Fox Demon: Huaizhu is not a concubine, and hegemony has no wife

Chapter 268 Unbelievable

Dongfang Gu Yue came to the desk as usual, but found a thick stack of small books on the desk.

He was a little puzzled and casually flipped through a few pages, which recorded the experience of practicing the art of controlling fire and some doubts.

Although it was just a glance, Dongfang Gu Yue recognized that it was the handwriting of his eldest disciple Jin Renfeng.

He couldn't help but look up at his second daughter, Dongfang Qinlan, who was lying on the table not far away: "Who sent this?"

Dongfang Qinlan glanced at the desk and said nonchalantly, "My sister sent it to me. She said she wanted Dad to take a look. She said this book of cultivation experience is very well written. Should we include it in the library set up in the manor as a must-read book?"

"My sister said she wanted to build a 'library' in Shenhuoshan Villa. It would contain all kinds of books, miscellaneous books, records of famous stories, as well as various experiences and notes of previous practitioners..."

"library?"

There was a hint of doubt in Dongfang Guyue's eyes.

"We're going to build a place in the villa that everyone can enter and see. My sister said that if people like us in the villa have any questions during their studies, they can also look through the notes and experiences of their predecessors. If they are going out to gain experience, they can also read various travel notes and introductions to various places..."

Dongfang Qinlan whispered, "What else is there? I don't remember clearly. You can ask your sister about these things."

Dongfang Gu Yue stood there with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Although Dongfang Qinlan didn't say much, Dongfang Gu Yue roughly understood that this "library" was similar to his study, but the study was always a very private thing for a person, usually only he could read it, and it was difficult for outsiders to browse through it.

But this "library" is open to the public, allowing any disciple in the library to go in and read books.

"That's a good idea."

Dongfang Guyue's eyes were filled with excitement. He could almost foresee how much help this "library" would bring to the villa once it was built.

Thinking of this, Dongfang Gu Yue carefully read Jin Renfeng's practice records.

Even though he had already reached the pinnacle of the art of controlling fire, Dongfang Gu Yue couldn't help but admire his disciple's understanding of the art.

But thinking that such a good disciple of his had died so young, he couldn't help but feel sad and angry.

Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Dongfang Gu Yue continued reading.

But as the story progressed, the resentment and dissatisfaction of the eldest disciple Jin Renfeng became more apparent.

"Although he can control the divine fire, he does not have a grasp of it. Even someone like him needs to borrow fire if he wants to use it."

Seeing this, Dongfang Gu Yue couldn't help but sigh. He could understand this better. Although others could also use the Dongfang family's 'Demon-killing Divine Fire', they needed to borrow it.

There is nothing we can do about this.

"The divine fire I control is nothing more than water without a source. It's like using a little bit less. If I want to use fire, I need to borrow it. Is this me controlling the fire, or is it someone else controlling me?"

"I, Jin Renfeng, am I going to be controlled by others my whole life?"

……

After quietly reading all of it, Dongfang Guyue put down the book, his heart restless for a long time. Although it was just simple handwriting, it made Dongfang Guyue feel his eldest disciple's inner reluctance, anger... and even dissatisfaction with him.

These were things he had never seen, felt, or even noticed in Jin Renfeng.

Until now, his eldest disciple Jin Renfeng had never shown these things in front of him. He never thought that his eldest disciple Jin Renfeng would actually hide such thoughts.

"Is this written by Jin Renfeng?"

Dongfang Gu Yue looked at the handwriting on the small book and found that it was indeed Jin Renfeng's handwriting.

If the handwriting can be imitated, but as for the understanding of the art of controlling fire, I am afraid that in the entire Shenhuoshan Villa, apart from him, the only one who can do it is his eldest disciple Jin Renfeng.

"Dad, have some tea."

Dongfang Qinlan brought over a cup of hot tea at some point.

Dongfang Gu Yue took it but did not drink it. Instead, he put down the teacup, stood up and walked out.

"Where is Daddy going?"

Dongfang Qinlan followed and asked curiously.

"Go check on your senior brother Jin Renfeng's residence."

"What's so good about him?"

Dongfang Qinlan muttered.

Dongfang Gu Yue didn't say anything, but just had a gloomy face. He had always been proud of having Jin Renfeng as his disciple, and thought he knew his disciple well enough, but he found that everything he saw was just superficial.

This made Dongfang Gu Yue feel a little uncomfortable.

…………

Soon, they arrived at Jin Renfeng's residence.

Naturally, no one dared to stop Dongfang Gu Yue, and he entered Jin Renfeng's residence smoothly.

Jin Renfeng's residence was simple, nothing special, so he went straight to the study.

Just casually checking it out.

"A few days ago, the young lady and Pastor Su barged in despite being stopped..."

The disciple who had previously stopped Su Mu and Dongfang Huaizhu immediately complained.

"I know. Go down."

Dongfang Gu Yue just took a look and continued to read in the study.

"Yes."

Although he was unwilling, the disciple still retreated respectfully.

"A little trick..."

Dongfang Guyue shook her head. She had suddenly received a cultivation note about the Golden Human Phoenix today, and it contained some special information...

All of this made Dongfang Gu Yue feel that it was done on purpose.

"I want to see what you want me to see..."

Dongfang Gu Yue murmured in his heart.

Soon, Dongfang Gu Yue found the pages of the book that were not hidden very secretly on a bookshelf.

Read carefully.

Dongfang Guyue's expression became increasingly gloomy.

Many of the pages in the book are about Jin Renfeng amassing wealth and doing shameful things...

Dongfang Gu Yue never thought that his good disciple Jin Renfeng would do such a thing.

In addition to these, the record about Jin Renfeng wanting to obtain the "blood exchange method" of the leech demon clan also made Dongfang Gu Yue's face turn slightly pale, and the hands holding the paper trembled slightly.

The old man's pupils widened at this moment.

An unbelievable thought came to his mind.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the inexplicable illness he had suffered a few days ago, so he gritted his teeth and walked towards his private kitchen gloomily.

After entering the kitchen, Dongfang Guyue discovered that there was a new person in the kitchen, which made him frown slightly: "Where is the old Zhang from before?"

"Reporting to the owner of the manor, I heard that he hanged himself a few days ago."

The cook's words made Dongfang Guyue grit her teeth: "Hanging for no reason?"

Seeing the owner's bad face, the cook immediately knelt down and said, "I heard that the eldest lady found something. I heard that Lao Zhang's hands and feet seemed to be a little shady..."

The cook hesitated.

Dongfang Gu Yue closed his eyes and clenched his fists unconsciously. His fingertips almost sank into the flesh and bright red blood flowed out, but the old man seemed to be completely unaware.

Although nothing is said explicitly, everything seems to have been said.

But he couldn't believe it no matter what.
