Chapter 1592: Chapter 1585: Mentor for Affairs to Come

"Hey!" The overreaction of the man in black caused tension among the Advance Team; Hu Daoke and Baiyue raised their guns again.

"Listen, although this is a domestic issue of yours, I won’t allow you to hit a woman in front of us," Tangmo said angrily.

"Who are you?" The man in black, with a sinister gaze, cautiously asked as he stared at Tangmo and the others.

"My lord, they are our benefactors; they are the ones who rescued Luo Er and Die Er," Fei Yu clumsily climbed up from the ground, knelt beside the man in black, covering her face with one hand and pulling on the sleeve of his clothes with the other as she explained.

"Benefactors..." Fei Yu’s words seemed to provoke the man in black again, as he furiously grabbed her hair and cursed through gritted teeth, "I told you to stay home and look after them; what have you done? Why did Yang Er, Luo Er, and Die Er all go missing? Is this how you watch over the children? Is this how you mother them? Do you also want them to follow in Yun Er’s footsteps?"

"I’m sorry, my lord... I’m sorry... I’m so sorry..." Fei Yu was speechless, sobbing with her head lowered.

"Dad, daddy, don’t hit mom... It’s my fault, it’s all my fault..." Ah Yang gently tugged at the sleeve of the man in black, timidly soothing him with his words.

The man in black’s eyes shone with ferocity, but as soon as his gaze focused on Ah Yang, the fierceness diminished significantly. After closing his eyes and sinking into a brief contemplation, he released the force abruptly, letting go of Fei Yu’s hair, and she fell to the ground once more in weightlessness.

But Fei Yu did not breathe a sigh of relief from her newfound freedom; instead, she knelt again, kowtowing and pleading for the man in black’s forgiveness: "I’m sorry, my lord... I’m sorry... I’m truly sorry..."

"Huayu Ting, let’s talk this out. We mean no harm to your wife, and we will not interfere in your affairs," Cheng Ziang said calmly.

Upon hearing his words, Huayu Ting straightened his back, but suddenly a surge of intense pain overcame him, and he couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood. Clenching his teeth, he took off his hat, revealing his true face.

It was quite a handsome face, considered above average amongst the people of Kyushu. Different from the strikingly handsome beauty of Yichuan Long, Huayu Ting’s features were slightly feminine, but there was always a hint of severity in his brows and eyes.

Huayu Ting appeared to be in his twenties or thirties; Cheng Ziang was not sure, as Huayu Ting looked quite young-faced. However, considering that he had such grown children, his age must be greater.

"Nascent Soul, anomalies... You must be from the Saint Mission of the West, right?" Holding his chest, Huayu Ting asked wearily.

"Under the Saint’s command, the four spirits: Azure Dragon and White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise," Cheng Ziang introduced briefly.

"Heh, it seems it’s better to be late than never..." Huayu Ting sneered, shaking his head, "All the unfortunate events have come together."

"I didn’t expect you to actually be Ah Yang’s father; no wonder he was afraid to reveal your identity," Cheng Ziang said, narrowing his eyes.

"So what do you want, to report me? I am now powerless to resist, to kill or to flay is at your discretion," Huayu Ting said, spitting out blood-stained saliva.

"Please, don’t hurt my lord. If there is anything, take it out on us, don’t hurt my lord..." Fei Yu crawled frantically to the forefront of Huayu Ting, kneeling before everyone and pleading.

"Brother, please don’t let anyone know about my father’s affairs," Ah Yang also knelt down, tears in his eyes, begging alongside Fei Yu.

"Get away from me!" Seeing Fei Yu’s actions, Huayu Ting suddenly flew into a rage, grabbing her hair again and pulling her to the side. Caught off guard, Fei Yu stumbled to the ground, lying there, crying bitterly.

"Take it out on me if you have a problem, don’t lower yourself to the level of women," Huayu Ting stepped forward, saying coldly.

"You’re a man, but you should be more gentle with your wife, even in front of others, it’s not right to be violent just to distance oneself," Cheng Ziang said.

"What do you want?" Huayu Ting took a deep breath and asked.

