Chapter 1435 Though living in the martial world, my mother dislikes fighting and killing
Before it even got dark that day, Shen Yue was informed by her subordinates that Shen Linsu's grave had been dug up and the body had disappeared.
"Is that skill really that powerful?" she asked. "Many years later, will a very skilled master suddenly appear in the martial arts world?"
Azhen said, "It might not actually be intact, and practicing it might even do harm."
That divine skill was made of animal hide. It must have been well preserved to have been hidden for so long. However, after it was swallowed, its contents were likely damaged.
Shen Yue didn't really care, but after hearing what Azhen said, she felt that this was a good thing.
"Sister Zhen'er, won't you stay a few more days?" Shen Yue asked, her voice filled with reluctance.
Azhen said, "I'll come see you again when I have time."
"Alright, I won't keep you any longer. I know it won't be easy for you and that Palace Master to develop your relationship in someone else's place. I understand. I'll wait to drink your wedding wine."
Azhen smiled and didn't say anything more, letting Shen Yue tease her.
“Some time ago, I had a very special dream. Everything else was blurry, but I remembered my own things very clearly…” Shen Yue finally told Azhen about it.
After hearing this, Azhen understood what was going on; it must have been Shen Yue's past life.
Having this dream is good, as it can ease Shen Yue's psychological burden. After all, Shen Linsu is her biological father, and before the matter was exposed, the father and daughter seemed to get along quite well.
The next day, Azhen left Peach Blossom Manor, accompanied by Xu Shan, Chao Xianxue, and Su Yinlan.
Not long after leaving the manor, Su Yinlan told Chao Xianxue that she would return to Xingyue Palace to handle some matters.
“I remembered I have some things to take care of at home, so I’ll go back and deal with them first. Zhen’er, you should go out and explore the world by yourself,” Xu Shan said.
Azhen laughed out loud, but still nodded, and pulled Xu Shan aside, saying, "I think Mother is still not quite convinced. Father, you should be careful. You should know her temperament."
Xu Shan's expression turned serious: "Then I'll go back over there and hide for a while."
Azhen thought it was a good idea, and added, "Father, if you meet the right person, you should continue your relationship. Otherwise, you'll be all alone when you're out in the world."
Xu Shan was speechless. His daughter had really grown up and was no longer willing to accompany her father on his adventures.
"Young Master Chao, where are you going? I'm going to venture into the world," Azhen said.
Chao Xianxue's heart skipped a beat, but her mouth moved faster than her brain. She said, "Wherever you go, I will go."
Azhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled at him, jumped onto the horse, and rode away.
"Then let's follow."
Chao Xianxue was initially a little disappointed, but upon hearing this, she quickly followed, her face beaming with joy.
A few days later, Azhen heard new rumors circulating in the martial arts world. At first, it was about Peach Blossom Manor, and later it was about many people fighting over Shen Linsu's corpse. She didn't bother to find out the details; it was quite unlucky.
Later, she heard that Yi Xiaolan really wanted to get back together with Xu Shan, and even went to the Xu family and the Yi family, but they came up empty-handed.
Yi Xiaolan originally thought that by staying there and waiting a little longer, Xu Shan would eventually see her determination. However, two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Xu Shan still shows no intention of returning to the Xu family.
She was the most capable of assessing value and consequences, and she understood that Xu Shan was determined to avoid her. If she continued to delay, she would really waste her whole life, so she had no choice but to return to the Yi family.
She was beautiful and a member of the Yi family. She had previously told people that she had been framed during her relationship with Shen Linsu.
With the help of the Yi family, she remarried.
This time, however, she did not bring Shen Yu or Chu Yanzhi with her.
Shen Yu wasn't particularly liked by the Yi family, but she was relatively well-liked by Chu Yanzhi, perhaps based on their past impressions. However, Chu Yanzhi later repeatedly clashed with the Yi family because of Shen Yu, and consequently, he became less popular as well.
Later, for some unknown reason, Chu Yanzhi took Shen Yu and left the Yi family. The first person he went to find was Yi Xiaolan.
However, the result was different from what he expected.
In his memory, his teacher's wife, who was once gentle, kind, and beautiful, seemed to have become a different person. Even though he didn't want to believe it, he could still clearly see the impatience and disgust in her eyes.
