Feng Ao Xiu original purpose on visiting Feng Yu Wei was to inquire if he was the spy. But there's too much interruption at that time, so he could only ask it now.
Feng Yu Wei nodded in confirmation. "I could not even afford Spirit Stones for my cultivation, much less something luxurious like a Spirit Beast."
What Feng Yu Wei said makes sense. Having a Spirit Beast as a pet was rare. The usual way of acquiring one was to buy one in the market. But, that was only as a caged pet, where the Spirit Beast doesn't even like you. They were mostly purchased by the wealthy as a decoration or as practice material.
What Feng Ao Xiu and Feng Yu Wei talking about was tamed Spirit Beast which is even rarer. To have tamed Spirit Beast means that the Spirit Beast must be willingly following you and submit to you as it's master. However, most Spirit Beasts were too proud, they won't obey human even if they were tortured.
"But what about the investigation unit said?" Feng Ao Xiu asked again.
"Actually, on that day, I really met a Spirit Beast by chance. It just kept following me all day long. However, that was all that the Spirit Beast does. By the next morning, it has gone away. That does not make me a Spirit Beast Tamer, right?"
Those who have Spirit Beast by their side were called Spirit Beast Tamer. If Feng Yu Wei could send a Spirit Beast as a messenger, then there's a possibility that Feng Yu Wei was a Spirit Beast Tamer. However, the more he talks with Feng Yu Wei, the more Feng Ao Xiu was not convinced.
However, nothing was guaranteed, there were too many factors. It could be true. It could be that the Spirit Beast Tamer was from the Zhao Clan's side instead, and Feng Yu Wei could be lying. At this point, Feng Ao Xiu regrets that he did not bring the Lie Detector, Qian Hui with him. But, even he wants to, he could not because Qian Hui was captured for being a spy.
Feng Yu Wei continued, "As for the sending it as a messenger... I don't know anything. It was a hoax! Someone must have hated me and spread that nasty rumour!"
Feng Ao Xiu suspiciousness toward Feng Yu Wei has reached its maximum point. Feng Yu Wei was clearly lying, an answer such as I don't know, a hoax and nasty rumour could only be seen as making excuses.
Imagine these questions being asked. What happens? I don't know. Did You really do it? No, it was only a rumour. With those kinds of answer, no one would be convinced.
Suddenly, Feng Qiu Han said embarra.s.singly. "Ah... Actually, that was me..."
"What!!!" Feng Ao Xiu and Feng Yu Wei exclaimed.
"You see... Previously I don't really like Yu Wei..." Feng Qiu Han rubbed the back of his neck "So after I saw Yu Wei being investigated, I spread those rumours..."
"You!" Feng Yu Wei was obviously angry.
"Look, I'm sorry. I'm sorry!"
Now, Feng Ao Xiu was convinced, Feng Yu Wei was innocent after all. With Feng Qiu Han's testimony, everything comes to light.

That day, after he fought against Feng Ao Xiu, Feng Yu Wei met a Spirit Beast by coincidence. It was not weird to see one or two harmless Spirit Beast entering a village or even a Clan Residence. That Spirit Beast unexpectedly following Feng Yu Wei. It was a rare sight to behold because except for tamed Spirit Beast, no one would think it would be with a human.
Then, when the spy investigation began, Feng Yu Wei was asked with the Spirit Beast. Feng Yu Wei answers it truthfully. However, because there were rumours that it was a used a messenger, the investigation unit never erase Feng Yu Wei from the suspicion list.
Those rumours were made by Feng Qiu Han after all. It would also explain why there was also news that Feng Yu Wei's breakthroughs were planned.
Looks like excuses such as I don't know and a rumour was a proper answer after all.
However, there was still a mystery. Why did that Spirit Beast follow Feng Yu Wei? It also happens on that day? Is it really a coincidence? Only the Spirit Beast itself could answer.
