C2602 Desire for Absence

"What?!" In response to the Holy Maiden's words, Granny Huo had actually come to invite this pair of beggars and their descendants?!

As the sound of Granny Huo's voice faded, the crowd in the inn all felt as though their glasses were about to drop onto the ground. At this moment, they all thought that there was something wrong with their ears. What they heard was just an illusion.

Not to mention them, even Lin Bai had been blown to bits. Although he had already felt that the background of these beggars and their grandchildren were definitely extraordinary, he did not expect them to be related to the Holy Daughter at the beginning of time.

What kind of background did this grandchild and grandchild have? At this moment, it was not only Lin Bai, but everyone in the restaurant was filled with the same doubts. They stared intently at the grandpa and grandson duo and wanted to see what was so different about them.

However, looking at the calm expression on the old beggar's face, it seemed that he had long expected something like this to happen. He didn't feel that it was strange at all. Not only him, even Su Su Su's little girl had a calm expression as if she had expected this.

However, what was different from the astonishment of the crowd was that at this moment, Yu Huan Feng felt as though his face had been scalded, as if someone had used a soldering iron. He really did not expect that the person Granny Fire had come to this restaurant to meet was not Yu Huan Feng, but rather this beggar grandchild.

What kind of status did he have? He was seen as a genius by the Yu Family and was even known as the Yu Family's Jade Tree. Even in the entire Immortal World, he was still considered one of the top geniuses. But today, his spirit had been taken away by Lin Bai, and now this beggar pair of a grandchild had taken away his limelight. This intense disparity had already caused him to be on the verge of collapse.

"Granny Huo, did I hear wrong? The Holy Maiden really does not want to see me, but rather wants to see this pair of beggars and their grandchildren. Yu Huan Feng was silent for a long time. He had a flustered and exasperated expression on his face. He used a questioning tone and asked Granny Fire in a low voice.

"Do you think the old woman is a joker?" When Granny Huo heard this, she let out a cold laugh and said in a mocking manner.

"How could this be?" Yu Huan Feng was on the verge of going crazy after hearing these words. He clenched his fists tightly as his eyes became as wide as bells and his breathing became ragged as a bull's pant. He said, "What kind of status does the Holy Maiden have? How can she meet someone like this?"

"Who are you? Who does the Holy Maiden want to meet? Can you decide?" As soon as she said this, Granny Fire's eyes turned cold as a killing intent flashed in the depths of her eyes. She looked at Yuhuang and said lightly: "If there is ever a chance, I would like to ask that old fogey from your Yu Family how the Yu Family fostered such a useless descendant."

Each and every word he uttered was like a heavy hammer that struck into Yu Huan Feng's heart, causing him to feel extremely dispirited. He was forced back several steps, his face burning as if he had been slapped in the face.

At this moment, he finally realized what a huge mistake he had made. Although Granny Huo was indeed a servant of the Holy Maiden, the Holy Maiden was raised by her and her emotions were comparable to a mother and daughter. Most importantly, Granny Huo was a Formless Stage expert. Even if he was a member of the Yu Family, how could he dare to act wantonly in front of such an expert?

"Asshole, didn't you hear me?" After reprimanding Huan Feng, Granny Huo turned her head slowly and looked at the beggar. She said lightly, "Do you still want me to capture you in front of the Holy Maiden?"

"Old Woman Huo, I haven't seen you in so many years. Why are you still like this? When have I ever said that I can't go …" After the beggar heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head. Then, he walked in front of Lin Bai, clasped his hands towards him, and said with a smile, "Boy, I owe you a banquet today. In the future, this old man will definitely drink and chat happily with you."

"Junior will definitely await your invitation, senior …" When Lin Bai heard this, he chuckled and nodded his head. However, he secretly cursed in his heart. This old beggar had an extraordinary background.

"There's too much gossip. I don't like waiting for people." Seeing this, Granny Fire revealed a look of displeasure. She frowned and shouted coldly before shifting her gaze onto Susu, "Little girl, go wash your face. Miss wants to see you, how can you be so slovenly?"

"She wants to see me, not me. Why would she want me to wash my face? If she wants me to wash my face, then she should do it!" However, Susu did not appreciate Granny Fire's kindness at all. She pouted her small mouth and said unwillingly.

"I've followed an old beggar like you for so long, you really have the same temper!" He suddenly raised his hand and pulled Su Su Su closer to his side. He did not care how the little girl resisted, as his five fingers were covered in the wine, and he wiped it off the dirt on the little girl's face. Then he smiled, "This is how a little girl should look like."

