Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Patriarch of Feng Family (Part 3)
A person who wanted to kill her, why would she have any reason to let them live?
“Whether it’s the Feng Family or the Lan Family, I will not let them off. However, I can consider the fact that you once allowed me to have insights in the tower and therefore will not exterminate the Feng Family completely. At the very least, I won’t kill Feng Jingtian, and I won’t kill innocent people indiscriminately. The innocents, in my opinion, do not include those loyal to the Feng Family Patriarch. Any of his loyal followers I can’t possibly spare. Senior, I’m not alone; I have many people I care about. If it were just me alone, it would be fine, but for their sake, I cannot leave any threat.”
She was not afraid of others seeking revenge against her.
But she had the Shitian Team, relatives from the Xiao Family, and Ye Wuchen…
What if she killed Feng Xiang, and Feng Xiang’s so-called followers took revenge on the Xiao Family? The Xiao Family were numerous, with countless strong individuals, yet not everyone was a strong person, and those strong could not protect everyone in the Xiao Family.
Therefore, she could not take the risk, nor was she willing to gamble with the lives of her loved ones…
Even if her hands were stained with blood and caused widespread devastation, she would not allow anyone to harm the people she cared about.
Huo Hun was momentarily stunned, shaking his head helplessly.
This girl’s nature was like that; she would rather uproot the problem than leave a future threat. That she would not completely punish the Feng Family was already her limit. As for Feng Xiang and his loyal servants, whether they lived or died was no longer a concern.
But it was indeed what he deserved. If he hadn’t provoked this girl first, how could she have become so angry? Fortunately, he didn’t have any particular affection for Feng Xiang. As long as the Feng Family continued to exist, it was enough…
“Girl, I agree with what you said. If one fails to eradicate the root when cutting down the weed, it will grow back in the spring breeze. Feng Xiang brought it upon himself. Had he not wanted to kill you, you wouldn’t want to kill him either, so I will stay out of this matter,” the Ancestor said with a bitter smile.
Huo Hun gave a rueful smile, the only regret being that the Feng Family would lose an Innate Strong Person. Fortunately, the young Feng Jingtian was still there, and with his strength, maintaining the Feng Family wouldn’t be a problem.
“Then I thank you for your understanding, Senior,” Mu Ruyue said with a grateful smile.
No matter what, she still held a lot of fondness for Huo Hun who had helped her. Of course, she didn’t want to fall out with him over this matter.
But even if Huo Hun tried to stop her, she would still go to all lengths to kill Feng Xiang…
“Ancestor!” Feng Xiang’s face suddenly changed drastically, his handsome features clearly showing his astonishment.
Right now, he was completely dumbfounded. As the Patriarch of the Feng Family, to think he would help an outsider? What was this girl’s background, and why did the Ancestor help her?
“Boy, do you really think that I am unaware of everything?” The Ancestor swept his gaze over Feng Xiang with a cold eye and scoffed, “What unsourced background, hiding strength—this girl’s strength was clearly sealed by your son, in order to make her stay here forever. Unfortunately, she has no desire to remain with the Feng Family. Only by breaking through the Innate level could she undo the seal. And with this girl’s character, she would never provoke anyone without cause. If you hadn’t revealed your killing intent towards her, why would she seek to take your life? Since you, as the Feng Family Patriarch, can’t accomplish anything useful for the family and only bring about trouble, there’s no use keeping you. Hence, as the Patriarch of Feng Family, I hereby announce that the next Family Head will be Feng Jingtian. As for you…”
His voice paused slightly, and the Ancestor’s old face became stern.
“Since you are part of the Feng Family, then let me personally deliver your final blow! This is the last bit of dignity I am preserving for you!”
