Chapter 558 Shen Linghua's Refusal
Hearing that, Huo Lingxun wanted to agree to Huang Jinyuan's request, but Shen Linghua stopped him before giving them an answer. "I'm sorry, I have to decline your request, Brother Jinyuan."
Shen Linghua's unprompted response not only shocked Huang Jinyuan and his family, but Huo Lingxun as well. 'Hey, wife! What are you doing? Why did you reject it? Even though they weren't the main descendants of the Huang Clan, their position within the clan was very important.'
'Shut up!' Shen Linghua interrupted while glaring at her husband, causing Huo Lingxun to cower. 'Even though the Huang Clan is powerful and influential in Holy Moon City, our daughter has already found her future husband, and her future is brighter if she becomes his wife.'
*Bam*
Huang Jinyuan slammed the dining table as he stood up, and he asked in a high voice. "What do you mean by this? Are you looking down on my son?"
"What is your reason for refusing my husband's request, Linghua? Does Qingya already have a future husband?" Unlike her husband, Shao Yunxi responded more calmly to Shen Linghua's decision, especially since she knew her character quite well.
However, Huang Jinyuan had the opposite attitude compared to his wife, and he released his aura while threatening them. "I don't care if Qingya already has a lover, and I want her to be Xiaohai's wife, so you guys better not refuse my request. Otherwise, I will make you regret it by destroying this sect and your Huo Clan."
Huo Lingxun's face darkened after hearing that because no one had dared to threaten him before, but he also didn't dare act rashly against Huang Jinyuan, especially since his cultivation was several minor stages higher than his and the Huang Clan was powerful.
"I am not looking down on your son, but you have to remember that there is another sky above the sky." Shen Linghua casually answered him, although she was a little daunted by his aura, and she then turned to Shao Yunxi. "You're right, I rejected your husband's request because Qingya already had a future husband, and she chose that man herself, so I didn't want to hurt her feelings by forcing her to marry Xiaohai."
Huang Xiaohai's expression turned ugly after he heard that, and his fists were tightly clenched, especially since he was so attracted to Huo Qingya. 'Fuck! Who is that bastard? How dare he snatch the woman I want?'
"How dare-"
"Stop it, husband." Shao Yuxi immediately stopped her husband before asking Shen Linghua again. "Who is that man? Does he have a better status than our son? Is his cultivation higher than Xiaohai?"
"His name is Long Wang, and his cultivation is still in the soul realm."
Huang Jinyuan and Huang Xiaohai snorted and wore arrogant looks after they heard Shen Linghua's reply, especially since Chen Li's cultivation was too low in their eyes, and they could crush him without breaking a sweat.
Unlike them, Huo Lingxun remembered the conversation they had with Huo Qingya some time ago, and he also thought that Chen Li was much better than Huang Xiaohai, especially since he was the most complete cultivator because he learned all cultivation paths.
At first, Huo Lingxun didn't believe there was a cultivator who could learn everything at once, but he had gone to see Sikong Ye and Ouyang Qibo, and they confirmed his eldest daughter's words, so he finally believed that Chen Li was like that.
However, Huo Lingxun remembered that Chen Li was also a dual cultivator, so he felt confused about his wife and eldest daughter's decision. Moreover, his second daughter had already decided to pursue Yang Hao, and she would be his second wife if they were together, so he felt reluctant if his eldest daughter also had to share a husband with other women. 'Sigh, my daughters are extraordinary, and their future is very bright, but they made such a decision for their future, so I have to talk to Qingya later.'
Shen Linghua paid no heed to the two men's reactions, and she continued speaking to Shao Yunxi. "I've met Long Wang before, but I don't know much about him. However, Qingya decided to choose him, and it came from her heart, so I will accept her decision."
"Hmm?" Shao Yuxi raised her eyebrows after hearing that. "Long Clan? Where does that clan live? Why have I never heard of that clan before?"
