Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Acknowledge Ancestors and Return to the Clan (10)

At first, if the Young Madam hadn’t prevented her own daughter from attending to the Young Master, perhaps her daughter wouldn’t have chosen suicide due to unrequited love. It was precisely because of the pain of her daughter’s death that he agreed to the Nangong Family’s request, helping their individual enter the Xiao Family and snatch away the daughter of the Young Madam.

His daughter was in the prime of her youth, with Talent and looks that were not inferior, wishing only to become a concubine to the Young Master–what right did she have to stop her? Which man in this world would spend a lifetime with only one woman?

Having three wives and four concubines was nothing out of the ordinary.

“Xiao Yin, what you really want to talk about is your own daughter, isn’t it?” Madam Sheng Yue looked coldly towards Xiao Yin with a sneer, “Then I’ll tell you now why. You’re a man and naturally won’t understand our women’s thoughts. In your eyes, a man should have three wives and four concubines, surrounded by beauties, but as a woman, I love my husband and would not share him with anyone else. Moreover, when have you ever seen me prevent my husband from taking concubines? Those women were all rejected by my husband himself. If my husband wants to take concubines, he can, but then I would divorce him. If he longs to take a concubine, I definitely can’t stop him, just like he can’t stop me from wanting to leave the Xiao Family.”

In her entire life, she would not share her husband with anyone else.

If Xiao Tianyu truly did something to betray her, then that man wouldn’t be worth the deep affection she gave him.

“Yu’er,” Xiao Tianyu stepped forward, tenderly embracing her body into his arms, then lifted his lips towards Xiao Yin, whose face was looking very unpleasant, his gaze piercing with a trace of sharpness, “Yu’er is right, she never stopped me from taking concubines. It’s I who do not wish to have relations with other women. Xiao Yin, after all you’ve done, do you think I would let you off?”

If the Xiao Yin grandfather-grandson duo did not die, he would remain vexed. To relieve the dissatisfaction in his heart, these two people could only be sent to their deaths.

At this moment, Xiao Yin was so enraged that he couldn’t speak. Every time he thought of his daughter’s death, his hatred for Xiao Tianyu and his wife became uncontrollable. Even if the Young Master didn’t want to damn the Young Madam, did that mean his daughter’s life should be disregarded?

His daughter had been driven to death, yet he still refused to take her as a concubine, even if only out of consideration for his status as a senior member of the Xiao Family.

If Xiao Tianyu were to hear such words from Xiao Yin, he would surely find them laughable.

Could it be that he must accept every woman in the world who threatens him with her life? A woman who does not cherish her own life, only wanting to use such tactics to force him, why should he treat her well?

In his life, what he hated most was threats!

Mu Ruyue, looking at the loving bond between Xiao Tianyu and his wife, felt quite heartened. Even though the strong are revered on this continent and men hold a higher status than women–where men having three wives and four concubines is normal, and women are thus labeled as wanton–it’s clear that the genders are still unequal in the Divine Martial Continent.

However, Xiao Tianyu’s unwavering dedication to Madam Sheng Yue was truly touching. On the continent, the number of men willing to stick with one woman for a lifetime had become few.

Unintentionally, the handsome, god-like visage of Ye Wuchen flashed before Mu Ruyue’s eyes.

She wondered where that man was now…

“Father, Mother, allow me to handle the matters that follow,” said Mu Ruyue with a subtle smile curving her lips, her fingers gently stroking the head of the small creature in her arms, “Yan Jin, that old man has shown disrespect towards my parents. How should he be dealt with?”

Suddenly, Yan Jin lifted its small head, its profound eyes landing on Xiao Yin. Those black orbs held a domineering aura that looked down upon all living beings…
