Chapter 85 - Waking Up Blues (2/2)
She picked up the bun and swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, then turned and started walking towards the ruins of the palace wing until she reached her bed, whereupon she lifted her blanket and laid down.
Moments later, a familiar sound of snoring could be heard.
Everyone: “…”
It seemed as if she had been asleep all the time!

When Shen Ying woke up the next day, she saw a crowd around her bed. The eyes that were fixed on her had expressions ranging from worry, exhilaration to adoration.
“Oh…” she said. After a moment of silence, she raised her hand in greeting, “Good morning! Are you… are all you here to call me down for breakfast?” Did you all have to come?
“…”
Nobody replied, but the expressions in their eyes said it all.
What was it with these guys?
A baffled Shen Ying sat up on her bed. It was then that she noticed the wreckage in front of her. “Huh? What happened to the room? Was there an earthquake?”
“…” Everyone exchanged glances. One of them asked warily, “Sect Master, don’t you… remember?”
“Remember what?” Shen Ying shook her head, looking even more perplexed.
“Nothing… Nothing!” Everyone shook their heads and gulped. Words failed them.
Yu Hong stood up and looked at her. “Sect Master, last night, the Yu Family Patriarch led a group of Soul Formation cultivators up the mountain and broke into our sect. We got into a fight so that is why…”
“Oh.” Shen Ying nodded her head and asked, “So is it all settled?”
“Settled… I think!”
“Not bad.” Shen Ying added another word of praise, “Well done, everybody.”
Everyone:”…” Something was stuck in their throats.
“But this room is quite badly damaged.” Shen Ying stood up and looked around. Rebuilding this room would take a couple of days. She was just about to arrange for someone to call for the rabbit.
“Great Immortal!” A man who was standing at the end of the bed walked directly towards her. “Great Immortal, please save my father!”
Only then did Shen Ying notice him. “Who are you?” she asked in surprise.
“Sect Master, this is Yin Yuanfei, the young master of the Yin family,” Si Yu stepped forwards to explain. “He was escaping pursuit from the Yu Family, who were trying to kill him. Yesterday, the rabbit demons brought him to in here in the middle of the night.”
“Oh…” So it was that asshole. “Is your father alright?”
“My father and the other two aristocratic family patriarchs, as well as many cultivators from the various sects were lured by the Yu family into the Immortal Ascension Pagoda. I don’t know whether they are alive or dead!”
“Immortal Ascension Pagoda?” What kind of place was this? Shen Ying was silent for a moment, then she turned her head and looked at the Feng Ying, who was beside her. “You… Baby, you have more information, can you explain?”
Feng Ying: “…”
Who the hell was she calling Baby? Although his was a parenting system, did she really have to treat him like a child?
“My name is Feng Ying!” Call me baby again and you’ll be sorry, believe me!
