Cultivation Goddess
Chapters 84. Cannot Avoid
Fang Yin's steps came to a halt in front of the villa's back door. Just like the other villas, this villa also suffered damage although not severe. When the Old Chief touched the door, it collapsed and fell.
"We're suffering a huge loss tonight." The Old Chief turned his head to Fang Yin expressing his annoyance.
"I'm sorry, Chief. I'm also involved in this destruction." Fang Yin scratched his forehead while grimacing within his veil.
"Come in!" The Old Chief again stepped before Fang Yin then headed to the side of the room and sat down in front of a table.
Fang Yin followed him then sat down before him.
Fang Yin's feelings became erratic as the Old Chief looked at him sharply and did not say anything.
'Be prepared, to accept your punishment, Fang Yin! I really was unlucky today. I don't blame Elder Yu for yelling my name. If he doesn't do it maybe I will die, but I should also be blasphemed for being considered rude by the elders for daring to lie to them.' Fang Yin lowered his head not daring to return the Old Chief's gaze.
The Old Chief was aware of the guilt in Fang Yin's eyes even though it wasn't really for that he had called her here.
"Help ...!" The Old Chief cleared his throat to melt the silence in the room.
He was also at a loss to begin with where the story he was going to tell Fang Yin.
"Your name is Xiao Yin, isn't it?" ask the Old Chief later.
"Yes, Chief!" Fang Yin tried to cover up his identity from the Old Chief.
"May I know the name of the clan or clan you have?"
The deg!
The Old Chief's question made Fang Yin feel a little confused. Should he wear the Xi clan from his foster father or pretend not to know. Fang Yin was still speechless as he squeezed the clothes covering his knees.
"No need to answer if you don't want to answer. Your nervousness has convinced me that you are the daughter of my best friend." The Old Chief looked back at Fang Yin's eyes, the same look as Gu Ming Hao's.
Fang Yin's eyes widened when he heard the Old Chief's statement. He felt even more confused by what the foreign man in front of him said. Although he claimed to be a friend of his father, Fang Yin still remained vigilant and did not want to reveal his true identity to the Old Chief.
The Old Chief smiled looking at Fang Yin who looked extremely wary. From the movements of the girl before him he could guess what was in his mind.
'It seemed like this child had gone through so much trouble and danger that it made him extremely vigilant. Escaping the slaughter in the rebellion certainly made him the only remaining Gu clan. I understand why now what reason made him cover up his identity and become someone else. Maybe he will always turn into a different person also in the places he has been in. But I can't for not saying all about his father.' The Old Chief continued to speak in his heart.
"Xiao Yin! I'm sorry if I knew all about your secret. But trust me, I promise not to tell anyone."
Fang Yin simply lowered his head without daring to look at the face of the Old Chief.
He did not agree or refute the young-faced old man's words.
"My father and I are the founders of this sect. At that time your father was single and had not yet been appointed crown prince. An accidental meeting. But it gives an impression that will never be forgotten."
The Old Chief's remark made Fang Yin completely shocked. His body trembled as he felt what the Old Chief had said had approached the truth.
"I miss Prince Gu very much. My heart ached when I heard that he was gone and I could not do anything for him. I feel stupid and useless because I've been hiding in the quiet all this time."
From the corner of the Old Chief's eyes there is a clear point that is not so visible. However Fang Yin knew if it was tears of sadness. It's just that as a man of course he won't cry.
Until this second, Fang Yin had not been able to say anything and chose to listen to the Old Chief's story.
"Xiao Yin, promise me to stay alive and avenge your father! Finish off everyone who betrayed him for me, too! If the day of vengeance comes, never hesitate to call this old man to help you!"
Hearing those words, Fang Yin instantly dropped her body before the Old Chief to pay her respects.
"Gu Fang Yin saluted the Old Chief! Thank you for the humility of the Chairman." Fang Yin's head almost touched the floor with his two fused hands on it.
