With Dongfang Bubai gone, Sang San Niang felt a slight sense of relief.
Then, looking at Qu Yang, who was standing up but looked flustered, Sang San Niang sighed softly.
After taking a few steps forward to Qu Yang's side, Sang San Niang patted Qu Yang on the shoulder and said, "Old Qu, why did you do this? You know the rules of the Divine Cult, but you still insisted on leaving. Now look what's happened, you've dragged your granddaughter into this mess."
Listening to Sang San Niang's comforting words, Qu Yang grabbed her shoulder and asked, "Sang San Niang, why is Fei Yan with the sect leader? Why didn't you mention this before?"
In response to Qu Yang's question, Sang San Niang smiled wryly and said, "Don't ask me. I just found out myself. It turns out that the one who goes out to buy groceries every day is your granddaughter. After all, who dares to ask too many questions about the affairs of the sect leader?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Yang helplessly lowered his hand, a hint of regret appearing on his face.
After a moment, Qu Yang looked at Sang San Niang and said, "Tell me, if I tell the leader now that I'm not leaving the cult, will the leader let Fei Yan go?"
Sang San Niang hurriedly said, "I advise you not to do anything foolish. Don't you know the leader's personality? Once he makes a decision, he won't change it. If you do this, and the leader is dissatisfied, not only you, but your granddaughter might not live tonight either. You don't want your granddaughter to die at such a young age, do you?"
Hearing what Sang San Niang said, Qu Yang helplessly let go of Sang San Niang's hand, his heart filled with regret.
Seeing Qu Yang's state, Sang San Niang sighed and didn't ask the two maids in the courtyard which one was Qu Yang's granddaughter.
Instead, he patted Qu Yang on the shoulder again and said, "Try to think more positively! Besides, your granddaughter is still young. You may want to retire to the mountains, but your granddaughter may not want to. How many young people can be so patient?"
However, Qu Yang felt no comfort whatsoever from Sang San Niang's calm demeanor.
Qu Yang knew perfectly well who Dongfang Bubai was all these years ago.
It is said that serving a ruler is like serving a tiger.
This statement would not be an exaggeration to apply to Dongfang Bubai as well.
Although Qu Feiyan is intelligent, she is still young and cannot grasp the situation.
Working under Dongfang Bubai could lead to certain death if one were to anger him!
Just as Qu Yang was filled with regret, a head peeked out from the alleyway.
When Qu Feiyan saw Qu Yang in the alley, her face lit up with joy.
"grandfather!"
As soon as she spoke, Qu Feiyan used her lightness skill to enter the alley.
As Sang San Niang watched Qu Feiyan enter the alley, a look of realization flashed in her eyes.
He then patted Qu Yang on the shoulder and said, "You should talk to your granddaughter properly!"
After saying that, Sang San Niang nodded to Qu Feiyan and then walked out of the alley.
After Sang San Niang left, Qu Feiyan jumped up to Qu Yang, grabbed his arm, and said, "Grandpa, why did you suddenly come to find me? Did you receive the message I left for you?"
Qu Yang was taken aback for a moment, but then immediately realized what Qu Feiyan meant.
After all, Qu Yang knew how Qu Feiyan had lived all these years.
Therefore, whenever Qu Feiyan went out to hide in other places, she would leave a message for Qu Yang in a unique way so that Qu Yang could find her after he finished his business.
Thinking back on the life his granddaughter was living, Qu Yang couldn't help but feel guilty towards Qu Feiyan.
"You've suffered all these years! It's all because your grandfather is incompetent that you can't even live a peaceful life."
Seeing Qu Yang's guilty expression, Qu Feiyan patted him and smiled, "It's okay, life is pretty good like this now."
As he spoke, thinking about his life over the past month, Qu Yang's smile deepened.
However, the next second, Qu Feiyan suddenly frowned and then said, "Grandpa, didn't you and Uncle Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan Sect get along well before? Why don't you go and play the zither and drink wine with him every day, and you don't have to stay in the Sun Moon Divine Sect anymore."
In Qu Feiyan's view, she was living a leisurely and comfortable life in Chu Qinghe's courtyard every day, but Qu Yang was still fighting for his life outside, and his life was too dangerous and uncertain.
After Qu Yang leaves, just tell Dongfang Bubai.
Qu Feiyan felt that given her current relationship with Dongfang Bubai and the influence of Chu Qinghe, Dongfang Bubai probably wouldn't make things too difficult for her; at most, it would just be a minor punishment.
Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Qu Yang said with a bitter face, "But what will you do if Grandpa leaves? It's not so easy to stay by the Sect Leader's side."
Qu Feiyan said, "It's alright, things are fine as they are now. Sister Dongfang is also very good to me."
Qu Yang said, "That's only for now. What if you offend the cult leader later?"
After thinking about her time with Dongfang Bubai in Chu Qinghe Academy, Qu Feiyan said, "Don't worry! It shouldn't happen."
Looking at the sensible Qu Feiyan in front of him, Qu Yang felt even more guilty and sad.
Thinking of Qu Feiyan's deceased parents, and looking at Qu Feiyan in front of him, Qu Yang took a deep breath, and a hint of determination suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Then he said, "Okay, Grandpa will listen to Feiyan. Grandpa will come to find you again tonight, and then I'll go find your Uncle Liu."
You should know that when she first came out, Qu Feiyan was busy in the kitchen, and she was also thinking about the dishes cooking in the pot.
At this moment, facing Qu Yang's words, they clearly did not understand the true meaning behind Qu Yang's words.
Therefore, upon hearing that Qu Yang would come to see her again that evening, Qu Feiyan didn't think much of it and nodded, saying, "Alright, since the young master isn't home right now, I'll bring some nice things for my grandfather once he agrees."
