1789: Face-slapping, Act One (4)

Face-slapping, Act One (4)

Building a good reputation was very difficult, and it would only take a small matter to destroy it.2

Empress Dugu finally knew why Feng Wu had walked toward the tombs just then.

She can't go in, so she's going to ruin my son! thought the empress.

"Take her down for m-"

But —

Before she could finish —

Crack —

The door had been tightly shut a moment ago.

But now, the bronze door slowly opened.

Everyone watched in disbelief.

"The door is open?"

"The door to the tombs has opened?!"

"Is it because Feng Wu knocked on it?!"

"Because Feng Wu said that the second prince stopped her, so the door opened for her. Is that it?"

Mrs Zuo and Empress Dugu's eyes widened, and the muscles on their faces twitched. They couldn't stop trembling!

How was that even possible?!

How?!

Why did the door open?!

Feng Wu walked in and looked over her shoulder at Empress Dugu. The smirk on her face looked just like the one on the second prince's face earlier.

Empress Dugu was baffled!

The rest of the crowd was equally silent.

The look gave Mrs Zuo the creeps, and she almost forgot where she was. However, she soon returned to herself and shouted, "It wasn't the prince! The prince definitely didn't use Confine Space on Feng Wu!"

The crowd was speechless.

She shouldn't have brought that up. Now that she had, everyone was reminded of the accusation. Those that didn't believe it before also began to form their own ideas.

People could tell right from wrong.

Mrs Zuo didn't know what to say.

Empress Dugu was speechless.

After what Feng Wu said, even if the second prince was innocent, he didn't seem so anymore. Although Feng Wu didn't have any evidence, Empress Dugu couldn't blame her for anything either.

Feng Wu could only imagine the looks on everyone else's faces when she walked through that door.

The thought of the looks on Empress Dugu and Mrs Zuo's faces made her want to laugh.

She then gave the white fairy the thumbs up. "I'm so glad you're with me! Thanks!"

The white fairy said proudly, "I used to live here and only left because it was too boring. But even though I live somewhere else now, I still have the key to my door. This prince has practically dug his own grave."

Feng Wu chuckled. "He has no idea that he's become the topic of the day now. I bet he's very satisfied right now."

The white fairy felt speechless. "This is my home. Some outsider comes here to steal from my house and tries to lock me outside? Is he an idiot?"

Feng Wu laughed.

"He's going to pay for this!" The white fairy wasn't exactly a forgiving person.

Feng Wu chuckled. "Hey, you haven't told me where the other two ghost kings are yet."

"How dumb are you?" The white fairy gave her a "you idiot" look.

Feng Wu looked perplexed.

The white fairy looked her up and down and said in resignation, "Do you know what level you are at right now?"

Feng Wu said, "I'm a Level 7 Spiritual Elder."

The white fairy snorted. "So, you do remember."

Feng Wu rubbed her nose and said, "I've always had good self-awareness."

The white fairy almost laughed. "If you're so self-aware, why don't you realize that it's next to impossible for you to defeat them?!"
