Chapter 77: Xu Na's Downfall

  Just leaving the palace not far away, Leng Ruo Xue and Ye Chen were stopped by someone.

  "Who are you?" Cold-as-Snow looked at the tall, thin old man in front of her who was blocking their way, dressed in a green robe, and asked cautiously. This old man was actually a Spirit Lord, and if it weren't for her and the demon thinking of leaving on foot, he wouldn't have been able to block them.

  "Everyone calls me the ancestor." The thin, tall old man let out a light sigh and said, his somewhat turbid eyes shining brightly as he stared straight at Leng Xue's icy gaze, because in his heart, he was really curious - how did this little girl have such a big temper?

  "Ancestor? The ancestor of the imperial family?" Leng Ruoxue looked at the old man with some skepticism, the ancestor of the Dongchi Kingdom's imperial family? It seemed that this old man already knew what they had done, otherwise he wouldn't have come to find her. However, even if he did find her, what could he do about it? The throne still belonged to the Li family, it was just a change in person.

  "You're quite sharp, little girl, but you've got a lot of guts, daring to help the prince usurp the throne!" The old man said expressionlessly, making it impossible to read his emotions.

  "Thank you for the compliment, I just felt it was unfair and not worth mentioning." Leng Ruoxue said with a thick face, not feeling any impropriety in helping the prince seize power. However, she couldn't stop thinking to herself, "You're already calling yourself an ancestor, if you can't even guess this much, then you really are blind!" But what did this old man want from her after seeking her out? Was it to avenge his own grandson?

  "Little doll, what should I do with you?" The old man asked, seemingly in a dilemma.

  "It's easy, you get out of the way and we'll each go home to sleep." Leng Ruoxue said lightly, this old man seemed not to be here to avenge his own grandson, because he didn't deliberately release the pressure on himself.

  "Little girl, because of your involvement, the Eastern Pool Imperial Family changed overnight. Is this matter just going to be settled like that?" The old man saw Leng Ruoxue pretending to be stupid, so he directly pointed it out and said that this little girl's ability to pretend to be confused was simply unparalleled compared to Leng Qingtian! They were both cunning foxes, one an old fox and the other a young fox, both very difficult to deal with.

  "Isn't it normal for a new dynasty to rise? After all, you are all from the Li family, who sits on the throne doesn't make a difference. Moreover, don't you think that Li Yuan is more suitable for this throne than Li Xun? Since Li Yuan is the crown prince, the throne will eventually be his, it's just a matter of time. " Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly, she had thought through all possible consequences since she dared to take action, and she didn't think that the ancestors of the imperial family would be furious about something like seizing power, after all, people in high positions have all experienced this before."

  "So I should thank you instead." The old man rolled his eyes in exasperation, this little girl was indeed sharp-tongued.

  "Just don't bother me, as long as you don't come to me with troubles, I won't mind meddling in other people's business." Leng Ruoxue said calmly, this old man was really good at pretending, he clearly didn't want to get involved in this matter, but still came to find her, could it be that he also wanted a spot in the secret realm?

  “……”

  Mind your own business? Will you take care of idle matters? Isn't it because Li Xunnu annoyed you, the old man was secretly resentful in his heart, with a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead. This little girl's face is really not ordinary thick!

  "Anything else? If not, I'm going home to sleep." Reminded Cold Snow.

  "Little girl, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" The old man was very annoyed. Why wasn't this little girl afraid of him at all? His own descendants were like mice seeing a cat when they saw him, not one of them wasn't afraid of him.

  "You're not afraid, you would have killed me long ago, why bother talking so much nonsense?" Leng Ruoxue retorted, she still had this bit of confidence. This old man must have also disliked Li Xun long ago, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared only after they succeeded.

  In fact, Leng Ruo Xue had guessed correctly. As a spiritual being, the old man naturally couldn't be deceived by the empress and her cohorts' actions. However, he didn't intervene to stop them, which was tantamount to tacitly approving of their behavior.

  "Little girl, I've lived for so long and never seen anyone as confident as you!" The old man said with a tone of admiration and regret. Alas! Why didn't his descendants have someone like Leng Ruoxue? That way he would have fewer worries!

