Chapter 78 The Elder's Condition

  Leng Ruo Xue heard this voice and slightly raised her eyelids, only to see a young woman standing in front of her.

  The woman wore a bright red dress, with a face as beautiful as a peach blossom, a sensual figure, and an arrogant temperament, staring at her with some malice.

  Leng Ruo Xue saw this situation and couldn't help but have several black lines appear on her forehead. Who is this woman? Is she getting hit even when lying down? Does she have a face that invites trouble?

  "Cold as snow, are you talking to me? Are you deaf or something?" The woman shouted in discontent.

  The woman's loud and arrogant voice suddenly attracted the attention of everyone in the inner hall, and they all looked over at them with some surprise and uncertainty.

  "So that's Leng Ruoxue? She's even more beautiful than the rumors." A person who had never seen Leng Ruoxue before whispered to the person beside him with a face full of astonishment.

  "Yes! But I don't know what the princess of this household wants to do? Cold as snow, she's not easy to provoke?" The person beside him replied in a low voice.

  Most people were whispering in small groups of three or four, but more were just eager to watch the commotion.

  "Go and call your sister back, Cold Ruo Xue is not someone she can afford to provoke." In a corner of the inner hall, Huo Qing said softly to Ye Xiao beside him.

  "She has always been willful, it's not like I can control her." Yexiao said somewhat lazily, he didn't want to get involved in Ye Mei's affairs.

  Huǒ Qíng saw that Yè Xiāo didn't even bother to care about Yè Měi's affairs at night, let alone an outsider like him. Anyway, Yè Měi's life and death had nothing to do with him.

  "So... you were talking to me? Do I know you?" After a while, Leng Ruo Xue slowly raised her head, her beautiful eyes coldly slanting towards the woman in front of her. The whispers of the crowd had reached her ears, and she hadn't expected this woman to be from the Ye family.

  "My name is Yè Měi, I am the princess of the Ye family." Yè Měi said proudly.

  "What are you to Ye Jia, and what's your relationship with me?" Leng Ruo Xue looked at Ye Mei with confusion, she was indeed a self-loving woman.

  "You... you're just a distant relative of the Ye family's future daughter-in-law, yet you dare to be rude to the direct descendant of the Ye family's young mistress. This is truly not knowing one's place." Night Mei shouted with a face full of displeasure, she extremely self-righteously thought that her status in front of Leng Ruoxue was an unmatched noble honor.

  "Am I the future daughter-in-law of the Night House?" asked Leng Ruoxue, looking at Yao Jiao with a puzzled expression.

  "No, I have nothing to do with Ye Jia at night." The demon said calmly without blinking.

  "You... you lowly born bastard, how dare you look down on our family!" Nuit Feu's anger flared up, and she shouted without choosing her words. These words of hers instantly offended many people present.

  "What's wrong with being a concubine's child? Does Miss Ye think that just because she was raised under her stepmother's name, she is truly the legitimate daughter?" Cold Snow mocked in a soft voice.

  "You..." Ye Mei's body trembled with anger, she had never thought that she would end up humiliating herself instead of Cold Snow. Moreover, she couldn't understand how Cold Snow knew about her origins, which was a thorn in her heart that she had always tried to conceal.

  "Miss Ye, before you go looking for trouble with others, it's best to weigh your own strength first. Otherwise, you'll only end up humiliating yourself." Cold as ice, Ye Xue's gaze swept lightly over the crowd, her tone laced with annoyance, she was truly fed up with these women.

  "You... you..." Yè Měi was so angry that her chest heaved violently, stuttering and unable to speak.

  "The Great Elder of the Feng Clan has arrived!" At this time, someone shouted a sentence, and everyone's eyes suddenly turned to the main seat. No one cared about the intrigue between women anymore.

  "Heh heh, thank you everyone for taking the time to come and see off our Wind family's and Xu family's loving couple. I am the eldest of the Wind family, and since the master is overcome with grief at the loss of his beloved child, I will be fully in charge of today's funeral proceedings." The elder of the Wind family walked up to the front of the main hall, exchanged a few pleasantries, then swept his sharp gaze around the inner chamber. His eyes landed on Leng Ruoxue and flickered slightly, nodding lightly in acknowledgement. When his gaze fell upon Ye Mei, resplendent in her bright red attire, however, it grew dim and unclear.

