Shang Xia had been thinking about something before. Even when Shang Dong provoked him, he seemed quite absent-minded.
It wasn't until Shang Bei and Shang Dong joined forces and he knocked away the weapons in their hands that Shang Xia suddenly realized that these brothers and sisters were originally planning to use themselves to establish their authority.
Although Shang Xia had no idea what had happened to the merchant in the past twenty years, several elders in the family seemed to be very secretive about it and had been unwilling to tell him. As time went by, Shang Xia himself did not bother to ask.
But since Shang Xia can be remembered, I have never seen or heard Shang Jian's name in the family, and I don't even know that I have a living second uncle of the same clan and clan.
Not just him, any of the younger generations of the family who are of similar age to him probably don't know that there is such a number one person in the merchant's direct lineage.
Because of this, when Shang Jian returned to the family, perhaps the younger clan members were alienated from him, but he himself had a sense of belonging to the merchant, and some older clan members also recognized him.
However, this sense of belonging and identity will not exist in his wife and daughter.
Whether it is his wife and daughter towards the merchant, or the merchant and Shang Xia towards them, there is alienation and estrangement between them.
However, there is something different here.
Although members of the Shang family, including Shang Xia, knew that they must be part of the merchants by blood, they were not in a hurry to identify with them because of alienation and isolation.
But Xu Huizhu and her children are different. As casual cultivators for a long time, they sincerely yearn to become members of a big family similar to aristocratic families, and they are eager to integrate into it.
But the little self-esteem and pride that I insisted on in my heart did not want to be looked down upon by others because I was too eager, so I adopted a more extreme method - establishing authority!
However, the final result is that regardless of whether the method they chose is correct or not, at least they chose the wrong target to establish their power!
Although the brothers Shang Bei and Shang Dong were both second-level warriors, and as twins they even had a unique set of combined attack methods, it was a pity that in front of Shang Xia, they were completely defeated without even a chance to take action.
Seeing that her carefully prepared methods were so easily cracked, Xu Huizhu finally couldn't help but take action under the influence of the dual emotions of worrying that her children would suffer a loss and becoming angry.
The moment Xu Huizhu's long sword was unsheathed, Shang Xia finally remembered why this sword looked familiar, because this sword should be a pair with the sheathed long sword in the hands of his second uncle Shang Jian, but the sword body looked Slightly shorter.
The moment the sword was unsheathed, Shang Xia felt that a sharp aura had locked it. No matter where he dodge, he could not avoid the opponent's sword.
The nominal second uncle in front of her has at least completed the second sublimation of martial arts will and reached the second level of martial arts realm.
Despite this, Shang Xia still didn't take it to heart.
This is not the first time that Shang Xia has fought with warriors at the second level of Wuyijing, and more than one of them has died in his hands.
And because he had been immersed in swordsmanship for a long time in the Liangyi Realm, Shang Xia had already noticed that Xu Huizhu's sword power, although powerful, actually had huge flaws the moment she took action.
But now Shang Xia is hesitating whether to take action or whether to teach the other party a lesson.
No matter what, the person in front of me is nominally my elder.
When Shang Bei and Shang Dong took action before, Shang Xia naturally had no scruples, after all, they were of equal seniority.
This is Shang Xia. When facing the attack of a third-level warrior, he actually still has time to think about other things.
Just when Shang Xia was about to summon the Bixi Sword, his eyes suddenly flashed, and the Jinyun box he had just opened in his sleeves was closed again.
"stop!"
A loud shout came, and a cold light fell from the sky, directly suppressing Xu Huizhu's sword light in the middle.
"Old Shang, your son and daughter are being bullied, and you want to stop me?"
Xu Huizhu shouted at Shang Jian with red eyes.
With that said, Xu Huizhu's sword light was about to break free from Shang Jian's suppression.
"That's enough! Isn't it shameful enough to bully the small?"
Shang Jian's low tone contained anger, and then he used stronger force to suppress Xu Huizhu's sword power, and even directly annihilated her sword light.
After all, they had been husband and wife for many years, and the tacit understanding between them made Xu Huizhu realize something and calm down. Then she glared at her husband fiercely, turned around, called Shang Bei and Shang Dong, and left the martial arts arena.
From beginning to end, Shang Xia remained calm and watched what happened.
After watching his wife and children leave, Shang Jian slowly turned around and looked at Shang Xia, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak.
Shang Xia was too lazy to listen to the other party's explanation, and he didn't want to see others being embarrassed. Seeing that the matter was understood, he just nodded to Shang Jian, and then turned and left the martial arts arena.
Shang Jian watched Shang Xia leave. He opened his mouth several times as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he remained silent.
"This child has no knowledge of what happened back then, and he doesn't seem to care about these past events, but there is no doubt that to a certain extent, this child's attitude often represents, and can even be said to determine, a large part of The people of the Shang clan are disloyal."
Shang Ke didn't know when he appeared beside Shang Jian and spoke to him in a calm tone.
After a moment of silence, Shang Jian said in a deep voice: "I understand!"
Unexpectedly, Shang Ke shook his head and said: "You may not understand! You are a wanderer who has left the merchant for twenty years, but the merchant is not the merchant who has been waiting for your return for twenty years. Your third uncle's concession, To you, it is the premise and reason for your return, but in my opinion, it only gives you a step to return to the family. But what will it look like to other Shang clan members? For the sake of the entire family, an elder has to treat an unruly person. Tolerance of a sensible junior? You should really think about it now! Don’t you still understand who was right and who was wrong about what happened twenty years ago? "
After Shang Ke finished speaking, he left alone. Only Shang Jian remained motionless on the martial arts field. I don't know what he had been thinking in his heart.
To be honest, Shang Xia's current mood is quite dull.
Everything that just happened on the martial arts field seemed more like a farce to Shang Xia.
Although this farce tried its best to involve him, Shang Xia always observed what happened with a bird's eye view.
The provocations of Xu Huizhu, mother and son, could not even arouse Shang Xia's angry mood.
"Is this a kind of mental sublimation?"
Since Shang Xia advanced to the Great Perfection of Liangyi Realm and realized the realm of "empty mind", he found that he was more and more immersed in this state.
The fifth uncle once told him that "an ethereal state of mind" would help him condense his martial arts will as he advanced.
Shang Xia had just returned to his small courtyard and was about to start drawing a second-level martial talisman when he heard a knock on the door outside the small courtyard.
"Brother Six, Brother Six? I am Shang Fu, please open the door!"
