Chapter 472: Bing Yan: So Be It, Let Me Sever the Last Trace of Sentiment for Extreme Cold Manor
Silence, upon hearing Chu Feng's words, the people of Extreme Cold Manor instantly fell quiet.
Everyone turned their hopeful gazes toward Bing Yan.
Although they were far away in the northwestern part of Xuan Continent, they had heard many stories about the Great Sage of Qiankun. In their impression, the Great Sage of Qiankun was a domineering, arrogant, and invincible existence.
Whenever he took action, he never failed. Even if a saint came, they would be beaten up by him.
Yet such a terrifying being was at this moment actually concerned about Bing Yan's feelings.
Shouldn't a powerful person like you have the final say at home?
Bing Yan looked at the elder before her and said faintly: "Ninth Grand-Uncle, I'll trouble you to lead the way, but I don't want anyone to know that my husband has come in person."
The elder said respectfully: "Naturally. If those major powers knew that the Great Sage of Qiankun had come personally, they probably wouldn't dare to send anyone to participate in this sixty-year battle. This old man will now take you to the Wind and Flower Courtyard to rest."
"Mm."
Bing Yan responded faintly.
Bing Father's face was somewhat unsightly at this moment, but he dared not show his displeasure.
He walked among the crowd, looking at Bing Yan's cold yet imposing figure, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
The little girl who once showed off her cultivation progress before him had grown up, and become an existence he could not hope to reach.
Bing Father was filled with immense regret, but he didn't know how to begin unraveling the knot between them as father and daughter.
The group proceeded forward, and soon arrived outside a small courtyard filled with fragrance. Before they could even enter, they heard the sound of an argument coming from within.
"Bing Xiaofeng, how many times have I told you, I will absolutely not move out of this courtyard. If you insist on making me move, then we will divorce!"
"Rou'er, listen to me, this time my elder sister has returned to participate in the sixty-year battle for our Extreme Cold Manor. She will only stay for less than a month before leaving. Please bear with it for a little while."
"Hmph! A married daughter is like spilled water. What kind of host makes way for a guest? I have given birth to an Imperial Body genius for your Bing family. I will absolutely not move!"
"..."
Listening to the conversation inside, Bing Yan immediately stopped in her tracks. She didn't speak, but instead cast her gaze toward her Ninth Grand-Uncle.
Bing Tiexin felt Bing Yan's gaze and couldn't help but shudder all over.
"Yan'er, this old one truly didn't know about this matter. Previously, your father had assured us that he would definitely vacate this Wind and Flower Courtyard."
As these words fell, everyone present turned their gaze toward Bing Aogu.
His face alternated between green and purple, quite a spectacle. Without guessing, Chu Feng knew that this cheap father-in-law of his was currently experiencing a full-blown drama in his heart.
Just as the atmosphere became somewhat awkward, Bing Yan spoke: "So be it. Since the Wind and Flower Courtyard already has an owner, I'll take this opportunity to sever the last trace of sentiment in my heart. Take us to the guest courtyard."
As soon as she finished speaking, the faces of all the important figures of the Bing family showed regret. They all looked at Bing Aogu with eyes that wanted to kill someone.
Each of them wished they could give Bing Aogu a good beating. Look at the fine mess you've made, you little bastard.
Now the Bing family only has one Great Sage to preside over it. Originally, they could have used this opportunity to improve their relationship with Bing Yan.
But you had to go and pull this stunt. Do you not want to be the family head anymore?
Bing Aogu's regret deepened even further. If he had known, he would have spoken personally instead of letting his useless son handle this matter.
"Very well."
At this point, Bing Tiexin could only choose to accept it, leading the group toward the guest courtyard.
A moment later.
Chu Feng and his group settled down. Bing Tiexin said respectfully: "Yan'er, if you have any requests, feel free to ask, and this old one will fulfill them."
"There's no need. Just don't disturb me."
There was a hint of coldness in Bing Yan's tone.
"Understood."
As Bing Tiexin spoke, he departed along with the other high-ranking members of the Bing family.
Seeing Bing Yan standing there in a daze, Chu Feng stepped forward and embraced her: "Yan'er, are you alright?"
"I'm fine."
Bing Yan said faintly: "I originally wanted to show you the place where I cultivated as a child, but I never thought the Bing family wouldn't even want this last bit of dignity."
Chu Feng said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then let Extreme Cold Manor have a taste of what it feels like to have regrets they can never undo."
"Mm."
Bing Yan responded softly.
At the same time.
Extreme Cold Manor was already in chaos.
After Bing Aogu received anger from Bing Yan and the group of elders, he immediately came to the Wind and Flower Courtyard.
As soon as he entered, he put on a stern face and scolded harshly: "What's all this noise? You're all hundreds of years old, yet still acting like children!"
"Father."
The two who were arguing immediately fell silent upon seeing Bing Aogu arrive.
Bing Aogu said coldly: "Mu Rou, this old one originally thought you were a person of propriety, why would you cause such a big joke today? Do you realize that all the elders of Extreme Cold Manor just heard your argument?"
Facing her father-in-law, Mu Rou was still fearful deep down.
She bit her lip tightly and said: "I just feel it's unfair. Why can a married daughter take my things? You once said that the entire Extreme Cold Manor belongs to me and Xiaofeng."
"Hmph!"
Bing Aogu snorted coldly: "Since you know that Extreme Cold Manor will be yours and Xiaofeng's in the future, why do you still want to put Extreme Cold Manor at a disadvantage now?"
Mu Rou gritted her teeth and said: "Father, can't our Extreme Cold Manor overcome this crisis without Bing Yan? I can also ask the Great Sage of the Snow Woman Palace to help."
Bing Aogu's face grew even uglier upon hearing this: "What do you know? If we ask the Great Sage of the Snow Woman Palace for help, how much will we have to pay? To have Bing Yan take action, it only costs one ice feather. Moreover, if we improve our relationship with her, your child can become a disciple of the Great Sage of Qiankun in the future."
At these words, Mu Rou's expression changed drastically: "How is that possible? I've heard that the Great Sage of Qiankun is extremely strict in accepting disciples. Even if the Miscellaneous Dao Academy relaxed its recruitment conditions, only that genius from Northern Yuan was accepted as his disciple.
Although Lin'er has awakened the Imperial Body, there is still a considerable gap compared to such a genius."
"I can't explain so much to a woman like you. Bring gifts and go apologize. If you can gain Yan'er's forgiveness, perhaps there's still a chance for this matter."
Bing Aogu did not reveal the relationship between Chu Feng and Bing Yan. The fewer people who knew about such matters, the better, so that their Extreme Cold Manor could make a stunning impact in the sixty-year battle.
Mu Rou bowed respectfully and said: "Rou'er knows what to do."
"Mm."
Bing Aogu nodded: "This old one has said all that needs to be said. Whether you can succeed depends on yourselves."
After speaking, he turned and left, intending to appease the emotions of the elders, otherwise his position as the family head would be affected.
After watching Bing Aogu leave, Mu Rou turned her gaze to Bing Xiaofeng: "Tell me, what does your sister actually like?"
Bing Xiaofeng scratched his head and said: "I really don't know about that."
"Hmph!"
Mu Rou snorted coldly: "You useless waste. Then tell me about your past times together."
"Yes."
Bing Xiaofeng began to recount the times from his memory.
After listening, Mu Rou's face grew even uglier, and she said through gritted teeth: "Bing Xiaofeng, in a moment, you will come with me to find Sister Bing Yan to offer a humble apology!!!"
