"The Emperor's son? Isn't that Feng Yan's son?" Yao Cang lowered his voice, muttering to himself.
After the false alarm, the conversation returned to normal.
Feng Ning said seriously, "Brother Xie, now that Peak of Heaven and Jade Pivot Sect are fighting, I think it's boring to stay at the gate, so why don't I join you?"
Xie Feng nodded. " The Jade Pivot Sect welcomes you."
Yao Cang said, "He's truly Feng Yan's finest son... These kids, one after another, aren't even on the same team as their father..."
Feng Ning's gaze was firm as she said in a deep voice, "This has nothing to do with family ties; I'm simply standing on the side of justice!"
Everyone fell silent!
Xie Feng arranged for Feng Ning to stay at the Jade Pivot Sect, and set up a courtyard for him alone.
Anyway, the sect is big and has many courtyards, so you can stay wherever you like.
As night fell and the moonlight deepened, Feng Ning, unable to sleep peacefully, couldn't resist going for a walk.
He left the Jade Pivot Sect and came to a nearby valley.
This is the place, thick with the stench of blood. Even though it's covered by the collapsed rubble and soil, the Blood Qi still soars to the sky!
Feng Ning sensed it and gasped.
The entire valley is buried with the Emperor Phoenix Clan!
It was those 800,000 troops!
For a moment, he felt a mix of emotions.
Having grown up on the Peak of Heaven, he naturally felt a sense of belonging to the Emperor Phoenix Clan.
but...
Feng Yan treated him badly!
He was born into royalty, yet his childhood was tragic.
If it weren't for Kong Qiusu's protection, he would have died long ago in the cruel brotherly struggle.
Even more importantly, his older sister, Ren Yanyu, has changed her name and joined the Jade Pivot Sect!
This is a very big bargaining chip.
This made him follow Xie Feng without hesitation.
"Perhaps this is fate, destiny... No matter what choice you make, there will be regrets. It's better to be firm in your current choice, go all the way down this path, even if it means dying a bloody death..."
Feng Ning took a deep breath and thought to herself.
He stood beside a valley where rocks had fallen, the valley resembling a grave.
The birds and beasts sang their final, mournful songs.
After a while, he turned around, his steps steady, and prepared to walk towards the Jade Pivot Sect.
A person emerged from the darkness and silently blocked his way.
This man was tall and dressed in a black robe. His face was extremely thin in the dead of night, and his eyes resembled those of a ferocious and silent wild beast!
Peak of Heaven, Feng Yan!
Upon seeing him, Feng Ning was startled. He couldn't help but take two steps back and tried to run away!
Feng Yan raised his right hand, and the surrounding space was immediately sealed off.
Feng Ning can't escape!
Helpless, he could only turn around and face Feng Yan directly. "This is the Demon-Burying Clan, what are you doing here?!"
Feng Yan said, "Didn't you come too? What, are there still such Emperor Phoenix in this world, who only allow their sons to come, but not their fathers?"
Feng Yan's eyes were wary, but he remained silent.
Feng Yan took two steps forward, a cold smile on his face, "Either you're guarding the gate, or you're in the Jade Pivot Sect, or you're wandering around outside, or you're not coming back to Peak of Heaven. Fifth Brother, what are you afraid of?"
Feng Yan remained silent.
He knew that in this situation, the more he said, the more mistakes he would make!
Feng Yan took two more steps forward, staring intently at Feng Ning, and continued to sneer.
"Fifth Brother, I want to ask you a question: how do you define justice or evil? Do I look like I'm on the side of justice or evil?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Ning's heart skipped a beat.
He had just said not long ago that he was on the side of justice, and now that statement is being questioned.
Feng Yan is spying on him?!
Feng Yan asked, "Tell me, am I not on the side of justice? The Demon-Burying Clan wanted to invade the Fifth Universe, and I did my best to protect it, sacrificing so many people every day. Am I not righteous enough? Or rather, your perception is flawed! Don't you know that Xie Feng is on the side of the Demon-Burying Clan? Yet you took the initiative to contact him. That's fine, I've always turned a blind eye."
"However, the fact that you have now joined the Jade Pivot Sect is a great humiliation for me and for the Emperor Phoenix Clan. As the Emperor Phoenix Clan's son, you should stand firmly with the people of the Emperor Phoenix Clan. What have you done? You have betrayed the Emperor Phoenix Clan!"
Feng Yan questioned coldly, a hidden anger rising in his eyes.
Feng Ning said, "Don't say that, I won't listen! Don't try to use some so-called righteousness of the Emperor Phoenix Clan to blackmail me! You have five children, and now they've all betrayed you. You should know that you need to reflect on yourself!"
"They all betrayed me?"
Feng Yan frowned, then suddenly clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "So it seems that the Third Brother has also betrayed me!"
Feng Ning's face stiffened.
Oh no, that gossipy old man betrayed Feng Luo!
Third brother...
I didn't mean to...
Feng Ning felt like crying but had no tears left; she wished she could slap herself to death.
Seeing the subtle look on his face, Feng Yan scoffed, "Are you repenting? By the way, do you know why this valley behind you was filled in?"
"They shouldn't have attacked the Jade Pivot Sect first; it was courting their own destruction."
"Yes, it was my mistake. I didn't originally intend to attack the Jade Pivot Sect so soon, but I didn't expect Qing Yi to betray us. He misled General Feng, causing the deaths of 800,000 troops. I really didn't expect that Xie Feng would be able to turn Qing Yi against us..."
Feng Yan shook his head. If it weren't true, he still wouldn't believe it!
In the past, during the days when he served him, Qing Yi proved his indispensability with his achievements time and time again.
But now, they've actually been turned against us!
This caused him immense grief and confusion.
Feng Ning laughed and said, "You don't know why? Then let me tell you. It's because you're too suspicious! He's absolutely loyal to you, yet you still don't trust him. Over time, even the warmest heart will grow cold!"
Feng Yan closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then sighed deeply, "Thinking back, you're right, I do seem to... have indeed had moments of distrust towards him... Wait a minute... I suddenly realized something..."
His eyes flickered!
Feng Ning frowned. "What have you figured out?"
Feng Yan said, "The reason Qing Yi betrayed me! It must be that matter! Hiss, I should have thought of it long ago, but I didn't take it seriously... It's your sister, Feng Wen! I should have known long ago that Qing Yi liked Feng Wen! Otherwise, why would he stand up for Feng Wen and even be willing to transport supplies! He despises transportation the most... So, because Feng Wen died in battle, he blames everything on me? This... doesn't seem to be his fault. I really... don't love Feng Wen! I don't even love her mother!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Ning gritted her teeth and coldly asked, "Do you still remember that Feng Wen's mother is my mother?"
Feng Yan's expression changed, and a fleeting hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.
He has too many wives, he can't even keep track of them all...
Feng Yan smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, saying that about your mother hurt your feelings."
Feng Ning said expressionlessly, "I will only be happy if you leave Jade Pivot Sect and Heaven Realm right now."
