Chapter 458 - Repaying the Debt With My Body (1)
The Lan family members who had yet to leave found an excuse to leave after hearing the conversation between the grandfather and grandson so as not to be implicated and become their punching bags!
“Hmph! I’m not a bastard grandson.” Lan Lie refused to admit it.
“Brat, if I say you are you, then you are!” Lan Tao said domineeringly.
“Old man, you’ve knocked out your bastard son, and your bastard granddaughter is in the hands of those fire phoenixes, so don’t acknowledge relatives wrongly!” Lan Lie said without giving him any face. Hehe, he really admired Leng Ruoxue now! Why were her beasts so powerful!
“Damn brat, what did you say?” Lan Tao roared with widened eyes.
“Haha, I’m going to see Little Icy!” Lan Lie immediately summoned his beast and quickly flew out of the Lan family estate. Hmph! He had escaped with much difficulty and didn’t have time to bicker with this old man!
Seeing Lan Lie flying away, Leng Wudi and Sun Teng also summoned their beast pets and left the Lan family estate under Lan Tao’s angry gaze.
At this moment, the first elder and the third elder were on the way to the inn where Leng Ruoxue and the others were staying.
“First Elder, what should we say to Leng Ruoxue when we get there?” the third elder couldn’t help asking. He really hadn’t expected that there were fire phoenixes with Leng Ruoxue.
“I don’t know either!” The first elder was a little troubled. Alas! The second elder offended those fire phoenixes, and they requested compensation, so it was probably impossible not to bleed money.
“Then why are we going?!” the third elder asked in puzzlement.
“To bond with her!” The first elder thought of a good reason. Everyone around Leng Ruoxue had dragons as their pet beast, and she had fire phoenixes. Alas! What powerful combat strength this was! Therefore, they had to take it seriously and reconsider Leng Ruoxue’s value!
At the residence of Leng Ruoxue and the others…
Feng Ling’er and the other beasts had returned to the inn.
“Little Sister Ruoxue!” Feng Ling’er casually threw Lan Ning’er onto the ground, transformed into a small bird, and landed on Leng Ruoxue’s shoulder.
“Big Sister Ling’er, you’ve worked hard,” Leng Ruoxue comforted. She knew that Feng Ling’er had suffered a lot when she went to the Lan family, so she was very displeased!
“Not at all. It’s just that the Lan family doesn’t know what’s good for them. They actually attacked us. However, that damn old man isn’t any better. I burned all his hair and beard!” Feng Ling’er said proudly.
“Haha, Lass, your pet beasts are really amazing. The Lan family is going to bleed a lot this time,” the old man, who had gone to the Lan family estate to watch the commotion, said excitedly as soon as he returned to the inn.
“Hehe, Lass, we’re going to make a fortune again,” Old Zao said happily. They had been in the inn just now, but they had rushed to the Lan family estate immediately after seeing the fire phoenixes transform into their true forms. They hadn’t expected to see such a spectacular scene!
“What’s the reaction of the Lan family?” Leng Ruoxue asked. She didn’t believe that the Lan family would obediently send money to her door. She had stayed in the inn just now and didn’t go to the Lan family to watch the commotion. But she knew what the beasts had done because of her contracts with them. The only thing she didn’t know was the reaction of the Lan family.
“Lan Tao has already agreed. He shouldn’t go back on his word,” Old Zao said after some thought.
“If I’m not mistaken, the first elder should be on the way here,” Leng Ruoxue said in understanding.
“Haha, Little Snowy, you’re right!” Lan Lie’s voice sounded in everyone’s ears.
“Why are you here?” Leng Ruoxue asked lightly with a slight frown. She hadn’t seen Lan Lie for a few days, and she had thought that he wouldn’t come again!
“Boohoo… Little Snowy, you despise me!” Lan Lie’s eyes welled up with tears as he pretended to be pitiful!
“Yes! Did you just know?” Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile.
“Boohoo… Little Snowy, I’m here to give you information. How can you do this to me!” Lan Lie said pitifully, looking extremely aggrieved.
“You’re from the Lan family. Are you so impatient to betray them?” Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly. The way this pair of Lan family grandfather and grandchild interacted was really different!
“Hehe, how do you know?” Lan Lie said shyly. His greatest wish in life was to see the old man suffer!
“I guessed,” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Hehe, Little Snowy, let me see Little Icy!” Lan Lie pleaded. This was his main purpose for coming here.
“Little Icy is sleeping on the bed! But don’t wake him up. He hasn’t been in a good mood these two days,” Leng Ruoxue reminded helplessly.
“Yes, I know. I’ll just watch from the side,” Lan Lie promised. Then he crept to the bed, sat down, and stared at Icy, who was sleeping soundly on the bed.
Seeing Lan Lie’s affectionate appearance, Leng Ruoxue thought, Uh! Lan Lie doesn’t really have any improper thoughts about Little Icy, does he? Hopefully not! Otherwise, Little Icy will bite him to death!
While Leng Ruoxue was letting her imagination run wild, the first elder and the third elder arrived. The two of them greeted everyone in the room and then turned their gazes to Leng Ruoxue.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the two old men who entered the room and asked bluntly, “May I know why First Elder and Third Elder are here?”
“Uh! Lass, a few fire phoenixes and silver wolves just went to our Lan family. They are your pet beasts, right?” The first elder glanced at Lan Ning’er, who had been casually thrown to the ground with only a rag covering her body, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
“Yes, Lan Ning’er came to find trouble with me and was taught a lesson by my beasts. I saw that they didn’t have the ability to return to the Lan family estate by themselves, so I got Big Sister Ling’er to visit you and planned to send them back to you. However, it seems like they had a conflict with someone from your Lan family,” Leng Ruoxue said coldly.
“Uh, this is all a misunderstanding,” the first elder said helplessly.
“I don’t know if it’s a misunderstanding. However, they originally wanted to do a good deed, but I didn’t expect such a thing to happen. My beasts are very sad. They even told me just now that their fragile hearts have been hurt!” Leng Ruoxue said with slight dissatisfaction, her face full of blame for the Lan family!
