Chapter 363 (2/2)

On their way into town, Luo Yunzhu was so happy that she forgot all about the pain in her foot. She chattered away like a little bird.

At the foot of the mountain in the forest, there were many herb sellers. Everything was much cheaper than it would have been at an auction. The ingredients to make a Beautifying Pill were rare, but they weren’t impossible to find. Beautifying Pills had become a rarity, mostly because there were few alchemists. And very few of those alchemists were interested in making Beautifying Pills.

They made the rounds in the small town and spent a million gold coins. They bought all the herbs to make a Beautifying Pill.

It was approaching noontime, and many people were on the streets. The hawkers on either side of the road moved back to a create walkway about six or seven feet wide, while the pedestrians all stood to one side and looked out.

“Tianlan, do you think that His Highness will have trouble recognizing you after he wakes up? That send you flying with a wave of his hand?”

Feng Tianlan replied without even thinking, “No. He won’t.”

Luo Yunzhu laughed teasingly, “Look at you! You’re so confident of His Highness. This is…”

“Lady Phoenix has arrived!”

Suddenly, a solemn voice rang out and cut off Luo Yunzhu’s chattering.

“Lady Phoenix?” Luo Yunzhu looked up curiously and saw a sedan with a thin red muslin cloth slowly approaching from outside the town. She looked and tried to see what the person inside looked like but could only make out her silhouette.

“Tianlan, can you see what Lady Phoenix looked like?” Luo Yunzhu was on tiptoes, but she still couldn’t catch a glimpse.

Feng Tianlan squinted at the shadow seated inside the sedan. She felt, somehow, that this woman seemed familiar. “I can’t see her, but she seems familiar.”

“Who is Lady Phoenix, anyway?” Luo Yunzhu had a lot of questions. With people throwing fresh flowers at this flashy sedan with its red muslin cloth passing, it looked more like the top prostitute of a brothel was passing by.
