Chapter 278: Breakthrough (VI)



"Feng family?" Feng Jingtian laughed coldly twice, with a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes. "Don't forget how my mother died, and don't forget why I left the Feng family. I hate Lan Yue, not only because she is the wife you helped me choose, but more importantly, I can't like her hypocritical character. And if I have talent, will you Feng Xiang respect me? From the beginning to the end, I didn't want to be the young master of the Feng family."

The man's words pierced Fengxiang's heart like needles, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

He was right. The lady's death was indeed caused by him. If he had not been so cowardly and dared not to speak a word in her defense, she would not have died so miserably. She would never be able to forget the last look that woman gave her.

Desperate and miserable...

It is precisely because of this that Feng Jingtian has no sense of belonging to the Feng family and even hates himself as his father.

Just as Feng Xiang was immersed in memories of the past, Feng Jingtian disappeared in the hall in a flash, and soon, the fiery red figure landed in Mu Ruyue's room.

Feeling the breath coming towards her, Mu Ruyue frowned slightly and asked calmly, "Monster, what do you want from me?"

Feng Jingtian's phoenix eyes gazed deeply at the girl's beautiful face. There seemed to be an emotion that was difficult to understand on her enchantingly handsome face.

"I'm going to leave the Feng family for a while. You have to take care of your safety while I'm away."

Mu Ruyue raised her eyebrows: "If you let me go, maybe I will be safer."

The girl's words were full of thorns that pierced the man's heart, but he smiled as if he didn't care. He was obviously a man, but he could smile so beautifully.

"Take this token. As long as you are in danger, I will be able to rush back. Woman, do you know? My biological mother died when I was very young, and it was my father's cowardice that caused her death."

Feng Jingtian smiled bitterly, with sadness in his eyes: "It's because she practiced a kind of martial arts that can bring people back to life, and the price she paid is her life span. In order to save Feng Xiang, she used the martial arts, but she was caught by someone after the success. That person didn't see her saving Feng Xiang's life, but only saw the process of her losing most of her life span and turning from a young woman into an old woman. Therefore, she also passed on the position of demon reincarnation."

If a person saw a young face gradually turning into a wrinkled old woman, how frightened would that be? I guess everyone would think they saw a ghost.

Without Feng Jingtian continuing, Mu Ruyue could guess the ending...

"The elders of the clan said that she was a demon, so they burned her at the stake. The man was saved because of her, but he didn't say a word to defend her when she was being burned at the stake. It was because he was not yet the heir of the Feng family at that time. His own situation was not good, and many people wanted to get rid of him. How could he care about other people? Even if that person was his wife, she gave up most of her life to save him, which led to her aging face and was mistaken for a demon..."

From beginning to end, Feng Jingtian was unwilling to call that man father.

"I'm not saying all this to get your sympathy," Feng Jingtian looked up at Mu Ruyue, his eyes firm, "Before she left, she told me that if I could meet a woman I liked, I would protect her at all costs. So, I want you to believe me, I will protect your safety and won't let you get hurt in the slightest."
