Chapter 1441 – Go With Xiaoxiao

“That's the way! That's my disciple for you! A true man can wait until the right time for a revenge, even ten years isn't too much! As long as House Zhao doesn't officially take you into their list of descendants and have you register at the n.o.ble house committee, you're not a Zhao, at least on the surface- if you go to Lin Yi for revenge, no one will be able to say anything to you!” Elder Bi nodded confidently, “Don't worry, as my disciple, I'll give you access to all the treasures for qi pract.i.tioning, I'll help you strengthen up as quick as possible!”

“Ah! Thank you s.h.i.+fu!” Qibing said, excited to the point of trembling as he heard the words- this was the type of treatment that even his father couldn't get! He may be the head, but there was a certain limit to the things he could use for pract.i.tioning.

There had been no other reason but the fact that Old Zhao and Elder Bi weren't too fond of Guangyin- they felt that he didn't have the drive. Giving the family to him for management wouldn't make it deteriorate and maintaining their status as is was easier than creating and pioneering into new areas. Since they new that there wouldn't be much of an imrpovement, the old man didn't spend too much time on him. Guangyin's strength level didn't really matter anyway, as it was Old Zhao that wanted to go into isolated pract.i.tioning and just leave the management to Guangyin while he was in there. As for the other disciples, they were even less suited for the job, and so they chose Guangyin for that task.

Qibing, on the other hand, was someone that Elder Bi had personally taken on as his student. He would spend a lot of effort on him, and even if Qibing didn't have the talent for pract.i.tioning, he would have access to all those qi pract.i.tioning treasures. Plus, Elder Bi had already looked at Qibing's origins- the kid had decent talent and it was just that he hadn't been doing it since small. Though, that didn't matter as long as they had the foundation elixir.

“Alright, Qibing- is there anything else you need to handle here? You'll be coming back to House Zhao with me to learn pract.i.tioning, so leave everything here to Cihua and lil' Zhu!” Elder Bi said- his purpose this time was to bring the meridian opening elixir to Uncle Zhu, so he now had nothing else to do.

“Ah, s.h.i.+fu- you're saying that you're bringing me back to House Zhao? Is that really okay? I'm still a a b.a.s.t.a.r.d after all!” Qibing was concerned about not being accepted, but at the same time, he still didn't really want to leave the common world behind! He may have the stauts of Elder Bi's disciple if he went back to House Zhao now but he still had to be careful and wouldn't have a powerful status at that place. He still had to be worried of Yu Xiaojin, who would most likely be out to get him. Before his position solidified, he didn't want to go back yet!

It wouldn't be a problem if he didn't plan or plot anything, and just take whatever was given to him and take up a high position there- but he didn't want that!

“Oh? What you mean is…” Elder Bi paused, smiling, “You're my disciple now- n.o.body would say anything about you!”

“I know that, but s.h.i.+fu… I'm also worried for grandpa and House Zhao!” Qibing said seriously, “s.h.i.+fu, think about it, I'm appearing in House Zhao out of nowhere and with no explanation- n.o.body would say anything, but they would at least think about it! What if rumors started? We need to be careful, especially when the pill I got for grandpa was something hidden from Aunt Yu! Before grandpa comes out, we need to hide this fact as much as possible, or House Yu might do something drastic!”

“You're right! I didn't expect for you to think this far!” Elder Bi said, nodding his head with praise, “I hadn't thought of that, you're right- your ident.i.ty is a bit sensitive right now, suddenly entering House Zhao without reason- people would have their suspicions! Alright, as the head of the house is in isolated pract.i.tioning, you stay here at the Floating Cloud bar first- I'll come here often to teach you. Is there an isolated room here?”

“There is!” Qibing said happily. In truth, he just wanted to go back to House Zhao with his head raised high and his name proper, and not go in and live in danger like a coward.

“Alright, then let's go there- I'll give you the foundation elixir that will change your bones and body structure!”

“Please, Master!” Qibing said.

“Lil' Zhu, you come too- you use the meridian opening elixir at the same time as Qibing- I'll help you!” Elder Bi said.

“Thank you, Elder Bi!” Uncle Zhu was overjoyed as well- with Elder Bi on their side, their path would be as smooth as ever!

When Uncle Fu returned to the villa, he was accompanied by Feng Tianlong.

“Uncle Feng!” Lin Yi got up to greet him.

“Yi, no need for the courtesies! How is it? I came back once I heard of the news!” Tianlong said worriedly, “Do you have any news regarding the fruit?”

“Yes!” Lin Yi said with confidence, “But I only have a location- no specific spot. I'll go look for it after taking care of things here!”

“That's good!” Tianlong said, filled with joy after hearing the words. At the moment, there was only hope, but that was better than nothing! But still, Tianlong couldn't help but ask, “Then… how many fruits would there be”

“There should be many on the one tree, I think?” Lin Yi was only guessing. Juli's notes didn't talk about this specifically, but at that time he took two, and judging by his tone there should be more than that, “At least two!”

“Good! Good! That means Shushu can be saved as well?”Tianlong said, excited and very touched- he didn't think that he would be able to see her again!

“There should be hope for Aunt Xiao, but the Fire Spirit Fruit must be contained in a special box, and I can only bring one back,” Lin Yi said, “So, I'm thinking of bringing Xiaoxiao with me, and I'll be able to bring one back once Xiaoxiao gets better.

Hearing Lin Yi's words made Tianlong worried at first- he thought that he wouldn't be willing to save Xiao Shushu. Since he could only bring one back, he would give it to Xiaoxiao for sure- who knew when he would be able to go back?

But now that Lin Yi said he would be going with Xiaoxiao, as well as bringing one back for Shushu- this really moved Tianlong to the core!

“Thank you, Yi- really, thank you!” Tianlong patted him on the shoulder, “Meeting you really is a miracle for our familY!”

“Haha… Xiaoxiao is my girlfriend, so we're family from now on- no need for that!” Lin Yi smiled, “But Uncle Feng, you need to help me prepare a speciailized landrover that can move Xiaoxiao's ice container, as well as maintain the temperature!”

“Of course! No problem at all!” Tianlong said immediately, “Since that's the case, I'll get that done right now- it'll be ready when you're ready to depart!
