Su Qian raised her eyebrows and said indifferently after getting a rough understanding of the situation, “The condition of the sub-branch Pavilion Master seems to be even worse than 1 imagined.”
Ji Wanwan and First Elder’s hearts instantly rose to their throats. The two of them looked at Su Qian nervously, “Does Miss Su have a solution?”
“Yes, but I’m afraid it may require some effort.” Seeing that Ji Wanwan was still nervous, Su Qian continued, “Don’t worry, I always keep my word.”
Ji Wanwan finally felt relieved. She looked at Su Qian gently and said, “We have a day-long journey ahead to reach the sub-branch pavilion where my uncle is located. Miss Su can relax and let me know if you need anything.”
“Alright.” Su Qian nodded in agreement and felt a little tired. She closed her eyes and drifted into a light slumber.
The carriage slowly traveled along the main road and headed towards Wanxiang City where the sub-branch pavilion was located.
A day later, inside the hall of the sub-branch of the Blood Demon Pavilion in Wanxiang City.
A teenager who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old wore a flashy golden robe and was sitting on a seat drinking tea with an impatient expression.
The maids who were in charge of serving him were all silent out of fear. Their eyes kept looking at the young man and the two powerful elders behind him. “What’s going on? Is this how your sub-branch pavilion treats me, the Young Master? How long have I been waiting for? Why hasn’t sub-branch Pavilion Master come to receive me?” Ji Tianrong’s greedy gaze swept across the maids. “Since your Master isn’t coming, why don’t you entertain me first?”
As soon as Ji Tianrong finished speaking, a beautiful woman walked in with an eight or nine years old child in her hand. “Apologies for keeping Second Young Master waiting. It’s our fault. However, my husband is not feeling well and can’t get up. If Eldest Young Master has anything to say, you can feel free to talk to me.”
“Greetings to Madam and Little Young Master.” The moment the maidservants saw the beautiful woman, it was as if they had seen a life-saving straw and hurriedly bowed to her.
Qi Yao’s wife, Lady Liuhua, saw that the maids were so frightened that their eyes were filled with tears. She couldn’t bear it.
Ji Tianrong was the child of Pavilion Master Ji’s second wife, so his relationship with their sub-branch pavilion was self-evident. Moreover, it was no secret that Ji Tianrong was promiscuous and lecherous. Lady Liuhua immediately gave the maids a look.
The maids felt relieved and hurriedly left, leaving Ji Tianrong displeased. “Lady Liuhua, what kind of attitude is this? 1 came here today to bring you good news.”
Lady Liuhua remained composed as she pulled her son to sit beside her. She then looked at the two powerful individuals standing next to Ji Tianrong, both at least fifth rank in strength. Her heart tightened as she asked, “Second Young Master, please tell me what the good news is.”
Ji Tianrong arrogantly curled his lips and said slowly, “Here’s the thing. My father has been concerned about the sub-branch Pavilion Master’s illness. He specially sent me to bring the sub-branch Pavilion Master to the headquarters for treatment. We’ll set off now.”
“No.” Lady Liuhua rejected without hesitation. “My husband is currently too weak to move. How can he bear the fatigue of traveling?”
Furthermore, Lady Liuhua knew that Ji Tianrong had ulterior motives. Once she handed him over, news of her husband’s death would undoubtedly arrive!
“That’s right, we don’t want you to take my father away!” The eight-year-old Qi Sheng also clenched his fists and said angrily.
“Madam, have you misunderstood something?” Ji Tianrong’s expression suddenly turned cold as he sneered, “I’m not here to negotiate with you.. Whether you’re willing or not, I’m taking this person away today!”
