Chapter 690: The Conspiracy Begins
Qingluan is a person with a clear mind. Although she doesn't say many things, she understands very well in her heart. It's just that understanding too much is also a burden. She would rather not know anything herself, and maybe she can live a happier life.
Lin Feng saw the helplessness on her face, and he sighed and said, "Senior sister, sometimes dreams require some sacrifices to be obtained. For example, in the current situation, even if you want to avoid these disputes, you can't escape it after all, so it's better to face it well."
"Then what you mean..." Qingluan was shaken. She knew that she could not escape. No one in the palace could help her. If she wanted to rescue her father, she had to do this.
Lin Feng could not stay in this place for too long. In a hurry, he thought of a temporary solution, first asking Xuanyuan Chen to help tell the third princess of Fengcheng about the return of his hometown, and then he wanted to fight wits and courage with the Huo family.
Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to endure the war. It is better for the two families to break out in one fell swoop. Regardless of whether the fight is to the death or not, it should be a good thing for the royal family.
Lin Feng hopes to get rid of the Huo family, and it is best if the Xuanyuan family can change slightly. Now Xuanyuan Mo completely trusts him, and as long as he helps him get the entire Xuanyuan family, he will definitely let the Xuanyuan family swear allegiance. At that time, he will kill two birds with one stone and there will be no trouble.
Lin Feng planned everything, and there seemed to be no place for Qingluan to intervene. The fact is that her actions are now restricted, so what else can she do?
She warned Lin Feng: "I advise you to make the worst plan. Even if the Xuanyuan family is very powerful, Xuanyuan Chen's cultivation level is only in the Nascent Soul stage. If he wants to fight Huo Wuchen, it is probably a little bit worse."
Of course, Lin Feng knew this situation, so the only one who could check and balance the Huo family was Liuxian Sect. He believed that if he really got into a disastrous position, Liuxian Sect would not be able to sit idly by.
Qingluan could not see a trace of fear in Lin Feng's eyes, and had to admit that Lin Feng was a bold guy. Now she was going to hand over her future to such a person. Is this really good?
Lin Feng was not really so confident, but if he didn't do some things, they would still not be able to get rid of the trouble.
If it ends up dead, then even if you fight hard, then what's wrong. He looked at Qingluan, and the look gave her firm belief, and Qingluan actually nodded subconsciously. She didn't really believe in Lin Feng, but at that moment she trusted Lin Feng's eyes.
"Senior sister, I have to leave. Don't worry, you will be free soon." Lin Feng left quietly after saying that.
The room returned to peace, but Qingluan's mood improved a lot, thanks to Lin Feng. Although she had never done anything, she felt inexplicably relieved.
Lin Feng came and went to the palace so easily. Although he was a little suspicious, nothing happened, so he put this strange feeling aside. Not long after he left, a dark shadow flashed away. If Lin Feng saw it, he would probably be surprised again.
Xuanyuan Mo was called to the study by Xuanyuan Chen. He felt a little nervous. After all, Lin Feng taught him everything before, and he himself did not have such great wisdom. If he was wrong in front of the old man, how should he handle himself?
Seeing him restless, Xuanyuan Chen was a little surprised: "The housekeeper told me all the things you did behind your back recently. I thought you were very brave and could move the people of the Huo family openly. I didn't expect that if you saw your dear grandfather, would you be afraid?"
There was something else in this sentence. Xuanyuan Mo took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa, I don't know if I should talk about it or not."
"There is nothing to say or not to say here. I just wanted to know your plan and called you here." Xuanyuan Chen did not regard Xuanyuan Mo as his grandson at this moment, but a trustworthy friend.
He is very clear about the crisis facing the Xuanyuan family now, but because he is in his position, he is worried about many things, and he is reluctant to do things and cannot save the entire Xuanyuan family. However, Xuanyuan Mo does not have such an idea. The decisions he made may be able to solve the things he has been worried about in recent days.
After thinking about it, Xuanyuan Mo decided to recommend Lin Feng to his grandfather. If such a talent stands behind him, his work will be limited. What grandfather needs most now is talents who can help him.
Xuanyuan Mo really wanted to help Xuanyuan Chen solve his inner depression. It was just that he was weak after all, and he was not the kind of person who liked to rely on Lin Feng to climb to a high position.
"Grandpa, I have been able to do so many things recently, but thanks to someone's help. If it weren't for him, maybe I wouldn't have been able to realize it. Now it's the time when the Xuanyuan family is using people, so I think he should be introduced to grandpa, and he can help you with more things."
When Xuanyuan Chen heard this, he was not very happy, but his face was gloomy. He lived so old that he could see things much more thoroughly than Xuanyuan Mo. Suddenly, a person of unknown origin helped Xuanyuan Mo so much, and this person's identity itself had problems.
