Chapter 424: How Could He Have Such a Foolish Granddaughter?

Yu Xian’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.

Since arriving in this world, they had only gone out once on the way to the Under Heaven Society, and then they had remained at Xue Luo Manor without leaving. Xueyue City was indeed worth a visit.

“Good, then we will go to Jian Xin Tomb first, and then go wander around Xueyue City,” Yu Xian agreed.

Upon hearing that they were going to Jian Xin Tomb to retrieve weapons and then visit Xueyue City, The Women’s faces immediately showed joy.

“I heard that the sword-forging skill of Jian Xin Tomb surpasses all under heaven. To be able to obtain a weapon personally forged by Senior King Li Su is truly a blessing. Afterward, going to Xueyue City will be a perfect opportunity to relax our state of mind and also allow the sisters to consolidate their recent insights amidst the mountains and waters,” Ning Zhongze said with a gentle smile.

“When do we set off?” Jiang Yuyan was the most impatient. Since entering Xue Luo Manor, her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, yet she still did not possess her own sidearm. She had long been hoping for a handy weapon.

Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm, Yu Xian laughed heartily, “Let’s not delay. We will depart as soon as Yang Guo and the others come out of seclusion and we give them a few instructions.”

The Women all nodded excitedly.

After Yu Xian and the others exited the Small World, Yang Guo and the others had already emerged from their rooms one after another. Each one possessed a steady aura, and their eyes held a bit more clarity and understanding. Clearly, this period of seclusion had yielded significant gains.

“Master, my understanding of the Dao Concept of the Sword has reached another level. Thank you, Master!” The person who should have been very excited said to Yu Xian. Indeed, ten years of practice is not equal to an Immortal fighting.

The rest of the group had also improved, so they all stepped forward to express their thanks, unable to conceal the joy of their Breakthroughs in their expressions.

“It is best that you all have gained something. Next, I need to take your Mistress to Jian Xin Tomb to retrieve weapons, and then we will travel to Xueyue City. The matters of the Manor will still require your diligent attention. If anything arises, you may consult Real Person Zhang,” Yu Xian told the group.

The group responded in unison, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.

Thus, Yu Xian brought the horses he had kept in the Small World back out. Taking his two daughters, and under the pitiful gazes of his two sons, he left Xue Luo Manor.

The two little boys were left behind with Real Person Zhang and their maternal grandfather. Yu Xiangling felt sorry for her older brother and younger brother, so she left the Fire Kirin behind to accompany them. Actually, Yu Xian had said the Fire Kirin was too peculiar and could not be taken out, as it would be too conspicuous and attract covetous eyes, leading to unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, Yu Xian set off toward Jian Xin Tomb, holding his two daughters in his arms, full of excitement.

They traveled day and night, and in a few days, they arrived in the territory of Jian Xin Tomb.

Looking from afar, they could see a rustic manor built against the mountains, surrounded by peaks. Clouds and mist swirled outside the manor, and the faint sight of furnace flames rising could be seen. The air was filled with a dense aroma of iron filings and sulfur—the true location of the sword-forging family.

Just as they arrived outside the main gate of Jian Xin Tomb, they saw a kind-faced old man standing at the entrance. His gaze was as stern and sharp as sword light, possessing the demeanor of an otherworldly Master. He wore an ink-colored long robe, and his brow revealed the wisdom and composure accumulated over the years.

“Grandfather!” Li Hanyi quickly stepped forward and affectionately linked arms with the old man.

King Li Su patted his granddaughter’s hand, his gaze then falling upon Yu Xian. Upon seeing so many women accompanying him, each one impossibly beautiful, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. How could his granddaughter be with such a philandering person?

But as his gaze swept over Yu Xian’s entire being, that displeasure quietly dissipated, replaced by a solemnity and scrutiny.

This young man standing before him appeared casual, yet he seemed to blend seamlessly with heaven and earth. His surrounding aura was perfectly harmonious, making it impossible even for him, an old Jianghu figure steeped in sword forging and martial arts for decades, to fathom his depth.

Especially the two exquisitely carved little girls in his arms; subtle traces of Dragon Qi coiled around their features—they were certainly no ordinary beings.

King Li Su was inwardly startled but maintained a calm expression. He merely inclined his head slightly toward Yu Xian: “Are you the husband that Hanyi recognized, Yu Xian?”

“Yes, Grandfather, I am Yu Xian,” Yu Xian replied calmly and composedly.

“Hmph!” King Li Su snorted at Yu Xian, then said, “Come inside.” After speaking, he turned and led the way into the manor.

Seeing this, Li Hanyi quickly stepped forward and tugged at her grandfather’s sleeve, explaining in a low voice, “Grandfather, please don’t misunderstand. Husband is not a fickle person. The sisters are all sincerely accompanying him. We live together in harmony, never having the slightest conflict.”

King Li Su paused briefly but did not turn back. He merely waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow.

Upon entering Jian Xin Tomb, a plaque inscribed with “Sword Heart Clarity” hung in the center of the main hall. The calligraphy was vigorous and powerful, exuding an unparalleled, fierce Sword Intent.

On both sides of the hall were many sword racks, densely packed with various swords of different types—a truly magnificent sight.

“So many swords!” Yu Xiangling exclaimed innocently.

“Daddy, can you prepare a sword suitable for Xiang’er?” Yu Xiangling ran to the sword racks, looking left and right, seemingly trying to find a sword she could lift.

“Yes, but you need to ask your Aunt Hanyi about this,” Yu Xian said with a smile, stroking Yu Xiangling’s little head.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangling immediately ran over and grabbed Li Hanyi’s hand, sweetly calling out, “Auntie…”

Li Hanyi had also heard what Yu Xiangling had just said, so she smiled and replied, “Okay, Auntie will go beg Grandfather to help Xiang’er find a sword too.”

“Thank you, Auntie, I love you! But, Auntie, what about Brother, Younger Brother, and An’an’s…?” Yu Xiangling counted on her fingers.

“Xiang’er, you can’t push your luck,” Huang Rong shook her head.

“It’s fine. Xiang’er always thinks of her brothers and sister, which is commendable,” Yu Xian stopped Huang Rong, preventing her from stopping Yu Xiangling.

Li Hanyi also loved the children very much, and she loved their unity even more. Thus, she nodded in agreement.

“Grandfather, have the weapons you are forging for the sisters been completed?” Li Hanyi asked King Li Su impatiently, arriving by his side.

King Li Su picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then slowly said, “What’s the rush? Every weapon you requested requires incorporating the essence of heaven and earth and must be tempered for forty-nine days. Currently, only the final procedure of ‘Guiding the Spirit into the Sheath’ remains. Only when the first light of dawn appears tomorrow can the furnace be opened to retrieve the swords.”

“Then, Grandfather, do you have any swords for children?” Li Hanyi asked tentatively.

King Li Su glared at Li Hanyi. It was one thing to marry a man with so many women, but now she was worrying about his children too! How could he have such a foolish granddaughter? What was so good about that Yu Xian?

“Grandfather…” Li Hanyi pouted and acted spoiled, shaking King Li Su’s arm.

“Grandfather, if it weren’t for Husband, I would have already been killed by people from the Under Heaven Society, Dark River, and Tang Sect. Moreover, Husband helped me step into the Spirit Travel Realm. For my sake, Husband even went and destroyed the Under Heaven Society…” Li Hanyi painstakingly explained Yu Xian’s merits.

“Grandfather, if it weren’t for Husband, I might still be waiting for Zhao Yuzhen. Now that Zhao Yuzhen is dead, I…” Li Hanyi did not finish her sentence.

King Li Su was stunned upon hearing this.