Meanwhile, after the fight against the Red Black Tigers, Feng Yu Wei and Feng Qiu Han have reconciled. They could even be considered friends now.
There were some Spirit Beast inside the Blue Spirit Cave, but most of them were weak and harmless, and the strongest was the Red Black Tigers from earlier.
Against the Spirit Beasts, the two juniors were coordinating very well. There were five dangerous wolves in front of them.
Roaring Tiger Punch!
After receiving this punch, the leader of the wolves flew away into the cave wall. Seeing its leader was defeated, the four wolves scatter.
"Ahh... They run away!" Feng Qiu Han said.
"Let's leave them, they were only low Second Ranked Spirit Beast. It would not help us train in any way. We still need to find the Power Soul Root."
Feng Qiu Han smiled bitterly. He was not satisfied with the Spirit Beasts inside the cave. Except for the Red Black Tigers, everything was too easy.
"Ack! Ack!" Then, another Spirit Beast came before them. It was a small bird.
Feng Qiu Han sighed. This Spirit Beast was obviously very weak. How could this small bird compare to the Red Black Tiger or the wolves from earlier?
"This bird!" Feng Yu Wei was a bit surprised. "This bird was the Spirit Beast that followed me a few days ago."
"It's this bird!" Feng Qiu Han became even more depressed. A bird that would casually enter a human settlement, and follow a human was harmless. Now, he did not have a chance to fight.
"It could not be the same bird, right?" Feng Ao Xiu asked. Thinking it was just the same type of Spirit Beast but a totally different individual.
"I think... it's the same..." Feng Yu Wei answered, but he was not sure.
Just when Feng Ao Xiu think it was just a coincidence, then the Spirit Beast in the conversation appeared. Now it was not so simple anymore.
"h.e.l.lo! h.e.l.lo!" The bird screamed.
"Oh! it talks!" Feng Qiu Han became interested.
"It's a parrot" replied Feng Ao Xiu. "A parrot is a type of bird that could mimic human conversation. Mostly, they don't know what they're talking about."
Feng Ao Xiu explained to his two juniors looking like an expert. Although he was weak, he was a former genius and had met plenty of Spirit Beast. But, he never saw this kind of parrot before.
"Ack! Fight! Fight!" The parrot widened its wing seemingly ready to attack.
"It doesn't seem dumb to me." Feng Yu Wei said.
"Haha... You want to fight?" Feng Qiu Han laughed coldly. "Let me teach you a lesson!"
Because the parrot was weak, Feng Yu Wei did not join.
Feng Qiu Han charged alone at the parrot. Towards a weak parrot, a small punch was enough.
* Pa! *
It was not the sound of Feng Qiu Han punches the parrot. But, the parrot slapping Feng Qiu Han's cheek.
Feng Qiu Han became very angry. He let down its guard by too much. The parrot easily dodged by jumping and slapped his face with its wing.
"Too weak! Too weak!" The parrot mocked Feng Qiu Han.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Someone with a lot of pride like Feng Qiu Han could not accept being slapped and mocked by a weak parrot. This time with full strength, he jumped towards the little bird.
Surprisingly, the parrot was faster than he thought. Once again it dodged and flew all the to Feng Qiu Han's face to give it another slap.
* Pa! *
Feng Qiu Han became angrier. One more time!
* Pa! *
He failed. Try Again!
* Pa! Pa! Pa! *
He failed and failed again!
"Yu Wei, come help me defeat this bird!" Knowing he could not defeat the parrot alone, Feng Qiu Han asked for help.
"Hahaha... You could not even defeat a small bird!" Feng Yu Wei laughed, still underestimating the parrot.
This time both Feng Yu Wei and Feng Qiu Han charged towards the parrot.
* Pa! *
This time Feng Yu Wei was being slapped.
His eyes immediately changed, "What's wrong with this bird?"
"Too weak! Too weak!" The parrot mocked both of them.
