Kapitel 82: Meet His Grandpa-Master
The guests who were already present at the place turned to Tang Huang, who casually walked in, but some of them were surprised by his presence. After all, he had not appeared in public for seven years, so his return surprised them, and many of them were wondering about him, including Yi An.
'Why did he suddenly return? Does his return have anything to do with all the strange events?' Yi An inwardly wondered as she sent a message to her husband to inform him of Tang Huang's return to their city.
Tang Huang also looked at Yi An with raised eyebrows, but he ignored her and the other guests, and he walked over to Mu Lin as he laughed. "Haha! Old Lin! I'm sorry, I haven't attended your birthday banquet for the past few years, but I'm here now."
"It seems that your efforts in the past seven years have been fruitless, huh?" Mu Lin said as he hugged his old friend for a moment, but his words made Tang Huang let out a heavy sigh. "Where's that woman? I heard that she's back with you, so you two should come together, right?"
"Lingyan is out meeting someone, but she will be here soon." Tang Huang then asked him. "Did Yuan'er tell you about our return? And where is that kid now?"
Mu Lin certainly knew the person he was referring to, but he did not answer his question straight away, and he said a few things to the guests before taking Tang Huang to another room, especially since there was still some time before the banquet started. However, he also called his daughter to go to the main building to represent her in welcoming the other guests who would be arriving soon, so Mu Qingge immediately left Tang Xiao and her daughter alone.

"Why did you bring me here?"
Instead, Mu Lin asked Tang Huang back. "Did you know about what happened to your grandson in prison?"
"I know; Yuan'er told me everything." Tang Huang replied with a heavy sigh. "I always wanted to teach Xiao'er and Yin'er to become cultivators, but their parents were against my wishes, and they even made me promise to let them live a normal life."
"Unfortunately, their decision made their children suffer for seven years, and all those events would never have happened if they were cultivators." Mu Lin then patted Tang Huang's shoulder. "However, everything is in the past now, and they have become cultivators. Besides, Xiao'er was smarter and more talented than you, and he was even able to break through to middle beginner level in just a week."
"Haha." Tang Huang laughed at that. "If Xiao'er wasn't smart and talented, do you think he would be able to withstand Lingyan's harsh upbringing? He's been training under her since he was five years old, remember?"
"That's true." Mu Lin nodded in agreement with that. "Lingyan is a fighting maniac, and her character is too violent. However, Xiao'er managed to get through twelve harsh years under her tutelage, and he never even complained during that time. Anyway, your grandson is in the back building with Yan'er now, but I want to tell you about a few things before you meet him."
"Tell me."
"Xiao'er is a dual cultivator, and he already has two wives, but I don't know their identities yet." Tang Huang looked nonchalant about that, and he didn't mind Tang Xiao's decision to become a dual cultivator, but he felt curious about the identities of his two wives because Tang Yuan didn't tell him anything. "Besides, he's attracted to Qingge, and she's already given him the green light to approach her for Yan'er's sake, especially since she likes him so much. Since my daughter agrees and he is your grandson, I will approve their relationship if he can conquer her heart."
"Are you serious about that?" Mu Lin nodded to him, and Tian Huang laughed heartily. "Hahaha! This is truly unexpected but exciting news! In the past, we both wanted our children to get married, but their relationship never happened. However, I didn't expect that Xiao'er would be interested in Qingge, and our families will become one if they become husband and wife in the future. Hehe, I can't wait to hear her address me as her grandfather-in-law, so I hope he can conquer her heart as soon as possible."
"Grandpa-in-law, your ass!" Mu Lin furiously shouted at him. "Do you also want me to address you as my father, Old Tang?"
"Hahaha!" Tang Huang laughed even wider before he moved towards the window and opened it. "You can welcome your guests again, and I will go see Xiao'er now."
Mu Lin couldn't help but sigh at Tang Huang's behavior, but he knew that his old friend missed Tang Xiao very much, so he let him be and left the room.

"Big Brother, have you thought of ways to get my mother's heart?" Mu Yan asked as he slowly shook Tang Xiao's arm.
"Why are you so eager for your mother to get married?" Tang Xiao asked with an amused smile, especially since Mu Yan was much more impatient than him. "Moreover, we just met today, so we still have to explore our relationship, and it can't be done in a hurry."
Mu Yan pouted her lips and said to him. "You have two wives now, and you will have more women later because you are a dual cultivator. That's why I hope you can conquer my mother soon, as I don't want her to become your umpteenth wife."
"Are you really okay with your mother becoming my wife?"
"En." Mu Yan nodded to him. "I don't know why, but I feel that you are a good man, and I feel comfortable being by your side, so I want you to be her husband."
Tang Xiao inwardly sighed after hearing that, as he himself still couldn't understand the reason behind the feeling of closeness between them. "All right, I will try hard to conquer your mother, and—guah!"
