Bai Chang Feng could already imagine the damage those two girls were making so he didn’t dare to dabble on the topic any further. “I estimate… they went out to play.”


  “Then just leave them be. Grandfather, did you…. break into the Saint Rank?” Squinting her eyes in an examining manner, Bai Yan was rather surprised by her grandpa’s progress.

  Chuckling in response: “It was about two hours ago. The atmosphere around the island suddenly changed and became thick with spirit particles. By taking advantage of that opportunity, I, Chu Ran and that Wu Wei… oh yes, there’s your grandmother Jun Tian Yue as well, we’ve all broken through into the Saint Rank.”


  This time Bai Yan literally gawked her eyes out.

  About two hours ago?

  Wait, isn’t that around the same time I completed the refinement process for the pills in my hand? It can’t be, the alchemic trial is the cause for the island’s change?

  “Grandfather,” caressing her chin, she muses for a moment before speaking. “Can you go call Lord Chu Ran and my grandmother over….”


  Bai Yan originally wanted to include Chief Wu Wei in her sentence but halted at the last moment due to the trouble of deciding what to call that man.

  “And call Grandpa Wu Wei over as well, I have something to give them.”


  Bai Chang Feng definitely didn’t like the way the girl addressed that person of course, evident by the puckering lip on this old senior. However, he’s had to admit that Chief Wu Wei did the right thing before by offering some spots for the Lan family during the critical period. That fact helped press down the discontent.

  “My precious granddaughter, I won’t object to you calling him your grandfather, but…. I won’t forgive him from the bottom of my heart.”


  At the very least not until his daughter Bai Ning was found. The missing woman was this old grandpa’s ache and pain, a scar that he couldn’t remove.

  “I know, nothing is going to change the fact that he split my parents apart, nor can he dismiss his part in my mother’s disappearance. However, I can’t deny him being unaware of the truth. At the very least he never deliberately hurt my mother so I will bear with the past until Mother is found. Father and Grandmother would surely prefer it this way.”


  That’s right, Bai Yan’s mainly going at this subject out of her emotional ties to Jun Tian Yue (grandmother) and Yun Feng (father), while Chief Wu Wei acted as the benefactor, that’s all.

  Sure enough, Bai Chang Feng’s mood got better after hearing that statement. Raising a smile: “That’s right, I am the most important grandfather in your heart, and that old thing can only stand behind me as a second.” Huffing and puffing, there’s a twisted sense of glee in the old grandpa’s heart regarding his own opinion.

  Looking at this old guy’s jealous appearance, Bai Yan just couldn’t resist a laugh like she’s watching a man child. Patting his shoulder with a smile of her own: “Grandfather, don’t worry, your place in my heart can never be replaced.”


  Very pleased by what he’s heard, Bai Chang Feng breaks out into a roaring laugh of pride: “Haha, you said it right Yan’er. That Wu Wei can never replace me, otherwise… ugh, just thinking of that possibility is making my mood go foul!”


  “Grandfather, let’s continue our conversation after you call them over. It’s getting late and I don’t want to postpone the matter.” All smiles as well, she was very happy to see the old fella in a good mood after the fright they must’ve felt during these couple of days.
