Chapter 291 Is "Su Wanru" Hua Lingxiao's daughter?

Mo Kan and others had just received the news.

What the elders meant was that the Phoenix Jade Fruit was the sacred object of the Gu Sect, and whether or not to give it to outsiders was a matter of great importance, and the younger generation should also know about this matter.

Even if they don't have the power to make decisions, they should be able to witness the whole process.

Grandma Tu is a respected elder in the village and is very good at witchcraft. To show respect, we should invite her over.

So, this was the scene that Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru saw.

Hua Lingxiao said solemnly, "Our ancestors left us a message long ago. Although the Phoenix Jade Fruit is a sacred object, it is a gift from heaven and earth. If you meet a destined person and go through the Gu technique test, you will be eligible to get a Phoenix Jade Fruit."

Mo Kan didn't expect that what Lu Jiangnian and others wanted was the Phoenix Jade Fruit.

He sneered in his heart, no matter how much they wanted, they would never succeed.

Next to Mo Kan sat a woman in grey clothes. She looked older than Hua Lingxiao. She had a solemn and dignified face and seemed to have a bad temper.

This is Mo Kan’s mother, Mo Nihong, one of the elders of Gu Sect.

As soon as Hua Lingxiao finished speaking, Mo Nihong questioned him harshly: "How can a newcomer be considered to have a connection with the Gu Sect? Sect Master, we can't just grant the request to anyone who comes to ask for a holy object. This is too casual."

"It seems that we, the Gu Sect, don't care that much about the holy objects."

Hua Lingxiao showed the magnanimity of a sect leader and did not get angry because of Mo Nihong's questioning.

"Everyone, please think carefully. Has anyone from the Great Jing Dynasty ever come to our Mengxin Village?"

Not really.

Southern Xinjiang was considered a small vassal state of the Great Jing Dynasty and had always been governed by the Tu ethnic group in Southern Xinjiang.

Over the years, the Dajing Dynasty has been accepting tribute from southern Xinjiang.

This place is a land of barbarians and smoke. Even if people from the Dajing Dynasty go to the southern border, they are still in the northern area.

Mengxin Village is located in the Laimeng Mountain in the south. It is in a very secluded location and has little communication with the outside world.

Even if there was communication, it was only with the surrounding villages. In fact, Lu Jiangnian and others were the first wave of people from the Dajing Dynasty to come to Mengxin Village.

"Based on this alone, they can be called destined people."

These words seem to make sense, but upon closer examination, they are too far-fetched.

Mo Nihong knew that Hua Lingxiao had been in the Dajing Dynasty and was better at talking than her, so she convinced the other three elders to give Yuan Wanru a chance to test herself.

Thinking of what Mo Kan mentioned, Mo Nihong sneered: "I'm afraid that the real reason for our fate is not this, but that she is the daughter you gave birth to in the Great Jing Dynasty."

"Don't you realize that Su Wanru looks a lot like Hua Lingxiao?" (Explanation: Yuan Wanru and Su Shaodong pretended to be siblings, and they thought Yuan Wanru's last name was Su.)

One stone caused a thousand ripples, and the others all stared at Yuan Wanru's face and looked at it carefully.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed that they look quite alike."

"It can't be true?"

"If so, then this girl must stay. After all, she is of the Hua family's bloodline and might have some talent."

"Yes, April has not been working hard. Having one more candidate is a good thing for our Gu Sect."

All these words fell into Lu Jiangnian's ears.

It seems that I can't admit that Yuan Wanru is Hua Lingxiao's daughter no matter how hard I try.

He was afraid of this happening after hearing Yuan Wanru talk about the reasons and consequences of Hua Lingxiao's leaving Yuanchuan.

In order to pass the test, Yuan Wanru must show her real skills, but Hua Siyue doesn't look that smart, so her abilities must be average.

If the people in Gu Sect knew my wife’s true identity, I’m afraid it would be difficult for them to leave Gu Sect.

"What a joke! My wife's last name is Su. My eldest brother-in-law came with us. I've also met my mother-in-law. What's wrong with you? Why did you just arrange an extra mother-in-law for me?"

A white-bearded elder named Jiao thought for a while before saying, "This surname doesn't match. I'm afraid the people are similar."

Back then, it was he who went to find Hua Lingxiao.

Therefore, he always felt a little guilty towards Hua Lingxiao, and generally he would not object to anything Hua Lingxiao proposed.

Jiao Chang is nearly eighty years old and has the most seniority, so the other two elders will listen to his opinions most of the time.

"That's right, she has an older brother, so that's impossible."

Because they all knew that Hua Lingxiao had only given birth to a daughter when he was away.

At this time, Lu Jiangnian was sincerely grateful that he had allowed Su Shaodong to come with him. In order to conceal their tracks, Yuan Wanru and Su Shaodong had become relatives.

From now on, he can be more polite to Su Shaodong.

Mo Kan felt that Yuan Wanru must be Hua Lingxiao's daughter.

"If you want to confirm it, it's very simple, just drop blood to test your relationship."

Mo Nihong clapped her hands repeatedly: "Good idea, don't you want to know whether she is the daughter of the sect leader?"

Lu Jiangnian's heart sank.

If she was really exposed, at worst he would just fight his way out. In short, he would never allow anyone to keep Yuan Wanru in Gu Sect.

Hua Lingxiao was still thinking about how to dissuade Mo Nihong from this idea, but Yuan Wanru had already said with a smile: "Okay, but if you want me to agree, I have a condition."

Hua Lingxiao looked at her and asked calmly, "What are the conditions?"

"After the blood test, we will start the trial. What do Sect Master Ling Xiao and the elders think?"

Hua Lingxiao just told her that the other elders had agreed, except Mo Nihong.

Taking this opportunity, Yuan Wanru asked Mo Nihong to make a promise.

Seeing Yuan Wanru's performance, Hua Lingxiao had an idea in his mind. He thought that his daughter must have learned a lot of skills from following the miracle doctor and was able to confuse people.

Hua Lingxiao felt a surge of pride, but also a slight sense of loss. After all, she missed her daughter's growth.

"I have no objection. What do the elders think?"

Mo Nihong was the first to answer: "If you are not Hua Lingxiao's daughter, then I will give you the opportunity to test you. If you are, then it is unnecessary. According to the rules, people from the Gu Sect are not allowed to touch the Phoenix Jade Fruit unless it is a matter of life and death or a great contribution."

Yuan Wanru said calmly and confidently, "Then it's a deal."

Seeing her behavior, Mo Kan frowned. Could it be that she and Hua Lingxiao really have nothing to do with each other?

The reason why the Mo family was so eager to prove that Yuan Wanru was Hua Lingxiao's daughter was actually to deal with Hua Lingxiao.

Hua Siyue grew up under the care of Hua Lingxiao. She is arrogant and looks down on others. "Su Wanru" is Hua Lingxiao's biological daughter, but she has been abandoned by Hua Lingxiao for many years.

"Su Wanru" and Hua Siyue absolutely cannot coexist peacefully. At that time, Hua Lingxiao would be wrong no matter who he helps, and his life would become difficult.

The Mo family has always wanted to replace the Hua family.

Hua Lingxiao is talented and everyone in the village believes in her. Even though Hua Siyue is so dull, everyone still has high hopes for her.

Mo Nihong didn't know how much she was upset about this matter. Obviously, their Mo family also had girls with good talents, but the elders never paid attention to them.

If they could keep "Su Wanru" and stir up the trouble, this might be the best opportunity for the Mo family to rise to power.
