“It’s only been six months, and she’s already a Level 8 Spiritual Elder now. This is so scary! If she keeps doing this, we’ll all have to look up to her.”
Half a year ago, she was still a Level 5 Spiritual Master…
To get where she was now, she had to go through the Spiritual Grandmaster and Spiritual Elder stages. That was a terrifying speed!
“How did she do it?” Sefiro asked in a shaky voice.
Ranmil stared at Dugu Yamo as well.
So did everyone else around her.
Dugu Yamo was never used to being the center of attention. She was a little flustered, but she still told the truth. “I believe that Duan Chaoge found her ability again when Feng Wu returned to the imperial capital. Feng Wu made this miracle happen.”
“Nonsense!” Sefiro was the first to protest. “That’s all nonsense!”
The others joined in.
“If Feng Wu really is as good as you say, why did she die?”
“Why was she only a Level 7 Spiritual Elder if she was that good?”
“Why didn’t she make the miracle happen for herself?”
In the end, they concluded, “That’s just ridiculous!”
They felt so strongly mainly because —
They didn’t want to admit how capable Feng Wu was.
Therefore, as soon as someone complimented Feng Wu, their first reaction was to deny it.
Just then —
“You’re so loud.”
Duan Chaoge rubbed her eyes and sat up.
Just like Qiuling, she was scared by the crowd as well.
She jumped to her feet and yelled, “Hey, why are all of you standing around me? Where’s Xiao Wu?”
Seeing Qiuling, Duan Chaoge immediately asked her about Feng Wu.
Qiuling relaxed when she saw Chaoge. They were on the same team and were both Feng Wu’s capable friends.
Qiuling said, “Miss Wu left me in the pool before she left. When the tombs collapsed, she risked her own life and came back to get me out. Although I was unconscious the whole time, I knew what was happening.”
Duan Chaoge said, “When I ran into Xiao Wu, that b*stard Zuo Qingxian wanted to rape me. Xiao Wu stabbed him, but he survived.”
Feng Xun said, “Zuo Qingxian wanted to kill Xiao Wu, so I killed him.”
Qiuling said, “Zuo Qingyu wanted to kill me, but Miss Wu saved my life. Zuo Qingyu was severely injured. I wonder if she survived.”
…
From their conversation, one could put the pieces together and figure out what happened in the tomb.
Zuo Qingyu wanted to kill Qiuling, so Feng Wu killed her.
Zuo Qingxian tried to rape Duan Chaoge, and Feng Wu severely injured him.
Zuo Qingxian was killed by Feng Xun when he tried to kill Feng Wu.
…
Zuo Ming and Mrs Zuo stood there with the Zuo family behind them.
But they couldn’t do anything.
Because anything that happened in the tombs stayed in the tombs. No one was allowed to get revenge.
But they couldn’t guarantee that the Zuo family wouldn’t get their revenge in the future.
