Patriarch Kong felt his face burning. Zhou Xiang's seven consecutive questions went straight to the core of the matter. The person who accused him of being aggressive questioning was actually questioning him aggressively. He couldn't even sneer back, "Zhou Xiang, you know everything."

"Yes, I understand. I know Kong Xianxian is devoted to the Kong family. I know you want to use Yan'er's descendants to change the Kong family bloodline. I also know that Yu Yi is an opportunity.

Haha, Yu Yi, if my eldest brother is Yu Yi, what do you Kong family want to do? Capture him and mate with your Kong family women to give birth to more Yan'er who can't feel the energy of life?

Kong Xianxian realized something before she died. She said that her father was wrong and her father was going in the wrong direction. Why did she only focus on hatred and not on kindness when there were opportunities arising from hatred?

It was a totally wrong direction, and it gave birth to an enemy like me. Don’t you feel good?

I don't know if you are unhappy or not, but I am unhappy! When I am unhappy, someone will be in trouble.

I have made the choice for you. From now on, you no longer have to worry about the lifespan of your offspring, nor fear sudden earthquakes or tremors. Go forth and cultivate happily and effortlessly!

Zhou Xiang's last few words made Patriarch Kong inexplicably frightened. He made a choice for them? What choice?

"You, you not only took away your natal lamp? What else did you do?"

Zhou Xiang chuckled softly, "How heartless! I told you before Kong Xianxian died, but you didn't even say a word of concern. Has the cave keeper woken up?"

The implication of these words made Patriarch Kong even more alarmed. "You, your alchemy skills have improved again?"

"Of course," Zhou Xiang shamelessly acknowledged the credit for the thick earth grass, "With your Kong family here, I must constantly spur myself on to continuous progress and must trample you under my feet.

Just like your high-handed attitude over thirty years ago, playing with human lives, you played with the lives of innocent people, and I played with the lives of my enemies."

Patriarch Kong left with a dejected look on his face. He had to ask his clansmen if there was anything wrong with their bodies.

Professor Chu brought Xiao Tan to have breakfast. Seeing the student making an old man feel embarrassed, he felt a little sympathetic and a little happy.

Zhou wanted to go to the kitchen to wash his hands, and came out with a bowl of steamed buns. "Teacher, this morning we have rapeseed and mushroom steamed buns, your favorite."

Seeing that the student was in good spirits, Professor Chu also felt relieved. "Eat, eat."

Zhou Yan took the buns for his brothers and sisters, and finally took his own, "Aunt, is it someone from the Kong family?"

Zhou Xiang grabbed his hand holding the bun and stuffed it into his mouth. "Don't worry about adults' affairs, kid. Just have fun!"

Zhou Yan's mouth was blocked by the bun, so he nodded in agreement. His aunt was there!

The old master Kong went to the office on the fourth floor and first called his youngest son who had left home.

"Chen'er, has your body changed?"

"What's the meaning?"

"Zhou Xiang's alchemy skills have improved again. The powder that prevented the caretaker from waking up was made by her. She said she had made the choice for us and no longer had to worry about the lifespan of our offspring."

Kong Qianchen looked at the receding scenery outside the window and realized for the first time that riding a train was very comfortable. "It's great! Dad doesn't have to worry anymore."

"Do you understand what she means?"

"Yes, she threatened you more than once, but you just didn't listen."

"Then what feelings or changes do you have in your body?"

"Nothing unusual."

"Will this be another threat?"

"That's impossible. My cousin pulled out her reverse scale, which is prohibited by national law. If it were allowed, it would probably not be a fertility issue, but a life issue."

"No, I'll ask those who have wives."

"Father, the lamp issue has already caused a lot of controversy within the family. If this problem comes up again, it will be a huge uproar."

"What should we do then?"

"Suppress it for now. If no one reveals it, just pretend you don't know. If it doesn't affect your marital life, it probably won't come out for a few years."

Patriarch Kong leaned back dejectedly in his chair, "Chen'er, I realized that I am really old and can't handle these things anymore. Just now, facing Zhou Xiang's repeated questions, I couldn't answer a single one. She knew everything she should and shouldn't know.

Your cousin revealed everything before she died. Xianxian did this because she hated us, right? Kong Yan was imprisoned in the dungeon by Fujiwara and was whipped. We trusted the R people too much.

Kong Qianchen didn't believe it, "Impossible, my cousin is loyal to the family, you should learn Zhou Xiang's original words."

...After listening to Zhou Xiang's original words that his father had learned, Kong Qianchen hated himself even more for having met Zhou Xiang too late.

"Father, even if my cousin said something, it's limited. Zhou Xiang often guesses our thoughts and plans, just like playing chess, she always knows where we will make our next move. You should just admit defeat!"

Patriarch Kong disagreed. "Do you think we can just give in now? She's suing us now, and she's definitely asking for Kong Yan's custody. What happens next? She can't trade custody for thousands of lamps."

Kong Qianchen remained silent. No one could guess what Zhou Xiang was thinking. Admitting defeat was not necessarily the end.

Unable to hear the youngest son's answer, the old patriarch Kong sighed, "Chen'er, come back! I put down the position of patriarch for many years, and suddenly picked it up, but found that I couldn't keep up.

In the past, when we were confronted by Zhou Xiang, we could still discuss it, but now, it's not easy to discuss it over the phone. Although you are fed up with the Kong family's way of doing things, your actions make you look like a deserter in the eyes of others. At least, you should finish this matter!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time before a single word came back: "Okay."

Patriarch Kong heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Then, I'll wait for you in the town."
