How Does Everyone Know My Grandpa?
Inside the main hall of the Starfall Pavilion, a few minutes later, after Xiao Lin finished listening to the conversation between Xiao Yan and the others, he couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.
Alright, alright, he thought the enemies of the Starfall Pavilion had come knocking on their door.
It turns out he caused this misunderstanding himself!
He was saying that the atmosphere inside the hall felt strange before he even entered.
Now all the questions have been answered.
"Ha ha!"
After hearing Xiao Yan and the others' explanation, Xiao Lin burst into laughter.
"Grandpa, please stop laughing. Who would have thought it really was you? Besides, we can't be blamed for misunderstanding. Don't you think there's something wrong with the message you had Mu Qingluan deliver?"
Hearing his grandfather's laughter, Xiao Yan couldn't help but complain.
Who's the kind person who asked someone to pass on a message? It's something like, "Your grandfather's here!"
To him, wasn't this blatant provocation?
"Yes, Grandpa Xiao, I was just wondering who was so arrogant as to provoke Xiao Yan in your name, but it turns out it really is you..."
Xiao Yi Xian chimed in at this moment.
Remembering her earlier words about poisoning Grandpa Xiao, Xiao Yi Xian's face flashed with embarrassment.
However, Xiao Yi Xian was also quite curious as to why Xiao Yan's grandfather would come to the Starfall Pavilion under his original identity.
Surely it's not to take me back with them?
Or could it directly lead to a further relationship between her and Xiao Yan?
Xiao Yi Xian's mind began to wander into wild fantasies.
"Xiao Lin, it's really not Xiao Yan's or our fault. It's just that you had that girl Mu Qingluan relay the message..."
Even the Yao Lao couldn't help but complain at this moment.
Meanwhile, Heavenly Fire Venerable Feng Xian, who were previously unaware of Xiao Lin's identity, now know that Xiao Lin is Xiao Yan's biological grandfather.
As for Mu Qingluan, although she also knew about it, she still had the task of patrolling the Heavenly Star Mountain Range, so she had already left the main hall.
Of course, this matter could also become a topic of conversation between her and the other disciples of the Starfall Pavilion.
However, as Xiao Yi Xian and Yao Lao spoke one after another, Xiao Yan seemed to finally realize something.
"Huh? Wait a minute! Teacher, Xiao Yi Xian, you both know my grandfather?"
Xiao Yan, realizing what was happening, looked at the two of them with a surprised expression.
He remembered that his teacher had never appeared in front of his grandfather.
So, in that case...
At this moment, the Yao Lao and the Xiao Yi Xian exchanged a glance, clearly surprised that the other knew Xiao Lin.
Then, it was Yao Lao who spoke first.
Now that Xiao Lin himself had come to the Starfall Pavilion, Yao Lao felt there was no need to hide it anymore.
"Xiao Yan, when you first found out I hid it in that Storage Ring, didn't you suspect that your grandfather already knew the truth and deliberately sent that Storage Ring to you?"
The Yao Lao glanced at Xiao Lin first, and seeing that he had no other reaction, he asked Xiao Yan with a half-smile.
Sure enough, as Yao Lao began to speak, Xiao Yan also fell into memories.
Looking back, there really was such a thing!
Okay, now it's finally confirmed.
I was tricked by my unscrupulous grandfather and the Yao Lao!
He was wondering why his grandfather had suddenly given him a High-Rank Storage Ring.
So, is the whole point of this relationship to have Yao Lao) train you?
After the truth came out, Xiao Yan felt a little wronged.
However, Xiao Yan himself knew that, in reality, this matter was definitely a great thing for him!
After all, if he had cultivated normally, he might not have achieved what he has today.
Even so, Xiao Yan still looked at his grandfather with a resentful gaze.
"What's wrong? Xiao Yan, are you feeling unwell?"
Meeting Xiao Yan's gaze, Xiao Lin asked with amusement.
When his grandfather asked, Xiao Yan still had a resentful expression on his face, but he shook his head.
"I'm not exactly uncomfortable, but I feel like I've been really messed up by you, Grandpa, and the teacher!"
Xiao Yan told the truth.
In fact, looking back now, Xiao Yan himself knows how "terrible" his personality was back then.
If I hadn't gone through that experience, who knows what kind of person I would be now?
Even Xiao Yan himself now thinks his personality was terrible back then, so you can imagine what kind of person he was at the beginning of his Xiao Yan.
While he might not be a bad person, he is at least described as having a cold personality and weak family ties.
"Xiao Yan, actually your grandfather sensed the problem with you back then, which is why he entrusted you to me! Now it seems your grandfather was indeed prescient!"
At this moment, the Yao Lao spoke up for Xiao Lin while remarking with emotion.
"I know that, teacher! So, I'm really grateful for the decision you and Grandpa made back then!"
After wiping away the slightly aggrieved expression on his face, Xiao Yan spoke with utmost sincerity.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin and Yao Lao exchanged a glance and then smiled with satisfaction.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yan turned his gaze to Xiao Yi Xian.
"Xiao Yi Xian, what about you? How did you meet my grandfather?"
If he already had some suspicions about whether his grandfather and teacher had planned this all along, then he truly had no clue about how Xiao Yi Xian and his grandfather met.
"Huh? Me?"
Xiao Yi Xian was still thinking of reasons in her mind...
After all, her situation can't be discussed openly!
Leaving aside her conversation with Grandpa Xiao in Green Mountain Town, she also couldn't tell Xiao Yan about her reunion with Grandpa Xiao at the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace after arriving in Central Plains!
Therefore, for a moment, Xiao Yi Xian was also at a loss.
Fortunately, Xiao Lin came to Xiao Yi Xian's rescue at this moment.
"Let me tell you about this. I used to love Sightseeing, right? By chance, I met Xiao Yi Xian in Green Mountain Town of our Jia Ma Empire."
At the time, Xiao Yi Xian thought I was an Old Beggar, and she brought me water and food.
That's how we got to know each other.
Of course, it was I who later suggested that Xiao Yi Xian go to the Cloud Empire for training.
Xiao Lin stopped there, without explaining much more.
But Xiao Yan probably already knew what had happened.
Considering Xiao Yi Xian's kindness, Xiao Yan felt that this was quite reasonable!
"Speaking of which, where is Nalan Yanran? She should have been following you ever since she came to Central Plains, right? Why haven't we seen her? Did you do something to upset her, Xiao Yan?"
To avoid Xiao Yan pressing further, Xiao Lin changed the subject at this opportune moment.
Of course, this was indeed what Xiao Lin genuinely wanted to ask.
He had just returned from the Northwest Continent and came to the Starfall Pavilion, unaware that Nalan Yanran had already left.
