125: Chapter 125 Those who defame my daughter must die

The main gate opened!

Pavilion Master Ji Linger led Lin Feng and the others as they filed inside.

After entering the Ji Mansion, Lin Feng and the others were once again filled with admiration.

It seemed the entire Ji Mansion was like a small kingdom.

Ancient palaces stood in continuous undulations.

Pavilions and towers were arranged in a staggered, orderly fashion, interspersed among them.

Along the way, it was overgrown with many exotic flowers and rare herbs, as well as famous ancient trees.

Spring peaches, summer lotuses, autumn osmanthus, winter plums...

Wisteria trellises, peony gardens, bamboo groves; every step offered a different view.

Walking along the way, Lin Feng felt completely dazzled.

The entire Ji Mansion had exceptionally strict rules.

The maids and servants Lin Feng saw along the way were all dressed in green tunics and small caps.

Upon seeing Pavilion Master Ji Linger and the others arrive, they immediately and respectfully stepped aside.

Bowing their heads, they stood by with their hands at their sides.

Only after Pavilion Master Ji Linger and her group had walked far away did they dare to move.

Even when walking, they did so on tiptoe, not daring to make too much noise.

Under the guidance of Pavilion Master Ji Linger!

Lin Feng and the others bypassed several long corridors.

Finally, they successfully arrived at their destination.

This was the inner residence of the Ji Mansion.

In the spacious main hall, a noblewoman of about thirty-something years was sitting there drinking tea.

The noblewoman was extremely beautiful.

She bore an eight-point resemblance to Pavilion Master Ji Linger.

However, she appeared more mature.

She could be described as still possessing great charm.

Beside her, many maids were attending to her attentively.

"Mother, I'm back!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger entered the hall with a smile.

"Linger!" Hearing this, the noblewoman hurriedly stood up abruptly and came forward to greet her.

She grabbed Pavilion Master Ji Linger's arm and looked her up and down, "Linger, you've lost weight and gotten tanned. You must have suffered a lot along the way, right?"

"I haven't suffered much, Mother!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger said with a smile.

Speaking of this, she changed the subject, "By the way, how is Father?"

"Sigh, your father is still the same, remaining in a coma." The noblewoman let out a long sigh, and a hint of sorrow quietly appeared at the corners of her eyes.

"Mother, this time I brought back the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass. With this Precious Medicine, Father will definitely be able to wake up successfully!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger said loudly.

"W-what? Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass? Where did you get it from?" Upon hearing this, the noblewoman could not help but be both shocked and delighted. She suddenly grabbed Pavilion Master Ji Linger's jade hand and said with extreme excitement.

"I was lucky enough to win it at an auction!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger replied.

"Haha, good, this is truly wonderful. With the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow, your father can be saved!" Wang Hui could not help but shed tears.

"Mother, hurry and take me to see Father!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger said urgently.

After speaking, she turned back to look at Lin Feng and the others, "Pavilion Master Su, Lin Feng, you all rest here for a moment. I will be back soon!"

"Hmm, go ahead!" Hall Master Su Tongtian waved his hand.

"Linger, who are they?" Wang Hui asked in surprise.

"Mother, he is Hall Master Su Tongtian of the Jidao Martial Arts Hall, and these few are his Disciples Lin Feng, Senior Brother Li Qiang...

Fortunately, with them escorting me this time, I was able to safely return to Qinghe Prefecture!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger introduced them briefly.

"Thank you all for escorting my daughter home. Please wait a moment; once my husband wakes up, he will come out to thank you all!" Wang Hui said with a hint of aloofness amidst her politeness.

"Please go ahead, Madam!" Hall Master Su Tongtian replied.

"Let's go, Linger!" Wang Hui nodded slightly, took Pavilion Master Ji Linger's jade hand, and headed straight towards the back residence.

Lin Feng and the others drank tea in the main hall, waiting quietly.

...

Entering the bedroom!

They saw a middle-aged man of about forty-something years, his face pale and eyes tightly closed, lying quietly on a large bed.

"Father!" Seeing the emaciated appearance of her father, Elder Ji Cang, Pavilion Master Ji Linger could not help but shed tears and rushed over.

One had to know that her father, Elder Ji Cang, used to be the number one handsome man in Qinghe Prefecture.

He didn't know how many young ladies from great families and noblewomen he had captivated!

