Chapter 2188: Ancestor Minghe Has a Terrible Temper!

~3 min read 571 words

Hao Tian and Yao Chi arrived with Taishang Laojun and two young immortals, at which point Ancestor Minghe was calmly sipping tea.

As soon as Taishang Laojun arrived, Ancestor Minghe swiftly hurled a teacup at him.

"Crash!"

The sound startled the two young immortals beside him, as well as Yao Chi and Hao Tian.

Taishang Laojun smiled and said, "Minghe, you've frightened my young immortals—speak up, what compensation do you owe me?"

"You want me to compensate you? You've given my things to others, and now you want me to compensate you? Hand over half of all the elixirs you've forged!"

"So you've come to demand justice."

Taishang Laojun burst into laughter, and Ancestor Minghe's expression softened considerably.

"You two, leave."

The young immortals immediately felt as if freed from prison and departed at once; Hao Tian and Yao Chi exchanged a glance, then returned to their own places to stand by and serve.

The matters Ancestor Minghe and Taishang Laojun discussed were not meant for others to hear, but Hao Tian and Yao Chi were different.

They were both disciples of Ancestor Hongjun.

Ancestor Hongjun had once shared wine and conversation with them, so there was no cause for concern.

"I truly regret the matter of the Qiankun Cauldron, but Luo Fu Shengren has set his eyes on it—we could not stop him if he wanted it…"

"Bullshit!"

"The Qiankun Cauldron was placed by me in that clear spring on Penglai Immortal Island for nearly a thousand years—it was brewed by me, and absolutely cannot be taken by the Wu Clan!"

Ancestor Minghe was furious.

Had it not been for the aura Luo Fu revealed and the signal left by Taishang Laojun, he would never have suppressed his rage and left Penglai Immortal Island.

Thinking of this, Ancestor Minghe hurled another teacup—luckily, Taishang Laojun caught it.

Hao Tian's heart rose again.

Those were Ancestor Hongjun's favorite teacups—if he emerged from seclusion to find them broken, he would scold both Hao Tian and Yao Chi; Hao Tian felt like crying but kept his face expressionless.

Yao Chi was wondering what they were doing.

Was it because of the ZaoHua Jade Disc?

If they were putting on a show before her because of the ZaoHua Jade Disc, she would not hand it over.

Still, she said nothing, for what they themselves had done was limited, and the issue was not serious.

Arrangements could naturally be made; they had already prepared everything else.

Taishang Laojun and Ancestor Minghe spoke at length, yet revealed little about Luo Fu's affairs, for they did not fully understand Luo Fu's strength.

"The Wu Clan and the Yao Clan are on the brink of war!"

"This time, the Yao Clan has lost the people's hearts—even within the Yao Clan, resentment runs deep; they have no chance of victory."

Upon hearing this, Ancestor Minghe became even more certain: the Qiankun Cauldron must not be handed over to the Wu Clan.

"The Qiankun Cauldron must be reclaimed!"

"Luo Fu will not let this go."

"Then let there be war!"

Ancestor Minghe had a violent temper—even Gui Che could not match it; when he flew into a rage, the entire Honghuang would tremble three times.

Taishang Laojun sighed—he knew Ancestor Minghe would never let this go.

But he had no choice; he had to first calm Ancestor Minghe, or else, if a battle broke out, he could not hold his ground.
