Chapter 248: Do You Want to Grow Up? (2)

Elder the Fifteenth said, “Aren’t you heartless to have tortured him like that? Aren’t you heartless to let other sects to set his mother up?”

Elder the Fourth glared at him, “Hey, which side are you on?”

Elder the Fifteenth said, “I am just sticking to the facts.”

Elder the Sixteenth said faintly, “Why don’t you try to rope him in? With him joining us, our Yin Family would become much stronger. With our magic weapons strengthened, other sects would fear us more. Besides, they would also work for us because of the enchanted runes. Isn’t it better than uniting Qi Family by marriage?”

Elder the Fifteenth nodded, “Exactly. Qi Lan always holds grudge against our family, so he would never let his family work for us for real.”

Elder the Seventh said, “But now Rong Yi is trying to kill us. Look at Elder the Fifth and Elder the Eighth! They nearly got killed!”

“If we keep hanging in there, things would only get worse.”

Elder the Fourth darkened his face, “Do you want all of us to lower our heads to a young man? Big brother, you say something. What should we do next?”

Then everyone turned to Elder the First.

Elder the First lowered his eyes, saying unhurriedly, “After the imprisoning thing in Nine Void Sect, Rong Yi has already had a problem with us and born the grudge. Otherwise he wouldn’t want our heads. Now even if we lower our heads to sue for peace, it’s quite possible he would not accept it, and maybe even insult us in our faces. So I say we kill him first! Without him, there’d be no enchanted runes. Then those people wouldn’t work together to get our heads!”

“Yes!” Elder the Fourth totally agreed.

Elder the Sixteenth asked, “Do you take our young master dead already? Do you think he would stand aside and do nothing? Aren’t you afraid he might take the revenge if we really kill Rong Yi?”

Elder the Seventh snorted, “So a man the young master knows for only a few months is even more important than all of us?”

Elder the Fourth said, “The young master is ghost cultivation. He has no feelings. How could he really put Rong Yi in his heart? He saved Rong Yi this time, all for the sake of the kids. After Rong Yi dies, he would soon forget about him!”

Elder the Fifteenth sneered, “Yeah. The young master is ghost cultivation, he has no feelings. So also never count on him to have feelings for us.”

What he was trying to say was they were no more important than Rong Yi in Yin Jinye’s heart.

Elder the Fourth grunted, “What is wrong with you two? Why are you always speaking for Rong Yi? Did you receive enchanted runes from him secretly? Why are you both defending him?”

Elder the Sixteenth gave him a stare, “I just don’t want us to fall out with the young master and finally shake the foundation of our Yin family! Never mind. Do whatever you want. But I won’t meddle in.”

Elder the Ninth, Elder the Tenth, Elder the Eleventh, Elder the Twelfth, Elder the Thirteenth, Elder the Fourteenth and Elder the Fifteenth all said they would stay out it.

Elder the Seventh said, “It’s OK that you don’t want to get your hands dirty, but on one condition, you can’t help Rong Yi under the table!”

Elder the Sixteenth turned around and left, totally ignoring them.

Then Elder the Ninth and others also left.

Elder the Fourth felt a bit upset, “In the past, whatever we did, all of them would be very supportive. Why are you they standing on the opposite side this time?”

Elder the First said, “They have been always soft-hearted, thinking that we should not be so hard on a kid with no background.”

Elder the Seventh said with a mocking tone, “Being soft-hearted isn’t a good thing. No wonder the master didn’t choose him as the big brother.”

Elder the First smiled but didn’t say a word.

While they were discussing how to deal with those enemies and got Rong Yi killed at the same time, Rong Yi was busy with the information chamber thing. First, he asked all the evil beasts to collect all useful information and sorted them out. Since it was only the beginning, he could not find enough trustworthy people, so he could only ask those servants in the mansion to help.

Yin Jinye thought Rong Yi did the right thing, so he ordered a bunch of his reliable subordinates to be at his service. And under such condition, soon the information chamber was set up.

Now their clothes shop became a bit renowned in Zhonghai Prefecture. Under its publicity, a lot of people would ask for information there, plus, the information here was cheaper that Tongtian Chamber. Except selling information, they also bought information. As long as it was some good and useful information, they would pay good money. Gradually, more and more people came here to sell and buy information.

It was December 29th. Wen Chuan had exquisitely decorated the whole mansion auspiciously.

Yan Qiushuang who was playing with the kids asked, “Butler Wen, what big day is it today? Why are you hanging red lanterns and even put up couplets?”

Wen Chuan smiled, “The young master said it’s the New Year’s Eve, like the New Year in our mortal world.”

Having lived for hundreds of years, this was the first time he spent the New Year, feeling quite interested. Other servants in the mansion were also expecting it.

Yan Qiushuang was surprised, “Yi’er likes spending the New Year like the mortals?”

“The young master said too many things have happened in the past few months, so he wants to have a happy New Year to wash away those bad things, and wish a new smooth year. He also said that it is not easy that none of us is secluded for cultivation, so he wants to take this opportunity to have a big get-together.”

Yan Qiushuang thought it was quite reasonable. But she didn’t plan any close-up cultivation in recently years, because she was afraid that she would miss those kids’ growing days.

“Little Sensen, Little Cherry, don’t grow too fast. I’m afraid you would grow as big as your daddy in a blink of the eye. I haven’t held you in my arms enough.” then she kissed on each of their faces.

Jiang Mu then flew over and comforted her, “Grandma, I won’t grow up.”

On hearing that he wouldn’t grow up, Yan Qiushuang felt a bit upset. When Yin Sensen and Yin Tao turned into adults, Jiang Mu was still a kid, and then he would think he was a weirdo and feel lonely, because Yin Tao and Yin Sensen would no longer play with him.

She rubbed his little head and asked, “If your two little brothers grow as big as your daddy, do you want to grow up?”

After thinking a bit, Jiang Mu nodded, “Yes.”

“After some time, grandma will go to search if there’s any prescription that could let you grow up together with your brothers.”

“OK.”

At this time, Rong Yi walked in, “Chatelain Yan, those are the new clothes the young master let Childe Qi make for you. You can change them after taking a bath.”

“Yi’er is so considerate.” Yan Qiushuang saw that her robe was the same style of the kids, then she couldn’t help holding the kids, “Come on. Let’s go take a bath.”

It was getting dark and much colder, but in Rong Mansion it was all bustling.

Rong Yi first led everyone to burn incense for the Door of Gods and offered them meat and fruit, thanking them for their blessing of the whole family in the past year.

After worshipping the gods, he went to the middle of the yard, after taking a deep breath, he shouted, “Happy New Year!”
