Chapter 39: Chapter 39 Jin Guang and Black Ray
Editor: Exodus Tales

Liang Shaohui could recognize her at a glance, this was indeed Xiao Yuhui’s younger sister, the Second Miss of Xiao Family, Xiao Yuran.

The two were biological sisters after all, and they did resemble each other somewhat.

However, Xiao Yuhui belonged to the type who was extremely dominant, high above the rest, her whole presence like that of a queen.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yuran carried an allure that was delicate and pitiable, a charm that made everyone who saw her want to embrace her and protect her dearly.

In terms of appearance, it wasn’t easy to say who was better between Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran, one could only say their temperaments were different, with Xiao Yuran’s being more captivating.

“Is this the Second Miss of Xiao Family?”

Liang Shaohui’s heart raced; he had been with many women, but he had never encountered someone with the temperament and looks of Xiao Yuran.

Even Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui behind him had their eyes sparkling, secretly thinking that the Xiao Family indeed produced beautiful women.

“Young Master Liang.”

Su Minghui suddenly whispered, “I can’t feel any cultivator’s aura from Xiao Yuran’s body; she must be just an ordinary person.”

“An ordinary person?”

Upon hearing this, Liang Shaohui also sensed Xiao Yuran’s aura and realized she was indeed just an ordinary person.

“Hahaha, heaven helps me too!”

Liang Shaohui laughed heartily inwardly, he had thought it would be somewhat troublesome to get Xiao Yuran to himself, but now it was easy, just an ordinary woman. Would the Xiao Family oppose him, oppose the Liang Family, for a mere ordinary person?

On the Dragon Martial Continent, those who couldn’t cultivate were considered worthless, a point clearly made by the previous example of Su Han.

In Liang Shaohui’s view, even though Xiao Yuran was Xiao Hengshan’s biological daughter, she was ultimately useless. In this world, power was all that mattered. Xiao Hengshan, unless he was a fool, would not oppose him over an ordinary person.

Thinking of this, Liang Shaohui stood up and walked over to Xiao Yuran, putting on a gentlemanly front.

“I am Liang Shaohui, son of the Liang Family Patriarch from Yunyang County City.”

Xiao Yuran looked up at Liang Shaohui but essentially ignored him, heading towards Xiao Hengshan and Xiao Yuhui.

“Hm?”

Liang Shaohui’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, an ordinary woman who couldn’t cultivate daring to ignore him?

What made him even more furious was that Su Han, as he passed by, casually uttered two words.

“Idiot.”

“How audacious!”

Xiao Yuran might be excusable since Liang Shaohui was planning on winning her over, but how dare Su Han insult him like that?

“You stop right there!”

Liang Shaohui suddenly spun around, facing Su Han, “What are you? How dare you speak to this young master like that?”

Su Han paused for a moment, but did not stop, and while walking away, he casually uttered another two words.

“Moron.”

Liang Shaohui nearly erupted, Su Han had spoken a total of two sentences, four words, that tone of superiority, as if looking down on an ant, it was unbearable for Liang Shaohui.

All his life, it had always been him doing this to others, who dared to do this to him?

“Su Han, you are truly presumptuous!”

Seeing Liang Shaohui’s gloomy face, Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui knew their chance to shine had come.

Su Mingxuan immediately exclaimed, “Young Master Liang’s presence in Yuanshan County is an honour, it’s one thing not to respect him, but to insult Young Master Liang, you really don’t know what’s good for you!”

“Fortunately, my father and the others expelled you from the family; otherwise, who knows what disaster you could have brought upon us!” Su Minghui added.

“What gives you the right to speak about my husband like that?”

Xiao Yuran’s eyes widened as she scolded the two, “Have you even seen your own behaviors, yet you have the face to criticize my husband?”

“Forget it.”

Su Han waved his hand and said indifferently, “They’re just two dogs, not worth your anger.”

“Hmph!”

Xiao Yuran snorted and said no more.

“Two dogs? Su Han, I think you’re just jealous. Fine, even if we are dogs, you’re not even worthy to be a dog for the Su Family, which is why you were expelled!” Su Mingxuan laughed coldly.

“Don’t worry.”

Su Han looked at Su Mingxuan and suddenly smiled, “The Su Family will soon be gone.”

“What did you say?”

The two men flew into a rage, “Su Han, you’re really full of big talk, you mean to destroy the Su Family? Shut your mouth, I didn’t come here to watch dogs fight,” Young Master Liang interjected.

Liang Shaohui lost his patience and even pulled out another gold card.

“Patriarch Xiao, there are one million gold coins on this card, plus the previous million, that makes two million in total as a betrothal gift. Is that sufficient?”

Those two million gold coins, including one million from his personal savings, and another million provided by the Liang Family Patriarch, were available for use in Yuanshan County.

Now, Liang Shaohui had taken out all these coins, an indeed significant sum for the small families of Yuanshan County.

Especially for the Xiao Family, the leading family of Yuanshan County, even their annual profits don’t reach a million.

“In my view, the Second Miss is just an ordinary person. I hope Patriarch Xiao will consider carefully,” Liang Shaohui spoke again, his tone full of threats.

No sooner had he spoken than Xiao Yuhui, who was sitting there, stood up abruptly, her beautiful eyes bursting with a fierce chill.

“So what if my sister can’t cultivate? Are you threatening us?” Xiao Yuhui said coldly.

Liang Shaohui did not expect such a strong reaction from Xiao Yuhui and immediately responded, “It’s not a threat, just a fact. On the Dragon Martial Continent, the status of those who cannot cultivate is clear to you all. If she marries me, I might even find a way for her to begin cultivation, after all, the influence of the Liang Family is not something the Xiao Family can compare with.”

“Out!”

Xiao Yuhui waved her hand dismissively, her face icy.

Liang Shaohui frowned, “Xiao Yuhui, although you are an Elder of the Inner Hall of the Cold Cloud Sect, my Liang Family also has members serving as elders there. Leaving the Cold Cloud Sect aside, do you think the Xiao Family can compare with the Liang Family?”

“Considering that you are the son of the Liang Family Patriarch, I’ll give you one more chance, get out now!” Xiao Yuhui added.

“Miss, think carefully. This is Young Master Liang of Yunyang County City!” Su Mingxuan laughed coldly.

“Even though the Xiao Family is the leading family in Yuanshan County, they cannot afford to offend the Liang Family. In my opinion, Miss should hurriedly apologize to Young Master Liang,” Su Minghui chimed in too.

Seeing Xiao Yuhui’s face alternating between shades, Liang Shaohui sneered inwardly and just stood there, seemingly waiting for Xiao Yuhui’s apology.

Meanwhile, Xiao Hengshan and the numerous Guest Elders also looked uneasy.

“Whoosh!”

At that moment, a streak of gold suddenly flashed across the hall.

At the end of that golden streak was a black flash moving with incredible speed, shooting straight out and, to the shock of everyone present…

It pierced Liang Shaohui’s heart!
