Chapter 1770 - 1769: Quarreling

"Shui Liuzi isn’t part of the Phoenix Clan, at most he is a guest, how could he be in the Divine Land Hall?"

After Chu Chengfeng finished speaking, he looked hesitantly at Sima Xiaowen.

Sima Xiaowen was furious, her brows furrowed, her eyes wide open, and she sarcastically questioned, "Who are you looking at? What do you mean? What evidence do you have to prove that I brought him in? Remember, Liu Ling was there too, both of us were involved and lost our memories. Why are you only suspecting me?"

"I never said I suspected you." Chu Chengfeng paused for a moment, then frowned and explained.

Why is Sima Xiaowen acting like a powder keg?

No spark, yet she can explode herself?

"Why did you look at me like that, Chu Chengfeng? Don’t think just because you’re the Clan Leader you can do whatever you want. I’m telling you, Sima Xiaowen isn’t buying it."

"Your temper hasn’t changed in years, can you just listen to someone finish talking?"

"Why should I listen to you? There’s no wisdom coming out of your mouth."

"Sima Xiaowen, how could you insult me?" Chu Chengfeng’s eyebrows furrowed deeper.

"I’m insulting you, a trashy man, arrogant and self-conceited. Do you think you’re that impressive?" Sima Xiaowen’s voice carried sarcasm.

"I’m nothing impressive. I’m bad in every way. Even if I am the Clan Leader, you won’t look up to me. But you were still going to marry someone like me, weren’t you?" Chu Chengfeng couldn’t quite control his emotions and words.

Right after saying it, he regretted it.

"That must have been a moment of blindness. Fortunately, I’ve called it off, or falling into your pit would ruin my life." Sima Xiaowen’s face changed, and her voice grew sharp.

"How could marrying me ruin your life? Sima Xiaowen, make yourself clear." Chu Chengfeng blurted out.

"What rank do you have? I’ve already told you clearly, and you can’t understand, right? Didn’t you forget? Someone like you, how can you be a Clan Leader? Do you have the capability to bear the responsibility of the Phoenix Clan?" Sima Xiaowen gritted her teeth.

"Sima Xiaowen, you can question me as a person, but you are not allowed to question the Phoenix Clan’s Clan Leader."

Chu Chengfeng seemed furious, his voice unconsciously grew stern.

And at that moment, his aura expanded, his cultivation unknowingly revealed itself, and the atmosphere in the room grew incredibly tense.

But Sima Xiaowen did not fear at all, she coldly laughed, "Alright, then let’s discuss this new Clan Leader of yours. Before things were clarified, why did you want to kill me? Even if I’ve lost my memory, but the engagement between Sima Xiaowen and you exists. Out of emotion and reason, you should deal with it properly, but what did you do?"

Sima Xiaowen’s voice grew louder, "How did you as the new Clan Leader handle it? Do you remember? You left without saying goodbye, came back a week later with a stranger, and declared publicly that she was your fiancée. I was right in front of you, where did you place Sima Xiaowen?"

"Besides, since there were three people in the Divine Land Hall back then, Liu Ling has the same suspicion as me."

"Who’s the one who let the wolf in, we can’t say for sure now, and didn’t your fiancée lose her memory too?"

"Then can I infer that, leaving aside that Shui Liuzi, Liu Ling’s suspicion isn’t small. After all, she was to be the future Clan Leader’s Wife. Her power was far greater than mine, what authority do I have to lead a stranger to the Divine Land Hall?"

Chu Chengfeng was stunned, then gritted his teeth and said, "I haven’t said a single word until now, I just glanced at you, and you made such elaborate assumptions, you’re deliberately misinterpreting my meaning."

"Alright, both of you are losing it, how old are you both? Living like children, what are you arguing about in the Gu Family study? Are you both right? Aren’t you both capable? Is your voice quite strong? Do you care about shame or not?"

Elder Sima angrily shouted.

Initially, Elder Sima was shocked by the way the two argued, but now words couldn’t describe how he felt.

To be honest, his daughter hasn’t changed much, frankly speaking, she’s just like this, but the Clan Leader’s not right. If it weren’t for the familiar bloodline and familiar aura, and the surging golden flame, he’d definitely be sure that this isn’t their Phoenix Clan’s new Clan Leader, nor the Chosen Son with both Phoenix and Phoenix Clan bloodlines.

Why is someone like him acting like a childish child?

Back then, Mo Li, while young, was calm, and under the Old Clan Leader’s guidance, did many things to make the Phoenix Clan flourish.

He never saw him act childishly.

This time Elder Sima was a bit confused too, suddenly thinking maybe this was his demeanor before his awakening, so he became displeased, looked at his daughter, and said grudgingly, "Sima Xiaowen, you’ve got some nerve, picking and choosing to find such a thing, was he always like this?"

The atmosphere in the room instantly changed, it’s strange, yet serious, serious, but with a hint of irony.

Let alone Elder Sima, even Chu Chengfeng didn’t understand why he and Sima Xiaowen argued childishly, and argued so fiercely, his face turned red.

A handsome face, seemed like Elder Sima slapped it several times, even his earlobes were red, the implication of Elder Sima’s words was hardly different from saying that his daughter had poor judgment, finding a person like this was truly disgraceful.

Fortunately, Sima Xiaowen didn’t intend to embarrass Chu Chengfeng, the former Chu Chengfeng, she exhaled deeply, though her face was off, yet she told the truth, "Dad, the Chu Chengfeng I knew wasn’t like this, wasn’t childish, was very good to me, otherwise I wouldn’t have agreed to marry him."

When saying this, Sima Xiaowen added a touch of sorrow.

After the bloodline awakening, the memory is truly forgotten completely, even the conduct, temperament, speaking manner, personality, and thinking way have changed.

He’s no longer the sunny handsome guy who had only her in his eyes.

That Chu Chengfeng, who loved her dearly, wanted to spend a lifetime to grow old with her, ultimately died.

Maybe it’s because she saw her family, normally indifferent seeming like a facade, at this moment, Sima Xiaowen’s most vulnerable corner was touched.

She thought she was invincible, yet so fragile, easily shattered.

Tears burst out, in an instant, her face was streaked with tears.

Such a Sima Xiaowen, Chu Chengfeng and Elder Sima had never seen before, it was not in their memories.
