Chapter 493 - An Overlooked Issue; Everybody Was Troubled 4

Cheng Biyuan, who had just finished his dinner and was about to return to his study, noticed Mo Xuanzun coming to visit him. He couldn鈥檛 help but was a little bit surprised and asked, 鈥淴uanzun, how come you are here?鈥?

鈥淔ather-in-law, your son-in-law has a question for you and hope that you would give him a straightforward answer!鈥?said Mo Xuanzun as he cupped his hands at Cheng Biyuan respectfully.

鈥淵ou...鈥?Hearing his words, Cheng Biyuan seemed to have thought of something and, nodding slightly, said, 鈥淎lright, why don鈥檛 you follow me?鈥?

鈥淵es, father-in-law!鈥?

The two of them walked inside of Cheng Biyuan鈥檚 study one after the other. After they have settled down, Cheng Biyuan asked, 鈥淲hat would you like to know, Zuanxun?鈥?

鈥渇ather-in-law, I have a feeling that the Cheng鈥檚 had run into some sort of trouble. Can you please share that with me? No matter what, I would like to be able to help in any ways that I can. I hope that father-in-law would not keep that from me.鈥?

鈥淥h, you. Have you asked Xiao Xiao about it yet?鈥?asked Cheng Biyuan.

Mo Xuanzun shook his head and said in a deep voice, 鈥淔ather-in-law, I could tell that Xiao Xiao was trying to come up with a solution. I didn鈥檛 ask her but I want to help.鈥?

鈥淲ell...鈥?Cheng Biyuan was stuck between a rock and a hard place. His daughter didn鈥檛 want it mentioned to anyone else. But the one in front of him wasn鈥檛 an outside. He was his son-in-law, which was like half a son to him. He was arguably a part of the family.

He pondered over it for a bit and started slowly, 鈥淎lright, I will share since you really wanted to know. Xiao Xiao thought about a very serious overlook on our part. Her idea was not to share with anyone else, but since you鈥檝e asked, I鈥檒l tell you. We ....鈥?

鈥淭hat was a pretty serious issue,鈥?said Mo Xuanzun solemnly after he had learned of the issue. Now he understood why Cheng Xiao Xiao seemed so distracted over dinner. There was, indeed, not an easy solution to this.

Cheng Biyuan looked resigned, 鈥淲e rushed into the decision of recruiting for disciples and hadn鈥檛 thought about this at all. Luckily Xiao Xiao recalled it now. If we had waited till after the disciples were here, that鈥檇 truly be a real embarrassment.鈥?

鈥淔ather-in-law, don鈥檛 worry. We will figure it out together.鈥?

鈥淭here鈥檚 not much we can do for the time being. Xiao Xiao鈥檚 idea was not to ask anyone else for help. We鈥檇 just have to wait for her and Little Yuteng to come up with something.鈥?

鈥淚 understand.鈥?

The weight of this matter weighted down on the two of them like a gigantic mountain and they weren鈥檛 in the mood to chitchat. Mo Xuanzun sat for a bit longer before he took off.

As soon as Mo Xuanzun returned to his guest quarter, he noticed that both Ancient Forefather and his master were still in the living room and haven鈥檛 turned in yet.

鈥淎ncient Forefather, Master!鈥?

Ancient Forefather nodded slightly and Mo Yuze, noticing that he didn鈥檛 look too well, couldn鈥檛 help but asked, 鈥淛un-er, what is the matter?鈥?

鈥淚t鈥檚 nothing, Master,鈥?replied Mo Xuanzun softly after he walked over and sat down next to his master.

Ancient Forefather glanced at his with his all-knowing look and said, 鈥淪omething going on with little Xiao Xiao?鈥?

鈥淎ncient Forefather...鈥?mzx was a little stunned. He hadn鈥檛 said anything yet.

Seemingly read his mind, Ancient Forefather said nonchalantly, 鈥淟ittle Xiao Xiao didn鈥檛 have a lot of appetite tonight and she was frowning and pursing her lips from time to time. There was probably something on her mind. Do you have any idea what it was all about, Little Xuanzun?鈥?

鈥淎ncient Forefather, I did just find out the crux of the issue from father-in-law.鈥?

Mo Xuanzun knew that he wouldn鈥檛 be able to keep it from Ancient Forefather so, with a wave of his arm, he set a boundary around them and shared the Cheng鈥檚 issue with them.

Ancient Forefather was still fine after hearing that but Mo Yuze couldn鈥檛 help but said, 鈥淭his was so small feat. If they don鈥檛 handle this well, Sacred Land Zhongyuan鈥檚 reputation would plummet.鈥
