Chapter 1405 Though living in the martial world, my mother dislikes fighting and killing.
As the journey continued, people in the martial arts world discussed Shen Linsu and Yi Xiaolan's marriage while also talking about the news of the Golden Dragon Sword Sect's annihilation. They all sighed and deeply hated the person behind it.
At this moment, Chu Yanzhi, who was at the Yi family's residence, was somewhat sullen.
The Yi family was filled with joy; everyone was happy, even his master's wife had a smile on her face. Of course, he wanted his master's wife to be happy. But after his master's wife went to Peach Blossom Manor, it became very difficult for him to see her.
His master's wife is getting married to someone else. He is just his master's disciple. If he goes over and disturbs her, it will have a bad influence on his master's wife.
He will probably never see his master's wife again, because she never liked the excitement of the martial arts world.
While Yi Xiaolan was overjoyed, she finally noticed that something was wrong with Chu Yanzhi and stopped him to ask him questions.
"Yanzhi, why are you unhappy?" Yi Xiaolan asked, but in her heart she wondered, "Does Yanzhi not like Shen Linsu?"
She felt a little disappointed. That's understandable. Yanzhi was Xu Shan's disciple. No matter what, he was loyal to his master Xu Shan. It was normal for him not to like Shen Linsu.
But this time, she and Shen Linsu finally seized this opportunity. Now that the invitations have been sent out and the wedding date has been set, no matter what, she can't possibly miss out on Shen Linsu again.
"I'm just a little sad thinking about how hard it will be to see my master's wife in the future," Chu Yanzhi said. "When my master's wife was at the Yi family, I could still come to visit her often, but now that she's gone to Peach Blossom Manor, I won't be able to go to see her anymore."
Yi Xiaolan was stunned, and the slight depression in her heart was instantly swept away.
There's a reason she likes Yanzhi so much. This child is closer to her than her own daughter, and he's so sensible. Even when he's sad, he doesn't make a fuss. How could anyone not like him?
Unfortunately, Yanzhi is Xu Shan's disciple, not hers, so it might be difficult to bring him to Peach Blossom Manor.
“Yanzhi, you’re mistaken. Your master’s wife has gone to Peach Blossom Manor, but you can still come and find her. She’ll welcome you there. Even though I have no relation to your master anymore, I will still consider you my disciple.”
Yi Xiaolan reassured her, saying that this child was much more likable than her ungrateful daughter.
At least he remembered that she was good to him. If the other person hadn't been Xu Shan's disciple, she would have taken her to Peach Blossom Manor without hesitation.
“Yanzhi is so reluctant to part with your master’s wife, you can come along this time,” Shen Linsu suddenly appeared, his face full of gentleness. “You can also treat Peach Blossom Manor as your own home, don’t be shy.”
Chu Yanzhi, who was initially a little uneasy, felt reassured after Shen Linsu said so.
“Yes, I’m at Peach Blossom Manor too. Brother Yanzhi, why don’t you come with me this time? I’m quite bored by myself.” Shen Yue peeked out from behind Shen Linsu. “You don’t need to worry about martial arts training. My father is very skilled. If you don’t understand anything, just ask him.”
Shen Yue's appearance really did make Chu Yanzhi's heart flutter.
At Shen Yue's urging, Chu Yanzhi nodded in agreement. He had heard that his master had taken his junior sister to the martial world for a stroll and wouldn't be back for a while. He didn't want to trouble the Yi family to send him back to the Xu family, so he figured he might as well go with them to Peach Blossom Manor. His master's wife was there, and his sister Yue'er was there too.
The four then got along well, and Shen Linsu even gave Chu Yanzhi some pointers on martial arts, showing great care and attention.
Looking at this harmonious scene, Yi Xiaolan sighed inwardly, wishing she could keep Chu Yanzhi at Peach Blossom Manor.
However, Chu Yanzhi is Xu Shan's disciple, so the other party probably won't agree.
"Lan'er, is something bothering you?" Shen Linsu told Chu Yanzhi and Shen Yue to go practice on their own and returned to Yi Xiaolan's side, only to find her looking distressed.
Yi Xiaolan said, "I can't bear to part with this child. I can let him stay at the resort for a while, but I can't keep him here forever."
The child's heart was with her, and they got along well.
