Chapter 379 -378: All Feelings Are Inherited from You
The Luo Family also received the news.
In the Luo Family’s council hall, Family Head Luo sat with an icy expression, a cold aura emanating from him.
Beside him sat the Family Head’s wife, her complexion equally unpleasant.
The first wife sat at the lower end with Luo Yuefeng, her expression calm with neither joy nor anger discernible.
However, Luo Yuefeng’s eyes were full of complexity and envy.
How long had it been since they had seen each other, and Luo Ning was already capable of winning a battle against the Eighth Elder, something no one of the younger generation in the Luo Family could achieve.
In fact, it wasn’t just the younger generation of the Luo Family; it was likely that the younger generation of the entire Ancient Fengshui Family would struggle to achieve this.
Those sitting below were the high-ranking elders of the clan.
Many were feeling conflicted inside, truly astonished by Luo Ning’s talent and strength.
If only she had been born on the island as a child of the Luo Family.
Even if she was an outsider, with such talent and strength, taking her back for cultivation was also a possibility.
But clearly, Luo Ning was very hostile toward the Luo Family, otherwise, she wouldn’t have done what she did today.
An aged clan elder sighed and said, “Indeed she is Yicheng’s child, what a pity.”
What he meant by pity was that Luo Ning did not recognize the Luo Family, she lacked a sense of belonging to it, and she was unwilling to return.
Another person sneered, “There’s nothing to pity. All the talent in the world can’t change the fact that she was raised too wildly outside, without any manners.”
“She disrespected her elder, the Eighth Elder, no matter how you look at it, this is outright defiance.”
Someone agreed, “Exactly, she even said she would absolutely not recognize the Luo Family, such insolence! To hear her words, it’s clear she doesn’t hold the Luo Family in her eyes at all, just like that girl Luo Ranran, a calamity!”
This made the Family Head furrow his brows and cast a cold glance at the speaker.
After all, Luo Ning was the biological daughter of his son. If Luo Ning was a disaster, what did that make him, her grandfather?
The person who spoke received the Family Head’s chilly look and realized he had gone a bit too far with his last words, promptly shutting his mouth.
There were those who didn’t like the Eighth Elder’s faction either and opened their mouths to speak, “This time the Eighth Elder went too far.”
“I heard about the incident at the port; the Eighth Elder’s initial attitude toward Luo Ning was commanding. Wasn’t this intentionally pushing her away?”
“Indeed, the Eighth Elder even resorted to using a killing technique against Luo Ning. Doesn’t she know that this can have serious consequences?”
“This was clearly a way not to bring Luo Ning back and to find an excuse to destroy her foundation. Who knew it would backfire and she’d end up losing face to a young girl.”
“It’s not for me to say, but over the years, the Eighth Elder’s cultivation strength has not improved much. Her ability to form cliques and schemes has become stronger. She should be more careful.”
“The Eighth Elder has completely drawn hatred toward the Luo Family. It looks like Luo Ning thoroughly resents the Luo Family now.”
“Don’t forget, Yicheng is still in the Forbidden Land. If he finds out how the Eighth Elder treated his daughter, who knows what the consequences will be.”
These people had clearly become tired of seeing the Eighth Elder’s recent antics.
However, the last remark also reminded everyone that there was a ticking time bomb in the Forbidden Land.
Family Head Luo spoke with a stern face, “Enough, discussing this now is pointless.”
“We should talk about whether or not we should bring Luo Ning back now.”
The Family Head’s Wife interjected, “That’s only if she wants to come back.”
Displeased, she continued, “She herself declared publicly that she doesn’t recognize the Luo Family. I think we might as well act as if she doesn’t exist.”
She did not have much of a fondness for the granddaughter she had never met, especially since she had been causing trouble and embarrassment recently.
Luo Ning’s willfulness and rebellion inevitably reminded her of the way her second son had opposed her decision and left home.
He even started a family outside, the thought alone made her heart ache with anger, feeling betrayed by her son.
