Chapter 503 – Wish of Her Mother; An Evil Person (4)
“First Elder, I do not believe our people will send words without any evidence. So most likely they are true.” Replied Cheng Yutang respectfully.
“Hrm, that guy Cheng Biyuan is getting more and more arrogant. Did he think that we wouldn’t be able to touch him if he hired all these people? Naïve!”
A fierce look crossed First Elder’s eyes. “Your granddaughter, on the other hand, had broken through to martial emperor. That was surprising. I should find a change to meet up with this new martial emperor!”
Having said that, a peculiar look crossed his aged face and an eerie smile could also be seen on him. Beneath his eyes was an unusually blazing glow.
Cheng Yutang dared not respond back to him. He continued to keep his head bowed, waiting for his command.
At this moment, First Elder glanced over at him with a hint of a sarcastic smile on him. Yet the one with his head bowed failed to see that.
“Don’t worry. No matter how mighty that Cheng Biyuan is, I can still beat him down!”
Sinister look seeped out of First Elder’s profound eyes and he said, “If I remember it correctly, Cheng Yu was over at Qing’an Province helping that Cheng Biyuan build his Count’s court, right?”
“Yes, First Elder!”
“It looks like I need to pay him a visit shortly.” An ominous smile crossed First Elder’s face and he said, “It’s time to fully utilize a good pawn.”
“Thank you, First Elder!” said Cheng Yutang, cupping his hands at First Elder.
“Hrm–”
First Elder, seemingly enjoying this moment, looked like he had recalled something else. Squinting, he said, “Send the orders down and have our men find out whether the Cheng’s really have a martial monarch elder. Secondly, have them found out for sure whether it was true that two of their guests had broken through to martial monarch. I want confirmation on that!”
“Yes, First Elder!” Cheng Yutang nodded. He, too, wanted to know the authenticity of those news. After all, they simply sounded too unbelievable!
“When you hear something back, let me know right away.”
“Yes, First Elder!”
First Elder casted him a glance and, suddenly, his voice softened, “Yutang. You are not that told. Forget about your wife in the past. You should look for someone else.”
“First Elder, I did not think about that wench!” A look of insult cross Cheng Yutang’s face s he replied in a deep, low voice.
“You are so stubborn. I have told you so many times, that Fang Shuyun was no good woman. You should forget about her. You even caught her red-handed with another man. She’s not worth you always keeping her on your mind.”
“I did not. I did not have that wench on my mind!” Cheng Yutang’s face became twisted and a thick killer’s intent radiated from his eyes. “I wish the most horrible death for her, why would I have her on my mind?”
“Alright, alright. I just want to make sure you have someone by your side for the rest of your life was all.”
First Elder looked very “concerned”. He sighed again and said, “If Cheng Biyuan was your son, we would never had banished him no matter what. But your wife said so herself that he was not your son. Well, that was….”
“First Elder, no need to bring up that ‘bastard’. I regret now that I didn’t kill that ‘bastard.’ One of these days, I will kill that ‘bastard’ with my own hands and wash off the humiliation that was brought upon me with his blood!” said Cheng Yutang through gritted teeth, his eyes blood-shot by now.
First Elder frowned purposefully and looked at him tenderly as he said to him, “Alright. Why are you always like that whenever we talked about this? Yutang, listen to me, don’t let hatred blind you. Otherwise, how would you progress in your cultivation? Look at you. It has already been ten years, and you are still at novice martial emperor with no signs of breaking through at all. I think you have already gone down the wrong path.
“Aye, I’m afraid we will need to bring you back to the right path before you can break through. You should keep that in mind.”
