C3 Distinct Relationship Between Grace and Enmity

In the great hall of the Feng Family Mansion sat the patriarch Feng Changge and his family.

Feng Changge used to be a soldier on the battlefield, tall and strong with a tough and bold character. A killing intent could be felt in his each and every move. But at this moment, his face was filled with worry.

His adopted son, Long Yu, had actually disappeared early in the morning!

One should know that Long Yu was the son of his old friend, and that he treated Long Yu better than his biological daughter. Now that Long Yu had gone missing, one could only imagine how he might feel!

Other than Patriarch Feng Changge, there was also a pretty girl wearing a light green long skirt. She was Feng Changge's daughter, the genius Martial Cultivator Feng Yao.

Feng Yao had joined the Cold Ice Sect, one of the seven major sects in the Great Tang Kingdom, in her early years and had outstanding talent in cultivation. When she came back this time, she had actually become an Inner Sect Disciple of the Cold Ice Sect, and her cultivation had reached Level Seven of Martial Tao!

At this moment, there was no expression on this beautiful young girl's face, only indifference.

She seemed to be completely indifferent towards Long Yu's disappearance.

Other than Feng Changge and Feng Yao, the father and daughter, there was another richly dressed middle-aged lady sitting in the hall. She was Feng Yao's mother, and Feng Changge's wife, named Liu Yu.

"Feng Changge, what are you waiting for?"

Liu Yu, the middle-aged noble woman, had a cold expression on her face as she said to Feng Changge, "Yao'er still needs to hurry back to the Cold Ice Sect to cultivate. She doesn't have the time to wait here with you!"

It was easy to tell that even though Liu Yu and Feng Changge were wife and husband, they weren’t on good terms.

When Feng Changge heard Liu Yu's words, he immediately glared at her and scolded angrily, "You still dare to say that? I just asked you last night how about letting Xiao Yu marry Yao'er. This morning, he went missing from the mansion. Can you explain that?"

Liu Yu said with disdain, "What's there to explain? He's just a piece of trash. How could he be worthy of our Yao'er? He is so useless that, once he leaves the Feng Mansion, anyone can kill him. He deserves to die!"

Feng Changge shouted angrily, "Shut up!"

After this angry shout, the hall was quiet for a moment, and the anger in Feng Changge's heart was quickly replaced with worry and anxiety.

Just as Liu Yu had said, Long Yu was an ordinary person that couldn't cultivate, so if he left the Feng Mansion, it was extremely easy for him to encounter misfortune.

After a while, Feng Yao, the young girl who seemed indifferent, suddenly stood up and turned towards the door. Her voice was as clear as a sparrow's, "I still have matters to attend to in the sect, so I will be leaving."

Feng Changge, on the other hand, restrained his temper a little in front of his daughter. He frowned and asked, "You have only been back for two days. Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Feng Yao didn't even turn her head around as she lightly said, "I'm only coming back to pick out a suitable weapon. Now that I have got father's sword, there's no need for me to stay any longer. I'd better return to the sect to cultivate right away."

After she finished speaking, she walked with light steps towards the entrance of the hall.

However, when she raised her head, she saw a black-clothed youth walking over with a smile. It was Long Yu who had just returned from outside the city!

Feng Yao could not help but frown.

"Xiao Yao, why are you leaving so soon?"

Long Yu walked over with a slight smirk.

Feng Yao, this genius girl who became quite famous recently, was still considered his adopted sister.

He had heard some of the conversation among the three people in the hall just now, and upon knowing that his adoptive father Feng Changge wanted to betroth Feng Yao to him, he couldn't help but secretly shake his head.

Although his adoptive father was good to him, he went a bit too far!

Seeing Long Yu who was dressed in black, Feng Changge, who was originally sitting in the hall, suddenly stood up with a face full of joy. Thank heavens he was fine!

As for the middle aged noble woman, Liu Yu, she had an unhappy look on her face, and she did not want to bother with Long Yu who had returned.

"Mm."

Feng Yao frowned and nodded.

It was as if she was extremely puzzled to see Long Yu here again.

She slowly stepped forward, her graceful figure moving towards the door, as if she did not see Long Yu, and very quickly, she was about to pass Long Yu.

Long Yu did not say much. He just walked into the hall, and just as he was about to pass Feng Yao, he suddenly said something.

And these words caused Feng Yao's steps to stop all of a sudden.

"Father, two servants brought me to the river bank outside the city this morning and they tried to kill me. However, at this critical moment, an unexpected person appeared and saved me…"

Long Yu said these words to Feng Changge, and of course, he was saying these to Feng Yao on purpose, so as to see her reaction.

They wanted to kill him!