  "Confidence is a must." said Leng Ruoxue proudly.

  "Old man, if you don't have anything else to do, I really need to go home and sleep." Leng Ruo Xue added, implying that she was tired and didn't want to chat with him anymore.

  "Alas, let's go!" The old man shook his head helplessly. He also saw that this girl didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family, so he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue and thought to himself that he would speak again when there was another opportunity.

  The old man stepped aside to make way, and Leng Ruoxue and Yao Nu walked straight past him. As for the Li Yuo in Yao Nu's hand, the old man chose to ignore it.

  Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao returned to the General's Mansion, handed Li Yu over to Feng Da, and instructed him to lock Li Yu in the dungeon before going back to her room to sleep.

  The next morning, Leng Ruoxue got up and washed her face before leaving her room and heading straight to the dining hall.

  "Miss." As soon as Leng Ruoxue walked into the dining hall, everyone greeted her.

  "Hmm." Leng Ruoxue nodded and sat down in her own seat.

  "Is today's breakfast so sumptuous?" Cold Snow was somewhat astonished, could they finish eating so much?

  "Miss, these are all made by Wang and the others. They're the result of their studies over the past few days. They've been working hard to get your approval." Feng Da said with a smile, referring to Wang as one of the wounded soldiers. During this time, Miss had arranged for them to learn cooking from the chefs in the mansion, so that when the restaurant opens in the future, they will naturally become the head chefs.

  "It looks pretty good, let me try the taste." Leng Ruoxue picked up a piece of almond cookie and took a bite. The almond flavor was very rich and fragrant, but not too sweet. Then she tried some other pastries.

  "Not bad, breakfast has passed the test." Cold Snow nodded in satisfaction. These future great chefs were carefully selected by her and had a lot of culinary talent. They did not disappoint her.

  "King Big Brother, did you guys hear that?" Feng Da suddenly shouted loudly.

  As soon as Feng Da's voice fell, more than 20 people walked in from outside. The middle-aged man at the front knelt down in front of Leng Ruo Xue, and the people behind him also followed suit.

  "Many thanks to you, Miss, for your kindness to those of us who are inferior." said the middle-aged man gratefully.

  "I've told you before, don't kneel down casually." Ling Ruo Xue reminded.

  "My subordinates don't know how to thank you for your kindness, so please don't refuse, miss." the middle-aged man said stubbornly.

  "Alright, just this once, don't make it a habit." Leng Ruoxue understood their feelings, but when she helped them, she didn't think about wanting anything in return.

  "Feng Da, shouldn't the decoration of the restaurant be about done?" asked Leng Ruo Xue after Wang Da Ge and others left.

  "Don't worry, Miss, it won't affect the opening. At most, it will be completed within a week." Feng Da explained.

  "Hmm." Cold as snow nodded, she was still very reassured about Feng Da.

  "Feng Da, after we've finished dealing with things here, you can all go out and gain some experience!" Leng Ruo Xue said thoughtfully. This was actually something she had already planned a long time ago, but in order to help the soldiers under her grandfather's command, Feng Da and the others' training had been temporarily postponed.

  "Alright." Feng Da hastily replied, after finishing the tasks on this side, he would lead the team to do mercenary missions and strive to make Lianhuo Mercenary Team an A-level mercenary team.

  After finishing breakfast, Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao arrived at the dungeon.

  As soon as they entered the dungeon, a pungent smell hit them in the face. Cold Snow covered her mouth and nose, taking stock of their surroundings.

  The dungeon was much cleaner than she had imagined, but due to the darkness, dampness and poor ventilation, there was a musty smell in the dimly lit dungeon.

  The two of them quickly walked to the cell where Li Yu, the seventh prince, was locked up. Li Yu was still tightly bound and had been casually thrown onto the ground.

  Leng Ruo Xue looked at Li Yu who was still unconscious and a stream of spiritual energy hit his body without hesitation.

  "Ugh, it hurts so much." Li Yu slowly regained consciousness from his daze, somewhat dazedly opening his eyes to look around. Where was this? How did he end up here? And, his head hurt so much.

  "Cold as snow, what are you doing here?" As his gaze fell on Leng Ruoxue standing not far away, yesterday's memories suddenly flooded his mind.

