Chapter 147 Inheritance Begins
the old grand dowager looked at her again, "i ask you one last time, after obtaining the inheritance, will you take care of the fu family, all of them?"
"of course! as a descendant of the fu family, it's my unshirkable duty," fu yingying nodded gravely.
the old grand dowager said, "good, i will now perform the meridian and bone cleansing on you... to help you charge towards the fox charm third level. only when you reach this cultivation realm will you be eligible to inherit the heaven mandate domain my mother left behind!"
fu yingying nodded, "old grand dowager, what should i do?"
"just don't move!"
the old grand dowager extended her palm forward, and the air around them immediately solidified. fu yingying felt her entire body restrained by a force, unable to move anymore.
"come, let me show you my destiny..."
with a gentle swipe from the old grand dowager, fu yingying's vision blurred as she felt as though she was in the river of destiny. in an instant, as if transcending the shackles of time, the old lady before her eyes turned young, barely in her teens.
as a child, the old grand dowager was as beautiful and lovely as her but had a stubborn tenacity. taught the ways of cultivation by her mother, she didn't want to learn, often slacking off, until one day her mother returned home gravely injured. the previously kind uncles and aunts, cousins, and brothers no longer showed their tenderness, but revealed their ferocious true faces.
"if she has no talent, then leave the inheritance to my child!"
"better give it to my child, one of the eight great inheritances, can't be wasted in your hands..."
"don't worry, i will take good care of qing'er, so she has no worries. just give me the inheritance!"

people came every day, speaking sweetly, but in reality, they were forcing her hand. the old grand dowager's mother couldn't bear it anymore and one night, took her to quietly leave qingqiu mountain. however, they weren't far when they were ambushed.
former friends and family, who once appeared so kindly, turned out to be incredibly brutal when faced again.
her mother, in order to protect her, sustained heavier and heavier injuries, at the brink of death at any moment. however, the people who came to hunt them down were also mostly killed.
the two fled to zouyi city. her mother couldn't take it anymore and, enduring immense pain and torment, transformed into the heaven mandate domain. since the old grand dowager's foundation was damaged, her cultivation could no longer improve, and she had no choice but to marry into a family with the surname fu and stay here.
then it was the girl who gradually grew up, wanting to avenge her mother, but had no means to do so. she had to live in anonymity, daring not to take the surname hu, but only fu...
the later events, fu yingying was basically aware of. the river of destiny flowed before her eyes, she, at this moment, was like becoming the old grand dowager, experiencing the other's life. her own river of destiny, under this close feeling, slowly merged with that of the other's.
the river of destiny that had just broken through the second realm, with the replenishment of the old grand dowager's strength, went from a narrow stream to a small river in the countryside, then to a rolling river...
intermediate stage of the second realm!
"is that... the zhang xuan who was charmed by fu yingying?"
the old grand dowager recognized him.
it was none other than the zhang xuan she had not thought much of.
isn't he just a small fry who was charmed? how could he possibly absorb my leaked out power?
one must know that her heavenly mandate vitality wasn't the same as the ones in the destiny plate; it was all refined and contained the essence of the fox charm destiny. without practicing this type of destiny, it was impossible to absorb.
"could it be... the one who understood the supreme secret technique wasn't fu yingying, but him?"
seeing the other party absorbing every last bit of the power, the old grand dowager finally reacted, her pupils shrinking.
she had always thought that it was fu yingying who charmed him, who charmed fu qingqing, fu jingjing, fu yiyi, and the others. if so... it would also make sense that it was this guy who had charmed those people!
recalling the first time she noticed the supreme secret technique, the ancestral blessing was completely absorbed... it seems this guy was right there!
the heaven mandate domain trembling, and her mother pleading for mercy... appeared to be this guy practicing as well!
"so that's how it is..."
the old grand dowager came to a sudden realization.
all along, she had believed that if there was charm, it was their descendants charming others. she could never have imagined that they had been charmed by someone else... and by a man, no less!
but it's too late... whatever she says now.
the beginning of the inheritance marked the end of her life, and even if she wanted to explain, it was too late.
different from her realization, fu yingying, who was receiving the inheritance, felt the robust power flow through her body and slip away immediately, full of urgency yet without any solution.
the third level of the fox charm destiny felt like a huge mountain completely blocking her intentions. she desperately wanted to understand it, but due to her limited talent, she never could.
only now did she realize that without sufficient talent, even receiving an inheritance would ultimately be a waste.
it was like having great ancestry and a lot of money in the previous generation, but if the descendant did not work hard, they would eventually squander it all...
unaware of their thoughts, zhang xuan at that moment was pondering how to make fu yingying speak up and hand over the agreed-upon 5,000 destiny plates.
such a number of destiny plates was definitely a huge fortune for the fu family and not something they would easily give away. he needed a proper reason.
after thinking for a long time and coming up with nothing, he rubbed his temples. zhang xuan could only wait for fu yingying to finish receiving the inheritance before discussing with her. as his stamina returned and he was about to stretch lazily, he suddenly froze, unable to believe it.
"fox charm destiny... since when did it reach the fourth level? is it that easy?"
