Chapter 1133: The Relationship Between the Head of Shang Institution and Feng Tianlan

Hearing her admit it, the head of the Shang Institution heaved a sigh of relief. His stern expression instantly disappeared and he became an amiable older man. “It’s wonderful that you are. I’ve been waiting for you.”
“You said that I have a spiritual force you’re familiar with?” Feng Tianlan looked up at the head of Shang Institution in confusion. The letter her mother left behind did say that she should come to the Shang Institution when she became an adult, but there was no mention that she should look for someone in particular. Moreover, the change in the attitude of the head of Shang Institution made her even more confused.
“Your Spiritual Qi contains both the water and thunder element. This is Shu’s Spiritual Qi, a very unique spiritual Qi,” the head of Shang Institution explained to Feng Tianlan.
“Thunder Spiritual Qi?” Feng Tianlan was surprised. That was someone who cultivated Thunder Spiritual Force. How could her mother master the Thunder Spiritual Force as well? She had never heard of this before, nor had she ever seen it before. She only knew that her mother cultivated a Water Spiritual Force.
The head of Shang Institution nodded and looked up at Feng Tianlan lovingly. “Only Shu has the Thunder Spiritual Force. So the Thunder Spiritual Force in you must be inherited from her, which is why I recognized you right away.”
Feng Tianlan smiled faintly. “I see.”
“Shu once told me that you would come to the Shang Institution after your Coming of Age Ceremony and asked me to take care of you. No matter what, I wanted you to be able to cultivate. Who knew…” The head of Shang Institution was a little choked up. Three years ago, he went personally to fetch Shen Qingdai to the Shang Institution. Who knew that when he went, there would only be a tombstone left of the girl. At that time, he felt that he had let Shu down.
Feng Tianlan frowned slightly. Looking at the head who had red eyes and a very guilty face, she was puzzled. “What is your relationship with my mother?”
“I am your mother’s father, your grandfather.” The head of Shang Institution looked up at Feng Tianlan lovingly. The red rims of his eyes and the guilt on his face showed the sorrow of an older man who had lost both his daughter and his granddaughter. And now, it turned into the joy of finding his lost one.
Seeing his complicated emotions, Feng Tianlan’s lips twitched in confusion. “Grandfather?”
“Yes.” Hearing her call him, a big smile appeared on the face of the head of the Shang Institution. He happily agreed and then cried tears of joy.
“…” Feng Tianlan looked at the man. She was speechless. Didn’t he hear her questioning tone? How could he accept this so readily? This recognition of her was so sudden that she was a little overwhelmed. He needed to slow down. She was only here to look for her parents, not her grandfather!
The head of Shang Institution didn’t notice the speechless expression on Feng Tianlan’s face. He was just like every other nagging older man, telling Feng Tianlan about Feng Shu and the concerns of the Tianfeng Nation.
The name of the head of Shang Institution was Gu Yang and he was the husband of the previous Lady Phoenix. Each Lady Phoenix dominated the marriage, so her children would take her surname, and a new Lady Phoenix would be chosen from among the existing Lady Phoenix’s daughters.
His wife was the eighth Lady Phoenix and Feng Shu was the ninth. Decades had passed. A new Lady Phoenix should be elected now and the only candidate was Feng Yongsheng. The court officials of Tianfeng Nation raised their doubts because only the first daughter of the Lady Phoenix was qualified to be the successor of the Lady Phoenix.
“What exactly is the Lady Phoenix for?” Hearing this, Feng Tianlan could not help but interrupt Gu Yang. She had heard the term ‘Lady Phoenix’ countless times before, but she still could not understand who exactly the Lady Phoenix was supposed to be.
Gu Yang came back to his senses and looked up at Feng Tianlan. “Now that you’re reborn in someone else’s body, I’m afraid you’re not suitable to be a Lady Phoenix anymore. It’s good that you won’t be a Lady Phoenix. Anyone who holds the position of the Lady Phoenix always has a bad end.”
