Chapter 435: Who Are You Helping?

The old man decided that Tu Xiupei was a fool . How could such a foolish woman exist in this world? Her presence would make anyone doubt humanity’s intelligence . He decided it was time to get his master some justice .

“Throughout the ancestry of the Feng Family, women were the head of the family, the heir . The bloodline could only be passed down by the women . It was never through the men . ” The old man squinted his eyes and looked at Tu Xiupei . “Twenty years ago, the previous heir took in a man of the surname Tu as her husband . Was this man your father?”

Tu Xiupei’s expression changed . Before she could respond, the old man ‘humphed’ in cold disdain and continued, “I am not sure why this man of the surname Tu became the head of the family—since the Feng Family’s daughter was still around . But the birthright of the ‘heir’ shouldn’t belong to him . ”

“Grandmaster, you—” Tu Xiupei’s face turned pale . She stared at the old man with disbelief . He wasn’t helping her? Why was he undermining her testimony?

The old man interrupted her in his deep voice, “The Feng Family should belong to the eldest daughter, how was it snatched away by your mother? The Tu surname is rightfully your ancestry, how could your mother have given you the Feng surname?”

“I—”

“So, it must be you, who not only rejected your rightful lineage but also tried to steal the Feng surname for yourself . You kept saying she is your Eldest Sister, but in your account of the matter, none of those things are her unpardonable crimes, are they?” At the end of his speech, the old man gave her another disdainful ‘humph’ . “If you want to be foolish, do it alone and don’t drag the whole world along with you . ”

“Third Senior Sister’s surname isn’t Feng? Her real surname is Tu?”

“That’s not the point! The point is that her Feng status was removed, she was chased out of the Feng Family, but she still goes around calling herself the eldest daughter of Feng Family . How shameful!”

“There’s a reason for that! It’s Feng Tianlan who intentionally sabotaged her . You should all know that Third Senior Sister always treats us very well . ”

“That’s right! It’s more likely that a good person like Third Senior Sister was framed . This is all Feng Tianlan’s fault! I can’t believe she’s even this ruthless toward her own family . That woman’s heart is the most poisonous of all poisons!”

“What do you mean Third Senior Sister is a good person? Without her instigation, would Hu Kemeng and Zhao Haojiang bully the rest? It’s because she’s a hypocrite who uses her innocent front to hurt others through the hands of another . ”

“…”

Those gathered below the stage separated into two factions and began to quarrel among themselves .

“Master! Grandmaster!” Tu Xiupei looked to Qi Hongan with big eyes brimming full of tears . Was this really the grandmaster? Why wasn’t he speaking for her?

Qi Hongan finally understood the source of his foreboding . His master wasn’t on his side at all but was supporting Feng Tianlan . This was not how it should be! But the person in front of him was definitely his own master . What was going on?

“Master, Feng Tianlan is a spy who infiltrated the Flying Frost Pavilion to cause mischief . Surely you have made a mistake?” Qi Hongan pleaded softly .

Feng Tianlan raised her head and eyed the old man . She was sure now that the old man was helping her . So, his calling her “master” was not just a joke?

“Oh?” The old man lifted his greyish-white eyebrows in mock surprise . “When I arrived, I think I heard something like ‘disable her Cinnabar field, save the Flying Frost Pavilion’?”

Impossible! What a bunch of fools! He should just beat them up right away .

“Feng Tianlan practices three elements at once but she is also a spy, so I decided to disable her Cinnabar field and graciously lowered her ranking to that of an external disciple instead of casting her out, as a counter her schemes to save the Flying Frost Pavilion . ”

“And whose idea was it?” The old man looked at Tu Xiupei coldly .

His cold and imposing look made Tu Xiupei nod in fear . Then, she straightened her thoughts and shook her head vehemently .

“So then, it’s your idea?” The old man turned his icy stare to Qi Hongan .
