Lord of the night.

Chapter 1441 Giving Up [Guaranteed 2-in-1]

Feng Du was severely criticized, but dared not utter a sound.

He could tell that Yan Nan was truly furious, and practically dying of anger.

Because he saw Yan Nan so angry that white foam appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Spit sprayed all over his face, like autumn rain...

Feng Du wiped his face awkwardly with his sleeve: "Don't get excited... don't get excited, Fifth Brother, it's alright now... besides, I was just being cautious... thinking of covering for you..."

"What the hell! Is that the reason you let Xuewu check?"

"You're going to fill in the gaps for me? Do I need you to fill in the gaps for me? If I really needed you to fill in the gaps, I would have been buried by Dongfang San San long ago!"

Yan Nan, drawing strength from who-knows-where, sat up abruptly and grabbed Feng Du by the collar, his teeth clenched, his eyes blazing with fury as if he wanted to devour the old man before him: "Didn't I tell you this is my granddaughter's husband? Didn't I tell you this is the Eternal Night Emperor of the Three Realms? Didn't I tell you he can refine the Five Elemental Gu? Didn't I tell you this is my spy?! Didn't I tell you this is the number one genius of the Only Righteous Sect?! Didn't I tell you...? Huh?!"

"Caution? What does the True Sect have to do with you? What are you being cautious about? I've been in charge for ten thousand years, why do you need to be cautious?"

Yan Nan was truly enraged: "Tell me, what did you bring back this time?!"

"The Divine Weasel Cult thing... it's blown everyone to smithereens, okay... so you've done a good job... Holy crap, this is actually a good job!! My undercover agent whom I painstakingly trained for so long... I..."

Yan Nan pounded the edge of the bed with her fist, saying with extreme frustration, "Third Brother, I've never felt so bad before... I couldn't even vent my anger properly. Ugh!"

"Third Brother messed things up... cough cough cough, Fifth Brother, calm down... You'll have to do all the work..."

"What a load of rubbish!"

Yan Nan said bitterly, "For so many years, I've been cleaning up other people's messes, just hoping you'd come back and clean up my mess too, but you brought back a pile of shit!"

"And then you expect me to do all the work! So you're not coming back to do anything this time either?"

Feng Du sighed.

Sitting in the chair, he said, "Actually, I quite like Night Demon."

"So you'd send someone to their doom if you liked them, huh?"

Yan Nan let out a sigh of relief.

He sighed again, feeling that he had nothing left to vent after venting for a while, and said, "Tell me from the beginning what happened."

So Feng Du began to explain from the beginning.

How to...

Yan Nan could only sigh.

When they got to Dragon God Island and talked about Xue Wu's reaction, Feng Du even made Night Demon unleash a burst of murderous aura...

Yan Nan suddenly felt a salty taste in her mouth, almost choked on her breath, and coughed with her eyes wide open...

Feng Du hurriedly stepped forward and patted his chest to calm him down: "Calm down, calm down, Fifth Brother..."

"I'm calm, you little sister..."

Yan Nan gasped for breath: "Damn it... Feng Laosan, you really aren't leaving me any way out..."

"He actually wants to unleash his full killing intent to make Xue Wu's Soul-Stabilizing Divine Light see..."

"What a talent!"

"What a genius!"

Yan Nan twisted her face and gave a thumbs up: "You are my role model for life! You have truly mastered the art of framing your own people and destroying your own family. Those thousands of years of seclusion were definitely worth it..."

Feng Du's face twisted in pain: "But if he hadn't unleashed his power like that, I wouldn't have known his murderous aura was so pure, belonging to the 'Only My True Sect'..."

"Damn it!"

Yan Nan roared, "I told you myself, can't you even believe me once?!"

"The news you brought back this time is that you not only intend to overthrow the Sovereign Sect, but you also want to overthrow my family! Night Demon is my granddaughter's husband, and now that Xue Wu has his eye on him, his life is as fragile as a candle in the wind... What if... what if... I won't be able to live like this anymore. Do you think my son and granddaughter won't eat me alive?!"

Yan Nan was on the verge of tears: "Third brother, you can't do this to people!"

