Chapter 1444: War Clouds Gather 265
of their fathers and give them a chance to redeem themselves."Feng Lingxi walked behind Empress Cen and kneaded her shoulders, "Empress, Yao Hua doesn't feel wronged. This time it was all because Yao...Feng Lingxi looked at Lu's wife, who was full of energy, while she herself was overcome with drowsiness.
"Xier, right now it's just the two of us. There are some things I don't want to say in front of your grandmother. Just the two of us, I want to show you something."
Feng Lingxi looked at Madam Lu with curiosity as she went down to retrieve a box from the cabinet. The box was locked and seemed quite old.
"Do you know what Lu's family used to do"
"According to Lu Nian, he was in the jade business."
Feng Lingxi lightly said, "This is also why everyone in their family wears an invaluable jade pendant, because the family makes them."
Mrs. Lu nodded, "You're right, the Lu family's main industry is the jade industry, but that's not important. What's important is that people from the Lu family are born with a special ability, which is to sense the presence of jade."
Feng Lingxi stared at Lu Fu, her brows furrowed slightly. "Madam wouldn't think I have such abilities, would you"
"Yes, this ability only exists in women, men do not have this ability."
Windling's eyes dimmed upon hearing this.
Originally, the Lu family wanted a daughter so badly because of their appraisal abilities, but she wasn't the real Feng Lingxi, so where did her appraisal abilities come from.
"Is Lady Lu testing to see if I have this ability"
Feng Lingxi's tone was noticeably colder than before. Lu Fu could tell and her expression stiffened slightly as she explained, "Do you think the Lu family found you to test your abilities"
Isn't it
Feng Lingxi narrowed her eyes, her tone clearly displeased.
Mrs. Lu shook her head, opened the box, and inside was a piece of crystal that was crystal clear and very beautiful.
“This is the heirloom of the Lu family, passed down from mother to daughter. If the Lu family doesn't have a daughter, this heirloom will be passed down from the current matriarch. I thought the Lu family didn't have a daughter this generation, but I didn't expect you to appear.”
Lady Lu passed the crystal stone to Feng Lingxi, her tone flat.
"This belongs to you, whether you have the ability or not, whether you are willing or not to return to the Lu family and inherit the family business."
Feng Ling Xi looked at the crystal in front of her. It was so clear and sparkly, really very beautiful. There was a groove on its surface that looked like an entrance. Feng Ling Xi pointed to it with a puzzled expression, "Is this where the key goes"
Mrs. Lu glanced at it and nodded.
"When your grandmother passed it down to me, she said this heirloom allowed each generation's inheritor to see things beyond the realm of ordinary people by dropping a single drop of their blood into it. I tried, but I saw nothing."
Has the old lady seen this
Feng Lingxi had to admit, she was curious.
It turns out that this Lu family has such a saying, just like her wearing the purple star.
She is not the daughter of the Lu family, and she hasn't seen her. Your grandfather’s generation also had no daughters.
Mrs. Lu looked at Feng Lingxi, "Our family has only produced one daughter in three generations. However, your grandmother told me that her mother-in-law once told her that she had seen the mystery of this place and the future of the Lu family. But she didn't reveal a single word, only saying that this heirloom could only be passed down to daughters, not sons, and should not be forced. No matter whether the Lu family prospered or declined, it was forbidden to force it. Now that I think about it, perhaps she knew at the time that our family was destined to have no daughters, fearing we would find you and pressure you."
"Is that so magical"
Feng Lingxi looked at the crystal stone in her hand, it was like something out of a myth.
Mrs. Lu smiled, "This is what your grandmother told me too. I've never seen it myself, but the Lu family truly loves their daughters. Not only has the Lu family no daughters, even in my own family, besides me, there are no other girls."
Feng Ling Xi frowned, this was the first time she'd heard someone from ancient times care so much about a daughter.
Although it had something to do with the Lu family's lifeline, she was still quite surprised.
"I don't want this."
"It's alright, if you don't want to accept it, just leave it here with me. When you're interested, you can come and have a look." Lu's wife grasped Feng Lingxi's hand and said earnestly, "Xier, I know you blame your father. What he did back then was indeed wrong. These years, he has also been tortured, but we will use the rest of our lives to compensate both you and your mother. This has nothing to do with whether or not you need to return to your family, it's just that we hope our hearts can feel a little better."
Feng Lingxi hummed in response, and Lu Fuzi put the crystal stone away. Feng Lingxi thought of something and suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Please wait a moment, Madam."
Feng Lingxi took the Zi Xing from her neck and looked at its shape, her expression conflicted.
"Is this yours"
Feng Lingxi, noticing Lu Fu's curious gaze, explained, "This is a treasure of the Yao clan. It was given to me by my mother. I just saw that the hole on Lu family's heirloom seemed to match the shape of Zixing. I wanted to see if it really did."
Mrs. Lu hurriedly gave her the crystal stone, "Take a look."
Curious Lady Lu stepped forward, looking at the Zi Xing in Feng Ling Xi's hand. "This thing couldn't possibly belong to the Lu family. Your grandma never mentioned having something like this to me. This heirloom only has this one crystal stone."
Feng Lingxi placed the Zi Xing on top of the crystal, slowly sliding it in. The Zi Xing went down and surprisingly fit perfectly with the entrance. Feng Lingxi looked at Lu Fu with surprise, before they could recover, suddenly the crystal emitted a purple light. The Zi Xing shot out from within the crystal and landed with a thud on the ground. The crystal bloomed with purple light for a moment, then extinguished in an instant, turning back into a transparent crystal, lying still as if nothing had happened at all.
"What did you just see"
Mrs. Lu came to her senses and hurriedly asked Feng Lingxi, her voice filled with excitement. Feng Lingxi regained her composure and quickly jumped down, picking up Zi Xing and holding it in her hand. Everything had happened so fast, disappearing just as quickly. She hadn't seen clearly what was going on, she only knew that Zi Xing and the crystal stone's hole fit together perfectly. After putting Zi Xing in, a purple light appeared, and then Zi Xing was ejected.
"Madam, are you sure this is the heirloom of the Lu family"
"Of course, this was passed down to me by your grandmother. There's no way it could be fake."
Mrs. Lu looked at Feng Lingxi's puzzled gaze, "This thing was given to you by your mother, could it be related to the Lu family"
Feng Lingxi hurriedly shook her head, “Impossible, this is a sacred artifact of the Yao clan, passed down through generations of the Yao clan's patriarch. How could it be related to the Lu family”
Isn't it just a bit too coincidental that the Lu family heirloom and the Yao clan treasure would end up together like this.
This is simply unbelievable.
"Could it be that the ancestors of the Yao people and the Lu family are also related"
Lu's Madam looked at Feng Lingxi with the same astonished eyes. Both of them were suspicious and subconsciously looked at the crystal stone in front of them.Feng Lingxi didn't truly want to heal me, and I don't know if I should believe him."“This palace thinks Feng Ling Xi’s words are more credible. She entered the palace today and told this palace that L...