She always hoped her grandchildren would be born to the wives she carefully chose.
Especially after her eldest son passed away, she wanted more than ever to fulfill her uncompleted wishes, and thus her obsession with the matter grew stronger.
The Family Head glanced at his wife’s displeased eyes and sighed inwardly.
He actually had high hopes for Luo Ning, his own granddaughter who was already born and grown up, but since his wife did not like her, he could not force the issue.
The death of his eldest son was their greatest pain and regret, and he knew that his wife had not yet come to terms with it.
As a result, he hoped that his second son and his eldest son’s widow could have a child, to carry on the eldest branch’s lineage, and provide a descendant for his eldest son.
It was because he and his wife had poured so much love and hope into their eldest son.
His wife’s obsession was almost driving her mad, and what could he do but indulge her?
He also hoped that once the child was born, his wife could move on from her obsession, which was why he pressured his second son.
Of course, he also wished for his eldest son to have a descendant, if only as an emotional solace.
Who could have known that his second son would be so resistant, even rebelliously running away from home, and upon returning, he still disagreed, making his wife ill with anger.
The daughter his son had produced outside the family infuriated them even more.
Bringing her home, he feared it would disturb the peace of the household, but not bringing her back seemed a waste of Luo Ning’s talent.
The family then split into two factions.
One faction believed that Luo Ning, being a descendant of the Luo Family, should be brought back home, viewing her hostility towards the family as a misunderstanding that could be resolved with care and conversation.
Luo Ning’s talent was so great; it would be a pity and a waste to leave her outside.
Moreover, since she could easily defeat the Eighth Elder, it suggested she really might be able to carve a High-level Magical Tool.
The other faction sided with the Family Head’s Wife, contending that since Luo Ning was unwilling and did not acknowledge the Luo Family, there was no need for them to go out of their way to claim her.

An outside child with such great talent suggested that if Luo Yicheng fathered a child with the main branch’s daughter-in-law, that child would surely have even greater talent.
The more the Family Head listened, the more frustrated he became; a child’s talent is all well and good, but his second son has to be willing to have one!
If his son did not agree and would not be intimate with his daughter-in-law, where would this child come from?
“Enough, let’s not deal with this now, and stop sending people to look for her.”
For some reason, he had a feeling that Luo Ning’s visit boded ill, and whether she went to the Lou Family or to the Ancient Fengshui Family’s territory, she might cause quite a stir.
By then, the Luo Family would have to intervene.
Family Head Luo accompanied his wife back to her room and, watching her cry again from heartache, comforted her for a while before leaving quietly after she had fallen asleep.
As he walked, he somehow found himself at the Forbidden Land.
He then walked into the Forbidden Land.
Inside, he saw his son sitting cross-legged, who only opened his eyes upon his arrival.
Looking at his second son, he spoke with a hint of displaced anger, “Your mother is ill from anger again. Can’t you just indulge her once?”
Luo Yicheng replied expressionlessly, “How many times have my sister and I indulged her since we were children?”
“If my sister had not indulged her, she would not have married into the Lei Family and suffered so much.”
“I absolutely will not betray my wife and child. Please let Mother put that idea to rest.”
Family Head Luo’s expression soured. “You, you unfilial son.”
Luo Yicheng replied indifferently, “Unfilial I may be, but it’s better than being disloyal and unfilial.”
“It’s Mother’s overthinking that’s the problem—if she thought less, she wouldn’t fall ill.”
“And Father too, for all these years you’ve not only been under the thumb of your wife, but you’ve also become more muddled and unable to distinguish right from wrong.”
Family Head Luo was thoroughly vexed.
Every visit to his son always ended in irritation; no wonder his wife stopped coming after two visits.
“That’s why Luo Ning has such a sharp tongue. She must have inherited it from you, her unfilial father.”
Family Head Luo was so angered by his son that he blurted out what was on his mind without thinking.
As soon as the words were out, he felt a sinking feeling in his heart and indeed saw his typically composed son’s face change; suddenly, he regretted coming here today.
