Chapter 92: Temporary

~8 min read 1,574 words

Qingyu Furong Garden, in front of the arrow target, Su Wuniang Su Xi was still diligently practicing the Furong Flying Knife Technique. Every knife shot out, and the sparks that bloomed were like blooming hibiscus, dazzling.

Seeing this, Su Zhi's anger disappeared without a trace, almost forgetting the purpose of coming here, standing quietly on the side, full of relief, and full of regret.

With this set of flying knives, it didn't look like someone who had just entered Foundation Establishment. Even the few old people in the clan who had been in Foundation Establishment for many years couldn't compare. Thinking of those descendants who were not successful, he couldn't help but feel extremely regretful. If Su Wuniang were a man, how good would it be? He, the father, was ultimately irresponsible!

A set of twelve flying knives finished, turning in circles in the air, shooting out as fire, flying back as ice, circling around Su Xi's fingertips, shuttling like a dragon, and finally disappeared, but it was a bracelet worn on the wrist, which was a storage magic artifact that everyone in the cultivation world envied.

She blessed her father and asked, "Why is father here? Was the person kept?"

Su Zhi said, "I heard from Uncle Song that the one you chose is Liu Xiaolou?"

Su Xi nodded: "Uncle Song is right. If possible, daughter wants to choose him."

Su Zhi was a little anxious: "Why is this? Don't you know his background? He is a wild cultivator from Wulong Mountain, Wulong Mountain in Western Xiang, I heard that Wulong Mountain is a thief's nest!"

Su Xi looked indifferent: "So what?"

Su Zhi said angrily: "If such a wild cultivator marries into the Su family, wouldn't the Su family become a laughingstock of the world? This person is not good, change one!"

Su Xi stared at her father and asked: "Among those in Gualu Hall, who will not disgrace the Su family if chosen? Please tell me, father."

Su Zhi was speechless, but still said earnestly: "Su Wuniang, I know you have resentment about this matter, you gave up your life for the family... But no matter what, you can't choose the worst one, right?"

Su Xi shook her head: "Father misunderstood, daughter has no resentment about recruiting a son-in-law into the house. Daughter doesn't care about marriage, what she values is the heavy responsibility as a Su family daughter. Daughter wants to say, whether it is Qishan or the Jia family of Dongheng Town, and what Qian family, Zhang family, a person who amuses himself with chess and attaches himself to elegance, a merchant family that exploits the neighbors to make a fortune, a son of a pawnshop that lends money at high interest, and a water village leader who does business without capital, and... what other people are there? Forget it, daughter doesn't care. In short, these people, compared to the wild cultivators of Wulong Mountain, how much better can they be?"

Su Zhi murmured: "Father will choose again... open another marriage-seeking grand meeting..."

Su Xi smiled, her face full of indifference: "Father, you really don't understand daughter. Daughter's ambition is not here. Whoever is chosen, for daughter, it makes no difference. And, if we delay any longer, if Elder Wang of the sect speaks, what should father do?"

Su Zhi was shocked: "What have you heard?"

Su Xi said: "In the evening, Young Master Wang came, and he had a determined intention when he left. Daughter guessed that he probably wanted to enter the mountain to plead with Elder Wang."

The Wang family of Xunxi was an important branch of the Danxia Sect. The ancestor of the Wang family was the fourth elder in the sect, with Nascent Soul cultivation. If he was moved by the descendants who were obsessed with the fifth daughter, and truly wrote a letter to propose marriage, the Su family really couldn't refuse. If she was married out, she wouldn't be able to come back.

Su Zhi immediately dispelled the idea of not choosing anyone, but still said: "No matter what, change one."

Su Xi asked: "What exactly is father worried about?"

Su Zhi sighed: "That Liu Xiaolou, he... is a..."

Su Xi smiled: "Has a cut-sleeve habit?"

Su Zhi was surprised: "Su Wuniang knows?"

Su Xi smiled: "It is precisely because of this that daughter chose him."

Su Zhi was stunned: "Su Wuniang..."

