Mrs Ning stared at Feng Wu!
In fact, she had always felt that she was having two babies, but all the medicine refiners she had consulted had told her that there was only one. She had had no choice but to accept that conclusion until now…
“How can you prove it?” Mrs Ning asked earnestly.
Feng Wu shrugged. “You’ll see when you’re in labor. However, in order to keep the baby girl alive, you must take very good care of yourself and carry your pregnancy to full term. Otherwise…”
Mrs Ning nodded.
Yan Yan was vexed. Tugging at Mrs Ning, she yelled, “Aunt, that’s all bullshit! You can’t believe her!”
Mrs Ning rubbed her forehead. “Call it motherly instinct, but I feel the same.”
The corner of Yan Yan’s mouth twitched. She was going to say something else, but Mrs Ning cut her off.
Mrs Ning smiled at Feng Wu. “No matter what happens, thank you for your reminder.”
She nodded at Feng Wu, then led the others back to their corner.
Qiuling pursed her lips. “My mistress is the best medicine refiner on this continent. They’ll soon learn their lesson.”
Feng Wu stuffed a fruit in Qiuling’s mouth. “Get some rest. Tomorrow morning —”
Just then, there was a loud bang!
Something rumbled in the far distance.
The entire Sumeru Temple shook violently as if there was an earthquake!
Everyone was shocked!
What happened?!
“Look after my mother. I’ll go have a look,” Feng Wu told Qiuling.
The explosive sound made her restless, but she couldn’t put her finger on it.
Seeing Feng Wu run out of Sumeru Temple, Ning Chenxi followed her out.
Yan Yan ran out after Ning Chenxi.
Sumeru Temple was halfway up the mountain and didn’t have the best range of vision. Feng Wu jumped onto the roof at once, looking in the direction of that sound.
The evening glow painted the sky blood red, creating a rather terrifying picture.
Rumble!
There came another loud sound!
The blurry image of an enormous dragon suddenly appeared among the red clouds!
It was such a forbidding and frightening image!
Feng Wu’s heart sank!
The image disappeared as quickly as it had appeared and was completely gone in a matter of seconds. Apart from Feng Wu, who had been standing on top of the roof, no one else saw it.
Feng Wu jumped down immediately and headed back.
“What’s wrong?” Ning Chenxi caught up with Feng Wu and saw that she was grim-faced and very stiff, as if she had seen something terrifying.
Yan Yan was also confused. Feng Wu had jumped onto the roof before coming back down after a few seconds and heading back in a hurry… what had she seen?
It was just thunder. Wasn’t it?
Feng Wu said to Ning Chenxi as she walked, “If I’ve guessed correctly, a wave of magical beasts is coming. You should get going.”
“What? A wave of magical beasts?” Ning Chenxi shook his head involuntarily. “It can’t be. That was just thunder and nothing more. It can’t be something as serious as magical beasts. Plus, it’s not the right season. They usually only come out in winter…”
However, Feng Wu didn’t say another word to him. She only told Qiuling, “Pack our things now. We’re leaving.”
That successfully surprised everyone.
However, Qiuling never questioned anything Feng Wu said. The three of them all got up, packed their things, and were ready to go in less than a minute.
