Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-501

“That’s right. Little girl, I came to you for another matter.” Xiao Bai Xuan’s expression grew serious as he continued, “The old ancestor of our Xiao family wants to meet you.”

“Old ancestor of the Xiao family?” Mu Ru Yue raised her brows. “The Xiao family still has an old ancestor?”

“That’s correct.” Xiao Bai Xuan chuckled bitterly. “That old ancestor also has a connection to you.”

“What connection?”

“He is the grandfather of Xiao Yun.”

Mu Ru Yue widened her eyes in astonishment as she didn’t expect this. Since the old ancestor was Xiao Yun’s grandfather, how could her ancestor be chased out of the family?

“Little girl, I know what you are thinking.” Xiao Bai Xuan sighed and explained, “The old ancestor of the Xiao family has been in closed door training for over a century. Xiao Yun was only two years old when he entered closed door training. Since he was in closed door training for such a long period of time, many people thought he had died from failing to break through, probably by his heart bursting. Even so, nobody dared to enter the place where he was in closed door training without his permission. As a result, those people dared to treat Xiao Yun in such a fashion.

“But no one expected that the old ancestor had not died. He was just in closed door training for a very long time, over a century. The old ancestor has just come out today. He was at the Earth realm before he entered closed door training and I’m not sure how powerful he is now…”

Helplessness was expressed on Xiao Bai Xuan’s elderly face. If he hadn’t done so, perhaps the talented Xiao Yun wouldn’t have fallen.

“He had asked me of all the changes that occurred during the century before he came out from closed door training. I mentioned to him the death of Xiao Yun and also the appearances of Xiao Feng and you so he wants to meet you two. The both of you don’t need to worry. You two are the only blood-related family members he has left so he won’t hurt the both of you.”

Mu Ru Yue remained silent for a while before she nodded. “Alright, I will go and meet him with eldest brother in a bit.”

Xiao Bai Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.

He was really worried that Mu Ru Yue would still have some resentment toward the Xiao family. He didn’t expect her to agree, but it was still the best outcome…

All of the elders were trembling in fear within the main hall of the Xiao family. Nobody spoke a single word, especially those that had participated in driving Xiao Yun out of the Xiao family. They were even more terrified when they looked at the elder sitting at the highest position.

The elder was already two hundred years old, but he looked exceptionally healthy. He had a rosy face and a faint smile. But even though he had a gentle appearance, he gave off an intense and pressuring atmosphere.

Suddenly, two figures entered the crowd’s gaze as they traveled from the sunny outside to the dreary hall.

Of the two, one was an emotionless man in cold black robes and a frosty gaze. The other was a girl with a calm aura, but her eyes were also ice-cold.

The grandeur of the elder sitting at that highest position vanished once he saw those two people, his gaze softening.

“You are Feng Er and Yue Er? That brat Xiao Yun really has two such outstanding descendants. It is a pity that he wasn’t fortunate enough to see it.”

The old ancestor sighed, his gaze dimmed.

Mu Ru Yue raised her brows slightly as she queried, “Since you are the grandfather of great grandfather Xiao Yun, how should we call you? Great-great-great grandfather?”

The old ancestor chuckled. “That title is too troublesome. How about you just call me old ancestor? I heard that there have been a lot of things that happened during my closed door training during this slightly longer than a century period.”

His gaze swept across a few of the elders when he said that.

Those that had been looked upon lowered their heads, afraid to look him in the eye…

Xiao Bai Yun smiled at their expressions, happy that they were being tortured so. Who told those people to always be so arrogant and not place any importance on him…

“He is your stalker san.” [Miki: :P]
