Chapter 445: Visiting the Night Market

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“No one disappeared when they were at home?”

“No.”

After Feng Ling heard this, she didn’t ask further and said to her, “You can leave first.”

After Granny Wang left, Feng Ling stopped eating and started thinking.

Seeing her like this, the king picked up some more of her favorite food and said, “Eat first. After the meal, the person I sent to investigate will come back. We’ll decide after we hear the results.”

Not long after the two of them had eaten, the person sent by the king returned.

The information reported by the scout was similar to what Granny Wang had said.

“The people who disappeared are all between the ages of 16 and 30. The common feature is that they disappeared outside at night.”

The Kingdom of Phoenix Skies was rich and powerful. There was a night market in the county at night. These youngsters either came out to sell things to earn money or to accompany their sweetheart or family out to play.

“However, when these people disappeared, they were all alone and no one saw how they disappeared. People only realized they had gone missing when they weren’t able to find them.”

When he heard this, the king said, “Continue to look for those people in the dark. When Assistant Minister Wu comes over with his men, get him to send people to go door to door to investigate. Then, bring his men to look for people outside the county.”

“Yes.”

The scout left after receiving the order.

Feng Ling had a nagging feeling that Feng Lan must have something to do with this. She thought for a while about what Feng Lan’s intentions were if she truly was the one who captured these people.

However, there was also something else. Feng Lan had been staying in her residence obediently these past few days and didn’t go out at all. Even if this matter was related to Feng Lan, they couldn’t find any evidence against her.

Thinking up to this point, Feng Ling said to the king, “Since they all disappeared at night, the county has ordered the night market to be canceled. I wonder if those people from the demonic path will still come out tonight.”

The king also thought of this. He said, “The night market will continue as usual tonight. When the time comes, Assistant Minister Wu will send some people to disguise themselves as ordinary men.”

Feng Ling nodded. Looking at his overly outstanding handsome face, she said, “I’ll help you put on a disguise when the time comes. I guarantee that no one will recognize you when you go out.”

Since it was a private visit, they definitely couldn’t let anyone recognize them.

Of course, the king agreed.

For the entire afternoon, the person who went out to investigate came back twice to report.

Still no one was found.

The afternoon ended quickly.

It wasn’t raining in Green River County. The weather was neither cold nor hot this season, and it was a good time to go out and play.

Green River County was most famous for a river that ran through the county. On both sides of the river was the main road and also the main business area.

When Feng Ling came out, not only did the king want her to make herself ugly, but he also wanted her to wear a gauze hat.

The king said, “I’m more at ease this way.”

When Feng Ling heard this, the corners of her lips subconsciously curled up.

The two of them didn’t bring any guards. Like an ordinary married couple, they walked to the night market.

The lights had just lit up, and the ten thousand houses were brightly lit. The main roads on both sides of the river were filled with glass lights. There were flower boats in the river upon which people were singing and dancing, and the sound of hawking and playing on the shore formed a prosperous scene.

From this, it could be seen how well the king had managed the Kingdom of the Phoenix Skies.

Feng Ling actually rarely came out in this time and space, especially in such a bustling place.

Worried that she wasn’t used to this environment, the king kept holding her hand and protecting her by her side.

The customs of the Kingdom of Phoenix Skies were still very open. When people saw the young couple come out holding hands, they would at most glance at them and not say anything about them ruining the customs.

On the street, Feng Ling was dazzled by the sights around her.

Actually, in the modern era, she seldom went out to shop, staying in school most of the time. Even when she wanted to buy something, she was used to shopping online.

Seeing those lanterns and snacks, Feng Ling had long forgotten that she was a priestess. From time to time, she tugged at the king’s sleeve. “Look, that flower lamp looks really pretty… That clay figurine is nice too, that…”

It had been a long time since the king had seen Feng Ling so happy like a child. His heart was filled with joy. He whispered in her ear, “Call me Brother Jingzhou and I’ll buy it for you.”

When Feng Ling heard this, she subconsciously blushed and shut her mouth.

It was embarrassing to be calling him that when so many people were around.

The king looked at her expression and a glint flashed across his eyes. He added, “I heard that the most famous things in Green River County are wine and lotus crisps. Are you sure you don’t want some?”

Feng Ling still kept her mouth shut. For her to call him that in such a place, she inexplicably felt a little ashamed. She thought that at most, she wouldn’t eat.

The king continued, “Other than these two, the Lotus Wine in Green River County is also excellent.”

