Chapter 209: Infighting Again
Chapter 209: Infighting Again
Xu Jiayi’s face fell, and she didn’t explain . Instead, her voice became cold . “There were so many outstanding men that I could have married, but I didn’t . Instead, I came here to be your concubine . Do you think I’m that sort of woman?”
After thinking about it, Tu Xiang realized that she was right . She had suffered as a result of marrying him beneath her station .
“Clan Head, everything I said is true . ” The servant was so anxious that his voice began to tremble, and he kept saying that everything he had said was true .
Feng Tianlan raised an eyebrow at Xu Jiayi and curled her lips slightly . “Throw him out and sell him off somewhere . ”
Xu Jiayi had an affair?
Regardless of whether it was true or not, someone sneaking into her room in the middle of the night was suspicious . Besides, Xu Jiayi wasn’t as simple as she seemed . Who was she, really?
Feng Tianlan decided that she had to investigate Xu Jiayi properly . She might reap some surprising rewards .
The servant who had been spared quickly kowtowed . “Thank you, Clan Head, thank you so much . ”
Feng Tianlan looked at all the servants with their heads lowered . These people had very little choice but to follow the orders of whoever was in power . Many of them had been around since her mother was alive, and she could understand that they had been put in an awkward position after her mother’s death . But she wasn’t going to let off those who had deliberately betrayed her mother .
“I’m going to give you another chance . If you have something to say, spit it out fast . If you have nothing else to say, then we’ll continue with the beatings . ” Feng Tianlan turned to instruct Feng Qingling, “Uncle, I will not allow any overlaps in their stories . If someone says something that isn’t true or plausible, cut their tongue off immediately . ”

“Got it . ” Feng Qingling straightened his back . This tactic was a bit cruel, but since these people were disloyal, it wasn’t necessary to show them any mercy .
Everyone looked at the one servant in the corner waiting to be sold, and the other servant, who’d already died from his beating . With such a stark contrast in front of them, they knew that their new clan head, Feng Tianlan, was a woman who meant what she said .
Their desire to live made them forget everything else and they started coming forward one after another to spill the beans about things that Tu Xiang and the others had done .
“When I was younger, I saw Second Miss push you into the water and nearly drown you to death…”
“I can testify to how Third Miss has been whipping you for so many years . ”

“The technique that Second Miss taught you ten years ago was fake . ”
“Tu Xiang visited the brothel – does that count?”
“I can testify that Second Miss was the one who put something into Third Miss’ Restoration Pill . She said that Third Miss was too stupid and would get in the way, so she might as well destroy her . ”
“I can also swear that Third Miss often secretly goes to Second Miss’ room and refuses to let anyone follow her . I don’t know what she does inside . ”
The ones who’d only entered Feng Manor within the last ten years did know a thing or two, but nothing that was of any importance . Feng Tianlan really wanted to burst out laughing when she heard the part about the Restoration Pill . None of what they’d said was true, but if their statements could make Tu Xiuyu and Tu Xiupei turn against each other, then she’d take them as truth .

“I knew it! You’re the one who poisoned me and caused my son to die . You evil woman!” When she heard this, Tu Xiuyu couldn’t endure it any longer and roared as she pounced on Tu Xiupei .
Tu Xiupei turned to one side and resisted the urge to kill her there and then . She pretended to frown in concern . “Yu’er, stop trying to tear us apart . How could I have done something like that to you?”
The fetus had barely formed during one month of pregnancy, but Tu Xiuyu kept referring to this child as her ‘son . ’ What a joke!
“Return my son’s life to me!” Tu Xiuyu had gone crazy, and she wanted nothing else but to tear Tu Xiupei to pieces .
Once she had torn Tu Xiupei to shreds to avenge her son, she was going to kill Feng Tianlan . There was no way she was going to allow her son’s murderers to live!

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.

Murphy's Law
****Story has been dropped for being too dark**** "Anything that can go wrong, will." But what if you know what goes wrong in advance? On Earth, monsters come in human form. Some are ostracized or locked up, but others walk amongst us. They’re more common than one would think and they grow in number the higher in the hierarchy you go. With 1 in 100 people preying on the other 99, eventually, a world trying to summon a hero might end up with a monster that doesn't feel like playing along. _____________________________ The story is my take on some of my favorite genre's and tropes, some of which I have no I idea if they'll work well together. English is not my main language so if you notice any typos or grammar mistakes please tell me so I can correct them. Criticism and critique are more than welcome:) A chapter every Tuesday.*I do not own the cover image, it's taken from google.
