As time passed, the remaining spiritual energy was all absorbed by Su Han.

Meanwhile, one by one, the low-grade spirit stones turned into hard rocks in his hands, their spiritual energy merging into his meridians.

Large amounts of impurities diffused from Su Han’s body, forming a layer of black grime. It covered not just his body but even his face and forehead, as if trying to encase him completely.

After five days, a total of twenty low-grade spirit stones were completely squandered by Su Han.

A single low-grade spirit stone was equivalent to one million gold coins. In other words, during these five days, Su Han had squandered a staggering twenty million gold coins!

This vast sum of gold coins, let alone ordinary people, could sustain a family like the Xiao Family for decades.

…

On this day, Su Han walked out of his room.

Just as Hu Feng was about to knock on the door, he saw Su Han and quickly said, “Young Master Han, someone has come to the Xiao Family.”

“Liang Shaohui, right?” Su Han said.

“Young Master Han is truly prescient,” Hu Feng nodded.

Su Han revealed a sneer, “It’s not that I’m prescient, but Liang Shaohui’s thoughts, as a wastrel, are all too easy to guess. I thought he would have come earlier. The fact that he delayed this long is quite an achievement for him!”

…

Xiao Family, the council hall.

“Young Master Liang gracing us with his presence truly brings honor to the Xiao Family!”

Xiao Hengshan and many guest elders were present while Liang Shaohui sat in the foremost seat below, his face filled with arrogance and contempt.

Behind him, Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui were still following him, seemingly elevated by Liang Shaohui’s high status, their faces brimming with pride.

Xiao Yuhui looked at the two men and pursed her lips, “Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui, you two are his…?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Attendants.”

Su Mingxuan immediately spoke as if being Liang Shaohui’s attendant was a great honor.

“You are also members of the Su Family, especially Su Mingxuan, I heard your father has become the family head, right? By all accounts, you ought to be the current foremost young master of the Su Family. How did you become somebody else’s attendant?” Xiao Yuhui asked again.

She really looked down on these two. Although she didn’t have any good feelings for Su Han, she had to admit, compared with Su Han, these two were vastly inferior.

“Yuhui!” Xiao Hengshan glared at Xiao Yuhui, signaling her not to speak further.

“It is our honor to become attendants for Young Master Liang.”

Su Mingxuan glanced at Liang Shaohui, conveying a flattering intention.

“Young Master Liang is of extraordinary talent and character, eager to befriend the likes of us. But how can we be worthy of being friends with Young Master Liang? So, becoming an attendant is the next best thing.”

“He calls that extraordinary talent?”

Xiao Yuhui inwardly shook her head. Liang Shaohui had only developed five dragon veins and was even older than Su Mingxuan. Such talent was actually a bit less than both Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui, and he was talking about being extraordinary?

“Mingxuan and Minghui are both decent, worth befriending.”

Liang Shaohui also gave the two men a step down, but the disdain on his face was not hidden at all. Anyone with clear eyes could see that he was just paying lip service, not taking the two seriously at all.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

In reality, that was indeed the case. In Liang Shaohui’s view, the progeny of some small county families were not even fit to carry his shoes. Making them attendants was merely due to their familiarity with Yuanshan County.

“Thank you, Young Master Liang.”

Hearing Liang Shaohui speak so, Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui were startled with delight and quickly offered their thanks.

Their behavior had everyone present silently shaking their heads.

Even though they were all from the Su Family, why was the difference so great?

“May I know the reason Young Master Liang visits the Xiao Family this time?” Xiao Hengshan asked.

Young Master Liang glanced at Xiao Yuhui, a flicker of light passing through his eyes, and chuckled, “I presume this lady is the celebrated Second Miss of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yuran?”

Su Mingxuan and his companion immediately showed embarrassment, quickly whispering, “Young Master Liang, she is not Xiao Yuran but her sister, the First Miss of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yuhui.”

“Damn, why didn’t you say so earlier?” Liang Shaohui cursed angrily.

“This… We wanted to say it sooner, but we didn’t have the chance.” Both lowered their heads.

“So it’s the First Miss of the Xiao Family, my apologies, my apologies.”

Liang Shaohui’s smile was very insincere. However, his family had someone serving as an Elder in Cold Cloud Sect, and it was naturally known to him that Xiao Yuhui had become an Elder of Inner Sect of Cold Cloud Sect.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

This was a status he found somewhat intimidating.

“Is Young Master Liang here to look for Yuran?” Xiao Hengshan frowned slightly.

“Yes.”

Liang Shaohui stood up, laughing heartily, “I’ve heard that the Second Miss of the Xiao Family is beautiful as a celestial, capable of bringing a nation to its knees. I felt an affinity upon hearing of her, and I’ve come here intending to ask for her hand in marriage.”

As he spoke, Liang Shaohui took out a silver card and placed it on the table, adding, “There are five hundred thousand gold coins in this silver card, as a betrothal gift for this marriage proposal. What does Patriarch Xiao think?”

“Marriage proposal? Betrothal gift?”

Everyone was stunned.

Nobody expected Liang Shaohui’s sudden move, especially since he hadn’t even met Xiao Yuran and was already talking about a marriage proposal.

“Who told you my sister is good-looking?” Xiao Yuhui suddenly asked.

“Them.” Liang Shaohui pointed to Su Mingxuan and his companion.

Their faces changed, cursing inwardly. They had been elevating themselves just a moment ago; now, their own words had betrayed them.

“Them?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Xiao Yuhui glanced at the two men, a hint of coldness in her eyes.

“You thought too highly. My sister is not pretty; in fact, rumors have spread that she’s extremely ugly, which you must be aware of,” Xiao Yuhui said to Liang Shaohui.

Liang Shaohui chuckled, “I’ve also heard that rumor. But that’s just gossip. They say the Second Miss of the Xiao Family makes fish sink and birds alight with her extraordinary beauty. Those who call her ugly are simply talking nonsense.”

“Even if my sister isn’t ugly, she’s not yet of age to talk about marriage, so let’s just forget about this marriage proposal,” Xiao Yuhui said.

At that moment, she was the only one with the authority to speak.

In Liang Shaohui’s heart, probably only she mattered. After all, she was an Elder of Inner Hall of Cold Cloud Sect. As for Xiao Hengshan, even though he was the Head of the Xiao Family, Liang Shaohui didn’t really care.

“Do you find the betrothal gift insufficient?”

Liang Shaohui revealed a mocking smile, then took out another silver card: “There are also five hundred thousand gold coins in here. Together with the other one, that makes a total of one million. Is that enough?”

Xiao Yuhui’s brow furrowed, “It’s not a matter of how much money there is. Please take your silver card back; the Xiao Family does not lack money.”

Just as Liang Shaohui was about to speak, he saw two people walking into the hall from outside.

One of them was Su Han, and the other was Xiao Yuran, whom Su Han had encountered on the way here.

“So beautiful!”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Such a rare pure and gentle temperament, to wantonly ravage…”

Upon seeing Xiao Yuran, Liang Shaohui was taken aback, his sharp eyes bursting with an unprecedented glow.
