ch 348 - The Event of the Statue; Saving Someone (5)
“Dad, where is Eleventh Elder now? I am guessing your intention is to save him and bring him back?” Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t going to let anyone had the opportunity to make fun of her. So she just raised the question directly and pretended nothing had happened.
Cheng Biyuan nodded and said, “The Emperor City Cheng’s don’t have much humanity left in them anymore. What wouldn’t they do for their own gains? Our men inadvertently found out that the Cheng’s had sent out a lot of men heading in the Mocheng direction but we didn’t know why. It was after further investigations by our men before we learned that they were all headed for Eleventh Elder.”
“We didn’t know about this before. Now that we are aware of it, naturally we can’t just sit by and do nothing about it. Why don’t you and Elder Ying take a trip to Mocheng Province and bring them here?”
“Mr. father-in-law, your son-in-law is willing to go with Xiao Xiao to save these people. How about we let Old Man Ying stay here, what do you say?”
Mo Xuanzun volunteered himself; he didn’t want to miss any opportunity to spend with the love of his life.
“Oh? You two going together?” Cheng Biyuan was a bit surprised. After all, Mo Xuanzun has very prestigious status; he hadn’t planned on having him take care of these kind of matters for them.
Mo Xuanzun, full of smile, nodded and said, “Yes, Mr. father-in-law, I will accompany Xiao Xiao. Old Man Ying can stay back and take care of the ranch and the mystical fields!”
“Guye, we have specific people for these tasks, I don’t think I’d need to do that!” Old Man Ying felt that he was being treated unjustly. He wasn’t the one who offered to accompany the Miss on the mission; yet the guye still chalk it up to him.
Mo Xuanzun squinted and looked at Old Man Ying with razor sharp eyes, “What? You can’t even watch out on the ranch and mystical fields even when you are at home?”
“Of course, guye, I will take good care of them!” With a chill down his spine, Old Man Ying made promises immediately.
“That’s better. Don’t let Xiao Xiao had to worry about anything at home!”
