Chapter 176 Coming Of Age Ceremony III

Xia Ling, Leng Youxin, and the others were waiting in front of the gate to the garden that had been prepared for the banquet, because Xia Ling had sent quite a number of invitations to celebrate Xia Tian's coming of age ceremony.

The first to appear were the Liu main family, Liu ming came with Liu Mao, and Liu Meng. Even though Xia Ling and the others still couldn't forgive them, they still welcomed the Liu family's arrival.

However, there was one thing that surprised them, because Liu Meng whispered to Liu Ying that from now on she would be living in Red Stone City, she also said that she had divorced her husband Meng Jia. And in the future, she would take care of the Liu family's business in Red Stone City.

Liu Ying smiled bitterly at Liu Meng's words, because she knew that Liu Meng was doing it to get closer to Xia Tian, ??but she didn't say anything.

"The Ling Family of Red Cloud City has arrived." One of the guards announced the arrival of the Ling family.

"Long time no see, Old Man Ling." Ling Xiao immediately greeted Xia Ling with a hug. He came with his son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter Ling Yufei. He was then surprised to see the woman beside Xia Ling, and said to her with a smile. "You're finally awake, Old Lady Youxin. We haven't seen each other in years."

"I just woke up this morning, Old Man Xiao. And it was all thanks to Little Tian, ??If it weren't for him, I might still be asleep by now." Leng Youxin replied as she laughed.

Ling Xiao was somewhat surprised to hear that it was Xia Tian who had woken up Leng Youxin, because he knew that Xia Ling had invited many doctors and alchemists, but none of them had succeeded in curing Leng Youxin. Although he had heard from Xia Ling about Xia Tian's spiritual roots having recovered, he was also able to recognize his family's Divine Sky Stone, but he had never personally witnessed Xia Tian's prowess. He then gave the Red Tortoise Shell to Xia Tian, ??and glancing at his granddaughter, he saw that her granddaughter's eyes were fixed on Xia Tian's figure. He inwardly smiled wryly, then said to Xia Ling and Leng Youxin. "Old Man Ling! After this banquet, I want to talk about your grandson."

"Hmm? What do you want to talk about, Old Man Xiao?" Xia Ling asked with a raised eyebrow, then he glanced at Ling Yufei, and nodded in understanding. "I see, we'll talk about that later."

Xia Tian himself noticed Ling Yufei's gaze, but he didn't pay much attention to her, as he wasn't attracted to her. Even though Ling Yufei was quite beautiful, he didn't feel any vibes with her.

Liu Ying, Chen Xue, and Xia Ning also glanced at Ling Yufei, then they said in their hearts. 'It seems that this girl is interested in Tian, ??unfortunately she is not his type, and she may not necessarily accept his situation.'

After a while several other families had also arrived. But suddenly they were surprised by the arrival of a family, especially Xia Ling had said that he did not invite them, but they shamelessly came uninvited anyway.

"The Xia Main Family has arrived." One of the guards announced the arrival of the Xia Main Family.

Xia Luo as the patriarch of the Xia main family, he came along with his son Xia Sheng, as well as his daughter Xia Wu. The Xia Manor family's faces darkened upon their arrival, but Xia Ling shook his head at his family, and ordered the maids to take them to the garden.

"Hmm, this is really embarrassing, only a crippled do the coming of age ceremony to invite a lot of people." Xia Sheng who was walking behind Xia Luo sneered loudly, making people turn to him.

Xia Wu felt really embarrassed by her big brother's attitude, she then turned to Xia Tian with an apologetic look, and he just smiled at her.

But suddenly Xia Xing's sarcastic words was heard. "Of course, this is disgraceful in the eyes of a young master who lost tens of thousands of gold coins to a crippled, he even has to owe money to his own brother, until he can't gamble anymore."

The people present burst into laughter, and it made Xia Sheng almost vomit from Xia Xing's sarcasm. Of course, he still remembers the incident back then, he was even beaten badly by his father, after he came home from gambling with Xia Tian.

Xia Luo was displeased with Xia Xing's sarcasm in front of so many people, he then shouted at her. "You are just a little girl from the branch family, how dare you act so impudent, it seems that this branch family is incapable of educating their younger generation."

Just as Xia Luo was about to slap Xia Xing, suddenly a female voice gave him a warning, and they turned their heads towards the voice.

"I advise you not to do that, Patriarch Xia. Otherwise you will suffer the consequences of your actions." Zhu Yuhe said as she walked out of Xia Tian's room together with Zhou Xuan who had come earlier.

Everyone's eyes widened at Zhu Yuhe's presence, no one expected the Queen herself to come to the branch family event, as she had never even attended any other main family event. But now, she has come to this small event, and even protected the Xia Manor family.

Zhu Yuhe just nodded to them, then she said to Xia Tian. "My people have already started working on your design, Tian. Maybe in a week everything can be used, so I ask you to supervise the implementation later."

"Don't worry, I will take care of it later, you can return to focus on your cultivation after this." Xia Tian casually replied as he nodded.

But Xia Tian's way of answering Zhu Yuhe made everyone gawk, because their attitude was not like the Queen and her subjects, and they looked like friends, even Zhu Yuhe herself didn't seem to mind it either. But alas, they still didn't know that their Queen was Xia Tian's woman, if they knew about it, then no one would dare look down on the Xia Manor family.

Xia Luo as the patriarch of the Xia main family couldn't believe what he saw and heard, Zhu Yuhe didn't even treat him like that, but instead she looked to appreciate Xia Tian, ??it made him even more angry in his heart, and he immediately sat down with his children.

"Miss Yu Suya from Hundred Fragrance Restaurant has arrived."

Those families naturally knew about Yu Suya, apart from being the owner of the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant, she was also Xiang Yin's eldest daughter. But they were shocked, when they saw Xiang Yin walking beside her daughter, because she deliberately asked the guard to use her daughter's name. People started whispering, because they didn't expect so many famous people to come to this small banquet.

But they didn't know that all the dishes prepared for this small banquet were provided by the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant, moreover they still didn't know that Yu Suyin was the daughter-in-law of the Xia Manor family. Yu Suya and Xiang Yin greeted all the Xia Manor family members, but Xiang Yin didn't dare to look at Xia Tian, ??Yu Suya then said to him, ??as she laughed teasingly. "Congratulations, Xia Tian. You are finally an adult now."

In Xia Tian's heart, he had the urge to kiss Yu Suya for daring to laugh at him, but he dared not to do so in public, otherwise she would be angry with him. "Thank you, Suya."
