"You're not Lu Zhi, you're Count Shaowu?" Cao Fenni pointed at Yang Wu and said coquettishly.
This was going to be awkward.
Yang Wu had wanted to have a good chat with Cao Fenni about life's ideals, but in the end, his father did not give him any face and exposed him like this. He felt a little embarrassed.
"Ahem, that's right, I'm Yang Wu. I was just teasing you, I'm really sorry." Yang Wu rubbed his nose and apologized.
After hearing Yang Wu's words, Cao Fenni did not reply. She raised her palm and sent it towards Yang Wu's chest.
Her attack was very sudden and there was no warning at all. Even a top level General Realm cultivator might not be able to dodge it in such a hurry.
Yang Wu was not a General Realm cultivator, but a genuine Youth King. He could sense Cao Fenni's movements. In other people's eyes, it might be very fast, but in his eyes, it was nothing.
Yang Wu could have dodged, but he didn't. He allowed Cao Fenni's palm to hit his chest.
Bang!
The strength of this palm was not small, even a thousand jin rock would be smashed to pieces. Yang Wu smiled as if nothing had happened, "Alright, you've already vented your anger. Let's forget about this matter."
Cao Fenni raised her beautiful eyes and scolded, "How could it be so easy? Take another palm of mine."
This time, Cao Fenni was serious. Her delicate palm was suffused with a thick profound energy. The green light was very dazzling as it smashed towards Yang Wu.
The power of this palm was definitely comparable to the power of a mid-level General Realm cultivator. She was only a beginner General Realm cultivator, but to be able to unleash such a domineering attack, she was indeed worthy of being called the Royal School's genius girl.
"Fenni, what are you doing?" Cao Jianda scolded in dissatisfaction.
Cao Fenni acted as if she did not hear him and continued to attack Yang Wu with all her strength.
Yang Wu could clearly see the trajectory of her attack. He still stood in the same place without moving, allowing her palm to hit his chest.
After this earth-shattering palm strike landed on Yang Wu's body, it was like a stone falling into the sea, not causing the slightest bit of movement.
"Have you vented your anger?" Yang Wu asked again with a smile.
He had lied first, so there was nothing wrong with hitting the girl to vent his anger.
Cao Fenni could be considered to have witnessed the strength of Yang Wu. Her battle prowess could be considered to be above average in the academy, but she still couldn't shake Yang Wu in the slightest. She knew that the gap between her and Yang Wu wasn't ordinary.
She was so angry that she puffed up her cheeks and asked, "Have you really reached the Earth Sea Realm?"
"That's right. Otherwise, how could I become a general like your father?" Yang Wu replied honestly.
It was also at this time that Yang Zhennan, Su Roumei, Cao Jianda, and Madam Cao hurriedly walked over.
Cao Jianda reprimanded, "Fenni, what did you just do? Hurry up and apologize to Count Shaowu."
Yang Wu hurriedly said, "General Cao, there's no need to be like this. I was only sparring with your daughter. Please don't blame her."
Madam Cao looked at the outstanding Yang Wu and hurriedly said with a smile, "Oh, so this is Count Shaowu. I've heard my master mention you many times. You're really a dragon among men, like a golden child descending to the mortal world. You really are a good match for my Fenni."
Today, Cao Jianda and Madam Cao's intentions for bringing Cao Fenni here were very clear. Madam Cao couldn't help but directly express her feelings. Even her heart was moved by Yang Wu as a son-in-law.
"Uh … General Cao, did your family come to propose marriage?" Yang Wu was stunned for a moment before asking back.
With his current status, he was no longer inferior to Cao Jianda. In fact, Cao Jianda even had to ask him for help, which was why he spoke so casually.
Cao Jianda revealed an awkward expression and glared at his wife. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Fenni spoke first, "Who came to propose marriage? My father came to thank you on account of you saving his life. Don't think too highly of yourself."
Although Yang Wu was very outstanding, Cao Fenni still felt that compared to the geniuses of the Transcendent World, he was still far from it.
"That's good." Yang Wu said with a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
Cao Fenni was displeased when she saw this. She said to Yang Wu, "I'm now a disciple of the Imperial School. In half a month, Mount Emei will come to recruit new disciples. I'll definitely be able to join Mount Emei and become a fairy there. In the future, I'll be even stronger than you."
"Yes, I believe you can do it." Yang Wu replied as he blinked his eyes.
Although he was about the same age as Cao Fenni, his thoughts weren't as simple as hers. Therefore, he didn't argue with her.
When Cao Jianda saw this, he could only sigh heavily in his heart, "Fenni is still a child. She's not good enough for Yang Wu."
Just like that, Yang Wu and Cao Jianda chatted for a while. He wanted to ask the Cao family to stay for dinner, but Cao Jianda didn't have the face to do so. He hurriedly left with his wife and daughter.