"Big brother!" Mu Yan shouted as Tang Xiao almost fell forward, but he managed to stabilize himself, and they immediately looked back.
Tang Xiao was stunned for a moment before he shouted at Tang Huang. "Damn you, old man! Do you want to kill me by hitting me so hard?"
"Haha! How could you possibly die just like that, you damn grandson?" Tang Huang responded with a laugh, and he set up a soundproof barrier around them.
Mu Yan, who was hugging Tang Xiao's arm, sharply glared at Tang Huang. She wore an angry look while shouting at him. "Grandpa Huang! I will be angry with you if you dare to hit Big Brother again! I will also ignore you forever!"
Tang Huan was certainly not afraid of Mu Yan's threat, especially since he already knew her too well, and he then pinched her cheeks. "Hehe, you dare threaten me, little Yanyan?"
"Ahh! Let go of my cheeks, Grandpa Huang!" Mu Yan shouted as she repeatedly punched Tang Huang's hand, but her punches were just like mosquito bites to him. "Ahh! Big Brother! Please take this evil grandpa away from me!"
"Hahaha!" Tang Xiao actually laughed when he heard Mu Yan call his grandfather like that. "All right, stop it, old man."
"Humph! Evil grandpa! I hate you!" Mu Yan shouted as she ran away after Tang Huang let go of her, causing both men to laugh amusedly at her antics.
Afterwards, the two men sat next to each other on a long chair, but Tang Huang looked at his grandson guiltily, and he found it difficult to find the right words to speak to him. "Xiao'er, I-"
"You don't need to feel guilty towards us, you know?" Tang Xiao said to Tang Huang as he shook his head. "Big Sis Yin and I have never blamed you for not teaching us to be cultivators, especially since our parents are just ordinary people, so it's natural that they don't want us to be involved in such a cruel world. We also didn't blame you because you didn't visit us for the last seven years, as we knew that you were eager to take revenge on them."
Tang Huang looked at his grandson in awe, and he felt like he barely knew his current character. In his opinion, Tang Xiao looked more mature than seven years ago, but he had also become quite cruel, especially since he had killed several people in a short time. 'Perhaps his character became like this because he was imprisoned for so long.'
Tang Xiao then stood up and looked up at the night sky. "Even though I had to suffer for several years, I am also grateful for my suffering, which made me less naive, and I'm more aware of the cruelty of this world. Moreover, all of those events were a blessing in disguise for me and Big Sis, and we've become cultivators now, so we can work together to take revenge on them from now on."
Tang Huang sighed softly at his grandson's words, but he was also relieved by the current Tang Xiao, even though he had to suffer for years to reach this point. "What are you going to do next? The Ouyang family is much stronger than you think, and I can't fight them either, so you shouldn't be rash in attacking them."
"Aunt Yuan has already told me everything, especially about Long Yin, so I naturally won't attack them openly, or it will be detrimental to us." Tang Xiao then turned to face his grandfather and spoke with a confident smile. "It's true that I can't fight him now, but that doesn't mean I won't be able to fight him in the future, right? Actually, Big Sis and I can destroy them easily, Old Man. It's just that we want to make their lives difficult, and I want them to pay back hundreds, if not thousands, of folds for what they have done to us in the past."
Tang Huang raised his eyebrows after hearing that, and he couldn't understand how his grandson could be so confident to destroy the Ouyang family, but he was sure that Tang Xiao wasn't bragging judging from his expression.
"Hehe." Tang Xiao chuckled at his grandfather's expression, and he raised both his hands with clenched fists towards the sky. "Grandpa! I am neither a hero nor a villain; I am me. I will do everything to protect those who are closest to me, and I will avenge those who have harmed us. Even if I have to become a demon, I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goal."
However, Tantai Lingyan suddenly appeared in front of Tang Xiao, and she hugged his head tightly to her chest. "Nice words, Kid! I haven't seen you for a while, but you've become much different compared to the person you used to be."
"Damn! Let me go; your boobs are suffocating me, Master!" Tang Xiao grumbled in annoyance as he tried to free himself from Tantai Lingyan's embrace.
"Haha." Tantai Lingyan laughed softly as she released Tang Xiao from her embrace, and she looked at him with a satisfied smile.
"Big boobs, but no brains."
Upon hearing that, Tantai Lingyan pinched both Tang Xiao's cheeks, and she teased him in a flirtatious tone. "Oh? I remember that you used to like my boobs so much, and you often peeked at them when you slept with me, but now you're saying that I'm big boobs but no brains, huh?"
Tang Xiao's face flushed red upon hearing her words, but he didn't deny that he liked Tantai Lingyan's breasts when he was little, especially since their size was too big. "Anyway, I didn't expect you guys to be so strong; both of you have even reached the peak emperor realm, and I'm really nothing compared to you two."
