Chapter 109 Meng Ziling

"Are you Meng Yi's apprentice?" Mr. Bai finally spoke, and asked about Lin Qian's identity as soon as he opened his mouth.

Lin Qian narrowed her eyes. Does this person also have some grudge against the master?

"Yes, my master is Meng Yi. I wonder why Master Bai is asking this?"

Mr. Bai pointed with his fan at a small teahouse outside the Yaowang Temple and said, "I'd like to invite you for a cup of tea."

This development was somewhat puzzling, but Mr. Bai seemed quite calm and didn't start shouting for war and killing right away. It seemed that he was not Meng Yi's enemy.

After taking a look at Mr. Bai, Lin Qian nodded in agreement.

The three of them entered the small teahouse together.

Behind them, the emperor and Wei Xiaoran were looking over here with their arms folded.

Seeing Wei Xiaoran gritting his teeth, the emperor teased, "Look, your Qianqian is about to cheat on you!"

Wei Xiaoran glanced at the emperor, who immediately shrugged his shoulders: "I didn't provoke you, why are you angry at me? What? Do you want to go and see?"

Wei Xiaoran didn't say anything, but walked towards the teahouse very quickly. The emperor quickly jogged to catch up with him.

After the tea came, Mr. Bai said something directly, and with a click, the teacup in Lin Qian's hand fell on the table.

Mr. Bai quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the tea stains on Lin Qian's hands and clothes, but Lin Qian grabbed his hand.

"Is everything you said true?" Lin Qian stared straight at Mr. Bai and asked.

The current emperor and the prime minister, who were hiding on the side and peeping in, all changed their expressions.

Unlike Wei Xiaoran's gloomy face, the emperor was quite excited. He shook Wei Xiaoran beside him and said, "Look, look! They're holding hands!"

Wei Xiaoran suddenly pulled his arm free and said through gritted teeth, "I saw it!"

But his eyes were fixed on the hands of Mr. Bai and Lin Qian, and he wished he could go up and pry them apart, and then chop off the man's hand.

Lin Qian didn't notice the low pressure here at all and kept looking at Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai nodded: "Really, I am Meng Ziling, and Meng Yi is my uncle."

"What evidence do you have?" Lin Qian finally calmed down and asked. After all, she had never seen the real Meng Ziling. What if this Mr. Bai was lying to her?

"I have been in the Immortal Doctor Valley for many years. Bai Hongfeng, the Valley Master, is my adoptive father. It was not until a year ago when I came out and met Aunt Zelan and Uncle Ge that I learned that my uncle had accepted an apprentice.

I've also been to Duyun Peak and visited my uncle," said Mr. Bai.

Ye Zelan and Ge Yuanqing were certain of the identity of this Mr. Bai. If they both recognized him, then he must be Meng Ziling.

Lin Qian stood up, saluted Meng Ziling, and called out, "Senior Brother Ziling."

Although Xu Jingcheng didn't understand the situation, seeing that his master had saluted, he quickly stood up, saluted as a junior to Meng Ziling, and called him "Uncle Master Ziling".

Meng Ziling quickly returned the greeting to Lin Qian and said, "Aunt Zelan told me everything about my uncle. I want to thank you for letting my uncle pass away without any regrets."

"Oh my! Look! They've already paid their respects. My dear Wei, does this mean that someone has poached your girlfriend?" Looking at the two people bowing over there, the emperor asked in a mean way, adding fuel to the fire.

Wei Xiaoran finally couldn't help it and walked over with big strides.

The emperor followed with a chuckle, but in his heart he was just enjoying the fun and wanted the two of them to start fighting right away.

"Qianqian? Why are you here? What are you doing?" Wei Xiaoran walked over and asked in surprise, as if he had just discovered the three of them.

Later, the emperor couldn't help but sigh when he saw Wei Xiaoran like this. It was the first time he saw Wei Xiaoran's superb acting skills.

Meng Ziling smiled at Wei Xiaoran, but was startled by the other's cold eyes. He was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Qian, and immediately understood, raising his eyebrows in understanding.

Lin Qian saw Wei Xiaoran and happily pulled him over, saying excitedly, "Xiaoran, this is my Senior Brother Ziling, Master's nephew and the only relative Master has left in the world."

"It turns out to be Senior Brother Ziling. Xiaoran is here to greet you." Wei Xiaoran immediately seemed like a different person. He smiled at him gently, gracefully, and saluted.

The corners of Meng Ziling's mouth twitched, and he nodded, thinking to himself, this person changes his expression so quickly!

"No need to be so polite, Junior Sister, who is this?" Meng Ziling looked at Lin Qian and asked.

Lin Qian said, "This is one of my brothers. He has known the master since he was a child." Wei Xiaoran nodded beside him.

Brother? Seeing Wei Xiaoran clinging to Lin Qian, his eyes full of vigilance as he looked at her, he didn't look like a brother at all, more like a beloved brother.

At this time, the emperor who had been ignored finally couldn't help but laughed. It turned out that Wei Xiaoran was still wishful thinking, and Lin Qian didn't know his feelings at all.

He smiled and everyone turned to look at him.

"Brother Xiaoran? Who is this?" Lin Qian saw the emperor and asked Wei Xiaoran beside him.

Wei Xiaoran said, "This is a wealthy young man who likes to do nothing. His surname is Huang, so you can just call him Young Master Huang."

The idle Mr. Huang? Lin Qian was a little skeptical. This Mr. Huang was obviously a rare talent, with an aura of nobility. How could he be like what Wei Xiaoran said?

His surname is Huang, and he follows Wei Xiaoran. Could this person be the emperor?

Lin Qian couldn't help but look at Mr. Huang twice more. Mr. Huang noticed Lin Qian's gaze and smiled at him.

Wei Xiaoran separated the two of them without leaving any trace, and the emperor couldn't help but roll his eyes to the sky.

However, Lin Qian saw a warning in Wei Xiaoran's eyes, and she became even more convinced that Young Master Huang was the emperor, so she dared not look at him again.

Meng Ziling looked at this and that, knowing that today was not a good time to talk, he said to Lin Qian: "Junior sister, why don't we talk tomorrow? I'll take my leave today."

Lin Qian hurriedly said, "Brother, why don't you come with me home? My parents would be very happy if they knew that Master still has relatives around." She still had many things to ask Meng Ziling.

Meng Ziling glanced at Wei Xiaoran, a little hesitant, not knowing whether to agree.

Lin Qian was just about to ask Wei Xiaoran to go with her when she suddenly remembered Young Master Huang and said, "Brother Xiaoran, I guess you still have to accompany Young Master Huang. So we'll go home first and you guys can take your time shopping."

Wei Xiaoran felt so aggrieved. He really wanted to go back with Lin Qian, but he was followed by an unreliable emperor.

He couldn't abandon him, so he could only nod with tears in his eyes, watch Lin Qian and the others' backs, and then give the emperor a glare.

"You can't blame me for this," the emperor said innocently with a shrug. He then mocked Wei Xiaoran, "I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you've been secretly in love with her for so long, why haven't you won her over yet? Do you want me to teach you some lessons?"

Wei Xiaoran looked at the emperor with disdain. We are all bachelors, where do you get your experience?

But he walked over honestly, pretending to listen attentively.
