Jiang Yuebai dragged the bruised and battered Xie Jingshan through the corridors and pavilions. When they arrived at the entrance of the main building of Shanhai Tower, Luo Tingzong, the old servant of the Xie family who was in charge of all affairs, was waiting at the door.
Xie Jingshan tried to break free from Jiang Yuebai's grip all the way, begging her to let him go, and even offering a high price to get her to let go, but Jiang Yuebai just wouldn't let go.
At this time, Jiang Yuebai had seen all kinds of storms and waves, so how could she be tempted by Xie Jingshan's small amount of money
With only ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, who are you looking down on
If it's a better quality one, maybe... Pah! Business is more important.
In the end, Xie Jingshan was pushed in front of Luo Tingzong by Jiang Yuebai, and Luo Tingzong saw his young master from a distance.
"Mr. Luo..."
Facing Luo Tingzong's distressed and helpless eyes, Xie Jingshan lowered his head in shame.
Luo Tingzong said nothing. In fact, when Xie Jingshan was bullied by Fang Mingyi for the first time, Luo Tingzong reported it to his ancestor.
They have only one child in the Xie family. Even if he goes out alone in the extremely safe Kongfang City, there must be secret guards following him and protecting him secretly.
Therefore, only Xie Jingshan himself was stupid, thinking that he had concealed the secret perfectly.
After Luo Tingzong's report, Xie Tianbao was very disappointed with Xie Jingshan for being a "coward". In the end, he simply ordered to leave it alone and wait and see when Xie Jingshan could stand up or when he was willing to believe in him as his grandfather.
Xie Tianbao even said that if the future young master of the Xie family only had this much ability, he deserved to be beaten to death!
"well… "
Luo Tingzong sighed heavily, turned around and bowed to Jiang Yuebai, not looking down on her just because of her young age.
"Thank you for sending my young master back. May I know your name?"
Before Jiang Yuebai could speak, Li Jiuchuan came from a distance, walked to Jiang Yuebai's side, separating her from Xie Jingshan, and smiled gently and politely.
"I am Li Jiuchuan of the Tianyan Sect, and this is my...my disciple Jiang Yuebai, nice to meet Master Luo."
Before Li Jiuchuan got into trouble, he was well-known in the spiritual world. Luo Tingzong naturally recognized him, and the two of them exchanged a few polite words.
Li Jiuchuan explained his purpose and presented the visiting card he had prepared in advance. Luo Tingzong immediately arranged for someone to take them to the Xie mansion.
However, Xie Tianbao did not meet Li Jiuchuan immediately. After all, Xie Tianbao was half a step away from becoming a god and the number one weapon refiner in the Earth Spirit Realm, so he still had some airs.
And the most important thing for Xie Tianbao at the moment is to deal with Xie Jingshan's affairs.
Li Jiuchuan and Jiang Yuebai were arranged to stay in the best wing of the Xie family mansion. As soon as they entered the door, Li Jiuchuan sat down with a serious face, called Jiang Yuebai to his front, and asked Jiang Yuebai to explain what her relationship with Xie Jingshan was in her previous life.
Jiang Yuebai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He poured a cup of tea for his "old father" and asked him to drink it slowly and listen slowly.
*
Deep inside the Xie family mansion, Xie Jingshan, who was in a dishevel, was brought in front of Xie Tianbao. Xie Tianbao felt both distressed and angry when he saw his bruised and swollen face.
Xie Tianbao suppressed his anger, and sat on the stone bench in the yard. He looked at Xie Jingshan and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
A word of concern instantly shattered Xie Jingshan's long-standing forbearance, causing all his grievances to burst out.
Xie Jingshan burst into tears, "Grandfather, help me..."
Xie Jingshan cried loudly, venting his feelings to his heart's content, while Luo Tingzong was also wiping away tears beside him.
Xie Tianbao pulled Xie Jingshan in front of him, wiped Xie Jingshan's tears with red eyes, "What's the point of crying like a real man? What's the point of crying like that? Go get your wound healed, change into clean clothes, eat something good and have a good sleep."
"Although Grandfather cannot wipe out the entire Fang family, nor can he kill that bastard Fang Mingyi, but within three days, Grandfather will have Fang Mingyi's father bring Fang Mingyi to your house to apologize in person."
Xie Jingshan nodded while sobbing, and was taken away by the servant to heal his wounds.
