Chapter 904 Yongchang, you are here...
Elder Bai looked at Bai Luoying who was becoming more and more excited. He let out a long sigh, his eyes revealing deep helplessness and fatigue.
Of course he knew that Bai Luoying's hatred for Su Chenyin had penetrated deep into her bones.
However, this is definitely not the time to act impulsively.
He took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice calm, and said to Bai Luoying: "Ying'er, do you think Grandpa doesn't want to avenge you?"
"But grandpa told you that Su Chenyin's cultivation is unfathomable. Even grandpa is not sure if he can beat her, not to mention that there is Jun Yijue beside her."
"Besides, she has the support of the Sect Master and the Young Master behind her. The Tianyan Sect is extremely powerful and has deep roots. If we act rashly, not only will we fail to kill her, but we will also put ourselves in an irreversible desperate situation. By then, I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to regret it."
Bai Luoying widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.
She couldn't accept what her grandfather said, and the anger in her heart grew stronger. "Are we just going to let it go like this? Let that hateful woman get away with it?"
Elder Bai felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw Bai Luoying's excitement. He quickly consoled her, "Of course not, Ying'er. How could Grandpa let you suffer such an injustice? It's just that we need to think long-term and not act rashly."
Elder Bai's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about an extremely complicated plan in his mind.
After a while, he slowly said, "I will discuss a foolproof plan with Old Madam Ximen, and I will definitely not let Su Chenyin go. I will make her pay a heavy price for hurting you."
When Bai Luoying heard her grandfather's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her originally angry look was instantly replaced by expectation.
She asked anxiously, "Really, Grandpa? Should I go find Old Madam Ximen now?"
"That's right, grandpa will take you to meet your relatives." Elder Bai nodded with a smile.
"That's great, where is she now? Why haven't we arrived yet?" Bai Luoying was so excited that she almost jumped up, and her steps became more hurried.
It was as if he had already seen himself wearing gorgeous clothes and ascending to a high position amid the envious gazes of everyone.
Elder Bai nodded, then his expression suddenly became stern, and he abruptly pulled his granddaughter behind a pillar.
At the corner ahead, two guards from the Ximen family were yawning as they walked by.
He breathed a sigh of relief only when the footsteps faded away. The clothes on his back were soaked with cold sweat.
The Ximen Hidden Family is heavily guarded and any carelessness will lead to eternal damnation.
"Ying'er, remember," he stared into his granddaughter's eyes seriously, "after you meet Old Madam Ximen, do everything I teach you, and don't act on your own."
Bai Luoying interrupted impatiently: "I know, I know, let's go!"
She couldn't wait to pull Elder Bai forward, her mind full of the wealth and glory that was about to come, so how could she listen to these warnings?
Elder Bai frowned, "Ying'er, don't be impatient."
"Since Old Madam Ximen has asked me out, she must have chosen a very secret place to avoid being noticed by others. Let's just be patient and wait. After all, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."
He lowered his voice to a very low level, as soft as the buzz of a mosquito or fly, for fear of being heard by others.
Su Chenyin saw this scene clearly through a vine clinging to the wall of the corridor.
"Madam Ximen? Recognize relatives?" She frowned slightly and pursed her red lips into a straight line.
These two key words kept colliding in her mind, sparking countless speculations.
What on earth are these two doing?
Seeing how cautious Elder Bai is, this secret might be more important than I thought.
What kind of conspiracy is hidden behind this?
Su Chenyin's curiosity was completely aroused, and her spiritual sense followed them quietly.
Jun Yijue noticed her strangeness and gently placed his slender fingers on the back of her hand: "What's wrong?"
Su Chenyin shared what he saw with him through his spiritual sense, and said in a deep voice: "Bai Luoying seems to be related to the Ximen family by blood. They are going to meet Old Madam Ximen now."
Jun Yijue's eyes turned cold, and the corners of his lips curled up dangerously: "Interesting."
While the two were talking, the Bai family's grandparents and grandchildren had already arrived in front of a deserted courtyard.
The courtyard was surrounded by weeds, and the walls were mottled and crumbling, exuding an air of decay.
The gate to the courtyard was closed and the copper lock on the door was rusty.
The night wind blew, and the leaves around made a rustling sound, like the whimpering of wronged souls.
Su Chenyin's spiritual consciousness followed them like a shadow, taking it all in.
She leaned on Jun Yijue's shoulder with a playful smile on her lips.
Elder Bai looked around cautiously, his eyes sharp as torches, observing every corner carefully.
After confirming that no one was following him, he raised his hand and gently knocked on the door.
After a moment, the door slowly opened with a dull sound.
A maid in a light blue silk dress appeared at the door.
She bowed slightly and made a gesture of invitation: "The old lady has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."
Elder Bai nodded and walked into the courtyard with Bai Luoying.
Su Chenyin's spiritual sense attached to the nearby grass and trees, and he followed in carefully.
The courtyard is not as dilapidated as the outside, but is full of flowers.
Various exotic flowers and plants compete with each other in beauty and emit bursts of charming fragrance.
However, Su Chenyin could feel that every brick and stone here was restricted from detection.
If she hadn't come in with her spiritual consciousness and her Hongmeng spiritual roots were not special, she would have been discovered long ago.
Elder Bai and Bai Luoying followed the maid and walked forward until they arrived at the west side of the courtyard.
On the west side of the courtyard, a small and exquisite pavilion is located in the center.
Inside the pavilion, Mrs. Ximen's eldest daughter, Chang Sunling, was sitting quietly, holding a cup of fragrant tea in her hand.
The faint aroma of tea rose up and lingered around her, adding a touch of elegance to her.
"Ling'er..." Elder Bai called softly, his voice filled with years of longing and guilt.
Chang Sun Ling heard the voice and slowly raised her head.
The moment her eyes met Elder Bai's, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.
It was a surprise, a feeling of emotion, and also a hint of worry.
Her heartbeat couldn't help but quicken, as if time had stopped at this moment.
The lover whom I haven't seen for many years is now standing in front of me. His figure is still upright, but the years have left some traces on his face.
The woman next to him was actually his daughter whom he had never met.
Chang Sun Ling's gaze fell on Bai Luoying, and an indescribable feeling surged in her heart.
"Yongchang, you're here..." There was a barely perceptible tremor in Old Madam Ximen's voice.
She stared at Elder Bai, her eyes filled with both the joy of reunion and the emotion of the passing of time.
