effective, Shen Moru would have been able to see that the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance was no longer there and she wouldn’t have the so-called poison blood . Meaning, she probably would’ve already been killed .

Even now she still couldn’t really tell if this was good or bad fortune . Perhaps it was just a combination!

Since this matter involved Jun Xin and she already knew the results of it, she had no plans to tell Bai Feiyun about it . It wasn’t that she was suspicious of Bai Feiyun, but just that she had a faint feeling that it’d be best if less people knew about this .

Hence, she revealed a troubled expression and said, “I forgot . ”

Bai Feiyun didn’t urge her to answer . He told her to rest and headed out to check if the medicine was prepared .

Chapter 196 . 2: Dragon and Phoenix Meat

The moment he left, Tang Doudou lifted up the blanket to check her injury . However, she couldn’t see anything because it had been wrapped up with bandages . She let go of the blanket, feeling very depressed . She didn’t know how long she’d have to stay in bed again this time . It was seriously demanding her old life! She had never had a peaceful day since coming here . If she was offered the choice to go back, she really wanted to just walk away from all this .

But then she asked herself, if she really did have an opportunity to leave, would she really be able to bear leaving all of this behind?

Would she be able to bear parting with these friends?

Parting with the big evil spirit?

But the big evil spirit said that he had put that lamp in Plum Garden for her…


“Aiy…” Tang Doudou pulled the blanket over her head and sighed . Xiao Bai said that she had to rest for half a month, so didn’t that mean Su Yi’s scheme was going to fail?

Would the big evil spirit still come to find her?

Tang Doudou was very distressed . She started worrying about Mu Ye again and wondered how he was right now .

As she lay there, all sorts of thoughts raced through her brain and she couldn’t fall asleep at all .

Just as she was starting to get fidgetly, Bai Feiyun came back carrying medicine .

“Have the medicine first . ”

The distinctive bitter smell of medicine was apparent from far away . Tang Doudou covered her nose . “So bitter . ”

“Good medicine tastes bitter . ” Bai Feiyun helped her up and rearranged her pillow to support her before blowing on a spoonful of medicine and feeding it to her .

Tang Doudou felt a bit awkward watching him carefully move the spoon over and reached out to take the bowl .  
“I’ll do it myself!”

Bai Feiyun moved her hand away and said gently, “Be good, don’t move around . I’ll feed you . ”

The tone was so gentle that it melted one’s heart . Tang Doudou couldn’t bring herself to reject his good intentions a second time and could only obediently drink the medicine .

Bai Feiyun put the bowl away, satisfied, then started talking about serious matters . “In a bit, Senior Cang will be coming and he might ask you some questions about your Disseminating Tassel Fragrance . ”

Tang Doudou immediately tensed up when the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance was brought up . “What happened with the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance now? Is the poison flaring up again?”

“Of course not . Senior Cang said that your poison has already been cured . That’s why he wants to find out what happened,” Bai Feiyun answered nonchalantly . However, there was a trace of probing deep within his eyes .

Tang Doudou was currently still taken aback by his words and didn’t notice that Bai Feiyun seemed a little strange . She muttered to herself, “It’s cured? It’s actually cured? But why is it cured now?”

It’s too strange ah!

Tang Doudou was completely confused . She couldn’t figure out if it was because of the Black Demonic Nightcrawler’s heart or because of something else…

Bai Feiyun didn’t disrupt her thoughts . He simply collected the medicine bowl and the other things and went back out .

After that, Cang Baicao did come and ask her about the Disseminating Tassel Fragrance . However, she herself still hadn’t figured it out yet so there was no way she was able to give him any clues . After being questioned for half the day, she got worn out and fell asleep .

The next time she woke up was already the next day .

The moment she opened her eyes, she was given a scare by Su Yi’s wide eyes .

“What are you doing ah!? I thought it was some dead person staring at me!” Su Yi’s gaze was truly very chilling . It almost scared her soul flying .

Su Yi laughed ‘hehe’ and said, “Bai Feiyun said you had already woken up yesterday but I hadn’t believed him . I believe it now that I see how lively you are . Girl, do you want to eat anything? I’ll get you anything you want to eat! Don’t hold back, I’ll get anything you want!”

That good?

Tang Doudou looked at Su Yi suspiciously, feeling that this old fox definitely had some hidden bad intention . “You have dragon and phoenix meat too?”

Su Yi’s expression froze, then he forced a smile and asked, “You really want to eat dragon and phoenix meat?”

His manner gave Tang Doudou a serious scare . If she said she really wanted to eat it, could it be that he would really go to get them?

“Humph, of course…” Unexpectedly, before she even replied, Su Yi slapped his thigh and stood up . “As long as my family’s disciple wants to eat it . Isn’t it just dragon and phoenix meat? Master will go get them for you!”

The moment he finished speaking, he slipped off .

And left Tang Doudou by herself to face the chaotic wind . It couldn’t be that this guy had really gone to get dragon and phoenix meat?

Before asking where he was going to get them, just this enthusiasm of his was abnormal!

Don’t the proverbs say that those who are eagerly attentive for no reason, if they weren’t traitors then they were thieves?

This bastard definitely wanted to troll her somehow again!

She was already bedridden, yet he still wasn’t letting her off . Did he have any humanity!?

But Tang Doudou could only resign herself to fate with this kind of master .

The truth was, she had seriously misunderstood Su Yi . He had been blaming himself for failing to protect her so he wanted to get her something tasty in order to ease his guilt a little .

However, when he got the things and brought them back to Tang Doudou’s room, the two started staring at each other speechlessly again .

Because Tang Doudou couldn’t eat it right now ah!

If she ate it, it would simply sit in her stomach and cause inflammation . It might even affect the healing of her injury, so she could only let the maids occasionally feed her a bite of porridge .

Su Yi stayed to watch over her because he was too worried to leave . It was also a waste to throw away the food so, in the room as Tang Doudou swallowed the porridge with resentful eyes, Su Yi munched carefreely at the side . From time to time, he would even make satisfied smacks, causing Tang Doudou to itch to pounce on him and bite him to death .

How could he, it was too much…

Tang Doudou chewed the bland rice in her mouth indignantly as if she was chewing Su Yi’s flesh, causing Su Yi to be completely confused . He couldn’t figure out why Tang Doudou was staring at him with that type of expression . With a slurp, he sucked the meat from the bone into his mouth . After wiping his mouth, he asked, “I’ll just get some for you once you get better . Stop staring at me, it’s strangely spine-chilling…”

At least he knew that it was spine-chilling!

Tang Doudou silently complained . However, she was still very curious about the meat in his hand . Could it really be dragon and phoenix flesh? Wasn’t that too extraordinary?

“If you want to ask something, just ask . Don’t keep looking at me!”

Tang Doudou thanked the maid and indicated that she didn’t want to eat anymore . The maid curtsied and withdrew . After the door closed, Tang Doudou finally asked curiously, “What meat is that exactly?”
