Chapter 127 - One Hundred Twenty Three:



Translator: 549690339

No matter how old Mr. Xu viewed Tang Luos cultivation progress, Xu Shuhui could sense it and it filled her heart with extreme affection and concern.

Has his cultivation regressed again? she wondered quietly to herself, having clearly felt a surge of strong spiritual power just a few days ago. It had been so profound during the New Years wish, leaving everyone astonished, yet in mere days it seemed like he had just entered the Mortal Realm again.

Having witnessed similar instances several times before, she realized that her son must have experienced another volatility of spiritual power.

Fortunately, compared to the last time, the intervals this time were longer, he had not regressed, and still maintained his Mortal Realm cultivation.

Thinking of such an outstanding child constantly enduring such pain, Xu Shuhui felt even more endearing and said, Luo Er, I know you have a lot of things to deal with, but your cousin is visiting Xiling for the first time. Why dont you take him for a tour and use the opportunity to distract yourself a bit? Noticing the loving look in his mothers eyes, and coupling that with his recent channeling of his excess spiritual power into the star child, Tang Luo realized that he had made his mother worry again. Immediately feeling guilty, he reassured her, Dont worry, mother, I will definitely take good care of my cousin and show him around Xiling.

As a member of the Secret Arts Pavilion, his schedule was indeed packed.

Normally he would never accept this hosting duty, no matter how guilty he felt. There were hundreds, even thousands of unfilial members in the Tang Clan who were more adept at hosting and entertaining. Hence, showing the sights of Xiling was naturally better left to them.

However, upon seeing this peculiarly named cousin for the first time, Tang Luo decided he should spend some time with him.

After all, it was hard not to be astounded when you see a twenty-year-old martial artist with a cultivation level of 9999 (12856).

Although he knew the Xu Clan was a family of saints, the emergence of a young martial artist of this caliber was quite startling.

If he was not even considered among the top tier young warriors in Yuanzhou, then what level were the top warriors at?

Even though Xiling was a commercial city, its inhabitants were mostly merchants from either side of Longjiang, with very few trade delegations from across million miles, hence Tang Luo had very little understanding of Yuanzhou.

However, this cousin who came from far away and had traveled for a year, could certainly help clarify many of his questions.

Thus, Tang Luo willingly accepted this task.

When a person is prejudiced about something, they would blame any shortcomings on this prejudice, regardless of the circumstances.

Without a doubt, old Mr. Xu possessed quite a lot of prejudice against the Tang Clan. Therefore, the conversation between Xu Shuhui and Tang Luo sounded different in Mr. Xus ears.

From his perspective, someone of Tang Luos status in the clan, apart from practicing martial arts, should not have much else to occupy his time and should lead a leisure life.

However, according to Aunt Shuhui, this cousin seemed to be quite busy with other matters.

Note the fact that Xu Shuhui urged her son to relax and her concern-exhibited through her eyes-indicated that Tang Luo must have encountered some difficulties.

However, a warrior who reaches the Mortal Realm at a young age of just over fifteen, would be treasured like a gem even in the Xu Clan of Yuanzhou.

This Tang Clan really did not know how to handle matters well. Mr. Xu frowned, Cousin, if there is anything troubling you, share it with me. Now that I am in Xiling, I wont let my aunt and you suffer the slightest grievance.

Caught off-guard by these sudden words, Xu Shuhui and Tang Luo both stood dumbfounded.

Tang Luo couldnt comprehend why his cousin suddenly displayed such indignation and expressed a desire to stand up for him, so he turned his questioning eyes to his mother.

Whats wrong with him? His gaze was full of confusion, and he trusted his unspoken bond with his mother would help her understand.

Upon hearing her nephews words, Xu Shuhui felt a lump in her throat. In the mainland, males have historically been considered superior to females, hence the philosophy of valuing boys over girls was prevalent everywhere. Notably, men could marry multiple women, while women could only marry one man for a lifetime.

A daughter who marries is like water thrown out, how can she avoid being wronged? Even the primary wife who was married under proper arrangements faces this.

Feelings can become diluted over time, and its natural for men to be fickle. The husbands family might still show some respect if the wifes family is well-off. Even if the love fades, they might still entrust the regular household chores to the primary wife.

