Chapter 161: Give Him a scornful Look first (1)Translator: Guy Gone Bad

On hearing that, Rong Yi immediately had the intuition that something bad was waiting for him. As expected, once he stepped into the hall, someone said with a disdainful tone, “So arrogant to keep me waiting here for four hours. I told the servants to look for you but they all said they don’t know where you went. Apparently no one puts me in the eyes at all.”

Rong Yi looked over to the man talking. It was a middle-aged man, comely face, cold eyebrows, a pair of tempting fox eyes flashing with kind of shrewdness. The slightly drooping mouth corner made him look mean. So this was the grandfather of the original owner?

He then walked before that man and said reverently, “My greetings, grandfather.”

Rong Lingshu snorted, “Do you still see me in your eyes?”

Rong Yi just ignored his anger in the eyes and sat on the chair next to him, “Grandfather, do your disciples know that you come here to see me?”

Rong Lingshu snorted, “As their master, do I need to tell them?”

“That’s the point. As the master of the mansion, do I need to tell my servants where I went? If they could find me, it only means they are spying on me. I should severely punish them. What do you say, grandfather?”

Rong Lingshu, “…”

Rong Yi continued, “Oh right, grandfather, do Nine Void Sect learn augury?”

Rong Lingshu had no idea why he asked this, but he still answered, “Only those who have special hobby on it would learn.”

“Oh, what a pity! Otherwise I could learn it and could foretell when you would come to my mansion, so I can come back home ahead of time or just wait at home to welcome you. Then you don’t have to wait for four hours for me. How about this? When you come next time, send someone to inform me ahead of time, so I can wait for you home.”

On hearing him, everyone in the hall nearly couldn’t control themselves from laughing.

Rong Lingshu narrowed his eyes. Since when does his grandson have such sharp mouth?

Rong Yi then blamed Wen Chuan, “Wen Chuan, how did you serve my grandfather? Didn’t you see my grandfather got inflamed? Why did you still serve him hot tea? Change a cup of ice tea now!”

“Yes!” Wen Chuan immediately replaced the hot tea with a cup of ice tea.

Who would entertain the guests with ice tea? Besides, that was his grandfather. Rong Lingshu got simmered with rage. But on the second thought of what he was doing here, it was not time for him to act as his grandfather. Besides, if he got angry because of such a junior, he wouldn’t be worthy to be his grandfather.

He suppressed his anger and tried to calm down after taking a mouthful of the ice tea, “It really tastes better than hot tea.”

Rong Yi picked his eyebrows, “What are you doing here, grandfather, if I may ask?”

Rong Lingshu then scanned those servants in the hall.

Rong Yi said lightly, “You all go out.”

“Yes.” Then everyone went out.

Rong Yi said to Rong Lingshu, “Now you can tell.”

Rong Lingshu stared at Rong Yi for a moment. Noticing the spiritual qi on him, Rong Lingshu was a bit surprised. Though he had long heard that Rong Yi was tested to own spiritual root, he was still shocked after seeing it with his own eyes. The grandson he had been taking as a useless waste could cultivate now. Besides, it was said he owns mutant Thunder-fire Spiritual Root, so his cultivation speed would be much faster than ordinary people. In the future he could also refine magic weapons and elixirs. Maybe he had the potential to be the extreme talent out of talents.

“Since when did they find you got your spiritual root?”

“About two months ago.”

Rong Lingshu’s question was simple, Rong Yi’s answer was even simpler.

Seeing this grandson was so cold to him, Rong Lingshu was quite clear that however much he did, he would never make up the gap between them, so there was no need to lower his position. But anyway he would like to try if he could use him, “The chief has sent someone to inform you to get enrolled. Why didn’t you go? Since you can already cultivate now, you can not miss such a great opportunity. Given your spiritual root, you can directly learn under the chief or other elders. With their guidance, you will learn a lot of things.”

Rong Yi said, “But I have to stay home to take care of my kids.”

His words made Rong Lingshu feel all steamed up, “As a man, you should put your cultivation in the first place. Only if you are strong enough can you protect your kids. If you can’t even protect your kids, you are really not worthy to be a father. Besides, you got so many servants in the mansion. What did you hire them for? Can’t they take care of the kids for you? Or is it possible they kids are more important than cultivation??

The former part of his speech indeed hit Rong Yi’s heart. The latter part made Rong Yi measure for a bit, “Of course I need cultivation. But I also don’t want to see they are already grown up after I come out from the closed cultivation and the way they look at me is like I am a total stranger.”

He had deep feelings on this point. When he was little, his father was extremely regretful that he missed his growing up. Fortunately it had been only a few years, so they could still bond. But if it was ten or even twenty years after the kids had grown up, it was nearly impossible to bond.
