Chapter 478: Chapter 478: Fang Family Discipline
"Based on the descriptions from those Taoist priests at Qingcheng Temple, we can confirm that the murderers are Fang Bai and his disciple Ghost Hand. Additionally, an unidentified fat Taoist also took part. Grandfather, I didn’t send anyone to investigate Fang Bai and his disciple’s whereabouts this time!"
In a high-walled courtyard in Yanjing, the Dragon Maiden clad in a crimson thin jacket and white snow boots stood under an ancient pine tree. She waited until her grandfather, Long Jingtian, slowly finished a set of boxing movements before stepping forward and speaking.
"We can infer from this that the incident at Misty Rain Tower must have been done by the two disciples of Fang Bai as well! Grandfather, do you think these two guys have some kind of life-and-death grudge against Misty Rain Tower and Qingcheng Temple? Otherwise, why would they commit such insane acts? Grandfather, you should at least say something!"
Seeing that her grandfather remained calm and reclined in a sun chair to rest with his eyes closed after finishing his exercises, as if unconcerned about the matter, the Dragon Maiden grew anxious. She squatted beside her grandfather and continued with furrowed brows, "We can’t let them continue to kill like this; otherwise, the vitality of the Secular Ancient Martial World will be greatly damaged! Grandfather, please think of a solution!"
She paused, then added, "The commotion Fang Bai and his disciple caused at Qingcheng Temple wasn’t done in secrecy, so many martial artists in the Ancient Martial World already know about it. Just now, quite a few members of the ’Dragon Guard’ came to ask me why you, Grandfather, have yet to give the command to punish Fang Bai and his disciple. Some members are even dissatisfied, saying... saying..."
"Say what?"
Long Jingtian opened his mouth slowly and asked in a deep voice.
"They said that martial artists like Fang Bai and his disciple are the scum of the Ancient Martial World. Accepting them into the ’Dragon Guard’ is a desecration of it! Sigh, I don’t know how to explain it to them..."
The Dragon Maiden, with her brows tightly knitted, spoke with a worried face.
To this moment, the Dragon Maiden couldn’t understand why her grandfather, who always hated evil and upheld justice, would be so indulgent towards Fang Bai and his disciple, who had killed dozens of martial artists from the Ancient Martial World.
"Sigh..."
Long Jingtian was silent for a moment, then he suddenly let out a sigh and slowly sat up, murmuring, "Misty Rain Tower... Qingcheng Temple... It seems their next stop will be Shaolin..."
"Grandfather, what are you talking about? What Shaolin?"
The Dragon Maiden asked curiously. Suddenly, she had a realization, and with a shock, she exclaimed, "Could it be... could it be that Fang Bai and his disciple are planning to strike at Shaolin next? What exactly are they trying to do?"
"Pack up immediately and accompany me to Shaolin!"
With his white eyebrows raised, Long Jingtian stood up, his tall figure erect.
Though he typically seemed like an indolent old man, at that moment, he stood tall and imposing, as if a deity walking among mortals.
"Yes, Grandfather!"
Knowing her grandfather was going to take action himself, the Dragon Maiden’s pretty face flushed with excitement, and she turned to leave at once.
Since the founding of the "Dragon Guard," the number of times Long Jingtian personally took action could be counted on one hand.
In recent years, Long Jingtian had been even more reclusive, devoted to cultivation, and one could scarcely witness the elegance of this Heaven Level Martial Artist.
Even as his granddaughter, the Dragon Maiden, who had seen her grandfather only lazily practicing his boxing occasionally from childhood, never saw him truly compete with anyone. She was immensely curious about his true strength.
However, this time, the Dragon Maiden never expected that her grandfather would personally take action because of Fang Bai and his disciple.
The Dragon Maiden couldn’t quite fathom it; after all, Fang Bai was at most a Profound Level Martial Artist slightly stronger than herself. Even if he was a genius in both medical skills and martial arts, there was no reason for her grandfather to take him so seriously, was there?
"Hmm, maybe Grandpa has been in this high-walled courtyard for too long and wants to go out and see the great rivers and mountains of Huaxia, and by the way, try to stop Fang Bai and his disciple from stirring up more trouble in the Ancient Martial World? It must be so!"
Walking back to her residence, Dragon Maiden thought to herself.
...
The weather was getting colder, and the Chinese New Year was drawing nearer. After Fang Bai returned from the Qingcheng Temple with Ghost Hand and stayed at home in Zhongzhou for two days, buying some New Year goods, the master and disciple duo once again disappeared.
Yang Mei wanted to ask her son what he was up to, but all she got was that he was out on business. As for what that business was, her son was evasive and wouldn’t give a clear answer.
Yang Mei felt helpless, knowing that her son had grown up and become independent, no longer as easy to manage as when he was a child. She let him be, only reminding him and Ghost Hand to make sure they returned home before New Year’s Eve, otherwise they would face "family law."
As for the "Fang Family’s family law," it was of course designed for Fang Bai. When he was young, it was Fang Gang spanking him, and as he grew up, it turned into Yang Mei pulling his ears.
However, her son was obedient and sensible now, and the family had undergone earth-shaking changes because of him. Thinking about it, Yang Mei felt immensely proud and wouldn’t really bring herself to pull her son’s ears again.
"If anyone’s ears need pulling, it’s Fang Gang, that old coot! Now that he’s become a boss and has money, he acts all high and mighty. Just yesterday, while examining a beautiful female patient, he was flirting with her! It makes me so angry just thinking about it! Hmph, from now on, I’ll use that family law more often on him!"
This morning, after sending off her son and Ghost Hand from the Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic, Yang Mei turned back and walked into the warm, spring-like hall. Remembering yesterday’s incident, she couldn’t help but glare with killing intent at her husband Fang Gang, who was treating a patient.
When Fang Gang’s gaze met his wife’s, he shivered, thinking that he had only asked the female patient a few more questions out of his duty as a doctor yesterday, and now his wife had misunderstood him. It was such a great injustice!
But thinking back, that female patient really was beautiful, especially those electrifying eyes that made one’s heart itch...
Seeing his wife walking towards him, Fang Gang immediately cut the image from his mind, cast aside the distractions, and focused on diagnosing the patient sitting in front of him.
"My dear, with the New Year approaching, I just remembered something..."
After Fang Gang had finished treating that patient, Yang Mei leaned in close to him and spoke in a hushed voice.
Fang Gang asked with a smile, "You look so secretive... what is it?"
Yang Mei said, "I was thinking... since Chenyu doesn’t have any relatives left, why not invite her to celebrate the New Year at our home? It would be a good opportunity for our son to spend more time with her and increase their affection for each other! What do you think?"
"I think it’s a good idea!"
Fang Gang nodded in agreement and said, "A girl being all alone during the New Year is indeed quite pitiful... You have Chenyu’s phone number, right? Call her when you have time and ask if she would like to come over!"
"Alright, I’ll call her now!"
Yang Mei said, and went into a room on the side. She came out about ten minutes later with a beaming smile, and happily said to Fang Gang, "It’s settled! Chenyu not only agreed to come to our house for the New Year, but she also kindly asked if we had prepared all our New Year goods. If not, she offered to help buy them... That girl has such a sweet mouth, keeps calling me ’Auntie,’ it really warms my heart..."
Fang Gang laughed heartily and said, "I bet you’d be even happier if she called you ’Mom,’ wouldn’t you?"