  "Night brother, why did your daughter come wearing red clothes?" Fire Yi said with a hint of schadenfreude, sitting next to Night Niao. Although the Wind and Xu families were treating the funeral as a joyful occasion, coming dressed in bright red was still too much, wasn't it? Wasn't this openly mocking the host family? He had just seen the Great Elder's face change color.

  "Isn't this a joyful occasion? If it's a joyful occasion, one should dress more festively." Ye Ming said with disdain, the Ye family was already giving face by coming, who dared to say anything negative.

  "Brother Ye is right." Huo Yi obediently shut her mouth and stopped talking.

  After a series of formalities, it was time for the burial. Feng Qingyan and Xu Nuo would be buried together in the Feng family cemetery. However, due to the circumstances, they didn't get a good spot, so their burial site was quite remote.

  "Miss, is this all there is?" asked Feng Da, who was standing at the back of the crowd.

  "I don't know." Ling Ruoxue was attending an interworld funeral for the first time and wouldn't understand these things.

  "It's not over yet." The fire elemental, standing not far from them, walked over and said.

  "What else?" asked Leng Ruoxue indifferently.

  "The banquet, this is the most important thing." Huo Qing explained that the funeral and all that were just for show, after all, it wasn't like they were some big shot. However, the banquet was different, it was the best opportunity for the various families to bond with each other.

  "Hmm." Leng Ruoxue nodded slightly, hoping that something interesting would happen when the time came. Anyway, she was someone who only arrived because she feared the world would be too peaceful otherwise.

  "Ruoxue, why did you leave Fengtian Academy?" Huoqing said with a disappointed expression.

  "What business is it of yours?" The demon coldly retorted, humph! Don't even think about having ideas about his family's Xue Er.

  "I was asking Yuesnow, not you." Huo Qing said with a bad temper, he knew that Ye Chen didn't like him, actually, he didn't like Ye Chen either!

  "Xue Er..." The demon looked at Xue Er with a wronged expression, as if it was about to rain at any moment.

  "I've learned all I can at Feng Tian Academy, so I left. However, I'm still a student of the academy." Leng Ruoxue explained, glancing sideways at the demoness, who was threatening her.

  "So I can still go find you for a spar?" Although it was phrased as a question, Huo Qing's tone was extremely affirmative.

  "It's better if you don't come, you'll only bring me trouble." Leng Ruo Xue directly refused with a tone that didn't give any face, and also glanced at Ye Mei with an implied meaning. She hated trouble and rejected the source of all troubles.

  "Don't worry, I'll handle it." Huo Qing said with a bitter smile.

  "That's your problem." said Leng Ruoxue indifferently.

  "Night sister, I was right, wasn't I?" Water Xun Ran said, looking at the two who were chatting happily, burning with jealousy towards Night Mei beside her.

  "What's so good about that Cold-as-Snow, why does Fire-Passionate Brother like her?" Ye Mei said indignantly, having just been told by Cold-as-Snow about her origins, and in her heart she hated her to death.

  "That vixen, she's the best at seducing men." Shui Xinran said with disdain all over her face. Ever since she accidentally heard that Huo's family had gone to Leng's house to propose after being rejected, she couldn't calm down anymore. Now, Leng Ruoxue had become a thorn in her eye and a stab in her heart.

  Poor Rong Ruoxue, she still doesn't know that she has been made into an imaginary enemy by someone. If she knew, she would definitely stay far away from that big trouble, the farther the better.

  "Everyone, let's go to the main hall for dinner!" The eldest of the Feng family said with a grateful face after the burial.

  Leng Ruoxue followed the crowd to the grand hall, and several people found their seats and sat down. After sitting down, Leng Ruoxue only discovered that the Feng family had actually put their seats together with those of the five major families and the imperial family...

  There were ten people sitting at the table, in addition to the four of them, there was Feng Mo Ran, Huo Qing, Shui Xin Ran, Ye Xiao and Ye Mei, and another one that Leng Ruo Xue did not recognize.

  "Feng Ge, why did you arrange for us to be at the same table?" asked Leng Ruo Xue softly to Feng Mo Ran beside her. Feng Ge should know that she doesn't like to get involved with these people, right?

