Chapter 10

"Huff……"

After another round of the Martial Fist technique, Wu Yuanshen exhaled a deep breath, feeling his entire body refreshed, and his internal energy circulation noticeably smoother. ○

Eighth level of Body Refinement… Vein Refinement Realm!

"Martial cultivation isn’t as difficult as I imagined! Is this what it means to be a genius?"

Wu Yuanshen thought to himself with a touch of narcissism, and he no longer wanted to stay in the Wu family. It would be a complete waste of his world-shocking talent and opportunities!

"Master…"

Hong Bo, the butler who had been waiting on the side, promptly had a refined maid serve a wet towel and clear water, and presented a rough scroll, continuing, "This is the family information of the Fourth Master that the old servant has investigated!"

"Thank you, Uncle Hong!"

Wu Yuanshen comforted him and eagerly unfolded the scroll…

Wu Shiyue!

Primary wife: Daughter of the declining ancient clan Xiangli, Xiangli Shi.

Children: Eldest son Wu Yuanqing, second son Wu Yuanshuang.

Secondary wife: From a branch of the Sui imperial family, the younger brother of Duke Yang Xiong of Guande, Yang family.

Yang Shi, the second daughter of Duke Yang Da, has a face like a fairy, and is suspected to be an adopted daughter, which has been widely criticized within the clan, leading to her being a secondary wife in name but a concubine in reality.

Daughters: Wu Shun, Wu Mei, Wu Lan, three daughters.

Yang Shi had three daughters but no sons, and her reputation was poor, leading to a difficult life, and she was often looked down upon and despised by Wu Shiyue and the clan members…

…

Seeing this, Wu Yuanshen's breathing paused, his thoughts becoming agitated. It was enough!

This was sufficient to prove that this world was indeed the great era of the Sui and Tang dynasties, as recognized in his previous life. Many historical figures and their experiences matched up, and this definitely couldn’t be explained by coincidence.

For Wu Yuanshen, as long as the two historical beauties, Wu Shun and Wu Mei, were correct, it was enough. He had long admired their names!

After careful consideration, if Wu Shun and her mother were living comfortably, Wu Shun would be a direct-line young master. How could Wu Yuanzhong, Wenren Zhong, and others dare to have the idea of ruining her reputation, known as the "Flower of the Wu Family"? The success rate would definitely be very low!

"Beautiful women often have tragic fates. But, heaven favors beauty…"

"Rarity makes things precious! Theoretically, a talented beauty should not be inferior to a talented hero, right?"

"I can't see those world-shaking, era-defining super geniuses for now. Meeting the two super beauties who could bring down a nation and are envied by heaven is also a beautiful thing! If I can take them away, that would be even better…"

Wu Yuanshen quickly made a decision and, eager to do so, took his two close attendants, Wenren Zhong and Du Heng, along with Hong Bo, who was afraid of any further accidents, and the four of them hurriedly headed to his uncle's courtyard…

Of course, this was due to his strong mental power and long-term thinking. Wu Yuanshen did not consider himself a lustful and greedy person!

…

Wu Shiyue, a talented and charming young man in his youth, with sharp thoughts, a long-term vision, and extraordinary insight and ambition, was recognized as the most suitable person to serve as the clan leader in the Wu family, unfortunately, he was not the eldest son of the main line!

Now, he is the second-generation influential figure in the Wu family's main line, overseeing nearly half of the Wu family's commercial power, with extensive connections and high status and power!

Such a person naturally enjoys a high status and treatment in the Wu family. His courtyard is grand and luxurious, ranking among the top in the Wu residence.

However, Yang Shi, the secondary wife of Wu Shiyue, and her three daughters live in a remote corner of the Wu residence, even worse than some influential family servants.

A courtyard of a thousand square meters, without artificial hills, small lakes, or exotic flowers and plants, but with grass and trees, appears quiet and tidy.

"Madam Yang! The Helan clan is a major Xianbei clan and will not disgrace Sister Shun! This is also for the greater good of the clan, Madam Yang, don't be ungrateful…"

When Wu Yuanshen entered the courtyard, two young men in brocade robes, accompanied by four servants, were persuading a woman in a purple robe, but their tone and attitude were clearly not good, somewhat sarcastic.

