Chapter 155: Where was your backbone?

Arriving back at the Ice Sect of Xue Ling, night had already breached the skies and the winter gales grew colder.

Along the way, Zou Jiayi had fallen asleep and Chi Cheng refused to move or disturb his son's slumber when the carriage halted. Chi Yulan was carried away by her husband, exhausted and soundly asleep.

Han Xuelian ducked his head inside the carriage, immediately disgruntled with Zou Jiayi's audacity to use Chi Cheng's shoulder as his resting place.

"It's cold," the Grandmaster stated. "You should go inside quickly, Ah-Xin."

Chi Cheng nodded, gently caressing Zou Jiayi's cheek while the youngster softly snored.

'What relationship does he truly have with Huo Renyi?' The Grandmaster pondered, sighing heavily. It was infuriating enough that his negotiations for Jing Ling's tail resulted in failure, now he was entrapped to deal with other men being too close in his dear broken jewel's proximity.
