Daughters were like their parents' little cotton-padded jackets. For the past three years, the bastard that caused his daughter to not eat or drink was actually here?
Old Master Yang was happy for Yang Yingxi, but also a little disappointed.
His daughter was an extrovert, and with this bastard here, it meant that she was leaving him.
Old Master Yang would not let it go so easily, he wanted to see what kind of god Lin Xiu was!
But before he could go out, Yang Yingxi and Lin Xiu left the Yang family together and strolled around the county city, tasting some famous snacks.
"Come, let me tell you, this is our Yan Zhi prefecture's most famous soup dumplings, try it." Yang Yingxi used her chopsticks to pick up a dumpling and placed it in Lin Xiu's mouth.
"Hot!" Lin Xiu couldn't help but exclaim as soon as the dumpling entered his mouth.
"Eating it while it's hot is the best." Yang Yingxi said as she picked up a dumpling and swallowed it happily.
Seeing the soup at the corner of Yang Yingxi's mouth, Lin Xiu gently wiped it away, causing Yang Yingxi to blush.
"Lin Xiu, it's so good to have you." She said in her heart.
Just like that, the two of them strolled around the city and bought a lot of new things.
At this time, the Yang Family's Old Master was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing around anxiously in his study, afraid that his precious daughter would be careless and run away with that little rascal without even saying a word.
Listening to the news from his spies from time to time, his brows furrowed into a deep crease.
"Liu Tao, what do you think about that kid?" Old Master Yang was also desperate at this time, so he could only look at Liu Tao.
He was the only person in the family who had contact with Lin Xiu...
"I don't dare to hide it from Old Master, this Young Master Lin is extremely strong, I heard that he has already reached the Earth Yuan Realm." Seeing his old master's anxious expression, Liu Tao wanted to laugh.
"What? Earth Yuan Realm... "Old Master Yang's hands trembled and he was speechless.
As the chief official of a county city, his strength was considered extraordinary among the many cities in Tianshui Dynasty. Most of the city lords were only at the late Harmonious Spirit Realm.
The Yan Zhi Prefecture had a pretty good reputation in the entire Sky Water Empire. Its economy and trade were developed, and there were countless experts coming and going. Therefore, the number of experts here was much higher than in other cities.
Usually, the Old Master of the Yang family had the final say in Yan Zhi Prefecture, and no one had ever dared to challenge his dignity. But the current situation was a little tricky.
The future son-in-law was actually this powerful?
Sighing in his heart, the Yang Family Old Master was still a little unwilling.
As parents, their biggest wish was for their children to be able to live a happy life. For this, they wanted to be the backing of their children and work hard.
For the sake of a house, the mortals in the city might work hard and get up from dawn to dusk just to give their children a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
As cultivators, they were much more demanding of their children.
They hoped that their children would possess great strength so that they wouldn't have to look at other people's faces. But when they lost the ability to protect their children, on one hand, they felt happy for their children, but on the other hand, they also felt a sense of loss.
His children had grown up and were starting to live their own lives. They were about to spread their wings and soar into the sky. While the Yang Family Old Master was gratified, he was also a little disappointed.
"Forget it. If Ying Xi likes it, then let him be." With a sigh, the old master of the Yang family looked somewhat desolate. With his back facing Liu Tao, he felt that the originally tall figure of the old master, whose words carried enormous weight in the Yan Zhi prefecture, had suddenly become much more stooped.
"Old Master, this is actually not a bad thing. The stronger Young Master Lin is, the better he can protect the Young Miss in the future. You should be happy instead." Liu Tao couldn't help but say.
The Yang Family Old Master turned around, his eyes moving from the words he had just written with a complicated gaze.
"Looking forward to your daughter becoming a phoenix!"
"Sigh, Liu Tao, you don't have a child, so naturally you can't understand my feelings. The stronger one is, the greater the burden, and one may not be happy in the future. As martial artists, our strength can be said to be at the top in this small prefecture city. But in all fairness, do we really have a better life than the ordinary people? "The Yang Family Old Master sighed softly.
Thinking about it, Liu Tao felt that this was indeed the case. The ordinary people were worried about food and clothing all day long, haggling over the price of fuel, rice, oil, and salt.
But what martial artists pursued was to be able to fly in the air, move mountains and drain the seas …
In this world, how could there be a truly worry-free person? Everyone had their own troubles, and perhaps only those who were born stupid were the happiest. They didn't have to think about troubles and lived in their own world. Even if they were occasionally unhappy, they would quickly forget about it.
"Liu Tao, if Ying Xi leaves with that rascal, will she forget about her father in the future?" The Yang Family Old Master said with some uncertainty.
Liu Tao smiled slightly, "Old Master, you're thinking too much. How can a daughter forget her parents?"
With a sigh, the few wrinkles on the Yang Family Old Master's forehead couldn't be smoothed out.
"Ying Xi's mother passed away early. All these years, I've been afraid that she would suffer any grievances, so I let her do everything. Now that I think about it, I don't know if I did the right thing back then."
"Alright, you can rest assured. If you're still worried, wait for the young master to come and you can think about it yourself."
… …
It wasn't until sunset that Yang Yingxi pulled Lin Xiu back to the Yang Family.
"Yingxi, do you think it's a little inappropriate for me to visit your father now?" Lin Xiu asked with uncertainty.
Yang Yingxi's big eyes turned, she was also not sure what her father's thoughts were. If it was an ordinary matter, with how much he doted on her, the Yang family's Old Master would never object, but this matter involved her marriage, causing her to feel uncertain.
After the two entered the residence, they were much more restrained and no longer held hands as they walked toward the Yang Family Old Master's study.
"Lin Xiu, let me tell you, my father's temper isn't very good, but he's cold on the outside and warm on the inside. If he says anything unpleasant, don't take it to heart."
At the door of the study, Yang Yingxi pulled Lin Xiu's sleeve and lowered her voice.
"Hmph, you're not even married yet and you're already helping an outsider." A deep voice suddenly came from the room, startling both of them.
Lin Xiu took a deep breath and held Yang Yingxi's jade-like hand, his eyes full of encouragement.
"Don't worry, silly girl, I'm here."
Lin Xiu and Yang Yingxi pushed the door open and saw a tall and straight figure with his back facing them.