  Yesterday... yesterday...

  "What have you done? What have you done to me? How dare you!" Li Yu Feng roared like a madman, he really couldn't believe that last night's events were real. He, the majestic Seventh Prince, was actually tied up like a rice dumpling and locked in this godforsaken place. No, he didn't want to stay here, he wanted out. He was the Seventh Prince, the exceptionally talented Seventh Prince, he couldn't be stuck in here.

  "Do you still think you are the noble Seventh Prince? You are now just my prisoner." Cold Snow sneered, "This Seventh Prince may have some talent, but he is not material for being an emperor because he can't see the situation clearly."

  "What have you done to me? Where is my mother? My mother would not allow you to treat me like this, and neither would my father. They will not let you off." The Seventh Prince threatened.

  "They themselves are struggling to survive, how can they care about your life and death?" Leng Ruo Xue was really unwilling to break this child's daydream, but there was no way, who made her an honest person?

  "What do you mean? Did the prince also take action against them? No, this is impossible, the prince doesn't have such a big nerve, you're deceiving me, aren't you?" The seventh prince stared at Leng Ruoxue with an expectant face, wanting to see the panic of being caught in a lie on her face, unfortunately...

  "The current emperor of Dongchi is Li Yuan." said Leng Ruoxue calmly.

  "No, you're deceiving me, this isn't true." He didn't want to believe Leng Ruoxue's words at all. The Crown Prince would want to get rid of him? He believed that, but the Crown Prince wouldn't even spare his own father, could that be possible?

  "Believe it or not, suit yourself." For people who refuse to face reality, Leng Ruoxue had always looked down on them.

  "Let's go!" Leng Ruoxue turned her head and said to Yao Jiao.

  "Good."

  "Wait, wait a minute."

  Just as the two were about to leave the cell, Li Yu hastily called out to them.

  "What's wrong, is there something else?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with a slight frown, somewhat impatiently.

  "I... I want to know, how is my mother?" Li Yu hesitated for a moment before asking.

  "What do you think will happen to her?" Leng Ruoxue asked back, Li Yuan may not kill his own father, but he would never let that woman go.

  After finishing speaking, Leng Ruo Xue pulled Yao Nie and turned around to leave the prison cell, leaving behind Li Yu who was stunned.

  "Xue Er, are you just going to lock him up like this?" After leaving the prison cell, the demon asked somewhat puzzled, he thought Xue Er would severely punish that annoying guy.

  "Come back another day, he can't run away, what's the hurry!" Leng Ruoxue said casually. That Li Yu still doesn't have the consciousness of being a prisoner now! So, she plans to lock him up for a few days first, grind his will, and then slowly clean him up.

  "Oh."

  "By the way, you demon, didn't you poison Li Xun? Why is he still..." asked Leng Ruo Xue suddenly, her face full of curiosity.

  "Yes, but that medicine has a time limit, at most 10 days." The demon explained with a sly smile, "Time is not important, what's important is the effect. 10 days is enough to crush a man's confidence."

  "Oh, I see, but your medicine's duration is too short. Sometimes I think about researching one that lasts a lifetime." said Leng Ruoxue thoughtfully.

  "For life? Who are you planning to pass it down to?" The demon's head was sweating profusely, but as long as it wasn't him, anyone else would do.

  "Whoever provokes me will be dealt with." said Leng Ruoxue ruthlessly.

  "Uh!" Is Xue Er being corrupted by him?

  Two people walked and talked, soon they arrived at the garden.

  "Brother, Wind Brother." Leng Ruoxue called out as she saw the two of them playing chess.

  "Xue Er, where have you all gone?" asked Leng Ruo Han, unable to help but ask her own sister.

  "He's gone to jail."

  "Xue Er, that kind of place is not suitable for girls to go." Leng Ruo Han frowned.

  "Uh-huh, I won't go all the time." Leng Ruoxue nodded very obediently. She only occasionally went to pick up Li Yucui and then would go.

  "Xue Er, what are you planning to do with Li Yu?" asked Leng Ruo Han with some curiosity.

