"Why do you two just keep quiet hearing him say something like that, Dad, Mom?" Shui Yan angrily asked her parents, she still didn't understand why her parents respected Xia Tian so much.
Shui Lihao and Qin Shuang exchanged glances, and they sighed softly, then he said. "You have made a grave mistake by insulting Xia Tian in front of Zhu Yuhe, Yan'er. Fortunately, she did not take your words to heart, otherwise she would have suppressed you, and that would have damaged the hundreds of years of good relations between the two kingdoms."
Shui Yan felt even more confused listening to her father's words. "What do you mean by that, Dad? Why did Queen Yuhe have to pressure me just for his sake?"
"Sigh, you better listen to your father, Yan'er." Qin Shuang said with a low sigh. "We can't tell you the truth, but it's best if you don't antagonize Xia Tian anymore, moreover you've already proven yourself that he's not bragging to you."
Shui Yan frowned, she really didn't like her parents hiding things from her, but she also knew that if they behaved like that, then she wouldn't get any information from them.
"Humph!" Shui Yan snorted in annoyance, she then ran away from her parents' room.
Shui Lihao sighed heavily at his daughter's behavior. "Yan'er has grown up, but she's still always been childish."
"Well, that's probably because she rarely hangs out with her peers." Qin Shuang then thought to herself, before she spoke again. "In my opinion, it would be best if we sent her to the sect, Husband."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hmm?" Shui Lihao raised his eyebrows. "Which sect is suitable for her?"
Qin Shuang answered her husband directly. "Yan'er is very fond of Array Formation, and I heard that Elder Feng of the Array Formation Hall in Star Moon Sect is the best in that field. So I think, it would be best if we sent her to learn under her."
"To my knowledge, the Star Moon Sect is a dual cultivation sect, so I don't want to send her to the sect." Shui Lihao said with a shake of his head.
Qin Shuang smiled at him, and leaned her head on his shoulder. "You don't have to worry about that, Husband. Although the Star Moon Sect is a dual cultivation sect, they also have several other divisions, and their sect rules are also very strict, so other disciples would not dare to act indecently against her, otherwise they will be expelled from the sect."
"Alright then, I will send her to Star Moon Sect as soon as possible." After thinking about his wife's words, Shui Lihao finally agreed with her opinion.
--------------------------------
"Damn it! Who exactly is Xia Tian? Why are mom and dad defending him so much? And what's his relationship with Queen Yuhe? Why did dad say that she would pressure me because of him?" Shui Yan muttered to herself in annoyance, as she walked towards her room. Suddenly, she saw her half sister daydreaming by the fountain, so she chose to approach her. "What are you daydreaming about, Liuli?"
Shui Yan's question woke Shui Liuli from her daydream, and she answered. "I was just thinking about something, Big Sis."
"Hmm? Are you thinking about something, or are you thinking about someone, Liuli?" Shui Yan then sat beside her, and looked up at the night sky.
Shui Liuli smiled. "Well, I was thinking about my mom's story about someone, Big Sis."
Shui Yan then teased her. "Let me guess, it must be a man, right?"
"En." Shui Liuli just nodded.
"Hmm? Did you fall in love with the man in your mother's story?" Shui Yan curiously asked.
However, Shui Liuli shook her head. "I don't know, Big Sis. But I definitely admire him, because his life story is very interesting, especially his love story."
Shui Yan grew more and more curious about the man her half sister was referring to. "Who is that man, Liuli?"
"Xia Tian, Big Sis." Shui Liuli replied curtly.
Shui Yan darkened hearing Xia Tian's name, she didn't understand why everyone treated him so well, because in her eyes he was clearly a pervert. "Tell me, Liuli. Who exactly is Xia Tian? Why do you guys respect and admire him so much?"
"Xia Tian is Xia Tian, but the current him is different from the one you have in mind, Big Sis." Shui Liuli then turned to her, and continued. "Although I don't know him well yet, but I can confirm that he is not a bad guy, otherwise Sister Mengxin and Sister Suya will not fall in love with him. Do you think they'd fall in love with a bad guy, Big Sis?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShui Yan fell silent hearing her words, she knew for sure the character of the two women, and she also knew that many men had approached them, but all of them were rejected. But now, they had fallen in love with Xia Tian, and Murong Mengxin had even officially become his fiancé. As for Yu Suya, although they are not yet an official couple, but she is not shy about admitting their relationship. 'Did I really misjudge him? Is it true that he really has changed now? But how could he have changed so drastically?'
*Tap... Tap...*
The Shui Sisters turned towards the sound of the footsteps, and they saw Wang Xinruo walking towards them. Wang Xinruo then said to her daughter. "I want to send you to the sect, Liuli."
"Hmm? Why do you suddenly want to send me to a sect, Mom? And which sect did you choose for me?" Shui Liuli asked in confusion, even Shui Yan was also confused by her sudden decision.
Wang Xinruo immediately sat down beside her daughter. "I want to send you to the Star Moon Sect, Liuli. Don't you want to learn about medical knowledge? Elder Yao of the Star Moon Sect is one of the best physicians in the southern continent, so you can study under her tutelage."
Shui Yan then asked with a raised eyebrow. "Why don't you send Liuli to the Medicine Valley Sect, Aunt Xinruo? Isn't Elder Dugu the best physician in the southern continent?"
"Dugu-"
"You're wrong, Yan'er." Shui Lihao had already spoken from afar, he then approached them along with his wife. "Dugu Zhong is indeed a well-known physician, but he is not the best. Moreover, that old man is greedy, everyone who seeks treatment from him has to pay a very high price."
"Your father is right, Yan'er." Qin Shuang added. "Anyway, we also want to send you to the Star Moon Sect, Yan'er."
"What!?" Shui Yan exclaimed in disbelief, even Wang Xinruo and Shui Liuli were surprised by Qin Shuang's words.
Qin Shuang then explained to her daughter. "Don't you like studying Array Formation? That's why we wanted to send you there, since Elder Feng is an expert in that field, that way you can learn to become an Array Formation Expert like her."
"Alright then, I'll join the Star Moon Sect together with Liuli." Hearing her mother's explanation, Shui Yan immediately agreed without hesitation. Shui Liuli also nodded in agreement, as she also wanted to become a physician.
