My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 527: First Meeting

After giving out the order, Huang Wenping then turned back to Gui Ying and clasped his hands, "Young Master Gui, there are still matters to attend to. This servant will take his leave first."

"Alright," Gui Ying replied with a faint smile.

Noticing that Gui Ying’s attention had already shifted to the strange box on the table, Huang Wenping did not disturb him further. He left with the rest of the servants, leaving two behind to guard the side room.

Meanwhile, in the Feng Army’s barracks, Fan Wanming strode into the commander’s tent with a serious expression.

Seeing him arrive, Feng Xiyan asked, "How is the situation outside?"

Fan Wanming clasped his fists and reported, "Reporting to the Great General. There were no casualties in this incident."

Hearing this, Feng Xiyan let out a sigh of relief. "This time, the earth dragon’s turning is quite big. What about the condition of the buildings?"

At his question, Fan Wanming replied, "Great General, this subordinate has inspected the city and discovered something strange."

"What is it?" Feng Xiyan asked.

"Normally, when the earth dragon is turning, the ground will crack—even if only slightly. But this time, there are no traces at all," Fan Wanming said with a faint frown.

Feng Xiyan pondered for a moment, then asked, "Have you checked the surrounding areas outside Xiqiang City?"

Fan Wanming nodded. "Yes. This subordinate was concerned that the cracks might not be visible, so this subordinate ordered the soldiers to examine the ground several times. However, aside from a few old buildings, everything else is completely unharmed."

After listening to his report, Feng Xiyan fell into deep thought.

A moment later, he said, "If there are no ground cracks, then this incident was likely not caused by the earth dragon’s turning."

Fan Wanming’s eyes flashed with surprise when he heard that. "Great General, do you think this was an enemy attack?" he asked with a slight frown.

Feng Xiyan shook his head. "This general is not certain."

Staring thoughtfully at the sand map, Feng Xiyan gave his orders. "General Fan, increase security around the city. Also, have General Tan arrange temporary housing for the people affected by this incident."

Clasping his fists, Fan Wanming replied, "Yes, Great General."

After Fan Wanming left, Feng Xiyan grabbed his black sword and left the commander’s tent. Mounting his warhorse, he rushed back to the Great General’s Mansion.

Twenty minutes later, Feng Xiyan leapt down from his warhorse and tossed the reins to one of the soldiers guarding the entrance.

He rushed inside, stopping a maidservant along the way, and asked, "Where is Yun’er?"

The maidservant curtsied, then responded, "Replying to the Young Master, Miss Bai is resting in the main courtyard."

Receiving the answer, Feng Xiyan headed toward the courtyard without delay. However, the moment he stepped inside, he saw Bai Hanyun watching a drama together with Gui Ying.

Sensing Feng Xiyan’s aura, Gui Ying looked up from the laptop screen. Waving lazily at Feng Xiyan, he greeted, "Great General Feng."

Nodding at him as a greeting, Feng Xiyan strode straight toward Bai Hanyun.

Hearing Gui Ying’s words, Bai Hanyun looked up. When she saw Feng Xiyan approaching her, she smiled warmly. "Feng Xiyan, welcome home. Have you finished your work at the barracks?"

Grabbing her hands, Feng Xiyan anxiously checked her from head to toe. "Yun’er, are you alright?"

Feeling dizzy as he turned her around, Bai Hanyun quickly grabbed his arms to stop him. "Feng Xiyan, if you keep spinning me like this, I will throw up my lunch."

At her words, Feng Xiyan finally stopped. Seeing that she truly was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. "It’s good that you are alright."

Noticing something off from his expression, Bai Hanyun asked, "What’s wrong? You looked very anxious just now."

Instead of answering directly, Feng Xiyan asked, "Yun’er, didn’t you feel anything when the earth dragon was turning before?"

"The earth dragon was turning?" Bai Hanyun asked in confusion. She thought for a second, then realization flashed in her eyes. "Ah—you mean the shaking just now? That wasn’t an earthquake or an earth dragon’s turning."

Pointing toward the side room, she explained, "CEO Gui just formed his Golden Core. That caused the disturbance."

After a brief pause, she asked with concern, "Why? Was anyone injured because of it?"

Feng Xiyan shook his head. "There were no casualties. Only a few old buildings collapsed, and those had long been abandoned, so it was nothing big."

Hearing this, Bai Hanyun patted her chest and sighed in relief. "That’s good. If anyone had been injured, Gui Ying would’ve had to pay their medical expenses."

When she said this, Gui Ying replied lazily, "That’s a trivial matter. If someone really was injured because of this incident, this young master would naturally take responsibility."

Bai Hanyun snorted at his words. "Of course you should. You are the one who brought CEO Gui here."

While they were talking, the door to the side room creaked open.

Hearing the sound, Feng Xiyan turned and saw a tall, extremely handsome man step out.

When their gazes met, Feng Xiyan and Gui Xiaoxu instinctively sized each other up.

Noticing Gui Xiaoxu, Bai Hanyun smiled. "CEO Gui, how are you feeling?"

Breaking eye contact with Feng Xiyan, Gui Xiaoxu smiled politely. "Thank you for your concern, Miss Bai. I feel much better now."

Seeing the familiarity between them, Feng Xiyan asked, "Yun’er, who is this young master?"

Remembering that this was their first meeting, Bai Hanyun quickly introduced them.

"Feng Xiyan, this is CEO Gui, Gui Xiaoxu. He is Gui Ying’s cousin and my acquaintance." Lowering her voice, she whispered in his ear, "He is the richest man in my world."

Hearing this, Feng Xiyan looked at her with questioning eyes.

Seeing his questioning eyes and doubt, Bai Hanyun added, "It’s a long story. I will explain to you later."

Turning back to Gui Xiaoxu, she smiled. "CEO Gui, this is my fiancé, Feng Xiyan."

Learning that Bai Hanyun’s fiancé was someone from the ancient world, Gui Xiaoxu looked at the two of them with great interest.