  "Of course, I will use the same method to deal with him, and make him experience what I went through back then." Leng Ruoxue said coldly, her eyes gleaming with a fierce light. She had promised to avenge Huo Ruoxue, and she couldn't go back on her word.

  "Xue Er, you can torment him as much as you want, but I think it's best if you don't kill him," Leng Ruo Han suggested. After all, Li Yu was a member of the imperial family, and Leng Ruo Han didn't want anyone to make an issue out of this. Although no one knew that Li Yu was being held in the General's Manor for now, it was hard to guarantee that the news wouldn't leak out over time. Moreover, this could be considered a scandal for the imperial family, and who knows when they would use this as an excuse to turn against them.

  "Brother, don't worry, I won't kill him." Leng Ruo Xue comforted, if she were to kill anyone, it would be Xu Na Er. This Li Yu was detestable, but his crime wasn't punishable by death.

  "That's good." Hearing his sister say that, he also felt at ease. Li Yu dared to treat his beloved little sister like that back then and should be taught a lesson.

  "Brother, you all continue playing, I'll go out for a stroll with Yao Jiao," said Leng Ruo Xue.

  "Don't come back too late." Leng Ruohan reminded with concern.

  "Yes, sir!" Leng Ruo Xue said, and then she and Yao Jiao left the General's Manor together.

  "Xuě er, where are we going?" The demon was very curious, is Xuě er asking him out on a date? He's so happy.

  "I want to go take a look at the restaurant."

  "Oh, let's go then." The demon was not entirely satisfied with Xue Er's response, but it would have to do.

  After walking through several streets with Leng Ruoxue, they arrived at a street that was not very prosperous. The restaurant she wanted to open was located at the far end of this street, and the location was not good. However, it met her requirements perfectly. Moreover, all the surrounding shops had been bought by her as well. She planned to turn the restaurant into an integrated catering enterprise with breakfast, lunch, and dinner services. She believed that under the influence of her restaurant, this street would definitely become the most prosperous one in Fengdu in the future.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, which had been renovated to become grand and elegant. As they were about to enter, they saw the golden sign with the words "De Yi Lou" and were stopped by someone.

  "Sorry, you two, the restaurant is not officially open yet." A man in his thirties with an ordinary appearance stopped them and said politely.

  "Let's take a look first," Leng Ruoxue explained.

  "Sorry, miss. You'd better come back when we're officially open." The man said patiently, without being dazzled by the stunning beauty of Bing Xue's appearance, although his heart was racing because he could tell that these two incredibly stunning people were either wealthy or noble, and not someone he could afford to offend. However, it was his duty, and if he really let them in, it would be dereliction of duty.

  "Alright then, we won't bother you." said Leng Ruoxue with a considerate tone, and pulled the demon king to turn around and leave.

  "Xue Er, are we just going to leave like this?" Yao Jiao couldn't help but ask.

  "Otherwise?" Cold-as-snow slightly raised an eyebrow and asked back, those soldiers among them were not all who had seen her, and she didn't want to reveal her own identity.

  "Nothing, let's go." The demon said after some thought.

  "Huh? You demon, is that Xue Na'er over there?" Leng Ruo Xue asked somewhat uncertainly, gazing at the woman with a floral headdress in the distance.

  "Who?" He didn't see anyone!

  "Let's follow them and see," suggested Leng Ruo Xue, not because she was too curious, but mainly because Xu Na Er wasn't alone, there was a young man by her side, and that man looked somewhat familiar.

  "Good."

  The two quickly walked a few steps and caught up with Xu Na'er and the young man, following them into a civilian house.

  Leng Ruo Xue let Ling cast a stealth spell on them, and they directly followed behind into the house.

  After entering the house, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nie each found a chair to sit down, while Xu Na Er sat directly on the bed with that man.

  Sitting on the chair, Leng Ruoxue carefully sized up the young man. Who was this person? He looked a bit like Feng Dage, but his appearance was more handsome than Feng Dage's. However, his temperament was far inferior to Feng Dage's, and there was a hint of brutality in his eyes. Underneath them hung two obvious black eye circles, clearly a sign of someone who had indulged in excessive desires.

  "Nana, my little treasure, it's been a long time since you came to find your brother." The man hastily pulled Xu Nana into his arms and groped her all over.

