Chapter 487: Xiao Family Matters
Elder Huo couldn't believe that his disciple had beco so capable after all these years. Unexpectedly, and without much fuss, he presented him with a great-grandchild.
After the initial surprise, joy overwheld him.
As for the matter ntioned by his disciple, he readily agreed without hesitation. He understood why his disciple had brought him along; it was most likely for this very reason.
On the side, dusa had not expected those words to co out of Xiao Ming's mouth and was stunned for a mont. She couldn't help but confirm, "To marry ... are you sure about this?"
"Of course I am," Xiao Ming nodded. "I told you I would marry you. Now that I'm here, I want to give Yue'er a complete family. Aren't you willing?"
"I... am willing." dusa was far from unwilling. She loved her daughter too much, even more than her own life. Anything that would benefit her daughter, she would do, even if it was sothing she didn't particularly like.
But in this case, her feelings for Xiao Ming were already quite deep. There was no resistance in her heart. It was just, if he was going to marry her, what about the others?
Xiao Ming understood where dusa's doubts ca from. He had made up his mind a long ti ago, and there was no need to hesitate now.
"Xian'er, Qing Lin, I want to marry you both, are you willing?"
"I am willing!" Xiao Yi Xian's face lit up with a dazzling smile. How could she not be willing? She had waited for this day for a long ti.
"I am willing..." Qing Lin spoke softly, tears of joy glistening in her eyes. Sharing her life with her beloved was her greatest wish, and the ti had finally co to confirm their union.
Zi Yan rushed over to Xiao Ming while holding Yue'er and exclaid, "And ? What about ?"
Seeing the scene of Zi Yan carrying his daughter with an expectant gaze, a trace of tenderness appeared on Xiao Ming's face. Still, he shook his head gently and said, "Not yet."
Not to ntion dusa, with whom he already had a daughter, both Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin had been his partners for many years. There was no better ti than the present to unite with the three of them in marriage, and there was no reason to delay.
As for Zi Yan, although they had shared a very intimate bond since childhood, the romantic relationship between them had only recently been established, and it would still take a while for the forr feelings to completely turn into romantic ones. Besides, there was no need to rush things with her.
Xiao Ming was considering marrying her and Cao Ying after he had wiped out the Hun Clan.
Actually, it wouldn't have mattered much to Zi Yan if they had gone through such ceremonies or not. In her heart, she already considered herself to be Xiao Ming's wife, and in the sa way, she considered Xiao Ming as her own. They had the approval of her tribe's elders, and most importantly, Xiao Ming himself had declared that he would take responsibility for her, so what else mattered?
But after seeing the excitent in her sisters' eyes, for so reason, she too longed for this ceremony called marriage...
So, even though she knew Xiao Ming's intentions in her heart, she still felt a pang of disappointnt upon hearing his rejection. She couldn't help but think that maybe one of these days she could join one of her sisters' 'night activities' and speed things up a bit...
As Zi Yan murmured in her heart and the other girls shared their joy, a mark on Xiao Yue's forehead in Zi Yan's arms suddenly brightened. Shortly after, a colorful light shot out and landed on her shoulder, hissing happily at Xiao Ming.
"This is... Xiao Cai?" At the sight of this colorful light, Zi Yan was at first stunned, then exclaid in delight.
"Yes, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python wasn't completely absorbed by . Its soul has been reborn with the help of Yue'er's body. As a result, its power can be fully utilized by Yue'er... In other words, from the mont Yue'er was born, she possessed the strength of a Dou Ancestor," dusa explained in a soft voice.
!!!!
The Xiao Clan mbers standing beside them couldn't help but take a deep breath at these words.
Born as a Dou Ancestor... what kind of concept was that?
Even now, despite Xiao Ming's support, the Xiao family had yet to produce a Dou Ancestor!
But now it turned out that this was just the starting point for a newborn!
Comparisons could be odious at tis...
Xiao Ming, on the other hand, was not at all surprised. Xiao Yue's Dou Qi realm was sothing he had sensed right away. It was just that he found it a bit surprising that she was still only a Dou Ancestor, even though he had refined so many pills for her. It might have sothing to do with the fact that most of those pills were foundational.
Of course, those pills weren't completely ineffective. Yue'er was now near the eight-star Dou Ancestor.
The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python was a higher existence among the serpent-type magical beasts. In ancient tis, so strong Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Pythons were strong enough to challenge the Ancient Heaven Serpents.
For such a bloodline of serpent-type magical beast, even Qing Lin's Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils couldn't control it. Moreover, at their peak, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Pythons were comparable to a Dou Saint. This ant that in the future, Yue'er could even add the power of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python to her own strength. The power would be quite terrifying when a human and a snake worked together.
This was sowhat similar to Xiao Ming, who possessed the 'Spirit', and he was quite pleased with this arrangent for his daughter.
After a few more words, Xiao Ming reluctantly parted ways with dusa and his daughter. He still had to take his clan mbers back and take care of a few things. There wasn't much ti for further discussion at the mont.
With the addition of Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, he led everyone back to Wu Tan City.
Xiao Ming's return sent the entire Xiao family into a frenzy, and the whole clan was brimming with joy. As the news wasn't concealed, Wu Tan City and even the entire Jia Ma Empire soon began to take notice.
