The Powerful Feng Family

  "You... humph! If you don't drink the toast, you'll be punished with a penalty drink," Guangyuan said in an angry tone.

  "Your Majesty, I have come this time with some pressing matters to inquire about. On the island of Guanhe, a large jade crystal vein was discovered, which should be a joyous occasion. However, I found that deep within the vein, a large quantity of top-grade jade crystals had been stolen away by someone. This undoubtedly harms the common interests of the Tianxin Sect and the Great Yan Kingdom. I hope Your Majesty can apprehend this person, regardless of their noble status. As long as I report this matter back to the sect, this person will undoubtedly be put to death."

  Guangyuan finished speaking and deliberately glanced at Lenghao.

  Guangyuan didn't explicitly say who it was, but his actions caused everyone's gaze to shift towards Leng Hao.

  Leng Hao raised his wine glass and drank calmly, having long been prepared for Guangyuan's words. He was not surprised that Guangyuan would privately demand the top-grade Jade Crystal, and if he didn't get it, he would definitely expose the matter, using the sect's influence to his advantage. Although 80% of the crystal would eventually be handed over to the sect, the remaining 20% would certainly not be given to the Great Yan Kingdom or Leng Hao, leaving some benefits for Guangyuan.

  "Immortal, please calm your anger and let me ask a few questions," said Cold Lingtian with a bow, then turned to Cold Hao: "Your Highness, the Prince, Guanhe Island is your fiefdom, do you know what happened to these top-grade jade crystals?"

  Leng Lingtian knew that Leng Hua had taken away the Jade Crystal Emperor's Extreme Liquid, and since the top-quality Jade Crystal was gone, it must have been taken by Leng Hua. Now, Leng Lingtian's inquiry was just a formality.

  Ling Tian's expression was stern as he stared at Ling Hao, and then transmitted his voice through divine sense: "Hao'er, if it was really you who took them, hand over all these jade crystals. The Tian Xin Sect is not something that my Great Yan Kingdom can withstand."

  Guangyuan could sense a hint of spiritual fluctuations, but he didn't say anything. As long as the top-grade jade crystal was handed over, the process didn't matter.

  Leng Hao remained unmoved and simply shook his head, saying: "I don't know."

  Leng Ling Tian's eyes flashed with a cold light, he thought Leng Hao's cultivation was still shallow, these top-grade jade crystals must not be used yet, they were definitely all still on his body. He said so much, but Leng Hao directly refused.

  Leng Lingtian didn't know that Leng Hao had very few top-grade Yu Jing left, most of which were used to refine array symbols and couldn't be taken out.

  Guangyuan did not expect this outcome, he looked at Lenghao and said in a sinister tone: "Now things are not that big of a deal, if you take it out now, nothing will happen. But if I report back to the sect, then it won't be so simple as just handing it over."

  Everyone present heard Guangyuan's threatening words, and they all took a deep breath of cold air. For the Tianxin Sect, this absolute behemoth, it was impossible for them not to be afraid. Each person anxiously looked at Leng Hao, hoping that he could hand over the Exquisite Jade Crystal.

  "Dao Chang, what do you mean by this? Are you certain that the prince is guilty? Everything must be based on evidence," Feng Lingyun suddenly spoke up.

  "Your Majesty, I know you're anxious about your son, so let's just drop it. As for evidence, I don't have any, but if the Crown Prince allows me to search, I'm sure we can find something," Guangyuan said, staring at the silver bangle on Leng Hua's wrist with burning eyes.

  Leng Hao naturally couldn't let Guang Yuan search, the top-grade jade crystal was almost gone, not afraid of searching, but there were too many other things, array symbols, jade symbols, Jade Crystal Emperor Extreme Liquid, all extremely precious things, once exposed, would stir up a lot of trouble.

  "The prince's status is noble, how can he be searched by just anyone? If there's no evidence, then I'm afraid the Taoist priest should leave!" Feng Lingyin interrupted Leng Huan's words and said firmly. She knew that in Leng Huan's cufflink, there were many good things that couldn't be known to others.

  Leng Lingtian was also tense, he knew about the existence of Yu Jing Huang Ji liquid, this thing absolutely cannot be searched by Guang Yuan, otherwise, once the news spreads out, Da Yan country will not be able to keep such a treasure.

  Xian Chang, it's better if I send someone to assist in the search again. Maybe there's another person involved," said Leng Ling Tian.

  "Hmph! You're indeed anxious as parents, but you should know that I can understand, however the Tianxin Sect may not. " Guangyuan's words carried a threatening tone, he knew his status and position were not high, if he reported this incident back to the sect, although it would bring trouble to the Great Yan Kingdom, he couldn't avoid leaving an impression of being incompetent in front of the sect's elders.

  "Really? Then go back and report, I don't believe there's no evidence. A prestigious sect like yours would also make reckless arrests," Feng Lingyun said disdainfully. Because of the relationship between Feng Qianwu and Luofeng Hai Ge, the Feng family has become much more arrogant now. Although the Tianxin Sect is formidable, they absolutely do not have the guts to provoke the Luofeng Hai Ge.

  Luò Fèng Hǎi Gé, has existed since the beginning of heaven and earth, its foundation is extraordinary, absolutely not comparable to a ordinary sect like Tiān Xīn Pài which was established for more than 30,000 years. Even if the Phoenix family is just a weak and small branch, it's still not something that Tiān Xīn Pài can casually trifle with.

  "Good, the queen is indeed magnanimous. I just don't know if you'll still be so arrogant when the strong masters of our sect come to ask for your crimes," Guangyuan said angrily. He hadn't expected that after leaving Tianxin Sect, Feng Lingyun would still be so ungracious.

