Cultivator With Modern AI - Chapter 693: The Zhou Clan Come

“It seems this little girl will also awaken her sword spirit, Old Han.” Ren Yao said as he watched Bai Zhongying seriously, especially after her sword energy enveloped her body, and it became stronger with each passing second.

Han Shuo nodded to him. “Yes, but she won’t be able to awaken her sword spirit any time soon, and she will probably be in this situation for quite some time.”

“En.” Ren Yao then turned to Xia Tian’s women who were practicing. “Look at them, they trained so hard for Old Tian, and their tenacity reminds me of the young Long Tian.”

Han Shuo also turned to those women but shook his head. “Even though they were diligent and serious, they couldn’t compare to the young Long Tian. After all, Brother Tian was abandoned by his parents since birth, and his adoptive parents also lived in hardship, so he had to suffer continuously. That’s why he strives hard to become the strongest, but he doesn’t achieve that easily either, and we are both living witnesses of his struggle.”

“That’s true.” Ren Yao nodded in agreement with that; he then turned to him. “Are you really attracted in that Xiao Yuxi?”

“Hmm?” Han Shuo turned to him with a raised eyebrow. “I am indeed attracted to her, but I have no intention of getting her.”

“Haha!” Ren Yao laughed and patted him on the shoulder. “Honestly, I’m still shocked to hear that, especially since during these tens of thousands of years, you only loved blacksmithing and never thought about women. However, you suddenly felt attracted to a mortal woman like her.”

Han Shuo was stunned momentarily and rubbed the back of his head. “I don’t know why I was attracted to Xiao Yuxi, especially since there is nothing special about her, even her cultivation and energy are shallow.”

“Well? That is love; one never knows when it will come to us.”

Han Shuo’s lips twitched at that. “Then how about you? How long are you going to avoid Huang Xiaoyin? She’s so crazy about you and even dared to reject the ruler’s marriage proposal just for your sake. Yet, you keep running away from her.”

Ren Yao shuddered upon hearing that and slapped Han Shuo’s shoulder hard. “Hey, Old Han! You better not talk about that woman in front of me! You know she was cruel to me, she even locked me up and tortured me for a few years, remember? So do you think I would be attracted to her?”

“Isn’t that your own fault?” Han Shuo asked back. “If you hadn’t peeked at Xiaoyin while she was bathing, then she would never have treated you like that.”

Ren Yao’s face darkened, and shouted at him. “Hey, Old Han! You were the one who pushed me that day, and I fell into Xiaoyin’s bathroom because of you. Moreover, you are a disloyal friend who left me behind after that! ”

“Hahaha!” Han Shuo laughed out loud, causing Ren Yao’s face to darken even more.

However, Xia Tia suddenly appeared in front of them, and he left the exhausted Bai Zhixian in the dual cultivation space. “What are you two talking about?”

“Nothing.” Ren Yao immediately answered with a shake of his head.

On the other hand, Han Shuo said to him as he was still laughing. “We were just talking about when Old Yao peeked at Huang Xiaoyin back then.”

“Bastard!” Ren Yao shouted and directly attacked Han Shuo.

Even so, Ren Yao’s attack was missed, for Han Shuo directly used his wind technique to escape, making Xia Tian shake his head at their behavior.

Xia Tian then said. “Let’s return to Capital City, Old Yao.”

“Then what about this little girl?” Ren Yao asked as he pointed at Bai Zhongying.

Xia Tian raised his eyebrows as he turned to Bai Zhongying, but he immediately nodded with a satisfied smile. “According to my calculations, she will stay like that for at least a month, so you don’t need to think about him.”

“All right then.” After Xia Tian said goodbye to his women, he and Ren Yao immediately left the Fortress.

As for Han Shuo, he decided to stay behind, for he still had to guide Xia Ning to master all the techniques he gave her.

When they arrived at Xia Manor, Xia Tian found Hua Xiangyue and Qin Zheng talking to Tian Qilian and the others. Besides, Sheng Ling was also among them. However, he did not find Feng Xian’er with them, for she had already gone to the shop.

“Why are you two here?” Xia Tian asked Sheng Ling and Qin Zheng.

Sheng Ling was the first to answer him. “I came here to talk about my mother.”

“Oh?” Xia Tian raised his eyebrows slightly. “Did something happen to her?”