  "Qingran, you're really bad, don't be so impatient. Let's talk about the important things first." Xu Na'er smiled and dodged the man's hands and feet, hiding the disgust in her eyes.

  How refreshing! The wind is refreshing! No wonder he looks a bit like He Feng, it turns out that he's He Feng's cousin. But what does Xue Na want to talk to him about? Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but think in her heart.

  "What's more important than our own affairs?!" Feng Qingran said with disdain, his movements becoming even more vigorous.

  "Qingran brother, if you're going to be like this, Nà'er is going to get angry!" Xu Nà'er's beautiful little face stiffened, pretending to be angry.

  "Alright, alright, my good girl, then you speak up, brother is listening!" Feng Qingyan cooed.

  "Listen to me, Qingran Gege, you absolutely won't regret it." Xu Na'er smiled slightly with a licentious expression on her face.

  "Really? Nā'er, if your words can't satisfy me, you'll just have to wait and obediently accept my punishment!" Fēng Qīngrán said with a hint of implication.

  "Qingran brother, you have to believe me, when did I ever deceive you?" Xu Na'er said with a smiling face.

  "Nah, come on and say it!" Feng Qingran urged somewhat anxiously.

  "Hey Qingran brother, Nana knows you like beautiful girls, so I want to introduce one to you." Xu Nana said with a mysterious face.

  "Who is that? Is there anyone prettier than Nana?" Feng Qingyan opened her eyes and said nonsense, coaxing women was his specialty.

  "Hmph! Just by listening, I know that Qing Ran Ge is just teasing me. Who doesn't know that Shui Xin Ran is prettier than me?" Xu Na'er pouted her delicate little mouth, discontentedly saying. From young to old, Shui Xin Ran had always been above her, and now there's even Leng Ruo Xue, the hatred in her heart!

  "Who can compare with my Nai'er?" Feng Qing said with a big mouth, speaking recklessly without drafting, Shui Xiang Ran is beautiful, but I don't think much of him!

  "Qingran Gege, you must have heard of Leng Ruoxue, right?" Xu Na'er asked tentatively.

  "That fool? Of course I've heard of her, and because of her, I was even scolded by the elder. " Feng Qingyan's eyes suddenly turned venomous when he heard the three words 'Leng Ruoxue', humph, if it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been confined either.

  "Qingran brother, want revenge?" Xu Na'er asked gently.

  "Of course I do." He now hates Leng Ruoxue and Feng Mo for being enemies, not to mention that Feng Mo is his greatest enemy, and Leng Ruoxue and Feng Mo are from the same country.

  "Qingran brother, as long as you find a way to make Leng Ruoxue your woman, you can take revenge." Xu Na'er said with a light smile, her eyes full of calculation. Hum, as long as Leng Ruoxue loses her chastity, Ye Chen will not be able to escape her palm.

  "I don't want that fool." Feng Qingyan said disdainfully, even though he had already sobered up, in his eyes, he was still a fool.

  "Qingran Gege, your news is really outdated! Leng Ruo Xue is now the most popular genius on Liang Feng Continent, and she's even more beautiful than Shui Xin Ran!" Xu Na'er explained in a soft voice.

  "Really?" Feng Qingyan was somewhat skeptical. Were they talking about the same person? However, having been locked up for so long and only released yesterday, his information wouldn't be very up-to-date!

  "Would Nana deceive you with such a thing? That cold-as-snow beauty is now known as the number one beauty of the Diamond Continent, even Shui Xiang Ran has to step aside." Xu Nana pouted, saying in a wronged tone.

  "My good Nana, it's not that brother doesn't believe you, you also know that brother has been under house arrest all along. Yesterday the old man just lifted the ban on me, so isn't it normal that brother didn't know about these things?" Feng Qingyan didn't mind bringing up his own embarrassing situation to coax the beauty.

  "Then I'll forgive Qingran brother." Xu Na'er said with a good understanding of human nature.

  "This is my good girl, come, let brother kiss you." Feng Qingyan said with a rising lust in his heart.

  "Wait, Qingran gege!" Xu Na'er dodged, her heart filled with disgust.

