586 – Planned for Others; Incited Someone (2)
The force that they had sent out this time wasn’t shabby by any stretch of imagination. If they weren’t from the City of Heitu, they could even start their own sect here on this continent and nobody would look down on them.
“……” Frowning, Xiao Fu did not say anything and nobody knew what he was thinking about.
Seeing that he did not contradict him, Elder Ma thought about it for a second and said, “Even though we are not in the center of Dafeng, we are in Dafeng. Let’s spread out now and see what we can find out. Any news about Sacred Land Zhongyuan, whether they are truthful or not, let’s jot them down so we can talk over them tonight. What do you think of this idea, Xiao Fu?”
“That is a great idea, Elder Ma. I have nothing else to add!” Xiao Fu nodded and agreed to Elder Ma’s suggestion.
As the two of their leaders had already reached an agreement, naturally, nobody else would have any other opinions.
Then they went into actions.
As Cheng Xiao Xiao and Mo Xuanzun were gone, the entire Sacred Land Zhongyuan seemed very quiet. Old Man Ying, along with three other elders, were in charge of recruiting their first batch of disciples in Daling.
Sacred Land Zhongyuan had the Ancient Forefather of Temple of Divine Plans watching over it and everybody felt safe. Old Mrs. Cheng did not surveil today on the outside but went over to Elder Wen’s courtyard.
The two-by-two courtyard held the grandfather to grandson trio. In addition to them, Luo Yuqin had assigned them two handmaids, two houseboys, and three old women servants. Seven servants serving the three of them.
When Old Mrs Cheng Fang Shuyun showed up, the houseboy at the front of the house greeted her immediately, “Greetings, Old Madam.”
“Is your Miss home?”
Old Mrs. Cheng was still fine when Cheng Huihui was born and she had sent her gifts in the past. Now that they were both staying at Sacred Land Zhongyuan, it was sort of fate as well.
Hearing her question, the houseboy replied right away, “Old Madam, Miss Huihui and Young Master Lihui had been out for quite a bit already. They are not in.”
“Oh…”
Fang Shuyun nodded. She knew that Elder Wen wasn’t home so she came over to keep Cheng Huihui company. She hadn’t expected that they’d be out as well.
She didn’t say much before she turned and left. But she didn’t go very far before she ran into three people. They were Cheng Huihui and her nephew, and the other one was…
She thought about it for a little bit and recalled the boy’s name – Liu Danhang. She had learned from her grandson Cheng ZhengYuan that this kid once had feelings for Cheng Xiao Xiao.
And now, he’s with Cheng Huihui. Did he only like girls from the Cheng’s?
“Auntie.”
“Grantauntie.”
When Cheng Huihui and Cheng Lihui called out to Fang Shuyun when they saw her outside of their place.
Liu Danhang, with Cheng Lihu in his hand, felt a roil of emotions when he saw the elegant old madam. She and Cheng Xiao Xiao were too much alike.
If he didn’t know better, he’d think they were sisters instead of grandmother and granddaughter.
“Greetings from Liu Danhang, Old Madam.” Liu Danhang cupped his hands and greeted Fang Shuyun after he had put down the little kid that he was carrying in his arms.
Fang Shuyun didn’t say anything but looked him up and down. The man in front of her might just be a martial scholar, but she also knew that he had only been cultivating for a year’s time. All things considered, he was quite talented.
Albeit his cultivation level wasn’t too high, but he could make up for that with his sincerity. If he would truly take care of Cheng Huihui, the two of them would make a good couple. Thinking of that, Fang Shuyun looked at the two of them from one to the other.
“Auntie,” cried Cheng Huihui shyly. She could, naturally, tell what was going through her aunty’s mind.
