Evil Emperor's Wild Consort - chapter-417

say: were my words satisfactory to you?

Lin Yue’er stopped in her tracks. Her pale white skin turned a sickly
green color. She was completely embarrassed – unable to walk back to
her seat or up to the front and stood stiffly rooted to the ground.

Why was this happening? She wondered. Wasn’t Master Dongfang supposed
to announce the good tidings between Dongfang Shaoze and I? Why was he
announcing something else? Moreover, this girl was actually the daughter
of Dongfang Yu – that wretch who was supposedly long dead?

Lin Yue’er bit her lips. She absolutely hated Dongfang Yu – that
spoiled, pampered brat!

A few years ago, whenever she had wanted to approach Dongfang Shaoze,
that awful woman would hold her back and refused to allow her to disturb
his training! Because of that, she had always harbored a great hatred
towards Dongfang Yu. So when news of her death reached her ears, she was
in ecstasy for many nights.

Since Dongfang Yu’s death, Lin Yue’er had assumed that she would be
able to enter the Dongfang household easily. Who would have thought that
such an evil little star would appear?

Dongfang Yu, your ghost lingers! She fumed.

Lin Yue’er took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

“You say that this little girl is your legitimate maternal
granddaughter?” The Honorable Sir Tian Qi blinked his eyes in disbelief.
“You’re not trying to fool me, are you? She’s the daughter of Gu Tian
and Xiao Yu’er? And Gu Shengxiao’s little sister?”

This surprise was much too sudden! He thought and almost burst out
laughing.

“The Honorable Poison Master,” he said snidely. “For the many years that
you’ve tailed and fought with me, you probably never realized that the
little girl we’ve once fought over was really my own grandniece! Gee,
despite having rejected my offer to become my disciple, she’s still
related to me by blood after all. Now, what abilities will you use to
match mine?”

After so many days in fear of assassination attempts, this momentous
occasion has arrived. The Honorable Sir Tian Qi has never felt happier!
If that old Honorable Poison Master knew, he would certainly burst with
anger.

However, the Honorable Sir Tian Qi did not expect his statement to cause
such a stir. An indistinct murmur spread throughout the crowd:

The Honorable Poison Master and Honorable Sir Tian Qi both offered her to
be their disciple? And she had rejected them both? Just who were these
two people? One is a powerful cultivator from the Spirit Sect and the
other a great bane even to the Three Great Authorities. Whenever these
two would meet, there would be great tribulations. They had fought over
accepting a disciple… Who ended up rejecting them both? This simply
wasn’t logical!

Lin Shao’s face turned into an ugly color and his heart filled with
remorse.

He was thoroughly regretting his offense towards Gu Ruoyun. If the girl
were to insist on barring his sister from entering the Dongfang household
due to her connection with the Honorable Sir Tian Qi, Yue’er may never
have the opportunity to become the mistress of the Dongfang family…

“We’re finished…”

Lin Shao slumped into his seat and let out a desperate sigh. He looked at
his sister, who was sluggish and dazed, then smiled bitterly as he shook
his head.

“I thought she had relied on Dongfang Shaoze’s good graces to come here
and even ridiculed her for being a lazy woman who only depended on
others! I didn’t know that she was, in fact, the flesh and blood of the
Dongfang family. This was all because of Dongfang Yan; if it weren’t
for her words, I wouldn’t have committed such a huge mistake!”

At that moment, Lin Shao placed all blame on Dongfang Yan. If it weren’t
for that woman, he wouldn’t have had to endure such a degree of
embarrassment today.
