บท 225: Chapter 225, Preparations (3 more releases)

Xuan Mu's transformation was well known to the Lady of Xuan. In the past, the lesser sons, emboldened by the old master Xuan's favor, sought affirmation from Xuan Mu. He had never minded their interruptions, but this time, asserting his authority as the eldest brother, he scolded several of his half-brothers. He informed the old master Xuan that they had disrupted his studies and accused them of harboring ill intentions and disrespecting their elders, laying out several charges against them. He also revealed their bullying done under the guise of their family status, using the example of the Duke Residence lady who was forcibly returned to the capital by Prince Huan. He questioned whether they wished to see the Xuan Residence face extermination and the confiscation of property.
