C548 â The Shock of the Whole Family
Witnessing her elder daughterâs condition, Li Tingjuan couldnât contain herself and rushed over.
It was evident that both Lin Ruoxi and Lin Ruoxue had inherited Li Tingjuanâs remarkable beauty. Their faces resembled delicate jade.
Lin Ruoxue possessed an exquisite oval face, complemented by her large blinking eyes and long lashes. She was dressed in a black shirt, which, along with her fair complexion, created a striking visual impact.
However, at that moment, Lin Ruoxueâs complexion had completely drained of color. It was clear that she had sustained a severe injury.
âSister, who injured you? Tell me, Iâll kill him!â
Witnessing her sisterâs current state, the young girl was genuinely furious this time. The overwhelming pressure shocked both Lin Weihu and Li Tingjuan, sending a chill down their spines.
Lin Ruoxueâs mouth hung open in disbelief. She stared at her younger sister, whom she had always showered with affection, as if it was their first encounter. âLittle girl, what is your current level of strength?â
âIâm asking you. What exactly happened? Tell me everything. I want Uncle to kill him!â
The young girl pouted in anger, wearing an unhappy expression.
âItâs time to eat!â
In an instant, Guan Shengwu finished cooking and shouted to the outside.
âLetâs eat first. Weâll talk later!â
Lin Weihu quickly changed the topic, afraid that the little girl would really cause trouble.
âUncle, take a look at my second sister. Sheâs injured!â
Lin Ruoxi was seething with anger. Her uncleâs family had always been overbearing, but now they were making a big deal about her relationship with her uncle. They were exploiting their family ties, just as they had always done, if not worse.
âYouâll be fine after drinking a few mouthfuls!â
Guan Shengwu took out his water pouch and passed it to Lin Ruoxue.
Lin Ruoxue declined the offer of the water pouch and looked hesitantly at Guan Shengwu.
Lin Ruoxue immediately grabbed onto Guan Shengwuâs arm and affectionately leaned her head on it. âSecond sister, this is my future husband, Guan Shengwu!â
Guan Shengwu ââŠâŠâ
Everyone was speechless.â
Especially Lin Weihu and Li Tingjuan, both of them wished they could slap themselves unconscious. When did their daughter become so proactive? And in front of so many people.
In the next moment, Lin Ruoxue suddenly grabbed Guan Shengwuâs arm and looked at him eagerly. âAre you really the Guan Shengwu of the small courtyard?â
Guan Shengwu looked at Lin Ruoxue doubtfully and nodded.
âWill you marry my younger sister in the future?â
Lin Ruoxi blushed when she heard that. Then, she looked at Guan Shengwu with eager eyes, as if she wanted to know what Guan Shengwu was thinking.
Guan Shengwu glanced at the little girl and nodded.
When the little girl saw this, she immediately became happy. Her pretty eyebrows slightly raised, and she looked extremely happy and satisfied.
âHaha, this is great. Letâs go, brother-in-law. Follow me to meet those bastards.
They actually said that youâre with my little sister. It was only a momentary impulse. You wonât marry my little sister at all.â
Lin Ruoxue pulled Guan Shengwuâs hand and was about to walk out. However, just as she took a step forward, her face suddenly turned pale and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
âSecond sister!â Only then did the little girl forget the anger in her heart. She turned to look at her sister worriedly and then looked at Guan Shengwu and said, âUncle, please save second sister!â
Guan Shengwu hurriedly opened the water pouch and gave Lin Ruoxue a few mouthfuls.
The Void lightly hummed as endless Spiritual Energy converged towards her. In an instant, the injuries on Lin Ruoxueâs body had healed.
However, Guan Shengwu could tell that there were still injuries in her body, especially those of the Great Dao. Furthermore, she had been injured for too long, and she still needed some time to recuperate before she could fully recover.
âWhat did you give me to drink?â
Lin Ruoxueâs beautiful eyes sparkled, and she wished she could snatch the water sack away from her.
What kind of water is this? Its effect was even better than the Immortal Pill!
A soft sound was emitted from Lin Ruoxueâs body. Her cultivation had actually broken through.
