Chapter 728 “The Furious Bai Chang Feng (5)”
If it was the chief then she could still survive out of consideration she ‘saved’ the young lord’s life back then, but if she provoked this old man then the fate awaiting her would be certain death, or worse….
Like Muzhen, Bai Yan was also too startled for words.
For one, the girl had planned to escape before her grandfather arrives after catching wind of his visit. But now, she’s caught red-handed and instantly lost a lot of her momentum compared to a few seconds ago.
“Why are you here?” Still fuming with smoke coming out of his head, Bai Chang Feng was more pained than anything else really.
So this brat is the alchemist mentioned by Chief Wu Wei? Is she trying to make me die from heart attack? How could she do something so rash like attempting something so dangerous? That’s a recipe which would cause an alchemic trial! A simple error means the destruction of her soul!
“Chief, so your cheap granddaughter offended the Medicine Sect. Haha, it looks like the Misty Fairy House is doomed at this rate.” Upon catching the enraged look in the old lord’s eye, Muzhen just couldn’t keep her trap shut and started to get cynical again.
Then before that filthy tongue could say anymore, Bai Chang Feng’s hand had moved. Sweeping a gust of energy forward, the roaring force creating by the gesture makes a direct impact to the woman’s chest and sends her flying backward until her existence eventually makes a loud cracking sound at the wall. Blood kept pouring out of her mouth this time like she’s suffered a serious injury inside.
“You shut up!” The old lord’s body was starting to exude a visible layer of killing intent, indicating how serious he was: “From now on my Medicine Sect is forever at odds with the Misty Fairy House! If there’s you then there’s no me! If there’s me then there’s no you!”
Everyone was completely left in the dark on why the old grandpa would say this from out of the blue. To them the old guy had clearly lost it in the head.
What’s going on? He was still good just now, why is he suddenly declaring war?
Seeing Bai Chang Feng angrily stomping over to Bai Yan’s location, everyone quickly came up with an idea.
It can’t be…. This girl offended the Medicine Sect?
Growing more nervous by the second, Jun Tian Yue (wife) transforms into a mother hen and hurried to block in front of her granddaughter’s body. Vigilant in those eyes: “Lord Bai, no matter what happened in the past, she is still just a young child. Why don’t you let it go for this one time? What’s more, our Misty Fairy House isn’t any weaker than the Medicine Sect, there’s no need to go this far for some small misunderstanding.”
Perhaps it’s the preconceived impression she had of the Misty Fairy House, but Bai Yan could honestly say she didn’t have any fond feelings for this place. Coupled this with the fact that its them who caused her parents to separate, it only made the fact worse. However, Jun Tian Yue’s protective act changed that and tore down some of that negativity she had.
“This is between me and Yan’er, you people from the Misty Fairy House stay out of it!”
In the old grandpa’s view, it’s all these people’s fault that his precious granddaughter needed to go through such risk. Then looking at the singed appearance around the hair and clothes – the girl literally looked like someone that’s been sent into a laundry machine but worse – it’s not hard for this biased old man to want some payback.
Then just when Jun Tian Yue was still befuddled by Bai Chang Feng’s form of address to her own granddaughter, the old man had already reached over from the side to wrangle the poor girl out from behind like an eagle holding a chickling.
“You’re getting real bold now aren’t you? You actually got the nerve to refine an eighth grade recipe! Why didn’t those thunder bolts beat you to death so you can learn your lesson? Is it because I’m doting you that you’re brave enough to do as you please regardless of the danger?”
Compared with the proud and temperamental Old Lord Lan, this grandfather of hers had always been on the gentle side. For him to lash out as well in this manner showed how much her behavior had hurt him inside.
“Grandfather, I was wrong…” Knowing she’s at fault, Bai Yan throws out an apology first and admits her mistake. However, she immediately followed it up with another sentence: “But if I had another chance, I would still do it again.”
Grandfather?
“……”
The crowds of gathering onlookers were dumbfounded.
This girl is Lord Bai’s long-lost granddaughter?
If this is the case, then Ning’er is Bai Chang Feng’s….
The patient on the bed shuddered at the realization as well, Bai Ning? Bai Chang Feng? Why didn’t I think of it before?
