It was obviously a secret family history. Clearly, Leng Wushuang was aware of its existence. She thought no one else knew about it. Little did she know that Lan Yue would publicly expose the hidden story.
Outraged, she defended herself fiercely, as though she was going to start a fight with Lan Yue. Her courtesy vanished completely.
Gu Xijiu waited until she was done with her frantic self-defense. “Actually, it is easy to prove your identity, whether you are of Blue Fox descent or not. Members of the Blue Fox clan can change their forms easily. Why don’t you show us your transfiguration? Isn’t it a better proof than your verbal clarification?”
Leng Wushuang took a deep breath before she continued, “Alright, I will show you my true ability.”
She performed a series of spells before the transformation. A few moments later, her appearance did change a little, with her eyes a little bluer and her size a little taller. The shape of her face was a little altered, from round to oblong. She looked somewhat foxy.
She was pleased with her own transformation. She turned her body around and took a casual spin. “Lan Yue, can you see it now? I can transform!” She exclaimed.
Mrs. Yan, who was still in shock by Lan Yue’s sudden clarification, finally found her relief. “Wushuang is indeed a member of Blue Fox family. The evidence is irrefutable now. Mr. Lan, what else do you wish to say?”
She decided to go ahead regardless. She pulled Yan Chen’s sleeves and continued making her stand, “Yan Chen, take a look at Wushuang. She is truly a member of Blue Fox descent. If you marry her, she will help you indefinitely in your spiritual power. You are the future head of our family. I shall not let you fool around.”
Yan Chen broke free from her grasp. “I am not interested in anything related to the Blue Fox family!”
Before Yan Chen’s mother could say anything, Gu Canmo, who had remained quiet during the entire drama, interrupted abruptly, “No, that is not right! That is nothing like the true transfiguration. She is merely concealing.”
In awe, Leng Wushuang did not expect Gu Canmo to blow her cover so swiftly.
As expected, Lan Yue steeled himself with a light laugh. “Your skill is not worth mentioning at all. From what I have observed, your grandmother must have fooled your grandfather simply with her concealment, thus demanding his irrevocable commitment. Blue Fox’s transfiguration is nothing like your inferior skill. You can only fool the amateurs.”
Absolutely panicked, Leng Wushuang grew pale. She knew that the majority of the people here were amateurs, so she decided to resort to her sophistry. Gu Xijiu could not take it any longer. “Lan Yue, show her how true transfiguration looks like.”
Without further ado, Lan Yue performed a spell and immediately transformed into another form.
His transformation was the one that Gu Xijiu had seen from Lan Waihu’s memory. The celestial quality that he possessed was incomparable. Not anyone could impersonate.
When he revealed his true form, her impersonation was instantaneously revealed as well. The crowd could easily distinguish them. All eyes fell instantly on Leng Wushuang, who was clearly a counterfeit.
Leng Wushuang stood aghast. She tried to explain, “This… You… Your parents are both from Blue Fox descent, so your bloodline is definitely purer than mine. I have only a quarter of the bloodline, so you and I should look different.”
Lan Yue looked irritated. Scornfully, he answered, “At the end of the day, you are still trying to defend yourself! How dare you associate yourself as a member of the Blue Fox family! It is fine if you just play tricks amongst your own family, but now, you are trying to recite it in public and fool everyone! Are you aware of the consequences of your action? Your entire family will be convicted of the death penalty! Once this news gets back to the Blue Fox family, your entire family will be hunted down by their assassins.”
