Chapter 9: Dinner with Feng Family (1/2)
When the sun finally setting down, Feng Xue came to invite Snowy for dinner. Together they walked to the dining hall not far away from their room. They can smell fragrant aroma flowing from the room from afar.
They were welcomed by the Feng couple who sat across the dining table when they stepped into the hall. Madam Feng made a hand gesture to urge both of them to pick their chair and sat down.
Snowy sensed Feng Xuan's gaze on her since the first time she entered the room. His gaze filled with wariness and caution.
She looked back at Feng Xuan and noticed that he was a lot stronger than her. He was the strongest man she met so far.
To get more information about him, Snowy used < identify > to get his information.

'His cultivation must be in Nascent Soul stage.'
She guessed after seeing question marks appear on the information. She can accurately identify someone up to two stages higher than her current cultivation, but she could not identify him. Furthermore, no immortal living in the Eastern continent. So, her guess must not be too far from the truth.
Feng Xuan's body shuddered when he look at Snowy eyes. He felt that her eyes could penetrate deeply into his soul left him no way to hide any secrets from it.
Sensing that the atmosphere became tense, Madam Feng asked with a warm smile to broke the silence.
”How is your day?”
”It's not bad. We get out to buy some clothes for Snowy and visit Phoenix Pavilion to buy her weapon,” Feng Xue answered while the servants serve her and Snowy a bowl, plate, and chopsticks.
”I heard that your little friend slapped Feng Luo in the morning?” Feng Xuan asked.
”Hmph, that moron just keep making trouble.” Feng Xue retorted mockingly.
”Don't be too harsh on your cousin. Naturally, a man attracted to beauty.” A wry smile appeared on his face. His daughter was too fierce.
Feng Luo was his late sister's son. He had been an orphan since he was a child. When her sister dead, Feng Xuan has sworn in front of her grave that he will take care of Feng Luo as if his own son.
He had tried to raise him as an honorable and kind person, alas, a man can only propose, but heaven dispose.
Feng Luo had been influenced by Yan Family's heir, Yan Tian. Since they become sworn brothers, Feng Luo became deeply indulged in debauchery and vanity.
He and Feng Xue could not see eye to eye. Every time they met, they will always fight and throw insults at each other, like cats and dogs.
Thus, Feng Xuan bought him a house far away from the mansion. Since then, Feng Luo slowly distanced himself from the main family.
Feng Xuan always felt guilty about this.
”He should know his place. Snowy is way out of his league.” Feng Xue squinted her eyes, and her tone turned colder.
”Now, now. Stop the fighting and start eating the food before it turns cold.”
Madam Fang chided them before the situation getting out of hand.
Snowy silently observed the situation then shifted her focus to the feast served on the table. She took the chopstick and began to savor fish soup in front of her.