Lin Weihu and his wife looked at this scene in shock.
Breaking through just by drinking water?
It was said that one could break through by drinking cold water in the courtyard. So the rumors were true.
However, this was not the only thing that shocked them.
âLetâs go and eat first!â
Following Guan Shengwu, the little girlâs family was brought to the dining table.
The moment they entered, a strong fragrance immediately rushed into their noses. Lin Ruoxue, who was initially puzzled, suddenly widened her eyes as she looked at the dishes on the table in disbelief.
The little girl had even temporarily forgotten about the injuries on her elder sisterâs body. She looked at the dishes on the table and drooled.
âMy cooking ability is less than one-billionth of Masterâs, but it shouldnât be a problem to heal the injuries of the Great Dao on your body.
However, I didnât bring much. Otherwise, I can help you break through to Great Taoist Master realm. This way, your fate will be in your own hands!â
Guan Shengwu said calmly. What he said was the truth, but when it reached Lin Weihu and his familyâs ears, they were stunned. They looked at the dishes on the table in disbelief.
âWhat did you say? My injury of the Great Dao can also be healed? Is that true?â
Lin Ruoxue looked at Guan Shengwu with anticipation. Her beautiful eyes were filled with hope.
Lin Weihu said in his heart that it was impossible. The injury of the Great Dao could not be healed. This was common sense.
However, he hoped that what Guan Shengwu said was true. He had already used all of his means to heal his daughterâs injuries, but it was all in vain.
âMy Great Daoâs injuries are really recovering!â
Lin Ruoxueâs beautiful eyes widened. She could feel that the injuries on her Great Dao were rapidly recovering.
Li Tingjuan looked at her elder daughter with pleasant surprise. Her older brother was truly overbearing. Who didnât know about the young master of the Mei family in Qilin City? It was common knowledge for miles around.
He was a beast that even his own aunt dared to defy. What else could he possibly hesitate to do?
It was understandable that my older brother would want to collaborate with the Mei family. As the second-largest family in Huang Lincheng, the Lin family had been oppressed by the Huang Family to the point of losing their standing. Forming an alliance with another family was one approach, but my older brother shouldnât sacrifice his daughterâs happiness in the process.
The Mei familyâs marriage proposal was intended for my older brotherâs daughter, but for some reason, the young master of the Mei family discovered Ruo Xueâs existence and insisted on marrying her along with his intended bride.
Ruo Xue didnât desire marriage, but her older cousin eagerly rushed to tie the knot. She even believed that Ruo Xue had stolen the happiness that should have been hers and secretly arranged for someone to harm Ruo Xue. She also instructed the familyâs stewards not to treat Ruo Xue with any respect.
How cruel was this? Could this still be considered a family?
Upon realizing that his daughterâs injuries were beyond conventional treatment, her elder brother resorted to desperate measures, forcing her husband to perform tasks for the family and leaving him no opportunity to gather herbs for their daughterâs injuries.
Li Tingjuan had no emotional attachment to this family. Now that she saw her daughterâs injuries healing, how could she not feel delighted?
âThis isâŠ?â Lin Weihu picked up the bowl and took a sip. Instantly, his eyes widened, and he started breathing rapidly. He looked at Guan Shengwu and asked, âIs this Tianlin Rice?â
When hearing this, Li Tingjuan almost spat out what she had just consumed.
Tianlin Rice? Was it the Sacred Rice?
She had taken a sip and immediately felt the Taoist Charm in her body fervently purifying her. She had been in a state of shock throughout and had paid no attention to what she was eating. Only after her husbandâs reminder did she realize that it was the fabled Tianlin Rice.
Lin Ruoxi couldnât care about so much. The little girl only knew that it was delicious.
âUncle, your food is the best in the world!â
The little girl praised while eating.
Guan Shengwu smiled and said, âThatâs because you have never eaten my masterâs food. His food is the best in the world!â
âReally? When are we going back to the courtyard?â
The little girlâs beautiful eyes were full of expectation.
Suddenly, at this moment, a vast and mighty aura suddenly bloomed, and even the roof was lifted up.
