Madam Zhao fainted

Back to the real world…

"..."

"..."

"..."

"!!! Bro! Calm down!!!"

"Bring my granddaughter back to me!!!"

Tian Ming seeing that the painting had no intention to release his granddaughter back to him, went to threaten the priest.

The innocent red-hair priest, "..." (crying in his heart bitterly)

[How would I know that the ceremony would cause a child to be swallowed up by a painting?! If I had known, I would have just let senior brother do it! I'm innocent! I'm innocent!!!!!]

But sadly no one would be able to claim him innocent, after all, he was the one that started it.

The red-hair priest looked at his senior brother for help. 

The blue-robed man (senior brother), "..."

[Thankfully, it was An Hong who did the ritual. Sorry, Junior little brother, just suffer for a bit. I hope you can survive, if not… don't worry I'll bring your corpses back to Dao Shan.]

An Hong,"!!!"

[Senior brother, don't just pretend you didn't see me!!! Help me!!! Dammit! Lan Qiwen, you bastard!!! Where's our brotherly bond?! If I ever survive this, I'll kill you!!!]

The poor An Hong who was beaten black and blue by Tian Ming can no longer stand nor speak. He glared at Lan Qiwen, who turned his head to the side avoiding him.

Tian Ming slammed the table and glared at An Hong who almost jumped into the air while laying down, looking so pitiful that the onlookers felt sad for him but were too scared to interfere.

"I want an explanation from you! How come every other child is fine on their ceremony, but when it comes to our family's Xun Ying, she got eaten by a painting?!"

The only ones who can stop Tian Ming were Zhao Yiyang and Zhao Cheng. An Hong looked towards their way for help, only to see them glaring at him with absolutely no intention to help at all and even stood at Tian Ming's side.

[What an unreasonable family! Accidents happen! No one is perfect! No! Overprotective, I should say.

But considering that the little one was Zhao Yiyang and Tianming's only granddaughter, so it is reasonable for them to be angry,  but it shouldn't be to the extent that they would hit people regardless of their reputation, is there?! I should have just let senior brother do the ceremony in the first place! *Sob* The Tian family is known to be eccentric, dammit! *Sob* Master!!! Help me!!! Your disciple is in danger!!! *Sobs*]

In Dao Shan

The master of An Hong and Lan Qiwen sense that his youngest disciple is in need of help.

 [Who dares to bully my youngest disciple?! Don't they know who their master is?!]

The master stood calmly as he walked in front of the crystal, as his fair hand reaches out to touch it, making an image appear. To be precise, it was the image of An Hong being beaten by Tian Ming. Looking at An Hong, he was furious. [How dare someone beat my favorite disciple?! How come Qiwen isn't helping him as his senior brother?!]

Then he looked at the culprit. [... Qiwen you did well. I take back my word. Little Hong bear with it for a while, Master will bring you back to life when Qiwen brings you back.]

The poor An Hong who was still waiting to be rescued, "..."

[Master!!!*sob* Noooooo!!!! Don't abandon me!!!]

But thankfully, Tian Ming was able to restrain himself and stop before An Hong really dies.

"You! Tell me a way to get my granddaughter back! Or else I will not be easy on you this time."

The onlookers looked at the pitiful An Hong and began to pray in their hearts.

[Hope, Old Tian wouldn't really kill this boy. Sigh, it's a pity, it's a pity, ah.]

[Ancestors, please protect this small one, I still have to look after our Ou family.]

[God, if you are there. If not… then Buddha, Grandpa earth, whoever there is. Please let that disciple know how to bring the little princess back and save us all from the Tian family's rage.]

[Dammit, the doors are shut, what are we going to do?! Just hope that one disciple is enough to anguish old Tian's anger.]

[Damn that bastard! He dragged us all into this. Doesn't he know that the Tian family is not to be messed with?! Dammit!]

After a bit of silence, An Hong spoke under pressure. "Thres a wae ta sef her bet it dapandsa owsh ha"

"What?! Speak clearly!"

Lan Qiwen stepped up and said, "My junior brother cannot speak well due to the beating. Please allow me to tell you."

"I don't care who speaks as long as one of you have a solution just say it or else, no one is leaving today!"

Lan Qiwen sweats a bit. "There is a way to save the little one but it would have to depend on the child herself. If she can pass then naturally she will be out if not she would just be in there until she completes the mission."

"Explain."

"Inside the painting, there will be an illusion spell, if the child can go past that stage, she would enter the place of the 4 divine beasts in which she would be tested on her potential and skills to see if she can inherit the painting from its creator. The beasts would guarantee the safety of the little one and would automatically be sent back if she fails, as long as she can pass the illusion spell."

"What level is the illusion spell?"

"It would be at least a level 2 illusion spell."

To save his life, Lan Qiwen also added, "She doesn't need to break the spell, but not to be influenced by the spirits inside for a duration of time also works. And it would be about the time it took for an incense stick to burn. (one hour)" 

Tian Ming almost explode from anger. Xun Ying was only an infant! Where the hell would she have the knowledge of breaking illusion spells?! On the side, Zhao Yiyang fainted.

"Honey!!!"

"Grandma!!!"

"Madam Zhao!"

Tian Ming glared at the disciple, gritted his teeth saying, "Just you wait." Then he picked up Zhao Yiyang in bridal style and carried her to the bedroom for the doctor to examine her.

"Doctor Yan, how is she?"

Doctor Yan an old man?! Nope! Doctor Yan wasn't an old man at all. He was a young and handsome lad, younger than Tian Ming. But don't get trick, he was actually a she. Although young, she had a tremendous talent for medic and was the Tian family's personal doctor.

"Madam, had received such heavy new of her newborn granddaughter, of course, it would attack her heart, what do you think?! Now get out!"

Tian Ming, "..." He sighed and went out. 

[...this girl. *sigh* At least show some respect to me. The temper is still as bad.]

Doctor Yan (Yan qishi) had an erratic temper and could fit into the Tian family like a puzzle. She was treated like family in the Tian household. Although the temper is bad sometimes, she was well liked for her lively and funny personally… especially the females.

Anyways, Tian Ming waited for a bit then walked back to the main room, looking for revenge.

 [Hoho, the disciples of Dao Shan huh?! Hee, I will beat you until your mother wouldn't recognize you anymore. First, let the painting eat my dear granddaughter then make my wife faint. Great, just great.]
