C608 Suspect

"Elder Zhong, if my Fenglin Family wanted to harm you, we wouldn't have gone to rescue you at that time." Hearing Huang Zhong's words, Chu Yue was immediately unhappy.

"Humph, who knows what kind of conspiracy you guys are plotting?" Huang Zhong did not back down at all and continued speaking harshly.

"You …" Chu Yue, who had a fiery temper, was about to go berserk.

However, Beauty Chu's timely voice stopped her, "Alright Yue'er, this matter was originally caused by our Fenglin Family, there's no need to make excuses."

Then, she looked towards Huang Tian and said apologetically, "Patriarch Huang, we will take care of this matter, you can rest assured!"

The people from Huangloong Family did not say anything, turned around and left.

His face was dark to the extreme.

There was nothing that could be done about that. Everyone could understand the feelings of everyone in the Huang Family. After all, their family was in a life-and-death situation.

The only thing that could save them was taken away.

"Patriarch, look at how they acted. We even saved them earlier, we don't have any gratitude at all." After everyone from Huang Long's family left, Chu Yue started to complain.

If Beauty Chu wasn't here, she would have charged up to theorize.

"We can't blame them. It's the same thing, we did make a huge mistake." Beauty Chu shook her head and replied.

"But, we also didn't expect Lan to suddenly turn into that state …" Chu Yue pouted, her face full of grievance.

Hearing Chu Yue's somewhat stubborn words, Beauty Chu's expression slightly turned cold as she shot a glance at Chu Yue.

"Alright, Sister Yue'er, stop talking. The Patriarch won't be happy in a while." Chu Xiao then stepped forward and pulled Chu Yue away, avoiding the latter being treated as a servant by the family.

Since there was someone who spoke up for Chu Yue, Beauty Chu didn't say anything else.

Instead, he shifted his gaze to Lin Feng. "Young Master Lin, I saw that you've been distracted ever since you came back. Did you encounter something unpleasant?"

As the head of the family, Beauty Chu was still alert. Although she didn't talk to Lin Feng much, she understood Lin Feng's state of mind very well.

It was unknown if it was because he had been paying attention to Lin Feng's relationship.

It was just as Beauty Chu had said, Lin Feng could be said to be confused.

He had already discovered that the consequences of losing the Wood Box were getting worse and worse.

If this continued, the two families that had originally allied with each other would soon have irreparable cracks.

"No, no. I was just thinking about where Lan would run off to." How could Lin Feng not answer when Beauty Chu called him by name?

Although his answer seemed more perfunctory, it was clear from Beauty Chu's expression that she did not believe his answer.

As meticulous as she was, she could guess that Lin Feng was definitely hiding something.

But in this situation, she couldn't force Lin Feng to say it. Moreover, it was only her guess, and there was no evidence to prove that Lin Feng really did have some secret that he didn't tell her.

After a while, Beauty Chu smiled and said, "Don't worry. Lan has yet to leave Phoenix Cry Valley. I believe it won't be long before we find her."

"That would be great!" Lin Feng also revealed a smile and replied.

"But you," Beauty Chu suddenly said to Lin Feng, "This was originally a matter of our Fenglin Family, and in the end, it caused you to worry so much.

"Patriarch Chu is being too serious, now that the Yellow Dragon and the Phoenix are in an alliance, we can naturally deal with it together. Besides, I didn't really help much." Lin Feng said, a little ashamed.

"In short, our Fenglin Family owes you too much. For subsequent actions, let us Fenglin Family do them ourselves." Beauty Chu continued.1

Her goal gradually became clear, which was to stop Lin Feng from participating in the quest of finding Qin Chulan.

This was not a good sign. Lin Feng thought that he had covered up pretty well. He couldn't figure out what was wrong that made Beauty Chu suspect him.

He stretched out his arms, "The vitality lost from the battle with Mask Man has yet to recover. If you continue to show off your strength, I'm afraid that I might be able to help you guys."

Pausing for a moment, Lin Feng followed Beauty Chu's words and said, "Since that's the case, I will take a break and wait for the good news in my room."

After Lin Feng left, Chu Yue walked over and asked, "Patriarch, why didn't you let him participate? He and Lan have a close relationship."

Shaking her head, Beauty Chu didn't explain anything. Instead, she beckoned another disciple of the Phoenix Landing Sect over, "You are now secretly watching Young Master Lin. If he makes any move, report back to me."

With regards to the Patriarch's order, that Fenglin Family disciple naturally complied with it and turned to leave.

However, Chu Yue and the others, who had some relationship with Lin Feng, couldn't help but be surprised after hearing Beauty Chu's order.

"Patriarch, this … What was going on? "Why are you monitoring Lin Feng?"

"I keep having the feeling that he knows something about Lan." Beauty Chu explained.

"It can't be, he's a guest elder of the Huang Long family. How could he not tell us about such an important matter?" Chu Yue's face was filled with disbelief.

It would be fine if it was just a small matter. However, it was a matter that concerned the lives of many people!

"Regarding this, I have yet to figure it out. In short, I'll just wait and see." Beauty Chu suddenly thought of something and asked Chu Yue, "Do you know where Young Master Lin went to find Lan?"

"I'm not sure. I didn't see him along the way." Chu Yue immediately responded.

"What about the others?"

Everyone present shook their heads.

"Patriarch, there aren't many people here now. If you want to know, why don't I gather all of my sisters who went out today to look for people?" Chu Yue suggested.

However, she was rejected by Beauty Chu. "There's no need for that. We can't avoid being misunderstood by others if we call for reinforcements at this late hour."

Of course, the ones he was referring to was the people from the Huang Long family.

Without any results, Beauty Chu didn't pursue the matter. Thinking about it, if Lin Feng wanted to get in contact with Qin Chulan on purpose, he wouldn't be discovered by others.

After instructing a few other scattered matters, everyone dispersed from the hall.

As for Lin Feng, although he went back to his room to rest, the situation in front of him was so complicated that he could not focus on recovering the spiritual energy in his body.

The thing that worried Lin Feng the most was the fact that Beauty Chu was suspicious of him.
