Chapter 1713: The Son is a Foundling IX
Feng Ruqing’s expression darkened, gritting her teeth. “Helian Yue is trying to kill me!”
The taste of this soup was indescribably strange… The smell was fine, but the taste… It was very hard to describe.
In comparison, Tang Yin’s goldfish soup was better, even though she was about to vomit after drinking it.
Feng Ruqing stared at the soup on the table. A cold light flashed in her eyes. “Someone, bring this soup to Feng Lianqing. Tell him that Helian Yue brewed it for him.”
“Yes, Young Lady.”

At this time, in another part of the mainland, an ancient city surrounded by a mountain range.
This city was called Nan City.
All people in this city had their spirit beasts with them. However, unlike other spirit beasts, their eyes were somewhat dull and did not have the energy that a spirit beast should have.
The Nan family was the owner of Nan City.
After the old master of the Nan family was paralyzed in bed, the Nan family was inherited by his adopted son, Nan Fang.
At this moment, within the Nan family, the elders were expressing their anger, as if someone had killed their whole family.
“Master, that old man Tian Ya is really going too far. Don’t we need to send someone to teach him a lesson? Our Nan family is stronger than Tian Ya, so why should we be afraid of him?”
“That’s right. Not long ago, my grandson went out for a trip and fell in love with a girl. But it was that girl who first seduced my grandson and then backstabbed him. Tian Ya beat my grandson without reason and said that he would beat all the members of the Nan family when he saw them again.”
Nan Fang’s face was cold, and as he sat right in front of the chair, not speaking.
He remained silent for a long time, then he slowly spoke.
“You know the reason why our Nan family doesn’t leave Nan City. We are the most powerful here, but other forces are our match outside of Nan City!”
The crowd was silent, no longer speaking.
“Tian Ya has some connections with those forces. I don’t understand why he doesn’t go to them but stays in that shabby place called Wu Shang City. For now, we don’t have a way to deal with them; otherwise, it will be a lose-lose situation.”
The people continued to be silent for a long time.
They somewhat agreed with the head of the family.
The Nan family was now strong because of those spirit beasts. Since the old master was unconscious, the Nan family’s strength had declined a lot.
If it were not for Tian Ya’s connection to those forces, the Nan family would not have let him go!
“Master, are we going to let him go like this?”
One of the elders frowned and snapped, “People like Tian Ya don’t deserve to live in the world!”
Nan Fang sneered. “How is the dragon we captured? If we can completely tame it, sooner or later, this dragon will be able to surpa.s.s that side’s power. Then, our Nan family will rule the world, and no one can go against us.”
The elders trembled, but they remained silent.
“Master, we tried torturing that dragon, we also tried using spirit herbs to control it, but we have all failed. It seems that the dragon already has a master, so it doesn’t want to accept us.”
Nan Fang laughed. “So what if it already has a master? Even if it has made a contract with someone, I can still own it. All the spirit beasts in the world belong to our family, so what rights do other people have to rule the spirit beasts besides the Nan family?”
