Building a long-lasting family lineage starting with genealogy

Chapter 33 A Show of Force, A Roadblock

In the blink of an eye.

The Xu family's wedding procession has entered Qingyun Street.

The Yang family mansion is still faintly visible.

Xu Mingshu's eyebrows curved like crescent moons, and her lips slightly upturned, revealing two small dimples.

"Little White, give a shout so the Yang family knows we're here."

The white tiger immediately let out a roar, the sound waves so powerful that even the sound of the suona was temporarily suppressed.

Fortunately, only Xu Mingyuan and a few others were on horseback, and their martial arts strength was enough to hold the horses back and prevent them from rioting.

"Xueji, you should at least have informed me beforehand," Xu Mingyuan said with a wry smile.

"Yes, we almost made a fool of ourselves." Xu Mingxuan also felt quite helpless.

"I forgot." Xu Mingshu stuck out her tongue.
"Let's keep going!" Xu Mingwei shouted.

not far away.

Apart from Yang Shichang, everyone else was startled by the unusual tiger roar.

The power contained in this tiger's roar is incomparable to that of an ordinary tiger.

"What's going on? Why is there a tiger's roar? When did tigers become allowed into the city?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Yang Shichang chuckled inwardly, thinking, "Let them be so arrogant."

It's only right to suffer a loss.

Followed by.

Then they saw the wedding procession come into view.

Among them was a white tiger with crimson-gold eyes, more than half a person's height, which slowly approached.

They all looked over at the same time, their eyes filled with surprise.

The man who had previously called Yang Shichang his cousin smirked and looked at Yang Shichang, saying, "Does the Xu family have someone who can tame beasts?"

"Brother Shihui, I don't know about that," Yang Shichang replied casually.

Arrived at the gate.

Xu Mingwei dismounted from the white tiger, clasped his hands in greeting, and stepped forward, saying, "Xu Mingwei of the Xu family has come to welcome the bride."

Xu Mingyuan and the others also dismounted and stood behind him.

Yang Shihui and the others were all sizing up Xu Mingwei.

"He is a handsome man, worthy of his cousin Ronghua, but looks alone are not enough."

“Yes,” said a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy in a brocade robe. “In this world, without martial power, no one can be protected.”

"If you want to pick up my cousin, you'll have to get past me first."

"My name is Qi Wenzhi. Which one of you is coming?"

In terms of age, Xu Mingyuan is closer, but he is not skilled in martial arts.

Charcoal Head's strength is about the same as Xu Mingyuan's, but he is at a disadvantage because he is young.

If given another two or three years, he will definitely become a strong second-rate martial artist, or even approach the level of a first-rate martial artist.

"Fourth Sister, you go ahead," Xu Mingxian whispered.

"Me?"

“I feel he’s not weak; no one but our eldest brother can handle him. But we can’t just let our eldest brother deal with any random person. What are we doing here?”

"The reasons for saying so."

Xu Mingshu stepped forward and looked at Qi Wenzhi without fear, "I'll fight this battle."

"Hahaha, is the Xu family out of people? They sent a little girl like you."

Qi Wenzhi laughed heartily and waved his hand, saying, "Go away, go play house over there."

Xu Mingshu's eyes flashed with anger, and she immediately said, "Xiao Bai, hit him!"

Upon hearing the sound, the white tiger, who had been quietly waiting at the back, immediately leaped up and came to Xu Mingshu's front. Its steel-like black and white whip brought a sharp wind and lashed directly at his abdomen.

Qi Wenzhi was taken aback and hurriedly retreated, but it was too late.

His body was slightly grazed, and he was sent flying backward, landing face-first in the dirt.

"What the hell!"

"roar~"

The white tiger's eyes also flashed with ferocity as it roared unrestrainedly at the crowd in front of the Yang residence.

Several people were forced to take a few steps back by Hu Xiao's intimidation.

Only Yang Shihui remained completely still.

"What kind of skill is it to rely on a tiger? If we were to use our weapons, we could surely kill this beast." Xu Mingshu was not afraid at all. "Being able to command beasts is my skill. If you're not convinced, come out and compete with me, Xiaobai."

"No, no, no, it's such a good day, seeing blood is bad luck."

