âLittle Icy, please show mercy!â Lan Ming, who was pulled away by Old Zao, said worriedly.
It would have been better if Lan Ming didnât say this. After he finished speaking, Lan Tao became even angrier and couldnât help cursing, âStinky brat, is your father that useless? You actually want a puppy to show mercy!â
âUh!â Lan Ming was a little aggrieved.?Boohoo⦠Why am I always the one getting scolded!
âHaha! Just stay here obediently! You donât have to worry about what happens between them. Little Icy knows his limits, and he wonât kill him.â Leng Ruoxue was obviously comforting Lan Ming, but her words were like adding oil to the fire, instantly triggering all of Lan Taoâs anger!
âYou puppy, take this!â Lan Tao roared and prepared to attackâ¦
âHurry up and attack if you want to fight. Thereâs no need to say so much nonsense!â Icy stood up lazily.
âTake this!â Lan Tao gathered light blue mystic power in his palm and then released the water-attribute mystic powerâ¦
Icy looked at the dense water-attribute mystic power approaching him without frowning at all. Instead, he opened his little mouth very calmly and sneezed dozens of times. In the blink of an eye, the raging water-attribute mystic power was repelled. Moreover, it flew directly out of the window with Lan Tao and disappeared into the skyâ¦
âAh! Father!â Lan Ming stood up anxiously and looked out the window, but there was no sign of Lan Tao!
âLittle Icy, where did you send my father? Didnât I beg you to show mercy?â Lan Ming said gloomily.
âI donât know where your father went either. Moreover, I did show mercy! But I have a cold today, so I accidentally sneezed a few more times. Iâm so sorry! I didnât do it on purpose,â Icy said guiltily.
âLittle Lan Lan, donât worry. Your father is a Mystic Supremacy. His body is sturdy, and it wonât break with a single touch.â Leng Ruoxue hugged Icy and comforted Lan Ming.
âUh! Yes, Lan family brat, donât worry. Mystic Supremacies wonât be injured so easily.â The little old man also comforted him. But his eyes couldnât help looking at Icy with surprise.?This puppy is really amazing!?During the time he was with Leng Ruoxue and the others, this puppy named Icy either ate or slept. Therefore, he really didnât know that this puppy actually had such power!
âLittle Lan Lan, donât worry,â Old Zao comforted. He wanted to praise Icy, but now was obviously not the time.
âAlas! I hope so! Iâll go to the Lan family estate and ask them to send people to search for him.â Lan Ming still couldnât be completely at ease.
âI advise you not to go! The Lan family patriarch is obviously a stubborn old man who cares about face. If you tell the Lan family, he will definitely beat you up when he returns!â Leng Ruoxue reminded very kindly.
Uh! Lan Ming knew that what Leng Ruoxue said was the truth, so he was a little hesitant. After thinking about it, he decided not to report to the Lan family.?Alas! Father! You can only count on yourself! Itâs not that I donât care about you. Iâm doing it for your face!
âLittle Lan Lan, are all your Lan family members so⦠shameless?â Leng Ruoxue asked curiously. The first elder of the Lan family was like this, and so was the patriarch. She really didnât know if there were any normal people in the Lan family.
âUh! Of course not,â Lan Ming said speechlessly while wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
âBut⦠why do I feel like theyâre all the same?â Leng Ruoxue said honestly.
âHaha, Lass, you donât know about this. This personality of the Lan family is hereditary. The Lan family members I know are like this. They will do anything to achieve their goals. They donât care about their faces or anything!â the little old man said with a smile.
âUh!â Lan Ming really didnât know what to say. Why didnât his half-brothers inherit such a trait? He didnât either!
âNo wonder!â Leng Ruoxue nodded in realization.
âXueâer, itâs getting late. Letâs go back to our rooms,â Leng Qingtian said. In fact, he felt incomparable pity for the Lan family patriarch. Alas! He could have provoked anyone but their familyâs Little Icy. Now that Little Icy had shown his might, the Lan family patriarch had disappeared.?Uh! Good luck to you, Patriarch! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOkay!â Leng Ruoxue nodded. After sending Leng Qingtian and the others away, she entered the bracelet with Freak and Icy.
âBig Sister.â Qing Jue appeared in front of Leng Ruoxue.
âQing Jue, how are Big Brother and the others?â Leng Ruoxue asked with concern.
âTheyâre alright,â Qing Jue answered.
âWhereâs Confound?â Leng Ruoxue asked again.
âMaster, Iâm here.â A small white snake appeared on Leng Ruoxueâs wrist.
âConfound, are you confident?â Leng Ruoxue asked.
âMaster, it depends on how strong that personâs willpower and strength are. Iâm not too confident if heâs too strong,â Confound said honestly.
âDonât worry. I donât think his willpower is very strong. As for his strength, heâs just an Elementary Mystic like me,â Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.
âThatâs much easier. But I have to prepare first,â Confound said.
âOkay. Tell me if you need anything.â Leng Ruoxue nodded.
âMaster, Iâm going down to prepare.â Confound slipped off Leng Ruoxueâs wrist and left.
After Confound left, Leng Ruoxue and Freak walked into the purple bamboo house to restâ¦
The next morningâ¦
After Leng Ruoxue and Freak left the bracelet, they went directly to Zheng Enâs room.
âMiss.â Zheng En heard a knock on the door and opened it.
âZheng En, weâre going to the exchange with you today,â Leng Ruoxue said bluntly. Zheng En and Lan Ming were supposed to go together today, but she was a little worried after what had happened yesterday, so she decided to go with them.
âMiss!â Zheng En didnât know how to express his gratitude.
âLetâs go! Go get Lan Ming. Weâll wait for you at the entrance of the inn.â Leng Ruoxue left with Freak after instructing him.
At the medicinal herb exchange meeting venueâ¦
