Chapter 233 The Rise of the Xu Family (3)
"Father, Mother, come out quickly! See who I've brought back?"
Hearing his son shouting and yelling without regard for his image, Xu Jingheng scolded, "What are you yelling about? You're such an old man, why are you still so unruly?"
When Xu Qing and his sister saw their uncle being scolded, they covered their mouths and chuckled.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, it's us."
"Shuyi, Shuyin? What brings you here? People have been looking for you outside. How could you walk right into their trap?"
"Has anyone seen you come here? If no one has, please leave later. We're perfectly fine here; we don't need your attention."
Xu Jingheng was happy to see the two children arrive, but he was more worried about their safety.
Just as Xu Shuyi and her brother were about to answer, Xu Maoye stormed out.
"Why would you leave? Xu Jingheng, you're an idiot. The Qinghe family has been implicated like this for over two hundred years, and you still want to let them go."
You should know that you have a son and daughter-in-law, and two grandchildren. Why don't you think more about those two children?
"If it weren't for their aunt's family dragging them down, why would the two children be unable to find a teacher even if they wanted to?"
Xu Jingheng quickly stopped the old man, "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? Shuyi and I have already told you so much, why don't you understand?"
We've said it before: as long as those people aren't found, they're still okay. But if they are found and it's confirmed we're no longer of any use, then our family will be in real danger.
"Yes, Grandfather, we and my sister are a family. We can't share the good times but not the bad times, can we?"
"If it weren't for my sister, we would be lost somewhere long ago, and we would never have had the chance to cultivate immortality."
Xu Qinghe was also annoyed. For some reason, his grandfather had been blaming his sister's family for dragging him down in recent years.
At this moment, Xu Shuyi and her brother were also feeling uneasy. They had always seen how their parents treated the founding emperor.
Not wanting to put her maternal grandfather and uncle in a difficult position, Xu Shuyin quickly changed the subject.
"Grandpa, where are my maternal grandmother and aunt?"
"Oh, the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and your cousin are all in seclusion. I'll tell them about your visit."
Xu Jingheng was still preoccupied with getting the brother and sister to leave.
Xu Shuyin nodded. "Oh, where is my great-grandmother? I haven't seen her."
Xu Jingheng sighed, "Your grandmother was unable to advance to the Golden Core stage and has been gone for over thirty years."
No wonder the old man had become so strange; Xu Shuyi and her brother felt they could understand him a little better now.
However, while I understand his actions, I don't agree with how he treats his parents.
In fact, the family had long known that the old lady would have an extremely difficult time advancing to the Golden Core stage; perhaps it was all fate.
Although Xu Qingman possessed the fruit of the Tree of Life, which could extend lifespan by five hundred years, they dared not give it to the old lady at that time.
Without sufficient strength, recklessly using such powerful treasures could result in the entire Xu family being devoured alive.
Seeing that everyone was in a low mood, Xu Qinghe decided to say something cheerful.
"Father, I forgot to tell you, Shuyi and Shuyin are both Mahayana cultivators now. From now on, we will no longer have to fear anyone."
So, are you happy?
"What? Good, good, good! You siblings have become so successful! Your parents can finally appear in front of others with our heads held high. This is wonderful, hahaha."
After laughing, Xu Jingheng seemed to remember something and slapped Xu Qinghe hard on the back.
"You little brat, why did it take so long? You made me worry for nothing, you're really infuriating!"
Xu Jingheng was angry for no other reason than that if he had known earlier that his two grandsons had become successful, his father would never have said those words.
Although he knew his grandson wouldn't say anything, Xu Jingheng still felt somewhat sorry for them.
Xu Maoye was also a little embarrassed at this moment. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, he quietly went back to his room.
"Shuyi, what's the situation with your parents now? Why did they start a sect? Won't such a big operation cause trouble? Judging from the expression on Ancestor Xingfeng's face just now, he's probably going to cause you trouble," Xu Qing asked.
Xu Shuyi said, "It's alright, Uncle. Our family's strength is not what it used to be. Even if the three sects cooperate again, we are not afraid."
Then, the brother and sister told them that their parents had also reached the Mahayana stage of cultivation, and that their younger brother and fellow disciples also had extremely high cultivation levels.
Although their numbers are not large, their overall strength surpasses that of any other sect.
When they heard that even Xu Qingyao had reached the Void Realm, Xu Jingheng and his son were so happy they didn't know what to say.
Because Xu Meifen, her mother-in-law, and her two cousins were all in seclusion, Xu Shuyi and her siblings stayed at their uncle's house.
When the people of the Nine Yang Sect learned that two Mahayana patriarchs had moved into Xu Qinghe's home, people came to visit him every day.
At first, the brother and sister would meet, but later there were just too many people, and they got so annoyed that they stopped visiting.
"Shuyi, Shuyin, my grandmaster, and your aunt's ancestor have come to visit. Do you wish to see them?"
Upon hearing from their uncle that his grandmaster, the Donglin Ancestor, and the Ding family's Xuanzhen Ancestor had arrived, the siblings had no choice but to ask their uncle to invite them in.
Back then, the Xuanzhen Ancestor disregarded the relationship between Xu Qinghe and his wife, and joined forces with the Holy Sword Sect and the Hundred Flowers Pavilion to launch an attack on the Xu family.
If Xu Qingman and her husband hadn't acted decisively and fled with the entire Xu family, it's hard to say whether the Xu family would still exist.
Even Ding Mengling, as a descendant of the Ding family, would have been used by Xuanzhen to force the Xu family to appear if it weren't for the protection of the Donglin Ancestor.
The brother and sister really couldn't be bothered with someone who was so heartless.
But now that the Eastern Ancestor has also come, the brother and sister have no choice but to give him face.
"Hahaha, oh dear, these must be Qinghe's two nephews. I am the ancestor of your aunt's family. We met more than two hundred years ago at the site of an ancient battlefield."
The Xuanzhen Ancestor only mentioned that he was the ancestor of the Ding family, never mentioning the cultivation levels of Xu Shuyi and her brother, and acted as if he wanted to assume the role of an elder.
Unfortunately, the brother and sister ignored him and instead greeted the Eastern Ancestor.
Xu Shuyin said, "Fellow Daoist Donglin, please have a seat."
Xu Shuyi said, "Fellow Daoist Donglin has arrived. My brother and I should have paid our respects to you first, but we have been impolite."
Seeing that the brother and sister were giving him face and were willing to address him as an equal, the Old Ancestor Donglin replied with a smile: "No, no, this is the Nine Yang Sect, it is only right that I come to visit you two fellow Daoists first."
Seeing that Xu Shuyi and her brother ignored him and were chatting happily with the Donglin Ancestor, Ding Xuanzhen was so angry that his face twisted in anger.
Everyone saw his anger, but no one present seemed to care.
Xu Shuyi and her siblings didn't care, but the Eastern Ancestor felt that this person was too cold-hearted and not worth befriending.
Xu Qinghe, on the other hand, felt that he had already given his wife face by pouring her a cup of tea.
Over the years, he has repeatedly tried to harm himself and his parents, and he has never treated him as family.