However, the old fox couldn't express his thoughts all at once. He still had to meet this person first and then consider how to deal with this person.
Xuanyuan Mo still thought things were simple, and he didn't know that his long-term talk would cause trouble for Lin Feng. He heard that Xuanyuan Chen planned to summon Lin Feng, so he was so happy that he was so obsessed with it.
Looking at such a simple Xuanyuan Mo, Xuanyuan Chen was a little disappointed. He thought Xuanyuan Mo had grown up and became scheming all of a sudden, but he didn't expect that he was still in his original nature. But he liked this child because of his simple heart.
Xuanyuan Mo returned to the place, and Lin Feng had already returned, and before he could take a sip of water, he was startled by Xuanyuan Mo who suddenly broke into the room.
After Xuanyuan Mo told the matter, Lin Feng really wanted to kill this guy who was not good enough, but there was no way. He also had to use Xuanyuan Mo. He was the best chess piece for him to use. It would definitely not work if he killed him like this.
"Since the Duke of the State wants to see me, I have no choice but to take me there." Lin Feng was able to accept reality at this moment. Some things cannot be solved by complaining about each other.
Xuanyuan Chen actually met Lin Feng in the study, which made Lin Feng a little flattered. However, the other party has lived longer than him, so he is probably not so easy to fool, so he has to be careful.
Xuanyuan Moben also wanted to follow him, but was stopped by the butler: "Young Master Mo, let's wait outside for a while."
"Then... I understand, Lin Feng, be careful." He reminded him with some concern.
Does this guy still know how to worry about his safety? Why didn’t he listen to his advice and say nothing now? It’s okay now. There is no room for replacing these things.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng stepped into the study room. Xuanyuan Chen sat at the desk. He was reading a book and did not look up to see Lin Feng.
This behavior is actually a bit disdainful of him, but Lin Feng didn't care. Instead, he bowed to the other party respectfully, and then said: "The villain has met the Duke."
Xuanyuan Chen didn't say anything, and Lin Feng continued to remain silent. The two seemed to be in a deadlock. They just didn't speak, and it took more than an hour to sit and stand.
Xuanyuan Mo, who had been waiting outside for a long time but had no results, couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted to go in and see the situation. But the butler stopped him outside, obviously he wouldn't let him break in.
"Young Master Mo, it's late at night, otherwise you'd better go back to the house and rest first. After the master finished chatting with the other party, he would naturally put the person back." The butler could see that Xuanyuan Mo was very worried about Lin Feng, so he spoke to persuade him.
Xuanyuan Mo was still a little worried when he thought about it, so he said, "No, I'll wait here."
Lin Feng went to see his grandfather because of him. If there was anything, he naturally wanted to know it as soon as possible. In fact, he also knew that his grandfather was not a person who would trust others casually, but at this moment he hoped that Lin Feng could gain his grandfather’s trust.
In this way, he does not need to be sneaky in his future. After staying in such a big family for a long time, he will not be able to remain dull all the time. He needs someone to give advice for him so that he can live a peaceful and worry-free life.
Lin Feng is undoubtedly his best choice, and he has not been moved by the money he has received in the past few days, nor has he asked for any status and power. So at this time, he really believed wholeheartedly that this person was the one he was worried about being around him.
Time passed by minute by minute. Lin Feng had nothing on the surface, but he began to admire the old man in his heart. He actually thought of using this method to test himself. However, if he gave up so easily, how could he make so many old foxes love him?
Another half an hour passed, Lin Feng stood there motionless, and finally Xuanyuan Chen spoke: "All people who can tolerate things that others cannot tolerate are from great origins. You are not ordinary children at first glance. Why did you come to my Xuanyuan family? What is the purpose?"
Finally speaking, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. His patience was limited. If he continued to remain silent, he would not guarantee that he could continue to calm down.
"My Lord Duke praised me. Actually, my identity is not important, but the Huo family has become a major concern for you now, right?" Lin Feng's voice was very calm, without any tension or fear.
He did this so that the old fox, Xuanyuan Chen, could not understand his background. Although Xuanyuan Chen lived older than him, he knew much more than this old fox.
In this world of cultivation, everything is still the same as in ancient times. I don’t know why it has not developed into the so-called modern world, but in this way, the wisdom is obviously lagging behind more than a little.
In fact, Lin Feng really didn't know something. When the monk who ascended immortal divided this world into two parallel worlds, the cultivation world was dormant for a period of time, so the history here was thousands of years later than the human world where Lin Feng was located.
But these are not important. In the cultivation world, the things that humans invented in order to make their lives comfortable are of no use to them. Therefore, over time, the cultivation world has maintained this current situation.
