Monarch Of Time

Chapter 1014 The Xie family

Turning around, the middle-aged man trembled when he saw the person standing behind him, before he hurriedly fell to his knees and called out

ʼʼYoung lady!ʼʼ

The remaining 5 guards in front of the estate seemed to mimic his actions as well, as they quickly knelt down and shouted with respectful voices

ʼʼYoung lady!ʼʼ

However, Xingyi merely waved at them before she moved towards Shun Long, her radiant smile momentarily dazzling Fu Li and Lan Jinjing as the young woman hugged him affectionately.

This scene ended up stunning both the young couple from the Desolate East, as well as the half a dozen guards of the Xie estate who now looked at her young lady with incredulous looks!

Was this the same young lady who had arrived in the Xie estate a month ago and had flipped the entire Xie family upside down? The same tyrannical peak-stage Dao King whom even the patriarch of the Xie family had to respectfully address as esteemed niece, and whom even their old patriarch dared not offend?

At the same time, Fu Li was now staring at Shun Long with wide eyes, uncertain if he wanted to curse him or praise him. It was one thing for Shun Long to have gotten Liu Mei as his wife, but he somehow managed to snatch another woman who was just as unbelievably beautiful?

Noticing that Xingyi seemed to be just as curious about Fu Li and Lan Jinjing, Shun Long nodded his head and introduced them to each other

ʼʼThis fattyʼs name is Fu Li and heʼs been my friend for many years now. In fact, he is no different from Jiang Chen and Longtian. As for the girl next to him, her name is Lan Jinjing and she is his wife, as well as Meiʼerʼs childhood friend.ʼʼ

Then, Shun Long introduced Xingyi to them as the five of them headed deeper into the Xie estate.

After hearing that Fu Li was Shun Longʼs close friend, Xingyi told him and Lan Jinjing to address her casually as well, before she led everyone into a small courtyard at the depths of the estate.

Inside the courtyard sat a handsome middle-aged man, a middle-aged woman by his side, and finally, a beautiful woman in her early 30s whom Shun Long was already familiar with.

With a smile on her face, Xingyi stepped forward and glanced at the middle-aged man and the woman next to him before she called out

ʼʼFather! Mother!ʼʼ

Xingyiʼs parents raised their heads and looked at their daughter, only to see her affectionately hold the arm of an unfamiliar, azure-robed young man. However, the beautiful woman next to them stood up when she saw Shun Long and Liu Mei, as if she had suddenly been electrified, before she asked in a trembling voice

ʼʼYoung master... Shun? Young lady Liu?ʼʼ

Of course, this woman was none other than Xie Rong, the guild master of the ʼPale Moon guildʼ whom Shun Long had met when he and Liu Mei first arrived in the ʼNight star continentʼ.

Back then, Xie Rong had told Shun Long the story of how her father had stolen a ʼDragon Lordʼs Medalionʼ from their Xie family and traded it for a pill to help cure his wife, causing him to get banished from the Xie family.

That was why Xie Rong had ended up founding the ʼPale Moon guildʼ to search for another one of those medallions.

And indeed, it was only after she got a medallion with Shun Longʼs help that the young woman returned to the Silver mountain to restore her fatherʼs honor.

Nodding his head, Shun Long cupped his hands at the beautiful woman and smiled lightly as he said

ʼʼGuild master Xie, itʼs been a while!ʼʼ

Of course, Xie Rong had already heard from Xingyi about Shun Long and Liu Mei and what they had experienced together in the Holy sect, but the shock she felt after seeing them once more wasnʼt something that she could put into words.

No matter what, Xie Rong considered Shun Long her benefactor since she knew she had no hope of obtaining a ʼDragon Lordʼs medallionʼ without his help.

Xingyiʼs parents had also heard about Shun Long and Liu Mei from their daughters, so they were just as curious about this young man who had saved their eldest daughterʼs life while capturing the heart of their youngest.

A while later, Shun Long also heard about everything Xingyi did after returning to the Silver mountain.

Apparently, the current patriarch of the Xie family and the old patriarch had chosen to forgive Xingyiʼs father after Xie Rong returned with another ʼDragon Lordʼs medallionʼ, but they still didnʼt allow them to take any official positions in the family. He could only be an honorary Elder at most, and the same went for Xie Rong!

However, after Xingyi returned back from the central continent with a cultivation base of a peak rank 9 Dao King, everything changed. The old patriarch personally begged Xingyi to become the next family head while giving Xie Rong and her father official positions within the family once more. Even the current patriarch, Xingyiʼs uncle didnʼt seem to oppose the idea of her leading the family, and in fact even supported it.

After all, his niece was now a peak-stage Dao King. How many peak-stage Dao Kings existed throughout the entire ʼNight star continentʼ, let alone any that were so young? Everyone thus knew that with Xingyi at the helm of the family, the Xie familyʼs rise was pretty much guaranteed!

However, Xingyi unhesitantly rejected the old patriarchʼs offer, telling him that she had no plans of staying in the ʼNight star continentʼ for too long.

When her grandfather heard that he was initially disappointed, before a different train of thought appeared in his mind. If Xingyi somehow made a name for herself in the central continent, wouldnʼt that mean that their Xie family would have a chance to follow her and relocate there in the future? Even if they could only become subordinates of a first or second-rate power there, their status would still rise tenfold compared to their current situation in the ʼNight star continentʼ!

Thus, from that day forth, Xingyiʼs status in the Xie family had skyrocketed becoming even higher than the old patriarchʼs.
