The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 44 Father-Daughter Rivalry
"Feng Ling, would you be willing to absorb this legendary great ghost?"

Feng Tianjue looked at Feng Ling, who was sitting cross-legged, with a serious expression, and probed in a slightly seductive tone.

After much deliberation, Feng Tianjue was still reluctant to let his precious daughter, Feng Yuqing, take this risk!
Besides Feng Yuqing, only Feng Ling can absorb it. Who else should we ask if not him?

"Sect Master, this disciple is willing to give it a try!"

Feng Ling stood up and bowed politely, his tone indifferent, showing no concern for Feng Tianjue's petty thoughts.

Having selfish motives... that's only human nature!

Moreover, don't forget that he also has Tai Chi by his side. Those who practice Tai Chi pay the most attention to health preservation and the balance of Yin and Yang!

Judging from Feng Ling's current body, which is nourished by the profound energy of Tai Chi, he might not necessarily be unable to devour this level twelve demon!
It's legendary!

Feng Ling felt a slight restlessness in his heart. He had "eaten" through the first to tenth floors, and only the legendary ghost on the eleventh floor was missing! Only by eating this legendary ghost could he truly conquer the entire Ghost Locking Tower!

"Feng Ling, are you crazy?" Feng Yuqing was furious and glared at Feng Ling, but Feng Ling remained unmoved and continued to walk forward slowly.

Feng Yuqing was about to step forward to stop him, but was bound by an invisible pressure!
The pressure comes from... Feng Tianjue!

"No, don't go..."

As Feng Ling slowly stepped forward, Feng Yuqing, unable to even utter a sound, shed a tear and could only let out a futile cry in her heart.

Although she is usually willful and capricious, that doesn't mean she's unreasonable!
"Alas... in the end, I am just an old man with shallow fate and little fortune!"

Feng Yuqing cannot speak, Liu Yidao cannot speak, and the clone Ling Weiyun is Feng Ling himself. He is happy to see it happen, so why would he stop it?
As for those level-ten great ghosts, they all died in hatred when they saw the ferocious legendary great ghosts, so how could they dare to breathe?
For a moment, the entire ten-story space was unusually quiet, with only the crisp sound of Feng Ling's footsteps as he stepped forward, and the atmosphere gradually became dull and oppressive!
"Sect Master, I'm ready..."

Feng Ling took a deep breath, exhaled a breath of stale air, and then gestured to the Jade Purity Sect Master.

"Then let's begin. If you can't hold on halfway through, tell me immediately!"

As soon as Feng Tianjue finished speaking, he suddenly slammed the legendary Great Ghost in his hand into Feng Ling's Ghost Spirit Life Token. This was hardly a sign that he was afraid Feng Ling wouldn't be able to hold on!

"Hmm...!?" The token that had absorbed the legendary ghost flew back into his body on its own. Immediately afterwards, golden light swept out from Feng Ling's body, and a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the others.

"hiss……"

Feng Ling clenched his teeth, looking like he was in great pain. Feng Tianjue thought that Feng Ling was only putting on a brave face because he didn't want to disappoint him, so a hint of relief and guilt flashed deep in his old eyes.

Glancing at this scene out of the corner of his eye, Feng Ling remained expressionless, but secretly compared it in his mind and quickly came to a conclusion, saying sadly: This level of pain is not as bad as losing a finger!
In his past life, Feng Ling was captured by a Miao witch and lost a finger while on an assassination mission. However, he endured it with his willpower and did not make a sound. In the end, the witch was impressed by him and let him go.

Fortunately, Feng Ling was a six-fingered superhuman in his previous life, and it was his sixth finger that was severed by the witch!
……

Time passed slowly, and the entire space became unusually quiet.

Feng Yuqing stared intently at the stubborn figure in front of Feng Tianjue, her heart pounding in her chest, filled with worry and a touch of resentment.

"Ah!" As time passed, Feng Ling, covered in sweat, gritted his teeth and roared. The golden light on his body disappeared completely, and he fell to the ground.

Finally, he couldn't bear it any longer and ended this farce, which he couldn't feel any real pain in the first place.

"So...it's a success?"

Feng Tianjue was shocked and released a gentle force to help Feng Ling up.

He really didn't expect that Feng Ling could actually subdue a level 12 great ghost, let alone that he had such strong perseverance!
Liu Yidao was so shocked that he stared in disbelief in his old eyes.

Then, Liu Yidao and Ling Weiyun exchanged a glance and shook their heads with bitter smiles.

"Feng Ling, are you alright?"

With the pressure reduced, Feng Yuqing instantly broke free of her restraints and looked at the weakened Feng Ling with concern.

"I'm fine, don't worry!"

Feng Ling shook his head and forced a smile.

In fact, as he put it, he didn't really think that the legendary demon was so easy to "eat." As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt tired.

