After Accidentally Marrying My Sister-in-law, My 10,000x Cultivation Begins

188: Once the dust settles, return to the sect.Huangfu He argued, ”I said Rotten Wood wasn’t killed by Feng Ming. He doesn’t have that ability. Now that you’re back, help me find a way to break out of this predicament.”

Huangfu Mo gave a bitter smile, ”You know that there isn’t much I can do.”

”Don’t worry, I won’t drag you into this. I also know you won’t acknowledge the Huangfu Family and only recognize me as your elder brother. I won’t blame you for the survival of the Huangfu Family. I just want to ask you for a favor now.”

Hearing this, Huangfu Mo remained silent for a moment before finally agreeing.

”Fine, tell me what to do.”

Huangfu He laughed and said, ”First we... then... you just need to...”

On the other side, Feng Ming and Ye Feng were walking on the way back to the Feng Family.

Feng Ming curiously asked Ye Feng about the matter between Huangfu He and Huangfu Mo.

Simply put, Huangfu He’s father had a drunken affair that resulted in a child, but he didn’t want to upset Huangfu He’s mother, so he ignored the child.

On the contrary, Huangfu He was very affectionate toward this extra younger brother.

Later, Huangfu Mo ranked among the best in the Liangzhou Trial and joined the Imperial Forest Guard.

But regarding the Huangfu Family, he refused to acknowledge anyone except for Huangfu He, who had given him warmth during his youth.

As for Huangfu Mo’s mother, although she was taken into the manor at the time, she didn’t live long due to falling ill from depression.

To put it bluntly, Huangfu Mo was a poor soul lacking both paternal and maternal love; his only source of warmth was Huangfu He.

Huangfu Mo’s heart was likely very conflicted, so while their relationship wasn’t great, he wouldn’t stand by and do nothing.

Besides, investigating the price of Medicinal Pills was his job, so his coming here was also a convenient favor.

Ye Feng looked at Feng Ming and asked curiously, ”Brother Jeff, tell me, is the plan you discussed with the City Lord actually feasible?”

”I’m still a bit uneasy. Even if Huangfu He doesn’t believe you killed Rotten Wood, the fact remains that he’s dead. He couldn’t possibly continue taking risks, could he?”

”And having me stay there, will it really be useful?”

Feng Ming chuckled, ”Actually, having you stay at the Feng Family isn’t for you to protect me, but to make Huangfu He completely believe that I wasn’t the one who killed Rotten Wood!”

”Only then will he continue to make a move against me. Besides, a normal person wouldn’t act recklessly, but Huangfu He is currently like a cornered dog acting in desperation; he has no more time.”

”Setting aside the right time and place, with Huangfu Mo around, he has an extra helper. Given that he can’t afford to delay, he will definitely take action.” Ye Feng nodded and pressed further, ”Then tell me, what method exactly are you going to use to make Huangfu He act?”

Feng Ming shook his head, ”Heaven’s secrets must not be revealed. Once the news leaks, it won’t work anymore.”

Ye Feng sighed helplessly, having a love-hate relationship with Feng Ming.

He loved his strategy, yet hated his strategy as well.

Having such a person as a friend is incredibly safe, but as an enemy, it’s terrifying.

Returning to the Feng Family, after settling Ye Feng in, Feng Ming took Jiang Shuwan back to their room.

As soon as they entered the room, Feng Ming called Feng Da over and gave him some instructions.

He handed him a letter written in advance and told him to show it to Feng Mian.

”This matter is of great importance. Don’t use the network, and make sure he finds a way to get this done properly tomorrow.”

Feng Da nodded, took the letter, and left.

Jiang Shuwan looked curious.

”Husband, why are Big Brother and Lu Qianqian also in your plan?”

Feng Ming chuckled, ”Not only are they needed, but they are also a crucial part.”

”Let me tell you about the details of the plan.”

Jiang Shuwan was stunned, ”I can hear this?”

Although she was very curious about what Feng Ming’s plan was, the fact that he didn’t tell Ye Feng meant it was very important.

Jiang Shuwan was actually quite hesitant.

Feng Ming pinched her nose, ”Silly girl, you are my wife. There’s nothing my own people can’t hear.”

After saying that, Feng Ming began to explain.

In reality, Feng Ming wanted to use Feng Mian to leak the information to Huangfu Yunyan that he had already returned the Nascent Soul Destruction Formation to Hua Dieer.

Then use Huangfu Yunyan to relay it to Huangfu He.

This way, even if Huangfu He was still a bit hesitant before...

Once he learned that Feng Ming was previously just putting on a front and had only rented the Nascent Soul Destruction Formation, and being unable to afford the high rental fees, had already returned it while they hadn’t taken action, he would definitely be unable to restrain himself.

”You returned it? I didn’t even know!”

Jiang Shuwan was shocked; she didn’t even know such important news.

Feng Ming smiled, ”Only Eldest Uncle’s Wife and I know this news.”

Jiang Shuwan didn’t think much of it; her husband must have his reasons for doing so.

Jiang Shuwan admired and acknowledged Feng Ming from the bottom of her heart.

However, she still had some doubts.

”Why are you so sure that Huangfu Yunyan will tell this news to Huangfu He?”

Feng Ming ruffled Jiang Shuwan’s hair, ”That’s not hard to guess. Although I didn’t kill her brother and father, their deaths are related to me. Yet she can quietly Cultivate in the Lingxiao Sect; that’s definitely not normal.”

”The reason she hasn’t sought revenge or taken action is simply that she’s holding back something big, waiting for an opportunity to deal me a fatal blow.”

After hearing this, Jiang Shuwan nodded, ”In that case, Huangfu He will certainly be unable to resist bringing people to kill you. Ye Feng’s presence is to make him believe even more that you don’t have the ability to kill Rotten Wood. This way, his determination to kill you will be even firmer.”

”Smart, as expected of my wife. Here’s a kiss as a reward.”

Having said that, Feng Ming gave her a loud kiss.

Jiang Shuwan’s face immediately turned red.

Feng Ming said with a smile, ”Wife, no one will come to disturb us tonight. Let’s continue Dual Cultivation.”

Jiang Shuwan feigned resistance while welcoming his advances, and together they celebrated their love.

On the other side, the Huangfu Family.

Seeing the breakfast brought by the servant, Huangfu Mo couldn’t help but sigh.

Who would have thought that the breakfast of the once-flourishing Huangfu Family would consist of just a few steamed buns and a plate of pickles?

Such a breakfast was truly as simple as it could get.

Even when he had no status in the Huangfu Family back then, the meals were much better than this.

Looking at this breakfast, he could finally understand why Huangfu He was so anxious to kill Feng Ming!

Clearly, the Huangfu Family really couldn’t hold on anymore.

At the Feng Family, Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan were also eating breakfast.

While eating, Jiang Shuwan looked at Feng Ming and asked, ”Husband, are we returning to the Sect today or staying? Will Huangfu He get suspicious?”

Feng Ming shook his head, put down his chopsticks, and said, ”At a time like this, we should stay at the Feng Family. After all, Huangfu Mo has come to Qingyang City, clearly to cause trouble for the Feng Family. If we went to the Sect now, it would arouse suspicion.”

”We’ll stay right here at the Feng Family and go nowhere. I have a feeling that the Huangfu Family’s affairs will settle within a few days. Once this matter is resolved, we’ll return to the Sect.”