Su Xi smiled: "Father don't have to worry, daughter has already thought about it, make a three-year agreement with him, and step over the crisis in front of us first. After three years, give him a letter of divorce. At that time, daughter, a remarried woman, probably won't have so many people fighting to propose marriage... And, during these three years, neither will hinder the other, the best of both worlds."

Su Zhi still didn't turn the corner: "Even if it is marrying into the family, there is no reason to dissolve the marriage contract casually."

Su Xi said: "So, he is a person with a cut-sleeve habit, which is just what I want. Divorce him, no one can say anything... And, during these three years, neither will hinder the other, the best of both worlds."

Su Zhi finally understood, but couldn't help but feel guilty again, sighing: "Su Wuniang, you were born in the Su family, father..."

Su Xi said seriously: "Father don't have to be like this, born in the Su family, being able to contribute to the Su family, daughter is only happy."

On this matter, Su Zhi only felt that he owed his daughter too much, so he decided to choose according to his daughter's wishes. What he felt unbearable was that if Liu Xiaolou was chosen, his daughter would spend three years in name only. Even if he divorced the other party, she would be a remarried body, and in short, there would be no good marriage to think about.

He had no intention of returning to Gualu Hall, invited Uncle Song out, and asked him to come forward to end the wine banquet and discuss specific matters with Liu Xiaolou.

Uncle Song didn't end the wine banquet immediately, but ordered to arrange a banquet and music in Gualu Hall according to the original plan. That was a first-class music troupe invited from Hongdu, more than a hundred miles away.

Just when the guests were appreciating the music with a sense of anxiety, a servant greeted Liu Xiaolou from behind and invited him out of Gualu Hall to a side room.

Liu Xiaolou thought to himself, this is mostly the Su family wanting to eliminate him from the candidate son-in-law, just don't know how much return gift they would give. He respectfully saluted the old man who had been following Su Zhi: "Greetings, senior."

"Old man surnamed Song, has been managing Shenwu Villa for more than forty years."

"So it is Steward Song, disrespectful. Steward Song called the junior here, is..."

Steward Song had already poured fragrant tea and handed it over: "Honored guest, please use tea."

Liu Xiaolou said: "Steward, if you have anything to say, please speak directly, the junior can bear it."

Steward Song was silent for a moment and said: "How much does the honored guest know about my Shenwu Villa?"

Liu Xiaolou was stunned. He really didn't know much. Just as he was about to brew his words, Steward Song answered himself: "Shenwu Villa was founded by the ancestors of the Su family. It has been a thousand years, and it has always been one of the main branches of the Danxia Sect. Honored guest should know that the Danxia Sect is one of the great sects of the world, so you can know the foundation of my Shenwu Villa. At its peak, the Su family had one Void Refining and three Nascent Souls, which were praised by the world."

Liu Xiaolou really didn't know that the Su family had been so brilliant, so he praised: "It is indeed a prosperous family."

Steward Song added: "Although it is not as good as before, the foundation is still there. Being able to enter the Su family's door, even if it is marrying into the family, is an honor that ordinary people cannot ask for."

Liu Xiaolou nodded: "Yes."

Steward Song sighed: "It's just that there is a change now. My Su family's fifth daughter has top-notch talent. She entered Foundation Establishment at the age of twenty, attracting the attention of various sects and families. I don't know how many young talents admire her, and those who propose marriage are endless. But the fifth daughter is unwilling to marry far away. First, she intends to accompany her parents, and second, she intends to revitalize the family name with her own strength, so there is today's recruitment of a son-in-law to marry into the family. But this son-in-law is not recruited casually,"

The more Liu Xiaolou listened, the more he felt something was wrong. If they really wanted to send him away, one sentence would be enough. Why use so many words? He blinked and said: "Steward said so much, is there anything the junior needs to help with?"

Steward Song narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Indeed, I need the honored guest to help, temporarily marry into my Su family."

Liu Xiaolou didn't understand: "Temporarily?"

Steward Song nodded: "Temporarily!"
