Chapter 15
As soon as the eldest sister Chu Wanling's proposal came out, Chu Lingtian and Chu Xiaoer's eyes lit up at the same time. They both thought it was a good idea.
"The eldest sister is right!"
Chu Xiaoer immediately agreed:
"The eldest daughter of the Nangong family is picky and doesn't like Chu Li. How could she not like a boy like A Ming?"
Chu Xiaoer and Chu Wanling said this, and they reached an agreement, as if in their eyes, all girls should like Chu Ming.
Chu Lingtian was also overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded repeatedly
"Yes, it is a good idea to let Ming'er marry into the Nangong family instead of Chu Li."
"After Chu Li left the Chu family on his own, the man in the engagement was naturally not him."
"Ming'er is much better than Chu Li in all aspects, and the young lady of the Nangong family will definitely be satisfied."
A few people were harmonious and reached an agreement. Only Chu Ruyan frowned slightly and felt that something was wrong.
The reason why the Nangong family married the Chu family was because the Chu family took the initiative to ease the relationship. Why are they talking like the Nangong family now? As if she had something to ask for?
Besides, as far as she knew, the eldest lady of the Nangong family had a bad opinion of the entire Chu family and did not have a very close relationship with Chu Li.
The most important thing was that Nangong Shi was the real lady of the Nangong family. Although Chu Ming is favored by the Chu family, he is an adopted son after all and does not have the blood of the Chu family.
Although it is a bit bad to say this, will the Nangong family allow their eldest daughter to marry an adopted son of the Chu family?
The more she thinks about it, the more Chu Ruyan thinks about it. The more worried he was about the reaction of the Nangong family, he could only bite the bullet and said:
"Father, I heard that Nangong Shi is a martial arts genius and likes the strong the most. But Chu Ming has just reached the Houtian realm. Should this matter be slowed down?"
"Huh, what's this? Chu Lingtian said disdainfully:"Our Chu family has such resources, will our future achievements be worse tomorrow?""
"Yes, and Ah Ming has so many advantages, he will be fine."
Chu Xiaoer said so, as if she treated Chu Ming as a treasure.
At this time, Chu Ming spoke
"Father, sister, are the Nangong family powerful? Do you actually need our Chu family to marry?"
"Of course, the Nangong family is certainly powerful. They are the biggest force behind the Demon Slayer Division."
"The Demon Slayer Division?"
Hearing this, Chu Ming's eyes widened, his eyes flashed, and he asked again:
"So what does their eldest lady look like? I heard he was a warrior, wouldn't it be scary?"
"No, their eldest daughter Nangong Shi is a famous beauty in the Imperial Capital, and she has many suitors in the academy."
"real! ? Chu Ming said in surprise:"Then I am willing to replace brother Chu Li and marry the Nangong family!""
Seeing Chu Ming say this, Chu Lingtian laughed.
"Hahaha, okay, then I will start making arrangements and try to get this done as soon as possible!"
A major event related to the relationship between the two families has been finalized in this way. Chu Ruyan, who used to be the Chu family's think tank, can't say a word at this time.
Obviously, because of Chu Li's incident, Chu Ruyan at this time There was some estrangement between her and her family, and any words she spoke would probably have the opposite effect.
Thinking of this, Chu Ruyan couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly had a hunch that the development of the Chu family might not go smoothly in the future.
----------------
"Are you here again? boy."
At the same time as the Chu family's family meeting, Chu Li was visiting an old man in the inner courtyard of the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy.
The old man had white hair and white hair, and was dressed casually. He held a wine gourd in his hand and poured a few drops into his mouth from time to time. Not far away, a large alchemy furnace is placed in the center of the courtyard, and the aroma of elixirs spreads, making people feel relaxed and happy.
No one knows the old man's name, but everyone in the martial arts academy knows him. Lao is one of the several vice-presidents of the Imperial Martial Arts Academy. Almost all the high-end elixir resources of the entire Imperial Martial Arts Academy come from him, so his prestige in the Martial Arts Academy is extremely high, second only to the dean. Unfortunately
, he was kind to Chu Li.
Due to lack of training resources, Chu Li worked very hard after entering the martial arts academy and was frequently injured, so he met Mu Lao.
The old man not only healed his injuries, but also gave him some elixirs to warm and nourish his body.
It was precisely because of those elixirs that Chu Li's body was stable for a long time. He took this opportunity to make a name for himself in the martial arts competition. After receiving many rewards
, Chu Li naturally did not dare to be too proud. He took off his bamboo hat and bowed to salute.
"Mr. Mu, long time no see. I am here to bother you again."
"Well, it seems that you just came back from slaying the demon, and you have a lot of energy and blood.......Wait, huh?"
Halfway through the words, Mu Lao suddenly sat up, looked at Chu Li carefully, and then showed a look of surprise.
"Good boy, you are already in the late stage of the acquired realm? You are making great progress!"
"Yes, it has indeed improved recently."Chu Li said modestly
"It’s just that you look worse, did I say that? You are weak in body and energy, so don't hurt your feelings."
Staring at Chu Li's face, Mu Lao warned him seriously. Chu Li didn't say anything after hearing the words, and just saluted again.
Before that, Mu Lao had told him that no matter what the reason, he should not be overly sad, otherwise it would be harmful to the body. Big harm.
Because of this, he tried his best to laugh it off no matter what injustice he suffered in the Chu family.
But this time, he really couldn't do it that day. He saw his father Chu Lingtian and his three sisters openly favoring Chu Ming. , saying that he deserved to die, and when he took away his God of War bones and gave them to Chu Ming, he could not suppress his grief and anger, and his body became weaker.
But fortunately, there are gains and losses, and the prerequisite for injury is to care about yourself. After that day, his heart was dead.
From now on, there was only one person in his heart for the word family, and that was his deceased mother.
After drawing a clear line with the Chu family, it was no longer possible for them to hurt Chu Li. Chu Li no longer cares about them. The evidence is his reaction when he faced Chu Ruyan before.
In the past, Chu Ruyan would rush to him immediately for fear of keeping his sister waiting.
But now, Chu Ruyan's words fell on deaf ears. , can no longer evoke any emotions from Chu Li.
"Mu Lao, actually I have something to tell you. I have left the Chu family."
"oh? That's it."
Hearing this, Mu Lao sighed and didn't ask any more questions.
He had diagnosed Chu Li's body and naturally knew that Chu Li was a member of the Chu family, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually distance himself from the Chu family. Boundaries.
You must know that although this martial arts academy looks huge, its training resources are far less than those of Shengwu Academy. As a Chu family member, Chu Li should have the opportunity to go to Shengwu Academy and leave Chu. At home, at this age, there are no martial arts bones in the body.
"This Chu family seems to be extremely mean to him!"
Thinking of this, Mu Lao's eyes turned cold, and his already low opinion of the Chu family became even worse.
