In the end... It had become a gathering for his adoptive daughter?
Ridiculous! It was so ridiculous!
The elder standing behind Zong Fu was somewhat silent, but he finally opened his mouth when he saw Zong Fu was on the verge of exploding. âItâs the young master...â
He was silent for a while.
âIt was the young master who has deliberately publicized these rumors to make people hate those who had harmed Qin Feiâer.â
Zong Fu was startled.
He had thought that these were Qin Feiâerâs plans, but he had not expected it to be Zong Yi.
But it might be true. Qin Feiâer was new to this city, and even if he had taken her as his adoptive daughter, she would not be so daring to do such things.
This brat Zong Yi... Was he serious?
What did he see in Qin Feiâer?
âGrand Elder, why is this bastard Zong Yi so in love with Qin Feiâer? This Qin Feiâer... Doesnât look young anymore. I donât care if she had become that way because of the spirit herb. She will never get her youthful look back anyway! The Divine Herbs Sect has so many young and beautiful girls, so why does it have to be Qin Feiâer?â
The elder sighed lightly. âPerhaps... The young master has lost his mother since he was a child, so he is... Missing his mother?â
It was fortunate that Qin Feiâer was not here when the elder had said this. Otherwise, she probably would have been vomiting blood from anger on the spot from hearing this.
She was a twenty-eight-year-old girl, but people were already saying that she was a mother of someone who was already over twenty?
Zong Fuâs face reflected discomfort, but if these rumors were spread by Zong Yi, he would not be able to say anything more.
He was the only son he had. He loved him and took good care of him since Zong Yi was a child.
If Zong Yi was provoked, he might even try to flee with Qin Feiâer! As such, his Divine Herbs Sect would no longer have an heir.
âForget it...â Zong Fu rubbed his temples. âI donât care about these things, just let them spread rumors without affecting my Divine Herbs Sect.â
What if...
Zong Fu knew that because he had not stopped the rumors or Zong Yi back then, he had put the Divine Herbs Sect into a trap.
Would he still make such a choice today?
âThe assembly will begin tomorrow. Grand Elder, go and prepare yourself, and tell Zong Yi, this assembly is to let him choose his wife. I can indulge him before, but this time, absolutely not!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYes, Sect Master.â
The elder did a fist and palm salute and retreated.
Only Zong Fu was left inside the courtyard, standing alone in a white robe. His eyes were full of sadness and loneliness.

There were many forces within the reclusive world. Some forces had arrived several days earlier to stay at the Divine Herbs Sect. Of course, there were still other forces that came on that day.
For example, Tian Shen Manor, Deities Gate, Paramount, and... Fengyun Manor!
With each announcement, the entire place was filled with excitement. People stood up, intending to see the faces that were usually impossible to see.
âTian Shen Manor has arrived...â
âDeities Gate has arrived...â
âParamount has arrived...â
The sound of the announcement echoed through the hall, causing the cheeks of everyone present to blush with excitement.
Tian Shen Manorâs Manor Master, Gu Shi, Deities Gate Master, and Master Jiu Ming from Paramount...
Although Paramount was not as powerful as these forces, they still had a good reputation, especially the Paramountâs master, Jiu Ming.
But all of them had heard that Paramountâs master was not Master Jiu Ming, but someone else. They were curious... What kind of person was this Paramountâs master that he had been able to make Jiu Ming submit to him so willingly?
