Chapter 1539: Purple Star River
"Yes, but she"s not here. Neither is my son," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Haha, good. Very good. I, Xiang Yangzhan, am also a grandpa now! Haha!" Xiang Yangzhan was overjoyed. But the joy on his face quickly receded as he asked, "Yun"er, your son is called Tuoba Lingtian? What"s up with that?"
Generally, a child would follow the father"s surname. Obviously, this wasn"t the case for Tuoba Lingtian.
"Actually..." With a bitter smile, Xiang Shaoyun started telling his father about the situation with Tuoba Wan"er.
"I see. For stealing his granddaughter, it"s fair that you give him a great-grandson as compensation," said Xiang Yangzhan in a reasonable manner. "However, you seem to have a lot of women. When you"re free, make more babies for me. Let me have fun being a grandpa."
"More babies?" Xiang Shaoyun found himself speechless. He really didn"t know what he could say to that.
He then called Yu Caidie, Devil Concubine, and Hu Meihui over. The moment the three saw Xiang Yangzhan, they realized something from his appearance and immediately turned nervous.
"Caidie, Devil Concubine, Meihui, this is my father, Xiang Yangzhan," Xiang Shaoyun introduced.
The three hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Uncle Xiang."
As none of the three were officially married to Xiang Shaoyun, they did not dare to call Xiang Yangzhan their father-in-law yet.
Looking at the three exceptionally beautiful daughters-in-law before him, Xiang Yangzhan praised, "All of you are true beauties. This stinky brat must be really lucky to have you."
The three blushed. So long as Xiang Yangzhan approved of them, they would have very little to worry about.
"Uncle doesn"t have any gifts prepared. I"ll prepare some gifts for all of you later. Also, if this brat dares to bully you, let me know. I"ll back you up!" said Xiang Yangzhan in a straightforward manner.
"Uncle is too nice," said Yu Caidie bashfully.
Devil Concubine said, "Uncle, Shaoyun treats us well. Don"t worry."
"Um. Shaoyun is the best," said Hu Meihui with a nod.
"Good. Good. All of you are excellent," said Xiang Yangzhan, who became even more satisfied when he saw how protective they were of Xiang Shaoyun.
At this time, Xiang Shaoyun said, "Father, since you have finished your cultivation session, why don"t you return to the sect and take a look? I believe Old Drunkard and third uncle will be happy to see you."
"Um. It"s about time I return," said Xiang Yangzhan with a nod.
"Ok. I"ll go tell the Guardians Guild about the Diabolic Dragon Clan"s plan. They are planning to use the entrance here to break through into the dominion. They are going to transfer their army from the other entrances and concentrate all their strength on this entrance. This might be extremely disastrous for the dominion," said Xiang Shaoyun before leaving for the Guardians Guild"s encampment.
Numerous organizations had established their own encampments around the area, with the Guardians Guild being the strongest organization in the area. Before their encampment was a ma.s.sive flag with "Guardian" written on it. There were only 12 people in their encampment, but each of them was no weaker than the Great Saint Realm. The strongest among them were all Rebirth Realm experts.
When Xiang Shaoyun approached, a young man stopped him and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The young man was very detached and cold, looking at Xiang Shaoyun with slight hostility. He was clad in purple and gold armor and had a purple crown on his head. A golden belt with serpentine designs was strapped around his waist while a spear with purple markings was held in his hand. Slight traces of lightning aura surrounded his body, clearly showcasing his ident.i.ty as a Great Saint expert.
He was Zi Xinghe, an exceptional genius of the Guardians Guild. As a Great Saint who wasn"t even 200 years old, he was as talented as Liu Qingchen.
Xiang Shaoyun gave Zi Xinghe a glance and said indifferently, "I have something to report to the guild"s G.o.d Realm elders."
Xiang Shaoyun was well-known enough that everyone in the area knew who he was. Since Zi Xinghe was pretending not to know who Xiang Shaoyun was, he was probably looking for an excuse to start trouble.
"Just report to me. Someone like you is not qualified to meet the G.o.d Realm elders," said Zi Xinghe coldly.
"This is too important. I need to inform the elders myself. Please report my arrival," said Xiang Shaoyun patiently.
"p.i.s.s off if you"re not willing to talk," said Zi Xinghe with his eyes narrowed.
By now, even Xiang Shaoyun was slightly angered. He ignored Zi Xinghe and roared, "Xiang Shaoyun requests a meeting with the Guardians Guild"s G.o.d Realm elders."
His voice was loud and clear, capable of penetrating any sort of protective barrier.
"For disturbing the G.o.d Realm elders, you deserve death!" said Zi Xinghe furiously as he stabbed his fingers at Xiang Shaoyun"s head.
His fingers shot out like a bolt of lightning, instantly reaching Xiang Shaoyun"s forehead. He was clearly attacking to kill. Xiang Shaoyun frowned and evaded the attack without suffering any damage.
Xiang Shaoyun was now truly infuriated. He had come with information for the Guardians Guild out of his goodwill, but this person was actually attacking him for no reason. That was unacceptable.
When Zi Xinghe saw that Xiang Shaoyun had evaded his attack, he moved and swept his fingers at Xiang Shaoyun"s head, moving even faster than before. His attack was powered by the profundity of lightning, enhancing the attack"s might.
A mere casual attack like this had reached the peak of what a Great Saint was capable of. Perhaps he could contend against even pseudo-G.o.ds if he got serious.
This time, Xiang Shaoyun no longer moved aside. He raised his palm and reached for the incoming fingers. He was much faster than Zi Xinghe, instantly catching Zi Xinghe"s fingers. As for Zi Xinghe"s lightning energy, it couldn"t harm Xiang Shaoyun at all.
When Zi Xinghe saw that, his other hand stabbed forth, aiming for Xiang Shaoyun"s eyes. Every one of his attacks was sinister and vicious.
"Scram!" roared Xiang Shaoyun furiously as he twisted Zi Xinghe"s fingers and sent a kick at Zi Xinghe"s stomach.
Zi Xinghe was a genius cultivator capable of contending against pseudo-G.o.d experts. But before Xiang Shaoyun, he was too slow. His fingers were snapped, and the kick made him crash heavily far away. However, Zi Xinghe demonstrated respectable resilience, not making a single sound despite his pain.
At this time, two figures flew out. One of them roared, "Audacious! For daring to hurt Young Master Xinghe, you will be punished no matter who you are!"
