Therefore, he made a request to kick Feng Wu out of the Feng clan.
In fact, it was a matter of formality.
The three elders had indeed considered Feng Wu as their future successor, but they gave up on her after she lost her ability.
They had been living here for so long that they knew nothing of the outside world or of Feng Wu’s real talent. Feng Yanfeng was confident that they would believe everything he said.
He could make the decision to disown Feng Wu all by himself, but to disown the entire second branch, he would need the three elders’ approval.
The reason he gave to disown the second branch was the beautiful lady. He claimed that her beauty would bring disaster to the whole clan.
It was such a major issue in the Feng clan that Feng Yanfeng didn’t have the authority to make the decision on his own.
Of the three elders, Elder Breeze was neutral, Elder Jing was against the idea, and Elder Grain didn’t mind disowning Feng Wu and her family.
Usually, they wouldn’t bother to discuss such a thing and would have said yes without hesitation.
But Elder Jing wouldn’t have it this time because he was the one who had tested Feng Wu’s talent back then.
He said, “Other things aside, I don’t believe that Feng Qi is more talented than Feng Wu.”
Elder Grain said, “Feng Wu has lost her ability, so just forget about her.”
Since neither Elder Breeze nor Elder Grain would give in, Elder Breeze made the call. “In that case, just let Feng Qi compete with Feng Wu, and we’ll have the answer.”
To lure Feng Wu to the restricted area, they used Chaoge as bait.
While they watched the image in the well, Chaoge sulked on the side.
Elder Jing was pleasantly surprised. He pointed at the well and said, “Look! Feng Wu is doing great! She was only surprised at first. After that, she’s been perfectly calm.”
Elder Breeze nodded.
“This is a Level 7 formation, and even Feng Yanfeng can’t get in. However, Feng Wu has been solving the formation as she walks. None of the traps have been a problem for her.”
Elder Grain didn’t like Feng Wu. Hearing that, he frowned and asked, “How can it be possible that she knows how to solve the formation on her own? Jing, you didn’t tell her how to do it, did you?”
Elder Jing threw a dirty look at Elder Grain. “You were the one who snatched the girl. I’ve never had any contact with Feng Wu. If someone told her how to solve it, it would be you.”
That shut Elder Grain up. There was no way that he could have told Feng Wu that information.
“But how did she do it? Even if she started cultivating when she was in her mother’s belly, she still can’t have reached Level 7. Is she even human?” Elder Grain was perplexed.
Chaoge was lying on the ground as she listened to them. She didn’t like Elder Grain’s tone.
“Hey, old man, watch it!” Chaoge was restrained, but though she couldn’t move, she could still talk. “What do you mean by that? Of course Xiao Wu is human! She’s just amazing like that! Are you jealous?”
Elder Grain didn’t expect to see her wake up so soon and was taken aback. He was infuriated when he heard what Chaoge said..
