The Southern kingdoms raised their banners in rebellion, and the Xuande Emperor summoned your son to march south for battle. However, unexpectedly, his opponent had allied with demons, greatly increasing their strength. In just one month, the hundred thousand troops he led were reduced to less than ten thousand.
What was supposed to be a certain defeat turned around when the Demon Catcher intervened, saving your son's life. Your son was once again promoted, rising from the third rank to the current second rank.
At this point, Sang Qingxiao turned and questioned Pang Yong, asking how much effort he had put into these two battles compared to the Demon Catcher. Surely he understood the implications.
Pang Yong, you climbed up on the achievements of the Demon Catcher while allowing your son to bully both the Demon Catcher and his Spirit Familiar, trampling on the face of the Demon Catcher. Hmph! You truly have some nerve!
Sang Qingxiao emphasized her words deliberately, her tone heavy with intent. It was not only a reprimand aimed at Pang Yong but also a slap in the face for the officials watching.
Once upon a time, the contributions of the Demon Catcher were taken for granted by these officials; they no longer referred to him as "Lord" but rather derisively as "that demon catcher." There was a time when even he believed it was all natural, watching as his efforts became mere cheerleading and applause for others.
Sang Qingxiao aimed to bring all of this to light, making it clear that she would not be ignored. She never intended to remain a quiet tavern owner; she sought to intimidate some people to reduce unnecessary troubles in the future.
Pang Yong listened with an ambiguous expression as Sang Qingxiao criticized his so-called achievements. The humiliation filled him with memories of his time in Prince Jing's Army when superiors often dismissed him. Yet, these were facts he could not refute.
Taking a few deep breaths, he decided not to dwell on past grievances but instead focused on his current situation. He felt a pang of frustration as he defended his son; after all, he did not know that it was your Spirit Familiar.
Oh? Is that so? The Spirit Familiar bears the mark of the Demon Catcher; I believe General Pang should be well aware of this since he has been protected by the Spirit Familiar multiple times.
I also heard that after the war ended, as a gesture of gratitude, General Pang had shared drinks and heartfelt conversations with the Demon Catcher several times. However, it seems that in his memorials, General Pang did not mention the Demon Catcher at all.
Of course, court officials are much like you; they attribute all merits to themselves. After all, what good are these contributions to the Demon Catchers?
But just because the Demon Catchers do not expect such things does not mean you can brush them off with superficial gratitude while secretly believing their sacrifices are taken for granted.
Pang Yong, nothing is taken for granted. Not teaching your son to recognize Spirit Familiars is your fault.
I’ve heard that Pang Chengzu is your family’s only male descendant. As they say, if a son is not taught properly, it is the father's fault. Who’s to blame for not teaching him how to identify Spirit Familiars and thus provoking me?
Since you are so reluctant to part with him, I will give you a choice: only one of you can live—either you die and he lives or you live and he dies. Choose one.