  "Nana, is that Cold-as-Snow really as beautiful as you said?" Feng Qingran asked with some doubt, pulling Xu Nana into his arms.

  "Of course! Na'er has grown up so big, but I've never seen a woman as beautiful as her!" Xu Na'er said with some jealousy, her pretty face puffed up.

  "Na'er, do you want Leng Ruxue to become Brother's woman? Is it for the Seventh Prince?" Feng Qingran asked with a hint of jealousy. Seeing the obvious jealousy on Xu Na'er's face, he actually believed Xu Na'er's words, but thinking that Xu Na'er might be doing it for the Seventh Prince, his heart felt somewhat unwell.

  "Of course not, I've long since cut ties with the Seventh Prince. They only came up with this plan to help Qing Ran's brother seek revenge." Xu Na'er said very sincerely. Humph! The Seventh Prince doesn't have the qualifications to make her do this. She was doing it all for that heavenly man. Just thinking about it, she felt excited and her heart itched, like a cat scratching, feeling uncomfortable.

  "My dear Na'er is thinking of her brother like this, and I'm really happy! What does Na'er want me to do?" Feng Qingran asked with a smile, he was the young master of the Feng family, but not a fool, so he didn't believe that Xu Na'er had no other purpose, just wanting to help him take revenge.

  "As long as there's an opportunity, making her Clear Brother's woman would be enough. At that time, she wouldn't even have the chance to refuse marrying Clear Brother. As long as she becomes Clear Brother's woman, how could General Cold not side with Clear Brother? With the Cold family on board, Clear Brother's position as Young Master would become even more unshakeable." Xu Na'er analyzed, having been in a secret relationship with Feng Qingran for so long, she was very aware of his ambition. Moreover, now that the Cold family's status had risen to new heights and their influence was growing stronger, she didn't believe Feng Qingran wouldn't be tempted.

  "Nah said it makes sense, but I don't know Leng Ruo Xue, if I rashly ask her out, she might not agree to meet me!" Thinking of this, Feng Qing Ran felt a bit troubled. Nah's suggestion did make him feel excited, but the conditions for it to happen were not met!

  "Qingran brother, you can use the Wind family's name to host a banquet and invite her at that time." Xu Na'er suggested, she had already thought of this plan.

  "Nah, you're really too clever." Feng Qingyan said happily, relying on her relationship with Feng Mo Ran and Leng Ruoxue, she didn't believe that Leng Ruoxue would not give face.

  "It's all for Qingran gege!" Xu Na'er said with a pout, her face flushing with embarrassment.

  "My Na'er is so considerate of her brother, brother must reward you well." After saying that, he pushed Xu Na'er down onto the bed...

  Always sitting in the chair listening to their conspiracy, the demon was furious and his whole body was trembling with rage. If it wasn't for Xue Er calming him down, he would have gone forward and slaughtered this adulterous couple long ago. How dare they scheme against his Xue Er? They're really courting death! He won't let them off.

  Leng Ruo Xue pulled the furious Yao Jiao out of the house and into the courtyard.

  "Don't get angry, you demon. They won't have a good ending anyway." Leng Ruoxue coaxed, though she was also furious. She had always been calm and collected, and she wanted to think of a good way to kill them - wouldn't that be too easy for them?

  "Xue Er, wait for me, I'll be right back," said the demoness as she turned around and went back into the house.

  "Monster?" Wasn't he thinking of watching a live spring palace? Leng Ruo Xue randomly guessed.

  A few minutes later, the demon walked out from inside with a satisfied expression.

  "Monster, it's over so quickly inside?" Cold Snow Fox asked doubtfully. Feng Qing also seemed useless now? He looked tall and majestic, but unexpectedly he was just a decoration!

  "What's going on?" The demon looked at Leng Ruo Xue with some confusion and asked.

  "Long live the Spring Palace!"

  “……”

  "Xue Er, I'm a pure kid, how can you suspect me of going to see that?" The little demon had a few black lines on his forehead, and his small face was slightly red.

  "What are you going in for?" Leng Ruoxue was very curious. The demon abandoned her and went back, wasn't it because he was afraid she would see?

  "Uh, I added something for them, just to help things along." The demon said with a somewhat unnatural expression on his face.