They naturally couldn't stay at Yi Xiaolan's new home; instead, they witnessed her current predicament. No matter how beautiful she was, she was gradually aging. Her once-favored husband had brought in several concubines, and she spent her days flirting with them. When she was young and beautiful, men might have been attracted to her charms, but once her looks faded and she had no other redeeming qualities, her words and actions became affected and unappealing.
However, this time she lacked the courage to propose a divorce and could only remain in this strife-filled mansion, nervously guarding her position.
Many nights, she was filled with regret, wondering why she had divorced Xu Shan in the first place.
If they hadn't divorced, she would never have been trapped in this mansion, nor would she have had to fight with those wretches. She had tried to bring these things up with her family, but now they were getting impatient with her.
She really regretted it.
If she could turn back time, she would never choose to divorce Xu Shan.
Only now does she realize that Xu Shan was the best person for her.
She missed Xu Shan a little, longing for his past kindness and his boundless tolerance towards her.
One day, a concubine came to her, and surprisingly, she didn't make a scene. Instead, she said to her, "Madam, have you heard? The famous swordsman Xu from the martial arts world has gotten married."
"By the way, Madam, do you know about Forget-Worry Valley? So Master Xu is actually from Forget-Worry Valley."
Valley of Forgetfulness?
Is it that reclusive family that published all their privately held books?
"Madam, Master Xu is such a good man, with excellent character, martial arts skills, and a distinguished background. Why did you divorce him back then? Even Peach Blossom Manor can't compare to Forget-Worry Valley now, can it?"
"By the way, Miss Xu is now a highly skilled swordsmith, admired by countless people in the martial arts world. I heard you've never been very satisfied with this daughter. Madam, I don't know what to say. Why don't you want such a good husband and daughter, and instead come here to compete with us for this little piece of land?"
The concubine's words buzzed in Yi Xiaolan's ears, making her head spin.
But she thought to herself, yes, if she hadn't divorced Xu Shan and had treated her daughter better, she would be living a life of great success now.
"Oh, right, there's another piece of news. Chu Yanzhi seems to have some connection with Madam, right? Some time ago, he stumbled upon some martial arts figures settling a score. He insisted on intervening, and they broke his leg and slapped him dozens of times, knocking out his teeth. They were avenging a family member, and he went to stop them. It's really hilarious."
"Madam, don't you have a daughter? I haven't heard any news about her. Don't you care? What if your daughter becomes successful someday? You don't have any children now, what will you do in the future?"
The concubine's words were piercing to the heart.
In fact, after Xu Zhen's reputation grew better and better, she regretted it and tried to find Shen Yu. Just as the concubine thought, what if Shen Yu was also a promising person?
She did find Chu Yanzhi, but Chu Yanzhi said he didn't know where Shen Yu had gone. She scolded him, but Chu Yanzhi retorted that she had been doing nothing before, and the two parted on bad terms.
She couldn't understand how Chu Yanzhi, who had always been so well-behaved, had become like this.
“Madam, you don’t seem very bright,” the concubine continued, looking regretful. “If you hadn’t divorced Master Xu, the Palace Master would still be your son-in-law. You would be so prestigious.”
"Ahhh, stop talking, you bitch, stop talking!" Yi Xiaolan finally broke down, shouting like a madwoman. Her ferocious face startled the concubine, who patted her chest and ran away quickly.
At this moment, the Valley of Forgetfulness is filled with idyllic scenery, a place of ease and tranquility.
Azhen and Chao Xianxue sat under a flowering tree when Chao Xianxue suddenly asked, "Were you there in the secret chamber of the Star Moon Palace?"
Azhen tilted her head: "Guess?"
"You really have a knack for holding back your questions for so long."
Chao Xianxue: "I'm afraid that if I ask you, you'll be unhappy, and then I won't be able to get close to you anymore."
"Is getting married now a sure thing?"
“That’s not what I meant…” Chao Xianxue quickly explained.
A-Zhuang smiled and rested her chin on her hand: "What does that mean?"
"I think you should be fairly satisfied with me and won't be angry about this." After a long silence, Chao Xianxue said with a flushed face and honest eyes.
"I was just secretly watching you, I didn't do anything bad, I won't be angry even if you find out."
"So you came all this way just to see me?" Chao Xianxue's eyes lit up. So that's how it is!
