Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 717: Chapter 584: The Father Bullies the Son, but the Mother Shows Up

”Feng Lan, Feng Xun doesn’t know martial arts; you just have to capture him alive.”

The Empress, fearing that Feng Lan would be too heavy-handed, hastily reminded him.

Doesn’t know martial arts?

That silly woman Qing Feng, how on earth did she raise her son?

Feng Lan was fine not listening, but once he heard this, he was so angry that he almost lost his breath.

His Feng Royal Mansion has always been valiant and warlike, with each generation of Prince Feng being called the War God, and now he had a son who didn’t know martial arts!

Then what could this youngster do?

Dissatisfied, Feng Lan glared at Feng Xun with almost a glare, a fierce one at that.

It appeared that this boy, he had nothing but a face presentable to the public.

Relying solely on a face, what is that? He’s just a pretty boy!

That silly woman, Qing Feng, what on earth was she doing!

She couldn’t even raise a son properly, and thinking of Qing Feng only added to Feng Lan’s discomfort.

That woman actually died, without his knowledge, dead.

How did she die, how could she...

Feng Lan’s mind drifted, yet his hands had already withdrawn the Primordial Power, moving with swift steps, launching several palms in no time.

Wu Zhong was also forced to retreat step by step.

At this moment, Wu Zhong had not only to protect Ye Lingyue behind him but also to dodge Feng Lan’s attacks, which was quite troublesome.

In his life, Wu Zhong had never been in such a sorry state as he was today.

Ye Lingyue, shielded behind Wu Zhong, also had a solemn look in her beautiful eyes.

Something was off with Feng Xun.

Could he actually know martial arts?

If he knew, why wouldn’t he take action?

”That silly woman Qing Feng, did she only teach you how to dodge?” As Feng Lan and Wu Zhong engaged in their exchange, dodging and weaving, they had already passed more than thirty moves.

Not only Feng Lan, but even the Empress and Chen Tuo watched with shock and alarm.

Feng Xun was able to dodge Feng Lan’s attacks by understanding the moves of martial arts.

”Don’t you dare mention her, what right do you have to preach to me?” Wu Zhong couldn’t hold back anymore, clenched his fist, and was about to blast away the man before him who bore a face about eighty to ninety percent similar to his own.

”Bang”

A fierce collision.

Wu Zhong was stunned, his fist was still right by his side.

In front of him, there now stood a gaunt figure.

It was a woman, dressed in black, like a ghostly figure.

The one who stopped that crucial punch for Wu Zhong was none other than the Earth Venerate from Tongtian Pavilion.

”Earth Venerate, what do you mean by this!” The Empress didn’t expect the Earth Venerate to intervene out of nowhere.

The Earth Venerate from Tongtian Pavilion was always mysterious; the Empress was completely unclear about her strength or her temper.

Only because she was the junior sister of Heavenly Venerate did the Empress treat her with some courtesy.

”There’s no hidden meaning, just as Prince Feng said, this man does not have the right to lecture Prince Feng.” The Earth Venerate’s thin body stood there stiffly.

From Ye Lingyue’s perspective, she could see that the Earth Venerate’s hands, which had long lost their color, were clenched tightly together in anger.

”It’s my business to discipline my son, what’s it to you, get out of the way!” Feng Lan inexplicably felt a rush of irritation.

He looked at this woman, barely recognizable as human, ghostly in appearance, the agitation in his heart intensifying more and more.

”I have to interfere, I am the good friend of Princess Qingfeng... On her deathbed, she entrusted me and my senior brother to take good care of Prince Feng.” Earth Venerate’s voice carried a tone of outrage, and for a moment, she almost blurted out her own identity.

After Princess Qingfeng was saved by Heavenly Venerate and awoke, she began to suspect that Feng Lan’s death was related to Empress Qing Shuang.

She spared no effort to secretly gather evidence and finally noticed some clues.

The misfortune that befell Feng Lan and even the death of the previous Emperor, were all related to Qing Shuang.

Alas, Qing Feng’s power was too weak, and she was also concerned about her young son who was still in the hands of the Empress, so she dared not take action over the years.

She could only lurk in the dark, vigilant of the Empress’s every move.

Earth Venerate had long discovered the Empress’s intentions towards Feng Xun.

At the age of ten, Feng Xun already bore a striking resemblance to the young Feng Lan.

As he grew older, he became less clingy to the Empress than when he was a child.

Then one day, while Little Feng Xun was sound asleep in the sleeping palace, Earth Venerate found that the Empress had come to Feng Xun’s chamber alone. She gazed at Feng Xun on the bed with fervent emotion in her eyes.

The Empress, looking fondly at Little Feng Xun, murmured,

”Xinxin, grow up quickly. Your auntie can hardly wait to see you become a great man like your father.”

At that moment, Earth Venerate felt as if her blood was rushing to her head.

Shame and rage filled her, and for a moment, Earth Venerate wished she could rush forward and fight to the death with the Empress.

This woman harmed not only Feng Lan but also coveted the child she had with Feng Lan.

Fortunately, the Empress did not do anything else that crossed the line. After she left, Earth Venerate had Heavenly Venerate persuade Housekeeper Mu of Feng Residence to have Little Feng Xun leave the Imperial Palace under the pretext of needing to learn to manage Feng Residence’s affairs.

Afterwards, Earth Venerate used various means, sometimes even disguising herself, to appear beside Little Feng Xun in the guise of a servant from Feng Residence, teaching him how to manage its affairs.

Eventually, through Heavenly Venerate, she indirectly convinced Feng Xun to go to Daxia to recuperate.

Finally, after her step-by-step efforts, Feng Xun was far from that evildoer Qing Shuang.

She thought that Feng Xun could avoid all this, but unexpectedly, the events of this night have brought the nightmare back.

And this nightmare was because of Feng Lan!

Tonight, when the Empress suggested that Feng Xun should escort her back to her sleeping palace, Earth Venerate had a very bad premonition.

Empress Qing Shuang, as expected, had not given up.

Without any hesitation, Earth Venerate followed.

What comforted Earth Venerate was that not long after, a eunuch led Chen Tuo there.

Just like what Feng Xun previously thought, Earth Venerate also believed that once Chen Tuo arrived, the Empress, out of respect for the monarch-subject ceremony, would have to release Feng Xun.

Feng Xun could take the opportunity to leave, but who knew that the Empress would blatantly tear her mask and even forcibly keep Feng Xun.

In that critical situation, Earth Venerate was ready to expose her identity to save Feng Xun.

What Earth Venerate never expected was that in that situation, Feng Lan would appear.

Learning that Feng Lan was actually not dead, Earth Venerate forgot to act for a moment.

He is alive, those eyes, those eyebrows, that aura; it was truly Feng Lan.

But, very quickly, Earth Venerate’s heart sank to the bottom.

That was Feng Lan, yet it was not Feng Lan.

Feng Lan had forgotten both her and Feng Xun. He only remembered Qing Shuang. He was even ready to make things difficult for her Xinxin at the mere words of Qing Shuang!

”Friend of Qing Feng?” The Empress, on guard, sized up Earth Venerate. She was aware of the relationship between Qing Feng and Heavenly Venerate, unexpectedly, Qing Feng also had a deep connection with Earth Venerate.

Wu Zhong also felt bewildered, about to interrogate when a very soft voice from Ye Lingyue reached his ear.

”Earth Venerate is one of our own, trust her.”
