Chapter 1815: Face-slapping, Act Six (5)
“Ten times!” The idea made Zuo Qingxian shudder. “That girl was only eight years old, but she had ten times more talent and had suppressed her cultivation level. Only after that was she on the same level as Qingluan. How could Qingluan be her match?”
The second prince’s eyes flickered. “Are you sure about that?”
Zuo Qingxian smiled bitterly. “Our elder wouldn’t lie to us. Moreover, the Zuo family were the last people who wanted to accept that reality, but it didn’t change the fact that it was the truth. Feng Wu was meant to be the chosen one!”
The second prince drew in his breath.
Zuo Qingxian said, “What could the Zuo family do? Could we just let Feng Wu grow up? Once she gained her full strength, what would become of Qingluan? The two genius girls of the imperial capital? In a year or two, Qingluan would fall behind and become a joke! Her and our entire family!”
The second prince was speechless.
Holding the Spiritual Fossil Stone, Feng Wu recorded every single word Zuo Qingxian said.
Luckily, she had the stone with her.
This could get very interesting in the future!
Zuo Qingxian had no idea that his words were being recorded.
Nor did it occur to him that the hall had a second layer.
He wiped away his sweat.
“Since we’re on the subject, there’s nothing to hide anymore. Back then, the Master of Firmament Palace came down the mountain and saw Feng Wu. She thought that Feng Wu’s True Phoenix Blood was the most suitable for studying Soaring Phoenix Swordplay. Hence, she wanted to take Feng Wu in as her last disciple.
“That’s Firmament Palace, the largest sect in the Junwu Empire! If Feng Wu got that chance, what would happen to the Zuo family? What about Qingluan?
“The master came down the mountain because the elder of our family invited her. She met Qingluan first and was satisfied with her. She was going to take in Qingluan!
“But she changed her mind after she saw Feng Wu. She didn’t even respect her friendship with our elder!
“She said that had it not been for Feng Wu, who was a better candidate, she would have chosen Qingluan.
“But when the best was available, why should she go for something less ideal?”
Zuo Qingxian clenched his fists, and blue veins popped on his forehead.
“Your Highness, do you know what was the most frustrating part?” Zuo Qingxian clenched his jaw.
The second prince asked curiously, “What?”
“The most frustrating part was that the Master of Firmament Palace went to see Feng Wu in person and asked Feng Wu if she wanted to go back to Firmament Palace with her and become her last disciple.
“Do you know what that means?
“The last disciple is usually the master’s favorite disciple, and it also means that all her senior brothers and sisters will be her patrons!
“But Feng Wu was only an eight-year-old girl, and she said no right away!
“She threw away that great opportunity just like that!
“No one should waste such a precious opportunity like that!
“Isn’t she abominable?!” Zuo Qingxian clenched his fists.
“Yes, you are.” The white fairy grinned at Feng Wu. “Zuo Qingluan really had every reason to hate you.”
Feng Wu snorted.
The white fairy said, “But I had no idea that you were so talented. Even that old woman from Firmament Palace wanted you.”
