Chapter 226 - Nie Dingtian’s Differential Treatment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After a long time, no one knew what Old Master Nie said to those people.

All of them had ugly expressions on their faces. In the end, they stood up and left the Nie family mansion with slight anger.

Old Master Nie’s face was still smiling. He did not care about those elders’ faces at all.

Nie Dingtian looked at those elders who left with anger and muttered to himself, “interesting. He was actually able to make these few old fellows attack at the price of power. He does have some ability. However, I don’t know if that little fellow’s ability is real or fake.”

After which, Nie Dingtian slowly walked into the inner courtyard of the mansion with his hands behind his back.

He saw Nie Ling and his father Nie Longxiang talking about something in the inner courtyard.

When they saw Nie Dingtian slowly walking over…

Nie Ling’s footsteps were light. She came to Nie Dingtian’s arm and said in a coquettish manner.

“Grandpa, have those people left?”

Nie Dingtian looked at his obedient granddaughter who was hugging one of his arms. He stroked her head with a doting expression and said proudly, “of course. When your grandpa made a move, those people would naturally give me some face. Now, they have already left.”

“Really?”

Nie Ling’s face was filled with disbelief. Although her grandfather rarely showed his face in the family, other than the elders, none of the servants in the Nie family knew that there was such a person.

It was said that they were separated by generations. Nie Dingtian had pampered his granddaughter since she was young.

Today, Nie Ling found him and said that he might need to make an appearance. Without saying anything, he immediately came out of seclusion to confront those old monsters.

Although, because the secret realm was about to open, he had to come out as well.

However, this was enough to prove how much Nie Dingtian doted on Nie Ling.

At this time, Nie Longxiang walked forward. Nie Dingtian’s face instantly darkened, and the way he looked at Nie longxiang changed.

Originally, when he faced Nie Ling, he was kind, loving, and doting. When he faced Nie Longxiang, he really had a look of disappointment.

Nie Dingtian looked at Nie Longxiang and said with a dark expression.

“Longxiang, look at what you’ve been doing all these years. Just anyone can bully our Nie family. You’re not qualified to be the head of the family…”

After that, there was a lecture that made Nie Longxiang’s eyes twitch. However, he could not refute anything. After all, the person in front of him was his father.

At this moment, Nie Ling’s expression changed slightly. Then, she revealed a surprised expression and said to her father and grandfather.

“Grandfather, father, I’m going out for a while.” After saying this, she left the inner courtyard with happy footsteps.

After Nie Ling left, Nie Dingtian stopped lecturing Nie Longxiang. Then, he said in a somewhat serious tone.

“Longxiang, although I sent those old guys away, with their vengeful character, they will definitely continue to cause trouble for our Nie family. Go to the trading company and prepare for the impact that you might face.”

“Oh right, also, what’s your impression of that little guy called Su Yi?”

Nie Dingtian had never met Su Yi, but he had heard it from Nie Ling. As someone who had experienced it before, how could Nie Dingtian not know that his granddaughter probably already had a crush on that kid called Su Yi?

Moreover, according to the rumors in Central Plains, Su Yi’s talent and strength were extraordinary. However, the rumors were still rumors. He had never seen the real person in person, and he was still the person that his granddaughter yearned for.

His heart was itchy.

Nie Longxiang was a little stunned by the sudden change of topic from Old Master Nie, so he could only reply indifferently, “Su Yi. I’ve only met Su Yi once. At least from my first impression, he’s still a pretty good young man. Moreover, he has made great contributions to our Nie family. Now, he’s the only consecrator of our Nie family. Father, why are you asking about this?”

Unexpectedly, grandfather Nie rolled his eyes at him and said with slight anger.

“You don’t know why I’m asking about this? My precious granddaughter is about to be kidnapped, yet you still don’t know?!”

Nie Dingtian was so angry that he could not help but cry out. He really did not know how his son had found a wife back then. No, that was not right. It was his father who had hooked him up back then.

Thinking of this, Old Master Nie became even angrier, so he immediately waved his hand.

“Go, go, go. Go to your trading firm and prepare for what’s going to happen.”

After saying this, he slowly left the inner courtyard without looking back, leaving Nie Longxiang with a bitter smile on his face.

…

In Central Plains City, in a somewhat quiet alley, a handsome man with long hair was leaning against a wall. The scarf around his neck covered half of his face.

It was hard to see what the man looked like. At this moment, a fragrant wind blew, bringing up gusts of wind.

Nie Ling walked around many streets and stopped here.

She looked around and found that there was only a long-haired Su Yi. Wait, a long-haired Su Yi?

Even though Su Yi covered half of his face, his long hair was fluttering in the wind. His eyes were full of depth.

Su Yi had also noticed Nie Ling’s arrival. His pair of profound eyes looked at Nie ling, and that charming gaze caused Nie Ling’s heart to beat rapidly.

“Su, Su Yi?”

She was a little uncertain. It had only been a week since they last met. How did Su Yi become long-haired?

Moreover, the current Su Yi really had a kind of mysterious charm, causing her heart to beat wildly like a deer. A red glow floated onto her face.

He slowly walked in front of Nie Ling, and when he saw the strange expression on her face, he raised his eyebrows, thinking that something had happened to Nie Ling, so he hurriedly asked.

“Fellow Daoist Nie, what happened to you?”

Hearing this, Nie Ling did not dare to look at Su Yi anymore. She grabbed Su Yi’s hand, and then pulled him in the direction of the Nie family’s mansion.

On the way, the two of them talked about the recent events in Central Plains City as they walked.

When he heard that those elders had gone to the Nie family’s mansion, he could not help but frown and ask.

“Those people didn’t make things difficult for the Nie family, right?”

He felt a little guilty in his heart. It was clearly him who had caused the trouble, but he did not expect that the Nie family would have to come and clean up his mess.

Unexpectedly, Nie Ling smiled and said indifferently, “there’s definitely someone who would make things difficult for the Nie family, but who asked fellow Daoist Su to be our Nie family’s only consecrator? Your matter is our Nie family’s matter.”

She continued to hold Su Yi’s hand, feeling the warmth of his palm. A trace of gentleness flashed through her eyes, but it was quickly filled with determination.

Perhaps during this period of time in the Central Plains, she would spend the most time with him.

She knew that Su Yi’s cultivation had already reached a level that she could not fathom. Perhaps in the near future, he would leave the grand desolate region and head to a bigger stage.

She had to keep up.
