"Feng Nishang, please stop talking to me about these useless things. If I say no, I won't!"
Feng Ningsu ignored Feng Nishang's excuse and said seriously.
Feng Nishang also refused to give in, so she had to use her trump card.
"Mom, it's useless for you to object! Grandpa decided this matter!"
"What?" Feng Ningsu's expression changed as expected, she was both shocked and confused.
"What did your grandpa say?"
Feng Nishang said without hesitation: "Grandpa entrusted me to him, and he agreed."
"This..." Feng Ningsu was really embarrassed and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing her mother's reaction, Feng Nishang thought she had a chance to convince her mother.
But at this moment, Feng Qingfang stepped into the study and said expressionlessly: "Nishang, you are the young palace master of Wuji Palace, what qualifications does that bad old man have to decide your life?
He had only known Chu Tianchen for a month, how could he make such a hasty decision?
I think he is just an old fool and deserves to be scolded!"
Feng Qingfang's tone was filled with undisguised anger.
It is foreseeable that she will definitely send a summons slip and scold Li Xianyun bloody.
When Feng Ningsu saw her mother coming, she felt relieved.
Feng Nishang quickly saluted Feng Qingfang and pulled Feng Qingfang's arm to act coquettishly.
"Grandma, this is not only Grandpa's decision, but also my idea. Can't you support my decision?"
Feng Qingfang asked seriously: "Okay, even if you don't talk about that old thing, just talk about your thoughts and decisions.
You like Chu Tianchen, does Chu Tianchen like you?
Is he the Nine-Yang Holy Physique? Can he help you resolve the Nine-Yin Mysterious Veins?
Has he ever expressed his feelings for you and promised to marry you?"
"Uh..." Now it was Feng Nishang's turn to be speechless, and could only say awkwardly: "Grandma, he was the one who helped me suppress the cold poison and cold air in the Yuxiao Sect before."
Feng Qingfang said seriously again: "That is just temporary suppression with the help of external force, and it may relapse at any time. It is not a real solution to the problem.
Grandma asks you again, has he ever expressed his feelings to you?
If not, then you are just wishful thinking and doomed to be fruitless!
The same thing has already happened to your mother once, and grandma will never allow you to make the same mistake again!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Feng Nishang was speechless, but Feng Ningsu was also very embarrassed and did not dare to answer the question.
Both mother and daughter were suppressed by Feng Qingfang's domineering aura, and the study was silent.
After a moment of silence, Feng Qingfang finally made a decision.
"Of course we cannot refuse the marriage proposal from the Xuanyuan Family, and the engagement ceremony will be held officially in three days.
As for Chu Tianchen... Nishang, don't say that grandma won't give you a chance.
If Chu Tianchen also has feelings for you, then he knows what to do and should have the courage to oppose the engagement and bear the corresponding consequences!
On the contrary, if he can't do it, it proves that you are not important in his heart.
You should give up your unrealistic fantasies as soon as possible and marry into the Xuanyuan family!"
As soon as Feng Qingfang finished speaking, Feng Ningsu nodded in agreement: "Yes! Mom is absolutely right!
Nishang, this is the decision of mother and grandmother, and it is fair to you.
Stop being willful and act recklessly and think it through!"
Feng Nishang's heart sank, the light in her eyes gradually dimmed, and her expression became cold and indifferent.
"Nishang knows."
She responded calmly, bowed to her mother and grandmother, and silently exited the study.
After she left, Feng Qingfang also left the study angrily, sent a summons slip and scolded Li Xianyun.
Feng Ningsu showed a helpless smile and sighed quietly.
"Alas... this girl Nishang is my child after all, she looks like me and her grandmother.
You have to be strong, courageous and assertive throughout your life, but ultimately it is difficult to focus on the word 'love'.
I really hope that the tragedy that happened to us will not happen again to her."
After sighing, Feng Ningsu was quiet for a long time before gathering her mood and continuing to deal with the affairs.
However, as soon as she opened an account and was about to check last month's internal affairs, the guard's call came from outside the study door.
"Your Majesty, the Palace Master, Mr. Chu would like to see you."
"Huh?" Feng Ningsu frowned immediately, thinking to herself: "What a coincidence that this guy came here? Is it because he came to express his attitude to me for the sake of the colorful clothes?"
With a hint of expectation in her heart, she said in a majestic tone: "Let him come in."
Then, the door was pushed open, and Chu Tianchen, dressed in a cloud-patterned white robe, stepped into the study.
"Junior has met Aunt Feng."
Chu Tianchen stood in front of the desk and bowed respectfully with his fists in hand.
Feng Ningsu put down her account book, nodded slightly and said, "Tianchen, are you still used to living in Wuji Palace? Have you ever visited the city?"
Chu Tianchen answered truthfully: "Junior Sister Nishang arranged a place for me, which is very comfortable.
She also walked around the city with me and had a general understanding of Wuji Palace..."
After a few simple greetings, Feng Ningsu asked seriously: "Then why are you here?"
Chu Tianchen clasped his fists and said, "Aunt Feng must have heard from Junior Sister Nishang that this junior came to Wuji Palace this time and wanted to ask Aunt Feng for help.
This junior wants to refine a magic weapon, but lacks a piece of star sand.
This item is extremely rare, but Wuji Palace happens to have this material..."
