However, Xiaoyao had no intention of having any relationship with this gentleman before him, because he didn't want to acknowledge soone else as his father. Even if the other person had no ill intentions, this was sothing he would never allow.
"I might have Luo family bloodline, but I'm not your son. Please don't hold like this." Xiaoyao once again pulled away the man before him.
"Child, I know you resent your father. Your father was young and reckless back then, which led to so many mistakes. Now your father knows to repent. Co, father will take you to et your several sisters." The man still believed Xiaoyao was just harboring resentnt, because the previous few had similar emotions.
"?? Sisters?" Xiaoyao was sowhat puzzled. Were there no brothers?
"You have no brothers, so you're now the treasure. We'll all dote on you." the man said. He also had so resentnt about this matter—all the children he'd fathered were daughters, and all four he'd found were also daughters.
He also believed that among his seeds left outside, there must be sons. Now he felt this idea was correct—one had finally appeared.
"Well, as a returnee like , what places can I go to?" Xiaoyao went aside to ask the person in charge.
"This..." The person in charge looked at Xiaoyao with a bitter smile. You two go argue elsewhere, don't make things difficult for .
...
...
At this mont, anyone would think Xiaoyao was throwing a tantrum because he'd been abandoned for over twenty years, so now he didn't want to acknowledge Third Master as his father.
This feeling was understandable. This Third Master was indeed quite despicable, but this matter wasn't for these people to interfere with, and they certainly couldn't treat him as an ordinary family returnee in front of Third Master.
"Child, stop being stubborn. Co with . Our family will live together." the man said to Xiaoyao.
"Hey, don't mind this person. Tell , what choices do I have?" Xiaoyao ignored the man and continued asking the person in charge.
"This... Third Master, you'd better handle this yourself." The person in charge frowned and finally pushed Xiaoyao back to the man to handle. The man had the authority to deal with this matter.
"I'll handle it. Register him under my na as my descendant." the man said.
"No! I'm alone now. I believe there are many people like . Just register among the external clan mbers." Xiaoyao said. Most returnees had no factional affiliation in the genealogy unless it could be found.
Xiaoyao now only wanted to be registered in the Luo family genealogy, since he had Luo family bloodline, but he didn't want to be registered under anyone. At the sa ti, he wouldn't change his na. He would still be Le Xiaoyao.
If this point couldn't be accommodated, Xiaoyao wouldn't even register in the Luo family genealogy.
Fortunately, the Luo family genealogy had an external surna genealogy that recorded various different surnas. These were people who were unwilling to change their surnas but possessed Luo family bloodline.
These people were all children born from Luo family female bloodlines, possibly after many generations. They had their own ancestral surnas. So people, even when joining the Luo family, were unwilling to abandon their ancestral surnas—this was a matter of honor.
Why could the Luo family bloodline be passed down like this, seeming very different from the Xuanwu family? If the Xuanwu family bloodline was passed down through the female line, the bloodline would quickly beco diluted and eventually disappear.
The interesting thing about Luo family bloodline was that by practicing the Luo family's bloodline cultivation thod—the Moyun Technique—one could gradually purify their bloodline. Even with just a trace of bloodline, the Moyun Technique could improve bloodline purity. If one generation wasn't enough, the second generation could continue.
This was also why the Luo family could be so powerful in the past. Luo family bloodline was truly difficult to eliminate. Even after dying once, they could still recover to this extent.
The Luo family now wanted to absorb any clan mbers, regardless of whether they had external surnas. They needed them all because their strength wasn't enough yet—far from enough compared to the original Luo family. Perhaps after the Luo family returned to that status again, they would abolish this external surna genealogy, but currently, it was still allowed.
However, those with external surnas basically gave up the right to compete for Luo family leadership. Although they could beco core managing elders, they couldn't beco the Luo family head.
Therefore, sotis the Luo family people also liked using external surna Luo bloodline holders because they were their own people but wouldn't compete for position.
"This won't do..." The man refused without even thinking. He now had only this one "son," so of course he wouldn't allow him to have an external surna.
"It must be allowed, otherwise, consider that I never ca here." Xiaoyao said very firmly.
"I said no!" The man still refused.
Xiaoyao didn't respond to this. He expressed himself through action, directly turning and walking away. He didn't necessarily have to stay with the Luo family to investigate matters—there were other thods.
"Stop right there!" the man shouted, becoming sowhat displeased. No matter what, I'm still your father—don't be so arrogant.
