Chapter 726 - The Furious Bai Chang Feng (3)
Chapter 726 “The Furious Bai Chang Feng (3)”
Yun Feng’s first reaction upon making contact with the old hag was a cold hard glare: “GET OUT!”
“……”
Muzhen was completely taken aback by the shout. Unlike right now, the man from many years ago had always showed respect for herself so this form of the young lord didn’t fit her image of him.
“For more than twenty years my mind may have been lost in a haze of confusion, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know anything!”
The old witch’s appearance was undoubtedly a stimulant to the already unstable Yun Feng. Therefore, despite his weakened state, the man manages to muster enough strength to shoot over a sword like glare to Muzhen. There’s an unabashed disgust in his eyes, that’s how much he disliked the woman.
“How many times have you slipped into my room while my parents aren’t paying attention? And how many times have you tried to do illicit things to me? My mind may not be at its clearest over the years but that doesn’t mean I would forget there’s a woman waiting for me out there!”
“Muzhen, I respected you as an elder but your behavior really makes me sick!”
The room had turned deathly quiet following each statement coming out of the patient’s mouth. And since his voice was loud and clear, even Bai Chang Feng who remained outside could hear the whole story.
“Wow, this Misty Fairy House is such a mess. I’m so glad it’s not my home, otherwise I would be disgraced to the point where I have to hide my own face. Once I meet that eighth grade alchemist I should go back before I get any more involved.” Sighing at the world’s depressing lack of moral integrity, Bai Chang Feng really didn’t want to stay at this filthy place.
……
inside the room.
Aside from Jun Tian Yue (wife) who had long become aware of the ulterior motives of this old witch, the other three respected elders who also came inside were left flabbergasted. Their mouths kept working like they wanted to say something but it’s too much for their brains to process. Aside from the murmuring mumbles, no words could be pronounced.
Chief Wu Wei on the other hand didn’t go down that route. Flaring into an explosive rage, he nearly completely loses it in his demeanor: “Muzhen!”
Despite jolting her body at the ear defeating roar, the shameless old hag actually had the nerve to retort with a ridiculing cackle of her own: “No matter how bad I am, I can’t be anymore worse than an ordinary girl. A woman without power or influence has no right to be at the young lord’s side. Besides…” Pausing in her voice to organize her defense: “Yun Feng is the one chosen by the goddess. Now that he’s recovered, its time he married the great being. A mere wench who only knows greed is not worthy of him!”
Though exposed to her filthy ways, the old woman did have a point in the eyes of the other people around. Aside from the Zhong brothers and the two parents present, none were willing to speak out in protest to that claim.
“Elder Muzhen is right, we can’t afford to offend the goddess.”
“That’s right, the goddess is not only a person from the Celestial Realm, she’s also the woman pursued by the Demon Lord and Celestial Lord. The fact that the young lord could be chosen by someone so great is his fortune.”
“We can’t miss this opportunity. If our Misty Fairy House can appease the goddess then it’s equivalent of forging a bridge between us and those in the upper realm. We must….”
Under normal circumstances, the patient himself would’ve went mad by now after hearing all those stimulating words. But now, his expression was extraordinarily calm to the point where it’s frightening.
“Years ago I lost my wife and daughter because of you people. Now I’m back, I will never be any of your puppets. If any of you bastards dare to get in my way then I would rather die before I allow any of you to get with your ways!”
Daughter?
The threat was definitely damning for those who heard it, but it’s the word ‘daughter’ that fully captured everyone’s attention. They’re filled with shock in the eyes.
The young lord has a daughter?
Turning to Bai Yan’s presence, Yun Feng’s gaze turned from a cold hard glare to a soft gentle look of a father facing their children. “Child, you’ve suffered during this time. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone bring harm towards you again.”
