Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Fu Lin's fury

Emerald City was in turmoil as the news of what had transpired inside the Feng family was quickly spread. What had remained as a riddle up to now was what had happened. The seemingly dead young master miraculously and unexplainable is now well and fine.

"Have you guys heard of the recent occurrence in our city?" Inside a restaurant, a group of youngsters sitting around a table were cheerfully talking to each other. In their middle, a blue-robed youth who looked a little over twelve was currently leading the group in talking.

"Judging by your expression, you truly do not know. I wonder what the likes of you keep on doing, just useless." The blue-robed youth jokingly said.

"Who is useless...is it not you who likes eavesdropping on other people's business...ok hurry up and tell us." One of the youth retorted.

"Ok, ok, I will tell you then." Putting on a serious expression, the blue-robed youth narrated all that took place inside the Feng family bit by bit, not forgetting to add a few lies to keep it more interesting.

"So that's what it is, this is indeed a great story I have ever heard of. But did he die or..."

"What are you even asking... everyone knows that Feng Li did indeed die." Without waiting the others to ask, the blue-robed youth interrupted with an explanation. All the youths inside the restaurant talked for a very long time before finally leaving.

****************

At the Feng family, inside a courtyard, a red-robed youth who was roughly thirteen years old sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. He exuded a brilliant and warm presence. He had very soft skin and his long hair resting on his back, he had sword-shaped eyebrows that were perfectly fitted in place, he indeed was a peerless, handsome young man. After a long time of silence, suddenly he opened his eyes...a flashlight passed through his eyes as a cold smile formed on his face.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

On the door a knock was heard. "Come in" the red-robed youth acclaimed as if he expected it.

BANG!

The door was pushed open as a Youngman walked inside. He was Youngman who exuded a humble presence, he put on a clear respect on his face as if the young man infront of him had the authority over his life and death. After all, the young man infront of him was the only son of the Feng family's Grand elder--- Feng Bu!

"You failed." The seemingly warm and silent Feng Bu suddenly yelled as a fierce pressure filled the room, forcing the young man to fearfully and unknowingly kneel on the floor.

"I..I..I surely did all you requested me to do... i did it I swear it had really succeeded... Young master trust me." The Youngman kept explaining while frequently kowtowing on the floor.

"I trust you...whoever, this is the reward for the loyalty you showed me." With a raise of his hand, a sword appeared and suddenly decapitated the young man...he was beheaded...he died.

"Anyone who sees my real side is always fated to die, no exception ..." A surging murderous aura came forth from his body.

****************

Inside the Feng family patriarch's palace, a group of people sat around while chatting happily with each other. At the very front of the palace sat the patriarch.

"The divine spiritist has always been so difficult to hire, but with great effort, we managed to get one today. He's already outside, shall we call him in? He's the infamous rank-six divine spiritist Ruo Fu. The grand elder of the Feng family spoke.

"Yes, call him in, please." Feng Tian hurriedly spoke.

Due to the event that happened, the family decided to call upon a divine spiritist to examine Feng Li's body to see if they could find an answer to their curiosity about the incident concerning Feng Li.

After inspecting Feng Li's body for a long time, fear and confusion were on the divine spiritist's face. He had a lot of confusion. This caused the Feng family's patriarch to hurriedly speak, "Is everything fine?".

"Concerning what happened to your son's abnormalities, I'm afraid that not only I, but no one here in our mortal world can explain. But all I can say is that your son's cause of misfortune was indeed caused by a poison.''

"What...a poison, how is that even possible?" All the Feng family higher-ups were in a state of great confusion.

"It is a poison from the deadliest viper, the greenwing viper. It is a miracle that he survived." Said the divine spiritist.

"I Fu Lin promise to kill the one responsible for this." Fu Lin's body was really trembling. She was sure that her son had never left the family's mansion in the last six months so how could he have met such a beast. It was clearly a scheme which had to be unravelled soon. Fury could be seen in Fu Lin's eyes.
