âHaha, all of you have good eyes. My granddaughter really is astounding and unprecedented.â Laughing aloud without care, Bai Chang Feng happily accepts the compliments.
If it was in the past, these people wouldâve at least secretly called this old grandpa shameless, but now⦠they couldnât because Bai Yan was in every sense of the word, excellent.
âHumph!â Ren Yi (second) grumpily huffs a snort, âWhat are you all so happy for? Yan Yan is my disciple first!â
âIn any case, she will always be our most precious disciple.â Zheng Qi (first) slightly raises a smile as well instead of going all huffy and grumpy like his second brother. Heâs not angry at having to share his disciple, he only wants to give the girl his blessing.
âFine, fine, Iâll leave things be then,â Ren Yi sighed. âItâs just that I have been robbed by this old fart several times before so of course it will leave me with a bad taste. But⦠if itâs for my precious Yanâerâs sake, I will accept it. However, if the Medicine Sect tries to stop her from leaving or try anything against her will, I wonât let things slide!â
âGrandfather,â Bai Yan were all smiles, âwhen is your birthday?â
âIn about half a month,â Bai Chang Feng guffawâs a laugh, âIâm going to announce to the world again that you are my granddaughter.â
Even now, the old grandfatherâs excited mood hasnât slowed down in the least to the point where he had to wipe away some of those trickling tears when no oneâs looking.
âRight, I remember Zhanpeng said that the woman who adopted you is called Lan Yue? Is it the Lan House from the Liu Huo Kingdom? Letâs do this then, you invite those whom you wish to come and we will treat them as guests of honor.â
âOkay,â Bai Yanâs smile was now reaching up to her eyes. âOld Grandpa Lan is also my grandfather, his status in my heart will never change. Just that his temper isnât the best and has a proud nature to his personality. I hope that everyone from the Medicine Sect could accommodate this when he comes.â
âOh yes, thereâs still her Highness the Dowager.â Thinking it through, she continues to go down her list. âAs a result of an incident in the past, it was only she and my disciple Nangong Zhun who stood by my side when not knowing about my identity. Grandfather, could I also invite them both here for your celebration? I owe her a favor.â
For the sake of her two shifus face, Bai Yan didnât divulge about the embarrassing matters regarding the things related to the Holy Land. However, the Dowagerâs kindness has really touched her heart so she couldnât ignore this.
âPutting the icing on the cake is extremely easy, but adding coal to the fire in the winter snow is not so simple. The friendship between you two is commendable.â Bai Chang Feng nods in approval, âThis birthday celebration is mainly to bring you back into the ancestral books and allow others to know of your status. If you wish to bring someone you are familiar with then by all means, Grandfather here has no complaints. As for that Old Lord Lanâ¦â
Halting his words then, the old grandfather then eyes the crowd with a look of stern seriousness: âHe is to be treated in the same manner as I! Whoever dares to offend him will receive severe punishment!â
If it hadnât been for the Lan House and their kindness, then perhaps my granddaughter wouldâve already perished from this world. That debt can never be repaid with something so meager!
âYes Milord.â All of the members of the Medicine Sect answers in unison, their voices resoundingly loud and crisp.
In the same way, Bai Chang Feng words today have directly become a declaration to the other powers that Old Lord Lan was to be treated like the man himself. Otherwise, itâs a direct affront to the Medicine Sect of the highest order.
Must not offend the Lan House! Must not offend the Lan House! These were the only thoughts running through these attendeesâ heads right now.
