Gu Yang, who had been nagging, was stunned for a moment. The serious expression on his face instantly turned gloomy, sorrowful, and resentful. His hands gripped the armrests tightly and his veins popped out. The atmosphere in the room instantly sunk.
Feng Tianlan could hardly breathe. She was full of doubts about this sudden change and grew anxious at the same time. “What’s wrong with my parents?”
Hearing the slightly breathless voice of Feng Tianlan, Gu Yang came back from his hatred. He turned his head to look at Feng Tianlan, all the negative emotions disappearing from his face, leaving behind only loving-kindness. “Shu’er has gone insane!”
“Why?” Feng Tianlan asked. She had heard from Feng Yunsheng that her mother had gone mad, but she didn’t know what had caused it, since Feng Yunsheng did not know either.
Gu Yang clenched his fist tightly again. The veins under his sagging skin rippled while his loving expression instantly grimaced. He squeezed the words out of his teeth, “Because she was the Lady Phoenix, because of the previous—”
When he spoke up to here, he stopped abruptly. Apparently, he was reluctant to say anything more.
“Because of what?? And what does this have to do with the Lady Phoenix?” Feng Tianlan frowned. She could feel Gu Yang’s immense hatred.
Gu Yang loosened his grip and looked up at Feng Tianlan. “Dai’er, you can hardly feel get it just by my describing it with words. When you see your mother, you will understand naturally.”
“Why can’t I know it now?” Feng Tianlan was a little annoyed. Why did he stop halfway through his sentence? It was so frustrating.
Looking at Feng Tianlan, who was anxious, Gu Yang was grateful that he had not blurted it out just now. He only gave her a fatherly smile. “You’re too weak right now, knowing won’t do you any good. When you’re strong enough, then it’ll be time to know the truth.”
It wasn’t that he looked down on Dai’er, but that with only the spiritual force of an Earth Supreme, she was too weak to do anything in revenge.
Hearing the words “too weak”, Feng Tianlan’s annoyance disappeared instantly. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.
She was not an impulsive person. Before she was confident of herself, she would not make a move. Now, she could only keep a low profile. She had to strengthen herself as soon as possible so she could follow in Mobai’s footsteps and fight alongside him.
Seeing that Feng Tianlan calmed down so quickly, Gu Yang was full of praise for her. “There are some things that I can only tell you in the future. But don’t worry, I’ll have you become a Prime Supreme in half a year. By that time, you will have the ability to enter the Heaven Soul Pagoda and the Earth Soul Pagoda and reach the Supreme level when you pass through. When you’re stronger, you’ll know everything.”
“Okay.” Feng Tianlan nodded. Half a year was a short time for her. It would pass after she closed her eyes to cultivate two or three times.
Gu Yang said a few more words to her before bringing her out of the study room. He looked at the teachers who were already waiting outside and said in a low voice, “From today onwards, I will take Shen Qing…”
“Shen Lan!” Feng Tianlan corrected Gu Yang in time to keep him from spilling the beans.
“Shen Lan!” Gu Yang took a look at her and quickly corrected himself. “I’ll take Shen Lan as my disciple.”
When he said that, Deng Hu and the other teachers stared at Gu Yang and Feng Tianlan in disbelief.
The Head accepted another disciple?
Didn’t he claim they would only accept one disciple?
“Master, Shen Lan’s aptitude is mediocre. She’s only a Middle-stage Earth Supreme now. I’m afraid she’s not qualified to be your disciple,” a middle-aged man dressed in dark red commented.
Did he just say Feng Tianlan’s aptitude is mediocre?
If the public knew about this, they would definitely laugh at that. She had used more than three years to upgrade from a Gathering Spirit to a Prime Supreme, which made her the first person in the Xuantian Continent to achieve that. If her aptitude were average, then everyone else was trash.
