Chapter 411 Interrogation



Right after the elderly man finished his words, Yang Wei's mind was going around in circles.

'D-Daughter's cottage?' He thought to himself. 'Isn't that referring to my future mother-in-law then?'

Unable to decipher the truth, Yang Wei shook his head vigorously before staring deeply at the elderly man in front of him.

"What did you just say?" He then asked nervously. At the same time, he was praying that the man is not the father of his future mother-in-law.

After all, he had just insulted him thoroughly, pulling zero punches back in his words.

Alas, Yang Wei's worst nightmare came true as the elderly man began to introduce himself.

"Little brat, I'm Jing Tian, the ancestor of the Jing Clan." The elderly man, Jing Tian proclaimed himself. Simultaneously, he began to unleash his cultivation base, causing Yang Wei to bear the suffocating air and the heavy weight to collapse upon him.

Cough!

Yang Wei coughed continuously as he struggled to resist the gravitational pressure from Jing Tian. It would be nice if he could counterattack, but the strength in their gap was too much. Unless he could reveal some of his trump cards to retort, otherwise, there was no other way to fend off the pressure.

However, the problem was the prowess of the trump card could have the potential of harming Jing Tian. And if Jing Feng learned that he had harmed her grandfather and gotten angry, then there is truly no place for regret.

'Curses, how am I supposed to fight in this situation?' Yang Wei cursed inwardly, feeling like he was sandwiched between two sides that could not be offended.

Gritting his teeth, Yang Wei could only circulate the spiritual qi in his dantian to resist the gravitational force temporarily.

In the meantime, he slowly made a small opening of the door, telling the people inside that something big was happening outside.

Beads of sweat could be seen dripping down on Yang Wei's forehead as he didn't know how to stall for more time.

"Mother, Grandfather, allow me to introduce you all. This person here is my companion."

CRACK!

Before anyone could respond, a crackling sound that came from a hard clenching fist could be heard.

"Lass... are the words coming out of your mouth the truth?" A furious-looking Jing Tian asked as he gnashed his teeth. His glare alone could probably slice a thousand people.

However, his attempt at exerting dominance fell inexplicably short when Jing Yan smacked his head extremely hard.

"Who the hell do you think you are threatening, father?" Jing Yan yelled angrily.

"Not only did you fail to protect me properly, but now you're trying to scold my daughter? Have you eaten the liver of a magical beast?"

The normally gentle and kind Jing Yan versus her sudden outburst was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see. Not even when she was forced into living in an isolated cottage would she have shown such a fierce expression.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was grateful in his heart and gladly thanked heaven for having such a great mother-in-law.

Some time had passed by, and after getting repeatedly scolded by Jing Yan, Jing Tian was now like a timid cat, not daring to utter a single sound.

They are now inside the cottage, sitting at the round table at the center.

As for the elders that had accompanied Jing Tian, they had long disappeared from the scene.

They were only here because they thought someone was plotting against Jing Yan, but now that it was confirmed to be a false alarm. They would rather eat a worm than stay any longer, lest they might become collateral damage from Jing Yan's wrath.

"Anyway, Yang Wei, when did you meet my daughter? I know my daughter's temper very well, and she's not the type to be smitten." Jing Yan's eyes were sparkly as she looked Yang Wei up and down.

Although she had scolded Jing Tian, she was still dumbfounded to see the type of man that her daughter had chosen.
