Harness Cultivator - Chapter 87

“I’m free at long last!” Lee Tao continued to scream the same thing at the top of his lungs.

While Lee Tao was enjoying his newfound freedom, a voice suddenly resounded, bringing Lee Tao back to reality.

“Though you may have escaped the Lee Clan, there is the big boss, Liu Clan waiting for you at home.” Liu Ying laughed cheekily as she knocked on the carriage door slightly.

“You have already wasted a lot of time screaming. We still need to pack our luggage there.” She added.

Lee Tao clicked his tongue with a somewhat displeased mood.

“Can’t you let your son have his moment?” He asked.

“But I thought I gave you your moment in our bed for the entire night?”

“…”

Now that Liu Ying was moving back to her clan, she no longer felt restricted by the constant gossip and schemes within the Lee Clan.

Thus, she doesn’t mind exposing aloud that they had fucked last night.

It wasn’t something shameful to begin with. Humans are emotional beings, and they connect to each other through skin contact.

Hell, even newborn babies are born naked without any clothes on.

It was simply because humans were afraid of being dirty by the environment that they created clothes.

“Why so silent, Xiao Tao?” Liu Ying giggled as she glanced at Lee Tao.

Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

“Cause there’s nothing to talk about,” He then said as he boarded the carriage with Liu Ying.

Xu Rong, on the other hand, took the driver’s seat as she controlled the reins on the horse strap to start the carriage.

“Have Tang Lingling finished tidying my room there?” Lee Tao asked.

Liu Ying nodded her head.

“Don’t worry, Tang Lingling is one of my best maids out there.”

“Tch, are you trying to brag about how good you are at training people?”

“Maybe or maybe not.”

Lee Tao clicked his tongue. The more he talks with Liu Ying, the more secrets he unravels. It was a pain in the ass for him to try and piece every single clue together.

The carriage remained silent for a few minutes until Liu Ying decided to get cozy and sat next to Lee Tao.

Her hand slowly reached for his as she intertwined their fingers together.

“What are you doing?” Lee Tao asked.

She was never this clingy before, so he was surprised by her action.

“Nothing… I’m just exhausted after a long time.” Liu Ying muttered as she closed her eyes.

She remained like that during their entire journey to the Liu Clan.

Unlike any other clan in the Tianyun Kingdom, the Liu Clan was the only clan that was allowed to expand to the point of having an entire city for itself.

In addition to that, Zhao Qiang had also decreed that the representatives of the Liu Clan have similar authorities to a first-rank official in the imperial court.

It was an honor that none other clan had ever been able to achieve.

Time slowly passed by, and Xu Rong suddenly pulled the reins on the horse slightly as she stopped the carriage.

“We have arrived, Madam Liu.” Xu Rong said as she knocked on the door slightly.

“Hmm, I see…” Liu Ying mumbled as she reluctantly released her hand from Lee Tao and got off.

As soon as she revealed herself, the guards of the Liu Clan quickly bowed in reverence.

“We welcome Madam Liu back to the clan,” They said respectfully.

Their respects weren’t faked or anything as they held genuine respect for Madam Liu.

It was clear to Lee Tao that Liu Ying’s reputation in the Liu Clan was unfathomable.

“There’s no need to be that polite,” Liu Ying chuckled softly as she waved her hand.

“I’m just coming back home after a long time, and it’s not something special.” She added.

Before the guards were able to reply, a loud rumbling sound echoed from inside as a bearded man spread his arm wide open.

He then proceeded to dash forward and embraced Liu Ying tightly.

His action was extremely fast, and before Xu Rong could even react, she heard him shouting aloud.

“Elder Sister, you have finally returned after a long time.” The man cried aloud as tears began seeping through his eyelid.

Meanwhile, Liu Ying held a disbelief expression as she tried to push him away.

“How old are you already? Why are you still acting like a little kid in front of me, Liu Zheng?” Liu Ying scolded harshly as she twisted his ears.

Liu Zheng could only make a pitiful expression as he pleaded for forgiveness.

“Ow ow ow, Elder Sister, please calm your anger. This little brother is merely too excited that you have finally returned.”

“Hmph, the next time you behave so unruly, then I will twist your ears until it turns into a pig ear.” Liu Ying said as she released her hand that was twisting his ears.

And she continued, “You are currently the Patriarch of the Liu Clan, so you must always be mindful of your conduct. We are still outside, and if people were to see the Patriarch acting like a little kid, what face would our Liu Clan have?”

Liu Zheng nodded his head vigorously.

“O-Of course, Elder Sister. I shall be mindful of my behavior from now on.” Liu Zheng said.

Despite being scolded harshly by Liu Ying, Liu Zheng held no resentment.

Instead, he was extremely glad that he was scolded by her as that meant she would no longer be living somewhere else.

Liu Zheng gladly guided Liu Ying and explained the changes in the Liu Clan while instructing the other servants to carry Liu Ying’s luggage.

“You have no idea how much Xiao Lanfen misses you,” Liu Zheng said as he began talking about his daughter, Liu Lanfen.

“Hmm, if I recall correctly, Lanfen should be in the same homeroom as my son, Xiao Tao.” Liu Ying mumbled as she asked him.

Meanwhile, Liu Zheng became dumbfounded as he made a shocked expression.

“W-What??!” He exclaimed aloud.

“How did I not know about that?”
