"Chen? Chen Jiusi!"
Feng Xuan stared as the Red Tassel Spear flew past his head, then quickly turned to look toward the gate.
He caught sight of Chen Jie at a glance.
At that moment, Chen Jie was clad in black attire, his waist tied with a white mourning band. Today was the day Feng Xuan would become the Hall Master, as well as the seventh day after Peng Shizhong's death!
Initially forced by circumstances, he had fled from the Spring Breeze Theater and had not even attended his adoptive father's funeral.
Zhou Chu had said that according to old traditions since Peng Shizhong had died a violent death, his coffin should have been kept above ground for seven days before burial. However, Feng Xuan was in such a hurry that he buried him after the usual three days.
The reason was to not delay his inauguration seven days later.