"We have no interest in your marital issues and do not intend to interfere. You two may live your lives as you please; we will not interfere nor make it public, you can be assured," Cheng Ziang stated.

"Do you think I will believe you?" Huayu Ting asked, squinting his eyes.

"Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant; we come from the West Outer Heaven, and to us, as long as there is love, anyone being together is normal. We don’t think the Demon Clan are born less than people of Kyushu and cannot marry them. If you think we’re also prejudiced like the Kyushu people, then I must say your view is rather narrow-minded," Cheng Ziang said with righteous indignation.

After listening to Cheng Ziang’s words, Huayu Ting lowered his head and pondered for a long while. When he raised his head again, his eyes were visibly softer, no longer as tyrannical as before.

"You just took a hit, are you alright?" Cheng Ziang asked with concern.

"A minor issue." Huayu Ting said with a skeptical look, remaining silent for quite a while before responding.

"I still have to thank you for sparing my life." He paused, then continued.

"No need to thank me, actually I didn’t really control my strength well, you’re just lucky." Cheng Ziang shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Let’s go, let’s talk inside the house. This is not a place for conversation." Huayu Ting said, struggling to stand upright, but still bent over due to the intense pain in his body.

"Daddy, daddy, are you alright?" Huayu Luo and Xiao Die ran over, asking with concerned faces.

"I’m fine..." Huayu Ting shook his head, always speaking softly to the children.

"Yun, Yang, Luo, Die... If they are all Huayu Ting’s children, then they should all have the surname Huayu..." Tangmo mumbled to himself, staring at Huayu Ting and the children crowding around him.

"Huayu Yun, Huayu Yang, Huayu Luo, and Huayu Die... these names are really quite nice." Tangmo muttered to himself, nodding repeatedly.

"It’s amazing that Ah Yang, even at such a young age, can keep information from his father a secret." Cheng Ziang couldn’t help but admire as he watched Huayu Ting and Huayu Yang.

However, his words didn’t elicit any response from Huayu Ting; upon hearing his words, Huayu Ting’s expression became even more downcast, and not just him, the three children and Fei Yu all showed the same expression.

"What’s wrong, did I say something wrong?" Cheng Ziang blinked, asking in confusion.

"Ignorance is not a sin..." Huayu Ting sighed deeply and shook his head.

"Ziang," Tangmo pulled Cheng Ziang aside, and said seriously, "tell me about what you guys saw and gained, I’ll summarize the whole incident."

"Okay," Cheng Ziang nodded and then roughly explained his own experience. But it was not clear whether it was intentional or not, he completely skipped over the episode with Ah Si, as if she never existed at all.

"Hey, Old Cheng..." Just after Cheng Ziang finished speaking, Hu Daoke’s surprised voice came from behind.

"What’s wrong?" He turned around, asking with confusion.

"When did you find your gun? Wasn’t it lost?" Hu Daoke pointed at the Yuanzi pistol at his waist, asking in astonishment.

"What kind of question is that? If the gun was dropped, just pick it up, what’s so strange about that?" Cheng Ziang said matter-of-factly.

"Are you really foolish or just pretending to be?" Hu Daoke was even more astonished after hearing his words.

"Speak clearly, what are you so surprised about?" Cheng Ziang still had a completely clueless expression.

"Big brother, you lost your gun back when we were at Lingyun Government, it was stolen, don’t you remember?" Hu Daoke widened his eyes interrogatively.

"At, at Lingyun Government it was stolen..." Cheng Ziang’s head started to hurt as he blinked, trying hard to think of any clues in his mind, "Then, how did I...?"

"You didn’t run into that woman again, did you?" Hu Daoke asked.

"Woman, which woman?" Cheng Ziang asked blankly.

"Ah Si!" Hu Daoke said after thinking.

"Right, right, Ah Si, ahh..." Cheng Ziang slapped his own head in annoyance, angrily said, "I’ve been tricked by her again, I was supposed to remember her, how could this be!"

"You and her..." Hu Daoke hesitantly asked.

"Me and her... wait, who did I just hand Ah Yang to, I left him with her, right?" Cheng Ziang said, then, suddenly excited, he ran towards Huayu Yang.