Yang Shichang quickly stopped him.

“Cousin, it seems the Xu family isn’t entirely without merit.”

Yang Shihui suddenly spoke up, looking at Xu Mingwei, "My uncle said you're quite strong, with the potential to become a grandmaster. How about we have a match? If you win, I won't stop you anymore."

"Please." Xu Mingwei didn't waste any words.

The two immediately engaged in combat.

bang bang bang~
After several moves, neither side could gain the upper hand.

Xu Mingshu asked curiously, "Brother Shichang, this person is really amazing. He was actually able to fight against my older brother."

Yang Shichang patted her head and said, "Don't underestimate people."

“My cousin is twenty-one years old this year. He is also at the peak of the acquired realm. If he can settle down for a few more months, he will take the Qi-inducing pill to break through to the innate realm. He is a rare genius in our family’s generation.”

“That’s still not as good as my older brother. My older brother is only nineteen.” Xu Mingshu sneered.

"Perhaps, but the Yang family's foundation is incomparable to that of the Xu family, so it's hard to say what the future holds."

Then Yang Shichang added, "My brother-in-law is indeed a prodigy in Yuehu County, but the truly powerful ones are those who became innate martial artists before the age of twenty."

"Hmph, my older brother won't lose," Xu Mingshu said firmly again.

"Brother Xu, you are indeed very capable. It is not easy for a small county to produce someone like you. But if you can't beat me, don't expect me to let you into the Yang Mansion."

Xu Mingwei stood tall and imposing, his gaze sharp and unwavering as he quietly observed Yang Shihui.

"Brother Yang, you're deliberately making things difficult for me, then I won't hold back either."

"Just make your move," Yang Shichang said confidently.

He wouldn't dare claim to be invincible in the prefectural city, but in a county town, he was confident he could sweep aside all opponents.

After all, the martial arts and techniques of the Yang family were unmatched by any small family in the county.

"Brother Yang, your martial arts skills are indeed exquisite, but I, Xu, can also overcome them with sheer force."

Xu Mingwei no longer held back.

The internal energy surges and circulates throughout the body.

A simple, unadorned punch, yet it was like a pillar reaching to the heavens, striking straight at the heart of the enemy.

Yang Shichang initially underestimated the punch, but as soon as the wind from the punch hit him, he immediately understood the mystery behind this seemingly ordinary punch.

One force can defeat ten!

"Xuangui Hand!"

Yang Shichang tried to use this martial art to deflect the force, but Xu Mingwei's strength far exceeded his. Even though some of the force was deflected, he still managed to break free of the arm that had wrapped around him.

yah~
His sleeve ripped open.

He was struck in the chest and staggered back more than ten steps before stopping with a muffled groan.

A sweet taste welled up in his throat, but he swallowed it back down.

"Cousin!"

A group of Yang family members spoke up, their faces showing concern.

Yang Shihui waved his hand and laughed heartily at Xu Mingwei, "What a brilliant example of brute force overcoming all techniques!"

"You are good enough for my cousin."

Since Yang Shihui had already made his stance clear, the other members of the Yang family naturally dared not object anymore.

"Thank you."

Xu Mingwei clasped his hands in a fist and smiled slightly, about to lead the people inside.

"Wait a minute," Yang Shichang stopped him. "My cousin has passed the test, but I'm the one who has to pass it."

"Brother Shichang, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but you'd better not make things difficult for yourself," Xu Mingshu said with a smile.

"Little Snow Clears, I never said I wanted a martial arts contest." Yang Shichang smirked. "My dear brother-in-law, if you want to go in, first compose a poem to urge you to get married!"

"Luckily, I was prepared." Xu Mingwei breathed a sigh of relief. "Then listen carefully."

"The brocade-draped carriages and fragrant carts stop at Liujin, and the painted halls and silver candles illuminate the auspicious day."

She applies new makeup in the mirror, and wipes away old dust before the tortoiseshell curtain.

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, the entire hall erupted in cheers and thunderous applause.

Then Xu Mingwei paced back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, and then said:
"Do not say that the fairy maidens are slow to dress up; know that Xiao Shi frequently visited the gates of the palace."

The east wind has already prepared the golden bridle, awaiting only your skillful combing of your cloud-like hair.