Several major forces visited Xiao Ming, including Hai Bodong, Jia Xingtian, Yao Ye, Yun Shan, Yun Yun, and Fa Ma, the chairman of the Alchemist Association.
When they saw Xiao Ming again, they realized that he and the won at his side had beco completely unfathomable to them, and a feeling of awe crept into their hearts.
Xiao Ming did not put on airs in front of them, but treated them as acquaintances.
They had a harmonious conversation during which Xiao Ming expressed his gratitude. Through Xiao Shan, he had learned of the considerable help they had given the Xiao family over the years.
His gratitude was obviously more than words. He thanked them sincerely and then gave them so pills that he didn't need, but even though that was the case for him, these pills were real treasures for them.
During this ti, Xiao Ming took the opportunity to establish a wormhole between the Jia Ma Empire and the Central Plains. This would allow him to quickly co to the aid of the Xiao family in case of trouble.
The establishnt of the wormhole would undoubtedly increase the Xiao family's influence in the Jia Ma Empire and surrounding areas even in his absence.
Having taken care of these matters, Xiao Ming finally began to plan his wedding.
The Xiao family's original intention was to have a grand celebration, but after consulting with the girls, Xiao Ming decided to keep things simple. Apart from the Xiao family themselves and Elder Huo, only a few people close to the girls attended.
Representing dusa's side were Hua She Er and Yue i.
Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin invited so forr mbers of the Moon Spirit faction from the Jia Nan Academy.
Among them was the forr leader, Han Yue, whom the girls had brought directly from the Central Plains.
The events involving Han Yue in the original work did not happen in this tiline.
Qing Lin had learned of the difficulties Han Yue's Clan faced in the Central Plains during her stay in the Inner Academy. When she left with Xiao Ming, she did not forget about this friend of hers. She stayed in touch with the situation in Tian Bei City after the group had settled in Holy Pill City.
A few years ago, Qing Lin and Xiao Yi Xian had sent a warning to the Hong Clan in Tian Bei City.
Although it was a simple matter for them, it had significant implications for the Han Clan. Those words were all they needed to free themselves from the oppressive shadow cast by the Hong Clan.
After learning that the Han Clan was supported by so Pill Tower powerhouses, the Hong Clan no longer dared to provoke them. This was exacerbated by the seclusion of their backing, the Wind Lightning Pavilion, due to the turbulent events taking place across the continent.
And with the recent joining of the Han Clan to the Heavenly Court Alliance... not to ntion the Hong Clan, even the Wind Lightning Pavilion would not dare to fart in front of the behemoth that was the Heavenly Court Alliance.
To make matters worse for the Hong Clan, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe, which was the backing of their backing, suffered a great tragedy where all of their high-level powerhouses perished. The Hong Clan beca so frightened that they even began to cede so of their territories to the Han Clan...
In a short ti, with Han Yue at the helm, the Han Clan beca the dominant force in Tian Bei City.
After the wedding, Xiao Ming and the girls had a period of leisure.
The girls began to compete against each other in a variety of gas. The winner would get to spend so ti alone with Xiao Ming.
When Zi Yan noticed that she was losing a lot, she complained that they were working together to bully her, which made everyone laugh.
Xiao Ming, for his part, used the opportunity to fully assu the role of father and enjoy his ti with Xiao Yue...
...
In a quiet courtyard deep within the Xiao family residence, Xiao Ming called for a small gathering.
Seated next to him were Xiao Yi Xian, Qing Lin, and Zi Yan, who were engaged in a light-hearted and cheerful conversation. The sun cast its gentle warmth over the garden, adding to the picturesque setting.
Not far away, dusa was entertaining Yue'er, her face blooming with an enchanting smile. The sound of the little girl's joyful laughter echoed throughout the courtyard.
The sight of Queen dusa, who was usually so regal and composed, engaging in playful antics with their daughter made Xiao Ming smile. It was a stark contrast to her usual icy deanor.
In front of Yue'er, this queenly figure seed to transform into a loving woman full of maternal affection. This transformation was captivating and touched the hearts of those who witnessed it.
After the tumultuous challenges he had faced, being able to find comfort and joy in the simplicity of family life made him feel fulfilled.
This peaceful life was sothing that countless people yearned for.
After enjoying this heartwarming scene for a while, Elder Huo entered the courtyard. With everyone finally gathered, Xiao Ming called dusa to his side.
...
"I've gathered you all here to give you sothing."
Xiao Ming waved his hand and a few drops of golden blood appeared on the table. As soon as this blood appeared, it erupted with a powerful pressure. However, he quickly suppressed it, and those in the courtyard barely felt any discomfort.
"Is this Dou Saint essence blood?" Qing Lin and Xiao Yi Xian were not unfamiliar with this. Xiao Ming had previously made gels from Dou Saint essence blood for them.
dusa and Elder Huo, on the other hand, were a bit surprised when they heard this.
"Exactly, this is Dou Saint essence blood, especially left for you." Xiao Ming explained.
He still had so Dou Saint essence blood left over from his ti with the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe. He had also defeated several Dou Saints over the years. Producing a few drops of essence blood was quite effortless for him.