  "This is what the elder means, saying that we young people should communicate more." Feng Mouyan said somewhat helplessly. His uncle was actually already being marginalized by the elder, and now the entire Feng family, except for his grandfather who had been in seclusion all along, was controlled by the elder.

  "When paths differ, don't make plans together." Lan Ruoxue's voice was as cold as snow, and they were not on the same wavelength, so there was no way to communicate.

  "Xue Er, it turns out that all these dishes are your favorite." The demon on the other side of Leng Ruo Xue said, looking at the dishes coming up one after another.

  "Hmm." Cold as snow nodded and glanced at Feng Mo Ran, was this the great elder of the Feng family trying to be friendly with her?

  "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for coming today. I'd like to propose a toast to everyone." With that, the elderly patriarch of the Feng family downed his cup in one gulp.

  "The old master is too polite." someone said, taking the lead.

  "Really? Really?"

  When everyone was having dinner, Leng Ruoxue, who was sitting at the adjacent table, was secretly sizing up this elder of the Feng family. This elder had a very dignified appearance, with a kind and benevolent face, but his body was slightly chubby and not very tall. However, the sharpness in his eyes could not be hidden, and this elder was also a spiritual master.

  It had been heard that the eldest of the Feng family was someone who didn't get involved in matters, but for some reason, since Feng Da Ge returned to the Feng residence, the usually uninvolved Feng family's eldest suddenly became powerful. First, he confined the young master of the Feng family, and then he stripped away the rights of the acting head of the household. It is unknown what this elder's goal is, but it is said that this elder still treats Feng Da Ge quite well.

  "Miss Leng is dissatisfied with today's dishes?" The eldest of the Feng family walked over, feeling the gaze of Leng Ruoxue.

  "How could this be! I'm very satisfied." The person sitting at the same table eating was dissatisfied, his face as cold as snow.

  "But Miss Leng didn't even move her chopsticks." The elderly patriarch of the Feng family said honestly, with a flash of sharp light in his eyes, this was indeed a cunning little fox!

  "Haha, looking at the majestic appearance of the elder, I forgot to eat." Leng Ruoxue said with her eyes open, not feeling any embarrassment.

  "Miss Leng is indeed eloquent." The elderly patriarch of the Feng family said with a smile, his already small eyes narrowing even further.

  "Thank you for the elder's praise."

  "Miss Leng, take your time, I won't disturb you anymore." The elder of the Feng family said, and returned to his original seat.

  Leng Ruo Xue looked at the full table of dishes, picked up her chopsticks and was about to pick up a piece of fish when someone snatched it away. When she tried to pick up another piece, it was snatched away again.

  "What do you mean?" asked Leng Ruoxue coldly, her face stern and her heart extremely displeased.

  "I don't mean anything, I just want to eat." Yemei said with a smug face, looking at Leng Ruxue with satisfaction.

  "Xu'er, I'll give you some, let's not be petty like pigs and beasts." The demon hurriedly coaxed, and at the same time, he placed a piece of meat on Leng Ruo Xue's plate.

  "No need to argue with pigs, just let them eat more and fatten up for the slaughter." Cold Snow sneered.

  "Haha, haha." Leng Ruo Xue's words made Feng Da unable to hold back his laughter.

  But after hearing Leng Ruo Xue's words, the others, restrained by Ye Jia's face, all held back their laughter, but their constantly shaking shoulders betrayed them.

  "Damn it, who are you calling a beast?" Yemei roared in anger, did this cold-as-snow person want to look for trouble?

  "Don't you know? Is that even a question?" Cold as Snow raised an eyebrow, hinting at something, and glanced at the full plate of dishes in front of Yemi before asking back.

  "Leng Miss, saying a girl is a pig beast, isn't that a bit too much?" said Ye Ming, who was sitting at the next table with some displeasure.

  "Dad, Leng Ruo Xue is looking for trouble with me, you have to stand up for your daughter!" Ye Mei saw that her old dad had come out to support her and suddenly became confident.

  "Is this a typical case of the villain speaking first? With so many eyes staring, who is causing trouble and everyone has their own count, no need to argue." Leng Ruoxue said calmly, not putting this self-directed father-daughter pair in her eyes at all, people are ugly and do more evil, not worth mentioning.

  "Cold as snow, you mean I wronged you?" Yimei said with a look of grievance.

