Chapter 539 “Bai Chang Feng’s Birthday (4)”
“And…” Liu Yang then puts on the most pleasing smile one could make, “I will take my son to apologize to the girl and make compensations. Would that be fine?”
Due to how muddled Old Lord Lan’s brain was still at the moment, he had completely missed everything the man said and only nodded to the question like a machine.
Seeing this, Liu Yang finally issued out a relieving sigh. Glaring at the guards behind himself: “What are you bunch still standing there for? Hurry and drag this brat to the girl so he can apologize! This will be your lesson. If I hear another incident like this in the future then I will break your legs for good!”
And as if his words weren’t enough, the man swiftly raised another stomp at his son’s butt to send him flying out the door.
So close…
My Blood Moon Sect nearly got destroyed because of this useless son of mine!
Oh thank goodness that Lan Shaoyan isn’t injured, otherwise who knows what the Medicine Sect would’ve done to us.
As wronged as Liu Xu’s heart felt over this maltreatment from his old man, the injured boy didn’t dare to rebut. Rather, his gaze promptly shranked away when he met the one who injured him and scrammed out of the estate with his leg limping still.
Turning around again: “Senior Lan, I should leave as well. But be assured, if there is anyone who dares to cross your family in the future then you just need to say the word, my Blood Moon Sect will unconditionally come to your aid.”
Cross?
The elder from the Shadowless Sect couldn’t resist a smirk, Who in their right mind would want to cross this family from now on? Besides, if the Lan House really is facing trouble, why would they need you to help when there’s countless others more willing and more powerful to step in!
“Senior Lan, I will also take my leave then as well since I’ve brought the gift as per my Lord’s instruction. When the time comes, I will be sure to greet you at the Medicine Sect. Hahaha!” Once again making a jolly laugh like when he first entered, the elder from the Shadowless Sect soon left, leaving behind his gift just like the rest today.
Still muddled and dazed there, Old Lord Lan eventually issued a lamenting sigh: “Shaoling, Shaoyan, your aunt has done many wrong things in her life: she handed all of the Dan pills the family saved to that ungrateful bastard, then even in death she never returned to us for help…. However, she nevertheless did one correct thing in her life and that is to take Bai Yan in as her own.”
In the years where Lan Yue was still alive, Bai Yan was undeniably the most favored daughter of the Bai House where both father and mother showered the girl with love. But good times never last… As the old saying goes, a step-mother could never truly take in one that’s not her own.
“It’s too bad that bastard died too early,” said Lan Shaoyan with a sense of injustice. “If that bastard is still alive right now and learns of Bai Yan’s identity then he would be regretting it even more than he did!”
It was Bai Zheng Xiang who lost the young lady of the Medicine Sect, and it was he who also turned Bai Yan into his enemy! Imagine the man being still alive right now. Its almost certain he would be green with regret by this point.
“If I remember correctly, it should be Nangong Yi’s execution date in two days.” Old Lord Lan suddenly brings up the topic after some musing, “We can pass this information off to him.”
As stern and upright as this old grandpa may look on the outside, he’s in fact very bias when it came to his own family.
“I will do it,” Lan Shaoling pre-emptively offers to take the job after some contemplation. “Nangong Yi is already judged with treason, just that His Majesty wants to keep him imprisoned until a later date.”
Even if the main conspirator was Bai Ruo and not the former crown prince, Nangong Yi nevertheless still had a hand in it. There’s no way he could shirk off responsibility.