"Father, how could you do this? Don't you know Feng Ling's cultivation level is insufficient? Making him absorb knowledge beyond his level, aren't you trying to kill him?"

Feng Yuqing turned her head and looked at the Yuqing Sect Master with an angry expression, her tone full of resentment and reproach.

"Slap!" Suddenly, a loud slap landed on Feng Yuqing's face. Feng Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and tears welled up in her bright eyes.

"Sect Master, what..." Liu Yidao and his clone were both stunned. After speaking, they hesitated, mainly because they didn't know what to say in the face of this sudden scene.

After all, it's a conflict between a father and daughter. You outsiders just happened to stumble upon it. At most, you can offer some advice. Anything more would be presumptuous!
"Yuqing, come here!" Feng Ling's eyes sharpened, and a surge of anger rose in his heart for no reason. He pulled the bewildered Feng Yuqing behind him.

Immediately, Feng Ling thought about it carefully, but forcibly suppressed it, and gave a self-deprecating smile: "Why is my own father getting so worked up when he's disciplining his daughter?"

Let's wait and see. If Feng Tianjue dares to hit her again, I'll take the hit for her!

"Father, you actually... hit me!"

Feng Yuqing leaned against Feng Ling's shoulder, trembling. She covered her pretty face, which bore a red handprint, and looked at Feng Tianjue, who was trembling as he withdrew his old hand, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She never expected that her father, who had always loved her the most since she was a child, would actually hit her.

This seemed to be the first time in seventeen years that she had been slapped by Feng Tianjue. Thinking of this, a strong sense of bitterness and grievance welled up from the bottom of her heart!

"In the end, isn't it all your fault? Otherwise, why would Feng Ling have been in such danger?"

"Very well! I suppose I've spoiled you too much these past years, which has led to your willful and capricious personality. From now on, you are not allowed to step out of Yuqing Pavilion without my permission!"

Feng Tianjue's right hand trembled. After uttering a string of angry and harsh words, a trace of pain flashed in his old eyes, and his heart felt as if it were being cut by a knife.

As the saying goes, "When children are beaten, parents feel the pain in their hearts!"

Feng Tian had no idea why he was so angry this time, but thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had never actually hit Feng Yuqing before!

Feng Tianjue had no idea that Feng Yuqing had been frightened to tears by the chaotic scene of demons dancing in the Ghost Locking Tower; otherwise, he would never have hit her.

"Alas! Sect Master, please calm your anger!"

Liu Yidao shook his head and sighed, his old face full of helplessness. He knew that what Feng Tianjue said was an indisputable fact, and he didn't want to say too much.

Perhaps today's incident is just a trigger; the root cause lies with the father and daughter themselves!

"Come on! Come back with me..."

After nodding and greeting the two elders, Feng Tianjue, his voice stern and hoarse, grabbed Feng Yuqing's wrist and prepared to drag her away.

The saying goes, "Don't wash your dirty linen in public." This is truly embarrassing in front of outsiders!

"No...! I don't want to go back with you, I don't want you to interfere, go away, go away...!"

Struggling to free her aching wrist, Feng Yuqing choked back tears, turned around, and collapsed into Feng Ling's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. She truly hated Feng Tianjue to death.

"What did you say? Say it again..."

"Waaaaah... Go away! Go away now! I never want to see you again!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Tianjue was furious and stood there in a daze for a long time.

Since Feng Yuqing's mother passed away, Feng Tianjue has felt guilty and has been protecting Feng Yuqing like a precious jewel. Once her stubborn nature comes out, no one can do anything about her!
"Sect Master, why don't you go back first? This disciple will bring Yuqing...Junior Sister back to you tomorrow!"

Finally, Feng Ling spoke up, looking embarrassed, giving Feng Tianjue and himself a way out.

After all, being held by Feng Yuqing in front of so many people and ghosts, even with his good and upright mindset, made him feel awkward all over!
"As soon as possible!" Feng Tianjue gave Feng Ling a deep look, seemingly agreeing.

After that, the group did not linger. The five figures transformed into streaks of light and quickly escaped from the Ghost-Locking Tower.

"Sigh! Jue'er, your daughter's temperament is exactly like yours!"

Outside the Ghost-Locking Tower, the Jade Purity Sect Master looked at Feng Yuqing, whose face was streaked with tears. He looked up at the stars with sadness, and a trace of confusion appeared on his old face.

"If you've figured it out, come back soon!"

Immediately, glancing at the woman still convulsing on Feng Ling's shoulder, Feng Tianjue sighed helplessly once more, a trace of vicissitudes passing across his old face.

They say a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup, but this girl hasn't even gotten married yet, and she's already found someone she loves and has forgotten about her father!

Feng Tianjue could see that although this incident did not break the relationship between him and his daughter, it did create a rift between them.

Life is not about persevering because of hope; it's about seeing hope because we persevere.

The world is full of chaos and troubles; may the sages offer you a pure land for your souls.
