Chapter 47: A Whole New Level Of Respect

Translator: Jillian Editor: Jimmy“Can you be any more boring than this?” Qin Wushuang’s mouth twitched as he lightly spoke.He completely ignored Du Xiang’s eagerness to show off and his attempts to play to part of ahero among the higher-class aristocrats.Back then, he’d been forced to defend himself against Ye Feng during their encounter at thejewelry shop despite the fact that Ye Feng did have some strength and he came from aVenerable family, he’d had no other options. However, today he was at the Venerable Da Xifamily’s castle and had to show them some respect. He certainly did not want to get involved inan altercation with this guy and ruin the party.When the crowd saw that Qin Wushuang had ignored Du Xiang’s righteous rant, the crowdjeered loudly. This only made Du Xiang feel like people were trampling hard on his pride as aWealthy Class aristocrat.“Stay!”With a swish, he suddenly raised his right arm, the numerous shadows of fists flew out andattacked Qin Wushuang from behind.A sneak attack. An offspring of the Wealthy Class had dared to mount a sneak attack on aHumble Class youth in front of an audience.“Stop, Du Xiang!”“Stop!”A few berating voices came as both Da Xi Yue and Da Xi Yang rushed over.In the next moment, Du Xiang only felt something flash across his eyes. Then, one of his armssuddenly became numb, as if an iron hoop had bound it. A wave of pain instantly traveledthrough his entire body and a river of sweat poured down from his face and head.Qin Wushuang stared at Du Xiang coldly, his eyes seemed like a storm as he said with a harshtone: "It does not concern me whether you are trying to show off your superiority or not. Even ifyou had provoked me viciously, I wouldn’t have responded since we are guests at the VenerableDa Xi’s party. But, since you have shamefully mounted a sneak attack on me, then don't blameme for not showing any mercy."As soon as Qin Wushuang finished speaking, he used his internal force and tugged forcefully.Ka-Cha!

Du Xiang's right arm was instantly twisted like a knot. In fact, the arm was twisted so muchthat it no longer seemed recognizable as an arm.With an agonizing scream, Du Xiang immediately lost consciousness.Qin Wushuang turned around and addressed Da Xi Yue in a somewhat apologetic tone: "MissyDa Xi, your guest was way too arrogant. Forgive me for being so forceful."

Da Xi Yue had heard from Da Xi Ming about Qin Wushuang’s power. Thus, she knew that QinWushuang had shown mercy. With his usual character, Qin Wushuang was already showingthem great respect since he had not killed Du Xiang on the spot.“You are not wrong in this matter.” Da Xi Yue did, after all, have the ability to judge right fromwrong.However, Da Xi Yue's words left all those surrounding aristocrats feeling extremely surprised.Missy Da Xi was actually exonerating an offspring of the Humble Class of any wrongdoing?"Missy Yue, although it was wrong for Du Xiang to attack first, this Humble Class guy is alsosomewhat arrogant." One of Da Xi Yue’s classmates, a Venerable Class young man, said with asmile.“Young Master Mi is correct. In fact, people of the Humble Class should not be participating inMissy Yue’s birthday party. Du Xiang was only doing this to maintain the pride of us upperclassaristocrats. He only had good intentions.”Most of Da Xi Yue's classmates had studied at the Redwood Martial Arts Academy. Studentscame from all of the eight territories, the sixty-four counties of Redwood Royal region. Not onlydid Venerable family offsprings go to the academy, but even some people of the Feudal Lordfamilies also studied there.Therefore, there were many Venerable offspring that had came to participate in Missy Yue'sbirthday party. These offspring of the Venerable families were the same as Ye Feng. Most ofthem had a sense of superiority that came from being upper-class aristocrats.Of course, to Qin Wushuang, this feeling of superiority was very childish. He slowly glanced atthis group of so-called upper-class aristocrats that had become angry for Du Xiang and saidlightly: "Indeed, my Qin family is only a Humble Class. We only attended this feast because DaXi Ming invited us. However, I did not know a bunch of small-minded people was alsoattending. If I had known it, I would not have come. If you are feeling aggrieved over what had

just happened, then you are free to challenge me privately, one on one. However, right now, weare at a banquet hosted by the Venerable Da Xi family. It would be inappropriate andinconsiderate to cause trouble for our hosts."A stream of hisses immediately emerged as soon as he had finished talking. Since QinWushuang was only a Humble Class, it was clear that everyone felt that he had no right to speakthese words, regardless of whether he wanted to share his perspective.One of the Venerable Class offsprings laughed coldly: "Son of the Qin family, do you know thatyour words have offended all of the aristocrats here?"Qin Wushuang smiled lightly and said casually: “I never intended to please anyone.”Finished with the conversation, he smiled and turned to walk away, ignoring the variety ofexpressions on the faces of these aristocrats.Just when he was about to leave the hall to get some fresh air, Da Xi Ming coincidentallyreappeared with Qin Xiu. Da Xi Ming immediately noticed the tension in the hall. The smileinstantly froze on his face, and a few traces of anger emerged.He was familiar with Qin Wushuang’s character and knew that he would never take theinitiative to cause trouble. On the contrary, his littler sister’s classmates had eyes on top oftheir heads. Most of them had a deep sense of superiority ingrained into them from birth and

