Inside the palace, Dong Fang Bi abruptly appeared. Then, a series of scolding arose.
"Dong Fang Yu! You, you, you, how can you treat a master like this? Are you trying to anger me to death? "
"Don't you know he is an important guest invited by my grandfather! How dare you make a move against him? I, I, I, I am about to die from anger! "
"You are far too gutsy. You dare to make a move against this master. You are getting more and more out of control!"
A series of scolding arose. Dong Fang Bi's face was bright red from anger. His finger was shaking as he pointed at Dong Fang Yu. Even his body was shaking.
One, it was because he was angry. Two, it was because he was scared.
Not even in his dreams did he think that after he returned from taking care of business, he would see a scene like this. To him, Ling Xian was a knowledgeable grandmaster who could solve all of his questions about crafts.
Therefore, he thought highly of Ling Xian.
Or else Dong Fang Bi wouldn't have thrown away his pride and begged him to be a guest.
Yet before his eyes, his own granddaughter made a move against Ling Xian. Why wouldn't Dong Fang Bi be angry? Why wouldn't he be shocked?
He was angry because Dong Fang Yu was far too gutsy. She dared to make a move against an important guest he invited. He was scared because he was afraid that Ling Xian would hate her and leave.
Therefore, the moment he showed himself, he began to scold Dong Fang Yu without any mercy.
His goal was to calm Ling Xian's anger.
After hearing the series of scolding, Dong Fang Yu was stunned.
He was completely dumbfounded.
She widened her beautiful eyes and stared at the angry Dong Fang Bi. Her brain was blank and she couldn't understand why this situation was happening.
Was this scolding?
Her grandfather who has always loved her was scolding her for an outsider?
Dong Fang Yu's expression was sluggish. She couldn't understand why her grandfather would help an outsider. He was also scolding her for an outsider!
If it was anyone else, they wouldn't be able to figure it out. However, the truth had happened just like that.
When she saw what her grandfather was going to do next, she was even more stunned and furious.
Because after Dong Fang Bi scolded her, he ran to Ling Xian in a hurry. He had a flattering smile on his face, "Master, how are you? I'm really sorry, Xiao Yu is still young and doesn't know any better. Please don't lower yourself to her level. "
"Immature?"
Ling Xian revealed a sarcastic smile, "You saw what happened just now. If you didn't show up in time, I would've been beaten to death by her."
Just then, Dong Fang Bi shuddered and an apologetic smile appeared on his face.
"Master, don't worry. I will definitely teach her a lesson and give you an explanation."
"That would be for the best. I will wait for your explanation." Ling Xian's expression was calm.
But in Dong Fang Bi's eyes, this expression was the calm before the storm. He was terrified that this grandmaster would leave in a fit of anger.
In that case, he wouldn't be able to receive guidance.
Therefore, he put on a fawning smile and asked, "Grandmaster, is there something wrong? Are you in shock? "
"You came just in time. If you came any later, my face would've been ruined." Ling Xian glared at him and sat down on a chair. He crossed his legs.
His behavior made Dong Fang Yu's eyelid jump. But what made her even angrier was her grandfather's behavior.
Dong Fang Bi rolled up his sleeve and a cup of fragrant tea appeared in his hand. Then, he smiled and respectfully handed over the tea to Ling Xian.
The way he acted was similar to a servant. It didn't match his identity as an important figure at all.
It also formed a sharp contrast to the way he scolded Dong Fang Yu.
The other was a merciless reprimand that covered his face. One was concerned about his well-being, carefully trying to please him. The contrast was just too great.
Therefore, when Dong Fang Yu saw this, she was enraged.
"Grandpa, it's okay that you helped me, but how can you help an outsider?"
At that, Dong Fang Bi frowned and shouted, "Shut up! I am talking to a grandmaster. Who gave you the right to interrupt?"
Hearing this, Dong Fang Yu was infuriated.
Perhaps her anger had gotten the better of her. She didn't care and the long whip in her hand once again sliced across the sky and headed towards Ling Xian.
However, with a completion leveled cultivator like Dong Fang Bi here, why would he allow her to act so presumptuously?
HOMMMM!
An even more terrifying wave of Qi rolled out of his body and instantly crushed the long whip. It also made Dong Fang Yu's lips bleed.
"Dong Fang Yu, step to the side. If you dare to act presumptuously again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Dong Fang Bi's face darkened. He looked very scary, but the reality was that he was feeling heartache.
Dong Fang Yu was his only granddaughter. Ever since she was little, he has loved her so much and didn't even want to touch a finger of hers. Yet now, he made a move and made her bleed. Why wouldn't he feel heartache?
But there was nothing he could do. To calm down Ling Xian's anger, he had to endure the pain and rage at Dong Fang Yu.
"Grandpa, you hit me because of an outsider."
Dong Fang Yu was stunned again. Ever since she was little, she got everything she wanted. Dong Fang Bi has never said a single word of "no" to her and has always loved her.
Yet before her eyes, because of an outsider like Ling Xian, Dong Fang Bi first scolded her and then attacked her. Why wouldn't she fall into a state of shock?
