The louder her voice was, the faster the man moved. They were soon out of earshot.
After Zuo Qingluan was gone, Zuo Chengfeng told Zuo Ming, “We must keep a low profile from now on.”
Zuo Ming nodded, but he didn’t feel that way.
His father had lost to Jun Linyuan, but he could still easily defeat anyone else.
Zuo Chengfeng smiled wryly. “You don’t understand.”
Extremely capable cultivators could sense the battles between other capable cultivators.
Although his battle with Jun Linyuan hadn’t lasted long, many people already knew what had happened.
Other people of his generation would have learned that he was weaker than Jun Linyuan.
They would discipline their family members, telling them not to offend Jun Linyuan or get any funny ideas about the Divine Phoenix Blood.
Feng Wu wouldn’t need to deal with the trouble created by many of the influential forces.
However, Jun Linyuan’s weakness had also been exposed in that battle.
“Jun Linyuan, I don’t believe you weren’t unaffected by my strike.” Zuo Chengfeng smirked.
Meanwhile, Jun Linyuan led the others out of the Zuo family manor.
“Boss Jun, Boss Jun —”
Jun Linyuan went straight back home to his cultivation room.
Retch —
He couldn’t hold it back anymore and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He frowned.
Feng wasn’t here because Emperor Wu had summoned him. Otherwise, he would have followed Jun Linyuan to the Zuo family.
The emperor’s study.
Emperor Wu had summoned Feng.
He started complaining as soon as the steward walked in.
“Feng, is that how you brought up that brat? He doesn’t look like a crown prince at all!”
Feng said, “Your Majesty, he’s just like you.”
Emperor Wu didn’t know what to say.
He couldn’t deny that.
He stared at Feng and sighed. The two men sat down on the stairs, and Emperor Wu asked. “You know about what’s going on with Feng Wu, right?”
Feng nodded.
Emperor Wu asked, “What is that brat thinking? Does he like her? Does he want to marry her? I want an answer!”
Feng said, “The answer to both questions is yes.”
Emperor Wu’s eyes lit up.
“That’s great! I’ll write up the edict announcing the marriage!” Emperor Wu was thrilled. “Yes, they’ve always been engaged, but many people thought that the engagement was annulled.
“I can’t let those people belittle Xiao Wu. I’ve prepared a nice piece, and I’ll put it on paper later. I’ll say the nicest things about Xiao Wu! No one can object to that!”
Feng looked at him in resignation.
Emperor Wu asked, “What’s the problem?”
Feng said, “I don’t think you can make that announcement any time soon.”
Emperor Wu said, “Didn’t you say the answer is yes? What’s the problem?”
Feng said, “Your Majesty, you know what your son is like.”
Emperor Wu’s face darkened. “What’s his problem? Xiao Wu has the Divine Phoenix Blood! If he doesn’t make a move now, it’ll be too late!
“Guess what? I received these today.” Emperor Wu showed Feng a thick stack of papers.
