Chapter 1293: The Crown Prince’s Attitude Toward Feng Wu
The atmosphere created by the painting was so profound that before one knew it, they were completely absorbed.
Feng Wu hung the painting on the wall and sat down in front of it with her legs crossed. She then studied it with unblinking eyes.
Chaoge and Qiuling tried to make as little noise as possible, fearing that they might disturb Feng Wu.
Seeing the way Feng Wu sat there, absorbed in the painting, Chaoge and Qiuling exchanged looks and left the room, closing the door behind them.
Everyone in Fallen Star Yard cared about Feng Wu.
“Has Miss Wu found the answer yet?” asked Granny Zhao.
Qiuling gave her a wry smile. “Miss Wu has been sitting there for hours already.”
Granny Zhao frowned. “All we have is a painting. That’s so difficult.”
Qiuling nodded. “You don’t say. We’re supposed to guess the address from a painting alone without any other hints. That’s impossible.”
Chaoge frowned. “If we can’t find Master Rong Yang, Xiao Wu won’t have a proper weapon, and she may fail her challenge.”
Qiuling said, “A lot of people have already heard that Miss Wu is going to take the challenge. It’ll be so humiliating for her if she fails.”
–
They were standing by the wall as they chatted, but they didn’t know that someone had been eavesdropping on the other side of the wall.
“Feng Wu? Skipping a grade? Master Rong Yang? Fallen Star Sword?”
It was none other than Zuo Qingyu.
Dugu Mengxi was here at the Feng manor for the marriage proposal that day, and Zuo Qingyu and Dugu Yamo had tagged along. It just so happened that they overheard the conversation.
The two of them quietly went back to their carriage.
Dugu Yamo asked, “Is Feng Wu skipping Year 1? Qingyu, aren’t you in Year 2 now? Do you know about this?”
Zuo Qingyu took a deep breath. She had been busy with something at home and hadn’t gone to school for a few days. She didn’t expect something so major to happen while she was away.
“I’ll ask around.” And that was the first thing she did when she went back home.
The Zuo family was well-connected, and Zuo Qingyu was treated like a goddess in Initial. She was able to find out everything in no time.
In less than an hour, she received the information she wanted.
“Feng Wu has entered Initial.
“And Shu Yunruo walked her up the mountain.
“Chief Qiao rejected her because of Miss Qiao Yi.
“And Feng Wu is taking the Dragon’s Gate challenge in seven days?”
Crumpling the paper up in her hand, Zuo Qingyu gritted her teeth.
“Feng Wu, I’m actually impressed. Shu Yunruo is a direct descendant of the Gongshu family, and he’s never been close to anybody. Why did he show you the way the first time he met you? What’s your relationship with him?
“Dragon’s Gate…” Zuo Qingyu knew that she alone wasn’t capable enough to stop Feng Wu, so she gathered the information together and went to talk to Zuo Ming.
Master Zuo was in a bad mood these days.
His luck had been bad ever since the incident at the World Tower the other day. Nothing seemed to go his way, be it his cultivation or work.
Zuo Qingyu cut to the chase as soon as she walked in.
“Father, I think this is a great opportunity for us.” Zuo Qingyu’s eyes flickered. “If Feng Wu wants to get into Year 2, let’s make sure that she stays in Dragon’s Gate and never comes out!”
Zuo Ming felt a phantom headache as soon as he heard Feng Wu’s name.
