Supreme Vision Master Chapter 1255: Hu Family Patriarch (1)

"Bang!"

The sleeves of the Second Elder’s robe were torn off, right down to his bare arms.

After being forcefully pushed back, his figure landed heavily on the ground. Immediately, he looked with sheer horror in the direction of the sound.

"Fa... Family Head?!"

Upon seeing Hu Zhongtian, who was being supported and standing at the main courtyard entrance, the Second Elder's expression turned grim.

What was happening?

Wasn't Hu Zhongtian deathly ill, confined to his bed and completely unconscious?

How could he possibly be present at the courtyard entrance?

And judging by his appearance, did he already know about Chu Lingfeng?

The Second Elder's heart began to race, but Hu Zhongtian's gaze was fixed on Chu Lingfeng, standing protectively before Luo Qingtong.

Noticing the subtle resemblance in his brows and eyes to his daughter, Hu Zhongtian's eyes welled with emotion.

Tears streamed down as he coughed severely, asking in a voice full of tremor, "You... are you Lady Yan’s son?"

"I am." Chu Lingfeng met his gaze and nodded truthfully.

However, his protective stance in front of Luo Qingtong remained unaltered.

He eyed the elder man before him with caution.

Chu Lingfeng harbored no trust for anyone within the Hu Family at this moment.

He could not permit his master to suffer because of him.

"Are you my grandfather?" Chu Lingfeng looked towards Hu Zhongtian, "My mother misses you. Can she come back to see you?"

As he spoke, without awaiting Hu Zhongtian's reply, he added, "If it’s not feasible, then never mind. We shall depart, and I won't trouble you again. Just please, do not harm my friends."

Chu Lingfeng felt utterly disillusioned with the Hu Family now.

He watched Hu Zhongtian, prepared to leave instantly if the answer was negative.

He had tried his utmost, but if the Hu Family refused to accept him and his mother, there was nothing more he could do.

He could neither allow his mother to return and endure such humiliation and torment again, nor could he let Luo Qingtong worry about his personal affairs.

His master had already been exceedingly, exceedingly kind to him!

He could not burden his master with any further troubles.

Under Chu Lingfeng’s earnest gaze, Hu Zhongtian was overwhelmed with tears.

What Chu Lingfeng had just said struck a profound chord within him.

His grandson had broken in, only to convey that his daughter yearned to return and see him.

Hearing this felt like a knife twisting deeply into his heart.

Just as he was about to utter a word, the Second Elder interjected with haste.

"Eldest Brother! You absolutely must not agree! Do not forget the disgrace Lady Yan brought upon our Hu Family!"

"If it hadn't been for her indiscretion, her foolishness gallivanting outside, how would our alliance with the Huo Family have been severed?"

"Missing an opportunity for advancement is one matter, but more critically, we've offended the Huo Family and inadvertently benefited the Bai Family!"

"Lady Yan is the true great sinner of our Hu Family! Let alone her bearing this son, who is still a complete fool!"

"If these two individuals were to return to our Hu Family, just imagine the ridicule we would face from everyone!"

"Eldest Brother, you absolutely cannot allow this!"

The Second Elder's impassioned words immediately ignited fury within Chu Lingfeng's eyes.

"My mother and I have no desire for your Hu Family!"

They were already his master's people; how could they possibly return to the Hu Family!

"Hmph! That's hardly a certainty! If you return and insist on clinging on, refusing to leave, what are we to do then? Wouldn't we become the laughingstock once more?"

The Second Elder scoffed.

He refused to believe that Hu Yan Niang held no lingering thoughts about the Hu Family.

The mother and son, isolated and helpless out in the world, were perhaps seeking an opportune moment to reintegrate into the Hu Family!
