Chapter 718 “The Lightning Strike of an Eighth Grade Pill (2)”
While the two elders of the Holy Land were making their way over at air splitting speed, the sky around the main residences of the Misty Fairy House had fallen into a gloomy storm.
Jun Tian Yue and her husband remained seated inside the main reception hall while they waited. Though the hope was slim, the couple didn’t want to let it go. But as always, there are bound to be some who simply doesn’t want the world to have a moment of peace sometimes.
“Chief, Madam, Elder Muzhen has come.” Rushing inside was a young maid, her face flustered and urgent.
“What?” the mistress of the house flew into a rage at the announcement. Slamming her hand against the table: “Didn’t I instruct my people to watch over her estate, how did she step out of her home without them knowing?”
Then before the maid could get another word in, an eerie laugh cuts in on their conversation from the front. Its annoying and filled with sarcasm.
“Madam, why are you so angry for? I’m only here to leave a few words, that’s all.”
Clenching her fist, Jun Tian Yue glares fire at the arrogant woman who barged into her home.
“What do you want to say?”
Among those part of the elder council, Muzhen was indeed one of a kind so it’s not entirely surprising that she could slip through the observers. What did surprise this madam though was the fact that this old wench would violate her orders!
“I’ve heard you are letting that girl treat the young lord and that you’re leaving them alone with no one to observe?” Squinting her eyes into a narrow slit, the old hag sneered derisively: “I don’t know if I should say you’re stupid, or just simpleminded? How could you just believe some stranger would suddenly waltz into the frame and cure an illness that even the lord of the Medicine Sect could not do? I bet she’s in there harming the patient right now!”
“Muzhen!” Jun Tian Yue snaps, enraged by the derogatory words coming her way: “I don’t want to argue with you right now so get out of my site!”
In light of that, the old hag did not leave. In fact, he’s dismissing the death glare and turned towards the husband: “Chief, do you really believe the girl’s appearance is some kind of coincidence?”
Unlike his wife who’s quickly losing all reasoning, Chief Wu Wei stayed cool in his demeanor that’s expected of a ruler. “What are you trying to imply? Spill it.”
“Then I’ll tell you the truth,” Muzhen’s lip curved into a faint smirk, “that girl’s appearance reminds me of a person.”
“Who?” Dubious in his face, the man coldly asks.
“The woman who seduced the young lord and then abandoned him, that woman.”
Clank!
Due to the bombshell of a news, the man had inexplicably knocked over the teacup next to him when jolting up. “You mean, she is my…..”
Granddaughter?
He wasn’t able to spell the last word out of his mouth because the poor man’s shaking too terribly to mince words.
“Don’t be too happy yet Chief, I’m only saying the girl might be that woman’s daughter. Also, I never said anything about it being the young lord’s child either. She might just be an imposter and here out to gain our favor.”
“That’s not possible, the girl’s eyes are way too similar to my son’s. She must be Yun Feng’s daughter. She must be my….” Endless joy swept the man off his feet, sending him fluttering all around like he’s floating on air.
If Bai Yan is really my granddaughter then the Misty Fairy House will have an heir!
“So what if she has similarities with the eye? This world is filled with children, having a few that looks similarly close is nothing to be surprised about nor does it prove anything! As far as I know, that woman from back then would sleep with any men she comes across. Even if this girl is the young lord’s daughter, what good would such an offspring be when it’s coming from such bad blood?”