  "Miss, I didn't mean anything, but if you're not afraid of losing face, then go ahead, I won't accompany you!" Cold Snow said with disdain in her eyes.

  "Let's go back!" Leng Ruoxue stood up, glanced at the elder, and then turned to leave. She came to watch a joke, but not to be made a joke of herself.

  "Oh." The three demons hastily stood up and followed Cold Snow together as they left.

  "Xue Er, wait for me." Feng Mo Ran chased after her.

  "Xuě ér, zhēn duì bù qǐ." Mén kǒu, fēng mò rán zhuī shàng Lěng Ruò Xuě děng rén, liǎn shàng jìn shì nèi jiào, tā bù gāi ràng xuě ér lái de.

  Translation:

  "Snow, I'm really sorry." At the door, Feng Mo Ran caught up with Cold Snow and others, his face full of guilt, he shouldn't have let Snow come.

  "Feng Ge, what nonsense are you talking about? This has nothing to do with you, it's the Ye family trying to find trouble for me." Lan Ruo Xue comforted.

  "I'll go back with you." Feng Mu Ran looked at Leng Ruodao calmly.

  "Feng Gege, you are the master." Ling Ruo Xue reminded him, how can the master be as casual as a guest?

  "It doesn't matter, I don't care."

  "Feng Da Ge, Feng Qing Ran is dead. You might become the young master of the Feng family." Lan Ruo Xue said calmly, in her opinion, the elder's actions had already revealed his intentions.

  "Xue Er, I'm not interested in the young master of the Wind family. I've made a vow to follow you forever." Feng Mo Ran explained somewhat anxiously.

  "Feng Gege, I understand, but I really don't mind you becoming the young master of the Feng family." said Leng Ruo Xue.

  "But I really don't want to be the Young Master." Feng Mo Ran said with a slight headache, in fact, he vaguely knew some of the Elder's thoughts, it's just that he had been pretending to be stupid all along.

  "Feng Ge, think carefully! We'll head back first." Leng Ruo Xue advised, not wanting him to regret it in the future.

  "Uh, you all go back first, I'll be back tomorrow." Feng Mo Ran hastily said.

  "Big brother, don't you really want to be the young master of the Wind family?" After seeing Leng Ruoxue walk away, Feng Ao walked out from the shadows.

  "I don't want to." Feng Mo Yan glanced at his younger brother and softly spat out two words.

  "But Father and Mother, as well as the elder, all hope that you can..." Feng Ao Yan was about to speak but stopped.

  Since the eldest brother returned, the parents who were sent to the countryside by the eldest uncle were brought back by the clan elder and restored their identity and status as the second master of the Feng family. The second branch of the family rose again, while the first branch declined under the suppression of the clan elder and others. This situation is the best for them, so Feng Ao knew that his father would not let go of this opportunity, and the position of the young master was settled.

  "I'm only staying at the Wind household for your sake, I don't care what they think. I'll never become the young master of the Wind household, if Father wants to be the head of the house, he can do it himself. But don't use me as a pawn." Feng Mo Ran said directly to Feng Ao Ran, this was probably the first time he had expressed his thoughts so clearly to his younger brother. Having grown up in a wealthy family and experienced many cold realities, he would absolutely not allow anyone to take advantage of him, even if that person were his parents.

  "Big brother, if you don't become the young master, then our Wind family will have no one." Feng Ao said with some concern. Now big brother is the most outstanding person among the younger generation of the Wind family. If big brother doesn't want to become the young master, then the Wind family...

  "Who says no one is here? Isn't there still you? Arrogantly, I am going to follow Xue Er, I won't be with you forever." Feng Mo Ran knew that because of his existence, his younger brother's dependence had become a bit stronger, so he must let Arrogance realize

  The future of the Feng family is not in his hands, he has always regarded himself as a passerby of the Feng family.

  "Big brother, I don't really want to be a junior master either." Feng Ao said frankly, actually, he had this idea for a long time, and the days spent with Ruoxue and others were short-lived, but he really envied the atmosphere between them, it was so harmonious and warm, such an atmosphere could not be felt in a big family.

  "Arrogantly you..." Suddenly didn't expect his younger brother would also have such thoughts.

  "Big brother, can I follow you?" Feng Ao Ran looked at Feng Mo Ran with a face full of expectation.

