Chapter 43 I Want to Challenge. (1/2)
Mo Xie sat together with Shang Ting on the two seats that the five elders personality purchased.
”Mommy!” Aiqing spoke, she then jumped at Shang Ting's lap.
”I like this place better!”
Shang Ting giggles as she brushed Aiqing's hair with her hand.
Hearing this, all of the five elders looked at the two in shock, before staring back at Mo Xie again.
'Patriarch and Matriarch have a daughter?' They thought that Aiqing is just a cousin of the two, but checking the age of Mo Xie and Shang Ting and also looking at the 9-year old girl, Aiqing, they shook their head.
In their head, it most likely is an adopted daughter, but seeing that Shang Ting and Aiqing resembled each other so much, they couldn't even make amends of what to think further.
”The five of you, which do you think would be the two most outstanding disciples amongst the two hundred participants, practically, the two that will definitely get the top 1 and 2 ranks?” Mo Xie asked.
Wuhan smiled as he looked at the other four that is standing beside him.
”Patriarch, about that, there is a problem. Amongst this batch of outer disciples, there are actually three very outstanding individuals with almost equal powers.”
Mo Xie's eyes slightly moved up as his mouth opened, like saying 'Ohhh~', this piqued his interest.
”Explain.”
Wuhan nodded and immediately responded; ”Patriarch, the first person is Huolin, a female that has comprehension ability, she is the first to learn and master the cultivation art that had passed to us, the very first to break through to silver rank amongst her peers.”
As Wuhan finished speaking, he pointed at the girl sitting on top of a rock in a lotus position.
Mo Xie nodded his head; ”The next one is?”
”Patriarch, the next one will be that boy, his name is Wentian, his comprehension with martial arts is truly outstanding, he's the 3rd to break through to silver rank! he can fight evenly with his seniors now.”
Mo Xie nodded: ”The last one would be?”
”That would be...” Wuhan started to look around, searching for that last person. Finding his search in vain, he looked at the other elders and asked.
”Where is she?”
The other elders seemed to had been searching too: ”That... where?”
The five of them looked at each other before searching for the girl again.
”Patriarch, we would like to go and look for the girl first.” Feeling a little embarrassed, Wuhan would like to search with the other elders first.
Mo Xie only chuckles as he waved his hand: ”Go on then, the tournament will start any moment now.”
”Thank you, Patriarch!” The five elders immediately left as soon as they replied, they need to look for that girl after all.

...
Somewhere, within the gardens of the Mo Family.
”Mhmm... Nya.. Nyaaa...”
A girl is playing with the flowers as she kept removing the dirt from its stem.
”Hmmm?” The girl looked around, seeing the lively servants chatting amongst themselves; 'I think I forgot something...'
The girl closed her eyes as she frowned while touching her temple; 'There is definitely something... something important...'
The girl started to walk back to the residence, she then saw two figures walking towards her.
”Oh! Hello Grand El-” But before she could finish her own words.
”LU!!! OOO!!!! YAAAAAANNNGG!!!!” Wuhan shouted at her as he approached fast.
”Eeeek! What did I do!?” The girl called Luoyang opened her eyes wide in shock.
”Grand Elder! I don't know what I did wrong! Please have mercy!” Luoyang begged as she started to run.
”HMMP! The patriarch is waiting for you! The tournament is about to start!” Wuhan exclaimed.
”Don't worry Luoyang, just go there.” Lingxin spoke.
”Thank you, Elder!” Luoyang immediately skipped back to the direction of the tournament, not wanting to face Wuhan's anger at all.
