The place where Han Feng Xue had stayed in for a long time seemed to have a lot of something that seemed like the Soul Replenishing Jade. And it was much bigger and more than that few pieces of Soul Replenishing Jade the Xiao Family had combined together.
After wiping out the entire Xiao Family, Jun Mo Xie had already secretly retrieved the Soul Replenishing Jade from Xiao Xing Yun’s possesion.
At this moment, not only was the Hongjun Pagoda reacting, but even the Soul Replenishing Jade in Jun Mo Xie’s possession began to turn warm for no reason.
Han Feng Xue stumbled back in shock, looking at this young fellow who appeared in his face suddenly in surprise. Upon seeing a greedy, somewhat lecherous look upon the lad’s face, he frowned and said warily, “What do you want?”
“I did not have any intentions; I was merely admiring the superb cultivation that Old Master Han has.” Jun Mo Xie smiled. Suffering the Hongjun Pagoda’s blow of waves in his head, using all his power to prevent himself from losing self-control.
He was very surprised; what sort of magical object would make a heavenly treasure like the Hongjun Pagoda so thirsty with desire? This was too peculiar! Was there some other mysterious secret in this big snowy mountains?
Suddenly, a memory from the day he infiltrated the underground of Blizzard Silver City flashed across his mind. The area where he had encountered resistance when he tried to pass through it… could it be there? Jun Mo Xie unconsciously started to grin evilly, stroking his chin.
“Did Blizzard Silver City disappear? Isn’t it still there? Haha, isn’t it easy to just rebuild it!” Jun Mo Xie laughed, rubbing his chin.
Han Feng Xue pretended that he did not heard a single thing, taking it as if this fellow had just released a fart! Even if it’s a fart, you could still hear the sound and smell its scent! But this guy’s words are just pure sarcasm!
It had taken four generations to develop to the scale Blizzard Silver City was at! How could rebuilding it be something easy? This fellow actually said it would be easy?!
Han Feng Xue was extremely displeased. If not for the sake that they had just improved relationships with the Jun Family, making it inconvenient to take actions, he really wanted to discipline this person on the spot!
“Actually, an incident like Blizzard Silver City collapsing is truly the will of the Heavens! Just as the saying goes, ‘The Heavens are watching the acts of men’. An incident of such a massive magnitude—if the Heavens are toying with us, which human being can do so?” Jun Mo Xie made another remark that had caused the Old Master Han’s face to turn even darker.
The old man was fuming, and lowering his voice, he said, “Heaven’s will? What bullsh*t! Although I do not know what sort of method you used to cause the Sword Peak to collapse, if the Sword Peak had not collapsed, would the entire Blizzard Silver City be implicated and turned into a ruined city?! Obviously you were the main culprit behind all this, but you dare to talk to me about Heaven’s will? What Heaven’s toying? Acting innocent like this, perhaps I should pay a visit to the Jun Family and demand an explanation from your grandpa!”
“Do simmer down Old Master Han; I had no ill-intentions. Listen me out, you’ll understand.” Jun Mo Xie put on an expression of peddler and said enticingly, “Look, the entire Blizzard Silver City has always been under both the Han and Xiao Family. But the Xiao Family heartlessly rebelled; although they have been wiped out, Blizzard Silver City is filled with their remnants. Probably Heaven was annoyed, so he simply unleashed an earthquake, allowing the Blizzard Silver City which was full of the heinous aura of the Xiao Family to collapse! Which is a good thing, for new things cannot come if the old ones don’t go! When I put it this way, you’ll definitely understand right?”
Han Feng Xue let out a heavy sigh of contempt and looked away while crossing his arms, completely pretending that Jun Mo Xie was just air and does not exist. Otherwise, Han Feng Xue was sure that he would be driven to his death by this youth!
On the other hand, Xue Shuang Qing, Dongfang Wen Xin, and Jun Wu Yi had come to an agreement. The more Xue Shuang Qing looked at Jun Wu Yi, the more pleased and satisfied she felt. But her stare had managed to make this blood general turn entirely red in the face from embarrassment.
Xue Shuang Qing secretly nudged Han Zhan Meng’s arm and whispered, “No wonder Yao’er fancied him; this Jun Wu Yi is really so much better than that Xiao Han. Be it in terms of appearance or character, manners and demeanor, he is much better than Xiao Han by many folds! And his Xuan skills are not ordinary, but I am unable to determine its depths. Truly a rare find between heaven and earth…”
Han Zhan Meng nodded silently; from the look in his eyes, it was clear that he was very satisfied—he had finally rounded up one of his biggest worries. There were no longer any obstacle in his eldest daughter’s marriage and she could finally get what she wanted. Even the traitorous Xiao Family had been eradicated, although Blizzard Silver City had collapsed along with the Xiao Family… but all in all, it was still a good thing!
At least they did not have to worry about the past, and this son-in-law looked very reliable…
“This… Lady Jun…” Although Xue Shuang Qing was an elder to Dongfang Wen Xin in terms of seniority, but Jun Wu Yi and Han Yan Yao had yet to wed, so she was a little embarrassed to address her directly as sister-in-law. What more was that they were not far apart in terms of their age, and her youngest daughter seemed to be interested in her son… This.. this was too complicated to be put into words.
So Xue Shuang Qing didn’t know what form of address should she use and only felt as if her brain was tied up into a knot. After racking her brains for a long time, she decided to address her as “Lady Jun”…
“What can I do for Lady Han?” Dongfang Wen Xin also felt the same conflict over what to address Xue Shuang Qing as, so she followed the same way Xue Shuang Qing had addressed her.
“I.. have a matter…” Xue Shuang Qing looked at her youngest daughter and let out a sigh of resignation, before continuing. “There’s a matter that I’m afraid I need Lady Jun to help make a decision.”
Looking at her expression, Dongfang Wen Xin more or less could guess what it was about. “Do speak, Lady Han.”
Xue Shuang Qing first sighed before speaking. “Actually these are just small matters regarding the children, but they’ve really given me an headache all these years due to the poor decision made by us parents—Yao’er had suffered for ten whole years. I have also finally became more clear-minded, and I feel like I should leave the happiness of my daughters to themselves. As parents, we are really powerless; as long as they feel blissful, that is greater than anything…. Better than worrying ceaselessly day and night but remaining unable to do anything about it, we might as well let go and let it be done according to their wishes…”
“Yes, one will never understand the woe of being a parent until they’ve become one themselves… These children have really cost us much effort…”
Dongfang Wen Xin nodded in agreement, letting out a deep sigh before continuing with much satisfaction. “Luckily our Mo Xie has always been an honest boy; he was very obedient and well-behaved from young, always obeying what he was told, saving me a lot of worry…”
“Isn’t that the case! As long as the children are obedient, it’ll be much easier for us parents. I’m really envious of you, to have such a capable son who is so obedient…” Xue Shuang Qing was lying when she had made this sentence. Side-eyeing Jun Mo Xie, who behaved as if he was the top of the world and carried an air of a ruffian and villainy… no matter how she looked, she couldn’t see where the “honest, obedient, well-behaved” son Dongfang Wen Xin spoke of was…
“Um, today, Yao’er finally got her wish and has found a reliable partner for the rest of her life. The two of us have finally put down a big big worry of ours…” Xue Shuang Qing continued haltingly. “But this youngest daughter of mine gives me a greater headache…
