As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills Chapter 992

992 Chapter 992

Perhaps they would only know the answer after they settled down.

Greed flashed in his eyes.

A condition that could catch the eye of the old madam of the Shang family would be of great use to the Lin family.

“I know, Father. When we kill Jiu Zhu and that person, we might even reap some unexpected rewards!”

Lin Siqing also understood this, and his smile deepened.

Killing two people and obtaining two benefits would be amazing.

At the Shang family’s residence, the old madam sat on the main seat and gestured for Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan to sit down quickly.

The two of them did as she said.

“Sirs, please stay in the Shang family, the Shang family’s residence is just as good as the Lin family’s.”

The old madam patted the cane in her hand and stared at Jiang Ming.

There was a hint of greed in her eyes, which made Jiang Ming feel uncomfortable, so he stood up.

The old madam of the Shang family thought that he wanted to familiarize himself with the environment of the Shang residence, so she called the manservant to bring Jiang Ming around.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Ming agreed and Sikong Wuyuan followed him.

Before he left, someone came in from outside.

“Grandma, you’re finally back.”

The voice was loud and lively, and a round face appeared in front of Jiang Ming and the others.

The girl smiled, and the dimples on her cheeks deepened.

“Lele!”

The old madam’s face instantly became softer. Shang Lele casually sat beside her, and she smiled again.

“Grandma, I missed you so much!”

Shang Lele hugged the old madam’s arm and looked up at Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan.

“Grandma, who are these two?”

“These two are the Shang family’s honored guests. Let them introduce them to you.”

The old madam grinned. This was the first time she had been so happy.

Shang Lele was suspicious of her grandmother’s att.i.tude. When she heard Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan’s introduction, she could not help but be stunned.

She did not know Jiang Ming, but Sikong Wuyuan was very familiar with her.

“I remember that you stayed in a temple before. I think I went to offer incense.”

Shang Lele smiled, her eyes s.h.i.+ning.

“What a coincidence. I’m almost done with secularism now.”

Sikong Wuyuan was polite, but he did not remember that he had helped Shang Lele before.

Jiang Ming observed the surrounding buildings and made casual conversation.

Suddenly, the maidservant ran over in a hurry, her eyes filled with tears.

“The Shang family leader, that old man ran away!”

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone suddenly knelt down.

“We didn’t handle things properly. Please forgive us.”

With Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan around, the old madam could not get angry. She continued to smile. “How can I be angry with you guys? Hurry up and bring him back.”

“The Shang family leader … We can’t trace him anymore.”

Everyone looked at each other and swallowed their saliva.

This old man was extremely important to the old madam of the Shang family. They had made such a huge mistake. So, they would definitely be punished.

As expected, the old madam’s face instantly darkened. She raised her hand and slapped the maidservant, sending her flying.

“What are you doing? You can’t even take care of a person. Get lost, you bunch of good-for-nothings!”

She lowered her voice, and the pressure in her body began to acc.u.mulate.

“Grandma,” Shang Lele said comfortingly. “I think we should let the new guests try to find him. I think they are very powerful.”

As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Jiang Ming and Sikong Wuyuan.

Seeing that they seemed reluctant, she pretended to be pitiful. “My Lords, I know you don’t want to go. However, this old man is fierce. My family really can’t handle him.”

Her thoughts were simple.

She wanted to know the reason why these two people were valued by the old madam.

Jiang Ming glanced at Shang Lele and met her eyes.

Her eyes were deep and serene. One could get lost in them.

“Lord Jiu Zhu, is there an issue?”

She pretended to smile and continued to ask.

“Lele, this is an important guest. You can’t order him around.”

The old madam patted the back of her granddaughter’s hand, her smile stiff.

This was the first time she had seen her granddaughter being so rude. She could have thrown a tantrum before.

It was really inappropriate for her to be like this.

Sikong Wuyuan frowned.

Why did he feel that Shang Lele was making things difficult for them?

Since they had met before, they felt like old acquaintances. Why was Shang Lele still making things difficult for them?

“Grandma, this is my problem.”

Shang Lele was reluctant, but she did not know what to say.

Sikong Wuyuan casually looked around and inadvertently glanced at the blue and white porcelain on the shelf.

The pattern of the blue and white porcelain was very special. There were even some golden details on the edges.

It was clearly a little special, and he could not help but go forward and raise his hand to touch the porcelain.

A rough feeling a.s.saulted him, and he was shocked.

Why was this blue and white porcelain so strange?

“Lord Sikong Wuyuan, that blue and white porcelain cannot be touched.”

Shang Lele looked at him with a serious expression. There was a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes.

This move would cost her a lot of money.

However, the Shang family’s old madam did not have any negative feelings at all. Instead, she continued to smile. “If you like it, you can take it.”

Shang Lele could not help but be surprised by this.

She lost her composure for the first time.

“Grandma, isn’t that your most precious porcelain vase?”

She looked at Sikong Wuyuan with curiosity in her eyes.

She found it strange that this ordinary-looking monk made people pay so much attention to him.

Sikong Wuyuan did not expect the old madam to speak like this, he waved his hand and said, “No need.”

However, he complained internally.

This reaction was too bizarre.

According to Shang Lele, this vase was not something that could be touched. If they touched it, they would receive a cruel punishment.

But now, they could touch it. This was simply ridiculous.

Jiang Ming pulled Sikong Wuyuan down. “We were rude just now. Please don’t be angry.”

The old madam waved her hand.

“This is nothing. You can take whatever you want.”

“Grandma, what’s wrong? Why do you seem different from before?” Shang Lele exclaimed. “Grandma, did something happen to you?”

“Silly child, what can happen to me? Hurry up and settle the old master’s matter. Don’t let him escape!”

The old madam’s expression suddenly became serious. She could not stand up, and she fell back.

Shang Lele quickly caught her, but she realized that she could not even hold her cane.

“What’s going on?”

She immediately panicked and quickly sent someone to find a doctor.

However, she was stopped by Jiang Ming.

“If you go to the doctor now, your grandmother will die.”

“What do you mean by that?”
