Chapter 409: The Days Yet to Come
Hearing the name Xu Qiming, Luo Yunzhu couldn’t help but to whisper to Feng Tianlan, “Is that guy really his parents’ biological son? They gave him such a horrible name.”
Xu Qiming shot Luo Yunzhu a cold stare as she immediately straightened up and said, “My hearing is not very good.”
“Martial uncle, we are not lying. She really isn’t just an Advanced-stage Spiritual Master. She should at least be a Middle-stage Spiritual Grandmaster,” Zhao Haojiang explained anxiously. Why didn’t he believe him?
He was obviously telling the truth, and Feng Tianlan had admitted as much, so why did martial uncle not believe him?
“You should tell better lies if you plan to be dishonest. Even if Feng Tianlan were a Middle-stage Spiritual Grandmaster, it would still be impossible for her to take down a few dozen Spiritual Masters.” Xu Qiming looked at Zhao Haojiang seriously and said, “You guys fought amongst yourselves and got injured. You should go back and recuperate, or else, if this goes on, you will be crippled for life.”
“Martial uncle, I am telling the truth!” Zhao Haojiang was bursting with rage. “The others can prove it. She was really the one who hurt us.”
“Feng Tianlan?” Xu Qiming’s gaze fell on Feng Tianlan. He then sized her up once more and said to Zhao Haojiang, “It looks like you’d do anything just to please Pei’er. This ruse of self-injury was very well played.”
He’d heard the name ‘Feng Tianlan’ before. Once, she’d been a genius in the South Winds Nation. Then, she’d apparently feuded with Pei’er. Zhao Haojiang liked Pei’er, so it was natural that he would bully her rival to please her.
“Martial uncle.” Zhao Haojiang was so annoyed that he forgot the pain in his leg as well as how to respect his elders. He shouted, “I am telling the truth! She’s admitted it too, so why don’t you chase her out of the Flying Frost Pavilion?”
He was furious!
If any of his other martial uncles had been here, they would have been on his side no matter whether he was right or wrong and chased her out. However, he had no other choice since this was the martial uncle he’d run into.
