Chapter 82 - 81: Top-tier Martial Skill!

Chapter 82: Chapter 81: Top-tier Martial Skill!

"I hope you can truly care for Yue Nan."

In the room, there was only Chen Xuan and Pei Geng.

At this moment, Pei Geng was not the head of the Pei Family; he was just Pei Yuenan’s father.

When he put aside his pride and almost pleaded while saying these words, Chen Xuan was deeply touched inside.

Of course, he understood why he was doing this.

In this world, men are valued over women, and women’s status is extremely low.

Moreover, he was the head of the Pei Family, which made Chen Xuan take special notice.

Thus, he assured, "You can rest easy on this point; for all my women, as long as they behave properly in my Chen Family, I will treat them equally."

After getting the answer he wanted, Pei Geng finally felt relieved.

However, with his experience, he further expressed his intentions, saying, "Then I leave Yue Nan to you, and also, if there’s anything that my Pei Family can do for you in the future, just speak up; as long as it’s within our capacity, we won’t delay it."

"Thank you very much, dear father-in-law."

Receiving such a huge promise, Chen Xuan was undoubtedly pleased and bowed to him.

After all, my uncle encouraging my match with Pei Yuenan also hinted at fostering good relations with the Pei Family.

Although he wasn’t fully clear, the uncle was always right.

Afterward, the two chatted for a good long time.

They talked about Chen Xuan’s situation and his thoughts on the black market’s western district, bringing the two closer.

It wasn’t until Pei Yuenan came in to call them for dinner that they stopped.

...

There’s no denying that today the Pei Family showed the utmost sincerity.

In the room, there were only Pei Geng, Pei Hu, Chen Xuan, and Pei Yuenan.

At this moment, Pei Yuenan was serving these three men.

This was specifically requested by Pei Geng.

Regarding this, even though Pei Yuenan wasn’t happy, she could only comply obediently.

If it were before, she would’ve turned her back and left. Who was she? The eldest lady of the Pei Family!

Even Pei Hu, she would hit if she wanted to, let alone do this kind of serving work!

"Chen Xuan, this plate of meat is from a mid-level demon beast. Although it’s the lowest of the mid-level, it’s still rare in Yunze County. Try it; it’s beneficial for martial artists."

Pei Geng pointed to a plate of braised meat in front of him and introduced it.

"Mid-level demon beast?"

This made Chen Xuan quite surprised.

A mid-level demon beast, even if the weakest, still had strength close to a fifth-grade martial artist, and mid-level demon beasts already had a sense of intelligence, making them very difficult to kill.

Unexpectedly, Yao Family actually had demon beasts of this level.

He quickly took a bite with his chopsticks.

"Fresh... tender..."

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but praise as he ate.

Not only that, after taking a few casual bites, the meat melted like tofu, sliding down his throat into his body.

In an instant!

He felt a stream of warm warmth appear within him.

Immediately, he felt more invigorated.

"Great meat! Truly great meat!..."

He was delighted, continuously praising it.

"Since my dear son-in-law likes it, take some back when you leave; consider it a wedding gift from your father-in-law."

Pei Geng showed great generosity at this moment.

"Thank you, dear father-in-law."

This stuff was indeed a rare good item, and he wasn’t going to be polite.

However, accepting this favor, Chen Xuan quickly stood up to toast him as a gesture of thanks.

This made Pei Geng’s smile even broader.

Since entering the Pei Family, Chen Xuan’s behavior had been decent, treating him as a father-in-law.

But it felt like it was all for Pei Yuenan’s sake.

However, the term "father-in-law" just now made him feel it came from the heart.

It justified pulling out the family’s cherished mid-level demon beast meat.

As the meal went on, the atmosphere became more and more cordial.

Even Pei Yuenan, who was serving the three, kept a constant smile on her face.

She felt warmth in her heart.

She knew all Pei Geng did today was for her, to make Chen Xuan regard her a bit higher.

Not just see her as someone exchanged through mutual benefit.

She couldn’t recall how long it had been since she felt this kind of paternal love.

Although Pei Geng cared for her before, it was more about her contributions to the family.

Today, he was just a father, nothing more.

And Chen Xuan also showed her enough face today.

Especially now, behaving more like a son-in-law.

At this moment, seeing the two most essential men to her, drinking and chatting merrily, Pei Yuenan’s eyes were a bit moist at the corners.

Even Pei Hu, who always had a lower status, was more daring now, calling Chen Xuan brother. That strong arm was even draped over Chen Xuan’s shoulder.

And for this, he was quite happy.

Under normal circumstances, even if Pei Hu were beaten to death, he wouldn’t dare to be so impudent.

As it neared the end.

The three men were all flushed, especially Chen Xuan. His originally fair complexion was now wholly red.

He wasn’t drunk though; with his strength just below the fifth grade, it wasn’t easy for him to get drunk even if he wanted to.

At this moment, Pei Geng suddenly said, "My dear son-in-law, there’s something I want to ask your opinion on."

"What is it, dear father-in-law? Please, go ahead!" Chen Xuan raised his head and respectfully asked.

