Outside the Fengzhuihou Manor, several people stood waiting.
They were waiting to see if Fengzhuihou dared to come out and receive the letter, and if Chen Jiuyang's letter contained any tricks.
Everyone waited.
After Fang Bahua's voice faded, there was no movement from Fengzhuihou Manor.
A moment later, the Sword Bearer appeared before Fang Bahua with a dark expression: "Give me Chen Jiuyang's letter to read."
"Lord Sword Bearer!" Fang Bahua immediately bowed and respectfully took out his young master's letter and handed it to the Sword Bearer.
The Sword Bearer opened the letter Chen Jiuyang had written to Fengzhuihou Manor. It contained no other tricks. The Sword Bearer snorted coldly, "This brat knows his limits. I'll take this letter to Fengzhuihou. You may withdraw now."
"Yes, Lord Sword Bearer." Fang Bahua obediently withdrew and went to report the situation to Chen Jiuyang.
Inwardly, he was afraid that Chen Jiuyang might take action against Fengzhuihou, which would be treason.
The Sword Bearer leaped into Fengzhuihou Manor and, after a short while, was escorted out of the main gate by Fengzhuihou himself.
"Tsk, this Fengzhuihou is truly a coward, afraid to even receive Chen Jiuyang's letter."
"With Chen Jiuyang and the Forty-Eight Hou cutting off their medicinal and cultivation resources, how could Fengzhuihou not be a coward?"
"Without cultivation resources, isn't Fengzhuihou destined to fail in his bid for kingship?"
"Heh... heh heh..."
"I'm rather curious what Chen Jiuyang wrote to him."
What Chen Jiuyang wrote to Fengzhuihou was simple. Chen Jiuyang learned from the Sword Bearer and Xi Butui that Feng Hanhou's breakthrough to the Heavenly Realm would surely fail, and therefore Fengzhuihou would also be unable to break through to the Heavenly Realm.
He simply told him honestly that once the conferment of kingship was over, he should wash his neck and await Chen Jiuyang's execution!
The Sword Bearer was also afraid that Chen Jiuyang might break the rules, so he rushed over to check if the letter contained any trickery.
The emergence of such an unparalleled genius as Chen Jiuyang from Feng Province made many people both happy and worried.
Chen Family, Suzhou.
Chen Jiuyang held a phone to his ear. On the other end was Fang Bahua reporting the situation. Chen Jiuyang said calmly:
"Good, I understand. Uncle Fang, thank you for making this trip. Rest at my master's house for a few days and prepare some cultivation resources for yourself before returning to Suzhou. You've been in the Earth Realm for some time, and it's time I taught you an Earth Realm cultivation technique to enhance your strength."
"Yes, Young Master!" Fang Bahua replied calmly, his heart undisturbed.
Chen Jiuyang would definitely teach him a technique. If he had been excited before, it was out of a sense of receiving a favor. But now, he felt he could no longer keep up with Chen Jiuyang's pace.
After hanging up the phone.
A cold glint appeared in Chen Jiuyang's eyes: "Then, it's time for me to go to the Ning Family of Jiangnan Sect to seek justice."
"Young Master, I can handle this for you. Please cultivate with peace of mind, Young Master," Granny Hui said respectfully, standing beside Chen Jiuyang.
"No," Chen Jiuyang shook his head. "If you make a move, my connection with the True Demon Sect will be exposed. This will alert the enemy and affect my conferment of marquis affairs."
"Besides, my woman was poisoned by the Ning family. I must personally avenge her."
Ji Lengyue said from the side, "Jiuyang, when you go to the Ning family later, do not destroy the account books and electronic equipment on a large scale. If you can uncover deeper clues within their Ning family, you can establish more merits."
Chen Jiuyang gently cupped Ji Lengyue's chin with one hand and smiled, "My woman is truly considerate, always thinking of many thorough matters for her man."
"Hmph!" Ji Lengyue had a fiery temper. Receiving such an ambiguous provocation from Chen Jiuyang, her heart could not bear it. She turned her head away, "Then I won't bother with you."
Chen Jiuyang laughed heartily, then stood up and went out.
After Chen Jiuyang left, Granny Hui said to Ji Lengyue, "Miss Ji, my young master is on the path to becoming a marquis, so there is no distinction between a main wife and a concubine."
"I misspoke earlier. I hope Miss Ji will not take it to heart."
"It's nothing." Ji Lengyue was carefree and did not take the matter to heart. Although Granny Hui's tone was harmonious, she always gave her a sense of extreme danger.
She did not want to make an enemy of such a dangerous person.
Granny Hui said, "Miss Ji, since you were previously a constable of the Six Doors, you can also follow the path of national destiny. Otherwise, you will gradually fall behind the young master."
Ji Lengyue's expression was complex. She gently bit her red lips. She knew about this matter in her heart.
"You don't need to worry about this." At this moment, the Chen family patriarch walked out from the side. "Lengyue is a good girl, and our Chen family will naturally not neglect her. I have already contacted my Shu Mountain Emei Sect, and the current sect leader of Emei has agreed to take this girl Lengyue as her true disciple."
"Lengyue, are the preparations ready? You will be going to Emei Sect to learn martial arts tomorrow."
Ji Lengyue nodded, "I am ready."
The Chen family patriarch nodded slowly.
Ji Lengyue was beautiful and had ice-like skin and jade-like bones, but she came from an ordinary family. The status of a martyr's widow was a bonus, which barely made her a match for Chen Jiuyang. But this was not enough. If Chen Jiuyang were just an ordinary Grandmaster of the Earth Realm, it would have been fine.
Chen Jiuyang possessed unparalleled talent and had a high probability of ascending to the Heavenly Realm King in the future. At that time, Ji Lengyue's current status would be somewhat insufficient. For Chen Jiuyang's sake, the Chen family patriarch approached the Emei Sect.
With Ji Lengyue becoming a true disciple of the Emei Sect leader, this status would ensure that no one would look down on her, nor would Granny Hui's words about her being a concubine occur again.
The Chen family patriarch acted with great shrewdness, balancing all aspects, ensuring no one would have any grievances.
Ning Family, Suzhou.
Madam Ning led the people of the Jiangnan Sect back to their home to chat.
"Although Chen Jiuyang's martial arts talent is outstanding, he is merely a martial arts fanatic. In other aspects, he can be called a good-for-nothing."
"His woman was poisoned right under his nose, and he was completely oblivious. Furthermore, he even made his woman apologize to Madam. The scene was truly laughable to me."
"The Chen family of Shu Mountain has produced such an excellent genius, but no matter how talented, he will be played in the palm of Madam's hand."
Madam Ning said with a smile, "This matter must not be spread. Our Jiangnan Sect will have to deal with the Chen family of Shu Mountain in the future, and it is not good to offend this future head of the Chen family too much."
"You still know that it's not good to offend me too much, so why did you poison my woman? Chen is very curious about the reason."
Chen Jiuyang's voice echoed in the hall.
Madam Ning and the martial artists' faces suddenly changed.
Immediately after, Chen Jiuyang, holding a saber in one hand and the head of a martial artist in the other, slowly walked into the hall.
Chen Jiuyang's eyes were chilling:
"If you do not give me a satisfactory answer, all of you will die!"