The two young men in brocade robes, one tall and slender with a face like a jade crown, exuding a refined and elegant aura, is Wu Yuanqing, the eldest son of Wu Shiyue; the other, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, exuding a heroic aura, is Wu Yuanshuang, the second son of Wu Shiyue.

It has to be admitted that the Wu family's genes are quite good.

Of course, Wu Shiyue himself is a well-known handsome man, and the wives he married are also great beauties, so their children naturally wouldn't be bad!

The woman in the purple robe, with delicate and exquisite features, a graceful and charming demeanor, is a rare beauty. However, she has a touch of elegance but lacks a touch of nobility.

This is the secondary wife of Wu Shiyue, the second daughter of Duke Yang Da of the Sui imperial family, Yang Shi.

Dozens of meters away from Yang Shi, a girl leaned against the door, angrily staring at Wu Yuanqing and the others. Her face was like a peach blossom, her beauty captivating, dressed in a green robe like a fairy among flowers, exuding a youthful and alluring aura. Any normal man would find it hard to look away.

This is the famous Wu Shun, known as the "Flower of the Wu Family."

According to Wu Yuanshen's memory from his previous life, Wu Shun initially married Helan Yueshi of the Xianbei clan. After Helan Yueshi's death, due to Wu Zetian being in the palace, Wu Shun often entered the palace and had an affair with Emperor Gaozong of Tang, Li Zhi, and was later enfeoffed as the Lady of Korea, and posthumously as the Lady of Zheng. She is a famous beauty with a notorious reputation, known throughout history.

"Being the daughter of the imperial family and a duke, she lacks a noble aura and instead has a captivating beauty. No wonder she is rumored to be an adopted daughter taken in by Duke Yang Da to appease the Wu family. There are even legends that Yang Shi came from a brothel, and since she only had daughters, her treatment in the clan naturally declined…"

"Looking at Wu Shun, she is only about fifteen or sixteen years old, and they are already discussing her marriage to the Helan clan?"

Just one glance, and the powerful mental strength of Wu Yuanshen brought up a lot of information. Seeing the puzzled and surprised looks of the others, he smiled and greeted them respectfully first:

"Aunt Yang!"

Yang Shi was taken aback and quickly bowed in response, "Young Clan Leader, you are too kind! I am flattered!"

"Huh? The Young Clan Leader actually deigns to visit here, did you not see enough last time?"

Before Wu Yuanshen could say more, Wu Yuanqing pretended to be surprised and shouted, paused for a moment, and quickly added, "However, the clan has already arranged a marriage for Sister Shun to avoid trouble in the clan. Young Clan Leader, don't have any delusions!"

"Disrespectful and undisciplined…"

Wu Yuanshen's face darkened, and he glared at Wu Yuanqing and his brother, shouting, "Get out!"

Before Wu Yuanqing and his brother could say more, Wu Yuanshen, not wanting to get entangled in grudges, turned to Du Heng and instructed, "If they don't listen, throw them out!"

After speaking, he turned to Hong Bo, who was silently following, and requested, "Uncle Hong, if any servant or subordinate dares to defy, kill them without hesitation!"

Wu Yuanqing and his brother, along with the four servants, were taken aback by the words, their expressions surprised but also resentful, and they remained silent.

Hong Bo's reputation and character were well-known in the Wu family.

Wu Yuanshen's numerous assassination attempts were all thwarted by Hong Bo, whose strength was unfathomable. Moreover, he only listened to the Young Clan Leader Wu Yuanshen, and even the Clan Leader and Elders found it difficult to command him!

As for Du Heng, he is the son of the Wu family's guard commander Du Shuo. He may look like a big, clumsy guy, but he is already at the peak of the ninth level of Body Refinement, on the verge of advancing to the Qi Refinement Realm, a true martial cultivation genius, far surpassing the people in the courtyard and even most of the Wu family's young masters!

More importantly, being a big, clumsy guy, he would do exactly as his master instructed, without hesitation or consideration!

"Alright, Young Master!" Du Heng responded solemnly, rubbing his hands in anticipation, without the hesitation and conflict of Wenren Zhong.

Hong Bo remained silent, but his cold gaze towards the servants beside Wu Yuanqing was even more intimidating. It made these servants lower their heads, not daring to move, and even their breathing became as light as possible.

"Still not leaving?!"
