Peerless Tang Sect: Snow Empress Adopts and Intercepts Jiang Nannan

Chapter 23 The Tragic Xu Sanshi

Suburbs of Lingdou City.

Deep in the mountains, there is a magnificent palace.

Xuanming Sect Master Xu Xuanya and Xue Lingxun sat at the head of the table.

An elderly man with white hair was also sitting below.

One could faintly sense a powerful yet gentle aura emanating from this old man.

Even Xu Xuanya and Xue Lingxun, a couple who held high positions within the Douling Empire, treated the old man with utmost respect.

This old man also shared the surname Xue, making him a distant branch of the Douling royal family. His martial soul was the Jade Swan, a top-tier healing-type martial soul, and he shared a close kinship with Bi Ji, one of the legendary ten ferocious beasts. Furthermore, his cultivation had reached level ninety-one, making him a renowned healing-type titled Douluo on the continent.

If it weren't for the royal family's connections, it would have been quite a hassle for the Xuanming Sect to invite them here.

"Master Xue, how is my son's injury?"

"Xuan Ya, there's no need for such formalities."

"Thanks to my treatment and the unlimited supply of rare and precious herbs from your sect, San Shi is now basically out of danger."

"Now we just have to wait for him to recover on his own; there's nothing more I can do."

"For the next six months, San Shi will be unable to practice his internal energy cultivation."

Old Xue waved his hand, saying that these two were his juniors.

"When will San Shi be able to move around freely?"

Xue Lingxun asked anxiously.

"I'll need to rest for about a year."

"Alas, my poor child!"

A hint of impatience flashed in Xu Xuanya's eyes.

However, it's not appropriate to reprimand one's wife in front of outsiders.

"Then thank you very much for your treatment over the past few days, Elder Xue."

"You saved San Shi's life."

"As a father, I can't just stand by and do nothing."

"Someone come here!"

He clapped his hands.

Immediately, someone carried a storage ring on a tray and walked up to Elder Xue.

"I already said, there's no need to be polite."

Despite saying that, Elder Xue still accepted the ring.

He glanced at it briefly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

"This is what you deserve."

"Hehe, you shouldn't accept that."

"The matter concerning Xuan Ya and Ling Xun is now settled."

"I will not stay any longer."

"Would you like to stay a few more days?"

"As you know, these past few days, so many people have been asking me to return to Lingdou City to see a doctor that they've practically worn your family's gate down. I really can't afford to delay any longer."

"Oh, in that case, I won't keep you any longer. I'll personally escort you out of the sect."

"No, no, there's no need. Xuan Ya is worried about San Shi, so you can go and see him."

After exchanging pleasantries, the old man left the Xuanming Sect.

Only Xue Lingxun's sobbing could be heard inside the main hall.

"Cry! You're still crying!"

"Crying in front of outsiders? Aren't you ashamed!"

"Yes! I'm not ashamed!"

"Your Xuanming Sect is even more shameful!"

"The young master has been nearly beaten to death!"

"They only dared to save people, but didn't dare utter a single word against the perpetrators!"

"There's not even an arrest warrant yet!"

"Xu Xuanya, what are you good for? Is Sanshi really your biological son?"

"That killer has clearly reached the Super Douluo level!"

"What can I do?"

"Even though this matter reached your nephew, the emperor, he didn't dare utter a single word, did he?"

"A Super Douluo of unknown rank—not only the Xuanming Sect, but even the Douling Empire wouldn't dare offend him easily!"

"Besides, don't you understand? The reason they spared Sanshi's life is because they didn't want to completely offend us; they were saving face for us!"

"If you push your luck any further, they will retaliate without hesitation!"

"What do you know, you woman?"

Xu Xuanya's anger flared, and he roared.

During this period, he also experienced a great deal of anger and frustration.

Xu Sanshi was his only son, but he was not only Xu Sanshi's father, but also the sect leader of the Xuanming Sect and the son-in-law of the Douling Empire! He couldn't just think about his own son; he also had to consider the Douling Empire and the Xuanming Sect!

"I'm just a woman, I don't understand anything! All I know is that my only son was beaten like that!"

"I am his mother, and I will seek justice for him!"

"Xu Xuanya! If you have the guts, then don't go see your son!"

"I'll take him back to the Xue family myself!"

Xue Lingxun turned and walked away.

She wasn't without intelligence; she simply didn't know the strength and status of a Super Douluo.

But as a mother, she couldn't stay calm at that moment.

Bang!

The tables and desks inside the hall were instantly reduced to dust by Xu Xuanya's furious slaps.

His face was contorted with rage; he was clearly furious.

But after a short while, he regained his composure.

They summoned a person.

