Chapter 25 [25] Deep Roots of Love
"That's right, Ah Yan. There were many suspicious points about your parents' death. Grandpa ordered people to investigate secretly, but unfortunately there is no useful information so far."
"It is Grandpa who is sorry for your parents, and your unborn brother or sister."
Feng Xiaotian punched the wall hard. This will be a pain in his heart forever.
"Grandpa, this is not your fault. Don't worry, I will definitely find out what happened back then and what the truth is."
Feng Lingyan's cat-like eyes were filled with tears as she comforted Feng Xiaotian and secretly swore that she would find out the truth of the matter.
Feng Xiaotian nodded and looked at Feng Lingyan with relief: "Ayan, it's all Grandpa's fault. I believed that rebellious son would treat you well, and I couldn't leave him at the border."
"I've made you suffer so much. I've already submitted my resignation to the Emperor. For the rest of my life, I just want to stay with Ah Yan."
Feng Xiaotian, with tears in his eyes, said that after going through so many things, he felt that he was worthy of the emperor and the people of Tianchen Kingdom, but he was not worthy of Feng Lingyan.
"Grandpa, can we protect each other?" Feng Lingyan knew very well what Feng Xiaotian was thinking. She needed him and couldn't live without him. She also didn't want her grandfather to think that he was old and useless.
Feng Xiaotian reached out and rubbed Feng Lingyan's head, and quickly changed the subject: "My dear Ah Yan, Grandpa has forgotten the important matter again. Come on, this is the blood jade bracelet your mother left for you."
"It needs your blood to activate it. Try it on and see."
Feng Lingyan looked at the blood jade bracelet in astonishment, feeling inexplicably familiar, but it was clearly the first time she saw the blood jade bracelet.
"Okay, since it was left to me by my mother, it must be a good thing." Feng Lingyan smiled faintly, quickly pierced her finger with a silver needle, and dripped her blood on the seemingly ordinary blood jade bracelet.
The next moment, the blood jade bracelet suddenly emitted a dazzling red light, and circles of golden runes formed special circles in the air, interlocking with each other. As the circles formed by the red light and golden runes disappeared, the blood jade bracelet flew to Feng Lingyan's wrist as fast as lightning.
Rich spiritual energy instantly filled the secret room and enveloped Feng Lingyan, leaving her no time to say anything. She sat down on the ground and used the method taught by Gong Yanchen to guide the spiritual energy into her body, tempering her meridians over and over again.
Seeing this sudden change, Feng Xiaotian opened his mouth in shock, but quickly stood aside to protect Feng Lingyan, not daring to even breathe.
On the other side, Gong Yanchen, who had just ordered people to prepare the items needed for Feng Lingyan's apprenticeship ceremony, sensed something. His phoenix eyes flickered slightly, and he wished that time would stay in the human world forever, so that he and she could live together, have children, and lead an ordinary but happy life.
"Your Majesty, Goddess Yun Yao will visit you tomorrow. I wonder when you will be free to meet her?" Qing Yan had always felt deeply in love with Your Majesty whenever she thought of Goddess Yun Yao. If she knew that Your Majesty fell in love with a good-for-nothing girl from the human world, would he destroy that girl to ashes?
"No! Qing Yan, who allows you to make decisions on your own without my permission?" Gong Yanchen's charming phoenix eyes suddenly turned cold, the tenderness in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and his voice was so cold that it made Qing Yan tremble.
"This subordinate deserves death! It was the Goddess Yunyao who said that she had an important matter to tell Your Majesty, and no one else could know about it. This subordinate acted on his own, please punish me, Your Majesty."
Qing Yan quickly knelt on the ground, and his dislike for Feng Lingyan increased a little more. Goddess Yun Yao, she is an existence that many single male gods in heaven want to marry but are afraid of blasphemy. How can Feng Lingyan compare with her?
"Get out!" Gong Yanchen flipped his palm and slapped Qing Yan away, who fell to the ground with blood spitting out of his mouth.
Qingyun quickly appeared and pleaded for Qingyan: "Your Majesty, please give Qingyan a chance. He just meant well but did something bad."
"After all, High Goddess Yun Yao saved Your Majesty, Qing Yan just couldn't bear to see her sad."
Feeling the powerful pressure from Gong Yanchen, Qingyun's soul was trembling. But if he didn't plead for mercy, and His Majesty severely punished Qingyan, he would be in danger of death this time. "Hehe, Qingyun, do you also want to teach me how to do things?"
"Since you are pleading for him, you should go and quell the trouble he has caused."
"I don't have time to see anyone except the little thing!"
Gong Yanchen left with a wave of his sleeves, leaving behind no cloud at all.
Qing Yan and Qing Yun looked at each other, they collapsed on the ground. The moment Gong Yanchen's pressure was removed, they felt as if they had walked through the gates of hell.
At the same time, at the gate of Lingyun Garden in Feng Mansion, Feng Lingxue felt inexplicably flustered. She couldn't help biting her lip and asked the servant at the door to go in and report that she had something important to discuss with Feng Xiaotian.
The servant did not dare to delay, so he quickly asked Feng Lingxue to wait for a while so that he could report back to Feng Xiaotian.
Feng Lingxue nodded and waited quietly. She always felt that she should do something at this moment, otherwise she would be in big trouble.
Little did she know that Feng Lingyan had reached the most critical juncture in her cultivation. If she took a step forward, her cultivation would reach a higher level, but if she took a step back she would go astray and be doomed.
The servant hurried into Lingyun Garden and gently knocked on the door of Feng Xiaotian's room, which frightened Lian Qiao, who was staring at the door.
"Why are you disturbing the old general? Don't you know that the old general is practicing at this time?"
Lian Qiao mustered up his courage and spoke quickly and firmly.
The servant wiped his sweat and said with a wry smile, "Miss Lianqiao, the eldest lady is at the gate of the courtyard asking to see the old general, saying that she has something important to report. I am afraid of delaying things, so I want to come and ask."
The servant scratched his head and felt terrible. Yes, how could he forget such an important thing?
"Go tell the young lady that the old general is meditating and practicing now. When he finishes his practice, he will send someone to summon her."
Lian Qiao was so nervous that she couldn't even breathe, but she still gritted her teeth and spoke to the servant in a forceful manner. She was afraid that if she spoke too softly, the servant would act presumptuously.
"Okay, thank you Miss Lianqiao. If it weren't for your reminder, I would have gotten into big trouble today."
The servant cursed Feng Lingxue in his heart, nodded and bowed quickly, ran to the gate of the courtyard, and told Feng Lingxue with confidence that the old general was currently practicing and had no time.
At that moment, Feng Lingxue wanted to kill the dog slave in front of her, but she usually had a dignified and virtuous image and she could not lose her composure.
"Well, when Grandpa is free, please come and let me know. I wonder if my third sister is in Grandpa's room?"
Feng Lingxue said with a smile, and took advantage of the servant's inattention to ask him unexpected questions.
The servant nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, the third young lady is indeed in the old general's room. What are you doing, eldest young lady?"
The servant suddenly realized something and was about to step back, but Feng Lingxue pressed a point on his acupoints and he couldn't utter a word. Feng Lingxue's beautiful eyes were filled with deep hatred and she flew up and broke into Feng Xiaotian's room.
