Chapter 56: Smashing a Rock With One Punch!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When it was close to midnight.

The lanterns were taken down, and the liveliness dissipated.

The noblewomen in the pavilion bade farewell and left with their maidservants and servants.

A few of the women had wooden expressions and did not greet the others. They left gloomily like defeated roosters.

They came in high spirits but returned in low spirits.

Originally, they wanted to make use of that son-in-law as an excuse to take Song Ruyue down a notch. However, they did not expect that they would be counterattacked.

They were so depressed that they wanted to spit out blood!

“Qingwan, this is all your fault. Why did you interfere in this? Can’t you just chat with Weimo in the house?”

“That’s right. It wasn’t easy for us and your aunt to find an opportunity to dampen her spirits, but you ruined it all.”

After leaving the residence, a few of them started scolding Su Qingwan in the carriage.

Su Qingwan could not help but smile bitterly. “Aunt, Aunt Zhang, you and Auntie Song have been friends for so many years. Why do you have to be so mean all the time?”

Her aunt rolled her eyes at her. “You came late, so you didn’t see how arrogant your Aunt Song was. She pointed at my face and said that I have wrinkles and

bad skin…”

The woman opposite her, Aunt Zhang, said angrily, “She even mocked me for having saggy breasts after I’ve given birth. She even stood up to flaunt her buxom chest at me. She’s gone too far!”

The corners of Su Qingwan’s mouth twitched, but she did not dare to say anything else. She lowered her head and looked at the two pieces of paper in her hand. The image of the tall figure reflected in the window and the handsome face she saw at the door appeared in her mind. Her expression was complicated as she muttered softly, “What a pity…”

“Qingwan, did you really see the boy write these poems with your own eyes?” Su Qingwan’s aunt suddenly asked.

Su Qingwan nodded. Her heart was in turmoil, but she did not say anything.

“Sigh, if it’s true, Song Ruyue and the Qin family have picked up a treasure.

With that kid’s talent, I’m afraid he won’t just be a High Scholar in the future. He might even be an Advanced Scholar or get into the top three rankings.”

“The Qin residence has a hereditary title of nobility, but their family is in decline now. If their prestige can be resurrected with a son-in-law, MO City will be in for a good show.”

“That’s right. When the time comes, the most exciting thing will probably be the reactions of those snobbish fellows from the Chengguo Residence. They will probably regret it.”

“However…”

The two noblewomen suddenly lowered their voices.

“Do you think that the eldest daughter of the Qin family is really a fool? Ever since she came back, she has never seen outsiders. She must have been triggered by something when she was kidnapped, that’s why she is in this state. That kid is talented and ambitious. Will he feel upset and unfair at having such a wife?”

“Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Thinking about it, Ruyue is quite pitiful. One daughter has been kidnapped for so many years, and the other daughter has been plagued by illness since she was young. It’s said that Qin Weimo doesn’t have much time left. Sigh..

“Let’s not talk about it anymore. Qingwan, don’t spread what happened tonight. That kid is probably concealing his talent and staying under the protection of the Qin family. If you spread his name, the Chengguo Residence will probably do something again.”

“Aunt, I know. I also told Aunt Chen and the others this earlier. Tomorrow, when you meet them, you can remind them again.”

“I think it’ll be fine. Even if word gets out, people might not take it seriously. After all, he’s just a son-in-law who has never stood out. Moreover, now that our Great Yan Empire advocates martial arts, the Chengguo Residence might not care.”

The few of them chatted as the carriage drove through the dark street.

In the Qin residence.

The maidservants were busy packing up the lanterns and other trash scattered on the ground.

After sending off the guests, Song Ruyue immediately rushed to her second daughter’s place, surrounded by a group of maidservants and old maidservants.

When they were about to arrive, Mei’er couldn’t help but ask, “Madam, should I inform Sir?”

Song Ruyue, who was worried about her daughter’s condition, froze. “What? Say what?” 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Mei’er looked at her carefully and said, “When you were in the pavilion earlier, you told me to tell Sir to plant flowers in your garden from tomorrow onward…”

Song Ruyue’s eyebrows twitched. She rolled her eyes and glared at her. “You talk too much. I’ll cut off your tongue!”

Mei’er hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake, not daring to mention it again.

Song Ruyue’s expression changed for a while before she snorted. “Tell him to study hard in the house so that he can take the imperial examination and earn a reputation for the Qin family. If he fails, he’ll be in trouble! Hmph!”

“Yes, I’ll go now.”

Mei’er left in a hurry.

After she left, Song Ruyue was secretly pleased with herself. “That brat is indeed capable. Looks like the Qin family has really picked up a treasure. I only hope that this treasure won’t run away. I have to help Jianjia keep an eye on him… ‘

The candles flickered.

Luo Qingzhou was in high spirits. He was still sitting at the desk and reading.

Xiao Die quietly opened the door and looked at him a few times. She did not dare to disturb him and quietly retreated.

Not long after, there was a light knock on the door.

Luo Qingzhou frowned. Who was here again? Could it be that his mother-in-law was here to teach him a lesson for standing her up?

