Chapter 65: The Frail Beauty Whose Life Was Extended by the Immortal Cultivator (20)

The Sect Master's wife finally couldn't suppress her expression. Ever since Xiao Yuheng's death, she felt something was not right. She spent some time and effort and sent people to the mortal world to investigate. Sure enough, they found something wrong.

——And she had thoroughly discovered the abnormality just now.

"Xiao Yuheng, you are truly rebellious!"

The spiritual power fluctuations of the powerful beings in the Spirit Transformation Stage were like surging waves, sweeping over like a flood.

Xiao Yuheng, who was only in the late Nascent Soul stage, was unable to resist at all.

His body trembled suddenly, his knees bent, and he half-knelt on the ground.

However, despite the tremendous pressure on his body, his expression was extremely firm and stubborn, with no intention of giving in.

He obviously has no remorse and does not think he is wrong.

The Sect Master's wife looked at her only remaining son who was so stubborn, and couldn't help but recall that many years ago when he decided to embark on the path of sword cultivation, he was also so determined and persistent.

For a moment, her heart softened involuntarily, and her originally stern tone gradually became gentle: "Ah Heng, let's end this matter here. I don't want to criticize her or a mortal. Just one thing, you must not have anything to do with her."

Having said this, the Sect Master's wife paused for a moment and then continued, "Wait a moment, I will cast a spell to erase all her memories of this experience."

"From now on, let everything return to its original place, dust to dust, earth to earth, and the past will be forgotten. You continue to be your sword genius, and she will be her mortal self. We will cultivate peacefully in Wansheng Sect, taking your brother's share with us."

At first, facing the questioning of the sect leader's wife, Xiao Yuheng remained silent. He just knelt there quietly, silently enduring his mother's anger.

But when he heard that the Sect Master's wife was planning to completely erase Qingwu's memory and ignore her, Qingwu was just a weak and helpless mortal woman...

Xiao Yuheng's expression suddenly changed. "Mother, you can't do that!" A grim look spread across her face.

"My brother and I have already given her our primordial energy. We are inseparable in this life."

"What??? You two brothers are really capable!"

Hearing this, the Sect Master's wife was shocked and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. She had never imagined that things would develop to this point!

His two sons actually did such a ridiculous thing.

Sharing a wife?

The sect leader beside him was also furious. He stared at the young man with wide eyes and shouted, "How dare you!"

Faced with his parents' rebuke, the young man, whose swordsmanship had been tempered since childhood and whose heart had long been as hard as a rock, did not show any intention of backing down.

Instead, he still clasped his fists respectfully in a salute, then looked up at the clan leader and his wife, saying sincerely yet firmly, "Please, Father and Mother, grant my wish. Since you just said you'd take my brother's share, I can naturally take care of his wife in the mortal world on his behalf."

"Besides, my brother passed away before he and that woman could even complete the Dao Companion Ceremony. So, let me complete the ceremony on his behalf. After all, we are twins..."

"Puff - cough cough cough." Xiao Yuheng vomited blood. The sect leader's wife was stunned and forced herself to suppress her heartache.

Xiao Yuheng actually took the blow head-on.

This swordsman who had never caused his parents any trouble was now gritting his teeth, frowning, and enduring immense pain that was unimaginable to ordinary people.

But even so, he still refused to give up. After taking a deep breath, he continued, "Before my brother died, the person he was most concerned about and worried about was his wife. Therefore, as his younger brother, I should naturally obey my brother's wishes and do my best to take care of her, and..."

Facing the shocked gazes of the Sect Master and his wife, Xiao Yuheng remained unusually calm, showing no intention of retreating.

He looked them straight in the eye calmly and said slowly, "From the beginning to the end, Awu knew nothing about what we two brothers were planning. She was even kept in the dark about the fact that her husband had already been replaced."

"In the final analysis, we relied on our abilities as immortal cultivators to forcibly seduce a powerless mortal woman. All of this happened because of my brother and I. It was our mistake, and we should bear the consequences."

"And mother, it's because of Awu that I'm about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage these days."

"You..." The sect leader's wife felt a sharp pain in her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Seeing that his beloved wife was so angry, the clan leader opened his eyes wide and angrily looked at his son who came to collect the debt.

However, the clan leader couldn't help but tremble at the thought of his other son who had died while collecting debts.

He knew very well that nothing could happen to his only remaining son, and the Sect Leader's wife probably thought the same.

In the end, he still wouldn't be able to do anything to Xiao Yuheng, and he must have known this for sure.

"Never mind. I do sense that you're about to break through a bottleneck in your cultivation. In that case, I'll give you two days. If you can successfully break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage within this time, we won't say anything more about your previous actions. You can temporarily bring that mortal woman back to the Wansheng Sect."

"As for other matters, we will discuss them later. But if you fail to achieve this goal, don't blame us for disregarding our father-son relationship. We will never allow a mere mortal to harm our two outstanding sons!"

Xiao Yuheng was very clear about this result. This was the best situation he could achieve at the moment.

He knew that his actions were undoubtedly forcing his parents to give in, but he had no choice.

Because for him, protecting Qingwu is the most important thing, and...

Deep down in his heart, he actually longed to be with Qingwu forever and never be separated.

——No matter what the cost.

But if this is the case, he probably won't be able to see Awu again in the next two days...

Xiao Yuheng slowly lowered his eyes, pursed his lips, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Son understands. Thank you, father, thank you, mother."

Xiao Yuheng bowed deeply to the sect leader and his wife.

The sect leader nodded slightly and said, "In that case, you should practice diligently in seclusion."

After saying this, he gently pulled up the still indignant wife of the clan leader beside him and turned to leave.

As the clan leader's wife walked away, she turned back and glared at her son who was standing there. It was obvious that she was still angry.
