17: Feng Shangning, the Lady of Fortune

Because, if his scheme had succeeded today, his entire Feng Clan might have hit the jackpot.

Princess Shangning was the most talented among all his daughters, and Lin Xiao, as a disciple of the Lin Clan from the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain, not only had a noble status but also Heaven-Defying talent.

If the two were to marry and have children, how could his Great Wind Dynasty not prosper for eternity?

But Feng Zhenglong didn't know that...

At this moment, in Feng Imperial City, within a grand manor known as the General's Residence.

A young man with a somewhat handsome Face was staring at the location of the Feng Imperial Palace with a look of humiliation and gloom.

He was actually a Rebirth!

"I never thought I, Mo Fan, would be Rebirth! Heaven is helping me! Heaven is helping me!" Mo Fan laughed loudly.

"My good brother Lin Yi, don't worry, it won't be long before I return to the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain to find you, and then help you kill that cruel elder brother of yours."

"But before that, I must first deal with Feng Zhenglong, that old scoundrel."

"My father rendered great service to you back then, but later, you saw his achievements overshadowed yours and cruelly murdered him. I will definitely avenge this!"

Mo Fan said sinisterly, a maturity beyond his age revealed in his eyes.

"I wonder if Ning'er will blame me after she finds out about this."

"But even if he is your father, I will still kill him. However, for your sake, I might give him a quick death," Mo Fan added.

When he mentioned the name of the girl called Ning'er, a warm current flowed through his heart, as if touching the softest part of his inner being.

However, he didn't know why, but when he spoke the name Ning'er, a very bad premonition arose in his heart.

The feeling was as if someone was about to take something very important away from him.

But Mo Fan didn't overthink it, attributing it to the after-effects of his recent Rebirth.

After he discarded the distracting thoughts in his mind, he began to Cultivate, entering a profound and mysterious state.

As Mo Fan Cultivated, a black branch in his Sea of Consciousness began to shake violently, emitting endless Chaos Power.

"This branch of the chaos tree that brought me Rebirth is truly powerful! It truly lives up to being the remnant of the Innate Great Dao Treasure Tree, the chaos tree. I wonder if there will be a chance for it to regrow and develop in the future," Mo Fan said.

His entire body's Qi and blood erupted, and the roars of Dragons and tigers echoed within him.

Immediately after, his Cultivation began to skyrocket at a visible pace.

Body Forging Realm First Level... Body Forging Realm Second Level... Body Forging Realm Third Level... Body Forging Realm Peak... Foundation Establishment Realm First Level... In just a few hours, he entered the Foundation Establishment Realm.

If anyone were here to see Mo Fan, they would surely be incredibly shocked.

Because,

Mo Fan, the only son of the Mo family, who had been a good-for-nothing for over a decade, could actually Cultivate!!!

Although Mo Fan's status before his Rebirth was noble, he was unfortunately a good-for-nothing who couldn't Cultivate, a fact often discussed by the people of the Great Wind Dynasty.

It was precisely because of this that the entire General's Residence also became a laughingstock.

~~~~~~~~~~

However, compared to Mo Fan's exhilaration at his Rebirth, Lin Xiao, who was currently in the Qianxing Palace of the Great Wind Imperial Palace, was a bit bewildered.

"Please, Young Master, save Ning'er! Ning'er feels so uncomfortable, Ning'er feels so uncomfortable!"

Lin Xiao: "..."

What the hell? What kind of melodramatic plot is this? And I actually ran into it.

Lin Xiao looked at the girl in front of him, feeling a bit confused, unsure of what to do.

He had been eating his meal peacefully when a group of eunuchs came in carrying a large jade tray.

They put it down and ran, and before leaving, they even kindly closed the door for him.

Lin Xiao didn't even need to think to know that this must be the doing of Feng Zhenglong, the Emperor of the Great Wind Dynasty.

This old man is very cunning; he really went all out to win him over.

Lin Xiao felt a bit speechless and looked at the woman who called herself Ning'er.

At first glance, she was clearly not a girl from an ordinary family; she exuded nobility from head to toe, and faintly, there was Dragon Qi of the imperial palace entwined around her.

She should be a descendant of the Feng Imperial Family, or perhaps even that Feng Zhenglong's daughter.

But the current Lin Xiao, facing such a beautiful woman, really couldn't bring himself to act.

First, he was only sixteen years old, and that 'thing' hadn't fully developed yet.

Just considering the identity of the woman in front of him, Lin Xiao didn't want to touch her.

It wasn't because of her status as an imperial princess or county princess, but because of her identity as a Child of Destiny.

That's right, a Child of Destiny.

Just now, when this woman was carried in, Lin Xiao used his Luck Golden Eyes to observe her.

It wasn't a big deal not to look, but once he looked, he saw a big deal.

Through Lin Xiao's Luck Golden Eyes, he saw that the woman's entire body was resplendent with golden light, and purple Qi rose three thousand feet to the east, truly extraordinary.

Her Luck Qi was comparable to Lin Yi's, only slightly less. It was clear she would be a powerful figure in the future.

If Lin Xiao were to 'do that' to her while she was unconscious, what if she resented him when she woke up?

Lin Xiao truly couldn't do something that would needlessly create an enemy for himself.

Although he wasn't afraid of trouble, he wouldn't actively seek it out.

In Lin Xiao's view, in this Xuanhuan world, only the Child of Destiny or Child of Destiny were not to be provoked.

Because, based on Lin Xiao's past experience reading web novels, the Child of Destiny and Child of Destiny are the protagonists of this world.

They are absolutely unkillable, and the more you fight them, the stronger they might become, just like cockroaches.

So, adhering to this idea, Lin Xiao would absolutely not actively provoke a Child of Destiny or Child of Destiny.

"An open spear is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to guard against. Provoking such an unstable factor, isn't that just asking for trouble?" Lin Xiao chuckled in his heart.

With the thought of being extremely cautious in mind, he was about to directly throw the woman out.

But just then, the System's voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

"Ding! Detecting the Host's current situation, providing the Host with three choices now!"

Immediately after, the familiar blue light screen appeared.

"Choice One: Throw the Child of Destiny, Feng Shangning, out the door, maximizing hostility, and obtain the Great Dao Treasure Arts: Great Disintegration Art!"

"Choice Two: Use your body to help the Child of Destiny, Feng Shangning, dispel the medicinal effects, gaining her hatred, and obtain the Advanced Saint-Grade Cultivation Technique: Grand Yin and Yang Art!"

"Choice Three: Use precious medicine to help the Child of Destiny, Feng Shangning, dispel the medicinal effects, gaining her gratitude, and obtain chaos loam!"

"What the hell? Why does throwing her out directly maximize hostility, while using my body only simply gains hatred?"

After seeing the three choices given by the System, Lin Xiao was instantly dumbfounded.

He really couldn't figure out why...
