"Enough! Stop showing off! The dignity of the Great Xia royal family has been tarnished because of you. You must give us a proper explanation today. Don't even think about getting away with this!"
Chu Sheng adopted a righteous and indignant demeanor, as if he had Shen Zhao completely under his control.
Shen Zhao put away the book and laughed, "Did your ninth brother tell you that in front of tens of thousands of disciples of the Ancient River Sect, he cursed you, the fourth prince of the Great Xia Kingdom, as a good-for-nothing, a piece of trash who can't be helped?"
"You dare to insult me?"
“I didn’t insult you; it was your beloved Ninth Brother who said it. I’m just repeating what he said.”
"What a joke! You think you can sow discord between us brothers with such clumsy methods? You're too naive."
"So, putting the facts aside, do you think you can tolerate being verbally abused by your own clan in front of tens of thousands of cultivators?"
"Impossible. Even if he really wanted to scold me, he wouldn't do it in front of so many people. That would be asking for trouble and doesn't make any sense at all."
"How do you think your ninth brother's IQ compares to yours?"
"Of course they are not as smart as me. In the entire younger generation of the Great Xia Dynasty, who doesn't know that I am the smartest?"
"So you think it's surprising that your ninth brother did something so idiotic? Doesn't that just prove that you're smarter than him?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng's CPU immediately started smoking.
"Wait a minute, what you said seems to make some sense, but it doesn't make sense. I'm always so good to him, why is he yelling at me?"
"Because your ninth brother thinks he is the smartest person in the Great Xia Kingdom. He said that in terms of cultivation, wisdom, and methods, you are not even as good as his toes."
"Damn it, this little beast dares to talk about his brother like that behind his back. I'll definitely teach him a lesson when we get back. But what does this have to do with you damaging the reputation of the Great Xia royal family?"
"Didn't your ninth brother tell you? He claimed that his martial arts were some kind of unparalleled skill of the Great Xia Dynasty, that he had an invincible golden body that made him impervious to swords and spears, but he insisted on performing a knife-cutting-his-belly trick in front of everyone. What could I do?"
"So that's how it is. Damn it, this bastard is a disgrace to our Great Xia Kingdom. He makes excuses when something goes wrong. He's worse than an animal!"
At this point, Chu Sheng had completely lost any intention of standing up for Chu Yang. He only wanted to go back and teach his ninth brother a lesson for daring to speak ill of him behind his back.
But Chu Sheng stopped talking, and then the passerby elder from Taichu Peak immediately jumped out: "Chen Zhao, stop making trouble here! What do you plan to do about the fact that you injured my Taichu Peak elder!"
Just as Shen Zhao was about to retort, Dugu Xin spoke up first: "Alright, you idiot, shut up and sit down so you don't embarrass yourself."
The passerby elder looked completely bewildered: "Elder Dugu, why is that? I haven't finished speaking yet."
Dugu Xin: "Did your village just get internet access? Your Taichu Peak elder colluded with the Pang family, which led to him being beaten half-paralyzed."
The details of what kind of family the Pang family is are explained clearly in Chapter 63. You should be grateful they're not bothering with you; if it were me, you wouldn't survive the next three chapters at Taichu Peak.
Elder bystander: "Oh? Is that so? Alright then..."
Helpless, he could only sit back down, his face flushed.
As a result, someone soon stood up and criticized Shen Zhao: "Hmph, Shen Zhao, don't be so smug, our business is not over yet."
Shen Zhao frowned and couldn't help but ask, "And who are you?"
"I am Wang Shijun, a renowned scholar from Luzhou during the Great Yin Dynasty..."
"Wait a minute, I don't think I've seen you before. And what's your nationality and what does it have to do with me?"
“You have never met me, but my whole family had to move to Da Zhou because of you. You have to give me an explanation.”
"What the hell? Your moving is my problem? What the hell does this have to do with me?!"
Wang Shijun suddenly stood up and said angrily, "The current Empress of the Great Yin Dynasty has wreaked havoc on the court and acted against the natural order. All her actions have angered both Heaven and the people."
Shen Zhao hurriedly said, "Enough! Since it was the Empress of Dayin who did this mess, why don't you go find her? What's the point of telling me?"
Dugu Xin also said, "Yeah, after listening to you idiot talk for so long, I still haven't seen any connection with Shen Zhao. You're not here to get attention, are you?"
Wang Shijun panicked and hurriedly said, "How can it be nothing? Shen Zhao is the son-in-law of the Empress of Dayin!"
"Hahaha……"
Unexpectedly, Chu Sheng smiled.
"Are you fucking drunk? Someone who could defeat Duanmu Long in one move would actually become a live-in son-in-law. What, does the Empress of Da Yin have a big thing in her? That makes people linger and forget to leave?"
Wang Shijun roared, "What do you know? He is the husband of the Empress of Dayin, a betrothal arranged since childhood. I can vouch for it!"
Chu Sheng looked up at Chen Zhao: "Brother, is what he said true? You're not really going to become someone's son-in-law, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Kun became displeased: "Hey you, I've been putting up with you for a long time now. From what you're saying, it seems you have a lot of prejudice against live-in sons-in-law?"
Chu Sheng: "Of course there's prejudice. Sons-in-law, especially royal sons-in-law, are worse than dogs."
Not only does he suffer discrimination from the woman's family, but his wife also constantly cheats on him, and he has no right to say anything. Isn't that a miserable life for a son-in-law?
Jia Kun frowned and immediately retorted, "That can't be right. According to unofficial historical records, sons-in-law who marry into families with their husbands are all outstanding individuals, either war gods or kings of soldiers, or at the very least, business geniuses."
Moreover, the wife loved her husband very much and was willing to fight against her own family for him. Didn't they ultimately live a harmonious and happy life together?
Chu Sheng snorted coldly: "That's why I advise you to read less of those unofficial histories. The things you're talking about are extremely rare in reality."
