Qian Daoliu turned to look at the young Bibi Dong and found that her brow and eyes did indeed look similar to Angel Qian Renxue's.
Immediately, his expression twisted with rage, and he sent Qian Xunji flying with a backhanded slap.
"You unfilial son!"
"You beast! You beast!"
Before Qian Xunji could react, Qian Daoliu pinned him down and pummeled him again. This time, his blows were even heavier than before, beating Qian Xunji until blood spurted from his mouth.
"How old is Bibi Dong, for heaven's sake!"
"She's even your disciple! You beast! I'll fucking beat you to death today! You beast!"
Blood sprayed from Qian Xunji's mouth under the beating, and he seemed to see his late great-grandmother beckoning to him.
"Aargh! I'm not! I didn't!"
"She's slandering me! Aargh!"
Qian Xunji screamed incessantly under the beating. Feeling that the old geezer seemed serious this time, he hurriedly called for help.
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle! Help me, quick!"
"Aargh! I never did it!"
"She's falsely accusing me! Aargh!"
Golden Crocodile and Azure Luan merely watched this time. Neither stepped forward to restrain Qian Daoliu, feeling that Qian Xunji really did deserve a beating.
Angel Qian Renxue had just said it herself: Qian Xunji was her father, and Bibi Dong was her mother.
Could that possibly be false?
Golden Crocodile and Azure Luan knew Qian Xunji's character all too well. He could be said to be the polar opposite of their eldest brother.
Although Bibi Dong was still young, the girl was clearly a beauty in the making. She would certainly be beautiful when she grew up.
Who knew? Perhaps this brat Qian Xunji had lusted after her beauty in the future?
After all, Angel Qian Renxue was right beside them. She was Qian Xunji's future daughter, and with even his daughter saying so, they had no choice but to believe it.
Young Bibi Dong hid behind Yue Guan, utterly shaken now, her body trembling.
What did she mean, her teacher would do that to her in a secret chamber in the future?
She didn't want anything like that!
Girls matured relatively early in that respect. Besides, this was the Douluo Continent, so Bibi Dong naturally understood such things.
She had trusted her teacher deeply, but now, upon learning what happened in the future, she felt as though the sky had collapsed on the spot.
Qian Xunji's screams continued for a while. By the time Qian Daoliu stopped, he lay on the ground, unable to get back up.
His face had swollen like a pig's head, several bones in his body were cracked, and blood still flowed from his mouth.
Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, after all. Angry as Qian Daoliu was, he could not truly beat his son to death.
Looking down at Qian Xunji on the ground, he scolded him, his voice still angry, "You unfilial son! Do you acknowledge your wrongs?"
Qian Xunji wanted to cry. He felt impossibly wronged. He hadn't done any of these things!
What had he done wrong?
He hadn't done any of it, so what had he done wrong!
This old geezer was simply unreasonable!
Earlier, he had said Fang Yuan was his illegitimate son and beaten him up without another word.
Now, after hearing what his future daughter said, he had pinned him down and beaten him within an inch of his life again!
He was being pinned to the floor and scrubbed back and forth. What was he, a mop?
Besides, he hadn't done those things!
Qian Xunji felt terribly aggrieved. Thinking back over everything that had happened today, all he had wanted was to take on a disciple. How had things ended up like this?
Now he had taken a beating, lost face, and had his reputation sullied. And in the end, this disciple...
Even setting aside Fang Yuan's innate rank-thirty talent, now that the old geezer knew Angel Qian Renxue existed, he would certainly teach Fang Yuan himself.
Didn't that mean he couldn't even take him as his disciple?
Qian Xunji felt that his luck today had been utterly rotten. So he hadn't gained a disciple, had taken two beatings for nothing, and had lost both his dignity and his image?
No, he still had a disciple!
Qian Xunji thought of Bibi Dong. I have to salvage my image quickly. Otherwise, going by what my future daughter said, what kind of person would that make me?
In his heart, he was raising Bibi Dong as a daughter. He had never even thought of doing such a thing!
Forcing himself to endure the pain in his body, Qian Xunji turned his head, wanting to explain things to his disciple and make it clear that he absolutely had no such intentions.
Then he saw Bibi Dong take two steps back before hiding behind Yue Guan with terror in her eyes, looking afraid of him.
Qian Xunji: ???
Wait, my disciple, why are you backing away?
They don't believe your teacher, and now you don't either?
Just as Qian Xunji was questioning his entire existence, Qian Daoliu noticed his gaze and flew into a towering rage.
"You unfilial son! You still dare to threaten Dong'er with your eyes!"
Qian Xunji: ???
What was this old geezer talking about? He only wanted to explain things to his disciple. Was he not even allowed to look at her now?
Qian Daoliu felt he had still gone too easy on him. Otherwise, why was Qian Xunji still refusing to admit his wrongs?
Just as he was about to continue reasoning with Qian Xunji using his fists, Angel Qian Renxue spoke up to stop him.
"Grandpa, there's another reason behind this. Actually, Father can't take all the blame."
If Qian Daoliu kept beating him, Qian Xunji might end up crippled. Angel Qian Renxue could not stand by and watch.
At the sight of Qian Daoliu's fist, Qian Xunji had been panicking. Now, as though grasping at a life-saving straw, he hurriedly shouted.
"Old geezer! Did you hear that!"
"There's more to this! I told you I'm not that kind of person! Yet you wouldn't believe me!"
Qian Xunji felt so wronged that there seemed to be a sob in his voice now.
Smack!
With a flick of his hand, Qian Daoliu treated Qian Xunji to the resounding slap he so loved, his expression darkening.
"Shut up!"
"Even if Bibi Dong committed a crime as great as the heavens, even if she betrayed Spirit Hall in the future, that would still be no reason for you to force yourself on her!"
Hiding behind Yue Guan, young Bibi Dong was so frightened by these words that her legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed onto her backside.
She hurried out from behind Yue Guan and raised a hand in an oath-taking gesture, giving Qian Daoliu her assurance.
"Grandpa Qian, I swear on my Martial Soul that I will never betray Spirit Hall in this lifetime!"
As she spoke, Bibi Dong was so anxious that her forehead was drenched in sweat.
"If I break this oath, let my Martial Soul shatter and let me die with a sword through my chest!"
Qian Daoliu looked kindly at Bibi Dong. He, too, regarded the girl as his granddaughter, which was why he had beaten Qian Xunji so severely.
"Silly girl, why are you making such reckless oaths?"
Qian Daoliu gave a gentle smile as he spoke. "Grandpa was only using an example just now. Of course I believe you."
Angel Qian Renxue's expression turned odd at the sight. She thought it necessary to prepare him mentally.
"Grandpa, she really did betray Spirit Hall."
Qian Daoliu: "?"
Qian Daoliu's expression stiffened at those words, and the smile on his face gradually faded.
Golden Crocodile, Azure Luan, and the other worshippers all turned their gazes toward Bibi Dong, scrutiny in their eyes.
Bibi Dong was utterly shaken.
"I'm not! I didn't!"
Seeing all the grandpas looking at her, Bibi Dong dropped to her knees on the spot. "Grandpa Qian, I have no such intentions!"
As she spoke, Bibi Dong glared at Angel Qian Renxue.
"I just swore on my Martial Soul! There is absolutely no way I would betray Spirit Hall!"
"She's slandering me!"
How could this person be so wicked!
What daughter from the future? If she was setting her up like this, she had to be an enemy from the future!
She, Bibi Dong, would never acknowledge this daughter!