"Have you changed your mind?" Xiaoyao turned back and asked.
"I..." The man wanted to say no, but at this mont people nearby pulled him aside and said a few words to him.
"Third Master, don't be so stubborn. This matter can be postponed. First let him register in the genealogy. When your relationship improves, you can change it later. It's not like it can't be changed—it's better than him leaving now."
"That makes sense. Alright, register him in the genealogy. By the way, son, what's your na?" The man nodded in agreent. This reasoning was correct—keeping the person was most important; other things could be changed later.
Xiaoyao frowned, very resistant to the term "son," but he was too lazy to correct it. He'd just treat it as a nickna—he wouldn't acknowledge this point anyway.
"I'm called Le Xiaoyao. This is my na and cannot be changed." Xiaoyao said.
"Since you're entering the Luo family, you'll be called Luo Xiaoyao. Let record this..." The man acted as if he hadn't heard Xiaoyao's last sentence and directly picked up a brush to record.
Xiaoyao flashed and snatched the brush from the man's hand, saying, "My surna is Le, given na Xiaoyao. No changes whatsoever. Otherwise, even if you register it, I won't acknowledge that person as ."
"This won't do..."
Xiaoyao turned and walked away again...
"Third Master, don't make things difficult again. This matter can also be changed. It's very normal for the young master to throw a tantrum. When his anger passes, won't you be able to do whatever you want?" The person in charge nearby advised again. He just wanted to get rid of this situation quickly. As long as Xiaoyao was registered, he wouldn't have to worry about this matter anymore.
He believed that even if Xiaoyao left now, Third Master would definitely drag him back, and the sa situation would continue. It was better to resolve it this way—then it would be Third Master's own business.
Modifying genealogy matters wouldn't be his concern later—that was the ancestral hall elders' business!
The registration here wasn't truly registering in the genealogy. It still had to be handed over to the ancestral hall people for registration. Such an important thing as the genealogy couldn't just be casually placed here.
"Fine, register Le Xiaoyao in the external surna genealogy." The man gritted his teeth and finally agreed. He also felt there would be opportunities later—for now, let his "son" calm down and not create a standoff.
"Then for other matters, Third Master, you can arrange them yourself. I won't get involved." the person in charge said. Originally, for soone in Xiaoyao's situation, they should also arrange accommodation and work. If he chose cultivation, that would be another system.
Regardless of which decision, Third Master could arrange it. This authority wasn't much—not just Third Master, even ordinary external surna managers could do it.
"Good, leave this to to handle." Third Master nodded, then turned to face Xiaoyao. "Child, co with . I'll first arrange lodging for you. Also, whatever you want to do, I recomnd you focus on cultivation. Although it's rather difficult, it has the most prospects. Of course, I won't force you—you can say whatever you like to do..."
Although this Third Master was sowhat neurotic, he was quite open-minded, letting Xiaoyao choose freely. Perhaps this was also because he didn't want to argue with Xiaoyao.
Cultivation was good, but it also depended on talent. Not everyone was a genius, and geniuses weren't common. Third Master had experienced this several tis. Although only one of his daughters was a cultivation genius, the others' talents weren't very high, disappointing him ti and again, which made him understand this point.
Therefore, he wouldn't place too high hopes on Xiaoyao. Of course, he still wanted to see, which was why he suggested Xiaoyao focus on cultivation. In fact, even with weaker talent, one could still focus on cultivation—after all, this could create combat power. Even if it wasn't top-tier, it could compensate in so areas.
Naturally, those born completely useless were exceptions...
"I'll go with cultivation." Xiaoyao chose cultivation without hesitation.
Since he could turn from servant to master, naturally he should choose the most relaxed option. Cultivation was sothing he had to do anyway, so it wasn't really a burden. This way, he'd have plenty of ti to do other things.
Being a servant was just for identity and to learn things. Now that Xiaoyao had the master's identity and the right to learn things, why would he need to be a servant? Of course, if necessary, he'd still do it, but there was no such need now.
There was another point: although his identity here was as master, on Guxing's side he still held the servant position and continued those duties. Although this servant was becoming less and less like an ordinary servant, he was still nominally Guxing's servant.
According to Xiaoyao, I'm still a little servant. The identity here is just a disguise. Of course, perhaps I'll make this identity official in the future, but I'll still work part-ti as a servant, and I have only one boss.
