Chapter 476 Master Assures Me This Severe Poisoning Is Part of the Curriculum
Qiao Mei’s posture remained graceful and relaxed, but the faint smile on her lips revealed that she was not surprised at all by her sister’s arrival.
"Sister," Qiao Mei greeted softly. Chu Jiangyue’s mother slowly walked into the pavilion before sitting across from her. Her sharp eyes quietly examined Qiao Mei from head to toe.
Immediately, her heart became even more shaken. Qiao Mei’s aura had clearly changed. It was more refined. More profound. And definitely much stronger.
This discovery caused complicated emotions to surge within her heart.
Qiao Mei, meanwhile, remained calm on the surface, though inwardly she had already guessed why her sister came.
She knew very well that she had intentionally concealed many details in the report she said to the clan. The truth was simply too shocking.
If the clan fully learned how much she had benefited after meeting Lin Feng, countless people would likely become restless. After all, she herself still found everything unbelievable.
From the moment she met Lin Feng, her fate seemed to have completely changed.
"It seems," Chu Jiangyue’s mother finally said slowly, breaking the silence, "that you obtained quite the fortuitous encounter the moment you met Lin Feng, Qiao Mei."
Her voice carried a complicated tone. There was curiosity within it. There was disbelief.
And hidden deep beneath everything else... there was unmistakable wariness since they knew very little about Lin Feng after all.
Qiao Mei naturally noticed it immediately. For a brief moment, the two sisters simply stared at one another beneath the nice morning sun.
Then Qiao Mei slowly smiled before lifting her teacup gracefully.
"Sister," she said softly, "you still have not truly understood just how terrifying Lin Feng truly is."
Chu Shuran was the name of Chu Jiangyue’s mother. After hearing everything her younger sister had said, she slowly nodded her head, fully believing every single word.
The shock and disbelief she had initially felt were gradually replaced by deep amazement and curiosity toward the mysterious man named Lin Feng.
The two sisters continued their conversation for a long time afterward.
They spoke about Chu Jiangyue’s adventures outside the ancient clan, about the dangerous situations she had encountered, and most importantly, about the unbelievable events surrounding Lin Feng himself.
As the hours passed, the tension that had lingered between them completely disappeared. The sisters laughed occasionally, sighed at certain stories, and even became emotional at some points.
It truly felt as though they had returned to the days of their youth when they would secretly talk deep into the night about everything in their lives.
Qiao Mei spoke in detail about the outside world and how much Chu Jiangyue had changed during the journey.
"Yue’er has matured greatly," Qiao Mei said softly with a proud smile. "At first she was still somewhat arrogant because of her talent and status within the clan. But after meeting Master Lin Feng and seeing the vastness of the world outside, she began to understand how small we truly are beneath the heavens."
Chu Shuran quietly listened while lightly holding her tea cup. A complicated emotion flickered within her beautiful eyes. As a mother, she naturally cared deeply about her daughter’s growth.
Hearing that Chu Jiangyue had benefited so much made her feel relieved.
"It seems Yue’er has truly gained a fortunate encounter this time," Chu Shuran muttered. "Not only did she return safely, but her temperament and cultivation have also improved."
Qiao Mei nodded in agreement.
"Master Lin Feng guided her quite a lot. Although he rarely says many words, every sentence he speaks carries profound meaning. Even I have learned greatly from him."
The more Chu Shuran listened, the more curious she became about this mysterious man. According to Qiao Mei’s descriptions, Lin Feng seemed almost flawless.
He possessed heaven-defying power, unmatched talent, extraordinary appearance, and yet lacked the pride that usually accompanied such monstrous geniuses.
That alone was enough to astonish her.
After all, throughout her life, Chu Shuran had met countless so-called geniuses and young masters from powerful clans.
Most of them were arrogant, lustful, and insufferable once they obtained a little power or status. Men who possessed true strength while remaining humble were incredibly rare.
"It seems that this Master Lin Feng is truly extraordinary," Chu Shuran said quietly. "For Yue’er to respect him so much despite her personality... he must possess an incredible charm."
Qiao Mei smiled faintly upon hearing that.
"Incredible charm?" she repeated softly before shaking her head. "Sister, you have not met him personally yet. Once you do, you will understand that those words are still an understatement."
As she spoke, Qiao Mei unconsciously recalled Lin Feng’s calm eyes, his indifferent smile, and the natural elegance he carried wherever he went.
Even now, merely thinking about him caused her heartbeat to quicken slightly. Chu Shuran noticed the subtle change in her sister’s expression and immediately became stunned inwardly.
She knew Qiao Mei extremely well. Her younger sister had always possessed a calm and proud temperament ever since they were young. Ordinary men could not even enter her eyes.
Yet now, merely mentioning Lin Feng caused such a gentle expression to appear on her face. This alone already explained many things.
Chu Shuran narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly before speaking teasingly.
"Mei’er... it seems this Master Lin Feng has left quite a deep impression on you."
The moment those words were spoken, Qiao Mei’s face instantly reddened slightly.
"S-sister..."
She lowered her gaze for a moment, clearly embarrassed. However, after a brief silence, she no longer tried to hide her feelings completely.
"There is simply no woman who could remain completely unmoved after spending time around him," Qiao Mei admitted honestly. "Master Lin Feng is unlike any man I have ever met before."
Her voice became softer and softer as she continued.
"He treats powerful cultivators and ordinary mortals the same way. He never flaunts his strength, yet everyone naturally submits to him willingly. Even his women adore him completely, but not because they fear him. They genuinely love him."
