Chapter 32: Who Are You?
Once Hong Xiaobao entered the entrance, he first saw Ye Jenning and his father Ye Feihong. He was not surprised at all. What was truly surprising was the presence of the protector of Saint Academy, Uncle Zuo.
“Dad!” Hong Xiaobao said as he walked forward. After that, he turned towards Ye Jenning, “Aiya, brother. Please be magnanimous enough and forgive me for not serving you well these two days while you’re here!”
Ye Feihong did not quite understand the situation while Ye Jinning panicked for a moment and said, “It’s okay.”
Hong Xiaobao soon pa.s.sed by Ye Feihong shoulder-to-shoulder to approach Zuo s.h.i.+xian, “Uncle Zuo, how’s your body condition? Are you feeling better now?”
“Hehe, I am certainly feeling good, you the Ninth Prince is so considerate! Thanks for taking care of me.” said Zuo s.h.i.+xian.
Looking at the situation where Hong Xiaobao greeted a 7-star martial artist Zuo s.h.i.+xian but not the 8-star Ye Feihong himself, he got mad and shouted, “You certainly are rude! We are discussing about a serious matter right now. Who are you to interrupt?”
Hong Xiaobao thought to himself.
“Who the h.e.l.l are you?” Hong Xiaobao said as he squinted facing Ye Feihong.
He looked roughly like this: (﹁_﹁)
(TL: I swear the emoji is in the raws.)
The people around felt embarra.s.sed since as an 8-star martial artist, Ye Feihong was looked down by a cripple.
n.o.body had ever dared to humiliate Ye Feihong, a proud member of the Six Great Orthodoxies, the Elder of Thunder Sound Pavilion, and an 8-star martial artist. Even emperors had to pay him respect. Ye Feihong became even more angry but did not whack Hong Xiaobao on the spot and only snorted out of contempt since he had to watch his behaviour in the palace.
“Xiaobao,” Hong Wenqing hurriedly introduced Ye Feihong to Hong Xiaobao, “this is the Elder of Thunder Sound Pavilion! You shall not be disrespectful.”
“Oh, so it is him!” Hong Xiaobao casually saluted Ye Feihong.
Seeing how Hong Xiaobao acted, Ye Feihong was p.i.s.sed and said, “Hmph! I heard the Ninth Prince of Hong’s family was inept. After meeting him in person, the rumor… is indeed true.”
Hong Xiaobao chuckled and said, “Even when I’m a cripple, some 2-star martial artist tried very hard to have me killed but failed severely — Brother Jinning, how are you feeling these two days, has your stomach fully recovered?”