  The words of Feng Ao made Feng Mo stunned for a moment, and it was only after a while that he came back to his senses. Had he not heard wrongly?

  "Are you sure you want to follow me?" Feng Mo Ran confirmed.

  "I don't want to be a young master, I just want to follow big brother." Feng Ao said seriously, word by word.

  "Arrogantly, both of us will leave, the elder won't agree to it, and our parents definitely won't agree to it." Feng Mo said somewhat helplessly, he could already imagine his parents' angry faces.

  "I believe Big Brother will find a way to persuade the Elder," Feng Ao said with a sly tone, his face revealing a small fox-like smile, heh heh, he knew that as long as Big Brother was willing to say so, it meant he had agreed.

  "Alright, let's just say that if I fail to convince the elder, you'll have to stay in the Wind family obediently." Feng Mouyan brought up the unpleasant topic ahead of time, so as to avoid his brother making a scene later.

  "Uh-huh." Feng Ao nodded obediently, but he would never stay at home and be a good boy, no way, he'd rather run away from home.

  Waiting until all the guests had gradually dispersed, Feng Mo Ran directly went to find the Great Elder.

  In the room of the great elder.

  "Stranger, what brings you to me?" The elder looked at Feng Mo Ran in front of him and asked knowingly.

  "Elder, thank you for your kindness, but I really cannot be the young master of the Wind family." Feng Mo Ran said straightforwardly. With Feng Qing Ran's death, the selection of the new young master of the Wind family would not be delayed and would be decided in the shortest time possible to minimize the impact caused by Feng Qing Ran's death.

  "Do you know what you're talking about?" The elder asked with a expressionless face, but the discontent in his tone was obvious.

  "I know, I hope the Great Elder will be complete." Feng Mo Ran was still very respectful of the Great Elder.

  "Do you know how many people are eyeing this position?"

  "I know, but I really don't fit in." Feng Mo Ran said with a humble attitude.

  "You're not suitable, then no one is." The elder snorted, staring at Feng Mo Ran, a Spirit Emperor with a divine beast actually saying he wasn't qualified to be the young master of the family. Who was qualified? Divine beasts! He didn't even have one!

  "Elder, with so many talented individuals in our family, I'm sure there's someone more suitable than me." Feng Mo Ran said humbly.

  "Alright, as long as you can find me a Spirit Emperor with a divine beast, I'll let you off." The Great Elder said with a deliberate tone.

  “……”

  "Great Elder!" Feng Mo was speechless, did the Great Elder have to make things so difficult for him? Even if he could find someone with qualifications comparable to Huo Qing's, divine beasts weren't something you could easily get your hands on, where was he supposed to go and find a divine beast?!

  "I have only one condition." The elder half-closed his eyes, clearly indicating that there was no room for negotiation.

  "Elder, you rest!" Feng Mo Ran smiled bitterly and backed out of the elder's room, his face full of helplessness.

  Feng Mo Ran returned to his own room and found Feng Ao Ran waiting for him inside.

  "Big brother, how was it?" Seeing Feng Mo Ran return, Feng Ao Ran hastily asked.

  "It's failed." Feng Mo Yan shook his head and said with a helpless expression.

  "What did the Great Elder say?" Feng Ao couldn't help but ask.

  "The Great Elder he..." Feng Mo Ran then told his younger brother about the conditions that the Great Elder had proposed.

  "This condition is really too harsh, how can that be possible?" Feng Ao shouted in a somewhat speechless tone, this is obviously forcing someone to do something difficult! It's really too excessive.

  "Big brother, what should we do now?" Feng Ao's pitch-black eyes stared tightly at Feng Mo Ran, he didn't have any good ideas, he was counting on big brother!

  "Let's take it one step at a time!" Feng Mo Ran said, still without any clear plan.

  "Big brother, actually, I think you can try finding Ruoxue, she might have a way." Feng Ao suggested.

  "This thing, I don't want her to know!" Feng Mo said lightly, he already owed Xue Er a lot and didn't have the face to let her worry about his own affairs.

  "Oh."

  Just as the two brothers were discussing something, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Feng Mo Ran gave his younger brother a signal with his eyes, and Feng Ao Ran understood and went to open the door.

