Chapter 2585: Cannot Offend

“We can only become good friends with people like her, we cannot offend her.” The old man pondered, then he glanced at him and said: “You have to tell Tianyu to stop messing around. Such a person has a limitless future and cannot be offended.”

Upon hearing this, the City Lord swallowed and responded hurriedly: “Yes Father, I understand.”

“Ugh!”

The old man sighed: “If Tianyu hadn’t had a conflict with her first, we could have tried to get Tianyu to pursue her and see if we can turn her into a member of our Ling Family. That will definitely be a big help to our Ling Family, but unfortunately…” He shook his head with a look of regret.

When the City Lord heard this, his heart moved slightly. He thought about his son nearly becoming Feng Jiu’s slave, even if he was willing to pursue her now, Feng Jiu would probably look down on him.

It was a pity. There were not many people whom his Father would praise like that, but unfortunately, the opportunity had slipped away.

The City Lord thought for a while, then asked: “Father, then when she leaves the library in three days, do we want to keep her for a while longer? Try to have a better relationship with her?”

“Since she is looking for the Immortal Ascension Ladder, why would she stay here for a long time? When she comes out of the library, I assume she will bid goodbye directly.” The old man spoke slowly. He paused, then he said: “As long as you are not forceful about anything and don’t offend her, that will be fine.”

“Then the Immortal Ascension Ladder…” He glanced at his father cautiously and asked: “Should we tell her where the Immortal Ascension Ladder is located?”

Upon hearing those words, the old man’s eyes moved slightly and he said: “If she is fated with the Immortal Ascension Ladder, she will find it. What’s more, I couldn’t climb the Immortal Ascension Ladder back then, given her young age, so what if she were to find it?”

“Yes, son understands. Son will go back first.” The City Lord bowed before he retreated.

After watching him leave, the old man turned around and went back inside and continued cultivating.

As for the City Lord, who had come out from the back mountain, he walked to the main courtyard and met his son halfway there. When he saw him standing there, he said solemnly: “Didn’t I tell you to cultivate? Why have you run out again?”

“Father, have you gone to see Grandfather? Why did you go to see Grandfather? Was it to do with Feng Jiu?” Ling Tianyu looked at him and asked, as soon as he had opened his mouth, he had struck straight to the point.

The City Lord glanced at him and said: “Yes, I went to see your Grandfather and I told him about the trouble you have created recently. I was just about to go to your courtyard, but since you are here, I’ll tell you that your Grandfather has ordered you not to offend Feng Jiu again. She is not someone you want to offend.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Tianyu frowned: “Why? Could it be that Father and Grandfather are afraid of a mere kid?”

“You only need to do as you have been instructed by your elders. You should know that we won’t harm you!” He said in a calm voice: “Go back! Remember what I said to you” As soon as he had spoken, he walked away.

As he watched his father walk away with his hands behind his back, Ling Tianyu’s eyes were filled with doubt. His heart moved slightly and he thought to himself: What the hell was going on with that kid? It would have been fine if it had only his Father who had told him that, but why would his Grandfather have said that too?

Feng Jiu was in the library, and his Father had specific orders to leave her alone, so he went back to his courtyard first.

In the library of the City Lord’s Manor, Feng Jiu was searching for information, and a day passed just like this…