Feng Ning nodded without changing her expression: "Nichang did mention to me that the star sand comes from the holy land of Wuji Palace and is hidden deep under the Crescent Lake.
If you need this, I'll take you to get it later.
Besides star sand, do you have anything else?"
Chu Tianchen hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "There is one more thing about Junior Sister Nishang. I don't know whether I should talk about it or not."
Feng Ningsu's eyes lit up, and she became more expectant in her heart. She nodded and said, "But it doesn't matter."
Chu Tianchen said in a calm tone: "This junior originally thought that Junior Sister Nishang would be very happy and relaxed when she returned to Wuji Palace.
But last night, the junior saw her wandering under the moon, and felt sad.
After questioning, I found out that she was tortured by the Nine Yin Mysterious Veins and only had three years left to live, so she was in a lot of pain inside.
Although, the junior does not know why she is worried.
But judging by her tone, it seemed to be related to Aunt Feng and Senior Feng.
The junior is bold and hopes Aunt Feng and Senior Feng can comfort her more instead of putting pressure on her and forcing her to do things against her will.
Although the younger generation is young, they have had similar experiences. They have been in a trough, confused, and even felt like they had nothing to love in this life.
Therefore, the juniors can understand Junior Sister Nishang's mood.
Please rest assured, Aunt Feng, that although this junior is of low strength, he will do his best to help Junior Sister Nishang alleviate her pain and resolve hidden dangers..."
It stands to reason that for an outsider to advise Feng Nishang's mother and grandmother not to put pressure on Feng Nishang, but to be considerate and comfort her, seems a bit ridiculous and without self-awareness.
But Chu Tianchen's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression and tone were sincere.
In Feng Ningsu's view, he is not only not offensive and ridiculous, but also somewhat innocent and cute.
"It seems that this little guy doesn't know that the Xuanyuan family is planning to propose marriage."
This thought flashed through Feng Ningsu's mind, and her views and perceptions of Chu Tianchen changed slightly.
She nodded slightly and said: "Tianchen, you don't have to worry too much. I am Nishang's mother. I naturally understand her and will comfort and take good care of her.
I am already happy for her that you have such a heart."
Chu Tianchen said no more and silently bowed his hands.
Feng Ningsu stood up and led him out, "Okay, follow me to Crescent Lake."
Chu Tianchen followed Feng Ningsu, left Fengyi Palace, and flew towards the north.
The two quickly crossed the city, flew over the smoke-shrouded lake, and headed straight for a high mountain in the north.
On the way, Chu Tianchen was still thinking to himself: "In the manor of the Lord of Fengyu Mountain, there is a man-made lake that looks like a crescent moon and is called Crescent Lake.
I didn’t expect that the holy land of Wuji Palace also has a Crescent Lake, what a coincidence.”
After a while, Chu Tianchen followed Feng Ningsu across Wuji Lake and arrived at the thousand-foot high mountain in the north.
Looking down from the sky, he saw a lake with a radius of a hundred miles at the foot of the mountain, as round as the bright moon.
The lake is surrounded by high mountains, surrounding it in the middle and isolating it from other lakes and rivers.
The strange thing is that the water surface of the lake appears in black and white, with sharp contrast.
The black lake surface is not divided straight in the middle, but like the yin and yang fish in the Tai Chi diagram.
At first glance, the lake looks like two crescent moons, which is quite conspicuous.
Chu Tianchen secretly thought that this was probably the origin of the name Crescent Lake.
A gust of mountain wind blew, carrying rich spiritual energy from heaven and earth and moist water vapor.
Chu Tianchen could sense that Crescent Lake was protected by an invisible defensive formation, and the mountains surrounding the lake were the base of the formation.
In addition, several pavilions and stone houses can be vaguely seen on those mountain peaks, and there are traces of guards patrolling and activities.
On the surface, Crescent Lake seems to be undefended and very quiet.
But in fact, Crescent Lake's defenses are very tight, making it difficult for outsiders to sneak into it.
Once there is any disturbance, the guards stationed on the surrounding mountains will immediately detect it and report it to Wuji Palace in time.
Feng Ningsu pointed to Crescent Lake and said to Chu Tianchen: "This is the holy land of Wuji Palace, Crescent Lake.
According to the rules of Wuji Palace, only I can enter.
The elders of Wuji Palace must hold the palace master's warrant before they are eligible to enter.
Just wait patiently here and I will go get the star sand for you."
Originally, Chu Tianchen only wanted to get a piece of star sand and didn't care about the process.
No matter Feng Ningsu went to get it or he entered Crescent Lake to search, the result would be the same.
But at this moment, Hongmeng's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"You must enter this lake yourself!
Because the second false spring of Taikoo Lingquan is under this lake."
Suddenly hearing the news, Chu Tianchen was shocked, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He originally thought that he would do two things when he came to Wuwu Daze this time.
The first is to enter Wuji Palace and get the Star Sand.
The second is to explore the endless swamp and search for the second false spring.
But he didn't expect that the Star Sand and the Fake Spring were both under the Crescent Lake, and the two things became one thing!
So, he quickly saluted Feng Ningsu with his fists clasped, and said with a sincere expression: "Aunt Feng, I am deeply grateful that you can give me the star sand, so how can I dare to trouble you to get it in person?
As the lord of the first house, you are already busy with affairs.
It has been an eventful time recently, and you are bound to have more things to deal with.
If you delay your important event just to help me, I will definitely feel guilty.