enjoyed creating drama. It was quite evident who the troublemakers were. Da Xi Ming hadalready dropped some rather obvious hints at them during his last “conversation” with Da XiYue and yet, these people had no self-awareness at all.“Little Brother Wushuang, please stop for a moment.”Qin Wushuang looked back and smiled bitterly: “Big Brother Da Xi, it seems that people of theHumble Class are not welcome here."Da Xi Ming face turned gloomy and he turned to speak to Da Xi Yue: “Yue’Er, today you are themain character of the feast. You invited these people, these friends of yours. I hope things willstop here before they go any further."Da Xi Yue was, in fact, also quite furious. She stared at Du Xiang and then glanced around thatgroup of unfriendly looking classmates. She shouted: “Everyone, you are all guests of the Da Xifamily. Regardless of your social statuses or family background. If everyone genuinely hadsome unresolvable dispute, then feel free to deal with it outside the doors of the Da Xi home.

Whoever wants to cause trouble here, you will be going against with the Venerable Da Xifamily!”Since the master of the party had spoken, all those aristocratic young people who had initiallywanted to cause trouble restrained themselves. They withdrew their anger. They had onlywanted to show off in front of Da Xi Yue and was not really doing this for Du Xiang's sake. But itwas obvious from Da Xi Yue's tone, she was infuriated over their grandstanding. Thus, theyrestrained their arrogance.However, the looks they shot at Qin Wushuang were still quite unfriendly.Qin Xiu was very smart, so she had quickly guessed what had happened. She walked over andgrabbed her littler brother's arm with both hands. Then, she looked at this group of unrulyaristocrats cautiously.Although she had no power, she would always stand together with Qin Wushuang on the biggermatters. No one would be allowed to bully Qin Wushuang in front of her.At this moment, an announcement came from within: “Grand Matriarch Da Xi has arrived!”The main hall, which was initially bustling with noise, instantly fell silent as soon as the crowdheard the crystal clear announcement. Even the faces of the Da Xi siblings turned respectfuland devout.Especially those River County aristocrats who recognized the supreme status that the GrandMatriarch held in the Venerable Da Xi family. Each and every one of them lightly bowed with arespectful expression. They were waiting on the appearance of the Grand Matriarch.Under hundreds of gazes, this white-haired, young-looking elderly woman slowly walked intothe hall with Patriarch Da Xi supporting her.The face of the elderly lady was radiating with health and vigor. She had a face full of kindsmiles, and she could not help but nod as she saw the hall full of guests. She smiled even morewhen she noticed Qin Xiu. She waved her hand at Qin Xiu, motioning for her to come over.Da Xi Ming exclaimed: “Grandmother is asking us to go over there.”Previously, when Da Xi Ming had brought Qin Xiu to see his grandmother, whether it was QinXiu’s manners, appearance or personality, she had been completely won over by Qin Xiu. In

private, she had already extolled of Qin Xiu’s positives to Da Xi Heng, hinting that she loved QinXiu. And she would be the first choice if they wanted a wife for her grandson.

Da Xi Heng could only smile bitterly. He did not dare to oppose her, nor did he dare to agree.Qin Xiu walked over and said politely: “I wish you good health and a long life.”She gestured at Qin Wushuang and introduced him: “This is my little brother, Qin Wushuang.”Qin Wushuang smiled: “It’s a pleasure to meet you.”"Good! Excellent! You are very handsome." She took Qin Wushuang’s hand and lightly patted ita few times. Since the elderly lady had become endeared with Qin Xiu, her goodwill was alsoextended to Qin Xiu’s family. She had a very kind disposition.Qin Wushuang was a grandmaster of martial arts in his previous life and upon having hisgrasped by the elderly lady, he immediately sensed that she had once been a great martialartist. Only now, her pulse felt empty due to bad health and a stagnation in her liver.A light smile immediately appeared on his face as he whispered: "It’s hard to imagine that youwere a great martial artist. I had underestimated you."He had deliberately lowered his voice and only the elderly lady and Da Xi Heng could hear him.Although he did not want to show off, he intended to reveal his skills to them.Of course, it was not to sell himself, but to fight for his sister, Qin Xiu. From his perspective, QinXiu had left a good impression on the grandmother. Thus, it's worth him fighting for it.As soon as he said these words, the elderly lady was stunned. Da Xi Heng, who was standingnext to her, also showed some doubt as he looked at Qin Wushuang in surprise.“The elderly lady had suffered damage from repeated childbirths. She lacked strength andneeded to be replenished with proper nutrition."Da Xi Heng asked with a grave tone: "How could you know?"“Grand Matriarch practiced a more feminine style of martial arts. I understand she has givenbirth to many children, and during that period, she let too many things accumulate on hermind. As a result, her pulse became irregular and caused an imbalance between the Yin andYang Qi inside her. She was overwhelmed by the Yang Qi, which damaged the blood vessels inher entire body. Thus, she lost all of her power.”In his former world, Qin Wushuang had been a grandmaster of martial arts and a legendarydoctor. He had seen many cases like her’s. Thus, he spoke with assurance.At first, Da Xi Heng listened with suspicion. But by the time Qin Wushuang had finished talking,he had become solemn. He looked at Qin Wushuang with a whole new level of respect!
