ch 254 - Fighting Among Themselves; The Gu's Are Coming (5)
After learning that this mysterious martial emperor would become the new deacon elder of the Cheng’s, Zhou Jinjiang felt ecstatic after the shock had subsided. His gleefulness was not any less than that of Cheng Biyuan, possibly even more!
Strength. Real, unadulterated strength!
Even if they only have one martial emperor on their payroll, this didn’t just raise the Cheng’s strength by one level, but a few levels!
From this point forward, as long as the unwelcomed visitor was not a martial emperor, the quantity no longer mattered. This, was the Cheng’s ability going forward.
The young Cheng Zheng Yuan recovered quickly as well. He didn’t expect the bad guy would turn into a part of his family, but he understood that this man would not want to hurt his family ever again from now on.
Thinking about his own impulsive behavior earlier, he felt slight embarrassed. He cupped his hands at Old Man Ying and said, “Pardon my rudeness, Elder Ying!”
“He He, young master is so polite.” Old Man Ying saw that Cheng Zheng Yuan was a direct and straight forward person who spoke his mind. He started growing fond of him immediately. He took another look at him and liked him even more. Smiling, he said, “Young master, if you ever have any questions, you can just come and ask me!”
It was no small feat to be able to receive guidance from a martial emperor. Cheng Zheng Yuan was immediately ecstatic. He nodded and said, “I will certainly take you up on it!”
After that, everybody sat around and chatted some more. Cheng Biyuan, who was extremely happy with the new addition of Old Man Ying into his family, decided to have a banquet to officially welcome him. All of a sudden, one could hear the bustling noises of plates, glasses, and happy chattering. Even though everybody’s initial impression of Old Man Ying wasn’t the best, but with some interaction, they were able to turn that around and accept the arrogant old man.
After all, Old Man Ying had been around for almost a hundred years. He was a walking wealth of knowledge that nobody there could remotely measure up to. Everything coming out of his mouth was enough to startle everyone and broaden their horizon. Everybody’s fondness toward him continued to rise and he was well accepted by everyone at the Cheng’s.
