Miao Zhu’s eyes were blank and hollow. From the moment the young master answered his mother’s questions, she had lost any will to live. She just watched, detached and indifferent, as events unfolded in the side hall, like a mere spectator. Even when she heard she was going to be executed, she didn’t feel any fear, rather she felt a sense of release.
She hoped this lowly life would end soon. What was there to argue about?
What was the use of arguing? She was but a humble maid, no one would listen to her, and no one cared about her.
But when she heard this servant leader, who always cursed her for her dullness, pleading for her, a strange feeling arose in Miao Zhu’s heart at the moment when Mrs. Liu was haggling her. Her eyes were blurred by tears.
Mrs. Liu was always very strict with her maidservants. Even the slightest mistakes would result in severe punishment. Many of the maids cursed her in secret. But right now, only this woman was willing to speak up for her in front of the outraged mistress.
Miao Zhu turned her head to look at Mrs. Liu, biting her lower lip without saying a word. Yet her tears flowed involuntarily.
She didn’t cry when the mistress rushed into the young master’s room.
She didn’t cry when the family warriors forced her down in the hall.
She didn’t cry when the young master denied bringing her into his room.
Even when the mistress said she would beat her to death, she didn t cry.
But when she had given up on herself and someone was still advocating for her, she couldn’t hold back her tears.
So this is what being cherished feels like.
Tears covered her face, but the comers of her mouth couldn’t stop lifting.
This bizarre expression in Xu Shuhui’s eyes was seen as further disrespect and provocation!
“Ridiculous, ridiculous! Committing such a base act and still having the audacity to smile. Drag her away, drag her away!” Xu Shuhui hated this shameless woman to the bone. Having been born in the prestigious Xu Clan, she had seen many promising young men lose their senses and aspirations due to women like her, sinking amidst beauty, becoming just one of the crowd.
She would never let her own son end up like that!
Miao Zhu must definitely die! Xu Shuhui’s spiritual power stirred uncontrollably within her as her fury mounted, emitting an oppressive aura that made it difficult for everyone to breathe. The young boy sitting next to her felt this icy killing intent the most acutely. He was so scared that he didn’t dare breathe, let alone raise his head.
Just as two warriors were about to drag Miao Zhu away by her arms, a handsome young man in black robes, raising an eyebrow, walked into the side hall.
“Young Master!”
“Young Master!”
Several stewards greeted the returning young master with salutes.
Xu Shuhui, upon seeing her eldest son, became even more agitated and said urgently, “Luo Er, quickly come to your mother’s side. Xing has lost his virginity. Come and see if it will affect his martial arts foundation!”
Her asking was not out of desperation but because Tang Luo, at present, was a renowned martial arts researcher in the Tang Clan and was also the youngest clan elder.
What is a martial arts researcher? They are people who delve deep into the core principles of martial arts and have the deepest understanding of it. The so-called heritage of noble families most often refers to such people. The Tang Clan, having reigned over numerous warriors for thousands of years, only had a few martial arts researchers, demonstrating how rare they were.
The most excellent martial arts researchers are called Martial Arts Grandmasters and are revered by commoners. Even an ordinary martial arts researcher is considered a martial arts master. They are courted by countless warriors ready to pledge their loyalty and are regarded as the standard-bearers of martial arts by their clans.
Her eldest son was one of these martial arts researchers, so who could blame Xu Shuhui for seeking his opinion on her younger son’s condition? Only her son’s verdict could ease her heart.
The young boy hearing that his brother had arrived, hurriedly raised his head. His helpless gaze landed on his brother, but what he saw was Tang Luo raising an eyebrow, full of anger. The boy trembled, yet again lowered his head. He clenched his hands on his knees, his body trembling lightly.
With his angered face, Tang Luo walked past the two warriors holding the women and ordered, “Let her go.”
“This…” The two warriors were at a loss and glanced back at Xu Shuhui, unsure
of what to do.
Xu Shuhui noticed the two warriors and shouted impatiently, “What are you waiting for? Listen to the young master! Let her go!”
Ever since the battle with Jiang Lin, she had consciously reduced her physical intimacy with Tang Luo. In their conversation that day, she understood that Tang Luo had grown up and was no longer a child, but a man who stood on his own.
The two warriors loosened their grip on the small maidservant like pardoned prisoners. The moment her trembling legs touched the ground, she fell. Tang Luo glanced at the women who could not stand, frowned, and climbed onto the high platform of the side hall.
Upon seeing Tang Luo next to her, Xu Shuhui felt relieved. “Quickly check on your brother. See how he’s doing,” she said with a sob.
What are martial artists most afraid of? They are most frightened of their martial arts foundation being diminished. Especially for such prodigious martial artists, the family had to protect them extensively. The most basic rule being that they avoid fights as much as possible, not to mention indulging in alcohol or lustful pleasures
Tang Luo turned to his mother, who was wearing a look of despair, glanced at his younger brother, who was silent with his head down, and said to his mother, “The little guy should be fine, mother. Please, be at ease.
“How could he be fine!” Tears fell from Xu Shuhui’s eyes. She was so distraught that she held the young boy tight to her bosom. “You don’t know how pale your brother was when I saw him this morning. If anything were to happen to my precious Xing, how could I bear it!”
Seeing the sorrowful mistress embracing the pitiful child, her overflowing maternal love was evident. Looking at the young boy, who was still keeping silent and acting scared, Tang Luo’s forehead twitched. He put on a pleasent expression and said, “Mother, you’re right. Let me take a look at him to see what’s going on.”
“Yes, yes, check on your brother,” said Xu Shuhui, wiping her tears and standing up, leaving some space for her two sons.
Only the young boy was left, sitting in silence, looking defeated.
Once Xu Shuhui had left, Tang Luo’s expression immediately turned cold. “Lift up your head,” he ordered in a cold voice.
Tang Xing struggled to lift his head. His face was full of terror and fatigue. Looking at his brother’s cold face, an unfounded fear surged in his heart, and his eyes were filled with dread.
“Did you realize your mistake?”
Staring at Tang Luo’s serious face, Tang Xing stuttered, “I…I know I was wrong.”
“What was your mistake?”
The little boy’s face was as white as a sheet. He glanced at his mother, then his brother, and whispered, “I…I…I shouldn’t have let myself be seduced.” As soon as the words left his mouth, his collar was grasped by a hand, and five fingers gathered on his chest. Looking down at the back of the hand that was visibly throbbing on his chest, he could feel the rage of its owner.
Tang Luo’s hand gripped Tang Xing’s collar and hoisted the boy high off the chair. His eyes were filled with rage, and the little boy instinctively grabbed hold of his brother’s hand at his chest, panicked and at a loss.
Seeing the questioning turn into such a scene, Xu Shuhui was taken aback. She thought her son’s martial arts foundation had really been destroyed. Holding onto her eldest son’s arm, she cried out, “Luo Er, don’t be like this. Xing was just momentarily confused. Let him down quickly and speak properly!” Manager Xu and other stewards, witnessing the eldest young master confronting the younger one, were also startled. They rushed over saying, ■■Young Master, please calm down.. Young Master, please calm down and let the young master down!”
