Chapter 492: Chapter 492 A Hint of Conspiracy (2)_1

Lady, Mistress?

Dugu Qianye looked at Tian Bo, saw his slightly evasive gaze, nodded, and said, "Alright." After speaking, she closed the door and went with Tian Bo to Green Emperor Xiahou’s room.

Tian Bo knocked on the door, waited for a response from inside, opened it, and led Dugu Qianye in.

"Master, Mistress, Miss Qianye has arrived," Tian Bo announced with a bow before retreating behind Xiahou Chun. Seeing Green Emperor Xiahou’s reproachful look, he lowered his head.

He had heard from Dugu Qianye the day before that she did not yet plan to go to the Alchemist Sect, but it was not a solution to leave matters with Green Emperor Xiahou unresolved. That’s why he had informed Mr. and Mrs. Xiahou Chun.

Upon entering, Dugu Qianye saw a square-faced middle-aged man seated in the center, with a dignified woman sitting beside him, and Green Emperor Xiahou on the other side of him. Without guessing, she knew they were the Green Emperor’s parents.

"Sect Master Xiahou, Mistress!" Dugu Qianye greeted the two with a bow.

Even though she was Green Emperor Xiahou’s supposed teacher, she was still a junior, and it was proper for her to bow to them.

Xiahou Chun scrutinized Dugu Qianye, while Xiao Wanwan glared at her dissatisfiedly. The blame in her eyes wrapped around Dugu Qianye like a net. If it weren’t for Dugu Qianye being recognized as his teacher, and only going to a lower realm to compete, Green Emperor Xiahou wouldn’t have been teased for so long. Especially because of her, Green Emperor Xiahou had only won second place, which caused a great loss of face to the Alchemist Sect!

"You are Dugu Qianye?" Xiahou Chun spoke, his aura of superiority flooding out and pressing down on Dugu Qianye.

Dugu Qianye stood there smiling. Having been in contact with the likes of Zi Xiao and Mang Qianjun for so long, Xiahou Chun’s aura didn’t affect her much. Fortunately, he wasn’t using oppressive force. She moved slightly, and his aura was deflected back, causing him to sway slightly.

"How dare you!" Xiao Wanwan, seeing Dugu Qianye’s behavior, attempted to scold her but was stopped by Xiahou Chun’s wave of his hand.

"Who are you?" Xiahou Chun demanded, looking at Dugu Qianye.

Without responding, Dugu Qianye found a chair and sat down. She had just paid them respect because they were elders, and she was a junior. But they couldn’t treat her this way just because of that. If they wanted to compare statuses, would her identity as a Creator God overwhelm theirs? Cough cough, of course, she was just thinking about it. However, given their unfriendly attitude, she couldn’t lose her composure!

"Sect Master Xiahou, you know who I am, so why bother asking?" Dugu Qianye said, seated in the chair and sneering.

"Ill-mannered!" Xiao Wanwan accused.

Dugu Qianye didn’t get angry at her words, and chuckled, "I don’t think this is a display of good manners from the Sect Master’s wife! People must respect others first before they can be respected in return!"

"Hmph, someone from a lower realm has the nerve to ask for respect!" Xiao Wanwan retorted with a cold snort.

"Mother!" Green Emperor Xiahou frowned and growled softly.

Xiao Wanwan, who had been haughty a moment ago, suddenly burst into tears, throwing herself onto Xiahou Chun’s shoulder and cried out, "I can’t live like this, I’ve devoted so many years to raising my son, just to be shouted at by an outsider! Husband, I might as well be dead! Wuuu..."

"Mother..." Green Emperor Xiahou called out helplessly.

"Hehe," Dugu Qianye chuckled and said, "Does the Sect Master’s wife mean to say that people from the lower realms don’t deserve respect? Also, next time the Sect Master’s wife cries, she could smear some chili water under her eyes. That would look more convincing and perhaps make my foolish disciple worry in a more worthwhile way."

"You?!" Xiao Wanwan lifted her head from Xiahou Chun’s shoulder, staring at Dugu Qianye.

"Madam constantly claims to love the Green Emperor, but every time you use death as a threat against your own son. I’ve heard you’ve forced the Green Emperor to sever his master-apprentice relationship with me by threatening with your own death! Such great maternal love is truly unbearable! Has the Madam ever considered the Green Emperor’s feelings when doing so?" Dugu Qianye said.

"Hmph, a person from the lower realm, where do you get the qualifications to be my son’s master? If you know what’s best, you’d sever the master-apprentice relationship with my son quickly and not force us to take action!" Xiao Wanwan truly looked down on people who came from the lower realms.

Dugu Qianye no longer argued with Xiao Wanwan. He had just noticed that when he mentioned death as coercion, Xiahou Chun’s eyebrows had frowned, so he turned his gaze towards him and asked, "May I ask the Sect Master, what kind of person do you think is qualified to be your son’s master?"

"Strength, status," Xiahou Chun simply replied.

Ever since Dugu Qianye’s aura had made him tremble just now, he had become more thoughtful about Dugu Qianye. Hearing his question, he gave his own answer.

Strength, meaning her strength must be formidable, her alchemy-grade high.

Status meant that she must have a noble identity to be worthy of becoming the master of the Alchemist Sect’s Young Sect Master.

"Having strength but lacking status, but how can you be sure this person won’t become someone with status in the future?" Dugu Qianye said, "Or does the Sect Master believe that status is preordained, that those with status are always highborn, while those without it can only be contemptible forever?!"

"Hmph, anyway, you won’t ever be someone of status!" Xiao Wanwan said.

"Hehe, may I ask the Sect Master’s wife her esteemed age? What is her alchemy-grade?" Dugu Qianye asked.

"Why should I tell you?" Xiao Wanwan said, "You’re not worthy of knowing!"

"Is that so?" Dugu Qianye looked at Xiao Wanwan’s face and said, "Xiao Wanwan, wife of the Alchemist Sect Master, currently six hundred thirty-one years old, an Advance Level twelve-grade Alchemist. At one hundred fifty, you married the Sect Master, and before your marriage you were nothing more than the daughter of an Alchemist Family. Is that correct?"

"How do you know that?" Xiao Wanwan asked.

"The Sect Master’s wife needn’t trouble herself with that," Dugu Qianye leaned back in his chair and continued, "Madam, I’m only twenty-five years old this year, I haven’t even lived as long as one of your minor fractions of age. How can you be so sure that I won’t surpass you? Or do you mean to say that status doesn’t matter when you married the Sect Master, but when the Green Emperor seeks a master, the other party’s status must be considered suitable?"

"Presumptuous!" Xiao Wanwan, infuriated by Dugu Qianye’s words, stood up from her chair, her face flushed and her neck thickening.

"Presumptuous? I’m merely speaking the truth; how has that become presumptuous?!" Dugu Qianye said.

Xiahou Chun held Xiao Wanwan back, looking at Dugu Qianye, he said, "You’re only twenty-five? What’s your grade now?"

"I’ve just broken through to the eleventh grade recently." Xiahou Chun still had some rational thought, and Dugu Qianye spoke to him properly. "Originally, I had no intention of taking the Green Emperor as a disciple. I’ve always considered him a good friend, but I didn’t expect to see him tortured to his current state when we met again. It has made me disagree with both the Sect Master and the Sect Master’s wife’s way of thinking. That’s why I came to reason things out with you both."
