Miaoxi never expected that the response to her personal invitation would be a rejection from this so - called good - for - nothing.
She was a Seventh - Realm Spiritual Pharmacist of the Bronze Mirror, a level higher than Jun Xin.
No matter if this man in front of her had no spiritual power or spiritual energy, or even if he had excellent spiritual roots and combat skills, he shouldn't have rejected the invitation from the Palace Master of the Mirror Moon Palace so bluntly.
"You seem quite loyal to that witch Jun Xin."
"It has nothing to do with her."
"How can it have nothing to do with her? If it didn't, why did she hug you before she was about to die? Who would believe there's nothing between you?"
Feng Zhan smiled faintly.
Miaoxi felt that he was mocking her.
"What are you laughing at? Is there anything wrong with what I said?"
"Not wrong, but completely wrong. Why do you think I would explain myself to you?"
Everyone gasped.
They all knew that although Miaoxi was much more amiable than Jun Xin, she was not someone to be trifled with.
She seemed kind on the surface, but had done many shady things in private.
"Think twice before you speak. Look at the ground you're standing on. Whose territory is this?"
Feng Zhan glanced at his feet.
Then he said indifferently, "So?"
"Is this how you treat me?"
Feng Zhan replied, "I think I've been quite polite."
Hearing this, Miaoxi instantly appeared in front of Feng Zhan.
She raised her hand, intending to take off Feng Zhan's straw hat.
However, before she could touch him, Feng Zhan suddenly retreated and landed on the high wall of the courtyard.
"This kid can actually dodge the moves of the princess of the Mirror Moon Palace?"
"Wasn't he supposed to have no spiritual power or spiritual energy? How is this possible?"
Feng Zhan stood on the high wall, looking down.
"Palace Master, I, Feng Zhan, am not a trouble - maker. I don't want any dealings with you. That girl Jun Xin is indeed not a good person, but compared to you, she's much cleaner."
Miaoxi clenched her fists.
Feng Zhan continued, "Don't look at me like that. Since I dared to say these words here today, it means I'm not afraid of your measly Mirror Moon Palace. You people of the Yuan Family are one more hypocritical than the other. On the contrary, the infamous Jun Xin has a much cleaner heart than you."
The disciples of the Yuan Family were, of course, very unhappy to hear such words.
"You brat, how dare you look down on the Yuan Family?"
"Do you think that just because you've been with that girl Jun Xin for a while, you can step on us?"
"It's ridiculous. A wild outsider dares to act so boldly in front of us."
As they spoke, they all began to mobilize their spiritual energy.
Feng Zhan just sneered and watched.
His father was right. There was no clean place in this world. As messengers, they could only make this plane a bit cleaner. It was even more difficult than ascending to the sky to completely wash away the dirty hearts of people.
Countless spiritual powers attacked Feng Zhan, but he remained motionless.
The straw hat on his head was also broken into two pieces under the impact of the spiritual powers.
The straw hat fell, revealing his peerless face to everyone.
There was a young master in the world, standing aloof from the world. One smile could captivate a city, two smiles could captivate a country, and three smiles could bring chaos to the world.
The countless spiritual powers passed through Feng Zhan's body.
Seeing this, Miaoxi's heart tightened. It would be such a pity for such a good - looking man to die under the attacks of the crowd.
However, after the spiritual powers passed, Feng Zhan's body showed no signs of injury.
He stood there unscathed.
Feng Zhan gently stretched out his hand and looked at Miaoxi.
"Give my thing back to me."
"What thing? When did I ever take anything from you?"
Feng Zhan paused for a moment, then appeared in front of Miaoxi. He reached out his hand and slid it along Miaoxi's waist. Miaoxi's breath caught in her throat because of this action.
The next moment, Feng Zhan quickly left and reappeared on the high wall.
The only difference was that this time, there was an ivory - boneless fan in his hand.
"I should have known better than to give this ivory - boneless fan to that girl."
Miaoxi had seen the exquisite ivory - boneless fan stuck in Jun Xin's body and took it back, tucking it into her waist.
Feng Zhan was sharp - eyed and spotted it at once.
"Is this your thing?"
"If it's not mine, is it yours? Palace Master, do you steal all your things?"
"You!"
Feng Zhan no longer looked at Miaoxi.
He looked at the entire Yuan Family.
He said, "That witch Jun Xin has an extraordinary bloodline and identity. One day, all of you who hurt her today will be on your knees crying."
At the city gate, Feng Zhan noticed a woman.
That woman had been hiding in the corner of the city, secretly watching Jun Xin.
There was nothing strange about that at first.
But later on,
Feng Zhan accidentally saw that the woman was talking to a charming woman in an alley.
At that time, Jun Xin was buying lip balm in a store.
Feng Zhan was leaning against the door and just happened to catch a glimpse of this scene.
Feng Zhan knew that charming woman. He had met her once at the birthday banquet of that girl Zhao Shuning.
Her name was Rong Yan.
Although he didn't know what Rong Yan and that woman had said, when Feng Zhan and Jun Xin returned to the Yuan Family, he saw that black figure again.
Feng Zhan followed her.
At a corner, Rong Yan noticed him.
Seeing it was Feng Zhan, Rong Yan didn't show much caution.
Feng Zhan asked who the woman in the alley was.
Rong Yan said indifferently, "Jun Xin's biological mother."
"Jun Xin said she was an orphan."
"She's not."
After saying this, Rong Yan fell silent.
Feng Zhan wasn't the kind of person who would force others, so he didn't think much of it and turned back to the Yuan Family.
The antidote was still in Jun Xin's hands.
Coincidentally, on his way back to the mansion, he met the woman from the alley.
Since Feng Zhan had entered the city with Jun Xin, the woman mistook him for the man Jun Xin fancied.
Seeing that she had something to say, Feng Zhan deliberately got her to reveal her identity.
The woman was elegant and noble. She was the young lady of the Jun Family in Qingyun Country, that is, Jun Jiu's aunt.
Later, although the woman was evasive about some things, Feng Zhan could detect people's thoughts. Connecting the dots, he roughly understood what had happened.
When he returned to the mansion and saw Jun Xin, remembering what the woman had said, he signaled her again not to go in.
But Jun Xin didn't agree. Even at this point, she still thought Yuan Xin wouldn't hurt her.
Feng Zhan also thought that maybe Yuan Xin knew Jun Xin's real identity, which was why he had always been so kind to her.
Maybe he had been too small - minded before.
So after some thought, he didn't stop her.
But now it seemed that Yuan Xin didn't know.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have killed Jun Xin with his own hands, a daughter who had respected him like a father.