Sheng Ling immediately moved beside Xia Tian, hugged his arm, and told him through voice transmission. ‘Since three days ago, my mother kept shutting herself in her seclusion room, and she felt guilty after dual cultivated with you, so I hope you can come to the palace to persuade her.’

Upon hearing that, Xia Tian sighed softly in his heart. ‘All right, I’m going to meet your mother tonight, and I want to accompany my daughter first now.’

‘En.’ Sheng Ling simply nodded at him.

Xia Tian then asked Qin Zheng. “Then what about you? Do you have business with me?”

“Yes.” Qin Zheng nodded to him. “I wanted to discuss and ask you for pointers on alchemy, so I purposely waited for you here.”

“I see.” Xia Tian then took Xia Qilian from her mother’s arms and teased her, and she also said to Qin Zheng. “All right, you can ask anything you want to know about alchemy, and I will answer your every question.”

As he pampered his daughter, Xia Tian listened to the various questions that Qin Zheng asked him, and he unhesitatingly explained everything to her, especially since she had been so kind to Hua Xiangyue.

Sometimes later, Ren Yao and Jian Wuqing raised their eyebrows and immediately turned to Xia Tian.

Xia Tian nodded in understanding and said to Zhou Xuan. “Xuan’er, your family has arrived.”

“Eh?” Zhou Xuan was really surprised to hear that. However, before she could ask him, five people had already landed in front of them, and she immediately hugged Xia Tian’s arms tightly as soon as she saw one of the man in their party.

Xia Tian turned to look at the man and frowned, for he could feel that Zhou Xuan’s body was shaking violently. However, he remembered her past stories, which made her leave the Zhou Kingdom.

“Xuan’er.” Zhou Ming called out softly as he kept his eyes on his first daughter who had been missing for over twenty years.

However, Zhou Xuan did not answer her father’s calls and hugged Xia Tian, trembling.

Xia Tian sighed softly, rubbed Zhou Xuan’s hand, and said to her. “You don’t need to think about that man, if he dares to do something for you, then I will not let him leave this place alive.”

Zhou Ming and his wife sighed after hearing Xia Tian’s words, for they naturally knew who the man he was referring to was.

On the other hand, Zhou Liang, the man Xia Tian was referring to, frowned and stared at him with a sharp gaze. However, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine and turned to Ren Yao, who was staring at him with a faint smile. ‘What the hell! I can’t feel anything from that effeminate man’s body, but I feel so scared for him.’

Unlike him, the young men and women who had also come with them immediately ran over to Zhou Xuan, and they immediately pulled her from Xia Tian and hugged her tightly.

“Sob! I miss you so much, Big Sis! You’ve been gone for over twenty years and never gave me any news.” The young woman said as she sobbed hard.

The young man was the same, he also complained to Zhou Xuan. “You sure are mean, Big Sis! I know you’re mad at Big Brother, but you shouldn’t leave us!”

Feeling the warmth of their bodies, Zhou Xuan’s body stopped trembling, and she hugged them back and rubbed their backs. “Jia’er and Song’er, you two are so big now, and I’m sorry I left you for so long.”

“It’s okay. I’m pleased to see you again.” The two answered quietly as they shook their heads.

Zhu Yuhe then sent a sound transmission to her husband. ‘They are Zhou Jia and Zhou Song, and Xuan’er greatly dotes on them. As for that guy, his name is Zhou Liang, and you must already know about their relationship, right?’

‘Yes! Xuan’er already told me about her reasons for leaving the Zhou Kingdom.’ Xia Tian replied as he nodded slightly.

Zhou Ming then pulled his wife towards them and introduced themselves. “You may already know, I am Xuan’er’s father, and she is her mother, Chu Qian.”

“I know. Yinyue told me you guys will be here today, so I’ve been waiting for you on purpose.” Xia Tian replied with a nod, then pointed at Zhou Liang. “However, he is not welcome in this mansion, especially after what he did to my wife in the past.”

“I-”

Before Zhou Ming could answer Xia Tian, Zhou Jia and Zhou Song asked him first. “Are you really my brother-in-law?”

Zhou Xuan smiled and explained to them. “His name is Xia Tian, and he is my husband now, so he is indeed your brother-in-law.”