As much as she was stunned, she finally realized the severity of this situation. Especially after seeing Dong Fang Bi's gloomy face, she suddenly realized something.
"Just who is this person? How can grandpa think so highly of him? He even attacked me because of him. "
Dong Fang Yu didn't understand. She didn't understand why a mere pupil from the Path of Crafts like Ling Xian would be valued so highly by her grandpa. Though she didn't understand, she knew that she cannot act presumptuously anymore. Or else Dong Fang Bi will not be nice to her!
Therefore, she silenced.
At this, Dong Fang Bi silently sighed in relief. As long as Dong Fang Yu doesn't act presumptuously, then things will be easier. Then, he turned around to look at Ling Xian. His dark old face revealed a bright smile that bloomed like a flower.
"Grandmaster, please have some tea."
Ling Xian softly smiled. Seeing that Dong Fang Yu was bleeding from her lips, the anger in his heart dissipated by half.
After all, with his mentality, there was no reason for him to argue with an unruly young lady. If Dong Fang Yu didn't want to let him go, he wouldn't have acted this way.
Therefore, he decided not to pursue Dong Fang Yu any further. He merely wanted an explanation.
"I won't be drinking tea."
Ling Xian looked at the elder before him and grinned, "Miss Dong Fang and I had some misunderstandings. She attacked me out of anger, which is understandable. However, I hope this misunderstanding ends here. I don't want her to continue to be so unforgiving. "
"Grandmaster, do not worry. I promise you that after this incident ends, I will never disrespect you again." Dong Fang Bi's expression was firm and his tone was powerful.
"You can't promise."
Ling Xian spoke softly and shifted his gaze towards Dong Fang Yu, who was suppressing her anger, "She has to promise."
Dong Fang Bi was startled at first but quickly understood. He called out, "Xiao Yu, come here."
Hearing this, Dong Fang Yu felt a hundred times unwilling, but she understood that she cannot go against her grandpa's wishes.
Therefore, she walked over in soft steps and arrived before Ling Xian.
However, what happened next caused her anger to surge and surge violently.
"Apologize to the grandmaster." Dong Fang Bi spoke slowly and placed the tea in Dong Fang Yu's hand.
He wants me to apologize to him?
Dong Fang Yu was enraged and once again, she was about to explode.
She was already suppressing her anger. Then, she was scolded by Dong Fang Bi, which made her even angrier. Now, Dong Fang Bi was telling her to apologize to Ling Xian. Why wouldn't she be angry?
She immediately rejected, "You want me to apologize to him? Dream on! "
"Xiao Yu!"
Dong Fang Bi frowned and stared down at Dong Fang Yu, "Hurry up and apologize. Or else I won't be nice to you."
Hearing this cold statement, Dong Fang Yu was once again stunned. She stared at the elder before her and couldn't understand how Ling Xian was capable of making her grandpa treat her like this.
Grandpa, I am your granddaughter!
Dong Fang Yu wanted to cry but no tears came out. Her heart was full of anger, humiliation, confusion, and other emotions. But in the end, all these emotions turned into helplessness.
She finally understood that if she doesn't apologize, then she will be even more embarrassed.
Although apologizing was a humiliation in itself, the current situation was already very clear. She had to swallow this anger, she had to apologize!
Therefore, she gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
She lowered her head and suppressed the humiliation she felt. She respectfully handed over the cup of tea with both hands to Ling Xian.
"I am sorry. I promise that this will be the end of this. I will not make things difficult for you. I hope you can accept my apology."
"Very good. If you said this earlier, then all of this wouldn't have happened."
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile. He then accepted the cup and sipped on it, accepting Dong Fang Yu's apology.
At this, Dong Fang Bi sighed in relief. The giant rock in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Dong Fang Yu sighed in relief as well. It was just that the more she looked at Ling Xian, the more disgusting she felt. However, she no longer planned on going against him.
For one, she had agreed to never cause him trouble again. For two, after what happened today, she finally understood.
Ling Xian was a very strange person. Even her grandpa thought so highly of him. What ability did she have to go against him?
Therefore, she admitted defeat.
"Teacher Dong Fang, there is actually no deep hatred between us. Since you have apologized, then let the past go with the wind."
Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips. Though his facial features were very ordinary, his warm smile, had a different kind of charm.
"Hmmph!"
Dong Fang Yu hissed. Though she no longer planned on going against Ling Xian, she never said she was going to be nice to him. Therefore, she flapped around her sleeve and left.
At this, Dong Fang Bi smiled apologetically, "I am sorry, Master. I have spoiled this child since she was young. Please forgive her for her rudeness."
"It's okay."
Ling Xian brandished his hand and stood up, "Elder Dong Fang, take me to a quiet place. I need to rest. After I rest, I will talk to you. "
"Of course, of course."
Dong Fang Bi was ecstatic. He didn't care about his pride and scolded his granddaughter. Wasn't it all for this statement? Now that Ling Xian had said it, of course he was overjoyed.
