Liang Shaohui recognized her instantly. This had to be Xiao Yuhui’s sister and the Xiao Clan’s second daughter, Xiao Yuran.
The two were biological siblings, after all, so they did resemble each other.
However, Xiao Yuhui was the type of girl who was head-strong and prideful, with the aura of a queen.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yuran was more adorable and delicate. Her aura made anyone that saw her want to hug her and caress her.
It was hard to debate whether Xiao Yuhui or Xiao Yuran was prettier. However, Xiao Yuran’s aura was definitely more attractive.
“This must be the Xiao Clan’s second daughter?”
Liang Shaohui’s heart was beating crazily. He had toyed with many girls before, but he had never met a girl with Xiao Yuran’s aura and looks.
Even Su Minghui’s and Su Mingxuan’s eyes flickered. The Xiao Clan really has a lot of beauties.
“Young Master Liang.”
Su Minghui suddenly said softly, “I can’t feel any cultivation on Xiao Yuran. She’s probably only a regular person.”
“A regular person?”
Hearing this, Liang Shaohui also focused to feel Xiao Yuran’s aura, discovering that she was indeed only a regular person.
“Hahaha, what luck!”
Liang Shaohui was delighted. He had originally thought that it would be somewhat troublesome to get a girl like Xiao Yuran. However, after realizing that Xiao Yuran was only a regular person, Liang Shaohui knew that the Xiao Clan wouldn’t oppose him or the Liang Clan.
On the Martial Dragon Continent, a person who could not cultivate was considered trash. This had been the case with Su Han.
In Liang Shaohui’s opinion, it didn’t matter even if Xiao Yuran was Xiao Hengshan’s biological daughter. In this world, might meant right. Xiao Hengshan wasn’t dumb enough to oppose the Liang Clan over a regular person.
Liang Shaohui stood up immediately and walked towards Xiao Yuran, putting on a chivalrous look.
“My name is Liang Shaohui, the son of the Liang Clan’s Grand Patriarch from Yunyang County City.”
Xiao Yuran lifted her head to look up at Liang Shaohui, then proceeded to ignore him. She walked towards Xiao Hengshan and Xiao Yuhui.
“Hmm?”
Liang Shaohui frowned. A mere girl who could not cultivate dared to ignore him?
What was even more maddening to Liang Shaohui was the word Su Han said indifferently as he walked past.
“Dumbass.”
“How dare you?!”
Liang Shaohui could overlook Xiao Yuran’s behavior, since she was meant to be his girl. However, how dared Su Han insult him?
“Stop right there!”
Liang Shaohui quickly turned around and said to Su Han, “Who the hell are you? How dare you speak to me like that?”
Su Han paused for a short while but did not stop walking. As he walked, he blurted out another word indifferently.
“Retard.”
Liang Shaohui almost puked blood. Su Han had said a total of two words and both of them were insults. Liang Shaohui couldn’t handle the feeling Su Han gave him: the feeling that came from being treated like a lowly ant.
Ever since Liang Shaohui was small, only he was allowed to give others that feeling, and not vice versa.
“Su Han, you’re too presumptuous!”
Seeing Liang Shaohui’s face darken, Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui saw their chance to interrupt.
Su Mingxuan immediately yelled, “It is an honor for the Far Mountain Province for Young
Master Liang to come and visit. It’s bad enough that you don’t respect that, but now you dare to insult him? You really have a death wish!”
“Thankfully, Father had already banished you from our clan. Otherwise, who knows what big trouble you would’ve brought to our family?”
“How dare you two talk about my husband like that?”
Xiao Yuran glared at the two and yelled adorably, “Why don’t you take a look at yourselves? What right do you have to be talking badly about my husband?”
“It’s fine.”
Su Han waved his hand and said indifferently, “They’re only two dogs, not worth your anger.”
“Humph!”
Xiao Yuran snorted softly and did not speak again.
“Two dogs?? Su Han, you’re jealous, aren’t you? Alright, even if we are two dogs, we’re still better off than you because you don’t even deserve to be a Su Clan dog. That’s why you were banished from the clan!” Su Mingxuan laughed coldly.
“Rest assured.”
Su Han looked at Su Mingxuan and suddenly smiled. “Very soon, there won’t be a Su Clan.”
“What did you say?”
The two became angry instantly. “Su Han, your words are really bold. Are you saying that you’re going to destroy the Su Clan?”
“That’s enough. I did not come here to witness this dog fight.”
Liang Shaohui had lost his patience. He took out a gold card.
“Grand Patriarch Xiao, here’s another one million gold pieces. In addition to the one million from before, it’s a total of two million. It should be enough for a gift offering; wouldn’t you agree?”
Out of the two million gold pieces, one million was Liang Shaohui’s entire savings. Another one million was given to him to use in the Far Mountain Province by the Grand Patriarch of the Liang Clan.
However, Liang Shaohui had decided to spend all of his money here. For a small clan in the Far Mountain Province, it was indeed a hefty sum.
After all, even the Xiao Clan, the foremost clan of the Far Mountain Province, could not make one million gold pieces in a whole year.
“In my opinion, your second daughter is only a regular person. I hope that Grand Patriarch can consider my offer,” Liang Shaohui said with a very threatening tone.
It would have been fine if he had not said anything about Xiao Yuran’s cultivation. Once he did, Xiao Yuhui immediately stood up, and an incredible coldness erupted from her beautiful eyes.
“So what if my sister can’t cultivate? Are you threatening us?” Xiao Yuhui said coldly.
Liang Shaohui hadn’t expected such a big reaction from Xiao Yuhui, and said immediately, “It’s not a threat. It’s just that we all know what kind of status is given to a person who isn’t able to cultivate on the Martial Dragon Continent. If she marries me, I might even be able to help her find a way to cultivate; who knows? After all, the strength of my family is nothing the Xiao Clan could compare to.”
“Get lost!”
Xiao Yuhui waved her tender hands with a face full of coldness.
Liang Shaohui frowned. “Xiao Yuhui, although you’re an inner elder at the Frost Cloud Sect, we also have someone from our family who’s an inner elder. Putting aside the Frost Cloud Sect, you think your Xiao Clan can compare to my Liang Clan?”
“Seeing that you’re the son of the Liang Clan’s Grand Patriarch, I’ll give you one more chance. Get lost, now!” Xiao Yuhui said.
“First Miss, you better be sure about your words. This is Young Master Liang from Yunyang County City!” Su Mingxuan laughed coldly.
“Even if the Xiao Clan is the first clan of the Far Mountain Province, you can’t afford to offend the Liang Clan. In my opinion, it would be better if you just apologize to Young Master Liang.”
Seeing the unsure expression on Xiao Yuhui’s slender face, Liang Shaohui smiled secretly. He simply stood there, seemingly waiting for Xiao Yuhui’s apology.
As for Xiao Hengshan and the many guest officials who were present, they had an unsightly look on their faces.
Whoosh!
Right then, a beam of golden light suddenly flew across the hall.
At the end of the golden light was a black radiance. The black radiance was extremely fast and rushed straight out. Eventually, shocking everyone…
It pierced into Liang Shaohui’s heart!
