Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Baili Zhan Gets DeflatedAfter such an incident, both Tang Wenrou and Fang Bai felt very disheartened, and they no longer had an appetite for food. "Was my kick a bit too harsh?" After leaving the hotel, Tang Wenrou’s expression was very solemn. Having walked more than a dozen steps away, she turned her head to ask Fang Bai. "Not harsh." Fang Bai said, "If it were me, I would have been even harsher." Tang Wenrou’s expression relaxed slightly, she sighed softly, and said, "With this incident happening, the good relationship that the Tang Family and the Shen Family had built over many years is probably going to be ruined in an instant. I don’t know how my parents will treat me..." "You did nothing wrong, the one at fault is Shen Huanian. Your parents will surely stand by your side." Fang Bai comforted her. Tang Wenrou nodded and said, "I’m a bit troubled right now, I should head back first. I need to discuss this matter with my family, to let them prepare for what’s coming..." Fang Bai said, "If there’s anything you need my help with, just tell me." "Mm." Watching Tang Wenrou’s graceful figure disappear around the corner of the street, Fang Bai too turned around and strode towards the courtyard house. When he was several hundred meters away from the courtyard house in the small village, a streak of white light shot towards him and landed steadily on Fang Bai’s shoulder. "Little Mink, what has got you so excited?" Fang Bai raised his hand to stroke the silky fur of the Lightning Mink, asking with a smile. The Lightning Mink hopped on Fang Bai’s shoulder, chirping "squeak squeak" for a while. "Ghost Hand got into a fight? And he lost miserably? You intervened at the end?" Fang Bai was slightly surprised, his brows furrowing. Ghost Hand’s current strength was already High Rank Yellow Level; anyone who could defeat him so badly had to be at least a Profound Level Martial Artist. Who could the person be? Why did they clash with Ghost Hand? Although Fang Bai could communicate with the Lightning Mink through the Beast Taming Scripture, there were still some barriers, and there were some things the Lightning Mink couldn’t explain clearly. "Let’s go and take a look!" Fang Bai’s figure flickered as he employed his movement technique, darting toward the direction of the courtyard house. The afternoon sun was harsh, and the roads of the village were empty of pedestrians. Worried about startling the ordinary folk, Fang Bai, at full speed, appeared in front of the gate of the rented courtyard house in a moment. Pushing open the door to enter, he saw a person lying on the ground of the courtyard, seemingly deprived of the ability to move, with a large cloth bag placed beside him. Ghost Hand stood by the person’s side, staring at him with a fierce gaze. "Uncle Baili?" After recognizing the face of the person lying on the ground, Fang Bai hurriedly went up to him and asked, "When did you come back? Why did you have a conflict with Ghost Hand?" "Master, you know this person?" Hearing Fang Bai call the person on the ground "Uncle," Ghost Hand instantly realized that it was a case of ’a family not recognizing its own’, and he immediately crouched down to unseal the man’s locked acupoints. The person lying on the ground was none other than Baili Zhan. Once his acupoints were unsealed, Baili Zhan leapt to his feet, glanced at Ghost Hand, then at the Lightning Mink on Fang Bai’s shoulder, exhibiting a face full of surprise and bewilderment. "I just got home." Baili Zhan patted the dust off his clothes and pointed at Ghost Hand, "Is this kid your disciple?" Then he pointed at the Lightning Mink, his expression carrying a hint of wariness, "What’s the story with this mink? It’s so powerful..." "Let me introduce you." Fang Bai saw that Baili Zhan wasn’t hurt, heaved a sigh of relief, and smilingly said to Ghost Hand, "Ghost Hand, this is our landlord, and also Mingyue’s father." Ghost Hand had been living in the courtyard for some time and had become good friends with Baili Mingyue. Hearing that Baili Zhan was Baili Mingyue’s father, he hurriedly bowed and apologized, "Uncle Baili, I was not aware of your status, and I have offended you earlier, please don’t take it to heart! If you’re angry, you might as well give me a beating!" Since Fang Bai addressed Baili Zhan as "Uncle," as his disciple, Ghost Hand had no choice but to call Baili Zhan Uncle as well. "Uncle Baili, this is my disciple Ghost Hand, whom I took under my wing not long ago." Sёarᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Baili Zhan sized up Ghost Hand and nodded, "So young, and already a High Rank Yellow Level Martial Artist...not bad, young man..." "This little mink is a Lightning Mink that has awakened its intelligence. I ran into it in the mountains while I was cultivating a while ago, and I brought it back with me." Fang Bai continued to introduce the Lightning Mink. The Lightning Mink gave a bow to Baili Zhan with its two front paws and let out a few "squeaks." Fang Bai laughed heartily, "Little Mink is apologizing to you for what happened earlier!" "I was also at fault for not asking clearly before taking action...the one who should apologize is me!" Baili Zhan’s gaze fell on the Lightning Mink and he sighed, "Fang Bai, you’ve taken such an outstanding disciple and even a more impressive Lightning Mink as a pet, you really are lucky!" Baili Zhan, Ghost Hand, and the Lightning Mink, having not fought, did not really know each other until now. They stood in the courtyard chatting for a while when Baili Mingyue came back from the outside carrying a few bags filled with meat and vegetables. "Dad, you’re back? Fang Bai, you’re back too?" Seeing Baili Zhan and Fang Bai standing in the yard, Baili Mingyue was both shocked and overjoyed. As Baili Mingyue approached, Baili Zhan touched her head and cheerfully asked, "Mingyue, have you been good while I was away?" "Of course, I’ve been good! If you don’t believe me, just ask Fang Bai and Ghost Hand." Baili Mingyue giggled, then looked at Fang Bai and Ghost Hand with pleading eyes. Fang Bai and Ghost Hand glanced at each other, then nodded with a smile, yet they thought to themselves, "Good? What good? This lass, lying without even blushing!" During this period, Baili Mingyue would get into trouble every now and then in her extra classes, mostly standing up for girls being bullied, often getting into conflicts with the boys as a result. And the outcomes of those conflicts, of course, were always Baili Mingyue’s victory and the boys’ bruised faces. In order to appease the anger of the parents of the boys who got beaten up by Baili Mingyue, Fang Bai had no choice but to make several trips to the extra classes in the capacity of Baili Mingyue’s "big brother," apologizing to others and even compensating them with medicine fees. Of course, Fang Bai and Ghost Hand would never reveal these incidents in front of Baili Zhan, otherwise Baili Mingyue would likely not escape some punishment. "Uncle Baili, your trip outside must have been quite fruitful, huh?" Fang Bai looked down at the large cloth bag beside Baili Zhan and twitched his nose, smelling the scent of many precious medicinal herbs. Hearing Fang Bai bring it up, Baili Zhan’s eyebrows danced with excitement as he said, "Indeed. I thought sneaking back into the Hidden Sect this time would be very risky, but I didn’t expect everything to go smoothly. I found the Man-Eating Flower, and I also gathered some of the medicinal herbs you wanted." He squatted down, opened the cloth bag, and took out the herbs one by one, laying them on the ground in the courtyard like treasures. The rich aroma of the herbs began to spread from each of them, filling the entire space of the courtyard. (Daily routine of asking for tickets!!!)