"I completely trust you now! I will never harm you again."

Feng Du said, "Now I also feel that your judgment was correct! Besides, I will keep an eye on Night Demon from now on. With me here, do you really think Xue Wu will kill him?"

Yan Nan immediately became alert: "What do you mean?"

"I am a member of the Righteous Sect. Xue Wu was able to kill the Night Demon? Do you think my Heaven-Supporting Blade can't even protect a Night Demon?"

It is only natural to declare independence.

Yan Nan nodded slowly: "I understand... You're going to shirk responsibility again. You're going to go undercover with Night Demon, but actually you're going to play chess and have fun... You're abandoning the True Self Sect, aren't you?"

Feng Du patted his brother's shoulders and said earnestly, "Fifth Brother, my presence in the sect is a hindrance to you..."

"Bastard!"

Yan Nan roared like thunder: "I think you're just trying to slack off! You've been running around for nine thousand years, and now that you've finally come back, you've left a mess behind and you still want to keep running? Let me tell you! No way! You still want to slack off? You'll have to kill me!"

Suddenly a headache struck, and he clutched his head, groaning, "Duan Xiyang, Tianwang Xiao, this is... Bi Changhong, Sun Wutian... Over the years, these guys have always managed to turn things into something completely awful... Third Brother, could you stay and oversee things for a while? Your brother here... has it tough!"

A long sigh.

Yan Nan sighed, revealing the bitterness she had endured over the years: "...You should leave..."

Feng Du was too embarrassed to say anything for a moment.

He could sense that his fifth brother was truly exhausted, filled with inexplicable grief and indignation, utterly helpless, and had lost all will to live...

The two were silent for a while.

Yan Nan took a few breaths and noticed that Feng Du was still sitting next to her.

Knowing his third brother well, Yan Nan immediately became wary again.

Haven't left yet?
There's definitely something else going on!

Yan Nan then cautiously asked, "Is there... anything else you haven't said?"

Feng Du coughed: "Cough! Still..."

Yan Nan frowned: "I'm most afraid of your cough. Whenever you have something you can't say, you cough first... When you cough, my heart tightens..."

"No cough, no cough."

Feng Du smiled apologetically, "Fifth Brother, it's mainly about the Night Demon incident. I feel I've let you down a lot. I unintentionally disrupted your plans and caused a huge crisis for your grandson-in-law, so I was thinking about how to make amends..."

Yan Nan calmed down in one breath, then sighed and said, "How can this be made up for... He's just a junior... Do you really need to go and apologize on your own behalf?"

"Ha ha……"

Feng Du rolled his eyes with a wry smile: "To apologize to the Night Demon?"

Yan Nan, your little brain is really crazy.

What is Lao Tzu's identity? What is Night Demon's identity?
How could someone say something so outrageous and deserving of divine retribution...

He snorted and said, "Apologize... what's there to talk about? As the first deputy leader, what could I do even if I ordered him to die? Do I need to apologize? Yan Wu, your words are ill-considered."

Yan Nan rolled her eyes and said, "Go on, I'm waiting for you to say the word 'but'."

Feng Du was momentarily speechless, but after thinking for a moment, he said, "However... this matter was indeed an undeserved disaster for the Night Demon, so in order to make amends, I have also taken some small measures."

Yan Nan frowned: "Hmm? Be more specific."

"I have betrothed Feng Xue to the Night Demon."

Feng Du said awkwardly, "That's why I came to tell you, after all, I still need you..."

"..."

Yan Nan stared wide-eyed at Feng Du.

He didn't say a word for a long time, then rolled his eyes, lay on the bed, and fainted from anger.

The opposition leader panicked.

After a series of emergency rescues, it was discovered that Yan Nan was faking it; he didn't want to see Feng Du at all anymore, and didn't even want to curse him!
But Feng Du believes that the time has come.

I've been getting scolded for ages, and when I finally stand up for my own family's interests, you're stunned? That won't do!

And she was just pretending to faint!

They relentlessly tormented Yannan, resorting to ruthless methods in the process.