  "Father, mother, how did you get here?" Feng Ao Ran pretended to be stupid and asked.

  "Ao Er, we are here to find Mo Er." Their mother, Su Qi said.

  "Oh, big brother is about to sleep, let's not disturb him." Feng Ao said to his parents.

  "Get out of the way, we have something very important to discuss with your brother." Feng Rui said with a displeased expression.

  "Let father and mother in!" Feng Mo Ran shouted from inside the room. He had heard all three of their conversations.

  "Oh, parents, please come in."

  "You stinky little brat, what are you up to? You actually don't want to be the young master of the Wind family?" Feng Rui stormed into the inner chamber, saw Feng Mo and then, a barrage of accusations rained down on him.

  "I'm not interested in being the young master of the Wind family, so let's leave this position to those who want it!" Feng Mouyan said nonchalantly, and as a matter of fact, he had anticipated his parents' reactions.

  "Do you know what you're talking about? I think you've gone mad from exhaustion. Don't go out for a while, stay at home and behave yourself. When will you stop spouting nonsense, when can I let you out?" Feng Rui said domineeringly.

  "I'm very clear about what I'm saying, it's just that you don't want to admit the fact." Feng said with a tone of disdain. This is what top-notch families call family affection - everything is for the sake of interest, when there is utilitarian value, he becomes a good son, and when he can no longer satisfy their demands, he becomes an abandoned child. Fortunately, he had long since looked at this so-called family affection with indifference.

  During the time he lived in the Wind House, his parents kept saying they would compensate him and showed concern for him, but he was very clear that his parents had not hesitated to use him to benefit themselves. He had become the biggest bargaining chip for his father to rise to the position of head of the household.

  He knew that as long as he became the young master of the Wind family, the elder would support his father to take the position of the head of the household. However, because he refused, it was very likely that his father's position as the head of the household would not be guaranteed either. Otherwise, his father would not have been so angry, and it seemed that the elder had already made contact with his father.

  "You... you ungrateful son, I've raised you to be so big!" Feng Rui bellowed in a loud voice, his face turning purple with rage. He really couldn't understand why the position of Young Master was coveted by so many people, yet the Great Elder insisted on his own son taking it. Such a good thing, and this ungrateful son didn't even want it! It was enough to make him furious.

  "Dad, you've raised me for over a decade and I've been away from home for just as long. But during the time I've been back, you've also benefited quite a bit from using me, so I don't owe you anything anymore." Feng Mo said with some helplessness, if he could, he really didn't want to say such heartless words, but...

  "You... you, got it! Your wings have hardened, I can no longer control you, right?" Feng Rui pointed at Feng Mo Ran, the veins on his face bulging out, panting heavily.

  "Meng'er, how can you speak to your father like that? Look at how angry you've made him. Hurry up and apologize to your father." Su Qi said with a displeased expression.

  Actually, for this eldest son, she had also doted on him before, but after discovering that his talent was not good, she didn't pay much attention to him anymore.

  However, she never dreamed that her eldest son, who had been neglected by her for many years and left home, would return to the Wind House after more than a decade and become so stunningly talented, and even possess a divine beast. This couldn't help but give the couple hope, and besides, the Great Elder had once promised them that as long as Feng Mo became the young master of the Wind House, the next head of the Wind House would absolutely be Feng Rui.

  They both knew that they had been cold to their eldest son for so long, and the eldest son's feelings towards them and even the Feng family had already become very thin. So, the two of them were always thinking of ways to make up for and ease the thin relationship between them.

  However, Feng Qingran's sudden death made things urgent, and the original plan to rekindle their feelings was disrupted. Moreover, Feng Mo proposed not to be a junior master, which made them panic.

  They had discussed with the elder, to behead first and report later, directly announcing this news to the outside world. In this way, Feng Mo would not be able to refuse even if he wanted to. However, the elder was strongly opposed to this idea. The elder wanted Feng Mo to do it willingly from his heart because the elder believed that only when Feng Mo acknowledged his own identity would he seriously consider the interests of the Feng family.

  "Dad, I'm sorry, but I won't be the young master of the Wind family." Feng Mo Yan reiterated, he never expected his parents to understand him, but neither did he want to become their pawn.

  "You..."

  "Old man, don't get angry, let's go back first and let Mo'er think it over himself. Maybe he'll come to his senses." Su Qi patted Feng Rui's back and advised.

