Min Guangping and Gu Feng, of course, knew why Zu Xiao wanted to spread the news.
First, Zu Xiao still remembered how the Luo Family members had connived at switching medicines, almost killing his younger brother.
Although an experienced Feng Shui Master from the Luo Family had come out, stating that Luo Chun’er had been disowned, this was only because the incident had affected the Luo Family’s reputation; otherwise, they certainly wouldn’t have given the Zu Family a real explanation.
In the eyes of these ancient Fengshui Families, offending these rich tycoons didn’t really matter.

Instead, they dared not recklessly seek revenge, fearing retaliation through a Feng Shui setup would bring trouble.
But while direct retaliation was not feasible, tripping someone up behind the scenes was, and that’s exactly what Zu Xiao did.
Second, they knew Zu Xiao wanted to help build momentum for Feng Shui Master Luo Ning proactively.
Both wanted to get on good terms with Luo Ning, which is why they agreed to spread the word.
Min Guangping didn’t exactly bear a grudge against Luo Yuefeng, but he still felt somewhat resentful.
If Luo Ning hadn’t appeared, leaving his family’s Feng Shui entirely in Luo Yuefeng’s hands, he had no idea what chaos would have ensued at home.
If your skills are not up to par, then you shouldn’t harm others with your incompetence.
Especially when Min Guangping, with his two younger brothers, returned to their ancestral home in the fishing village and saw that the situation was exactly as Luo Ning had described.
The recent typhoon had also affected the fishing village.
The ancestral hall had not been refurbished for a long time; as a result, one of the beams had fallen, crushing the ancestral tablets.
The areas gnawed by worms did indeed look sharp, directly pointing at the center of the hall, forming a malevolent force.
Min Guangping and his brothers immediately hired someone to repair the ancestral home and hall. They also asked a friend from a prestigious jewelry family to help carve the seal described by Luo Ning.
Due to Zu Xiao’s publicity, there was a lot of interest in this matter.
After returning home that evening, people started to show up at their door or called to inquire.
The three brothers didn’t conceal anything, recounting everything that Luo Ning had pinpointed about their ancestral home.
Min Guangping also shared the perilous encounter he had experienced that night, adding an especially mysterious aura to the story.
However, everyone knew Min Guangping’s character; he would never fabricate a story just to vouch for Luo Ning.
This proved that Luo Ning surpassed even the most esteemed ladies from the Luo Family.
After the story spread far and wide, many tycoons on Xiang Island started to share a similar sentiment.
They had once praised Luo Yuefeng as a peerless young woman leading the younger generation of the Luo Family, but now they harbored doubts.
Was she still considered a leading figure? She was no match for the star Feng Shui Master from the Capital City.
But everyone’s perception of Luo Ning’s ability climbed to an even higher level.
To diagnose the issues with the Min family’s ancestral home without being on-site was incredibly impressive.
Many well-known Feng Shui Masters they knew couldn’t achieve that.
As such, when Zu Xiao brought Luo Ning to the auction the next day, they encountered many people who eagerly greeted them.
There were even those who expressed a desire to engage Luo Ning’s Feng Shui services.
However, Zu Xiao helped to deflect these requests, and Gu Feng and Min Guangping, who were also attending the auction, actively shielded Luo Ning, preventing those without significant status or background from approaching.
Luo Yuefeng also came to the auction with an old Feng Shui Master associated with the Luo Family on Xiang Island.
The Luo Family’s representative on the island was a man over sixty, Luo Kaiyuan, the current Family Head’s brother.
His Feng Shui skills were strong, and with over thirty years rooted in the island, he was the true representative of the Luo Family’s power there.
Seeing Luo Ning, who was protected by Zu Xiao and the others, Luo Kaiyuan’s gaze fixed firmly on her.
Luo Yuefeng was aware of Luo Ning’s identity, and naturally, Luo Kaiyuan was as well.
Especially when he saw Luo Ning, whose appearance bore some resemblance to Luo Yicheng, he was even more certain that she was part of the Luo Family’s bloodline existing outside the family.
He turned to Luo Yuefeng beside him and asked, “Does Luo Ning know about her own background?”
Last night, Luo Yuefeng had taken the initiative to seek him out and reveal the investigation into Luo Ning’s background.
He had himself been prompted to look into Luo Ning’s background because a Feng Shui Master from Capital City had managed to overshadow the leading figure of the family’s younger generation, which was something remarkable indeed. Just then, he had stumbled upon this information.
Thus, he was quite satisfied with Luo Yuefeng’s forthright confession.
His feelings towards Luo Ning were somewhat complex, however.
He and the Family Head were brothers and had a very good relationship.
He had watched Luo Yicheng and his brother grow up.
Back in the day, compared to the outstanding Luo Yiqi, the young Luo Yicheng seemed much more mediocre and had a lackadaisical demeanor.
Therefore, both the family and the older generation had placed great hopes in Luo Yiqi and had invested a lot of effort into cultivating him.
Who would have known that he would die young?
It was only after Luo Yiqi’s death that everyone discovered Luo Yicheng, having had his brother to shield him and not wanting to steal the limelight, had never really shown his true talents intentionally.
Once Luo Yiqi was gone, and Luo Yicheng was forcibly pushed into the successor’s position and closely monitored, they discovered that he was completely a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
In terms of talent and comprehension, he was a genius the likes of which hadn’t been seen in centuries.
It was just a pity that because of his opposition to an arranged marriage, he left home and went his own way.
Now that he had been found and brought back, he was still staunchly against the arrangements of his elder brother and his wife, and had been thrown into the Family’s Forbidden Land.
Regarding the matter of having Luo Yicheng inherit from two family branches, the senior members of the family were also in agreement.
Therefore, as long as Luo Yicheng did not agree to marry the main branch’s lady, the Luo Family would not accept his wife and children from outside.
Now, seeing Luo Yicheng’s daughter from outside the family, with her talent not falling short, Luo Kaiyuan felt that such a promising young shoot would be wasted outside; it would be better to bring her back for cultivation within the family.
He believed his elder brother would not object after all, for no matter what, she was his own granddaughter and wouldn’t truly be disregarded.
With these thoughts in mind, he just wasn’t sure whether Luo Ning was aware of her own identity.
Luo Yuefeng’s eyes flickered as she responded, “I don’t know about that.”
“However, Luo Ning and Luo Ying have had private interactions, with Luo Ying being very protective of Luo Ning,” she added.
Standing behind them, acting as a mere backdrop, Luo Ying: “…”
Luo Yuefeng, that woman, was truly scheming, blatantly selling her out with no good intentions.
Indeed, Luo Kaiyuan turned his head and asked, “Luo Ying, have you told Luo Ning about your uncle’s matters?”
Luo Ying knew her cousin was indifferent to the reveal of her identity and her relation to the Luo Family.
Thus, she honestly replied, “I have.”
Seeing that her grandfather seemed to want to confront her cousin about her identity, she didn’t see the need to lie anymore.
Luo Kaiyuan continued to inquire, “Did you tell her everything? Including the matter of inheriting two family branches?”
Luo Ying rolled her eyes internally; what else was she supposed to do, hide it from her cousin?
But outwardly, she dutifully responded, “Yes, I told her.”
Luo Kaiyuan frowned, “Ridiculous, how could you just go around talking about such matters?”
By saying that, Luo Ning would undoubtedly have a not-so-favorable impression of the Luo Family.
Luo Ying couldn’t help but retort, “My cousin is not an outsider.”
These old men are a joke, acting as if they’re afraid my cousin will find out what they’ve done. It’s like they want to play the saint after committing the sin.
