Chapter 492
A cold smile appeared on Valley Master Nie's face when he heard this. "Xiao Qiang, I've already answered you about this matter several days ago. Do I still need to repeat myself?"
An almost imperceptible trace of anger flashed through Qiang Sheng's eyes, but his expression remained warm and genial. He said respectfully, "Father-in-law, please understand. This son-in-law of mine isn't making things difficult for you. Moreover, Qiang Sheng isn't an outsider. He's a nephew I watched grow up. He can't practice martial arts, but he's a bit smart. If you don't help him, this child's future will be bleak."
Valley Master Nie coldly snorted. "The Whale Gang is a famous gang in the jianghu. Your nephew only needs to find some work in the gang. Won't this be easily solved?
Why go so far for what's near? "
When Yue Zhonglin heard this, he couldn't help but feel surprised. His father-in-law had always been kind and amiable. Whenever there was a problem with the Whale Gang, he would grant it. He wasn't stingy at all. Although Rejuvenation Valley's attitude towards the Whale Gang wasn't as good as Deer Cry Sect's, they were all ordinary son-in-laws. Presumably, he wouldn't be stingy with Qiang Sheng. What did Qiang Sheng want his father-in-law to do for him to refuse again and again?
Just as he was about to speak, Nie Qianrong tugged on his sleeve. When Yue Zhonglin looked over, he saw his wife shaking her head slightly.
Qiang Sheng glanced at Nie Qianxiu out of the corner of his eye, but didn't say anything else. Nie Qianxiu felt wronged. "Father, Qiang Sheng is also my nephew. He treats me with respect every day. He's a good person. Moreover, before I returned home, I already promised father-in-law that I would complete this matter for him. Look at the gifts I brought back. They're all gifts from the Whale Gang. Just give me some face and agree."
Valley Master Nie didn't hesitate. He shook his head and said, "If it were anything else, I would have agreed long ago. Even if you married into the Whale Gang, you're still my daughter. How could I not give you face?
However, this matter is truly important. I can't ignore it. "
After that, he took a sip of tea and said, "When you returned late that night, you told me about this matter early in the morning. At that time, I didn't immediately refuse. I only thought about it again and again. This involves the reputation of our Rejuvenation Valley, so I didn't dare to make a decision on my own."
Seeing this, Nie Qianxiu turned her head to look at Mu Qingxuan and Fei He. However, the two of them had remained silent ever since they entered the Rejuvenation Hall. They were completely focused on tasting the tea, as if they had never tasted such a wonderful tea before. Nie Qianrong had no choice but to turn her head to look at Nie Qianyu.
Nie Qianyu was annoyed that she had scolded Zhang Xiaohua just now. She pouted and looked impatient. She did not look at her and just used her finger to draw something in the air. Nie Qianxiu thought that she was fooling around and was extremely angry. If Zhang Xiaohua was here, she would be able to see that Nie Qianyu was drawing the Five Elements Dayan Formation.
The entire Rejuvenation Hall immediately fell into an awkward silence.
Yue Zhonglin really couldn't take it anymore. After all, in this hall, only he and Qiang Sheng had the role of son-in-law. If he didn't say anything at this time, he would lose out in terms of morality. As a result, he coughed and said, "That, father-in-law, although the Whale Gang is a large sect, it is still the place where Qiang Sheng grew up. If he only makes a living in one place, it is inevitable that he will have the mindset of a frog in a well. If he comes to Rejuvenation Valley, it can be considered as making up for his shortcomings and learning new skills. I feel that this is a good thing. Moreover, Qiang Sheng also came to our Deer Cry Sect with second sister two years ago.
Valley Master Nie looked at his son-in-law and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Zhonglin, do you think that if Qiang Sheng came to my Rejuvenation Valley, the Whale Gang would give me a carriage full of gifts?
Do you think I'll reject you again and again? "
Yue Zhonglin was speechless. Nie Qianrong smiled and said, "Father, please don't blame Zhonglin. He has good intentions and wants to help second sister. It's just that he doesn't know what's going on. However, your daughter is also confused."
Valley Master Nie sighed. "You just came back this afternoon. Naturally, you don't know the reason. Qianxiu and Qiang Sheng are begging me for the same thing you begged me for six years ago."
As soon as he finished speaking, Nie Qianrong and Yue Zhonglin's expressions changed slightly. They looked at each other and exchanged glances. They didn't say anything else.
Valley Master Nie continued, "If Qiang Sheng only came to my Rejuvenation Valley, I wouldn't have anything to say. I couldn't ask for anything more. However, just like Zhonglin's cousin, he wants to pass down the Incense Cult and try his luck. Do you think it's easy to be an alchemy boy?
Not to mention that I haven't seen a single alchemy boy come back after so many years. If Qiang Sheng goes, who knows when he'll be able to come back … "
Before he finished speaking, Qiang Sheng said, "Father-in-law, please don't worry about this. I already explained the situation to my father and brothers before coming here. They all feel that if he goes to the Incense Cult, there will naturally be other opportunities. It doesn't matter if he doesn't come back. If he can make a name for himself, he will be able to bring honor to his ancestors and raise the prestige of the Whale Gang."