Feng Changge's previously good mood instantly disappeared into thin air, and his face became gloomy all of a sudden. The Feng Family servants actually brought Long Yu out and tried to kill him? How audacious!

In the hall, the middle-aged noble woman, Liu Yu, also had a face full of astonishment. She did not expect such a thing to happen.

As for the young girl Feng Yao, who passed by Long Yu, she paused her steps and subconsciously asked, "Then who was the person that saved you?"

Even though her tone was calm, Long Yu, as someone who had lived a second life and had also had countless life and death encounters, had long seen through people's hearts. From the depth of that calm tone of voice, there was a slight tremble. It was clear that currently Feng Yao was not at all calm!

No doubt it was her.

Long Yu was absolutely sure that the two servants, one fat and the other thin, were sent by Feng Yao to kill him!

"Wasn't Xiao Yao in a hurry to come back to the Cold Ice Sect? I won't trouble you to take care of this unrelated matter."

Long Yu chuckled, and then passed her by and stepped into the hall!

Even though he wanted to take revenge, currently he wasn't a match for Feng Yao in terms of strength. More importantly, Feng Yao was Feng Changge's biological daughter!

"Humph."

Feng Yao also realized that her reaction was a little overboard. She snorted lightly and walked away without turning her head back.

And her performance was naturally seen by Feng Changge in the hall, causing his brows to knit tightly. Could it be that Feng Yao was the one who sent the two servants to kill Long Yu?

With Feng Changge's understanding of his daughter, she would very likely do such a thing!

Ever since that incident when she was little, Feng Yao's thirst for power had reached a level that ordinary people couldn't hope to reach. In her eyes, there was only power, and she was determined to get rid of all the obstacles that prevented her from increasing her strength.

Feng Changge suddenly realized that, if Long Yu married Feng Yao, it would completely harm him. As an ordinary person who could not cultivate, even if Feng Yao did not care, when Long Yu was together with Feng Yao, the result would not be any better!

"Humph."

The middle-aged woman, Liu Yu, coldly snorted.

She had never been kind to Long Yu, and just as she was about to say something with a dark face, she was scolded by Feng Changge, "Liu Yu, you go out first."

Seeing Feng Changge's serious face, Liu Yu knew that her husband was truly angry this time.

"You good-for-nothing brat, someone would actually save you when you encounter something like this? Listen up, you useless toad, don't think about eating swan meat all day. From head to toe, how are you worthy of my Yao'er?"

Liu Yu said with disdain before turning around and leaving the hall.

Thinking about eating swan meat all day?

Long Yu was stunned. This shrew was really self-righteous!

Of course, after all, she was Feng Changge's wife, so Long Yu couldn't be bothered to say anything.

In the Feng Family Hall, soon there were only Long Yu and Feng Changge left.

Feng Changge sat in the seat of honor, and called out to Long Yu, "Xiao Yu, don't worry about what she said just now. Quickly come over and sit. Tell me what exactly happened?"

"Father."

Long Yu walked over and sat beside him. He hesitated for a moment, and then quickly decided on what to say.

His adoptive father Feng Changge was an old friend of his father. He had raised him, and the debt of gratitude Long Yu owed him was as heavy as a mountain. If it wasn't for Feng Changge, a trash like Long Yu that couldn't cultivate wouldn't even be able to live in peace until now.

But now, Feng Changge's biological daughter had sent the servants to kill Long Yu. She was his foe, a foe that needed to be avenged, and this was Long Yu's constant belief!

However, Feng Yao was also Feng Changge's biological daughter, so if it were anyone else, they would not know how to handle this kind of matter.

"Gratitude comes first, vengeance comes later. Gratitude is repaid first, and then revenge is taken!"

Long Yu made his decision very quickly. He knew clearly who helped him and who harmed him.

If he truly wanted to take revenge and kill Feng Yao, then he must first repay the debt of gratitude he owed to Feng Changge. Otherwise he would be guilty. Now that he had stepped into the Martial Tao, it was taboo to feel guilty.

Of course, regardless of whether it was for gratitude or for revenge, he had to be stronger in cultivation. Otherwise, both would just be empty talk.

After thinking it through, Long Yu started to explain, "This morning, two servants came to find me. They said that the Patriarch had ordered them to bring me out to purchase some stuff, so I did not suspect anything and followed them to the outside of city. Just as we came to the bank of the river, they suddenly tried to kill me…Father, actually, the unexpected person that I mentioned just now is completely made up. The reason I came back alive is that, at that time, I just so happened to step into the Martial Tao, which was a blessing in disguise!"

He stepped into the Martial Tao!

These words were no different from a thunder from the heavens, causing Feng Changge to immediately become excited.

"Xiao Yu, you can cultivate now?"

Feng Changge's butt had not even warmed up, yet he stood up again with a burst of excitement!
