My Lord God of War, your wife is attracting new lovers

Luo Qingran smiled coldly, indicating that she was not going to give her an explanation. I wonder if the head of the Wen family has the same attitude.

"I said that if you don't give me an explanation, I won't go back to the Wen family. I think the Wen family is big and powerful, with a lot of talented people, and they don't need me."

Wen Ruize didn't expect that this girl would say such a thing. Doesn't she know that having a backer will give her more confidence when traveling on this continent?

Wen Ruize glanced at Song Xi again. Yes, this girl was the disciple of the Song family's ancestor, and she had already recognized the Tang family, so she naturally had confidence.

Wen Ruize stood up, looked at Luo Qingran and said, "It seems that you don't want to return to the Wen family to recognize your ancestors?"

Luo Qingran also stood up, looked at him, and said, "It's not that I don't want to, I just don't want to go back like this without knowing the reason."

Wen Ruize sneered, "Haha, with Patriarch Song as your master, I guess you don't think highly of our Wen family. Well, since you don't think highly of the Wen family, then my trip today was in vain."

Luo Qingran was almost laughing at this man. Why did he look down on the Wen family? "Vice President Wen, you don't need to stir up trouble here. I can roughly guess what you are thinking. I have also found out what happened back then."

Having said that, Luo Qingran looked at Wen Ruize meaningfully, which made Wen Ruize immediately alert, but he didn't believe that this girl could find any evidence, so he relaxed again.

But Luo Qingran saw clearly the changes in his pupils as they contracted and expanded.

"Humph, I really don't understand what you are talking about, girl. The explanation you want is even more incomprehensible. Since you don't want to, I won't force you. Then I'll take my leave first!"

After Wen Ruize finished speaking, he bowed to Song Xi. After Song Xi nodded in agreement, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the study, leaving the Song family and returning to the Wen family the same way he came.

"Have you found out what happened in the Wen family back then?" Song Xi asked curiously.

Luo Qingran shook his head and said, "I only know that it is related to the competition for the position of the president of the Alchemist Association. The Wen Ruize just now was responsible for driving people out of the Wen family, and the Xizhou Iron Triangle was responsible for killing people."

"The person who provided the poison was a poison master named Liao from the Bai family, and the one who poisoned the family was an ordinary family named Liu. And the poison master named Liao has been handed over to the Wen family."

When Luo Qingran said this, his tone was solemn and mixed with a little sadness. Song Xi, who was standing beside him, felt distressed.

"The internal struggles of the noble families are all for the sake of gaining more power and say in the family. Born in such an environment, one must develop a cold heart from a young age. Wisdom, talent, and character are all necessary. Every day is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will fall behind."

"Even if you don't want to fight, you have to fight. Just like the various aristocratic families on this continent, they seem to be evenly matched, but underneath the calm surface, they are fighting to the death for family rankings and various resources. If you make even the slightest mistake, you will be devoured by the various forces."

"Back then, Wen Ruixuan and his wife were too tolerant, which is why they were easily expelled from the family, leading to a series of consequences and even a tragic end. Wen Ruoting was naturally heartbroken about this, but he was helpless against Wen Ruixuan's gentle personality. Originally, he planned to let Ruixuan serve as the president of the Alchemist Association and Ruize as the next head of the family. But he didn't expect that the position of president would result in a quarrel between the brothers."

Luo Qingran frowned. She never thought that Wen Ruize's actions would bring any benefit to her. Could it be...

Luo Qingran looked at Song Xi as if he had figured out the secret, and Song Xi nodded.

As the eldest son of the Wen family, Wen Ruize should have enjoyed the best resources of the family. Since he was a child, he was instilled with the idea that everything in the Wen family belonged to him. Unfortunately, five years later, his parents gave him a younger brother who was more talented than him.

Once this sense of crisis arises, the two brothers will naturally have conflicts. Originally, Wen Ruixuan, as the younger brother, had no idea about the position of the head of the family. On the contrary, because of his excellent talent in alchemy, he was accepted as an apprentice by Master Du and taught by him all the year round.

When Wen Ruize saw his younger brother leave the family, he began to win over and control the family's side branches and vassals. Wen Ruoting saw this but did not stop him. Instead, he felt that the eldest son was the best choice for the next head of the family.

Later, due to the rumors about the Pure World Green Lotus, in order not to implicate his disciple, Master Du had to send Wen Ruixuan back to the Wen family, and he himself disappeared.