Xiao Die hurriedly ran to open the door.

Mei’er was standing outside the door. After Xiao Die opened the door, Mei’er barged into the small courtyard. Seeing that there was light in the room, she said, “Xiao Die, Sir isn’t asleep yet, right? Madam asked me to bring him a few words.”

When Luo Qingzhou heard this, he got up, pushed open the window, and looked outside.

When Mei’er saw him, she stopped and said, “Sir, Madam told me to relay some words to you. She said that you have to study hard at home so that you can take the imperial examination and earn a reputation for the Qin family. If you can’t pass the examination, Madam will teach you a lesson!”

In the end, she let out a “hmph”. It was unknown if she had let out that snort

because of her imposing manner or if she had especially imitated that “hmph”

from Madam.

.

Luo Qingzhou asked, “That’s it?”

Mei’er nodded and turned to leave. After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and smiled sweetly. “Madam is very proud tonight. It’s all your credit.”

After saying that, she smiled at Xiao Die and left in a hurry.

Luo Qingzhou closed the window and continued reading.

The next day.

Moonlight Rain Court.

In the secluded bamboo forest in the northwest corner, the faint sound of wind and lightning sounded again.

Although he was very interested in knowing more about the human soul, till now, Luo Qingzhou still had no idea where to begin learning from. Therefore, there was no need to continue wasting time. It was more important to seize the time to cultivate and strengthen his body.

Since the ink-black liquid could increase his Spiritual Power, he just had to consume it on time.

He would check if there were any bodily changes once his Spiritual Power reached a certain extent.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

He punched out consecutively. From slow to fast, his punches became more and more powerful. His voice became louder and louder, and his might became stronger.

Dead leaves danced in the air, and the bamboo swayed and rustled.

Sweat quickly seeped out of his naked upper body. His once relaxed skin and muscles were already tense and firm. With every punch, his skin and flesh trembled as if endless power erupted.

Boom!

He punched a nearby tree trunk.

The thick tree trunk whose bark was no longer there suddenly cracked and caved in. At the same time, the white wood inside instantly turned black.

Luo Qingzhou suddenly turned around and punched behind him, sending out a heat wave. With a bang, it sounded like a thunderclap.

The green bamboo in front of him rustled and shook off bamboo leaves.

He did not go back for lunch.

For the entire day, he practiced the Thunder Fist in the bamboo forest, sweating profusely. The more he practiced, the more energetic he became. The more he practiced, the louder the sound became. It was as if there was really a faint sound of thunder coming from the fist.

Fortunately, this place was far from the door and deep in the bamboo forest.

Very few people came to the lake during the day.

Time passed quickly as he immersed himself in cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, it was already one month since he got married. He could go out of the city to pay his respects to his mother.

After eight to nine days of hard cultivation, his Thunder Fist became more and more proficient, and its power became more and more shocking.

At the same time, he felt that his skin and flesh were becoming tougher.

Underneath the membrane, his muscles heated up. Occasionally, they would feel extremely sore and painful. The muscles would jump around and absorb all the energy in his body. It was obvious that it was time to refine his flesh.

With the help of the black liquid, his Spiritual Power had increased by two points, reaching 13.

His physique and spirit had improved qualitatively.

That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.

Luo Qingzhou brought Xiao Die to a corner of the lake to take a bath.

He brought a stone over and let Xiao Die look at it. Then, he raised his fist and smashed it at the stone in his hand.

Bam!

His fist slammed into the hard rock.

Xiao Die exclaimed in shock.

Crack!

His fist was unscathed, but the rock was split in half.

Luo Qingzhou threw away the stone and stroked his fist which was as tough as copper. He was a little proud. “Xiao Die, am I tough?”

The little girl widened her eyes and nodded repeatedly with admiration.

“Tough! Young Master is so tough!”

The two of them stood naked facing each other in the misty lake.

Luo Qingzhou stroked his fist and said proudly, “Just wait. There’s something even tougher! At that time, not to mention this small stone, even if it’s metal, I will be able to smash it into pieces!”

The little girl’s face turned red from the heat. Her clear and innocent eyes seemed to glimmer like stars. She looked at him all starry-eyed and said, “Young Master, you’re so awesome… I-I want to…”

“Accompany me out of the city tomorrow to visit Mother’s grave.”

Luo Qingzhou started to bathe and thought about what would happen tomorrow.

“Okay…”

The little girl came back to her senses.

After a moment, she suddenly said, “Young Master, you have to pay your respects to Young Miss later. You… You can ask Bai Ling…”

“Ask what?”

“Last time… Last time, Bai Ling said that Miss would reward Young Master once. It hasn’t… hasn’t been fulfilled yet.”

Luo Qingzhou did not want to reply to her.

He scrubbed his body and fell into deep thought.

Xiao Die suddenly approached him and pressed her hot face against his chest. She whispered shyly, “Young Master, if you don’t dare, I… I will help you to ask her. I can also help you…”

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and looked at her snow-white shoulders and blushing face under the moonlight. His heart warmed and he hugged her..