As soon as Xie Jingshan left, Xie Tianbao solemnly ordered Luo Tingzong, "Go and inform Fang to pay off the money owed to Shanhailou within three days, and the interest will not be reduced at all, no negotiation."
Luo Tingzong was very excited, "Don't worry, ancestor, I have already prepared the account books and have been waiting for this day!"
"I'll make an appointment to meet with the head of the Kong family in the afternoon."
"good!"
Later, because he was insulted and bullied by Fang Mingyi, he was unwilling to rely on his family and insisted on making a name for himself, wasting a lot of precious time for a cultivator.
Three days later.
When Fang Mingyi's father brought Fang Mingyi to the main hall of the Xie family, Xie Jingshan could hardly believe his eyes.
In his heart, he almost agreed with what Fang Mingyi said, that the Xie family had no background and could not be considered a family of immortal cultivators. They were just peddlers who were rich, and were far inferior to those from the family of immortal cultivators.
And now, these "low-status" people have made the high-ranking immortal cultivation family come to apologize, and Xie Jingshan's young heart was deeply shocked.
Although Fang Mingyi's father was born into a direct lineage, he was not from the head of the family and had an average status in the Fang family, otherwise his son would not have been "sacrificed" and chosen as the person to carry on the family line.
In the main hall, as soon as Fang Mingyi's father saw Luo Tingzong bringing Xie Jingshan, he immediately shouted coldly at Fang Mingyi.
"Why don't you apologize to Young Master Xie immediately!"
Fang Mingyi's face looked grim, his eyes even red, as if he had suffered a great injustice but had to give in.
Fang suddenly received a notice from Shanhailou that day. No matter how she tried to persuade them, Shanhailou refused to respond. In the end, she had to spend money to find out the reason from the waiters of Shanhailou.
The Fang family was in an uproar. Fang Mingyi's father's branch was scolded and punished by the head of the family because of Fang Mingyi. Fang Mingyi was even punished by the family law and knelt in front of the ancestral hall for three days.
This morning, he was brought here to apologize. Fang Mingyi knelt down as soon as he moved.
Fang Mingyi's father was stunned for a moment. He didn't want Fang Mingyi to kneel. After all, the Fang family also had to maintain some face.
But Fang Mingyi had already knelt, so he couldn't pull him up. He could only shout angrily, "Why don't you apologize!"
Fang Mingyi gritted his teeth and struggled for a moment. Finally, intimidated by the family rules, he lowered his head and shouted to Xie Jingshan, "I'm sorry!"
Fang Mingyi's father smiled and said, "Master Tianbao, you see, this is just the child's ignorance. We have punished him and apologized. There is no need for our two families to fall out because of the younger generation."
Xie Jingshan looked at Xie Tianbao, who was sipping tea calmly. At this moment, Xie Jingshan suddenly felt that his grandfather and their Xie family were more powerful than he had imagined.
He finally realized how stupid he was to have believed Fang Mingyi's words before.
It's so shameful that such a mighty and domineering grandfather has a grandson who was pinned to the ground and beaten outside!
When the tea was almost dried, Xie Tianbao put down the teacup. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Xie Jingshan, who clenched his fists and looked guilty, and asked Luo Tingzong to take him away.
It is enough to let Xie Jingshan see that his grandfather can support him. It is better not to let him see the subsequent helpless compromises and stop while he is ahead.
In the Xie family garden.
Jiang Yuebai finally calmed down his master, and as soon as he went out, he saw Xie Jingshan standing in the garden without saying a word.
Jiang Yuebai already knew that Fang Mingyi had come to apologize. When he saw Xie Jingshan's regretful look, he knew what he was thinking.
"Do you feel that you were beaten in vain before?" Jiang Yuebai walked over and asked.
Hearing the voice, Xie Jingshan quickly turned his head and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Why don't you leave?" Xie Jingshan asked.
Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "My master wants to find your grandfather to refine weapons. I may have to stay at your house for a while."
"oh."
Jiang Yuebai looked at Xie Jingshan picking the moss on the rockery with a wronged look on his face. His eyes rolled around and he suddenly moved closer to Xie Jingshan.
"Hey, do you have sacks at home?"
Thanks to [Mia0_0] for the reward. Qingxie thanks you very much. I am very grateful. I will arrange more updates!
