Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass - Chapter 405

Chapter 405: The Grand Master Has Arrived 10

After Pang Juan was led through the door by Steward Zhang, he first looked around the courtyard and admired how lavish it was. After entering the side hall, he saw Gongsun She sitting there at one glance, and asked, “Why are you here?”

His expression dark, Gongsun She said, “Didn’t you purposely come here because you knew I was here?”

“Do I look so free?” Pang Juan restrained his speechless expression and observed the people in this side hall. When his gaze landed on Qi Qingyao, he nodded slightly. “Lady Qi, good day.”

Qi Qingyao got up and nodded, her countenance neither humble nor haughty. “Mr. Pang, good day.”

Then she made an inviting gesture. “Please take a seat.”

Li Ruoxuan and Jiang Yeqian had never been as nervous as they were right now. The grand masters of Eastern Ling and Daming had both come and were gathered in one place! This was a grand occasion that was unprecedented even in the Northern Liang Palace.

If either of the two grand masters were to cause trouble, everyone at the scene now would die then and there!

Lu Yan once again could not help pressing the white cat’s body. The white cat felt its back hurt from the squeeze and could not hold itself back from climbing up and using its little claws to swat Lu Yan’s arm. Lu Yan lowered his gaze and looked at it. The white cat swiftly leaped onto Lu Yan’s shoulder, as if to give him courage. Lu Yan’s nervousness subsided a little bit.

After Pang Juan took a seat, he turned to look at Gongsun She, his face filled with suspicion.

Gongsun She did not want him to know that his objective was Qi Qingyao. So he deliberately asked, “Don’t tell me you’re also here to snatch my disciple away?”

Not surprisingly, Pang Juan flew into a rage on the spot. “How is she your disciple? It’s obvious I was the one who had my eyes on her first.”

“Oh.” Gongsun She shrugged his shoulders, expression helpless.

Pang Juan said firmly, “I will never hand that disciple to you.”

Gongsun She was relieved. He said offhandedly, “My motive isn’t the disciple.”

Pang Juan’s curiosity was instantly aroused.

Gongsun She pointed at Qi Qingyao. “It’s her.”

Immediately, he smiled slightly. “As you see, we are not after the same thing, so you don’t have to worry.”

Pang Juan frowned and glanced at Qi Qingyao.

He felt that this little lady was a fair woman at best, but what potential of hers had caught Gongsun She’s attention?

Qi Qingyao was very nervous inside, but on the surface she smiled prettily. “Both of you came here today, one of you is after me and the other is after my daughter. Please give up because you won’t get what you want.”

When Qi Qingyao’s words dropped…

The people who were most nervous were Li Ruoxuan and Jiang Yeqian; both of them were afraid that the two old men would suddenly act out in anger.

Pang Juan frowned and said, “Little lady, are you not afraid that this old man will kill you in a fit of rage and take away the little girl?”

Qi Qingyao’s eyes were half shut as she murmured, “Then, you would have to battle this Mr. Gongsun next to you because he will protect me.”

Pang Juan said seriously, “Since you already said that his goal cannot be achieved, why would he possibly protect you?”

Gongsun She rubbed between his brows and said helplessly, “Actually, I would have to protect her.”

Pang Juan turned to look at him questioningly. Gongsun She’s eyebrows drooped slightly. “Because I think she’s useful to me.”

Pang Juan was really curious now. “What use could a little lady like her be to you?”

“You don’t have to concern yourself about this.” Gongsun She waved his hand.

Lu Yan saw the situation and knew an opportunity had come. He interrupted loudly, “Mr. Pang, Mr. Gongsun said that Qi Qingyao could help him surpass the level of a grand master.”

Jiang Yeqian, “…” Why did you say that?!

Li Ruoxuan, “…” Lu Yan has gone mad! Did he want to push Qi Qingyao into an abyss of suffering?

“??” Pang Juan widened his eyes. The grand master revealed a particularly surprised expression and said, “This little lady has such an ability?”

Gongsun shot Lu Yan an angry look and said, “She doesn’t, don’t listen to that spring chicken’s nonsense.”

After that, he changed his attitude and said a little impatiently, “If you want to kill her, just kill her.”

Jiang Yeqian and Li Ruoxuan’s hearts had risen to their throats.

They cursed internally. What fit was this old man Gongsun throwing now? Stop provoking Pang anymore! That old man could kidnap people in the middle of the night, meaning he was not normal to begin with!

‘If you provoke him now till he loses it, he will really start killing people openly…’

Pang Juan considered Gongsun She’s attitude. “Seeing how nervous you are that you even changed the topic, insisting that I kill this little lady…” Could it be that the kid was actually speaking the truth, that this little lady really could help grand masters break through? However, how could that be possible? She was just an ordinary little lady!

Wait a minute… Her daughter was born with all seventeen of her pressure points open and had the natural gift for cultivation! How could this lady possibly be an ordinary person?!

Pang Juan could not help but ask, “What kind of person are you?”

Gongsun She interjected heavily, “She really isn’t anything, she’s just an ordinary person!”

Pang Juan mulled over the changes in old man Gongsun’s tone from the start till the end. He closed his eyes and said, “Old man Gongsun, you are really nervous~ You’re afraid I will steal the little lady!”

Gongsun She’s calm gaze was filled with imperceptible nervousness and he flatly denied it. “I’m not nervous! If you want to snatch her away then go ahead.”

“You’re going the other way. Very smart, but I don’t believe you.” Pang Juan secretly analyzed the situation at present. “You came to Qi Residence one step earlier than me, but you are still sitting here. The little girl is not here and you just said that your objective is this woman…”

“Just say whatever you want to say, I’m too lazy to deal with you,” Gongsun She said in an utterly discomfited manner. “Since our motives are different, I will not take yours and you also won’t take mine.”

Pang Juan asked again, “Exactly what use does she have to be able to help grand masters break through?” Could she be the legendary fated person?

Gongsun She was being forcefully questioned and became extremely anxious. He cursed, “You really are stupid, you. Which grand master has even broken through before this?”

Pang Juan was speechless.

Gongsun She spat, “Seriously, what a load of nonsense!!”

Pang Juan watched the cursing Gongsun She calmly and a smile appeared on his face.

Gongsun She suddenly thought of something and said, “I admit that I did believe that this kid could help me break through, but I also just think that this kid is destined for me and me alone. You didn’t sense that this girl was predestined to be with you, so there’s no point in you fighting me for her.”

Pang Juan, “…”

Could it be that the new young Northern Liang grand master was initially a low-ranked martial artist, but because he had been in close proximity with this little lady, his rank quickly rose a few levels till he reached rank nine? Then, he surpassed rank nine and reached the level of a grand master?

Was that why no one in the world knew the identity of this young grand master? Because he had suddenly risen up in a short period?

If no one knew about him, the young man might have even broken past the level of a grand master if given just a bit more time.

If you looked at it that way, this little lady could potentially be the fated person of legends that could help those of the grand master level to break through!

Pang Juan suddenly decided on something in his heart.

He said, “Little lady, I don’t want your daughter to be my disciple anymore. I want you to come with me, and help me break through!”

Gongsun She, “???” Did he not already decide on wanting to have the disciple, goddamnit?!

Qi Qingyao, “…”

Jiang Yeqian, “…”

Li Ruoxuan, “…”

Lu Yan, “…”