  "You want him to as well..." Just thinking that the demon might do this, Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but laugh. If it happened at a critical moment and suddenly didn't work, it would be a huge blow to any man!

  "No, no, how could I do that?!" The demon thought to himself that he was a very kind child, so he wouldn't ruin other people's good things.

  "What isn't? What is it?" Leng Ruoxue couldn't think of what was supposed to be exciting.

  "I've added something that will make them unstoppable." The demon said with a mysterious face, his face written all over with 'I'm a good guy!'

  "Could it be..." Leng Ruoxue was speechless, cold sweat continuously dripping from her forehead. This demon, really wasn't ordinary in terms of being heavy-tasted!

  "You said, how did you get that thing?" Leng Ruo Xue suddenly remembered something and grabbed the demon's clothes, interrogating him.

  "This... this was given to me by Mu Lei, for self-defense." The demon rascal betrayed someone without hesitation.

  "Is this self-defense?" Cold Snow Beauty's beautiful eyes glared at him, did he think she was a three-year-old child? She wasn't that easy to deceive!

  "Yes! Not only can it be used for self-defense, but also to punish bad people." The demon girl replied hastily.

  "Xue Er, you have to believe me, I won't use this thing for bad things." The demon guaranteed, with a very sincere expression on his face.

  "Alright! I'll trust you this time, let's go back!" Leng Ruoxue said with some disgust, the sound from inside the house was loud and piercing.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao returned to General's Manor and rushed straight to the flower garden.

  Feng Da and others were preparing dinner.

  "Miss, you're back just in time, we're about to have dinner." Feng Da said hastily upon seeing Leng Ruoxue.

  "What's for dinner?" asked Leng Ruo Xue, unable to help herself. Looking at the setup, it probably wasn't going to be hot pot again, was it? Didn't they just have that yesterday?

  "Hot pot! Wang and his friends made it, they want us to try the flavor." Feng Da explained.

  Want to be a guinea pig again? However, it seems that it should still be okay, Leng Ruo Xue was secretly pleased in her heart.

  When everything was ready, Leng Ruoxue and the others found their seats, but everyone looked at each other, no one moved their chopsticks.

  "Why isn't anyone eating?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with some curiosity as she looked at everyone.

  "Miss, you eat first, we'll only dare to eat afterwards." Lin Yuan said with a smile, but his words were met with several disdainful glances.

  "It looks good, let's eat quickly!" Leng Ruo Xue said nonchalantly. Humph, don't think she didn't know, this bunch of guys were clearly trying to make her the guinea pig first. However, what they didn't know was that for hot pot, besides the bottom of the pot, seasonings were more important.

  Watching Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jie constantly eating meat, Feng Da and others swallowed their saliva and started as well. To be honest, it's not that they didn't give Wang Dage and the others face, but rather Wang Dage and the others had only learned how to make hot pot yesterday.

  "If you're worried, you can just drink some plain water." Leng Ruoxue reminded kindly.

  "Hehe, don't worry, miss, we're worried about nothing!" Feng Da said somewhat awkwardly.

  "Hurry up and eat! Eat a bit more." said Leng Ruoxue with concern.

  In this way, everyone in order to show their bravery, ate the most was mala pot, as a result, the next day, except for Leng Ruoxue, Ye Chen, Leng Ruhanshen and Feng Mo Ran, all people had diarrhea.

  "Miss, why don't you have anything?" Feng Da, who had been pulling his stomach for three days, appeared in front of Leng Ruo Xue and others with a weak body, crying with a sad face, and said pitifully.

  "We're really good people!" Leng Ruo Xue laughed so sweetly! Hum, just letting you guys pull your stomachs for three days is already her showing mercy.

  "Uh, it's a matter of character." The demon agreed with Xue Er's words one hundred percent.

  "Feng Ge, you continue!" Leng Ruo Xue turned her head and said to Feng Mo Ran.

  "Good."

  "Xuě ér, Xú Nà ér and Fēng Qīng Rán are dead, and they died together." Fēng Mò Rán told the news he had heard to Xuě ér and others, his face slightly unnatural.

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao exchanged a glance, but neither of them continued the conversation.