What a beautiful piece of jade! The moment the filth on Susu's face was removed, the eyes of the people inside the restaurant lit up. It was as if there was a faint light shining into the restaurant. After cleaning up the filth, Su Su's facial features were as delicate as a porcelain doll. She was carved into a piece of jade and had a pair of large watery eyes that were filled with spirituality.

"You old b * stard, I'm not done with you. When I grow up, I'll definitely wipe your face clean!" However, Su Su Su didn't appreciate Granny Huo's good intentions. She cried incessantly and even threatened Granny Fire.

"What a good little girl …" When Granny Fire heard this, she did not get angry, but laughed instead. She patted Susu's butt and laughed out loud, "Then I'll just wait for that old woman to come. I'll see if you have the ability to do so in the future!"

"Kid, I'll be taking my leave now. If it doesn't take long, we should have a chance to meet again. You can treat me to a drink at that time." With regards to the argument between Susu and Granny Fire, the beggar could only chuckle, before cupping his hands at Lin Bai and floating away.

The party of three, in a short period of time, swiftly disappeared before the eyes of everyone. From the start until now, it had been two hours. However, to the people in the restaurant, it was just a flash of time. Everything seemed as if it was a dream.

As he watched the three of them leave, Yu Huan Feng felt like his lungs were about to explode. He clenched his fists tightly, his face ashen, and from time to time, he would glare venomously at Lin Bai, as if Lin Bai was the one he blamed for everything.

Even now, they were still not sure if what they saw just now was an illusion or what had really happened. They didn't understand what kind of virtue or ability this bastard had to invite his grandsons and grandsons to meet with each other at the Holy Maiden's residence.

"Wishing Without Desire, always calling people beggars. Why does this name sound so familiar to me?"

While everyone was deep in thought, the slightly older people in the restaurant were all frowning, as if they had vaguely grasped something.

"Desire …" It was not just them, but Xia Fei, one of the few big gossips in the Celestial Realm, was frowning and deep in thought with a face of understanding. After pondering for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up with disbelief as he exclaimed, "No need to ask for anything, no desire at all! Heavens! I was actually begging the old senior to drink and eat at the same table!"

"A person without desire or desire is a person without desire. It's him. As expected, it's him. Other than this old senior who loves to laugh and be in the mortal realm, no one else would act like a beggar in front of others." It's just that I haven't heard news about this senior for more than ten years. I thought that he had already stepped into the dust, but never would I have expected that his mischievous heart still remained the same as before! "

"He is actually asking for the help of the old senior. This way, it will be able to explain why the Holy Maiden would meet with him!"

The moment Xia Fei's words came out, many people in the crowd cried out in surprise. Many of them were amazed, and their faces revealed looks of admiration, as if they couldn't hold back their admiration for a person without desire.

"What's going on?" Upon seeing the expression on the faces of the crowd, Lin Bai couldn't help but feel curious as well, as he questioned Xia Fei.

"Senior Mu doesn't know that this old senior is an extraordinary person from the Immortal World. He was clearly a Mastery Stage expert, yet he liked to show off his image as a beggar, doing what he did as he walked in the mortal world, laughing and cursing. Furthermore, there was a rumor in the Immortal World that the Great Saintess was actually brought to the Ten Thousand Beginning Paradise by the old senior, and has an extremely deep relationship with the old senior. "

When Xia Fei heard this, he explained with a chuckle to Lin Bai before sighing with emotion, "I never expected that I, Xia Fei, would actually be fortunate enough to be able to drink and chat merrily with such a rumored person in my life."

So that's how it was! Hearing Xia Fei's words, Lin Bai finally understood. He finally understood why the Holy Maiden would invite a beggar to meet her. It was because she was moved by her old friend's friendship, so it could be said that she was repaying the favor.

Only by being in a high position and not forgetting the relationship between an old friend could one be considered worthy of a higher opinion.

However, this answer also caused him to be a bit astonished. Even at this moment, he truly had no way of connecting the appearance of that beggar with the status of an expert who had attained great completion in the Non-Phase Realm. However, after some careful consideration, Lin Bai also felt relieved. It was probably only a Formless Stage powerhouse like him could avoid his pursuit.

"Brat, consider yourself lucky to be associated with a person like Senior Mo!" As Lin Bai sighed, the ashen-faced Yu Huan Feng, whose eyes were filled with blood-red rage, strode over. Gritting his teeth, he said, "For the sake of senior, I won't bother with you today. If we meet again in the future, things won't be so easy!"

Lin Bai smiled coldly and didn't say a word. For someone like Yu Huan Feng, he didn't care if he talked too much. As for this thing, if it wanted to find trouble with him, he could just let it be. Since there were too many people, he couldn't use his talisman brush to fight. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to survive. If he were to find him again, he would definitely bury him in a grave of death!