On the way, Madam Cao reprimanded her daughter in dissatisfaction, "Fenni, are you blind? Where else can you find such a good man? You actually despise him. This is the prospective son-in-law that the Emperor has bestowed upon you."
"Didn't you say that he defied the Emperor's decree?" Cao Fenni replied.
"That's why he's so amazing. Ask your father if he has the guts to defy the Emperor's decree." Madam Cao retorted.
Cao Jianda didn't want to say anything at first. He was still full of anger. Now that he was involved, he had no choice but to speak up. "Fenni, we brought you here to propose marriage. However, we hope that you can get to know Yang Wu better. He's a very outstanding young man. If you can be with him, you'll be proud of it for the rest of your life."
"Father, he's very powerful now, but he's still a far cry from the geniuses of the Transcendents. In the future, I'll definitely find you a son-in-law who surpasses the Earth Sea realm, okay?" Cao Fenni replied with a pout.
"Short-sighted," Cao Jianda cursed. Cao Jianda scolded softly. Then, he told Yang Wu about Yang Wu's deeds in the army and his wife and daughter.
The three of them sat in the carriage, so their conversation wasn't affected by the noisy environment outside.
When Madam Cao and Cao Fenni finished listening, both mother and daughter revealed looks of disbelief.
"I've also heard that this child was thrown into the mountain prison a year ago. Now that I've heard what you've said, I really feel that this child is too inconceivable. Moreover, his luck is heaven-defying." Madam Cao sighed.
"That's not all. Just based on his alchemy skills, I think that only the old Pavilion Master of the Medicine King's Pavilion can compete with him." Cao Jianda said. After a pause, he added, "Our son once cut off the Fifth Prince's hand. I also cut off Qing Gong's hand. It was Yang Wu who reconnected their severed limbs. I've personally witnessed his abilities. Fenni, do you still think that he'll be limited to our Grand Xia Dynasty?"
"Father, you mean to say that he'll become someone from the Transcendents sooner or later?" Cao Fenni asked in a small voice.
"Some people are destined to be extraordinary, and he's that kind of person. He even has a mysterious master behind him. Only the Transcendents can accommodate a dragon like him." Cao Jianda said with certainty.
This time, Madam Cao was even more dissatisfied with her daughter. She pointed at her and said, "Look at you. You've missed out on such a good son-in-law. Where are you going to find a better one in the future?"
Cao Fenni's heart was also filled with regret. Yang Wu gave her a very good impression and had a very good temperament. However, in her heart, she only wanted to be a genius from the Transcendents. She hoped that her future partner would also be a peerless figure from there. Therefore, she had rejected Yang Wu. Now that she heard her father say that Yang Wu had risen to such a level in just a short year, his future achievements would not be any worse than those geniuses from the Transcendents. Moreover, he was the Medicine King. Such a genius was really hard to find.
However, she still stubbornly said, "If he really enters the Transcendents, then I'll just chase after him."
"It's all my fault for not telling you clearly. Some people, once missed, are missed." Cao Jianda shook his head and sighed.
…
Yang Family.
Su Roumei was also chatting with Yang Wu about the same thing. She asked Yang Wu, "That girl from the Cao Family is pretty good looking. If you like her, it wouldn't be a bad idea to marry her."
"Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? She's still a child." Yang Wu helplessly replied.
"She's a child, but aren't you a child as well? You're not young anymore. It's time to think about marriage. Back in the day, your father and I also got married around this time." Su Roumei sincerely said.
Yang Zhennan drank a mouthful of tea and asked, "The girl who follows you around all day and the child from the Wan Family, which one do you want to choose?"
Yang Wu instantly felt a headache coming on. He was not prepared for this kind of thing. Moreover, he already had a sweetheart. This matter was really hard to explain.
"Father, mother, your son is young and promising. Are you afraid that he won't be able to find a wife? Don't you see that all those girls outside are here for your son? It's easy to find a wife, but right now it's not the right time to think about love. " Yang Wu boasted, and then he said, "In the future, my master will take me to another place to cultivate and pursue the pinnacle of martial arts. He said that I must preserve my virginity, or else my future achievements will be limited."
"Don't tell me it'll always be like this?" Su Roumei was a little unhappy.
Yang Wu walked to his mother's side and said, "Mother, you don't have to worry about this matter. In the future, I'll definitely find you a beautiful daughter-in-law."
"Women that are too beautiful are not reliable. As long as she's good to you, mother will be at ease." Su Roumei sighed.
"En, I know. In the future, you and father don't have to worry about this. If you have time, you should cultivate more and increase your strength. This will be more beneficial for your body. In the future, you'll be able to take care of your fat grandson. "
"You only know how to pick up the good things to say. Mother is now a body of old bones. No matter how much I cultivate, I won't be able to improve."
"Mother is still young and beautiful. I have some medicinal liquid here. You and father can soak in it and refine your body. This way, you can continue cultivating."
"Having a son who's an alchemist is a blessing."