  Guangyuan was just an ordinary little person, coming to this big Yan country, thinking he was a sacred messenger of the immortal sect, looking down on anyone in this remote small country. Before coming, he didn't even investigate Feng Lingyun's identity or the background of the Feng family.

  "Is that so? Then please leave!" Feng Lingyun directly ordered him to be expelled.

  "Good...," Guangyuan said hastily, but he clearly knew that the cultivation of a newly promoted immortal was not enough to intimidate the people here, so he directly got up and left.

  "A bunch of country bumpkins, waiting for their country to be destroyed," a furious voice came from outside the palace.

  The good banquet was ruined by Guangyuan, and everyone subconsciously looked at Lenghao, all of this was caused by Lenghao.

  Feng Lingyun sensed the awkward atmosphere in the room and immediately spoke up, "Everyone, don't worry. Recently, my elder brother's daughter was chosen by our sect to cultivate due to her exceptional talent. Even if the Tianxin Sect's elder were to come, they wouldn't dare to be presumptuous."

  "That's right, our Feng family has already received the top-grade spiritual treasure Phoenix Needle bestowed by the Zong family, and we're not afraid of anyone," Feng Kuang said with a loud voice, adding to Feng Lingyun and Leng Hao's momentum.

  Everyone here knows that the Feng family's ancestral home is the Luofeng Hai Ge, and they all know a thing or two about its great reputation and power. At this moment, upon hearing that the Feng family has actually obtained a top-grade spiritual treasure, their pupils dilate as they gaze at Leng Hao with eyes full of envy and fawning admiration, no longer hiding their resentment.

  The top-grade spiritual treasure bestowed by the Luofeng Hai Ge, it doesn't matter if the news gets out. The Phoenix Needle is a unique treasure of the Luofeng Hai Ge, since the creation of heaven and earth, few people have dared to rob or use it.

  In such a long history, the inheritance of Luofenghai Pavilion has never been interrupted, and there must be people who dare to challenge Luofenghai Pavilion, but it is absolutely not a small role like Tianxin Sect.

  At this time, no one worried about the Tianxin Sect anymore. They knew that there was no direct evidence to prove that Leng Hao had taken the top-grade Jade Crystal, and with the deterrence of the Luofeng Hai Pavilion, this matter would definitely be settled.

  Leng Hao shook his head in silence, his mother was too overbearing, or perhaps the Feng family was also too overbearing. Looking at Leng Ling Tian's reserved and rigid face, Leng Hao also somewhat understood why he no longer liked his mother.

  Tianxin Sect, Leng Lingtian as the Emperor, can only be gentle and prepared to humble himself and pay the price. However, Feng Lingyun is overbearing and domineering, not worrying about any consequences. It's no wonder that in recent years, the expansion of the Great Yan Empire has been attributed by many to Leng Lingtian basking in Feng Lingyun's glory.

  The Tiān Xīn Sect generally maintained the number of 36 countries within its territorial waters, and also maintained a relatively balanced control. However, after the Fèng family left Luò Fèng Hǎi Gé and settled in Dà Yān Guó, the high-level leaders of the Tiān Xīn Sect knew about the relationships behind the Fèng family, so they turned a blind eye to the expansion of Dà Yān Guó.

  Conquering so many territories is indeed the achievement of Ling Tian's efforts, but without the implicit relationship between Feng Jia and Luo Feng Hai Ge, the Tian Xin Sect would have come out to stop his expansion.

  However, Leng Xiao knew that this relationship background was not reliable. Feng Qingwu was in danger at the Luofeng Pavilion, and in her previous life, the Feng family had also been exterminated overnight. He had been defeated by Leng Feng, his dignity trampled, and he had been stripped of his position as crown prince by Leng Lingtian. Such blows came one after another, and Feng Lingyin could not withstand them. She was proud, but her family, which she relied on, had been completely destroyed. Her parents, older brother, and son had all died overnight, and her son had been defeated by the son of their enemy. With all hope lost, many people who had previously flattered the Feng family jumped out one after another to mock and ridicule Feng Lingyin and Leng Xiao. Feng Lingyin really could not bear it and took her own life.

  Leng Hua's mind was filled with doubts, wondering if the Feng family had been exterminated by someone from the Luofeng Hai Ge who wanted to take over Feng Qianwu's Tianming Benxiang. Otherwise, if it wasn't an insider, a branch family being exterminated and a genius disciple being sent to the sect for cultivation, Luofeng Hai Ge wouldn't have let it slide without conducting a thorough investigation. It was likely that someone within had suppressed the matter.

  The Feng family was exterminated, and there were still several years of time. At least for now, relying on the relationship with Luo Fenghai Pavilion, it can still intimidate others.

  Leng Hao gently shook his head and stopped thinking about these past events. The banquet continued, but it was clear that everyone had lost their appetite.

  The atmosphere began to become oppressive, and Leng Tianyan spoke up: "You younger ones go out to the garden, we'll discuss the matters of the Tianxin Sect."

  The order of Ling Tian was issued, the singing and dancing palace maids retreated, the fine wines and delicacies were all withdrawn, many imperial concubines, princes, princesses, as well as family members of officials, all left the hall.

  The Council of Elders and the Four Great Clans remained, as well as some important ministers. Feng Lingyue and He Qingya also stayed behind.

  The garden is very large, with tables everywhere, filled with exquisite pastries. In the sky above, ordinary people with high skills are performing various wonderful programs.

  Everyone here is a woman or a junior, and as the crown prince, Leng Hao naturally has a majestic presence, surrounded by a large group of flattering and fawning people.

  Leng Feng's side isn't bad either, although there are many fewer people than Leng Hao's side, they're all elite talents. Thanks to Xia Fei's relationship, they've all gotten to know Leng Feng.

  Shang Qinglin, Mei Linxue and she followed behind Leng Hao with curiosity.
