Rebirth of the Cultivation Devil-Chapter 1264 - 1189: Who Is Fang Lan?

The Fang family is a major clan in Jiangdong, but looking across Huaxia, they’re not particularly noteworthy.

It’s undeniable that the Zhang family is indeed powerful enough, with no interest in marrying into other families to strengthen themselves. Their choice of the Fang family is largely because the Fang family is a scholarly family with cultural heritage.

"Fang Lun, you and I have been old friends for many years. Rest assured, on your seventieth birthday, our Zhang family has prepared a great gift. Although it can’t completely eradicate your chronic illness, it can suppress it for a few years."

Zhang Beishan smiled calmly and then spoke loudly.

When these words were spoken, not only Fang Lun but also the core members of the Fang family around him were shocked. The gift from the Zhang family could suppress the old man’s chronic illness, implying it was certainly a precious elixir.

Given the timing of the two families’ marriage alliance, there is no doubt this is an exceptional elixir!

The true elixir was something these Fang family members had never seen before. It’s said there is a Martial Artist Sect in Jiangdong whose Alchemy Technique is of the highest caliber in Huaxia.

The elixir sent by the Zhang family might have been acquired from the legendary Hundred Herbs Hall, a priceless treasure!

"Thank you, Brother Zhang!"

Fang Lun cupped his hands with a hint of excitement. He was aware of his own health; the chronic illness had persisted, making his body weak. The Zhang family’s elixir would be a significant help to his health.

"Fang Lun, I’ve brought Qixing too. Shouldn’t I meet your family’s Heavenly Pride now?" Zhang Beishan smiled.

Fang Lun’s expression showed a hint of difficulty.

"Fang Lun, what’s wrong?" Zhang Beishan asked, frowning.

"It’s nothing, bring Qingqing up quickly." Fang Lun smiled to cover his difficulty, then waved his hand.

Actually, he had another thought in his mind, but he dared not speak it out. He wanted to introduce another person to Zhang Qixing.

His granddaughter, Shui Yiyi, was graceful and delicate, exceptionally beautiful.

He felt he owed Shui Yiyi a lot. If he hadn’t cast Shui Yiyi’s mother out long ago, she and her daughter wouldn’t have suffered so much.

Fortunately, he had already learned Shui Yiyi’s whereabouts, so this time, he specifically called Wan Tao to bring Shui Yiyi to the Fang family.

Fang Lun wanted to make amends to Shui Yiyi, and there was a slight thought in his mind to introduce Shui Yiyi to Zhang Qixing. With Shui Yiyi’s appearance, she certainly matched Zhang Qixing.

But Fang Lun didn’t have time to speak up.

Suddenly, accompanied by two girls in cheongsams, a woman in red gracefully walked out. This woman was dressed in red, with fair and smooth skin like jade.

Fang Qingqing stepped forward, slightly bowing to Zhang Beishan, sweetly calling out, "Grandpa Zhang."

After speaking, Fang Qingqing sneaked a glance at Zhang Qixing. His expression was cold and as calm as an ancient well, causing Fang Qingqing’s charming face to blush slightly, as she lowered her head.

Her heart fluttered slightly; Zhang Qixing’s features were handsome and poised, reputed as a prodigious Martial Arts Genius, which inevitably enthralled Fang Qingqing.

"Hmm, not bad."

Zhang Beishan nodded with satisfaction. The lady from the Fang family was gentle and sensible, with not only outstanding looks but a remarkable demeanor, fitting as a bride for their Zhang family son.

However, Zhang Qixing’s face was calm; it was uncertain whether he was naturally this composed or indifferent to Fang Qingqing.

"Then let’s decide it this way. I’m quite pleased with Qingqing. After your seventieth birthday, we’ll proceed to discuss their marriage." Zhang Beishan waved his hand, almost deciding it on the spot.

With Zhang Beishan’s status in the Zhang family, he indeed had such authority.

Fang Qingqing lowered her head further, her charming face tinged with a flush of embarrassment.

The Fang family showed expressions of joy. If Fang Qingqing truly married into the Zhang family, needless to say, the Fang family’s status would soar, potentially comparable to those prominent families in Yanjing.

"Master, it’s not good; there’s a fight at the gate." At this moment, someone appearing to be a servant ran in.

Fang Lun’s brow furrowed suddenly; they had just finalized Zhang Qixing and Fang Qingqing’s marriage, and now a servant rushed in with bad news — it was too ominous.

Even Zhang Beishan frowned slightly.

Fang Lun calmly but angrily said, "What’s going on? Our Fang family is a scholarly family, yet you’re so flustered. Whatever it is, speak slowly!"

"Master, it’s like this: there’s a woman with a young man and a child, claiming to be your granddaughter, wanting to visit. Young Master Wei stopped them, demanding they prove their identities, but not only did they ignore him, the child directly beat Young Master Wei. When our security tried to intervene, none of them were any match!"

The servant was smart, knowing there were Zhang family members present, promptly altering the story slightly, omitting Young Master Wei’s flirtatious action, and pinning all the blame on the other party.

"What? Fang Wei was beaten!"

Suddenly, an elder smacked the table and stood up. He was the third elder of the Fang family and Fang Wei’s grandfather. Hearing his grandson was beaten at the mansion’s entrance, he couldn’t hold back.

"Third brother, calm down." Fang Lun waved his hand, stopping the impulsive third elder. "You say this woman claims to be my granddaughter?"

His heart jolted; could it be Shui Yiyi had arrived? Only Shui Yiyi was unrecognizable to the Fang family, but who was the young man?

Could it be his granddaughter was married?

And the child, perhaps not Shui Yiyi’s child?

Fang Lun’s heart surged, quickly asking, "What traits did the woman have? Did she say anything else?"

"The woman is exceptionally beautiful, the most graceful in my years. Her demeanor is gentle as jade, quite like an official from Jiangnan Water Town," the servant quickly replied, then suddenly added:

"Yes, she mentioned her mother is named Fang Lan!"

"Fang Lan?"

Fang Lun was hit as if by lightning, stunned on the spot.

Not only Fang Lun, but the elder members of the Fang family seated were shocked. The younger generation might not know, but these elder members couldn’t forget Fang Lan.

"Who is Fang Lan?"

"That woman claims the grandpa is her maternal grandfather. Her mother should be the patriarch’s daughter; how have we never heard of her?"

"Definitely false. Trying to deceive our Fang family and daring to beat our people — truly reckless."

The younger generation immediately started discussing. They had never heard of anyone named Fang Lan, confidently believing it was deceit.

A group close to Fang Wei expressed indignation, ready to rush out and severely punish whoever dared make trouble at the Fang Family Mansion.
