Chapter 277: An Audience
Tian Zhongqing had left with a wave of his sleeve, but Shamoli's heart was clouded with dark thoughts and wild speculations. Meanwhile, Tian Rong, oblivious to the situation, continued his incessant chatter, which only served to make Shamoli even more anxious.
He emptied his mind and pondered, What does Li Xuanxuan mean by this? I have been minding my own business in Mount Yue year after year, not touching the Li Family's spirit fields or items. Surely, they don't have a problem with me... Could this be a form of intimidation?
While Shamoli was still lost in his own thoughts, the carriage came to a sudden stop. Tian Rong, startled, thought Tian Zhongqing had returned and quickly fell silent.
However, he then heard the raspy voice of an elderly man shouting, "The main family's orders have arrived. Great King, how much longer will you wait? Do not miss the appointed time!"
"High Shaman! Please, come in!" Shamoli responded quickly.
An old man with white hair and a face full of wrinkles entered. Despite his aged appearance, his eyes remained sharp and focused. This was the old Mount Yue shaman, Ahuici, who had surrendered to the Li Family years ago. Now at the peak of the Embryonic Breathing Realm, he was too old to make any further breakthroughs.
Shamoli glanced at Tian Rong. Ahuici, with a raised eyebrow, understood immediately. He unceremoniously grabbed Tian Rong like a chicken and threw him out of the carriage, ignoring Tian Rong's incredulous protests. Tian Rong fell to the ground with a loud thud and continued to curse obscenely.
Ahuici frowned deeply, leaned out, and scolded, "Even your father has to address me politely! What the hell are you shouting about? How did Tian Youdao even create such a useless son? He should have pulled it out of his wife and shot you on the ground back then to spare us all this trouble!"
These words not only left Tian Rong trembling with anger but also made Shamoli's eyes widen in surprise. However, he pretended not to have heard his last comment. Ahuici ended his insult by spitting on the ground before turning back, saying, "Great King!"