Yan Nan screamed and sat up, clutching her lower abdomen. She cursed, her voice piercing with anguish, "You bastard! Get out of here!"

Feng Du said, "I need to discuss this with you. If you give your approval, we can get it done between us."

"Discuss what?!"

Yan Nan's face was cold and stern: "There's no room for discussion! You leave! I'll never know you again!"

Feng Du said, "These are all good things, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Ha ha……"

Yan Nan sneered, stood up, and walked out with a cold face.

They were blocked by the blockade.

"Resolve this matter before you leave."

"Ha ha……"

Yan Nan just sneered.

Feng Du angrily said, "What exactly do you want? Why is it that only your Yan family is enjoying all the benefits?"

This sentence enraged Yan Nan to the point of exploding.

"Three bastards!"

Yan Nan said with a ferocious expression, "That's my grandson-in-law, didn't I tell you? Bi Yunyan also got a share because of that... you know that, right? And you still want to push him in? Of the four princesses of our righteous sect, you're pushing three of them in?"

Feng Du said, "We already have two, what difference does one more make? The strong should take more! With Feng Xue's looks, who in our righteous sects is worthy of her?!"

"Don't you think that makes sense? Anyway, if these two come out now, he's finished. So let him just hide one more."

Feng Du put his arm around Yan Nan's shoulder, ignoring Yan Nan's desperate struggles, and said, "Besides, you can play chess with me in the future... Do you know how few people can play chess with me these days?"

Yan Nan groaned, sounding like she was dying, and said, "You bastard, all you know is chess... You even went after my granddaughter's man... What did our Yan family ever do to you..."

"I just thought about it, and it felt good, so I did it. This matter... you see..."

Feng Du said, "Make a decision."

"I have no idea!"

Yan Nan said in unbearable pain, "I can't even tell Xiao Han. How can I tell him? That I found another wife for your man? You idiot, do you think this is something a grandfather like me should say?"

Feng Du frowned: "That makes sense. In that case, you don't have to say anything; you just need to agree. I'll handle the rest!"

"Hehe...you probably don't know my granddaughter's temper..."

Yan Nan sighed, "Third Brother, if you haven't succeeded in this matter yet, you should just give up now. After all, she's my own granddaughter, and the seniority matters. But Feng Xue is over ten thousand years older than you... You don't have any feelings for her, do you? You'll just slap her and send her packing... Please, have some mercy!"

Feng Du said, "But this matter... I've already told Sun Wutian, promised Feng Xue, and told Ye Mo..."

puff!
Yan Nan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of phlegm that smelled of blood, and weakly said with his eyes rolled back, "Are you my grandpa... You've done everything, are you here to give me a message?"

"Fifth brother, lie down first... don't tire yourself out..."

"I'm already dead! I'm only half a step away from dying..."

Yan Nan looked weak, then suddenly widened her eyes: "What did Night Demon say? He agreed?"

"That boy..."

Feng Du hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell the truth: "He didn't agree, but he did say that this matter must be asked of Yan Beihan..."

"Then go ask Yan Beihan, why are you looking for me?" Yan Nan lay back down on the bed, saying dejectedly.

"Anyway, the children are still young, and it's not appropriate to go public right now, so we can take our time. I just came to let you know... We can take it slow later."

Feng Du smiled obsequiously.

"..."

Yan Nan didn't answer, but simply said, "You can leave now. I'll rest for six months. We'll talk again in six months."

Feng Du was dumbfounded: "Then what do we do with all these things now?"

"It's up to you."

Yan Nan looked utterly despondent.

The seal is broken.

"You decide what to do..." This was always what he said to others. And he said it with extreme fluency.

But I never expected that someone would say such things about me today.

"I haven't been in the church for so many years, what do I know? How am I supposed to handle this?!"

Feng Du asked, "Get up quickly, or I'll resort to family discipline!"

"Family rules? Heh..."

Yan Nan rolled her eyes and muttered, "Go to hell with your second uncle... whatever."

He closed his eyes. And there he was, a corpse.

This time, I'm absolutely not getting up.

They directly shut down their six senses.