But now, Elder Ji Cang was emaciated, having lost so much weight that he was unrecognizable.

He looked extremely weak, as if he were about to die!

"Linger, stop crying. Quickly take out the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass and wake your father!" Wang Hui said from the side!

"Ah! Okay!" Hearing this, Pavilion Master Ji Linger quickly stopped crying.

With a flick of her hand, she took out a crystal-clear jade box from her Storage Pouch!

Inside was the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass.

As for the wooden box taken out a while ago, it was entirely to deceive Commander Chu Xingchen.

The wooden box only contained a common Precious Medicine.

Father, Elder Ji Cang, had been afflicted with an extremely vicious curse in a Secret Realm.

Thus, he fell into a coma, appearing like a living dead person!

Only this legendary Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass could wake him.

Pavilion Master Ji Linger took the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass out of the jade box and was about to feed it to her father!

"Linger, let me do it!" Seeing this, Wang Hui hurriedly said!

After speaking, she took the Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass directly from Pavilion Master Ji Linger's hand.

Applying a slight force with her right hand, the entire Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass immediately turned into fine dust.

Wang Hui wrapped it with Innate spiritual power, then pinched Elder Ji Cang's chin, made him open his mouth, and fed it to him.

Before long, Elder Ji Cang's paper-white face finally gradually regained a hint of rosiness.

His shriveled skin also quickly regained its elasticity.

"Haha, this Nine-Orifice Dragon Marrow Grass is truly effective. Father is about to wake up!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger said with wild joy.

"Hmm!" Wang Hui nodded!

After speaking, she suddenly took Pavilion Master Ji Linger's hand and whispered, "Your father needs some time to wake up. Let's go to the side hall and chat; Mother has something to tell you!"

"Okay!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger did not suspect anything and followed Wang Hui into the adjacent side hall!

As soon as they entered the side hall, Wang Hui's face immediately sank like water, and she asked displeasedly, "Tell me, who is that man?"

"Ah?" Pavilion Master Ji Linger was stunned upon hearing this and asked in confusion, "Mother, what are you talking about? What man?"

"Hmph, are you still trying to deceive Mother at this point?" Wang Hui said coldly, "From the first moment I saw you, I could tell that you were no longer a maiden.

Tell me, who is that man?"

"..." Pavilion Master Ji Linger.

She hadn't expected her mother's discernment to be so sharp!

She could tell at a glance that she was no longer a virgin.

"Speak!" Seeing Pavilion Master Ji Linger remained silent, Wang Hui shouted angrily again.

"Mother, it was just an accident!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger replied.

"What kind of accident?" Wang Hui stared at her intensely and demanded sharply.

"Mother, I don't want to say!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger shook her head.

She could not say, and she dared not say!

Because once her mother knew that the man was Lin Feng!

She would surely be thunderously furious and execute Lin Feng on the spot.

In a large Family like theirs, there was not much familial affection to speak of.

Everything was for the sake of interests.

And she had been betrothed since childhood to the direct descendant of the Dongfang Family, Young Patriarch.

In the future, she was destined to become the young mistress of the Dongfang Family!

Once her purity was lost, it was absolutely a matter that could pierce the heavens.

"You must say it. If you refuse to say it, once I find out for myself, I will definitely grind that man's bones to dust and tear his corpse into ten thousand pieces.

If you tell me, Mother might be able to handle it with discretion; perhaps I can spare his life!

Whether he lives or dies, you choose for yourself!" Wang Hui said expressionlessly.

"Mother, why must you force me?" Pavilion Master Ji Linger felt extremely aggrieved, and two lines of crystal-clear tears slid down her cheeks!

"Fine, since you refuse to say, then I will go and ask Zhu Neng and the others..." After saying this, Wang Hui turned and left.

"Mother, wait, I'll tell you..." Pavilion Master Ji Linger hurriedly grabbed her.

"Good, speak!"

"Mother, the situation is like this. On the road to Qinghe Prefecture..." Pavilion Master Ji Linger spoke eloquently, quickly recounting the events!

She emphasized that Lin Feng did it only to save her life.

"So it was him!" Wang Hui's face sank like water.

She turned around quickly and walked out of the side hall, "I am going to find him right now!"

"Ah? Mother, what do you want to do to Lin Feng?" Pavilion Master Ji Linger was anxious and asked loudly.

"Those who tarnish my daughter's purity must die!"
