Chapter 1432: What Rewards Do You Want

Chapter 1431 – What Rewards Do You Want

“Oh… Okay…” Xiaojin said helplessly. The old elder Zhao had already voiced his intention, and there was nothing she could do- although she didn’t understand. Didn’t the old man always have a disliking for what Guanyin did when he was younger? Did he not dislike the bastard that he had fostered outside? This was also why Qibing was never brought home, because the old man didn’t support it in the first place- it was why Guangyin didn’t do anything!

Her eyes were filled with confusion as she looked at the three leave. She felt that something must be up- she came from a hidden house, so naturally she wasn’t an idiot. Since this was something the old elder Zhao had ordered, she couldn’t just go and ask him- she would have to wait.

“Qibing, when you meet your grandpa later you need to have manners- don’t say anything you shouldn’t say!” Guangyin warned Qibing as they neared the old man’s villa entreance.

“Don’t worry dad, I won’t,” Qibing nodded carefully.

Elder Bi had already went ahead and informed Old Zhao, and came back soon after, “Young head, Qibing, the head of the house asks for us to enter together!”

Now, Qibing still hadn’t received the approval of the old man yet, so Elder Bi didn’t use a proper title for Qibing yet. He would have to call him Master Bing when that happened! No matter how high his status was, he was just manager in a high position of House Zhao- he still had to follow the rules.

Guangyin nodded and brought Qibing into the villa together. This was the first time he met the old man, having only met Guanyin before in the past.

The old man in white robes gave off an immense pressure, to the point where Qibing couldn’t look him directly in the eye. Fortunately, he was in a wheelchair and so had something to hold onto. He would’ve been much more nervous otherwise.

“Qibing is it? Raise your head, let grandpa have a look at you!” Old Elder Zhao sighed slightly when he saw how grown up Qibing already was. It was the first time he had seen him after so long, having only seen pictures before this.

“Yes, grandfather!” Qibing raised his head respectfully, “Please forgive me, grandfather, I can’t stand up to greet you, my legs haven’t healed yet…”

“It’s alright,” Old Zhao waved his hand. Evidently, he wasn’t giving Qibing the respect that Elder Bi was willing to give. He had less of an understanding towards him compared to Elder Bi, and he also that on the outside, the kid was a bit of a wild one, so who knew whether this respectful look he was showing now was real or not?

“I hear you’ve acquired a qi gathering pill?”

“Yes, grandfather, it’s here!” Qibing carefully took out the small bottle with the pill inside, using both his hands to hold it in front of him, “I have never met you before, grandfather, but I’ve always thought of you- so when I heard House Yu’s Yu Shuixing had this pill on him, I tried everything I could to get it to you, grandfather!”

“Lil Bi, have you checked the pill?” Old Zhao said.

“No, neither the head nor I have touched the pill. We were waiting for you to take a look yourself!” Elder Bi said carefully.

After all, Elder Bi was an Earth class late phase peak as well, with only one step away until Sky class. Because of that, he had to be careful and leave the pill alone- otherwise, if it were to be fake, there was a chance that people might suspect him of swapping it away.

“Bring it here then,” Old Zhao nodded. He knew what Elder Bi was thinking, and after all these years he had strong trust in him already. All these years, he always gave the treasures for him to use first.

“Yes!” Guangyin took Qibing’s pill and gave it to the old man.

He took the pill, excited at the small bottle. Taking a deep breath, the old man opened it carefuly and sniffed it- his eyes had a flare of joy, “This is it! This should be the qi gathering pill!”

Old Zhao was on the verge of breaking through, and as a result had done extensive studies on the pill. He had been searching everywhere for it, and was well aware of how it looked and how it smelled- one look was already enough to confirm it was real!

“So it is the pill!” Old Zhao stood up all of a sudden as he looked at Qibing gratefully, “Haha, I didn’t expect this, what a surprise! With so many capable people in House Zhao, using all their resources to look for this pill- in the end it was the bastard of House Zhao that found it, and I never even mentioned it to him! He had the heart to get it all himself! You all take a look, Guangyin, take a look! What a marvellous grandchild!”

It was only natural for the old man to be this excited and happy- this was something he had spent a long time looking for, an insane treasure- Qibing had done a powerful deed for House Zhao! There was no one who could match his feat!

“Thank you, Grandfather! I might be a bastard, and I might’ve grown up in the common world, but I have always been careful- I’m a family member of the Zhaos, so I would do anything for House Zhao, it’s my responsibility as well! This was what I was supposed to do, there’s no need for praise!” Qibing said respectfully.

“Good, very good!” Old Zhao said, finally giving his approval, “Good, indeed! What reward do you want? Tell me, as long as I can manage it, I’ll give the promise!”

Qibing froze in excitement as he heard the words- he wanted to be the heir, the future head of the house, but naturally this wasn’t something he could say, he would be an idiot if he did. Grandpa was only saying that as courtesy, if he really were to say something like that it would be just too arrogant. Even if his grandpa didn’t say anything to him to his face after that, there was no way he would like him. In the end, he wouldn’t even become the heir.

And so, he made sure to look shocked, “I’ve said it already, this is the least I could do! I didn’t do it for a reward- this was all what should be expected of me.”

“Haha!” Old Zhao started laughing, “You really don’t want anything? Just say it. If you wanted to be a practitioner, or if you wanted to come back to House Zhao, or maybe… to be brought up as the next heir?”

Old Zhao’s words were heavy- this made Qibing tempted, but he knew that this was most likely a test. The two things he mentioned first would be granted if he wanted it, but the last one about being the heir… Qibing knew that if he really said yes to that reward, the pill would be as good as wasted, his efforts would’ve been wasted!
