The Medicine Manor.
In the courtyard, the old steward was holding a broom and was slowly sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground.
Lan Shao had just led his men into the Medicine Manor when he saw the grey-robed and filthy old steward. He could not help but furrow his brows in disgust as a cold light flashed in his eyes. He then spoke arrogantly, "The Lan family is here to pay a visit to the Master of the Medicine Manor. You'd better hurry and inform him of our arrival."
The old steward did not seem to notice Lan Shao's presence as he continued to sweep the leaves in the courtyard diligently. The sound of his sweeping echoed throughout the quiet courtyard.
"Our Master is talking to you. Did you hear him?"
The guards behind Lan Shao were enraged when they saw that the old man had the audacity to ignore their Master. They wanted to step forward and teach the old man a good lesson.
However, Lan Shao did not give them the chance. He raised his hand and stopped the Lan family guards. He then turned towards the old steward with an ugly look on his face, "Steward Zhang, please inform the Master of the Medicine Manor that the Master of the Lan family is here to pay a visit. If you delay my discussion with your Master, you will not be able to bear the consequences."
The old steward finally reacted but he only glanced at Lan Shao indifferently before he continued to sweep the leaves in front of him.
His actions had thoroughly enraged Lan Shao.
That was right!
Gu Ruoyun was indeed very powerful! She was also a Pill Master! However, this old man was only a steward who had been left behind by the Medicine Sect here yet he had the audacity to show me any displeasure! Lan Shao did not dare to offend Gu Ruoyun but he believed that she would not fall out with the Lan family because of this.
Lan Shao's eyes instantly sharpened at the thought of this and he sneered, "Steward Zhang, don't be so shameless! Don't forget whose territory this Main City belongs to and who do you think you are. I'll give you one more chance, inform the Master of the Medicine Manor that Lan Shao is here to pay a visit. Hurry up and go! "
He thought that he had given Steward Zhang a chance to turn over a new leaf and that the old man would not continue to act so pretentiously. However, he never expected the old steward to act as if he was deaf and did not even look at him.
"You..."
Lan Shao's face turned ashen with anger. Just as he was about to fly into a rage, a seductive and moving voice rang out from the front.
"Butler Zhang, who's causing trouble in the Medicine Manor?"
In the courtyard, a woman dressed in a bright red dress walked out. A charming smile hung on her face. However, the smile did not reach her eyes. Her alluring phoenix eyes were filled with an icy chill.
"Lady Wei." The old steward's elderly features filled with respect when he saw the woman who had emerged from the courtyard. "You've arrived?"
Wei Yiyi nodded before turning her gaze towards the Lan family. Her lips curled into a seductive smile as she said, "Were you the ones who were making a ruckus just now?"
Lan Shao gently furrowed his brows as he stared at the woman in red who had emerged from the courtyard. According to the rumours, the woman named Gu Ruoyun had a rather delicate and pretty appearance. However, the woman before him was dressed in red and was extremely gorgeous. Furthermore, Steward Zhang had addressed her as Miss Wei. It was obvious that she was not Gu Ruoyun.
"I am the Master of the Lan family, Lan Shao. I have come to pay a visit to Great Master Gu. Please inform him of my arrival, young lady."
As he was unsure of the woman in red's identity, Lan Shao's tone of voice was rather courteous.
"My apologies, there have been far too many people who have wanted to see my Master during this period of time. Every Tom, Dick, and Harry has tried to curry favor with my Master so don't even think about it. Old steward, see our guest out!" Wei Yiyi laughed icily.
