Chapter 132 Grandfather?
Marquis Su Lie, with his white hair and imposing physique, coupled with his steel-like beard, truly resembled a majestic lion.
However, Su Lie did not look well; he reeked of alcohol and his eyes were bloodshot.
He lifted the soldier leader into the air and asked excitedly, "The Dragon Emperor's Pendant, is it really the Dragon Emperor's Pendant?"
The soldier leader, trembling, held up the jade pendant: "My lord, take a look, isn't this the Dragon Emperor's Pendant?"
Su Lie took the jade pendant with one hand and casually placed the soldier on the ground with the other.
He touched the dragon-shaped jade pendant, his hands trembling slightly: "It really is the Dragon Emperor's Pendant. It's Yuan'er. Yuan'er has returned!"
As he spoke, the old lion's eyes turned red: "Shan'er, your son is not dead, he has returned! As his father, I will not be ashamed to face you even in the afterlife!"
He gripped the jade pendant tightly in his hand and asked the soldier leader, "Where is Yuan'er? Where is he?"
Seeing that Marquis Shenwei was so nervous, the soldier leader did not dare to be negligent and quickly said, "I have ordered someone to bring the young master into the Marquis's mansion. He is in the main hall now. I have also sent someone to inform the Second Steward."
"Good, well done!" Su Lie patted the soldier leader on the shoulder: "You don't need to guard the gate anymore. Go directly to Tianmen and report to Wuming!"
"Tianmen Mansion?" The soldier was stunned for a long time. He never expected that he would be able to join Tianmen Mansion, which so many people dream of entering, just because of this. When he came to his senses, Su Lie was nowhere to be seen.
……
Meanwhile, Lin Fei was led directly to the reception hall of the Marquis of Shenwei's mansion by a group of soldiers.
A group of rough men were serving tea and water, asking him all sorts of questions about his well-being, making Lin Fei feel extremely uncomfortable. It took him a while to finally get rid of these overly enthusiastic men, and he sat alone in the lobby.
In the main hall of the Marquis of Shenwei's mansion, there hangs a mural depicting a fierce tiger. However, the tiger's expression is rather melancholic, and the entire painting evokes a sense of sorrow and the fading glory of a hero.
"Just like a fierce tiger lying in a desolate hill, concealing its claws and teeth and enduring hardship!" Lin Fei sighed as he looked at the painting.
As soon as Divine Might Marquis Su Lie stepped outside the main hall, he heard Lin Fei's voice, which made his heart tremble.
"Just like a fierce tiger lying in a desolate hill, hiding its claws and teeth to endure!" Su Lie muttered to himself, and suddenly became energetic, no longer showing any signs of the decadent look he had just had, reeking of alcohol and with bloodshot eyes.
"Hahaha, good lad, I didn't expect you to have some knowledge!" Su Lie strode into the hall and laughed loudly.
Divine Might Marquis, "The Wrathful Lion" Su Lie!
Although Lin Fei did not recognize this famous figure, upon seeing the old man in front of him, Lin Fei immediately recognized him as Marquis Shenwei, Su Lie.
There was no other reason than that the old man's domineering aura was so overwhelming that even his sworn brother, Xiang Boyue, seemed like the moon and stars in comparison.
"This junior greets Lord Su!" Lin Fei stood up and cupped his hands in greeting to Su Lie.
Although the soldiers called him "Young Master," he was still unsure of his relationship with the famous Marquis Shenwei.
If he were to make up some random name, it would arouse suspicion, so he simply explained frankly, "After I went up the mountain, I fell off a cliff and was seriously injured. I can't remember much about what happened before that."
Su Lie frowned at first, but then relaxed when he heard that Lin Fei had been injured.
He looked Lin Fei up and down, composed himself, and feigned indifference: "Who sent you to my residence?"
"It was Senior Yuan Yuanshan. He said that if I come to the capital, I should go directly to the Marquis's residence to avoid this calamity," Lin Fei replied truthfully.
"Yuan the Charlatan? How did you get involved with him again?" Su Lie sneered. "Is that guy still alive?"
Lin Fei was silent for a moment: "Senior Yuan has passed away recently. Before his death, he asked me to come to the Marquis's residence."
Su Lie also fell silent, and after a long while sighed, "I misspoke. The Yuan family's charlatans throughout the ages have never lived past fifty. I thought he still had a few years left to live. I never expected this!"
"Alright, alright. I'm not going to talk about it anymore!" Su Lie waved his hand and held up the dragon-shaped jade pendant: "Who gave you this?"
"It was given to me by my master, Daoist Yuanyi," Lin Fei replied. "It was given to me by my master before he went down the mountain."
"It's that little beast!" Su Lie gritted his teeth, seemingly very angry: "That little beast is living a carefree life. I thought he was long dead in the Taoist temple!"
Lin Fei had no idea what grudge the famous Marquis Shenwei had with his master, Yuanyi. Not wanting to interrupt, he could only stand silently to the side.
After cursing for a while, Su Lie suddenly asked, "How is that little beast now? Why didn't he send you back? He won't even let you see me?"
Thinking of his master's current situation, Lin Fei's eyes reddened: "I broke the sect rules and was expelled from the sect. My master... he broke the sect rules to save me. Now, he's probably suppressed in the Demon-Subduing Tower!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fei sensed an incredibly powerful aura rising from the hall.
The sheer power of this aura was unlike anything Lin Fei had ever witnessed, almost forcing him to his knees.
Su Lie's hair and beard bristled, making him look like an enraged lion: "That old bastard Yongcheng, he doesn't care about the monk's face or the Buddha's face! He actually dared to suppress my son under that damned Demon-Subduing Pagoda!"
"Master, he's your son, Marquis?" Lin Fei's jaw nearly dropped in astonishment. Judging from Su Lie's previous demeanor, he had assumed there was some grudge between him and his master, but he never expected that his master and Marquis Su Lie were actually father and son.
"Of course, that little beast has always been heartless and ungrateful, abandoning his father and the entire Su family to become a Taoist priest on Jade Emperor Mountain. If you weren't his nephew, why would that little beast risk breaking the sect rules to save you?" Su Lie snorted lightly, "That little beast does have some family affection after all, he still remembers his sister. It's not a waste of all the years I've taught him!"
Master Yuanyi is the son of Marquis Shenwei, and I am his nephew.
Isn't the Marquis Shenwei standing before me my maternal grandfather?
Since falling off the cliff and being reborn, Lin Fei has forgotten all his memories of his time at the foot of the mountain.
Unexpectedly, the famous Marquis Shenwei was actually his maternal grandfather, which left Lin Fei somewhat bewildered.
Looking at Lin Fei's appearance, Marquis Shenwei laughed and said, "It seems you've indeed forgotten what happened before. That's right, you are my grandson, born to my own daughter, the eldest prince of the Southern Tang royal family, whose real name is 'Li Longyuan'!"
