Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!

Chapter 733: Spotting the Target



Seeing Xin Yan looking directly at her as if she could see through the spirit world and watch her every movement made Wen Ji scared for her life.

Even when she saw the adorable cat roaming through the corridors of the castle, she did not get this scared. Maybe it was because she was expecting to see something like the cat, but Xin Yan looking at her was not something she was expecting.

So first Wen Ji froze upon meeting her gaze, and then she staggered backwards instinctively.

On her side was a side table on which lay a few accessories and a flowerpot.

Wen Ji collided with the table and passed through it in her spirit form, but the suddenness of her movements seemed to have affected the real world.

The table remained in place, but its contents vibrated lightly. Even though the movements were very minute, Wen Ji saw Xin Yan looking towards them and tilting her head in confusion.

When Xin Yan's eyes moved away from her and roamed around the room, Wej Ji relaxed a little. Only then did she realize how scared she had been.

'Can she really see me?' Now that Xin Yan's attention was not on her, she felt like what had just happened was nothing but an illusion, but the prickling feeling in her soul did not let her delude herself much.

'What is going on?' She wondered and moved a little, backing away slowly.

Xin Yan slowly lowered the sheets and sat up slowly to reveal the thin nightgown she was wearing underneath. She looked around the room in confusion, making Wen Ji doubt herself.

But realizing that she had not been caught, Wen Ji snapped around towards the door she entered from only to realize Xin Yan was looking in her direction once more.

But she also saw uncertainty in her eyes.

'Could it be that my sudden movements are making me attractive to her?' guessing what had happened Wen Ji's opinion on Xin Yan grew deeper: 'What a monstrous woman. Just who is she?'

She moved once more, with delicate and light steps, and realized that her guess appeared to be accurate. Xin Yan relaxed soon once she could not find anything in the room and slumped back in the bed.

She slowly turned away from Wen Ji and curled in her sheets, taking deep breaths of the lingering scent from the empty side of the bed.

Wen Ji was not focusing on her actions; instead, she was determined to walk out of the room, moving inch by inch. Damned by the paper, she would look for the man himself; there was no way he could be as powerful as this woman.

He was merely an envoy, and if he had any skills, there was no way someone as powerful as Xin Yan would be sent to accompany him by the Feng empire.

And soon she was safely out of the room. Standing in the lobby, Wen Ji exhaled a breath she had been holding in for a long time. She did not dare to stay there for long and hurriedly skipped away from the area.

But while leaving, she did not realize that as soon as she came out of the room, Xin Yan turned back to look in the direction of the closed door and muttered. "Looks like things just got really interesting here. To think I would come across a spirit farer in this lower realm."

Her lips dangerously curled upwards while her thoughts spiraled in an unknown direction once more.

'Did she come here looking for Noah?' Xin Yan's eyes flickered alarmingly; she clenched the sheets in her hands, a tearing sound came from them, but soon she released her hold and shook her head. 'No, I must be overthrown. She seemed to be looking for clues.

Xin Yan glanced towards the sheet of paper scattered on the table and blushed furiously. She raised her hands and thought of shredding the pages, but she paused and reconsidered her thoughts.

She waved her hands and drew all of the pages toward her storage ring, storing them away and diving back into the bed.

Wen Ji did not know what kind of disaster she had escaped as she roamed through the castle like a wandering ghost. If she had known, she might have pissed herself on the spot.

She started her search from door to door, stepping in on different scenes and various secrets, but none of them were the ones she was looking for. All she could see were scenes of thieving, scheming, adultery, and treachery.

'What a disgusting Royal Family. This is why money is the only thing you can trust.' She whispered to herself while dodging another squirrel-like animal roaming the silent halls. 'Just where is that bastard?!'

She had looked everywhere, but she still could not find any signs of Noah anywhere. Stepping out of the throne room, she wondered where the man was. During her walk, she also realized that the emperor was also missing.

'Could it be?' A thought popped in her head, making her realize that the two of them might be together. 'How could I not have realized this before? Dumb JiJi.'

She knocked herself on the head and made her way toward the Emperor's personal quarters.

She started skipping a little in a hurry, but she dared not to run in the mirror dimension. In some time, she found herself stepping into the courtyard that belonged alone to the emperor and the queen.

While moving through the garden in the middle, she noticed Queen sitting oddly close to her son and whispering something to him.

She found their interaction suspicious, but it had nothing to do with her as long as the queen was not planning to attack her.

Shortly, Concubine Wen Ji found herself standing in front of the closed doors of the emperor's personal study.

She walked closer and reached out to touch the wall and phase through it when the door to her side swung open.

Two figures stepped out of the room; one had a serene calmness on his face, and the other had a bitter smile on his face and a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

"I am glad we managed to reach a mutual understanding."

Noah smiled and shook the emperor's raised hand. But the emperor did not seem to be done speaking and continued, "In addition to the deal we made, I hope you can do something for me."

Noah did not frown at his words and asked with a smile, "And what would that be?"

The emperor sighed heavily and replied, "Help me deal with the little personal problem I have been having. Once you find everything, please tell me everything."