  "Alright, you rebellious child, wake up to your senses!" Feng Rui shouted, and with Su Qi's support, he left Feng Mo Yan's room in a huff.

  "Big brother." Feng looked at his big brother with a worried face, sighing, he didn't expect his parents' reaction to be so huge, and he was even a little scared just now.

  "I'm fine, you can go back to bed." Feng Mo Ran said, not wanting his brother to worry.

  "Alright, big brother, you should get some rest too." Feng Ao Ran said as he helped Feng Mo Ran close the door and exited the room.

  In the living room of General Leng's mansion.

  "Miss, as expected, the Xu family really took away Xu Na's body." Feng Da looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a face full of admiration, this was what his man who had been sent to monitor the Feng family just reported back.

  "Isn't this very normal? Not a single person from the Xu family showed up at the funeral, aren't they afraid of losing face? The Xu family has always taken pride in their daughters, now that something like this has happened, who knows if anyone will dare to marry their daughters in the future." Leng Ruoxue analyzed, she looked down on people who profited from selling out their daughters the most, but the Xu family was precisely this kind of family.

  "The young lady is quite polite." Feng Da flattered.

  "Alright, it's getting late, let's all go to sleep!" After confirming the news she wanted to know, Leng Ruoxue said to everyone and turned back to her own room.

  The next day.

  Leng Ruo Xue hadn't gotten out of bed yet when she was woken up by Yao Jiao.

  "You damned brat, if it wasn't for something important, I'd make you regret waking me up." Leng Ruo Xue glared at the demon standing outside the door with a wronged expression, her voice full of anger from being woken up.

  "Xue Er, how can you yell at people like that." Wuu... Xue Er is so fierce, no wonder others don't dare to come.

  "What's the matter, speak quickly, I still want to sleep!" Leng Ruo Xue said discontentedly. She hated being woken up when she was sleeping soundly more than being disturbed while eating.

  "Your parents said they want to see you." The little demon said pitifully.

  "See me? Why see me?"

  "I don't know, they just said there's something very important to talk to you about." The demon explained, looking at the parents with a suspicious gaze, thinking that nothing good would come out of this.

  "Let them wait for me in the living room, I'll be right there." Leng Ruo Xue instructed, since they were Feng Da Ge's parents, she had to give them some face!

  "Yes, my queen." The demon received the queen's command and reluctantly turned to leave.

  She didn't come to the living room until she had finished washing and dressing, and then she did so slowly.

  As she walked into the living room, Leng Ruoxue saw a middle-aged couple sitting on chairs chatting with Yao Jiao, but Yao Jiao was being dismissive and uninterested, looking rather bored.

  "Xuě ér, you came." The demon's sharp eyes spotted Leng Ruoxue, and he was excited. This couple was too troublesome, they were obviously here to gather intelligence, asking him many questions, some of which he didn't even know how to answer.

  Leng Ruo Xue looked at the demon's wronged appearance, somewhat speechless. What's wrong with this demon? It seems like someone has bullied him, does he have to be so dramatic?!

  "Are these two Wind Brother's parents?" Leng Ruoxue walked up to the middle-aged couple and asked.

  "Yes, you are Leng Ruoxue?" Su Qi looked at Leng Ruoxue with surprise and admiration. She had heard of Leng Ruoxue's great name long ago, but she didn't expect the real person to be so beautiful, and also have kindness towards her own son. After seeing Leng Ruoxue, other thoughts arose in her heart.

  "I am Leng Ruoxue." Leng Ruoxue looked at the middle-aged couple in front of her, who were about 40 years old. The man was handsome and tall, with a strong physique, very similar to He Feng's older brother. As for the woman, she was elegant and refined, looking very young. As for their strength, one was a Spirit Emperor and the other a Spirit King.

  Feng Rui's cold and serious face saw Leng Ruoxue, just nodded slightly, while Su Qi was relatively more enthusiastic.

  "Snow, since you call Mo Er 'big brother', can't we also be called 'uncle' and 'auntie'?" Su Qi said enthusiastically while pulling Ruo Xue's hand.

  "Ah, Uncle and Auntie, hello. I'm sorry for the intrusion." Lan Ruo Xue politely said with a hint of helplessness, wondering what they wanted from her since they were Feng Da Ge's parents after all.

