Chapter 1215 - A Lucky Draw? 3 (1/2)

Her mental strength alone exceeded that of any regular person.

“Do you know why you’re still alive?” Master Linghu kept his unblinking, brooding gaze on Feng Wu, and his tone was as casual as if he was merely chatting with her.

“Master, why did you want to kill me?”

Even when she was facing one of the most powerful men in the empire, Feng Wu was neither humble nor pushy, and looked perfectly unperturbed.

Master Linghu couldn’t help giving Feng Wu a long look. Her temperament alone impressed him.

That aplomb reminded Master Linghu of another amazing teenager.

“I’m not a nice person. Since I’ve injured you, I’ll help you once in return.”

Master Linghu looked at Feng Wu. “You may make one request.”

Something stirred inside Feng Wu!

A favor from Master Linghu in return for an injury? If that was the deal, the people of this empire would be thrilled!

Feng Wu knew better, though. Master Linghu was treating her differently probably because of Little Phoenix.

She then thought about her beautiful master. Could it be that Master Linghu knew her master as well?

Feng Wu was about to ask, when Master Linghu spoke again.

“A question counts as a favor, too.”

Feng Wu was speechless. Fine, the broken star piece was her top priority. As long as her master woke up, she could ask him a hundred questions if she wanted to.

At that thought, Feng Wu straightened her face and looked at Master Linghu.

She then opened her palm, revealing a peach blossom petal.

Feng Wu stared at Master Linghu, stressing each word as she spoke. “I want the second broken star piece.”

Master Linghu’s black-and-white face remained emotionless, but he raised his straight, black eyebrow a moment later, and gave Feng Wu a half-smile. There was a knowing look in his eyes.

He sounded amused when he asked, “Are you sure?”

What was that look? Instinctively, Feng Wu felt that the master wasn’t telling her everything, but she still nodded. “I’m sure!”
