Chapter 479 “She is the Disciple of the Holy Land (2)”
“Hmm,” rubbing her chin, Bai Yan looked like she’s contemplating something, “we can just say the Medicine Sect bullied us and kept us from attending. If your grandshifus want to make a ruckus for that then just let them come in person…”
Ye Ying immediately sneered with contempt after hearing that outrageous comment, Who would dare come make trouble at the Medicine Sect? How laughable. This woman is really too arrogant.
“Okay Mother, let’s go home then, I don’t want to give this old witch an opportunity to snatch me away.” Absolutely adorable in his voice, the little steambun looked nothing like the little devil that he was not long ago.
For the many people attending today, they naturally wouldn’t understand a word of that last sentence; however, for those who did see the ruckus prior to the event, they knew exactly what that meant.
Pity though, Ye Ying has already become the goddaughter of the young lord here. No matter how sympathetic they are of the mother and son, they had neither the influence nor power to stop the outcome.
Now, without anymore hindrance or care, Bai Yan slowly turned away with her son in hand. She looked nothing like someone facing defeat, rather that of a winner in how calm and proud her demeanor was. Then all of a sudden, her eyes narrowed as the contour of a handsome young man’s face came into sight.
“Yan Yan!” Filled with excitement in that voice, the youngster who owned the voice quickly made a dash for that enchanting red figure in an attempt to give her a hearty hug.
Unfortunately for this newcomer, the only response he got was a foot in front of his face and sending him flying as a result.
“Oh Yan Yan, you are still the same as before, always so cruel….” Landing on his ass, the youngster’s eye tears up over the horrible treatment.
Oh she is so cruel. Ever since I lost to her in that contest and became her subordinate, she’s never seen me again. Even worse, she just dumped a bunch of people in my hands and told me to train them. How can someone be so rude and not caring…. Oh wait, that’s not quite right, Yan Yan did come see me a couple of months ago and taught me a lesson in alchemy.
“Uncle Wen Ru, it’s been a long time.” Waving at the youngster, Bai Xiachen smiles kindly at the poor man.
“Eh? You are Xiachen?” Showing surprise in that voice, the man known as Wen Ru narrows his eye at the little fella: “I haven’t seen you for a few years and you’re already this big? And, you can recognize me as well?”
According to his memory, the little steambun was only three years old when they met, a baby still. In a blink of an eye, the little kid has grown up to be a preteen!
“Wen Ru, what are you doing here?” Raising a smile, Bai Yan shakes her head at this silly subordinate of hers.
“Oh, I was going to find you and give you the invitation letter. But when I went to the Flower Brothel and asked around, Hualuo told me you were gone, that’s why I rushed over to the Medicine Sect after hearing you were around.” Taking out the invitation letter from his pocket, Wen Ru readily hands over the item to Bai Yan, thus attracting the attention of everyone nearby.
“This… this is the invitation for the convention?” Sounding unsure, Elder Ceo Wang sharply swept his gaze over to the reddish figure, “Why do you have two invitation slips?”
Two invitation letter?
This is impossible!
The Medicine Sect would never make such a blunder and would most certainly not hand a single person two invites.
If so, there’s only one possibility then. The woman here, she did not bring an invitation letter with her in the first place and secretly snuck inside without authorization….
Giving a shrug at the senior’s questioning gaze, Bai Yan also found it surprising. How strange,the invite slip I have is from my shifus so who sent me this one then?
Suddenly, a certain name came jumping out at the bottom of her consciousness, Bai Zhanpeng!