"I'm sorry, but I can't tell you anything about his clan, Sister Yunxi." Shen Linghua said it with an apologetic look, especially since it was Chen Li's secret and she would not reveal it to others without his consent. "However, I can tell you that Long Wang is not an ordinary cultivator, and he is much better than Xiaohai."
Huang Xiaohai's anger overflowed after he heard that, and Huang Jinyuan was no different from him; even his aura became more intense, but Shao Yunxi asked them to calm their anger. "What makes Long Wang much better than my son?"
"Xiaohai's cultivation has indeed reached the Heaven Realm, but he received many resources from your two clans." Shao Yunxi did not deny Shen Linghua's words, and their two clans had indeed helped her son quite a lot. "Even though Long Wang's cultivation is still in the soul realm, he is still very young, 22 years old to be exact, and he is a grand master alchemist."
"What?" The three guests screamed in shock after hearing that, but Shao Yunxi put on a doubtful expression and asked again. "Are you serious about that, Linghua? How could a kid that old become a grand master alchemist?"
"I'm telling you the truth, Sister Yunxi." Shen Linghua replied as she nodded. "Besides, Long Wang is a sword cultivator and a body cultivator, and he also told Ouyang Qibo that he is currently learning blacksmithing with his master."
*Bam*
Once again, Huang Jinyuan slammed into the dining table, and he shouted at Shen Linghua. "You must be bragging to look down on my son! I would never have believed that a snotty brat at that age could learn everything at once."
"It's up to you whether you want to believe it or not, but I've told you the truth." Shen Linghua replied to him with a casual shrug. "Moreover, Sikong Ye and Ouyang Qibo should be in the city now, so you can go meet them if you want to prove the truth of my words about Long Wang."
Huang Jinyuan glared at Shen Linghua for a while before he dashed away, and Huang Xiaohai immediately followed his father, especially since he wanted to prove the truth himself.
"You can go with them, husband." Huo Lingxun sighed softly and nodded to his wife, and he followed the two men in a hurry. After they left, Shen Linghua spoke to Shao Yunxi again. "You've known me for a long time, so you should know that I have no intention of looking down on your son, right?"
"I know. Where exactly did Long Wang come from?"
"I can't tell you anything without his permission." Shen Linghua suddenly remembered something. "Honestly, he is also a dual cultivator, and he has already joined the Blue Moon Sect."
"Oh?" Shen Linghua's confession completely shocked Shao Yunxi. "Is he really a dual cultivator? Do you really not mind if Qingya becomes his wife? After all, a dual cultivator has many women by his side, and he might treat her unfairly."
"No." Shen Linghua shook her head before speaking. "Even though I don't know Long Wang that well, he cares about the people around him, so I'm sure that he won't treat Qingya unfairly. In fact, he even dared to threaten me, and he also didn't hesitate to fight against our two clans because my second daughter wanted to attack her stepdaughter some time ago."
"Hmm? A 22-year-old kid, but he already has a stepdaughter." Shen Lingxua's nod perplexed Shao Yunxi. "How many wives does Long Wang actually have? Why does Rui want to attack his stepdaughter?"
"I don't know the exact number of Long Wang's wives, but I think there are quite a lot of them." Shen Linghua then sighed softly before continuing. "You must remember that Rui was previously engaged to Yang Hao, right? Even though she broke off their engagement herself, she still loved him very much. However, her character was quite tough and arrogant, and she was furious after she found out that he had already chosen his future wife, so she wanted to attack the girl. At that moment, Long Wang suddenly appeared and intervened, and I could see that there was no hesitation in his eyes that he would kill my second daughter if she attacked her. Even if I make a move, I may not necessarily be able to stop him from killing her. Luckily, he's not an impetuous person, so he didn't kill her straight away, and we managed to resolve everything peacefully."
Hearing all that, Shao Yunxi looked amazed and doubtful at the same time, especially since the Huo Clan was quite strong and the Shen Clan was even stronger. That's why she found it hard to believe that Chen Li dared to challenge both clans at once, but she knew that Shen Linghua was not a braggart, so she chose to believe her. "Anyway, can you take me to see Qingya?"
