Her mother was the first to wake up. She was still muddle-headed and wouldn’t be able to explain herself. However, the more she tried, the more Feng Wu felt sorry for her.
Xiaoqi woke up a few days later as well.
He burst into tears as soon as he saw Feng Wu.
“Sister! ”
Feng Wu patted Xiaoqi on the back. “Don’t cry. I’m here. Tell me what happened.”
Xiaoqi finally calmed down and told Feng Wu what had happened.
Feng Wu was mostly right.
“He told me to call him Father!
“But if he told me to call him father, why did he cut my heart open? He even lied to me, saying that I could live without my heart!
“And there’s that Princess Royal. She’s been hurting, starving, and whipping Mother. Sister, I have to work on my cultivation and kill that woman!”
Xiaoqi went on and on. In the end, when he was exhausted, Feng Wu let him take the calming soup and go to bed.
Sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, Feng Wu frowned and looked furious.
“Are you still mad?” Luo Zilin threw a robe over Feng Wu’s shoulders and sat down next to her. There was a sympathetic look in his eyes.
Feng Wu closed her eyes and clenched her fists. It took her a while to let go.
“I’ve never hated anyone so much,” Feng Wu said calmly. “Back in the Junwu
Empire, Zuo Qingluan destroyed my cultivation ability and stole my True Phoenix Blood, but I didn’t hate her like this. Feng Yanbing and his wife dared to hurt my mother and Xiaoqi like this. I won’t forgive them!”
Luo Zilin put a stack of paper in front of Feng Wu.
Feng Wu asked, “What’s that?”
Luo Zilin said, “Feng Yanbing hurt your mother and Xiaoqi, but they also hurt my family. Do you think the Luo family will take it lying down? The Luo family is one of the four major clans and is as famous as the royal family. We helped them rise to the top back then, but now, they’re using the royal family to oppress us. That’s preposterous!
“Here’s the forces that the Princess Royal owns, and there are detailed records of everyone’s cultivation level. Remember this.
“I’d like to see if the royal family is going to protect the Princess Royal or abandon the Luo family!”
Feng Wu said, “Does my uncle know what you’re doing?”
After all, the Luo family was a well-connected family with many members. If they really went against the Dayan Empire, Feng Wu would be the culprit.
Luo Zilin patted Feng Wu on the shoulder. “Do you think we wouldn’t have gone against the royal family if this incident hadn’t happened? Kiddo, the princess is so arrogant because the royal family has fundamentally changed their approach to us.
“When the founding father took over the empire, he did promise that the Luo family would prosper for generations to come, but he killed all his lackeys. Over the years, as the Luo family declined and other forces rose, the Luo family tried to take back our power.
“But we can’t take it back just like that. No one wants to share what they’ve gained, and my family doesn’t want that either. That’s why we’ve been having conflicts with the royal family for a while.”
Feng Wu clenched her fists. According to what Luo Zilin said, as long as she could use the information well, she didn’t need to use force to kill the princess.
After all, she had annihilated the Zuo family and the Hua family when she wasn’t capable enough..