"It’s about the Yao Family’s shop in the west district. They’ve approached me."

As Pei Geng finished speaking, Pei Yuenan noticed the smile on Chen Xuan’s face abruptly vanish.

The chopsticks he was about to use to pick food also paused in mid-air.

Feeling anxious, she complained, "Father, why bring this up now?"

Even though the Yao Family is stronger than the Pei Family now, she’d already informed Pei Geng of the feud between Chen Xuan and the Yao Family.

Is there really any need to ask about this?

Moreover, if they must ask, she could have sounded it out first.

"It’s all right, Yuenan." Chen Xuan gestured at her with a wave and smiled. Then he continued, "There’s nothing wrong with my father-in-law asking, besides, the grudge between me and the Yao Family is known by everyone. If I don’t make things clear, it will be difficult for him too."

At this moment, Chen Xuan was very magnanimous.

This made Pei Geng feel relieved.

In truth, not only had the Yao Family contacted him, but even the County Government Office had subtly pointed things out to him.

He knew well the relationship between Chen Xuan and the Yao Family.

It was truly difficult on both sides, and he didn’t want Pei Yuenan to be the bad guy, hence he took the chance to speak up under the pleasant atmosphere of the day.

The reason for Chen Xuan’s smile disappearing was because it reminded him of the day of his wedding when Zuo Qiu Ming raised the matter in front of the head of the family.

But it was refused by the head of the family at that time.

Looking at it now, it wasn’t just the Yao Family talking to Pei Geng, Zuo Qiu Ming must have put pressure on him too.

Otherwise, a single Yao Family wouldn’t have caused him such distress.

"Give the Yao Family the same as before," Chen Xuan compromised after much deliberation.

Of course, it wasn’t just for the Pei Family or Pei Yuenan, but more for Zuo Qiu Ming’s sake.

"Alright, I’ve got it now."

The issue was resolved, and it seemed Chen Xuan wasn’t angry, his smile reappeared.

Pei Yuenan felt relieved as well.

...

At dusk, the evening glow dyed half the sky the color of golden paddy.

Chen Xuan was the first to board the carriage, while Pei Yuenan was outside the carriage talking to Pei Geng.

In his hand, there was a new martial art book.

"Shattering Void Palm!"

The Chen Family’s most advanced martial art.

When Pei Geng had just handed it to him, he confidently told him that even in Yunze County, this martial art was top-tier.

With a single palm strike, a thousand-pound boulder would crumble like tofu.

Hence the name Shattering Void Palm, which would grow stronger as one’s skill progresses.

This was the greatest gift he presented to Chen Xuan.

Just when he was about to open the "Shattering Void Palm" to see it for himself.

A voice came into the carriage from outside.

"Greetings Uncle Pei, Yuenan, long time no see."

Chen Xuan immediately set aside the "Shattering Void Palm," tilting his head slightly to peek through the gap in the window.

It was Chen Qi from the Chen Family, dressed in white, with two attendants behind him, walking slowly over.

"Ah, it’s Chen Qi, dear nephew. What’s the occasion?"

Facing Pei Geng’s inquiry, Chen Qi responded sincerely, "I came especially for the matter in the west district to consult with Uncle."

"Okay!"

Pei Geng nodded, then said, "Why don’t you come into the mansion first and wait a moment?"

Upon hearing this, rather than entering the Pei Mansion immediately, Chen Qi curiously asked, "Is Yuenan going somewhere?"

"Hmph!"

In the carriage, Chen Xuan coldly snorts in his heart.

This kid’s performance is indeed impressive, that expression of curiosity.

Just as he’s about to leave, Chen Qi arrives, what an amazing coincidence.

Really not knowing where she’s going?

Indeed, these big family people are all so insincere.

Chen Xuan really dislikes dealing with such people, which is why he didn’t hesitate to collaborate with the Pei Family at Rushi’s suggestion.

Simply avoiding interactions with these people.

Of course, Pei Yuenan was also a major reason.

At this moment, seeing him pretend to be clueless, Pei Yuenan lightly asked, "You don’t know where I’m going?"

"Ink Lotus Pavilion?"

Since he continued his act, Pei Yuenan followed his lead.

She said lightly,

"Hmm, going home!"

Then she hugged Pei Geng and boarded the carriage.

Ugh! Chen Qi now felt awkward.

His people had always been watching the Pei Mansion, he himself was also standing nearby.

Waiting for this moment, hoping to meet Chen Xuan.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yuenan simply said she’s going home!

The driver on the carriage was ready, holding the reins, waving the whip, the carriage slowly moved.

Now he felt even more anxious.

Though he knew Chen Xuan was in the carriage, now it couldn’t be said aloud.

Really... hoisted by his own petard, wanting to cry but having no tears.

Meanwhile, Pei Geng stood aside, feeling quite amused.

In high spirits, he even jested, "Chen Qi, dear nephew, do you like that carriage? If you really like it, we have another identical one at the Pei Mansion. As your elder, just say the word, and I’ll send someone to take it to the Chen Family!"
