Xiao Rongchen was, after all, the head of a sect. In the ancient martial arts world, where people were often eaten without leaving any bones, he had seen all kinds of powerful people. Facing Mr. Lu, he was also calm and composed, not intimidated at all.
"Who is your big brother? Don't shout."
Old Master Lu stared at Xiao Rongchen with a very serious and cold expression.
When the old lady saw this scene, her heart sank.
It was too early for her to feel relieved.
It seems that my eldest brother is still brooding over what happened back then.
He just didn't show it when facing her.
Now that Rong Chen appears, the eldest brother will definitely blame him for the fact that she has not returned home for decades.
“Big Brother!”
The old lady shouted anxiously.
She didn't want the two of them to have a falling out.
One is her elder brother, and the other is her lover.
After decades of waiting, she finally got him back. If Rong Chen left again because of her elder brother, wouldn't all her years of waiting be in vain?
"Qingxue, Ranran finally came back, and I prepared a lot of delicious food and fun things for her. Take her and Luo Xiaozi to have a look."
Mr. Lu winked at Mr. Lu.
"Yes, yes, yes. Aunt, Ranran, Xiaoluo, let's go. Dad has prepared a lot of things since he knew you were coming. I will take you there now."
After receiving instructions from his old father, Lu Hongyan, the eldest uncle of the Lu family, immediately cooperated tacitly.
The old lady naturally saw clearly that her eldest brother wanted to send her away and deal with Rong Chen personally, so she couldn't help but feel worried.
"Grandma, don't worry. Grandpa is the leader of a sect in the ancient martial arts world. What hasn't he seen? Besides, my uncle is from your mother's family. He's just doing this to teach Grandpa a lesson. It's for your own good."
This is the case where a bystander sees more clearly than the participants.
It's obvious that Mr. Lu did it on purpose.
When the old lady heard what Xiao Qingran said, she was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and patted Xiao Qingran's hand, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
"Fortunately, you reminded me, otherwise I would have been stuck in a dead end."
A group of people left the main living room, talking and laughing.
Only Mr. Lu and Xiao Rongchen were left.
"Let's be frank. You came back so suddenly. How long do you plan to wait before leaving?"
Mr. Lu didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
Xiao Rongchen bowed to Mr. Lu in a gentle and elegant manner: "I have never thought of leaving Qingxue. This time I can come back, it is all thanks to Ranran. If it weren't for her, I might never see Qingxue again until I die."
Mr. Lu looked surprised and pointed at the armchair beside him: "Sit down first and explain your thoughts clearly."
Xiao Rongchen did not hide anything and told Grandpa Lu all about his helplessness over the years and the rules of the ancient martial arts world.
Mr. Lu sighed deeply after hearing this.
The scale in my heart couldn't help but tilt.
However, although he sympathized with Xiao Rongchen, he could not change the fact that his sister had suffered for more than 40 years for this man.
Since he already knew that the ancient martial arts world and the secular world could not intermarry, why did he still mess with his sister? He couldn't forgive her. He couldn't be soft-hearted.
"Since you said Ranran changed the rules of the ancient martial arts world, what are you planning to do when you come back this time?"
Xiao Rongchen stood up and bowed deeply to Old Man Lu. "If Qingxue doesn't want to live with me in the Ancient Martial Realm, I will give the position of Sect Leader to my eldest brother. I will stay with Qingxue in the secular world forever. If Qingxue is willing to return to the Ancient Martial Realm with me, I will take her back with me. In the future, the two realms will be connected, and we can come and go at any time. You can also bring the children to the Ancient Martial Realm to find us."
Old Master Lu narrowed his eyes. Xiao Rongchen's words were soothing to hear. It seemed as if everything was centered around Lu Qingxue, and he was considering her.
But he knew his sister's temper very well.
Qingxue will definitely put Xiao Rongchen first and consider his best interests, and will never stay in the secular world.
Thinking of this, Mr. Lu's face became quite ugly.
In the end, he still wanted to kidnap his sister.
It's like a feudal society in the ancient martial arts world.
Without the Lu family's protection, no one would know even if Qingxue was bullied in the ancient martial arts world.
What’s the difference between this and marrying far away?
"I absolutely do not agree with Qingxue going to the Ancient Martial World with you."
Mr. Lu slammed his chair and stood up: "Either you stay in the Imperial Capital. Or you leave on your own and never come back."
Xiao Rongchen clasped his fists and said, "Brother, I know you're worried that Qingxue will be wronged if she goes to the Ancient Martial World with me. However, I can promise you with my life that I will never let her suffer any injustice. Moreover, Ranran's status in the Ancient Martial World is unmatched. Who dares to bully her grandmother? When I bring Qingxue back this time, I will announce Qingxue's identity to the entire Ancient Martial World."
"You say it so lightly. You are a cultivator, but Qingxue is not. You can't be with Qingxue 24 hours a day. Sometimes, an accident may happen when you turn around. Do you dare to say that you don't have an enemy in the ancient martial arts world? You are not young anymore, and it is time to enjoy your retirement. Are you unable to let go of the position of sect leader? You also said that you can give the position of sect leader to your eldest brother. Can't you stay for Qingxue? What you said before was just a deliberate trick, right? You calculated that Qingxue would go to the ancient martial arts world with you."
Mr. Lu became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and in the end, he wanted to give Xiao Rongchen a few big slaps in the face.
"Brother, as long as Qingxue says to stay, I won't say no."
Xiao Rongchen naturally knew Lu Qingxue's character, but he still wanted to respect what she thought.
"Okay, now that we've come to this, I hope you'll make your feelings known to Qingxue before asking her. Tell her that you want to stay in the secular world and live with her. As long as you can do that, I'll forgive your previous mistakes."
Xiao Rongchen nodded immediately: "Brother, don't worry. I can definitely do it."
Mr. Lu scoffed: "Don't be so decisive yet, or you'll get slapped in the face later."
"Brother, you're overthinking it. My son, granddaughter, and grandson-in-law are all in the secular world. I actually want our family to be together."
Xiao Rongchen knew that Mr. Lu was prejudiced against him, and he also knew that he was the one who caused all the consequences, so he did not explain too much.
"Speaking of sons, Qingxue should have told you! The current Xiao Yi is not the real Xiao Yi. Do you have any way to find your real son?"
When Lu Qingxue first returned to the Lu family, she told Mr. Lu about Xiao Yi's ambiguous situation.
Mr. Lu only seemed to know that the current Xiao Yi was a fake.
The old lady never told him how it was fake.
"I already know about this. I was planning to tell Ranran and Xiaoluo the truth after visiting my eldest brother. I don't know much about the secular world, and I'm worried that if I do too much, I'll make more mistakes and end up harming my own son. Ranran and Xiaoluo are top masters even in the ancient martial arts world. With their abilities, they will definitely be able to find my son."
Mr. Lu nodded: "It's good that you know what's going on. I also want to meet my real nephew."
