"What?" Tissou was stunned for a moment.
"Originally, the Parthenon Temple's academy enrollment was a very joyous event, but Ge Gegen, a Parthenon Temple priest, used despicable means to forcibly abduct someone!
This makes me highly doubt your academy's educational methods! Are all the people who come out of the Parthenon Academy like this?"
"Wang Councilor!"
Hall Mother Tissou's voice suddenly rose a few octaves, but when she met Wang Feng's emotionless eyes, she remembered Saintess Asha Ruiya's instructions and immediately softened her tone:
"I apologize, Wang Councilor. Our Parthenon Temple will fully rectify the issues you've raised. Those personnel with improper conduct will be demoted and sent back to the Hall of Faith for re-education."
She bowed slightly, adopting a very humble posture: "I will also personally speak with Ge Gegen and Di Kai'ousi to ensure they deeply understand their mistakes and provide you with a satisfactory explanation."
Wang Feng looked at Tissou with some surprise.
It was rare for someone in her high position to accept criticism so humbly.
No wonder she could become Hall Mother Pami Shi's most trusted Hall Mother; her magnanimity and demeanor were indeed extraordinary.
"I look forward to seeing the Parthenon's changes."
The next morning.
Master Ling Xiuyuan also delivered the modified Lapis Lazuli Phoenix Feather to Wang Feng.
The modified Lapis Lazuli Phoenix Feather, which combined a feather cloak and stockings, not only retained its original beauty but also possessed some defensive capabilities of armor magic equipment.
Most remarkably, it could be perfectly stacked with regular armor magic equipment and boot magic equipment.
Although it was only of Soul-level magic equipment quality after repair, it was just right for Xin Xia to use.
At the same time.
Hall Mother Tissou also brought Ge Gegen and Di Kai'ousi to apologize.
After a night of "persuasion," these two priests, who were once arrogant, now looked pale with eyes full of fear, completely different from their arrogant selves of yesterday.
"Wang Councilor, Miss Ye Xin Xia, we have deeply realized our mistakes."
Ge Gegen's voice trembled slightly: "We should not have acted without your consent, going against your wishes."
The two bowed deeply to Wang Feng and Ye Xin Xia, their sincere appearance making them almost unrecognizable as the arrogant Parthenon priests from yesterday.
Wang Feng did not respond immediately but turned his gaze to Ye Xin Xia, giving her the decision-making power.
Ye Xin Xia pursed her lips and showed a gentle smile: "I accept your apology."
"Thank you for your generosity." The two straightened up with a sigh of relief, fine beads of sweat already seeping from their foreheads.
Tissou stepped forward at the opportune moment, her voice soft: "Miss Ye Xin Xia, are you still willing to accompany us to the Parthenon Temple for study?"
Ye Xin Xia turned to look at Wang Feng, her eyes revealing reluctance.
After a moment of contemplation, she whispered: "Tomorrow. I need to prepare a bit more."
Tissou nodded understandingly: "Of course, we will come to pick you up tomorrow."
After speaking, she and Ge Gegen and Di Kai'ousi left the apartment.
…
Because Xin Xia was leaving Huaxia tomorrow, Mu Ningjiao and Ai Tutu thoughtfully left the last moments for her and Wang Feng to be alone.
The bathroom door slowly opened, and amidst the misty water vapor, Xin Xia walked in, bathed in moonlight.
Crystal-clear water droplets slid gracefully along her waterfall-like black hair, finally gathering into a small clear pool at her delicate collarbone.
The feather cloak named Lapis Lazuli Phoenix Feather clung tightly to her graceful figure.
Crimson-gold light flowed gently with her light steps, as if every ray of light had life, dancing around her.
At the neckline, a hint of snowy skin was faintly visible, appearing even purer and flawless under the rainbow reflection of the feather cloak, like the whitest snowflake under the moonlight.
She tiptoed slightly, gracefully twirling once, and the light red stockings perfectly wrapped her slender legs, occasionally appearing and disappearing between the gaps of the hem, exuding a fatal allure.
"Does it look good? Brother Wang Feng~"
Xin Xia's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze after a bath, carrying a hint of sweetness.
Wang Feng's Adam's apple unconsciously bobbed.
Tonight's Xin Xia was exceptionally beautiful and charming, leaving Wang Feng speechless.
Ye Xin Xia suddenly let out a soft laugh, and with a ripple of her eyes, she lightly fell into his arms.
Her warm fingertips traced the back of his neck, and she exhaled like an orchid: "Brother Wang Feng, do you know?"
Her rose-colored lips almost touched his earlobe: "Tonight… Xin Xia prepared lilac oil in the backyard…"
She felt the arms around her suddenly tighten, and triumphantly buried her face in his shoulder.
The slipping straps of the Lapis Lazuli Feather Cloak refracted an enchanting rainbow under the light.
…
The next morning, as dawn just broke, Wang Feng personally escorted a slightly tired Ye Xin Xia to the Magic City Airport.
"Remember to send me a message when you arrive."
Wang Feng placed a space ring on Ye Xin Xia's ring finger, gently stroking her hair as he spoke.
"Mm."
Ye Xin Xia looked up, nodding obediently, her eyelashes casting delicate shadows in the morning light.
After watching Ye Xin Xia board the plane, the gentleness on Wang Feng's face instantly faded.
When he turned to look at Tissou and her group, his gaze was as cold as a knife: "Xin Xia is in your Parthenon's care."
"If she suffers even the slightest mishap—I will flatten your Goddess Peak!"
These words were like a thunderclap, and the Guardian Knights behind Tissou instantly erupted in rage, each glaring at Wang Feng with eyes burning with fury.
Several young Guardian Knights even had their magic power surging!
"Stop it all!" Tissou shouted sharply, cold sweat seeping from her forehead.
She could feel that Wang Feng was by no means bluffing.
The man in front of her truly had the ability to destroy Goddess Peak!
"Please rest assured." Tissou forcefully suppressed the unease in her heart: "The Parthenon Temple is the safest place in the world; Miss Ye Xin Xia will be absolutely safe there."
"Safe?"
Wang Feng gave her a cold glance, a mocking curve forming on his lips:
"It better be."
With that, Wang Feng turned and left without looking back.
"Hall Mother Tissou!" a young Guardian Knight couldn't help but step forward, his face full of indignation: "How dare he be so rude…"
"Enough!" Tissou sternly interrupted him, her eyes filled with warning, "This is not something you should be discussing."
The knight immediately lowered his head: "…Yes, ma'am."
…
Time flew by, and another period passed.
During this time, Wang Feng also began to delve into the ancient secret arts (forbidden arts) left by the Ancient King.
Although many of them were no longer applicable to the current magic system, there were still many practical and useful methods for Wang Feng to reference.
Wang Feng also managed to raise his spiritual power from the peak of the sixth realm to the seventh realm, officially entering the ranks of the Grand Realm.
And with the help of the Calamity Abyss, his Undead System also advanced to the Starlight (High-level) tier in one go.
Soon after, it was finally time for the National Government to assemble.
