Yang Ruomang narrowed her eyes, “What do you mean?”
Chu Feilong sighed and said, “This is a matter of my Chu Family’s eternal legacy! Eldest sister-in-law, why are you so determined to block it?” Suddenly, he spoke with indignation, “Eldest sister-in-law, what are your true intentions?”
“You insist that this is your son! We need to verify his identity and ensure the purity of our bloodline, and yet you are obstructing us! Even a simple verification of identity—you're risking lives over it!”
Chu Feilong shook his head, sighed, and his expression grew solemn, “I really don’t want to doubt you, Eldest Sister-in-law!”
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiong Cheng and Chu Feiyan both lowered their heads.
Chu Feilong's words were logical and coherent, making it hard for anyone to think otherwise.
In the eyes of the men, even losing an arm would be worth it if it could prove one's innocence. How much more for just five fingers?
In the martial arts world, who among them had not suffered worse injuries than losing five fingers? The Chu Family had stood strong for generations; not to mention five fingers, how many lives had been lost?
Yet they could not comprehend how cruel it would be to break the five fingers of a son that a mother had owed for eighteen years in front of her!
Chu Feilong took advantage of the martial artists' iron blood indifference and the strong sense of guilt felt by a mother. He calculated that Yang Ruolan would never allow anyone to harm a single hair on her son, even if it meant her own death!
Thus, he incited the situation without restraint!
And he did it all under the guise of loyalty and righteousness!
“Chu Feilong! You’ve gone too far!” Chu Feiling stepped forward angrily, “How dare you speak to your eldest sister-in-law like that?!”
“I'm sorry, Eldest Brother,” Chu Feilong said with a heavy expression, “Please believe me, I want to doubt Eldest Sister-in-law less than anyone!”
“But you still doubt!”
Chu Feiling shouted angrily, “You don't believe your sister-in-law, but do you believe me? I said this is my son! My only son! He is the descendant our Chu Family has owed for eighteen years! Is that not enough?”
“Not enough!” Chu Feilong straightened his back, speaking plainly, “Eldest Brother, it’s not that I don’t believe you. It’s just… I believe in blood from the tip of the tongue and the Amethyst Soul! That is the bloodline recognized since birth!”
He spoke with a hint of guilt in his eyes, “Eldest Brother, I know you and Eldest Sister-in-law are reluctant, but… how could this matter be taken lightly? Love for children can cloud judgment. If there truly is a conspiracy… then it would be a trivial matter for our Chu Family to become a laughingstock, but losing what our ancestors sacrificed their blood for is a big deal.”
At this point, Chu Feilong's face was filled with pain as he suddenly stood up, took two steps back, straightened his clothes, and knelt down, his face full of sorrow, “Eldest Brother, for the sake of our Chu Family’s millennia of legacy… be ruthless this once! Eldest Sister-in-law… even if I seem heartless today… I ask you, please provide evidence!”
“For the Chu Family, for the clan, for our descendants… and for the heroic souls of our ancestors…” Chu Feilong knelt upright, tears streaming down his eyes, yet he did not blink, crying out in anguish, “Eldest Brother! Eldest Sister-in-law! Please… grant me this!”
Chu Feilong's kneeling shocked everyone present!
Old Master Chu Xiong Cheng looked at his second son with a complex expression, a glimmer of tears flashing in his eyes, along with a touch of comfort.
A man’s knees have gold beneath them!
If not driven to extremes, how could Chu Feilong, the current head of the Chu Clan, bow down to such an extent?
This showed Chu Feilong's unwavering loyalty to his family! He valued the bloodline inheritance to the utmost!
To have such descendants in the Chu Family would surely comfort their ancestors!
