Chapter 2644, Return A Favour With A Favour

Yang Kai did not move, however, and instead looked at Xiao Ling’er for a while before asking, “Old Ban, she’s just a little girl. Is it safe for her to be home alone?”

There were all kinds of people in this desolate city, where there was no one to keep order, and fights happened all the time. Xiao Ling’er was just a seven-year-old little girl. If she was involved in any danger, Yang Kai was worried that she would not be able to protect herself.

Before Old Ban could answer, Ling’er crisply replied, “I will not give grandpa trouble.”

Old Ban smiled, “Ling’er is very well-behaved. When I’m not around, she won’t go out.”

Yang Kai shook his head lightly as this was not a matter of her going out or not. If someone really intended to harm Xiao Ling’er, it was useless for her to hide at home. Yang Kai was actually quite surprised Xiao Ling’er had been safe all these years already.

After pondering for a while, Yang Kai asked, “Has Old Ban ever thought of sending her to a Sect to cultivate?”

Old Ban smiled wryly, “Naturally, I’ve thought about it before, but this old man doesn’t have any connections, so there is no Sect that I can send her to. I would rather teach her by myself as a small Sect won’t be able to nurture her well. As for those big Sects, it’s not easy to join them.”

“How about I recommend her to a Sect?” Yang Kai turned to him, “As your reward for leading the way?”

Old Ban was stunned, then he was overjoyed, “Young Master Yang, are you serious?”

Yang Kai smiled lightly, “Why didn’t you ask me where I will send her?”

Old Ban replied, “How could that Sect be bad if Young Master Yang is the one recommending it?”

Yang Kai was an Emperor Realm Master, and Old Ban had witnessed his incredible strength with his own eyes. Since Yang Kai was the one making this offer, he would definitely not send Xiao Ling’er to some nameless Sect.

This was Old Ban’s greatest wish as well as a great opportunity for Xiao Ling’er.

“Ling’er, quickly thank Young Master Yang,” Old Ban ordered Xiao Ling’er, his face flushed in happiness.

Xiao Ling’er did not kneel, however, but instead stared at Yang Kai curiously with a pair of big, blinking eyes, her long eyelashes quivering as she spoke up, “Can Ling’er ask something?”

Yang Kai was amused by her reaction, as he did not expect that a little girl at her age would already be this precocious. He squatted down to a height even with hers, and nodded, “What do you want to ask?”

Xiao Ling’er tilted her head for a while, then asked, “Will I be separated from my grandpa?”

Yang Kai nodded, “Yes, there are only women in the place where I’m going to send you. Men are not allowed to stay there.”

Xiao Ling’er quickly shook her head like a rattle drum upon hearing it, “I don’t want to go then. I must accompany grandpa.”

hearing this, Old Ban stomped his foot anxiously, “You little girl, do you know what you are talking about? It is a great opportunity
