Chapter 251 - 250 Rose’s Phone Call (2nd Update)
"Oh my god!"
Lu Tianxing’s face was filled with exasperation. How could everything come down to having children? Clearly, there is no such thing as a free lunch, he thought; there is a price to pay. The old man must be obsessed with having a grandson, resorting to bribery since threats had failed.
"Grandpa, aren’t we straying a bit too far from the topic? Weren’t we talking about the ring?" Lu Tianxing said cautiously.
"Don’t play coy with me. I am telling you, once I’ve decided on something, it won’t change. There, I’ve explained the situation to you. Zhiqing’s life is now in your hands. I can’t be bothered with it anymore. If you like being pointed at and called a famous military knife, a supposed king of the underworld, a ’Useless Judge,’ someone who can’t even protect his own wife, that’s up to you. Now, you can get lost."
Bai Qiao Mountain was unforgiving, not treating Lu Tianxing’s status with any semblance of regard.
"Then I will take my leave first, old man. You should rest early too," Lu Tianxing said.
Exiting the study, Lu Tianxing finally let out a long sigh. The old man definitely had gone crazy over getting a grandson; somehow, he managed to connect every topic to that of having children, making him feel almost neurotic now.
"Four Symbols Ring? I never expected that the reason Bai Zhiqing was being hunted was because of this. It seems the person behind the bounty on Bai Zhiqing has a substantial background, even the old man can’t find out much."
Lu Tianxing mumbled to himself, a gleam of light flashing in his eyes: "I have the Azure Dragon Ring, and the old man holds the Xuanwu Ring. Half of the Four Symbols Rings are in my hands. If I can gather all four rings, could it really open the tomb of the pre-Qin Qi practitioners’ and grant immortality?"
