”I don't have anything else in mind. But if you really want to save them, they have to become a Glacier Palace member through and through. The way of saving them relates to a secret technique of the Glacier Palace. If that is not possible, you guys can look for a different solution,” said Han Chenfei seriously. She added, ”It's a pity that they seem to have made up their mind to stick with you.”
Her final sentence was making it clear that she would be worried that even after joining, the Han Clan sisters might not stay loyal.
Xiang Shaoyun sank into thought for a bit before saying, ”Your worry is understandable. Since that is the case, I will try to think of something else. Bye.”
He then stood up, preparing to leave. The price had been named. Too bad it was something he couldn't agree to. There was nothing he could do about that. But he had only taken two steps when Han Chenfei said, ”Why the hurry? I never said that I wasn't helping.”
Xiang Shaoyun stopped and turned. ”Palace Master Han, can you finish your words all at once?”
”What a surprise. You're actually such an impatient person,” teased Han Chenfei. ”Like I said, so long as they can become Glacier Palace members, I can save them. We don't have to talk about their loyalty for now. You only need to owe me a favor. When I need your help in the future, you can't reject it. Of course, I won't make you do something you are totally against.”
Without hesitation, Xiang Shaoyun agreed, ”Ok. I agree.”
This really wasn't an excessive request. He only needed to give her a promise. Of course, he wouldn't know when he would need to fulfill the promise.
”You're a straightforward person, Young Master Xiang. Go back and tell them to come, then. Remember to explain things to them clearly. I don't want them to keep thinking about you even after coming here,” reminded Han Chenfei.
Xiang Shaoyun nodded and left.
Looking at the departing Xiang Shaoyun, a look of regret covered Han Chenfei's eyes as she muttered, ”Since ancient times, many have tried creating miracles. But how many of them have actually succeeded?”
After leaving Han Chenfei's villa, Xiang Shaoyun did not return to his villa immediately. Instead, he headed to a different villa. His destination wasn't too far from Han Chenfei's villa. In fact, it stood facing his own villa. It was known as 1 Phoenix Villa, a residence representing a glory that was even higher than Han Chenfei's 2 Phoenix Villa.
Before Xiang Shaoyun could approach the villa, he was stopped. ”Who are you? Unrelated individuals are not allowed to approach!”
The speaker was an average-looking woman. She looked to be over 30 years old, so she was most definitely not a disciple of the academy. She was most likely an overseer. It was clear how much importance the academy attached to the owner of 1 Phoenix Villa since even an overseer was made to guard the villa.
Xiang Shaoyun cupped his hands in greeting and said, ”Please pa.s.s on the message that Xiang Shaoyun is requesting to meet the owner of 1 Phoenix Villa.”
Without any trace of politeness, the woman waved her hand and said, ”I don't care who you are, but you need to return to wherever you came from. n.o.body is allowed to enter without the young lady's summon.”
”You sure are putting on a lot of airs. I'm her man,” said Xiang Shaoyun as he rubbed his nose.
