Chapter 1528: Cry Out (2)

“It’s because of the roast fish,” Xuan Yi explained. “The fish contains a special kind of spiritual essence that can trigger breakthroughs.”
“Pfft —”
Mrs Zuo snorted. “Young Lord Xun, I see that you’re on Feng Wu’s side. That’s just preposterous. You’re trying to give all the credit to Feng Wu!”
She wasn’t the only one who wouldn’t believe it. No one in the tent would.
They all admitted that Feng Wu was a great cook, but there was no way that some delicious food could lead to a breakthrough!
“That’s just outrageous.”
“I can’t believe that Young Lord Xuan would tell a lie like that. It seems that he and Feng Wu are very close.”
“What he said is impossible. A breakthrough? Don’t make me laugh —”
Jun Wuxia almost burst out laughing.
Xuan Yi might think he’s doing Feng Wu a favor, but he isn’t helping her at all! This is going to seriously undermine my father’s impression of Feng Wu, she thought.
As expected, when she stole a glance at Emperor Wu, she saw that his eyes were as black as bottomless pools.
Jun Wuxia and Empress Dugu looked at each other, and both saw satisfaction in each other’s eyes.
But —
Before they realized it —
Something flickered in Xuan Yi’s eyes.
Lifting the lower hem of his robe, he sat down on the ground after apologizing to Emperor Wu.
It was exactly the same as what Feng Xun had done.
Everyone stared at Xuan Yi in bewilderment.
What was he doing?
“I ate too much fish. Please give me a moment.” Xuan Yi closed his eyes after that.
Rumble —
A few seconds later, everyone heard the sound of a breakthrough!
They couldn’t believe their ears!
He ate too much and needed a moment?
So, he was speeding up his digestion by having a breakthrough? That was unbelievable!
However, it was the truth.
After Feng Xun, Xuan Yi made a breakthrough as well.
Everyone held their breaths and looked shocked.
“Is it possible that their breakthroughs have something to do with the roast fish?”
“Can the fish be that extraordinary? It’s just… roast fish.”
“Maybe Feng Xun and Xuan Yi have been suppressing their breakthroughs until now.”
“Are you sure?”
“I don’t think so.”
“Then how do you explain the fact that they’re the only ones who have made breakthroughs?”
“I’ll believe it if someone else who has eaten the fish makes a breakthrough now.”
“That’s right! Feng Xun and Xuan Yi just aren’t convincing enough.”
–
They were still hesitating when —
All of a sudden!
“Wait a minute!”
Someone in the crowd cried out.
They all turned to look.
It was none other than Master Bai, the physician himself.
Pressing a hand to his dantian, Master Bai stared at Feng Wu in disbelief.
Feng Xun and Xuan Yi were sitting side by side. Just then, Master Bai quickly walked up to them and sat down next to Xuan Yi. He then apologized to Emperor Wu. “Your Majesty, sorry about this.”
As soon as he said that, a buzzing sound filled the air.
The rest of the crowd was astonished.
People like Mrs Zuo had been talking about how Feng Xun’s and Xuan Yi’s breakthroughs weren’t convincing enough, but they had to face the truth now!
“Oh, god! Master Bai is making a breakthrough!”
“Oh my god! I can’t believe this!”
“That’s so frightening! Feng Wu’s food can help with our cultivation!”
Emperor Wu was shocked!
Empress Dugu was shocked!
So was Jun Wuxia!
And everyone else!