  "Hehe, it's okay, we won't mind, after all, this is our first meeting today!" Su Qi said with great understanding.

  "I don't know why Uncle and Auntie asked me to come today, is there something going on?" Leng Ruo Xue asked straightforwardly.

  "Uh, I guess there is something," Su Qi said with some embarrassment.

  "Aunt, just say it directly!" Leng Ruoxue didn't want to waste time beating around the bush. Since they were Feng Dage's parents, as long as their request wasn't too excessive, she would still help out.

  "Snow, you know that too. Qingran just passed away, but the position of Young Master of the Wind Family can't be left vacant for long. So, what the Great Elder means is that he wants Mo Ran to become the new Young Master of the Wind Family." Su Qi explained simply.

  "That's great!" Leng Ruo Xue echoed.

  "This is certainly a good thing, something that many people can't get even if they beg for it, but that silly kid doesn't want it. Tell me, has anyone ever been so foolish?" Su Qi complained to Leng Ruo Xue.

  "Does Big Brother Feng not want to?"

  "Yes, he's unwilling, so we thought of asking you for help, to persuade him. You have a good relationship with him, maybe he'll listen to your words." Su Qi suggested, this was the best plan that the couple had come up with after thinking about it all night.

  "Aunt, it's not that I'm unwilling to help, but I've always disliked forcing others against their will. If Wind doesn't agree himself, I won't force him, and besides, I don't have the right to do so." Leng Ruoxue explained in a gentle tone.

  "If only Snow, we just want you to help us persuade him, not force him. You don't know, this kid is too stubborn. The condition that the elder set out, he simply can't do it." Su Qi said with a helpless expression.

  "What conditions did the Great Elder set?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some curiosity.

  "The Great Elder said that unless Mo Er can find a Ling Huang with a divine beast from the young generation of the Feng family, the Great Elder will not force him." Su Qi said worriedly, her beautiful face twisted in concern.

  "Such conditions are indeed difficult for people." Leng Ruoxue nodded in agreement, but for her, it was not difficult, however...

  "Of course, even if there are exceptionally talented people in the family, where can we find a divine beast? Even the Great Elder doesn't have one!" Mo Er's divine beast was the only one in the Wind Family. Therefore, Mo Er was extremely important to both the Wind Family and the couple.

  "Auntie, then I'll go with you to persuade Brother Feng!" said Leng Ruoxue after some thought. She couldn't just ignore Brother Feng's matter!

  "Good, good." Su Qi heard Leng Ruo Xue's words and suddenly smiled with joy, just waiting for this sentence!

  Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jiao arrived at the Wind Family's main residence together with Feng Wu and his wife.

  "If it's snowing, Auntie won't go in with you guys." Su Qi said somewhat awkwardly.

  "Good." Leng Ruoxue looked at the guards standing outside Feng Dage's courtyard and a hint of understanding flashed in her mind.

  Walked to the windy house door, cold as snow knocked on the door, and then directly pushed the door open with the demon.

  "Xue Er, how did you two come?" Feng Mo Ran was slightly surprised when he saw the two of them.

  "Your parents went to General Manor this morning." The demon said with a somewhat gloomy tone, his face showing great displeasure.

  "Xue Er, don't listen to them, I really don't want to be a young master." Feng Mo Ran hastily explained.

  "Feng Gege, I know, I'm not here to persuade you. Take me to see the elder of the Feng family!" Leng Ruoxue interrupted Feng Mo's words and said.

  "Do you really want to see?"

  "Uh-huh."

  "Alright, but don't agree to any conditions for my sake." Feng Mo Ran said with a warning in his eyes, he already owed Xue Er too much.

  "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

  Feng Yanran brought Cold Snow and Ye Chen to the residence of the Great Elder, and no one blocked his way along the road...

  "You all wait outside, only Miss Leng is allowed to come in." The elder inside instructed.

  "Xue Er..." The demoniac grabbed Bailing Ruoxue who was about to enter the house, and glared at the old man inside with dissatisfaction. This old lecher actually only wanted to see Xue Er alone!

  "Wait for me outside." Leng Ruo Xue said soothingly, and then walked into the house.

  "Elder, what conditions do you have? Speak!" Leng Ruoxue said directly.
