Chapter 1908 - Return to the Lan House (6) (2/2)

Others are coming to their senses by then. With sympathetic eyes toward the youth, they wanted to both snicker and laugh at the same time.

Thank goodness we didn’t speak up earlier, otherwise we will be in the same shoe as him. He would be lucky if he’s not hated by the Lan House….

The youth’s face was getting whiter and whiter after understanding the blunder he’s incurred. Not daring to stay any longer, he quickly climbs up from the ground and fled with the tail behind his legs.

“Guard Brother, when will Old Lord Lan be willing to meet guests?” Only after that fleeing figure disappear from view did a person ask.

“Oh, our housemaster is feeling unwell so we’re not meeting guests.”

Unwell? When did a cultivator become so frail? Who you kidding?

But no one dared to question the doorman’s word and continued: “That’s alright, we can keep waiting here until Old Lord Lan is well and willing to meet us. Don’t mind us Mr. Guard, we will be fine right here.”

These people are all famous individuals on these parts, respected and strong in their own rights. Yet in front of a lowly doorman, they had no choice but to keep a friendly attitude without looking weak.

As the old saying goes, once a person rises, all the cronies beneath them gets it too.

……

Lan House inner courtyard.

Di Ling Yan’s bright little eyes curiously scanned the place with shining stars flashing from within: “Mother, is this Great-Grandfather Lan’s home?”

“Yes,” Bai Yan warmly caresses her daughter’s hair, “This is where your Grandmother Lan Yue grew it from. I was adopted by her during my childhood and was greatly loved. Her side of the family too, they’re all wonderful people who wouldn’t yield to power and evil. During my darkest time, they are the ones who stood by my side so don’t forget this bond.” That said, a strong powerful emotion swirls out from within those eyes. Bai Yan couldn’t stop staring at the familiar grounds that gave her such good memories.