You think you're so great? Try forcibly breaking my six senses! With my cultivation level, if you forcibly break my six senses, I'll instantly become an idiot for you to see!

This isn't an act!

That's truly idiotic! —His consciousness was severely damaged!

The authorities were out of options.

After circling around twice, seeing that Yan Nan had really fallen asleep, Feng Du was completely at a loss.

My return has caused the top leader to go on strike...

What should we do about this?
He certainly didn't dare to forcibly untie Yan Nan.

After sighing for a while, he could only hang his head and walk out.

"To think that I, the greatest demon under heaven... the Heaven-Supporting Blade that holds up the entire continent... have been forced into this state... Yan Nan is truly a heartless wretch..."

Feng Du sighed.

Outside, Wu Xiao and the others were waiting.

"Third brother, how is he? What about fifth brother?"

"Your fifth brother needs to rest, let's get back to work."

Feng Du sighed: "To the interrogation room..."

Feng Du glanced back reluctantly, realizing that Yan Nan was truly furious this time. He shook his head and had no choice but to leave with his brothers.

Yu Hanyan sensed something was wrong: "Fifth Brother really isn't going to come and keep an eye on things himself? That's not like him at all..."

Feng Duxin thought to himself, "Your fifth brother is now so angry that he's practically half dead. The Righteous Sect is probably leaderless for the time being."

"Isn't it better for me to hold out for a while than for your fifth brother?"

Feng Du said, "Besides, your fifth brother has worked hard for so many years. Now that I'm back, I'll do some work for him and let him catch his breath."

The brothers immediately exclaimed in unison, "Third Brother is so generous!"

My heart is filled with tears, I don't want to be angry.

But on the surface, he seemed nonchalant: "These are all minor matters... We're brothers, after all. Let's go, let's get down to business."

After Feng Du and the others left.

Yan Nan opened her eyes, her face ashen with rage.

With a flicker, he transformed into a wisp of green smoke and headed straight for the Yan Family Manor!

I've really had enough!
Do whatever you want!

I'm going back to my hometown to go into seclusion. I don't care about any divine war. I'm going to go into seclusion for thousands of years, just like Feng Du!

Damn it, who are they bullying?!

Halfway through, he remembered something and detoured to the main courtroom to vent his anger, only to find that the little bastard was not there.

Let's just leave it for now.

Went straight home.

It's not too late to beat him up later!

……

Let's rewind to three hours earlier...

Fang Che arrived at the Yan Family Manor without incident.

There are simply too many things I need to discuss with Yan Suiyun in person.

Yan Suiyun gave us a very warm welcome.

"Lord Night Demon's presence is an honor to our humble abode."

"I am deeply honored by your unauthorized intrusion."

After entering the door.

"Your son-in-law greets you, Father-in-law. I hope you are well."

“Please rise, son-in-law. There’s no need for such a grand gesture when things can’t be exposed.”

"Thank you, Father-in-law."

"Hmm... come with me."

So we went to the tea room.

Yan Suiyun was approachable and refined, calm and composed, and personally brewed the tea.

Fang Che tried to volunteer to do the work, but was refused.

“I just asked your grandfather. Uncle Feng is back, but I guess they’ll be drinking and having meetings, so he won’t be back for the next couple of days.”

As Yan Suiyun brewed tea, he smiled warmly and said, "It's perfect that we, father and son, have some time to chat. Hmm, hurry up and change your face back; I find it very uncomfortable to look at your ugly face."

"Yes."

Fang Che sat down respectfully, then transformed back into his original appearance: "I am deeply apprehensive about troubling you, Father-in-law."

"Hehe... I still find it more pleasing to the eye this way."

Yan Suiyun smiled kindly: "You are our family's precious guest, although your mother-in-law doesn't know yet, hehe... but we must treat you well, what if Xiaohan comes back and causes me trouble?"

Since his father-in-law was joking, Fang Che naturally had to laugh it off: "Hehe, Xiao Han is well-educated, reasonable, and generous. He is the most filial to his father-in-law. How could he do something like causing you trouble? I don't believe it."