The more she thought about it, the more reluctant she became to part with it.
Shen Linsu frowned, then said, "Actually, if you really can't bear to part with him, you can let Yanzhi stay at Peach Blossom Manor, as long as you're happy. Now Yanzhi's martial arts are on track, and his future progress will depend more on his own efforts. If there's anything he doesn't understand about martial arts, I can give him pointers; if there's anything I don't know, he can go to Brother Xu." "Yanzhi is a very close friend of yours, and he's so reluctant to part with you. If you really separate, who knows what the consequences will be. Since Brother Xu is willing to let him stay at the Yi family to accompany you, it shows he respects both your and his feelings."
"Is this really possible?" Yi Xiaolan was genuinely tempted.
What she was most worried about was that Shen Linsu wouldn't like it. After all, she was the owner of Peach Blossom Manor, and it would be inappropriate for her to bring a child who wasn't her own, especially since Yanzhi's master was still around.
But Shen Linsu didn't care and was even happy to do so. After calming down, she wanted to take Chu Yanzhi with her.
Now the only thing to deal with is Xu Shan. She knows Xu Shan quite well, and as long as she uses the right method, taking Chu Yanzhi away won't be difficult.
"Let's discuss it with Xu Shan later. He recently took Zhen'er to the martial arts world to relax, and we probably won't see her for a while."
“Well, Brother Xu is a kind person and should be able to understand your thoughts,” Shen Linsu said. “Let’s take Yanzhi to Peach Blossom Manor first. Once Brother Xu finds out, he will naturally come looking for us. We can talk properly then.”
Neither Yi Xiaolan nor Shen Linsu expected that three days later, Xu Shan and Azhen would come to the Yi family.
Upon learning that the two had returned, Yi Xiaolan suddenly felt a little uneasy, after all, she and Xu Shan had not been divorced for long.
“I thought it would be inconvenient for Yanzhi to stay here since you’re getting married, so I came to pick him up,” Xu Shan said. After adjusting along the way, he has now accepted the fact that Yi Xiaolan is remarrying.
He even went to the shop to pick out a wedding gift for Yi Xiaolan.
"There will be too many people at the wedding banquet, so I won't go to avoid gossip," Xu Shan said.
Yi Xiaolan's feelings suddenly became complicated. Xu Shan was actually a pretty good person: "Thank you."
This time, she was unusually calm when facing Xu Shan, and there was none of her previous irritability.
“Xu Shan, there’s something I want to discuss with you,” Yi Xiaolan said. “I really like Yanzhi, and I want to take him with me to Peach Blossom Manor.”
After she finished speaking, Xu Shan was taken aback, completely not expecting Yi Xiaolan to make this decision.
There was no anger on his part, which shows that Yi Xiaolan really liked him as her disciple.
“This child and I get along very well. A few days ago, he was quite downcast because he thought I would never see him again after I went to Peach Blossom Manor,” Yi Xiaolan said. “I think it has something to do with his background. Before you took him as your disciple, wasn’t it right when he had just lost his mother, who was his only family? He’s more dependent on me, so that might be a connection. I’m afraid that not taking him with me will affect his growth, and I’m really worried about it. If there are any martial arts-related matters in the future, he can come to you. Your master-disciple relationship will definitely not change. I’m just too reluctant to part with him, and too worried about him.”
Xu Shan had mixed feelings. What about the two Zhen'er?
Zhen'er is still Yi Xiaolan's biological daughter, so why doesn't she feel any reluctance at all? Xu Shan didn't understand this, but she didn't say it, otherwise they would probably start arguing again later.
Zhen'er has already chosen him as her father, so there's no point in criticizing Yi Xiaolan anymore.
"What does Yanzhi think?" Xu Shan asked.
Would Yan Zhi, the disciple he had carefully nurtured, also be willing to follow Yi Xiaolan?
Recalling Yanzhi's dependence on Yi Xiaolan, Xu Shan felt a little lost. It seemed that Yanzhi was really closer to Yi Xiaolan, and respected him, his master, more.
Azhen wasn't interested in what Chu Yanzhi was thinking. When she saw Yi Xiaolan wanting to take Chu Yanzhi to Peach Blossom Manor, she readily agreed. She didn't even have to exert any effort; things just went this way—it was perfect. (End of Chapter)
