The other aristocratic families affected didn't say much. After all, compared to Chu Feng's losses, they were merely collateral damage and weren't subjected to extensive looting.
However, what was taken away was enough to make them feel the pinch.
After everyone had left, Chu Feng led his men back to the Chu residence.
Looking at the Chu family mansion that had been completely looted, Chu Tianxiong said, "Who did my Chu family offend to deserve this!"
Ah Li, holding the two children's hands, looked at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng slowly half-embraced her, saying, "Thank you, Madam."
"We are husband and wife, so there's no need for thanks. It's just that even leaving behind 10% is still too much," Ah Li said with some regret.
If I had known, I wouldn't have kept any of them.
Chu Feng said, "It's alright. After all, we can't hide forever. Losing that money will actually bring us peace and quiet, which is fine."
Chu Feng had already heard rumors, because the person above had been investigating the Ghost Pavilion for years. In the last two years, they had come to him and learned that he had once been a person destined for the Ghost Pavilion.
They kept sending people to subtly inquire about the whereabouts of the Ghost Pavilion.
However, Chu Feng skillfully deflected all of them.
Little did I know, this time the person above would use it as an excuse to make a fuss.
Ah Li's eyes flickered before Chu Feng hugged her.
Chu Feng said, "Ah Li, you don't need to do anything, just stay by my side."
However, Chu Feng did not stop there. Instead, he expanded his business and even started doing business with the royal family of a neighboring country.
After becoming well-acquainted with business dealings in neighboring countries, he even bought the identity of an imperial tutor.
More than a decade later, a neighboring country suddenly launched an attack, sending its cavalry in droves to besiege the city.
Chu Feng was a man of great righteousness and generosity, donating half of his family fortune to help a neighboring country.
After the war ended, Chu Feng, who was over fifty years old, held Ah Li's hand and looked at the flags hanging on the city gate of Suyang City, saying, "That person agreed, from now on Suyang City belongs to us."
The neighboring country won, but did not launch a major offensive. Instead, it stopped after capturing a few cities.
Su Yangcheng was among them, and was even given to Chu Feng by the new emperor of the neighboring country.
Chu Feng also donated most of his publicly known assets to the new emperor of the neighboring country, and then lived happily ever after with Ah Li in Suyang City.
