Chapter 1414: Frog in the Well

~8 min read 1,425 words

At this time, He Yingxiu had not rested.

She and her daughter were lying on the bed at the Buckingham Palace Hotel in Jin Ling, chatting non-stop.

He Yingxiu was in a great mood at this time.

This was something she hadn't had for so many years.

Today, for her, was simply more unexpected than being favored by heaven and blessed by Bodhisattva.

Her daughter was still alive, her cultivation had made a huge breakthrough, and she had even leaped to become the number one person in the He family in a hundred years.

Even she, a disabled person, had followed and received a great opportunity.

Moreover, Ye Chen also promised the He family five pills and one hundred million RMB every year. For the He family, this was absolutely the rarest and most precious opportunity in hundreds of years.

Originally, she couldn't wait to rush back and tell her father about it.

However, after all, she hadn't seen her daughter for so long, which could almost be described as experiencing life and death.

Therefore, she planned to stay in Jin Ling tonight to accompany Ruoli and return to Mo City tomorrow morning.

After all, mother and daughter had too many intimate things to say to each other.

At this time, Su Ruoli was vividly describing to her mother the situation when Ye Chen saved her at sea.

He Yingxiu looked at her daughter's excited expression like a young girl, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This Ye Chen can actually turn her daughter, who was previously expressionless and extremely cold, into such a cheerful and shy young girl. His charm is really unimaginably great..."

"However, this is good for Ruoli. She was too cold before, and was trained into a cold-blooded killer in the Su family, completely reduced to a killing machine. Seeing her regain the appearance that a normal girl should have, I, as a mother, feel much more gratified..."

Just at this moment, He Yingxiu's mobile phone suddenly rang.

She smiled and said to Su Ruoli: "Ruoli, hand Mom's phone to Mom."

Su Ruoli hurriedly reached out, grabbed the phone that was charging from the bedside table, looked down, and saw that the caller name was Father. She was immediately surprised: "Mom, it's Grandfather calling!"

"Is it?" He Yingxiu hurriedly said: "Your grandfather calling so late must have something important. Give it to me quickly."

Su Ruoli nodded and reminded: "Mom, don't forget that we promised Young Master Ye not to reveal my situation to the outside world. You must not let it slip later!"

He Yingxiu said solemnly: "Don't worry, Mom knows what she's doing. You stop talking first."

After finishing, she answered the phone and asked: "Dad, calling so late, is there anything?"

He Hongsheng said awkwardly: "Yingxiu... there is something, Dad has to tell you. Don't get angry after hearing it."

He Yingxiu hurriedly said: "Dad, tell me."

He Hongsheng coughed twice and said: "Ahem... it's like this... tonight, Su Anshun suddenly came to Mo City..."

"Su Anshun?!" He Yingxiu immediately frowned and asked: "What is he doing in Mo City?!"

He Hongsheng said: "It's like this, Master Su sent him over, hoping to put aside the grudges with the He family and cooperate again..."

"Cooperate again?!" He Yingxiu immediately exploded and said angrily: "Dad! Su Chengfeng harmed Ruoli. Ruoli is not only your granddaughter, but also his own granddaughter! This kind of person has no family affection or human feelings in his eyes at all. The He family cannot have any more dealings with him!"

He Hongsheng sighed and said helplessly: "Yingxiu, Dad understands all these things you said. To tell you the truth, Dad hates Su Chengfeng just as much as you do, and even wishes to kill him quickly. But what is the use of that? We have no way to fight the Su family. You have known this for a long time. Precisely because of this, after Ruoli's accident, we chose to leave the Su family, but didn't choose to go to the Su family to hold them accountable. In the final analysis, the gap in strength is still too great..."

He Yingxiu said angrily: "I admit the gap in strength is too great. I have never thought about letting the He family fight the Su family or letting the He family avenge Ruoli. So when we left the Su family and endured Ruoli's matter, I personally accepted it..."

Speaking of this, He Yingxiu blurted out again: "What I cannot accept is that you have now decided to cooperate with the Su family again. Isn't this equivalent to seeking skin from a tiger?!"

He Hongsheng sighed: "Yingxiu! The price offered by the Su family this time is really something I cannot refuse. I have to consider not only you and Ruoli, but also the entire He family. The He family is currently in a difficult situation. Among our family of more than a hundred people, half are old, weak, women, and children, and half are practicing martial arts. Among these hundred people, not a single one can make money. Every one of them is a mouth waiting to be fed!"

"Recently, the entire He family has been frantically cutting expenses. The living expenses of the elderly and children have been greatly reduced, and the medicinal distribution for practitioners has been cut by more than half. If this continues, in less than five years, the overall strength of the He family will open up a huge gap with other families. By then, it will be impossible for us to keep our seat as one of the four major families. I'm afraid we won't even be able to keep the top ten. The foundation left by our ancestors will all be destroyed in my hands!"

Speaking of this, He Hongsheng said with some excitement: "But now, the Su family is willing to continue to cooperate with the He family at a price of two billion a year. With these two billion, the current situation of the He family will be thoroughly improved in one step, and even improved to an unprecedented new height. By then, the elderly in our family can have sufficient living security, and the children can also have sufficient growth security and educational security. More importantly, those younger generations who are working hard to practice can also get great help. Perhaps in five years, our He family will be able to leap to become the top martial arts family in the country, and the revitalization of the He family is just around the corner!"

Hearing this, He Yingxiu couldn't help but sigh: "Dad... the so-called eight major martial arts families, four major martial arts families, or even the largest martial arts family in the country, these titles are all empty and have no practical significance..."

"What?!" He Hongsheng said with some anger: "Yingxiu! How much effort did our He family's ancestors put in to push the He family to the status of one of the four major martial arts families in the country? You actually say these have no practical significance? Is this worthy of our ancestors?"

He Yingxiu said seriously: "Dad, before today, I felt the same as you, feeling that the He family being able to become one of the four major martial arts families in the country had profound significance and was extremely precious. But today I thoroughly understood that we are just frogs in the well."

Speaking of this, He Yingxiu paused and added: "Dad, can you believe that there is someone in this world who can use their own strength to directly open up a person's Ren meridian to the Great Perfection realm?"

He Hongsheng blurted out: "Isn't this a fantasy? Among the ancestors of the He family, there is no lack of experts, but who can really achieve the Great Perfection of the Ren meridian? The Great Perfection of the meridians is just an ideal state, just like people being able to live forever. It's just something to think about!"

He Yingxiu sighed: "So this is why I said we are frogs in the well. We always feel that martial arts are the most powerful strength and feel that the gold content of the four major martial arts families in the country is extremely high. But in front of a real expert, even if the entire He family is counted, we may not be able to defeat the other party, and we may not be able to block the other party's move..." ===== CHAPTER 1415 =====
