Chapter 501- Wish of Her Mother; An Evil Person (2)
Hearing that, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldnât help but nodded. After all, Madam Gong was at the top of one of the Top 4 Powers on this continent. Everybody around her were of genius level. Naturally, her bar would be much higher than that of others.
It made sense that her uncle, who was just above average, wasnât good enough by her standard!
Madam Gong wasnât done talking yet. She carried on, âTruth be told, when kiddo Zixuan said she is fond of your uncle, I didnât scold her. I am aware that her feelings for him is real. Naturally, deep inside my heart, I do hope that she can find someone better. But, when I noticed that she was very down and out of it whenever she goes a day without seeing your uncle, I realized that I donât have what it takes to keep them apart.
âSo, kiddo Xiao Xiao, I know you wonât be happy that I donât think your uncle is good enough, but you must understand that, kiddo Zixuanâs dad left us from the rebound of his cultivation. I am the leader of Palace of Immortal Beasts now and Zixuan will be next after me. So it is vital that she find a man who could lead Palace of Immortal Beasts with her. That was the main reason I didnât like your uncle at the beginning.
âBut now, things have changed. He has you as his niece. I trust that you will be of much help to him. Plus, since kiddo Zixuan is so fixated on your uncle, I donât want to be the one to pull them apart, nor is it my wish to see my daughter hurt. In short, I have faith in you and trust that you will help out your uncle in the future. And thatâs the reason I am willing to accept him as my son-in-law.
âDo you think I am too calculated?â said Madam Gong as she smiled in a self-deprecating way.
âNo, I understand what you meant and what was going through your mind.â
Rong Jingshi shook her head and said softly, âMadam Gong, thatâs not true. Given your status, naturally you need to consider all factors. Plus, it wasnât easy to guard the Palace of Immortal Beasts, especially as a woman who had taken up full responsibilities. It only made sense that you wanted Zixuan to find a man who can help you. Even if he wonât be able to strengthen Palace of Immortal Beasts beyond where it is right now, but at least be able to defend it.â
Having said that, she turned to Cheng Xiao Xiao and said, âXiao Xiao, thereâs no need to feel bad about it. When you become a mother and need to protect your inheritance, youâd understand where Madam Gong is coming from and her decisions.â
âShi mu, Aunty Gong, I certainly have no ill will against Aunty Gong. In fact, I am happy that she was so open with me. Otherwise, there just might be a lot of misunderstandings,â said Cheng Xiao Xiao as she smiled tenderly.
If Madam Gong hadnât said anything about and merely objected to Gong Zixuan being with her uncle and spread the words that her uncle wasnât good enough for Gong Zixuan and that she wouldnât let her marry someone her âuncleâsâ age.
If that truly happened, they just might end up being enemies of each other. Luckily things never got that far. Meaning that, Madam Gong was a smart person after all and knew how far she could go.
âAye, of course I will need to spell it out. I worry that you wonât get involved. From now on, you will need to help out your uncle. I need my daughter to have a glamorous wedding. Hers canât be worst than yours!â said Madam Gong proudly.
âHohohoâŠâ
The other two chuckled. And that was the love of the mother. The kids were always above everything else.
Emperor City Chengâs!
Cheng Yutang, the housemaster of the Chengâs was looking at some of the reports that came in, frowning deeply.
Sacred Land Zhongyuan had hired so many skilled martial artists. That was very unexpected.
The other piece of news stated that his âgranddaughterâ had broken through to martial emperor. The news made him wondered if there was a typo in there and that it was meant to be âmartial kingâ instead of âmartial monarchâ.
