Chapter 320 - 320: We Met Lillie Bai Before (Part 1) (1/2)

”It's been many years since she's gone missing. Who could've expected Grandmaster Yang, of all people, found her.” Han Taiyi wondered.

”That's what bothers me!” Death incredulously declared. ”How could he, when even I, Soaring Dragon's god of martial arts, and my Junior Sister, second only to me, could not.”

Lillie choose to pay no attention to his backhanded compliment.

”I heard it was one of grandpa's direct disciples.”

”Pah! You mean one of those impudent brats, who are still wet behind the ears, beat us?! Me?!”

Lillie and Ethan mentally applauded Death's acting.

Yang Nina was nonplussed. Here she is, witnessing one of her benefactors blatantly disparaging her grandfather's direct disciples.

Just how deep is this animosity between her grandfather and Grandmaster Wei that even their respective direct disciples hate each other too?

”Who was it? Who? Who? Was it that c.o.c.kroach, Gong Hei?”

Ethan blinked. Gong Hei?

”Quell your anger, Senior Brother. It's rude to sully other people's names in the presence of guests.” Lillie indifferently sipped her tea.

So it's alright when there's no other people? Meh, sounds about right.

The atmosphere in the pavilion calmed down after Lillie's gentle chastising. Everyone continue to sit back, enjoy the cool breeze, the scenery, and especially the sumptuous treats Grandmaster Wei prepared for them.

What a kind soul he is, bless him.

Now Han Taiyi know which Grandmaster she'll choose if ever she has the privilege to pick one of them.

She'll have to work harder if she hope to catch the attention of the most difficult one to impress.

”Speaking of Lillie Bai, Ah Lizheng and I had actually met her before.” Han Taiyi suddenly mentioned. ”And the rumors about her being all bad and vicious seem to be false.”

Since their topic fell to that missing girl from years ago—Yu Mei, and the suspect of her disappearance, Lillie Bai—she couldn't help but divulge a little story to her new friends.

This is also a good material to continue the flow of their talk over a cup of tea.

”Really? When did you two met her?” Yang Nina's curiosity pique.

”We were on our first S-class mission two year prior.” Chu Lizheng answered.

”How did you knew it was her? I thought it was not until recently since she appeared in public.” Ethan inquired thoughtfully, speaking for the first time in their little get together.

His wife didn't mentioned ever meeting these two before. Ethan discreetly glance at her from his peripheral vision.

Was that a genuine look of interest on her face, or was it just her impeccably good acting? Guess he'll have to ask her later.

”Hehe, it was an interesting encounter, as if coming straight out of an action movie.” Han Taiyi lightly bragged.

”Action movie?” Death parroted.

Han Taiyi nodded excitedly. ”Our mission was to investigate a luxury bar for criminal activities. Our client was the owner of the bar and he worries there's something illegal going on under his nose.”

”Something like that did happen, didn't it?”

”It did, it did!” Han Taiyi squealed, clapping her hands. ”We found the den of those nasty gangsters while they were in the middle of drugs transaction. We burst in like kool aid man, then Ah Lizheng and I jumped around everywhere to dodge bullets and kick their fat asses.”
