Now that she stood up against Luo Yujie, that was a bit….
Thinking about this, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but looked over towhere her father was. Cheng Biyuan, on the master seat, noticed her look winkedat her.
Cough, cough, cough….
Cheng Xiao Xiao almost choked to death. She had never seen the playfulside of her always serious father!
“Yuqin, what are you talking about? What are you saying? I just wantedthe kids to spend more time together, what is wrong with that? Do you feel thatnow that the Cheng’s are better off than us, you can just abandon us? If that’sthe case, I will tell mom when I get back. What is the meaning of this all? Ionly have our family’s interest in mind, what is wrong with that….”
Luo Yujie completely let out her true self – frivolous and full ofexaggeration. Needless to say, using family ties as her leverage, knowing fullwell that was the most important thing for Luo Yuqin.
After her sister’s performance, Mrs. Cheng started to soften up herstance all over again. Seeing that, Cheng Xiao Xiao stood up and said, “Mom,dad, I feel a little dizzy. You guys keep chatting, I am going to take a napback in my room!”
“Yes, you should go get some more rest, Xiao Xiao. You’ve only gotten4-6 hours of sleep, of course you’d feel dizzy!” Normally speaking, cultivatorscould easy go a day or two without sleeping and not feel anything, but ChengBiyuan played along.
Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and left the living room.
“Xiao Xiao, how could you??” Luo Yujie couldn’t believe what she wa.s.saying and started shouting behind Cheng Xiao Xiao.
At this point, Mrs. Cheng was totally annoyed and she scolded Luo Yujielightly, “Yujie jie, that’s enough. You want to go take a trip to town,you should start heading out before it gets any later. No need to cause a scenehere!”
“You…”
Cheng Xiao Xiao, who had just walked out of the living room, heard theconversation behind her and couldn’t help but smiled. She wonder what herfather had told her mother last night that had caused her to stood up and telloff the Tian’s!
Even though what had happened at the Cheng’s the night before only tookplace half a day ago, yet the ones that need to know had all found out aboutthe incident already and they were all stunned.
“Is this true?” asked Zhu Xiangyu incredulously at the Lai Yue Inn.
With a severe look, Deacon Bai replied, “A hundred percent true. Our spysaw it with his own eyes that the martial emperor simply disappeared into thinair!”
The news that there was a martial emperor wasn’t what had stunned ZhuXiangyu; what he found even more shocking was how did Cheng Xiao Xiao made themartial emperor disappeared into thin air!
Naturally Zhu Xiangyu understood full well how powerful a martialemperor was. He had a few of them on his payroll at his Green Mountain Manor,but that wasn’t the point. The most important point was the saying that:Everybody below a martial emperor are nothing but ants.
A simply line for a simple concept – the difference between a martialemperor and a martial king. It wasn’t just a small hump between the two, it’slike night and day. It was nothing but a piece of cake for a martial emperor tokill a martial king, even though they were only one level apart.
The different between a martial king and a martial spiritualist was alsoone level, but it was much harder for a martial king to kill a martialspiritualist. In fact, it was even possible for a martial spiritualist to killa martial king.
As far as Zhu Xiangyu was aware, Cheng Xiao Xiaohad just broken through to the level of martial master. Somehow she was able toface the life and death circ.u.mstances, and even caused the martial emperor todisappear. This was just too bizarre and he could not explain it with any ofhis current knowledge.
