However, Assistant Xi's worries became a reality as the two of them arrived at Xi Sang's house.
Because they found out that the family had looked up to another celestial master. When Assistant Xi saw this, he was obviously rather unhappy as he turned to look at his uncle and questioned him about his actions but what was done was already done, there was no point in crying over split milk anymore.
" I did not know that you were coming," said Assistant Xi's uncle, even though he was a bit embarrassed, his face turning green and white from anger as he looked at the chaotic scene in front of him.
What was even more embarrassing was that this uncle of Assistant Xi had found none other than Shen Yu, the fiancee of Gu Chenyi.
Shen Yu was rather displeased when she saw that Assistant Xi had brought Song Yan. She originally wanted to do a favour to Assistant Xi and his family, that way she will have a chance to get close to Fu Yu Sheng whose power was unmatched in the entire city. But now that she saw that Song Yan was also here, she was a bit upset—— she has been long aware of the fact that Song Yan was also Gu Chenyi's disciple but she never thought that she was also working as a celestial master when she had boundless wealth in her hands already.
Song Yan also stared at Shen Yu with a calm gaze when she noticed that Shen Yu was looking at her with an agitated expression.
Assistant Xi who brought Song Yan to his uncle's house was really angry, at the same time he was afraid that he will offend Song Yan which was why he quickly apologised to Song Yan. He looked at Song Yan with an extremely embarrassed expression and then said, " I truly had no idea that they did something like this, when I told them that I was going to bring a celestial master they agreed and said that they will wait but who would have known that they will go behind my back and do their own things."
He turned to look at his uncle and aunt before saying sternly, " Since you have already thought everything through, I hope you will stop calling me and my mother for help. If you are so capable then show your capabilities all the time, uncle, lest you offend someone you shouldn't."
Assistant Xi's uncle's face turned grim, he wanted to say something but did not know where to start. He did not wish to offend Assistant Xi but he did not dare to offend Shen Yu either, she was, after all, the fiancée of Gu Chenyi.
Thus, he silently lowered his head allowing Assistant Xi to scold him. He was still his nephew no matter what even if they were to get into a quarrel, it wasn't as if his brother would stop caring about him right? More importantly, this celestial master had no name for herself, if he was to invite her to exorcise that female ghost and she failed it will only be more troublesome.
Seeing that his uncle still wanted to let Shen Yu do the exorcism, Assistant Xi did not say anything. He once again apologised to Song Yan whom he brought to this countryside for no reason.
How could Song Yan not see that Assistant Xi's uncle was looking down on her? He must be thinking that since she did not have any name for herself she might not a skilled celestial master. Song Yan felt a bit regretful thinking how people only cared about one's name instead of paying attention to their work and skills but even so, she did not say anything and simply told Assistant Xi not to bother with something so small since his uncle wanted Shen Yu to take a look at his son then she was going to let him do as he wished.
Shen Yu, on the other hand, felt like Song Yan was looking down on her what did she mean by that she was not going to fight with her over something like this, was it because she was thinking that she was not skilled enough?
The more she thought of the situation like this, the more she felt that it made sense. Most probably after seeing her getting kicked out of the office by Gu Chenyi, Song Yan must be thinking that she was superior when compared to her.
Song Yan did not wish to bother Shen Yu, she turned on her heels to leave as she no longer had any good impression towards Assistant Xi's uncle and his family. From what she heard Assistant Xi had already told his uncle that he was going to bring her but because Assistant Xi's uncle did not believe in her skills and could not bring herself to trust her as they did not see her at the same level as Shen Yu.
In the end, it was their fault to begin with, since Song Yan didn't wish to make things difficult for Assistant Xi, she decided to take a step back and not bother with this matter.
" Wait!" But before she could leave, she was stopped by Shen Yu who hurriedly reached out and held her hand up. " Since Miss Song is here why don't the two of us take a look at this female ghost? Think it of as a fair and friendly match?" She suggested with a small smile which made Song Yan narrow her eyes in return.
Was there such a good thing? Wasn't Shen Yu simply looking down on her thinking that Song Yan was not as highly skilled as her because Shen Yu had been learning exorcism arts since she was a child but Song Yan came into the picture just a few months ago?
She looked at Shen Yu who was smiling brightly at her, but no matter how wide Shen Yu smiled, she couldn't change the fact that her smile was full of scheming!
