15 SWORD GOD OF TINGXIN EMPIRE

"Ahahaha Congratulations Bro Yi, we will soon become in-laws.", Meng Song laughed out.

Even though he seemed carefree, inwardly he was worried that in the last moment Yue Huang might just refuse the engagement!

"Uncle Song, shouldn't you ask for Meng Hua's opinion of this engagement too? ", Yue Huang frowned, having the spirit of a person from earth, he would obviously want to know whether the woman he is going to get engaged to, was willing or not.

If she wasn't interested... Then Yue Huang would take a strong stance and break the engagement even if it would hurt his father's sentiments.

...

"Huang'er, you worry too much! My daughter has already agreed to this engagement months ago. ", Uncle Song smiled out.

" Wha- she has already agreed? ", Yue Huang was shook.

As per his novel knowledge, shouldn't his fiancée be some haughty young lady that would look down on him and later on break the engagement or something like that! This was totally not going as per the script of usual chinese novels...

Plus the previous Yue Huang wasn't some sort of cultivation genius or of that sort. He didn't even cultivate! He was a down-to-earth-scum. Why would a woman willingly accept being married to such a man?

Yue Huang's mind instantly played out a series of possibilities and finally he came to only one conclusion: 'Meng Hua is ugly!', her looks are so bad that no man would want to marry her.

The more he thought of this possibility, the more tensed the young Huang got, [This possiblity could indeed be very real.]

As Yenma slowly gazed towards the mirror inside the Hall and looked at his handsome face and jade white skin that had a touch of feminity, he couldn't help but sigh!

[Father, how could you do this to your own child?], Yue Huang eyes hung down as his spirit wearied.

He then took a deep breath, [I have signed my own death warrant.]

Which man didn't wish he had a beautiful wife? A wife who cared and loved him wholeheartedly? Yue Huang didn't think much about beauty, even if she was a woman with average-looks, he wouldn't mind it.

But what if the woman's looks were so horrible that any man would refuse to marry her?

Although Yue Huang stood quietly, he was mentally distracted and he could almost hear his inner-voice speaking out to him, 'You deserve better.'

...

Yue Yi and Meng Song had a hearty talk after which they proceeded to have dinner together. Yue Huang remained quiet throughout their conversation and occasionally answered a new questions that Uncle Song asked him.

It was also through these conversations that Yue Huang learned the true identity of Uncle Song, he was the City Master of Sigai City!

Lushu Empire spanned across huge land, consisting of various cities, both large and small.

Sigai City being one of the twelve main cities of Lushu Empire and was a cultivation and trading hub as it was near the borders of Tingxin Empire.

Sigai City held a lot of importance for the Lushu Empire, this could be easily understood since the once-in-a-decade martial tournament was always held there.

Being the City Master of such a city meant only one thing: Powerful and Influencial!

Yue Huang felt his breath quicken, the way he looked at Uncle Song was different from before. There was a tinge of admiration in his eyes now.

Although Yue Huang didn't dare to assume Uncle Song's cultivation level, but having Qi Formation Realm martial artists as guards... Yue Huang could only think of one possiblity when it came to Uncle Song's cultivation realm: Core Realm.. or a realm above the Core Realm!

"Could this be... my chance?", Yue Huang mumbled. Having such a man as his father-in-law might not be that bad after all.

...

After the dinner had ended, it was time to leave.

Uncle Song accompanied the father-son duo till the palace gates to send them off.

Yue Yi took his leave, but this time Yue Huang didn't follow behind his father as he looked at Uncle Song with a shimmer in his eyes, "Uncle, I'm almost going to be your son-in-law. Shouldn't you give me some gift for visiting my in-laws for the first time? "

Meng Song was stumped. He didn't know there was supposed to be such a thing, but what his dear son-in-law said indeed made sense.

"So in that case, what do you want Huang'er?", Meng Song asked.

Without feeling embarrassed, Yue Huang said, " Give me the best martial technique you have uncle!"

After having dinner with Uncle Song, Yue Huang knew that he was a straight forward man so he didn't beat around the bush and spoke his intentions out honestly.

Although Yue Huang had a cultivation manual now, he lacked martial techniques! After watching the powerful martial techniques executed by Cue Dong, Yue Huang had a desire to learn some too.

Cultivation is all well and good, but if one didn't have the offensive power to back it up then what's the use of cultivation?

...

"hoho, you asked quite the gift.", Meng Song was silent for a while before he laughed out.

Then he continued,"Well since you are my son-in-law, it isn't a problem."

As he said so, Meng Song suddenly disappeared right in front of Yue Huang and then re-appeared a few minutes later, this time he had a worn out book in his hand.

Handing the book over to Yue Huang, he spoke, "This is the best martial technique I have for Body Refining martial artists. I can't give you a more poweful martial technique than this since your cultivation level is too low."

Meng Song paused for a moment, " The strongest martial technique I have is the [Dragon-Killing Palm], if you ever reach the Core Realm, I would be more than happy to gift it to you."

The very mention of the Core Realm, fortified Yue Huang's guess! Uncle Song was definitely a true expert.

Yue Huang was joyous, " Thank you, Uncle! "

" It's no big deal, we will soon be a family.", Uncle Song smiled as he sent off Yue Huang.

...

Watching the departing back of the young Huang, Meng Song muttered confusedly, ".. Why is he looking for strong martial techniques, when his own father is the sword god of the Tingxin Empire?.. "
