"Our Xia family has declined."
"Grandpa, there isn't a day that goes by when you don't think about restoring the glory of the family. Look at this ancestral Purple Moon Demon Sword. If it wasn't for the fact that grandfather was still alive, who knows how many people would be jealous of it.”
"Demon sword?" Xia Zhe was already puzzled.
"Right, the demon sword." Old Master Xia stared at him mysteriously.
"What is a demon sword?" He really didn't understand.
Laughing heartily, Old Master Xia shook his head and said,""This sword has a great background, but there's no hurry. I'll tell you about it slowly during the family meeting later. Before this…"
Xia Zhe had an idea. He didn't know what the old man wanted to do.
"Child, you got first place in the martial sciences college entrance examination this time. Did you meet a young lady from the Wu family on the way?" Old Master Xia asked expectantly.
His heart skipped a beat.
Xia Zhe's expression changed.”
"The Wu family of Guzhou City's four great families also sent their descendants to the college entrance examination this time. I wonder if my obedient grandson is so coincidental to meet them.”Old Master Xia smiled subtly.
"There is. But Grandpa, what do you mean?" Xia Zhe felt that something was wrong.
"Alright!" Old Master Xia was overjoyed.
"Our Xia family has been down and out for many years. Even though your uncles took care of it, without support, how could it be possible for you to make a comeback so quickly?”
Old Master Xia's expression turned serious." We owe the Wu family a favor. They've been helping us in secret." We've been developing rapidly these few years, and we're about to become a new force in Guzhou City. We'll be able to help each other further and help them ascend to the throne of the four great clans.”
"Grandpa, open it and tell me." Xia Zhe said.
Old Master Xia laughed." Now, the granddaughter of the Wu family's head is already seventeen years old. It's time for her to marry into our Xia family."”
" Don't tell me you want me to…" Xia Zhe felt as if he was being dragged into this.
"That's right!"
Old Master Xia's white beard glared and said seriously,""Grandpa originally arranged for your second uncle's cousin, but Xia Feng is already 23 years old. It will take three to four years for Miss Wu to marry. He's too old. Feng 'er's martial arts skills were still at the early stage of Silver Rank, so he was quite dissatisfied with the Wu Family Head's words. Grandpa was just thinking about it anxiously when our good grandson came!”
"Grandpa can't be talking about Wu Lin, right?”Xia Zhe smiled bitterly.
"Wu Lin? "Old Master Xia's expression changed.
"You're not talking about her? "Xia Zhe was stunned.
"Of course not!"
Old Master Xia shook his head repeatedly and said slowly,""If it was a few years ago, it would have been good for you to pull strings with her. Now that her father, Wu Hong, was paralyzed and bedridden, he had long lost his power. It was impossible for him to be the next head of the Wu family. What was the meaning of this marriage?”
As he spoke, Old Master Xia said with an attitude that could not be rejected,"Grandpa is talking to you about Miss Wu Qingya. It doesn't matter if you don't know each other. Grandpa will arrange for you to meet as soon as possible.”
"I don't agree." Xia Zhe refused decisively.
Old Master Xia narrowed his eyes.
In an instant, it was as if the surrounding air had frozen.
Spiritual energy pressure!
Very strong!
Xia Zhe was furious. He knew that this old man wasn't that kind.
Marry.
Who could force him!
"Parents are the ones who decide on their children's marriage. Since Grandpa was still around, he would decide on this marriage.”Old Master Xia glanced at him coldly and walked out with his hands behind his back.
An old man and a young man, followed by many servants, returned to the villa's courtyard one after another.
The aroma of roasted meat wafted in the air.
Three uncles, two aunts, twelve collateral relatives, and Xia Zhe's family.
All eighteen families had arrived.
Each of them brought some followers, and at a glance, there were hundreds of people.
With a dignified expression, Old Master Xia sat in the inner corner and closed his eyes to rest, waiting for the servants to arrange the seats and talk.
The sharp-eyed ones, on the other hand, looked at Xia Zhe with a gloomy expression.
He was secretly delighted.
She thought that Old Master Xia didn't value Xia Zhe.
"Little Zhe, what's wrong?" Seeing Xia Zhe's expression, Xia Zhe's mother quickly asked in a low voice.
Xia Zhe was in a bad mood. He looked at his seat and asked his mother with a frown,""Why don't you and sister have seats?”
Everyone was seated, but there was only one seat next to Father Xia, which was reserved for Xia Zhe.
Xia Xiaofu's mother and sister could only stand there.
" This…" Xia Zhe's mother didn't dare to say anything and only urged Xia Zhe to sit down.
"Didn't you have a seat just now? What's going on?”Xia Zhe was furious. The clansmen who had been waiting to watch the show sneered, waiting to see how Xia Zhe could resolve the awkwardness.
"Don't say anymore. Your grandfather will be here soon.”Father Xia said anxiously.
"Sis, tell me what happened.”She turned her head and asked Xia Ying.
Xia Ying was angry.
She also walked away for a while. When she returned, her seat was gone. Even if she asked Father Xia and Mother Xia, they wouldn't tell her.
"Dad, tell me who took it!”She also questioned the two elders.
Father Xia's face was full of shame. He stammered but did not dare to say anything.
"I asked someone to move it away. Why? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”Suddenly, a cold gaze looked over.
"Are you blind?!"
Xia Zhe scolded him from the corner of his eye. He saw a man in his early twenties dressed in high-profile clothes and surrounded by many young people from his family.
It was the second uncle's son that Old Master Xia had just mentioned, his cousin Xia Feng.
"Say what!" Xia Feng was furious. How dare he speak to him like this in front of so many people?
