Joining the Joyful Union Sect, My Life in the Grip of My Senior Sister

Chapter 248: Empress Feng Yao

Although these historical records didn’t tell Lin Fengmian what the exam questions were, they did reveal the final answer.

The ultimate winner of the Nine Dragon Throne Competition was Empress Feng Yao!

Empress Feng Yao?

He hadn’t heard of this name before; could she be an illegitimate daughter?

This clearly meant that this was the title Empress Feng Yao took after ascending the throne.

The Twelfth Princess was already dead, leaving only Jun Yunshang and her highly competitive Ninth Sister as the remaining princesses.

Could Jun Yunshang be Empress Feng Yao?

Lin Fengmian racked his brain to imagine Jun Yunshang as an empress, but it was hard to picture her.

Jun Yunshang’s vague and not-so-smart appearance made it difficult for him to associate her with an empress ruling the world.

He was really stupid to think that she could be an empress.

If that little girl could be an empress, then he would be the man working hard behind her.

To be on the safe side, Lin Fengmian was still flipping through the records of the Junyan Empire, trying to find any information about Jun Yunshang.

But he couldn’t find any records about Jun Yunshang, as if she didn’t exist in history.

This made Lin Fengmian quite frustrated, but fortunately, he also couldn’t find any information about Jun Jueli, which made him feel a bit better.

Jun Yunshang might be a bit slow, but he still hoped that she was alive.

Even if she lived a mediocre life as a vase, it would still be pleasing to the eye, right?

He couldn’t help but sigh, history was indeed written by the victors.

Those defeated princes and princesses didn’t even deserve to have their names recorded.

At that moment, a cautious voice was heard.

“Junior Brother Lin?”

Lin Fengmian closed the book with a bitter smile, stood up, and looked at Chen Qingyan.

“Chen Shijie, you still recognized me.”

Hearing Lin Fengmian’s hoarse voice, Chen Qingyan looked at him in disbelief.

If it wasn’t for his figure and back, she wouldn’t have recognized him.

Ever since Lin Fengmian was taken away, Zhao Ningzhi hadn’t told her anything about him.

She only knew from Liu Mei that he was fine, but she didn’t know where he went.

Unexpectedly, when they met again, he had turned into this.

Although his strength seemed to have improved, he had become unrecognizable.

“Why didn’t you contact us? Junior Sister Mo and the others were worried about you. Why did you pretend not to know me just now?”

Lin Fengmian touched his disfigured face and smiled helplessly, “I was afraid of scaring you.”

Chen Qingyan shook her head, “It’s just a shell, I never cared about it.”

Lin Fengmian felt a bit relieved upon hearing this and smiled, “That was my overthinking.”

“Why are you here, Junior Brother?” Chen Qingyan asked curiously.

“I was ordered to guard the library here, what about you, Senior Sister?” Lin Fengmian asked back.

Chen Qingyan’s expression was unnatural as she said insincerely, “I came to check some information.”

Lin Fengmian noticed that she seemed to be spacing out instead of reading, so he slightly frowned.

“Senior Sister, what’s really going on? Can you tell me?”

Chen Qingyan smiled helplessly, “Junior Borther is still so sharp. Actually, I came here to avoid someone, I didn’t expect to meet you.”

“Avoid someone? Who?” Lin Fengmian frowned.

He knew that Chen Qingyan’s life wasn’t easy, as her master was likely dead, leaving her without support in the Joyful Union Sect.

But considering Shangguan Yuqiong’s concern for her, she shouldn’t be in such a predicament in Joyful Union Sect.

Chen Qingyan sighed, “Recently, a senior from Heavenly Deception Sect came to Joyful Union Sect to discuss cooperation.”

“The senior’s son seemed to have some private issues, so he came to the Joyful Union Sect for treatment.”

“The sect master ordered the disciples to treat him well, so the sisters had to follow the sect master’s instructions.”

“He seems to like me and wants me to serve him.”

Hearing this, Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but ask nervously, “Has that bastard been bullying you?”

Was this the reason why Shangguan Yu asked him to stay indoors recently?

Chen Qingyan shook her head, “Fortunately, Elder Zhao was there to help me out, and Sister Wang took the initiative to take my place.”

“But she suffered because of it, being tortured by that pervert Cao Cheng’an until she was bedridden on the verge of death.”

She said this with a painful expression, lowering her eyes, her mood low.

“Elder Zhao recently asked me to stay away, so I came here.”

Hearing about the unfortunate Wang Yanran again, Lin Fengmian couldn’t help but feel sympathy.

He had heard from Xia Yunxi before that because of the previous incident, Wang Yanran seemed to have developed a dislike for men.

Unexpectedly, this time, she was still willing to stand up for Chen Qingyan, which made him respect her.

Lin Fengmian frowned as he saw the essence of the matter and felt that this might be unfavorable for him.

If the Joyful Union Sect really planned to bet on him becoming Jun Wuxie, what was the Heavenly Deception Sect doing?

Did they have other ideas?

Thinking of this, he walked out and Chen Qingyan asked, “Junior Borther Lin, where are you going?”

Lin Fengmian sighed, “I’m going to see Sister Wang.”

After all, they had fought side by side in Ning City, and he really wanted to see how she was doing now.

Chen Qingyan hesitated for a moment, “I’ll go too.”

“Senior Sister, didn’t Elder Zhao ask you to stay away?” Lin Fengmian frowned.

“Today, Elder Zhou invited them for a visit, they shouldn’t be back so early,” Chen Qingyan said.

Lin Fengmian nodded, and the two of them flew towards Crimson Phoenix Peak together.

On the way, Lin Fengmian and Chen Qingyan attracted a lot of attention, the first time Lin Fengmian appeared in public after being disfigured.

Seeing those women’s disdainful looks, it was impossible not to care.

But if he cared, he didn’t care too much.

Chen Qingyan noticed these looks and was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so she deliberately changed the subject.

“Just now, it seemed like Junior Brother was reading the historical records of the Junyan Empire?”

“I’m just looking around, but it seems like the records about the dynastic changes are incomplete,” Lin Fengmian said casually.

“It’s normal for them to be incomplete, many things need to be avoided and not written down,” Chen Qingyan explained.

Lin Fengmian’s eyes lit up, “Senior Sister seems to be very familiar with them?”

“I’m fine, what doubts do you have, Junior Brother?” Chen Qingyan asked.

“What kind of person is our Empress Feng Yao?” Lin Fengmian asked curiously.

Upon hearing him mention Empress Feng Yao’s name, Chen Qingyan’s eyes showed admiration and worship, as if she highly respected her.

“Empress Feng Yao is one of the Eight Saints of the North, powerful and mysterious, it’s said that she has killed a saint!”

Lin Fengmian was shocked when he heard this; Empress Feng Yao was a saint!

This meant that the throne and saintly positions of the Junyan Empire were normally transferred.

Could it be that he and Luo Xue’s assassination attempt had failed?
