Nie Chifeng sat cross-legged on a bamboo bed, focusing on her breathing while contemplating inwardly. She was collecting her breath.
She harbored some discontentment about the mission from Rongxun Hall: Feng Jun was indeed crucial to the Crimson Phoenix Sect, but why did it have to be her who guarded him?
As her life counted down its days, she felt that her rightful place was in seclusion at Rongxun Hall, coming out every ten or so days to check on various news about the Crimson Phoenix, engage in some verbal sparring, and then continue her retreat.
Thus, on this mission, although she carefully observed her surroundings, much of the time she remained in seclusion to minimize the loss of her vitality. After all, she was within the Hidden Formation and didn't worry about others seeing her, especially since she was facing Feng Jun's residence directly.
Like now, she spotted a little girl at the eighth stage of shedding mortals, walking out of Feng Jun's residence.
