The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

"Yes, drink!"

After Yueyao said that, Helian Yun Shen stopped worrying about what happened during the day and raised his wine glass to clink with the one Yueyao raised.

After a crisp clinking sound, the two men downed their drinks in one gulp, and the servants who were serving them quickly refilled their glasses.

The two men raised their glasses and continued drinking!

While Helian Yun Shen and Yue Yao were raising their glasses in celebration, a completely different scene was unfolding in a marquis's mansion within the inner city of Tianqi.

A woman in her forties or fifties covered her face with a handkerchief and wept bitterly. She was crying so hard that she was so heartbroken. As she cried, she muttered something to herself.

"My poor son! His cultivation has been destroyed just like that. What kind of person is so vicious? Don't they know the meaning of forgiving others when they can?"

Are we just going to openly oppose the Marquis of Ding'an's mansion like this?

Waaaaah!!!

"Mother, you must stand up for me! It's all because of that guy named Helian Yun Shen. He crippled me over such a trivial matter."

My child's life is over!

Seeing his mother weeping bitterly, Dai Qian embellished the story and concealed the truth as he told her. His wife, who rarely left her home, believed him without question.

Those who cry are even more heartbroken.

Marquis Dai Chang of Ding'an, who had just returned from outside, heard this unsettling crying sound as he entered the courtyard. He walked into the house with a cold face.

"What are you crying about? I thought someone in your family had died! Stop crying!"

"Dai Chang, are you even speaking human language? Your son is in this state, why are you only coming home so late? Don't you care at all about your son's condition?"

Madam Dai, after being lectured by Dai Chang, instantly became furious. She showed no mercy to Dai Chang, who listened intently to her words.

He finally understood what had happened, but compared to her crying and sobbing, Dai Chang remained calm, his face showing no emotion.

This calm only made Mrs. Dai angrier.

"I'm asking you something!"

The voice rose a few decibels, becoming even sharper as it questioned Dai Chang.

Upon hearing this so-called interrogation, Dai Chang glanced at his son, Dai Qian. Stared at by his father's eagle-like eyes, Dai Qian instinctively shrank back in fear.

He glanced briefly at his son before turning his gaze to his wife.

"That good-for-nothing scoundrel has the nerve to ask me to uphold justice for him. He usually hangs out with his cronies, relying on my reputation, and has done plenty of bullying the weak and fearing the strong."

How many times have I hit him?

Have you heard of it?

I still do my own thing because you spoil me.

Do you think I don't know about this? Do you think I'm like you, living a secluded life and unaware of what's going on outside, and that I can be fooled by this scoundrel's few words?

He deserved it this time. He wants me to get justice for him? Don't even think about it. I'll arrange for someone to send him to the military camp tomorrow.

"When the time comes, give him a good fight and march, and I refuse to believe that the military camp can't toughen him up!"

Dai Chang's words severely shocked Dai Qian, and even Madam Dai was deeply shocked by her husband's words. However, upon hearing that their son would be sent to the army camp, they were extremely unwilling, and Dai Qian was even more so.

However, just as the two were about to speak, Dai Chang interrupted them.

"Don't tell me you're not going, and don't try to persuade me! I'm determined this time, and no one can change my mind."

"I've figured it out. If we let you continue like this, the Marquis's mansion will face utter destruction."

These decisive words shattered the last hope in their hearts. Seeing that the two no longer spoke, Dai Chang turned and left. At this moment, he had no desire to stay there.

After Dai Chang left,

Dai Qian then feigned pitifulness and begged his mother to persuade his father not to send him to a place like the military camp.

“Son, when the time comes, I will talk to your grandmother. Your father is a filial son, and I will not dare to disobey what your grandmother says.”

At that moment, Madam Dai thought of her mother-in-law!

I thought of Dai Qian's grandmother.

With her intervention, her husband wouldn't disobey. After all, his mother had stopped him from making similar suggestions many times before, and her words carried weight.

"You'll come with me tomorrow. I don't need to teach you what to do, right?"

"Mother, don't worry. I understand perfectly well."

Upon hearing these words, Dai Qian's fear of being sent to the military camp vanished instantly, and he became completely different from before.

On Dai Chang's side

After leaving there, Dai Chang went to his mother's place. His mother had repeatedly glossed over the matter, so Dai Chang naturally expected that his wife and son would come to his mother to pressure him.

So this time I explained it directly to my elderly mother.

To avoid putting him in a difficult position later!

"No, my grandson can't go to a place like that. If anything happens to him, my family line will end. This is absolutely unacceptable!"

As soon as Dai Chang finished speaking, his words and thoughts were directly refuted by his mother, and the rebuttal was exceptionally swift and decisive. Dai Chang had already anticipated this rebuttal, so he spoke to his mother earnestly once again.

“Mother, you’ve seen Qian’er’s situation. He’s been spoiled by you and Chunxiu, which has made him arrogant and domineering, and he’s caused a lot of trouble.”

This time it's much bigger.

He dares to provoke a master of the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm so recklessly, and this person is also very familiar with Lei Mengsha, the Young Master Zhuomo of the Lei family, and Prince Xiao Ruofeng. If we continue to let him go like this, our Dai family will suffer unimaginable disaster.

I did all this for the good of Daijia!

The trouble he caused before wasn't too serious, and I listened to you and didn't do it. But this time, no matter what, I'm going to send this bastard to the army camp to teach him a lesson for his temperament.

"If you dare to do that, I will die in front of you! So what if you caused a little trouble? You can just apologize later. I will teach this child a good lesson from now on."

I'll make him not do that.

As for sending them to dangerous military camps or border regions, don't even think about it.

Dai Chang's words still failed to win his mother's approval. Instead, he heard his mother threaten to kill herself. This was not the first time Dai Chang had heard such words, and he felt quite helpless.

He clenched his fists tightly and then released them.

"Mother, are you sure you can control this brat Qian'er? If he causes any more trouble, I'll beat him to death to prevent him from causing further trouble for the Marquis's mansion!"

"You bastard, that's your son! How could you say such a thing!"

Upon hearing her son's words, Madam Dai stood up in anger and began to beat the burly Dai Chang, scolding him as she did so.