"Go, find a young girl and send her to Sanshi House. Although he is seriously injured, you must make him consummate the marriage."

"Otherwise, if he misses the crucial age of fifteen, his Xuanwu Shield will never awaken."

"Yes."

"By the way, don't send it in in front of Madam."

"Understood."

Inside another hall.

It was filled with the aroma of medicine.

A person was lying on the soft couch.

His whole body was wrapped in bandages.

Only the eyes, nose, and mouth are visible.

Those eyes were bloodshot and wide open.

This person was none other than Xu Sanshi, who had just woken up.

"hateful!"

"hateful!"

"How dare you insult me ​​like that!"

"Die! Die! Die!"

"Damn it! Don't let me find you!"

"Otherwise, I will tear you to pieces!"

He recalled the scene from a few days ago when Ye Xuanxin trampled him underfoot and clamored that she would crush his tortoise shell.

He felt incredibly humiliated, furious, and resentful.

So much so that his whole body began to tremble involuntarily.

But the next moment, he cried out in pain.

Despite having all his meridians severed, he was healed by rare and precious materials worth tens of millions of gold coins and the strongest healing-type titled Douluo, so that he would not suffer any aftereffects.

Repairs will take time.

Now, he experiences excruciating pain all over his body whenever he moves.

"Ah! Young Master!"

"Are you alright?"

The maidservant serving nearby exclaimed in surprise.

"San Shi?"

"What's wrong?"

Are you alright?

The maid's exclamation drew another exclamation.

It was Xue Lingxun who had come to visit her son.

The woman quickly stepped forward.

"Get out of here, you lowly servant! Is this how you treat me?!"

He slapped the ordinary maid to the ground.

She rushed to Xu Sanshi's side.

His face was full of worry and heartache.

"Sanshi! Sanshi! How are you?"

"Is something wrong?"

"Mother will find you a healing soul master right away! Oh, and Elder Xue hasn't gone far yet! I'll go and call him back!"

"Mother!"

"Mother!"

"I want revenge!"

"I hate it!"

"I'm going to kill that brat!"

Xu Sanshi's eyes widened, turning bloodshot, and he roared through the pain.

Xue Lingxun was startled.

But then she realized what she had done.

"Alright! Mother will avenge you!"

"If your father and cousin won't help you, your mother will!"

"Mother will definitely find that little brat for you!"

"Hmph!!!"

This outburst pushed Xu Sanshi to the limit of his pain tolerance.

He grunted twice, then his neck lolled to the side and he fainted.

Xue Lingxun was in a flurry of activity.

After learning that her son was not in danger, she sat by the tatami for a while before leaving with a fierce expression.

night.

Suddenly, a hand pried open Xu Sanshi's mouth, who was still unconscious.

A strong medicinal liquid was poured in.

He was jolted awake by the noise.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

They saw several of the father's subordinates and a pretty young girl.

"ah!!!"

He was both terrified and confused, and was about to shout.

The beautiful young girl suddenly pounced on him.

"Aaaaaaah!!!!!"

Intense pain spread throughout my body.

It almost made him faint from the pain again.

But the medicine he had just swallowed had a cooling sensation that instantly sobered him up.

"Young Master!"

"Stop shouting!"

"The sect leader sent us to help you awaken your martial spirit!"

"If you miss this opportunity, Young Master will be unable to awaken his Martial Soul!"

"roll!!!"

"Get out of here!"

Xu Sanshi was in so much pain that he rolled around on the bed like an eel.

However, he was firmly held down by several highly capable subordinates.

The girl sitting on Xu Sanshi was left to do as she pleased.

"Young Master!"

"The sect leader said so!"

"If you want revenge, endure it! Stay alert and complete your awakening!"

"Your enemies are at least at the Super Douluo level!"

"If you don't awaken the Xuanwu Shield, you can't reach the Super Douluo level, and therefore you won't be able to take revenge!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Sanshi froze.

The medicine I had just drunk seemed to boil in my stomach.

A surge of heat, carrying with it desire and excruciating pain, rushed straight to my brain.

Clearly, this medicine was specially made, and its purpose was not only to keep him conscious.

Xu Sanshi stared wide-eyed, his eyes seemingly about to bleed.

The roars echoed throughout the entire hall.

Utterly disheveled and miserable.

For a very long time.

The roaring finally stopped, and the group left the main hall.

Xu Sanshi lay listlessly on the couch.

It looks like a dead corpse.

suddenly,

A crimson light flashed in his eyes.

The obsession with revenge had seeped into his very bones.

Besides.

A picture of a stunningly beautiful young girl flashed through his mind.

"Miss Nan Nan."

"wait for me!"

"I'll tear that brat to pieces!"

"I'm going to take you back!"

"No one can stop it!"
