Ive never seen such a strange concept in a clan, and my cousins clan is just such a bizarre one, Tang Luo complained, his eyes almost rolling back as he squirmed out of his cousins grasp. He glanced up at the sky and said in disbelief, It is almost dinner time. Arent you going home to eat, but instead heading to the brothel?
Xu Lao Ying was taken aback. He seemed to remember that today was his first day in Xiling City. It would be inappropriate not to have dinner with his family. He pondered for a moment, cheerfully saying, Then, after dinner, we will go! Tang Luo looked at him in disbelief. What about this kind of martial artist, who was trained so powerfully, what would people who had worked hard to cultivate think? Could aptitude really be so important?
Seeing Tang Luos look of disappointment, Xu Lao Ying assumed he was upset because they couldnt go to the brothel right away. He immediately comforted, Dont worry, cousin. After dinner, we will go. Ill make sure they save some chicks just for you.
The heck, am I upset because of this? Tang Luo thought. To him, Xu Lao Yings words felt like those of an idiot.
Are you so fond of the red-light district? He asked, genuinely puzzled. Ordinarily, a young master from a noble family shouldnt be this lascivious, right?
Eh~ Ah! Xu Lao Ying expressed his position through his tone, How can you say I like the red-light district?!
Without it, I cant live at all! His peach blossom eyes were full of mystery and tenderness, as if recalling countless emotional moments. Some girls walking by blushed when they saw his handsome face.
Smacking his lips, Xu Lao Ying turned to talk more with Tang Luo about the delights of the sensual world, but the boy in black was already moving away, leaving only his back view.
Cousin, dont walk so fast, wait for me
Tang Luo ignored the call behind him and walked forward with a drooping head. If he started out with any desires to discuss martial arts with this fellow, now he had completely lost it.
More interaction with this guy, obsessed with lust, will just trigger his anger, Tang Luo thought.
At the Manor of the Marquis on the Southern Bank of Xiling City
Young Master, Young Master! Something bad happened! The housekeeper knocked on the door and called Mi Hou.
Whats the matter!? Stop making such a fuss! Mi Hou, who had not put on his clothes properly, kicked the door open from inside the room. A girl draped in sheer curtains hid half of her body, but her snowy shoulders were exposed.
The housekeeper saw the scene in the room, and understood his timing was exceptionally inopportune. However, the situation was critical, and he had no other choice.
Young Master. Looking at the now angry Mi Hou, the housekeeper spoke quietly, Qiu Jinglong is back and says he has important news.
Hmm? Upon hearing Qiu Jinglongs name, Mi Hou felt anxious, Where is he? Take me to see him immediately.
Inside the Hall of Mi Hous mansion, Qiu Jinglong remained seated, his face still showing fear and surprise.
Thinking back to the scene in front of the Fox Fairy Temple, he only felt like he had seen a ghost.
The person accompanying the young swordsman was unexpectedly, the genius Tang Luo.
This meant that Fengs relatives had a conflict with the Tang Clan, accompanied by a bunch of local ruffians.
What the hell. Qiu Jinglong closed his eyes in agony, his whole body trembling in fear.
The Righteous Gang must have been wiped out, and maybe even the Feng family would fall. When he first saw Tang Luo, he knew he had to escape back and report to Young Master Mi Hou.
Seeing Mi Hous angry face entering the banquet hall, Qiu Jinglong immediately slid off the chair and kneel, incessantly kowtowing to Mi Hou.
Mi Hou frowned upon seeing Qi Jinglongs state and scolded, Look at yourself, what urgency do you have to report?
Young Master. The Righteous Gang is gone, Qiu Jinglong responded tremulously, not daring to lift his head.
Mi Hou shot up from his seat, his expression as savage as a beast choosing its prey. He took two steps forward and kicked Qiu Jinglong onto the ground!
Gone? How can it be gone? Did Gong Zheng betray us?!
Qiu Jinglong dared not rub his left shoulder which felt shattered. In agonizing pain, he rolled over and knelt down again, cautiously saying, No, Sir Mi Hou, it was Tang Luo.
Mi Hous face instantly rigidified, followed by a burst of overwhelming rage! Like an infuriated beast, he paced back and forth inside the banquet hall, roaring angrily.
Him again? Him again!? He destroyed my fighting arena, and now he wants to ruin my gang. What the heck does he want?
How could this bastard always go against me? I must kill him, I must kill him!bender
The great battle outside of Xiling City did not escape those who were observant. After all, with power that seemed to resemble the turning over of the Earth Dragon, intensity was felt even by mundane men from miles away in the citys west, everyone felt the earth shake.
After the battle, people flocked to the plains to get a closer look at what had transpired.
In the end, they recognized the deceased as warriors from the four families, the Feng, Ma, Lu and Fong in the West City. When the punctured chest of Fong Jinhuang and the battered body of Lu Zheng were found, the news shocked Wind Media beyond belief.
Because, there were only a few in the entire Xiling who had this power; the power to kill two house leaders and dozens of Mortal Realm warriors with a single stroke.
When they discovered the traces of a carved animal drawn golden-wheel carriage on the ground, everything became clear.
The killer of these four family warriors was none other than the First Head of the Tang Martial Hall Tang Sen!
The Wind Media looked at each other and in the end, they gritted their teeth and reported this news throughout Xiling.
Suddenly, there was turmoil throughout Xiling.
Since the end of last year, two Wancheng Treasure Ships had set out one after the other, bringing back hundreds of thousands of refugees. Mound cities were built in the north and south of Xiling to accommodate these refugees.
The populations of the Tang and Mi families rose sharply and reduced grain distribution.
Seeing this, the various clan heads were like startled birds.
They were terrified of a war erupting between the two clans, if the two clans went to war, the entire Xiling would be turned into ruins. With the Wancheng Treasure Ships at their disposal, the conflict could potentially spread throughout Lingjiang River, affecting dozens of cities.
Every family started to prepare for the worst, or choose sides.
But no one ever thought that the Tang clan would act so quickly. The four families, although not the top-tier families, were powerful in their own right, yet they were taken down so easily.
Inside the dining hall, the old Xu kept making eye contact with Tang Luo during dinner, reminding him not to forget about the upcoming event.
Tang Luo pretended not to see his signals and continued enjoying his meal.
Im done eating. Old Xu put down his bowl and chopsticks and said to Xu Shuhui.
Xu Shuhui looked at her nephews composure and was quite pleased, concerned, she said, Eat more, youre a Mortal Realm warrior, eating more wont hurt.
The enthusiastic hostess put another braised leopard rib in the young mans bowl.
Old Xu gladly accepted Xu Shuhuis hospitality, quickly finishing the ribs, wiped his mouth, and waited for Tang Luo.
But seeing Tang Luo still leisurely eating, he thought his cousin might be shy, so he told Xu Shuhui, Auntie, its quite inappropriate that our cousin, at his age, is still inexperienced in certain matters.
Hearing these words, Tang Luo almost spat out his food in surprise. Were such things appropriate to discuss at such a sacred force as the dining table?
Across from you is your aunt, do you even realise what youre saying, brother? Tang Luo couldnt believe what he was hearing.
Xu Shuhui glanced at Old Xu, then at Tang Luo, and sighed, You think I havent thought about it? But every time I tried to arrange a concubine for him, he refused. This child has high standards, I dont know what kind of lady would catch his eye..