Valley Master Nie smiled bitterly. "Not a single one of the alchemy boys sent by our Rejuvenation Valley has ever come back. Although we hear that they are doing very well in the Incense Cult, we don't see any living people. It's inevitable that there will be something wrong."
Nie Qianxiu was still unwilling. "Father, you don't need to worry. We only agreed to send him to the Incense Cult. As for his fate, whether he comes back or not, it's not something we can control."
Valley Master Nie scolded, "Qianxiu, you're being muddle-headed. Your husband's family's matters are our Rejuvenation Valley's matters. Qiang Sheng is also our relative. This matter is clearly dangerous, and it's not like there are no other ways. Why do you insist on walking down this single-plank bridge?"
"Father, your daughter has never asked you for anything in all these years. This is your daughter's request. You should just agree."
Valley Master Nie still shook his head. "There's one more thing. The Incense Cult has always maintained close ties with Rejuvenation Valley. They even strongly support our Rejuvenation Valley in the pugilistic world. However, we treat people sincerely. Every time they come to Rejuvenation Valley to pick people, we receive them with sincerity. We let them choose from the alchemy boys that we focus on nurturing.
You have to know that the Incense Cult has made it clear that they only want alchemy boys trained by our Rejuvenation Valley. If I let Qiang Sheng go forward, wouldn't it be cheating? "
Hearing this, Qiang Sheng and Nie Qianxiu's faces showed a trace of anger. However, they still endured and did not flare up. They only softly pleaded, "Father, although Qiang Sheng is not our alchemy boy, he is still Qiang Sheng's nephew. We know him better than our alchemy boys. Zhenzhen is not an outsider. What is there to be worried about?"
The word "outsider" was clearly enunciated.
Valley Master Nie shook his head. "If I could make an exception, I would have made an exception for Zhonglin's cousin a few years ago. Why wait until now?
You should think of another way. "
At this time, Nie Qianxiu could not bear it anymore. She stood up. "Father, it's not that I want to make things difficult for you. Since you want to take care of the alchemy boys, then don't include outsiders. You have to be fair. On one hand, you want to send an outsider to the Incense Cult as an alchemy boy. On the other hand, you keep denying the future of your own people. Do you think I don't have other thoughts?
When Valley Master Nie heard this, his face also showed anger. He frowned and looked at Yue Zhonglin.
Yue Zhonglin was shocked. He quickly said, "Father-in-law, although this son-in-law also came to welcome the people from the Incense Cult, I just returned to the valley this afternoon. It was at this Rejuvenation Hall that I saw second sister and second brother-in-law."
Nie Qianxiu sneered. "Father, there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. Since you want to send Ren Xiaoyao to the Incense Cult, then don't be afraid of others knowing."
Then, he glanced at Nie Qianyu, who was also surprised, and said, "I thought there was something wrong with Ren Xiaoyao that day. Even if he helped him when he saw injustice, why didn't he leave when the matter was over?
He just stayed in my Rejuvenation Valley and kept saying that he didn't need any repayment from us. I thought he was very noble. Hehe, it turns out that he didn't care about the foundation of my Rejuvenation Valley at all. He had already made his plan. He turned out to be a super sect in Jianghu, the Incense Cult.
Maybe he had already calculated this plan when he saved Little Yu. Hmm, maybe he was even sent by the enemy. Everything had already been arranged. "
Nie Qianyu said angrily, "You ~ second sister, how can you slander big brother Ren like this?
He didn't even know what Rejuvenation Valley was that day! "
Nie Qianxiu sneered. "This is even more nonsense. Although my Rejuvenation Valley is not as famous as the Incense Cult in Jianghu, there must be a problem if a person in Jianghu hasn't even heard of Rejuvenation Valley. Little Yu, don't be blinded by others. Others have sold Rejuvenation Valley and you still help them count the money!"
"Shut up!"
Valley Master Nie was also furious. "I know what kind of person Ren Shaoxia is. He has been in our Rejuvenation Valley for several months. If he has any bad conduct or intentions, how can we not see it?
Moreover, your eldest senior brother and second senior brother have also been in contact with him. They have all praised him. Do you think we are all blind? "
Fei He and Mu Qingxuan also heard that Zhang Xiaohua wanted to go to the Incense Cult for the first time. They were very surprised. However, when they heard their master mention it, they quickly nodded. "Yes, this Ren Shaoxia is indeed a magnanimous person. He is not what you think."
Nie Qianxiu did not back down. "You may know a person's face but not his heart. I have only seen him once. However, from the fact that he wants to go to the Incense Cult, I know that his purpose in saving Little Yu is not simple.
Moreover, father, no matter what, Ren Xiaoyao is an outsider. He has not really married our family's Little Yu. Since you can let him pretend to be an alchemy boy and enter the Incense Cult, why can't you help him and let him have a good future in the Incense Cult? "
Valley Master Nie sighed. "Ai, this is clearly different."
Nie Qianxiu sneered again. "What's the difference? He just wants to hug the Incense Cult's thigh and make plans for his future."
Seeing that Valley Master Nie was still shaking his head, Nie Qianxiu gritted her teeth. "If father doesn't agree, then no one will go. If you let that person go to the Incense Cult, then don't blame your daughter …"