  "How did they die?" Feng Da asked curiously, how could these two people die together?

  "Hmm, this... is excessive indulgence." Feng Mo Yan said somewhat uncomfortably.

  "Haha, I knew that Xu Na wasn't a good thing, but is dying like this too easy for her?" Feng Da laughed and said. He had always been unfavorable to Xu Na, let alone the woman was also Miss's enemy, so when he heard the news of the woman's death, he only felt relieved.

  "Feng Ge, has your family reacted in any way?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with some curiosity, the two great families would never allow such a scandal to spread.

  "After the Feng family found out about this matter, they blocked the news at the first time, but it still spread out. I estimate that now on the entire Lingfeng continent, at least half of the people know about this matter." Feng Mouyan said somewhat helplessly, good news doesn't go out the door, bad news spreads for a thousand miles, and this scandal is spreading faster than they imagined, almost at the speed of light.

  "This is the celebrity effect!" exclaimed Leng Ruo Xue.

  "Xue Er, the Wind family will hold a funeral for Feng Qing Ran three days later." Feng Mo Ran continued, the Great Elder also asked him to invite Xue Er, but he really couldn't bring himself to say it.

  "With something like this happening, you still want to hold a funeral?" Leng Ruoxue said incredulously, "You've already secretly buried him, what's the point of holding a funeral now? Aren't you afraid of losing even more face?"

  "Xue Er, you don't understand this. It's precisely because of what happened that we need to make a big deal out of it. After all, the two of them are the young master of the Feng family and the most favored miss of the Xu family. The Xu and Feng families can use their love for each other as an excuse to cover up this scandal. If they quietly handle the two of them, that would be truly shameful. Later on, it will make even more people laugh." Leng Ruo Han explained.

  "Oh." The people in this world, their way of thinking is indeed different from others. In fact, Leng Ruo Xue thought that handling the matter in a low-key manner would be better, after all, any scandal cannot withstand the test of time. As time passes, no one will care about such things anymore. But with the Feng and Xu families making such a big fuss, others probably can't even forget about it if they want to.

  "Xue Er, the elder has invited you to attend a funeral three days from now." Feng Mo Ran said hesitantly.

  "Oh, don't worry, Wind Brother, I'll go." Leng Ruoxue replied very readily. Even if she wasn't invited, she would have found a way to attend anyway. She wouldn't miss the excitement for nothing, and besides, many aristocratic families would likely be attending that day, so it was also an opportunity for her to get familiar with some people.

  "But..." Feng Mo suddenly felt a little worried.

  "Feng Ge, don't worry, I won't bully them." said Leng Ruo Xue with a teasing tone.

  "Xue Er, I'm not worried that you'll bully them, I'm afraid they'll bother you." Feng Mo Ran explained.

  "Don't worry, I'm here." The demon guaranteed that with him around, anyone who dared to bother Xue'er would be killed without mercy, and also drugged!

  Three days later.

  Leng Ruoxue, Ye Chen, Feng Da and Lin Yuan arrived at the Wind family's main residence to attend the funeral.

  In a corner outside the main gate of the Feng family's mansion.

  "There are so many people." Looking at the people coming and going, Lin Yuan exclaimed in surprise, how many people did the Feng family invite? It's indeed worthy of being a top-notch aristocratic family.

  "This isn't just a guest of the Wind family, there's also someone from the Xu family." Leng Ruoxue explained, in order to make it clear that the two were absolutely in love, their funerals were held together and they were buried together. However, this way of covering up the truth was unknown how many people would believe.

  "Miss, when are we going in?" Feng Da was somewhat perplexed. Why wasn't the missus going in? What's so great about this place anyway?

  "What's the hurry? It's not time yet!" Leng Ruoxue said discontentedly, glaring at Feng Da.

  "Oh!" The young lady is so fierce!

  "Let's go in!" After watching for a while longer, Leng Ruoxue saw that almost everyone had arrived and said.

  Leng Ruoxue and others were led into the inner hall by a servant with an invitation card, and they casually found a seat to sit down.

  "Are you Leng Ruoxue?" A very unfriendly voice sounded in the ears of Leng Ruoxue and others.