If the womans family was weak, or if the husbands identity and status changed, it was common for men to replace their wives in the wake of wealth and replace friends when they rose to power.

Xu Shuhui eloped with Tang Sen without a dowry from the Xu family, or any sign of formal wedding ceremony. Except for her Xu surname, her humble dowry was nothing compared to the dowry of a common clans lady.

For a girl of such background to marry into a stronger family, it was inevitable that she would be bullied. It would even pose a threat to her status as the legitimate wife, not to mention other matters.

After all, in the Xu familys eyes, Tang Sens relentless pursuit of Xu Shuhui stemmed from coveting the identity of a Xu familys daughter.

Their aim was to strip Xu Shuhui of her identity as a Miss Xu, foiling Tang Sens schemes. As for how this would impact Xu Shuhuis life, they did not take that into consideration. It was all a consequence of her reckless actions.

Why did her two newly connected brothers mention in their letter that Middle Ying City was her maternal home? Because from that day on, she was no longer a rootless duckweed, but a woman backed by powerful forces.

Xiling was just a city in Longzhou, and the Tang Clan governed its territory alongside the Mi Clan. To the eyes of her two brothers, these achievements were no different from those of a mere landowner. With Middle Ying City as a backing, Xu Shuhui could reclaim all the grievances she had suffered in the past, doubled.

The contents of the letter represented the loving care of her two brothers.

The indignation of her nephew brought another wave of familial affection into Xu Shuhuis heart.

Xu Shuhui studied Grand Elder Xu, finding that he was extremely similar to her eldest brother, especially the unyielding stubbornness. It was as if she was seeing her elder brother in his youth.

The care from her family filled her heart with gratitude. She had two loving brothers and a husband who loved her to the core. How fortunate she was in this life.

Auntie is very happy. Xu Shuhui looked at Grand Elder Xu and said earnestly and firmly.

Tang Luo was also smiling, admiring the righteousness of his cousin in standing up for his family against the aristocracy.

But Grand Elder Xu didnt easily believe what Xu Shuhui said. After all, a stubborn person is hard to change. So, he continued: Auntie, if you ever encounter any difficulties, your nephew is here for you. The entire Tang Clan can easily be taken down with just one sword stroke!

Oh my, my dearest cousin.bender

Tang Luo took a sharp breath, feeling that this guy was adorably confident.

Xu Shuhui laughed lightly, feeling her nephew was very much like his elder brother. Back when she was planning to elope with Tang Sen, her clan dispatched a team to capture her, and her elder brother stood in front of her and said:

Little Sis, you just go ahead. As for those small fries, bro will take care of them with a single sword stroke!

That capture squad consisted of martial artists from the Fierce Realm. She couldnt help but wonder how hard her elder brother must have struggled in that battle.

1 am living a very good life. Xu Shuhui reiterated, but looking at the determined eyes of her nephew, she was at a loss for words for a moment, not knowing how to explain her happiness. There was so much she could talk about, yet she didnt know where to start.

Seeing his mothers perplexed expression, Tang Luo started: Father only has one wife. He always comes home to dine with mother unless he is on duty. All domestic matter, big and small, are under mothers authority.

She also has three children. The eldest son is the Pride of Xiling and serves as an Elder in the Secret Arts Pavilion. The youngest son is diligent and has exceptional aptitude that will help him reach the Fierce Realm. The youngest daughter is simple and sweet. These should be enough to prove that she is leading a very good life, wouldnt you agree, Cousin.

Grand Elder Xu was stunned. He glanced at Tang Luo, then at Xu Shuhui, his eyes filled with incredulity.

Hearing her eldest sons speech, which contained quite a bit of boasting, Xu Shuhui couldnt help but laugh. Nevertheless, she nodded to her nephew, affirming that it was all true.

This is.. Grand Elder Xu relaxed his brows and eyes, but the disbelief on his face still persisted as he said, That is astonishing indeed.

Tang Luo nodded in agreement.

He also thought it was rare to see such a henpecked husband with such high comprehension, not only in Xiling but across the entire Longzhou..
