After all, if the other side was so righteous in their manner of doing things then there wouldnât be such a cockroach among their ranks!
Can anyone tell me what happened? Why are all these powers acting this way? Did they all get knocked on the head or something?
âSenior,â Liu Yang grumpily shoots a glare at his own son before turning back with a flattering smile. âMy useless son is truly outrageous. But since Iâve already punished him, Iâm hoping Senior could have leniency when carrying out your side of the beating.â
After saying this, his sight then shifted to Lan Shaoyan with a smile as well: âThis must Seniorâs second grandson. Look at how promising he is, truly a figure of upstanding nature. My son made a terrible mistake a couple of days ago but thank goodness you were there to stop him. The lesson is a good one, a great one! Allow me to extend my gratitude for the lecture you instilled upon him.â
If it werenât for Liu Yangâs sincere look then perhaps Lan Shaoyan would still believe the guy was faking it and inwardly cursing and yelling at him inside.
âIt seems that all of you really donât know,â the elder of the Shadowless Sect sighed. âThen let me ask this, does any of you know about Bai Yan being an adopted daughter of Lan Yue?â
The grandpa frowned: âI have seen my daughterâs letter, but that doesnât change anything. Yanâer will always be my familyâs granddaughter. Why do you ask, did she get into some sort of trouble while outside? If so then its also my fault for not disciplining her. If you people want to make trouble then send it my way.â
âNo, no,â the elder hurriedly shook his head. âSenior Lan, donât misunderstand me. What I want to say is that Bai Yanâs biological mother is Miss Bai Ning, the long-lost young lady of the Medicine Sect!â
Boom!
These words were like thunder, sending the entire Lan household asunder.
Bai Yanâs biological mother is Miss Bai Ning, the missing young lady of the Medicine Sect?
Now the grandpa remembers. According to his old memories, his daughter Lan Yue did have a friend by that name long ago, just that the name didnât ring any bells until nowâ¦.
âIs what you saying absolutely true?â Trembling right down to his fingers, everything seems so surreal to this old grandpa. âBut what does this have to do with my Lan House?â
The fact that Bai Yan was the disciple of the Holy Land elders didnât change much when it became public knowledge. The reasoning being the girlâs not a genuine child of the Lan household. Of course, Old Lord Lan would be pleased that the girl could find her biological family, but that doesnât explain anything about the change in attitude from everyone.
âOf course it does,â the elder makes a rather frank laugh like heâs quite amused by the situation. âMiss Bai Yan declared it already, saying the entire Lan House is to be invited to Lord Baiâs birthday celebration. And as a way to please his newfound granddaughter, Bai Chang Feng has made it publicly known that you are to be treated with respect.â
âWhether it be the members of the Medicine Sect or the other powers out there, the rule applies to everyone! And if anyone dares to refuse this order, they will become the enemy of the Medicine Sect. Thatâs a declaration directly from the Lord himself.â After saying that, the elder from the Shadowless Sect then sneaks a peak at the moopy looking man from the Blood Moon Sect.
âMisunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding,â sweating profusely, Liu Yang attempts to downplay the matter. âMy son is indeed immature and ignorant, Sir Shaoyan beat him good and proper. From now on the citizens of the Liu Huo Kingdom is my Blood Moon Sectâs responsibility. What happened that day will never happen again.â