But because of this, Wen Ruize once again felt a sense of crisis that he hadn't felt for a long time. Because at that time, many people in the family had already stood on his side, and it was easier for him to exclude Wen Ruixuan.

Old Du sent Wen Ruixuan back to the family in order to protect his apprentice, but he did not expect that this would bring him a fatal disaster. Later, Old Du also talked to Wen Ruoting, but did nothing and turned away.

Wen Ruoting knew that the Wen family had offended Old Du, and was afraid that if anything happened in the future, Old Du, as the leader of the alchemists, would no longer help their Wen family.

But the incident had already happened, and Ruize and his wife were already dead. While offending Elder Du, I'm afraid the relationship with the Tang family has dropped to a freezing point.

In the subsequent selection of the chairman position, Wen Ruize only managed to get the vice chairman position, and the chairman position remained vacant. It is conceivable that Mr. Du's intention was to prevent Wen Ruize from ever taking the chairman position.

The affairs of the Alchemist Association were complicated, and Wen Ruize gradually began to lose control of the family. Wen Ruoting saw this clearly, this was Du Lao's punishment for Wen Ruize, but Wen Ruize himself did not notice it at all, and was still complacent about what he had.

"Oh, you are so stupid and you don't even know it. After this incident, I'm afraid that the next head of the Wen family will not be Wen Ruize. Of course, if Wen Ruoting is a qualified head of the family." Luo Qingran said contemptuously.

Song Xi nodded. "Yes, for a qualified family head to make the family prosperous, ambition is indispensable, but this is not a reason for him to kill his brothers who have the same father and mother. People who do whatever it takes to achieve their goals and have no bottom line in what they do are likely to drag the entire family into a bottomless abyss."

Luo Qingran's clear and bright almond-shaped eyes rolled around, and she asked with a smile, "Master, do you know where Master Du is now?"

Song Xi was stunned by Luo Qingran's question, and then he laughed, "You clever fellow, your father was Mr. Du's apprentice back then, and you also want to make the same identity public. So, do you want to lure your grandfather out?"

Luo Qingran nodded, "Yes, Wen Ruize is not the head of the family after all, nor is he the president of the Alchemist Association. If he makes a move again, I'm afraid your grandfather will be in trouble."

Isn't it necessary to have troubles? One is his first son and a child with high hopes. The other is a grandson with excellent alchemy talent and apprentice of Mr. Du.

If Wen Ruoting could treat Luo Qingran well, the relationship between the Wen family, Du Lao and the Tang family would be eased a lot. But Luo Qingran had said clearly before that if she wanted to recognize her ancestral roots, she had to uncover the scandal of Wen Ruize and outsiders killing her new brother.

This is exactly what Wen Ruize fears the most. He knows that once the incident is exposed, all his previous efforts will be in vain. Who else can sincerely assist a person who killed his own brother for power and status?

He is so disregarding of family ties. If these unrelated people get in his way in the future, won't they end up in a bad way?

Luo Qingran laughed softly, "What does this have to do with me? I just want to avenge my biological parents. If my father hadn't died, based on his talent, he would have been an imperial-level alchemist. Even in the current Wen family, such a person is rare."

Song Xi knew that although her disciple was kind-hearted, he had a clear sense of right and wrong, not to mention that this matter concerned her biological parents in this life. But thinking of Master Du, Song Xi hesitated again.

"Although your Master Du has not been with you for a long time, he has paid a lot for your body. However, recently Du Zhong's secret agents who have been sent to the mainland to search for the Pure World Green Lotus and the Goddess have been acting more and more frequently. He is also a trouble-taker, so I have to discuss this with him first."

Luo Qingran understood this very well. If Master Du was not afraid of trouble, he would not have been hiding his identity and disappeared for so many years. So, she nodded to Song Xi and said, "Then I'll trouble you and Master Du. If it really doesn't work, I'll think of other ways. At worst, I can go directly to the Alchemist Association to register as an alchemist."

But what Luo Qingran didn't say was that if she openly registered and took the alchemist level test, it would probably attract the attention of the entire continent. She wouldn't even be able to take back the pills she made during the test.

If that happens, the news that the elixir contains the breath of the wood spirit will spread like wildfire. That will be even more troublesome. If it attracts Du Zhong's attention, it may affect the progress of my revenge for my parents.

Song Xi also knew the interests involved, so he patted Luo Qingran's hand comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, I think Mr. Du will agree."
