The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 560 The Advantage of Bloodline
"That's not necessary."

Feng Hang looked grateful, but refused without hesitation: "Lin Chen, I appreciate your kindness, but please don't get involved in this matter."

Lin Chen blinked: "What's wrong? I'm not surnamed Feng, so it's not appropriate for me to interfere in the Feng family's affairs?"

"Of course not, don't overthink it."

Feng Hang smiled slightly awkwardly, "You still need to focus on dealing with Guo Tang right now. Don't let this little matter distract you."

"Feng Hang is right. You should focus on dealing with Guo Tang for now."

Feng Yazhen smiled and put an end to the topic, then changed the subject.

Feng Tangtang suddenly spoke up: "Cousin, Liu He, the guy from the Liu family who gave me flowers at school last time, suddenly came to apologize to me a few days ago..."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "What's there to apologize for?"

Feng Tangtang said with bright eyes, "It's about the fight in the back alley. Actually, it's been a long time since that happened, but I guess it's because the Liu family got into trouble, and he's not sure what to do. He's afraid his cousin will punish him again, so he came to apologize again."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I had almost forgotten about it."

Feng Tangtang laughed and said, "You can forget, but he dares not forget. He heard that his grandfather died at your hands, so he has no choice but to be afraid."

After dinner, my uncle's family left.

The elderly couple went to sleep first, while Lin Chen and Feng Yazhen were still playing online games together in the living room.

"Auntie, what's the situation with my cousin? It sounds like there's more to the story."

Feng Yazhen looked up at Lin Chen, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You don't need to worry about this."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Auntie, you're treating me like an outsider, being so formal with me."

Feng Yazhen frowned, but ultimately decided to lay everything out in the open to avoid Lin Chen making wild guesses. "Feng Yue is a highly talented cultivator, and quite capable. Objectively speaking, overall he might be a little bit better than Xiao Hang."

"In terms of blood relations, your maternal grandfather Feng Shanlei and the two current Feng family ancestors Feng Shanye and Feng Shanping are cousins. Your maternal grandfather did not break through to the Innate Realm. He was seriously injured in a fight in his early years, which affected his lifespan. He almost died at the age of one hundred. Therefore, our branch is relatively weak because there is no one above him."

“Feng Yue’s father is Feng Shulei, his grandfather is Feng Yuandong, and his ancestor is Feng Shanye. Simply put, Feng Yue is the great-grandson of Feng Shanye, the strongest ancestor of the Feng family. Xiao Hang is the great-grandson of his cousin. Naturally, there are conflicts of interest between the different branches, so the relationship is not very close. Therefore, there is a big difference between the great-grandson and the great-grandson of his cousin, both in terms of bloodline and affection.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen immediately understood: "No wonder my cousin said that many people support Feng Yue. Does that mean that the Feng family patriarch, Feng Shanye, supports Feng Yue? What is the opinion of the other patriarch, Feng Shanping?"

Feng Yazhen smiled and said, "Feng Shanye supports Feng Yue, and Feng Shanping naturally leans more towards Feng Yue as well. They haven't completely suppressed Xiao Hang. Their idea is to cultivate Feng Yue to be the next head of the family and to train Xiao Hang to be Feng Yue's right-hand man."

Lin Chen thought for a moment and smiled, "Since Feng Yue is so outstanding, the two elders' approach doesn't seem wrong, does it?"

Feng Yazhen nodded: "That's why Xiao Hang is somewhat disheartened. Moreover, besides the favor of the two ancestors, Feng Yue also has the support of the Han family of Xijing."

"The Han family of Xijing?"

Lin Chen frowned: "Is it also one of the Four Clans and Twelve Surnames?"

Feng Yazhen nodded, her gaze slightly complicated: "The Four Sects and Twelve Clans basically encompass the top sects and families in the entire Western Capital. The Feng, Wang, and Liu families can only be considered as families with lower strength among the Twelve Clans. After all, as you know, each of the three families only has two Innate Grandmasters in charge, while the Five Dragons Sect has six Innate Grandmasters, and Guo Tang's combat power is also extremely strong..."

Feng Yazhen sighed: "Although everyone says there are four sects and twelve surnames, there are actually different levels and strata among them. In terms of overall strength, the Five Dragons Sect can probably rank third. The two ahead of it are the Heavenly Martial Sect and the Han Family. However, the Heavenly Martial Sect has always been low-key and doesn't stand out much. It has a somewhat detached feeling from the world. The Han Family, on the other hand, has a domineering style and is known as the number one surname in Xijing."

Lin Chen asked, "Why does the Han family support Feng Yue?"

Feng Yazhen smiled and said, "Feng Yue's wife, Han Mingna, is a member of the Han family, and she is also the granddaughter of Han Shanhe, one of the Han family's Grandmasters."

Lin Chen suddenly realized: "Then it's normal to support him, but Han Mingna's grandfather was a Xiantian (innate) being, while Feng Yue's great-grandfather was a Xiantian. In terms of age, he is inferior in comparison."

Feng Yazhen laughed and said, "That's why the Han family is known as the number one family in Xijing. The Han family has six generations living together. The only surviving member of the first generation, and also the strongest, is Han Yunfeng. He is almost 140 years old this year and is a famous master of the Innate Realm. His strength is said to rank among the top ten in the Nine Provinces..."