After saying that, the king pointed ahead. “It seems to be at the entrance of the alley in front. Do you see it? There are already many people queuing there. These people are all going to buy lotus wine. It’s said that that shop only sells 20 bottles a day when the night market begins. After they’re sold, the shop closes for the day.”

Feng Ling looked where the king was pointing and saw that there was indeed a queue there. The queue had already reached the entrance of the alley, and there were still people who continued to line up.

Other things weren’t very tempting to her, but when it came to wine, she instantly threw away her reservations. She pulled the king’s sleeve and called out without principles, “Brother Jingzhou.”

Feng Ling’s voice was originally pleasant to hear. Now that she was calling him this, her voice was sweet and directly entered the king’s heart.

He tightened his grip on her hand and strode over.

When the two of them went over, there were already more than ten people queuing up in front. Feng Ling was a little anxious. “Will we not be able to buy the wine?”

The king held her hand and stopped outside the crowd.

Feng Ling asked, “Aren’t we going to line up?”

“No need. Someone is queuing up on our behalf.”

After the king finished speaking, two men dressed as ordinary people walked out of the alley with a bottle of wine each.

The two of them came to the king and Feng Ling’s side. One of them respectfully handed the wine in his hand to the king.

The wine bottle wasn’t big. It was probably 500 grams per bottle.

The king took it and handed it to Feng Ling. “Do you want to try it? If it’s delicious, I’ll get someone to buy some more.”

“I do.”

Feng Ling took the bottle, opened the lid, and immediately took a sip.

The fragrance of the lotus flowers mixed with the fragrance of the wine entered her throat. It was refreshing, sweet, and unforgettable.

After Feng Ling took a sip, her eyes lit up. She said, “This wine is as delicious as the Hundred Flowers Wine.”

When the king heard this, he said to the two of them, “Think of a way to invite the brewer back.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

The king handed the bottle of wine in Feng Ling’s hand to that person and said, “Send the wine to our courtyard.”

The two of them left after agreeing.

Feng Ling wanted to continue, but it was indeed not the time to drink. She held it in.

The two of them continued to shop. Next, whenever Feng Ling saw something she liked, she would tug at the king’s sleeve and say, “Brother Jingzhou, I want that… Brother Jingzhou, I want this…”

Over the moon, the king would buy everything she wanted.

Along the way, the two of them started shopping.

They were like the other couples on the street, not attracting anyone’s attention.

The night market ended at 9 pm. At this moment, everyone who was shopping in the night market walked towards their home. The merchants also packed their shops and stalls, preparing to go home.

Feng Ling and the king walked along the crowd towards the street.

After shopping in the night market for so long, some people would inevitably be alone when they returned.

Especially since after walking out of the main street, many places were dark alleys and unlit paths.

Outside West Street, while walking, a man suddenly wished to urinate. He informed his companion and went behind a nearby tree.

That person had just unbuckled his belt when a ball of black aura wrapped around his body and mouth in the darkness. That person only had time to let out a short cry of surprise before he was knocked out by the black aura and dragged into the darkness.

This happened more than ten times at the same time.

The black aura brought these people into a very concealed cave on the mountain outside the county.

The cave was dark, and only the occasional sound of water dripping could be heard. The people who had been knocked out were still in the darkness, making no sound.

At this moment, an ear-piercing voice sounded. “Boss, we’ve brought back all twelve people tonight. Please check.”

After a while, a gloomy voice sounded. “Not bad. The prey this time is more energetic than the prey in the past few days. She will definitely like it. Hahaha…”

“Ga ga ga… Boss, when are we sending these prey to her?”

“There are already 49 of them. Send them over tonight.”

“Ga ga ga… Boss, when that person’s demonic powers reach the eighth level, she can directly kill their High Priestess and be used by our king.”

“Wrong! Don’t underestimate the ability of the chosen daughter. That person has to at least cultivate to the ninth level of the demonic arts.”

“But His Majesty has only reached the ninth level. If that person manages to reach the ninth level, will he pose a threat to His Majesty?”

“Foolish. Whether or not she can pose a threat to the king isn’t something we can control. When the time comes, we’ll follow whoever’s more powerful.”

“Brilliant. Boss, your idea is really brilliant.”

“Hahaha…”

“Ga ga ga…”

Dong!

The boss shouted, “What is that sound?”

The sharp voice was stunned. “There’s no sound.”

Crack!

Pa!

“Ouch! Boss, why did you hit me?”

“Why would I hit you for no reason!”

Pa!

“Are you courting death? How dare you hit me!”

“I didn’t ~”

“Then who was it?”