Yan Suiyun snorted, her eyes crinkling with a smile, and said, "You deliberately chose something nice to say to fool me, didn't you?"

"Don't dare."

"How did your parents feel about Xiaohan coming home with you this time?"

The first topic is clearly that the question of her daughter's future is of paramount importance to Yan Suiyun.

"My parents were extremely satisfied, even in disbelief, saying that a beautiful flower had been stuck in cow dung, and they asked Xiaohan several times how she could have fallen for someone with my monkey temper... cough."

Fang Che said, "My parents are especially pleased with Xiao Han; they even gave away the family heirloom..."

Yan Suiyun was immediately delighted, but feigned modesty by glancing sideways: "A family heirloom? That must be very valuable, right?"

"It might not be valuable, but my mother said it was part of my maternal grandmother's dowry when she got married. It was a pair of jade bracelets. Later, my grandmother gave one to my aunt and the other to my mother, and now my mother is wearing it on Xiaohan's wrist..."

Fang Che answered cautiously.

Yan Suiyun's eyes narrowed, and his smile became much more genuine: "Very good, it seems that Xiao Han didn't bring shame to our Yan family when she went... Hmm, this kind of ancestral heirloom, carrying the most sincere blessings of our ancestors, is more precious than any priceless treasure! I'll talk to the girl about it later and tell her to keep it safe! This is a true family heirloom!"

Fang Che smiled and said, "Xiao Han cherishes it very much. She only wears it at home, and carefully puts it away immediately after coming out. I think it's a separate spatial ring with a mark on it."

"Ah That's good."

Yan Suiyun was very satisfied. So she placed a cup of the brewed tea in front of Fang Che and said with a smile, "Try my cooking."

"My father-in-law's tea-making skills are unparalleled! What a fragrant tea."

Fang Che praised him aloud, but in his heart he knew: it seems his answer satisfied this old man, otherwise... even if the tea was brewed, Yan Suiyun would probably drink it himself...

But once this cup of tea is over, the first hurdle is cleared.

Yan Suiyun stretched out her fingers, muttered "one, two, three, four" to herself, and laughed, "If I'm not mistaken, in terms of your cultivation, the buzzing and resonance of your whole body and jade bones should be between five and seven times, right?"

Fang Che said apologetically, "Father-in-law, your calculations have a slight error... I am currently experiencing a buzzing and resonance throughout my body, and since the last report, it has been a total of... fifteen times."

"Cough cough..."

Yan Suiyun couldn't help but cough twice. His hand holding the teapot trembled slightly, and he frowned: "So many times? Last time you were a Saint Emperor of the Fourth Rank, now you're a Saint Venerable of the Second Rank... Saint Venerable of the Second Rank?"

"Another breakthrough?"

Yan Suiyun's eyes widened.

Only then did he realize that his son-in-law's aura was different.

"Ah."

"But even a Saint Venerable of the second rank wouldn't do it this many times, would they?"

Yan Suiyun frowned.

"I don't know what happened. When I was at the seventh rank of Saint Emperor, it happened twice, and when I was at the eighth rank of Saint Emperor, it happened three times."

Fang Che said, "I don't understand the reason myself, so this time, I really wanted to come back and ask you, Father-in-law, for a long time..."

"Let me see your hand..."

As Yan Suiyun took his pulse, he frowned and asked, "Have you checked yourself what stage the Undying Bone Tempering has reached?"

"It should have reached the skull. Sometimes when I look inside my body, I feel like half of my skull is crystal clear."

Fang Chedao.

"Ah."

Yan Suiyun pressed his wrist pulse and nodded in agreement, then lowered her head to feel it carefully, her expression constantly shifting where Fang Che couldn't see.

Shock, amazement, surprise, excitement!
A true genius! An unparalleled genius! An unprecedented genius!
But... there's more... complexity.

Because he discovered that within this guy's bones, there seemed to be... components of innate Dao bones that he was familiar with.

This……

Yan Suiyun felt a little uneasy: This kid... is quite diligent!

Then I started to feel... a little annoyed.

He removed his finger, a breath caught in his throat, and remained silent for a long time.
