Chapter 6 My Beautiful Cousin

The boy stepped out of the Taiji Palace.

His respectful expression gradually subsided.

A sense of calm and solemnity befitting a young master reappeared.

When the uncles and elders who had been driven out of the hall saw the boy come out, they all surrounded him again.

Driven by self-interest, rules and regulations often fail to provide effective constraints.

Taixu Douluo is the strongest person in the world. Anything he casually gives away is something that people like him could only dream of and never achieve in their entire lives.

Besides, the old man wouldn't be stingy with his eldest grandson.

The first person to approach the boy was an elderly man with gray hair and a withered appearance. His face looked as if it had been violently kneaded, with two different halves.

He grabbed the boy's shoulder and asked urgently:

"Xiao Shuo, what did your grandfather say to you?"

"Why don't you talk to your third uncle about it?"

The boy looked up at his uncle, who was holding his shoulder.

"He didn't say anything, he just looked at my martial soul and offered to help me hunt for my first soul ring."

The uncle of the powerful attack-type titled Douluo frowned, his eyebrows showing deep disbelief.

He narrowed his eyes, staring directly into the boy's eyes, and asked skeptically, "Don't try to fool your uncle, it takes this long to look at a martial soul?"

"Besides, your martial spirit is just a broken spear... what's so interesting about it?"

My uncle snorted lightly, somewhat disdainfully.

In his view, it was disgraceful for the young sect master of the Taixu Sect to not have a dragon-shaped martial spirit.

It's all because of that woman Chen Yuan who seduced the sect leader, resulting in the birth of this monstrous son.

Jiang Shuo could tell what he was thinking just by looking at his expression, and immediately turned cold.

He said calmly, "Third Uncle, I am the Young Sect Master."

"You shouldn't be asking what the Supreme Elder gave me, should you?"

Upon hearing this, the third uncle's face stiffened instantly, and he slowly released his grip on the boy's arm.

"This...this is just curiosity. You're such a little kid...why are you talking to your uncle like that?"

The boy remained unmoved, glancing at it indifferently. "I really didn't say anything."

"Third Uncle is overthinking it."

There's really nothing to say about him and these relatives who only think about getting something for nothing all day long.

He's over a hundred years old and only barely reached the Title Douluo level; it's utterly shameful.

The boy stopped looking at him and walked to his father's side.

"I want to go back to Humble Administrator's Peak, Father."

Zhuozheng Peak is his own mountain peak.

Jiang Yuanshi, who had been silent all along, nodded, a rare hint of gentleness appearing on his usually serious and upright face.

"Go."

The boy bowed to his parents, summoned a cloud beast, and carried him back to the palace.

……

A gentle mountain breeze caressed the boy's still tender forehead and shoulders.

He sat cross-legged on the tamed cloud beast and continued walking towards his mountain peak.

The Taixu Sect is very large, extremely large.

It's bigger than the city he lived in in his previous life.

In such a large family and such a powerful sect, only they themselves know the true nature of human relationships.

Because he was the young sect leader, few of his peers dared to approach him from a young age, and over time, his personality became increasingly withdrawn.

The magnificent palace, the beautiful maids, and the inexhaustible treasures could not fill his loneliness.

Fortunately, he has now awakened his martial spirit and will soon be able to take control of his own destiny.

Thinking of this, the boy felt a little more relaxed. Looking at the palace with its flying eaves, brackets, carved beams, and painted rafters, he felt a touch more human warmth.

The more I look at it, the warmer it feels.

However, what's that figure on the cliff outside the palace?

The young man frowned. A maid wouldn't be so bold, but who could it be?

Soon, the cloud beast carried him closer, and the beautiful figure on the cliff gradually became visible.

It was a woman with long, black hair that covered half her body.

Her hair was as black as ink, so shiny it could reflect a person's image. Her eyes were calm and still, like a deep pool, yet they didn't give off an unfathomable feeling; instead, they made one think that she must be a very gentle woman.

The girl standing in front of the cliff had skin as clear as jade and as white as snow, but her appearance could only be described as above average, not particularly stunning.

On the contrary, her incredibly long legs, half of which were exposed due to her blue dress, were quite eye-catching.

Round and full, without any dirt or grime, it looks like a piece of naturally formed white jade.

Jiang Shuo quickly recognized the person, and a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. "Cousin?! What are you doing here?"

The visitor was Jiang Yun, the daughter of his second cousin.

At only twenty-one years old, he was already a Soul Saint, a rare genius even within the Taixu Sect.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

The young girl smiled gently, her graceful and dignified face making her even more approachable, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons.

"Come see your little brother."

"I heard someone didn't awaken a dragon-shaped martial soul, so I came here to offer some comfort."

Jiang Shuo jumped off the cloud beast and walked to his cousin's side, scratching his cheek sheepishly.

"It's really nothing, it's not like we can't live."

"Moreover, I am born with full soul power, and my martial soul, the Silver Spear, is not bad either."

The girl followed her cousin slowly toward his bedroom.

"It's good to see that you're not too upset."

"I'll protect you from now on."

"Haha, then it's settled... But isn't Sister Yun'er off on a mission?"

"I heard from others that they went to the Sun Moon Empire. How was it there?" Jiang Shuo waved his hand, not wanting to discuss the topic further, and asked elsewhere.

This question stumped Jiang Yun. After lowering her head and thinking for a moment, she said:

"Hmm... a very powerful country. Soul tools have been widely used among the people, so you can imagine how powerful their army is. Although they don't have any true powerhouses yet, it's probably not far off."

Jiang Shuo smiled slightly and did not refute.

The Sun and Moon Empire certainly has experts at the pinnacle of power, and more than one at that.

They were simply completely suppressed by Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent.

Those evil spirit insects are probably hiding in the Demon Forest now.

Ye Xishui, Long Xiaoyao...

These guys are not easy to deal with. My grandfather told me to hide my second martial soul, probably to conceal my true strength and avoid being targeted too early.

Skipping over that topic again, Jiang Shuo smiled at his cousin and said, "Why don't you stay for lunch?"

The girl nodded happily, "No problem."

"Let me try the young sect leader's lunch and see how luxurious it is."

The young sect leader of the Taixu Sect had a truly luxurious lunch.

Even Jiang Yun, a Soul Saint, was stunned when the dish was served.

She sniffed her small, delicate nose and said in surprise:

"Is this the tender thigh meat of a 5,000-year-old Spirit Wind Deer?"

"Could this being stewed together be some kind of snow lingzhi that only grows in the far north?"

The girl's eyes shone brightly. She was not the eldest grandson, and the Second Elder of the Taixu Sect did not only have her as his daughter.

Moreover, she estimated that even her other sisters probably didn't enjoy such treatment on a daily basis; this one dish alone would cost tens of thousands of gold soul coins.

Ingredients are also hard to come by.

Jiang Shuo smiled and did not refute.

Although the Humble Administrator's Palace is usually deserted, no lackey dares to deduct his treatment.

The miserable situation that Huo Yuhao was in is impossible.
