Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 193: Genuine or Fake Intentions?

The Divine Clan has been on a decline over the years, especially after that Young Master fell into a coma; they have already started to regret it.

They are just subordinates; why interfere in the master’s personal matters for no reason?!

Now, with the Divine Clan leaderless, those at the top have their own agendas, each racking their brains to seek benefits for themselves. At this rate, their position at the top of the Hundred Families is at risk!

As for Song Juan, they initially did not think highly of this woman.

But this woman was fortunate, as the Young Master couldn’t forget her, and the daughter she bore had a very pure bloodline.

The Divine Clan is now in such a decline, and for the future of the Divine Clan, accepting Song Juan is not impossible.

After all, in ancient times, there was a saying that a mother’s status rises with her son; if they could be lenient with Song Juan, and keep Xia Mian, they were willing to be lenient with her.

"Miss, please wait at the Divine Manor. We’ll go find your mother’s whereabouts, alright?" The Great Elder smiled fawningly at Xia Mian.

For the future of the Divine Clan, he could forgo any sense of dignity!

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes slightly, yet before she could speak, Qin Ru couldn’t hold back anymore, "What are you doing? Going to find that mortal woman? Keeping the bastard child of that slut?! Since when does the Divine Clan need to humble themselves to please someone?!"

Qin Ru was truly infuriated.

Indeed, the Divine Clan has been in decline these years, but a dead camel is still larger than a horse. Within the Mystical Sects, the Divine Clan still holds a lofty status. How could they stoop to pleasing the bastard child of a slut?!

"Madam, please show some respect! If this young lady is the Young Master’s bloodline, she is the young lady of our Divine Clan!" The Great Elder’s expression turned serious, and he did not mince words with Qin Ru.

Back then, when the Young Master returned from the real world, he fell into a coma. They never knew the Young Master had left a bloodline in the real world.

Now, once they know, how could the Divine Clan’s blood be allowed to remain outside?!

"You old fools! Whatever benefits you is the Divine Clan’s young lady, and whatever doesn’t is a waste of the Clan?" Qin Ru sneered and looked at the elders with disdain.

"Don’t forget, the Divine Master had serious objections to that woman! The Divine Master is merely missing, not dead! You’re making decisions without him, keeping this mother and daughter in the Divine Clan. Wait until the Divine Master returns, and you’ll suffer the consequences!" Qin Ru furiously pointed at the elders, scolding them.

Yet the Great Elder did not take Qin Ru’s threats to heart at all.

It’s a different era now; with the Divine Clan fallen to this extent, why bother with those so-called rules, isn’t that cutting oneself off from the past?

"Madam doesn’t need to worry about that!" The Great Elder smiled mildly, then bowed lightly to Xia Mian, "Miss, please follow me!"

Xia Mian reached out to hold Lu Zechuan’s hand, following the Great Elder out of the small courtyard slowly.

The Great Elder’s gaze hovered on Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan’s hands for a moment, then quietly averted his eyes, "This one is from the Wood Clan?"

Xia Mian squinted slightly and smirked, asking back, "Do you have any objections?"

"You jest, miss; how could I have any objections..." The Great Elder chuckled and continued leading the way.

Behind them, Xia Weizhang leisurely added, "This one from the Wood Clan originally had a marriage arrangement with our Divine Clan’s young lady."

Upon these words, the Second Elder lightly coughed without showing any emotion.

Xia Weizhang chuckled, not continuing the topic.

However, Xia Mian narrowed her eyes slightly. Lu Zechuan once had a marriage arrangement with the Divine Clan’s young lady, yet the Divine Clan was responsible for the downfall of the Wood Clan.

After the Wood Clan declined, the young lady of the Divine Clan felt Lu Zechuan no longer matched her. Afraid he would pester her in the future, she actually sent people to harm him multiple times?

Xia Mian thought she had discerned the truth.

Subconsciously, she tightened her grip around Lu Zechuan’s hand and turned her head to glance at him.

Lu Zechuan’s deep black eyes met hers briefly but didn’t speak.

From the few words and attitude of these people from the Divine Clan toward Lu Zechuan, Xia Mian also realized things might not be so harmonious between the Mystic Sect and the Wood Clan.

The thought briefly flashed through both their minds, and neither of them wanted to dwell on it.

The past grievances of the older generation were unknown to them, nor did they intend to be bound by the grudges of the past.

Ding Cheng strolled casually behind, his lips curling up slightly as he chuckled lightly, "The Divine Clan brought about the downfall of the Wood Clan. The marriage agreement between the Divine Clan and the Wood Clan seems more like a joke!"

Xia Weizhang turned back to glance at Ding Cheng, "There’s nothing for you here; you can leave now."

Ding Cheng chuckled lightly, lazily rolling his eyes, "Which eye do you see that I’m following you?"

Ding Cheng wanted to leave, but by coming with Xia Mian, she had thoroughly offended Xia Weiyang. She feared being plotted against by Xia Weiyang if she left alone.

Xia Mian subtly turned to glimpse at Ding Cheng, her expression carrying a hint of amusement.

Feeling uncomfortable under her gaze, Ding Cheng stiffened her neck and snorted coldly, "What are you looking at?!"

Xia Mian coldly laughed, "You better pray nothing happens to my mom; otherwise, I’ll make sure you accompany her in death!"

With those words, Xia Mian turned and left with Lu Zechuan’s hand in hers.

Staring at Xia Mian’s retreating figure, Ding Cheng squinted her eyes slightly.

Just now, she felt a strong murderous aura from Xia Mian!

Xia Mian’s aura was truly much stronger than Xia Weiyang’s.

Ding Cheng smirked slightly and murmured, "The true young lady of the Divine Clan, huh?"

Yet, Qin Ru probably wouldn’t let Xia Weiyang give up her position so easily!

Originally, Ding Cheng wanted to avoid Xia Weiyang’s sharpness; now, staying was purely to watch the spectacle unfold.

The Divine Clan, so lofty and arrogant all this time, was bowing their heads for the first time!

However, based on her understanding of the Divine Clan, things were probably not that simple!

Xia Mian followed the Great Elder of the Divine Clan to an elegant courtyard, which was more abundant in Spiritual Energy compared to Xia Weiyang’s small house.

"Miss, please sit for a moment. We’ll check on your mother’s status immediately!" The Great Elder smiled faintly, turning to glance at Xia Weizhang, "Keep the esteemed guest well-attended; if anything happens to them before we return, you’ll be held accountable!"

Xia Weizhang quickly smiled in agreement, "Great Elder, rest assured, I will take good care of my cousin!"

Only then did the Great Elder leave with the Second Elder and Third Elder.

"Cousin, please have a seat!" Xia Weizhang gestured to Xia Mian courteously, like a gentleman.

Xia Mian smiled faintly and sat beside Lu Zechuan, shoulder to shoulder,

Xia Weizhang then called the attendants to serve tea.

Xia Weizhang personally poured tea for Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan, then politely returned to his seat, "Cousin, please enjoy the tea!"

Xia Mian did not move but slightly lowered her gaze to look at the cup of tea.

The aroma of the tea was rich and fragrant, surpassing even the best tea bricks from the real world, and faintly exuding Spiritual Energy.

However, being in a foreign place, Xia Mian did not easily drink the cup of tea.

Xia Weizhang’s expression subtly changed but soon laughed lightly, "Cousin, are you afraid I might tamper with the tea?"
