Chapter 542: Grandfather and Grandson Meet
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The exit was near a stream. Down the stream, they arrived at a small market town and bought a carriage and three horses.
Su Xiaoxiao, Su Cheng, and Su MO took the carriage that Bai Ze drove.
Jing Yi, Wei Liulang, and Xiao Shunyang rode forward.
Wei Liulang continued to lead the way.
Su Cheng lifted the curtain at the side and stuck his head out to take a look. He sat back in the car, closed the curtain, and asked in a low voice, “Daughter, why hasn’t my son-in-law caught up? Did something happen?” After all, that was the territory of the White Lotus Society.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, I don’t think so.”
They had already walked through the most dangerous place. She believed that Wei Ting would not enter a place filled with mechanisms. As for what would happen if the White Lotus Society disciples encountered him, as long as Wei Ting revealed his identity, no disciple would dare to make things difficult for him.
Unless the Sect Master came personally.
However, the Sect Master would not kill Wei Ting as soon as they met. After all, Wei Ting was his biological grandson.
Of course, if the Sect Master discovered that this grandson had always wanted to destroy his White Lotus Society, it would be hard to say. Xiao Shunyang and Jing Yi rode on the left side of the carriage.
Xiao Shunyang glanced into the carriage.
Jing Yi quietly squeezed between Xiao Shunyang and the carriage.
Xiao Shunyang said speechlessly, “I won’t eavesdrop!”
Jing Yi said, ‘Who knows?”
Xiao Shunyang was speechless.
The group entered the capital. Jing Yi bade farewell to Su Xiaoxiao and returned to another entrance of the peach forest to look for Xiao Zhonghua.
Xiao Shunyang also parted ways with them and headed for the palace.
Bai Ze drove the group to the entrance of the Imperial Astronomy Center.
When Sikong Yun saw Su Xiaoxiao bring back another patient, his eyelids twitched.
“Stupid girl, where do you think the Imperial Astronomy Center is? We can’t just take anyone in!”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her evebrows. “Childhood sweatheart..
Sikong Yun said, “Get in.”
Su Mo’s injuries were fine. He had inhaled too much miasma but had already taken the antidote. He should be fine when he woke up.
On the other hand, Wei Liulang and the black bear fought and the wound cracked again. Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to stitch him up again.
“Does it hurt more than last time?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“No, it doesn’t hurt,” Wei Liulang said stubbornly as he sweat profusely.
“You really can’t tear it anymore,” Su Xiaoxiao reminded. “Otherwise, not even a Zenith Heaven Immortal can save you.” Wei Liulang looked at his broken arm. “Anyway…”
He didn’t finish.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him. “Recover from your injuries first. We’ll talk about the rest later.”
What else? Could it be that he could regain an arm?
Wei Liulang smiled self-deprecatingly. “Got it.”
In fact, he did not have any hope.
Su Xiaoxiao did not straighten her neck and explain to him. After packing up the medical supplies, she went to Qin Canglan.
Su Cheng had already told him what had happened in the forest. “…Oh, I think they encountered a big poisonous creature. Unfortunately, I didn’t see it with my own eyes. I heard it from Daya in the carriage when I returned.”
Knowing that the peach forest was actually so dangerous, Qin Canglan regretted hurting himself at the wrong time.
“How’s Mo’er’s condition?” he asked.
“He’s fine.” Su Xiaoxiao walked in. “He’ll wake up in the afternoon at the latest.”
Qin Canglan heaved a sigh of relief and looked behind the two of them. He asked, “Where’s Wei Ting? Didn’t he come back with you?” He only saw Wei Liulang just now.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “He still has something to deal with.”
Qin Canglan knew Wei Ting’s identity and was silent for a moment without saying anything else.
Su MO woke up earlier than expected.
Su Xiaoxiao had just finished changing his dressing when she saw him looking at her unblinkingly.
She said softly, “Are you in such a hurry?”
Su MO looked at her with a hint of seriousness and stubbornness.
Su Xiaoxiao looked confused. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s Big Cousin,” Su MO said aggrievedly.
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a long time before she realized why he said that.
When she first found him, she referred to him as Su MO a few times.
Was that what he was referring to?
He was already unconscious at that time, but he actually heard her call him?
That was not the point.
As the eldest son of the Su family and the heir of the Marquis of Zhenbei, he almost died in the miasma forest. Was this the first thing he said? Su Xiaoxiao handed him two antidotes. “Do you want to take medicine?” Su MO did not move.
Su Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly. “Cousin, do you want to take medicine?” Su MO ate the medicine in satisfaction.
Su Xiaoxiao handed him a glass of warm water. “We didn’t meet Guo Huan in the forest last night. Did you kill him?”
Su MO sat on the bed and held the cup. He said seriously, “No, he fell into a trap. He asked me to pull him up. In exchange, he confessed a secret to me.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “What secret?”
Su MO said, “The death of Wei Ting’s father and brothers might be related to the Leng family.”
Su Xiaoxiao frowned. “Or?”
Su MO said, “Guo Huan isn’t completely sure either. Lord Wu An was cruelly killed by Northern Yan. Wei Ting’s father and brothers rushed over from another city to secretly snatch Lord Wu An’s body, but they were attacked at night.”
Su Xiaoxiao understood. “Someone leaked their whereabouts, and this person might be from the Leng family?”
Su MO nodded. “That’s what Guo Huan said.”
Su Xiaoxiao was deep in thought. “Wei Ting and I clearly heard from Division Leader Chen that Guo Huan killed the Sect Master’s relative. After that, I suspected that Guo Huan killed Wei Ting’s father and brothers.”
Su MO thought for a moment. “Maybe Guo Huan was lying to trick me into pulling him up.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Did you pull him up?”
Su MO said, “No, I told him that I had to verify it. If it’s proven to be true, I’ll go back and save him.”
The corners of Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched. He was really evil..
However, to deal with Guo Huan, one had to have no morals.
“There’s another thing.” Su MO’s expression turned solemn. “I saw the Sect
Master of the White Lotus Society. He’s also in that peach forest.”
Su Xiaoxiao paused. “MO Guiyuan is here too?”
Could it be that Wei Ting had gone back to look for him?
The endless mountain range stretched to the end of the sky.
Wei Ting stood under the sunlight, looking majestic.
After he finished speaking for a long time, there was no movement behind him.
He said calmly, “If you don’t show yourself, I’ll leave. The next time I come, I might not use this identity.”
Accompanied by a low laugh, a man in a navy blue cloak walked out with a powerful aura.
Although he had gray hair, his figure was as strong and tall as a young man.
He had a smile on his face as he looked at Wei Ting’s back in admiration. “Not bad, the Wei family taught you very well. Your mother must have already told you my identity, but you haven’t seen me before. You must be very unfamiliar with me.”
Hearing this demonic voice, killing intent flashed across Wei Ting’s eyes. MO Guiyuan smiled. “Why? Do you want to kill me?”
Wei Ting turned around and looked at his grandfather, who had never appeared in front of him. This person was so unfamiliar, yet so familiar.
What was familiar was his eyebrows. The brothers’ looks came from their mother, and their mother took after him.
The unfamiliarity was that he had never thought that he would be the Sect Master of the White Lotus Society, his lifelong enemy.
He had imagined countless scenes of meeting. Some were confrontational and some were civil…
But this was nothing like that.
“Can I kill you?” Wei Ting asked.
MO Guiyuan smiled faintly. “Of course not.. Do you really think that the few of you can successfully walk out of the peach forest without my tacit approval?”
