Tang Xing wiped off the blood from his mouth, propped himself up with his hands, and clutching at his chest, walked up to the hall’s high platform.

The young man was injured, but his eyes no longer avoided sight, he walked up to Tang Luo, looking directly at his own brother.

Finally, a bit like a martial artist. Tang Luo coldly snorted, “Another lesson for you, a true man in this world, who diligently practices martial arts, must at the very least be able to protect the people by his side.”

“Regardless of whether you truly like this slave or merely succumbed to a momentary lust. Once you’ve slept with her, she becomes your woman. The destiny of her life and death is for you alone to decide, not anyone else, not even our parents! If you cannot even protect your own woman, what good are you? Give up the martial arts and go home to be a rice worm!”

“This kick is punishment for your incompetence!

Tang Luo sent a kick flying at Tang Xing’s abdomen, kicking the young boy holding his chest, spinning him in mid-air.

After a while, Tang Xing flipped and landed, half-kneeling on the ground.

Now, not only was his chest in agonizing pain, it felt as if his internal organs were displaced.

“Thud—” Another mouthful of fresh blood gushed out. Tang Xing wiped the blood off his mouth and staggering, stood upright again.

Xu Shuhui, who had heard the sound of blood spitting, couldn’t resist opening her eyes. One glance was enough to set her tears flowing non-stop, with only her bitten lips stopping her sobs.

Seeing the young master get beaten badly, vomiting blood from punch after kick, some stewards furrowed their brows in intolerance, but didn’t dare utter a word in the face of Tang Luo’s stem countenance.

“Can you still stand?” Tang Luo asked coldly with a stern face. “Cough… I… cough… Can!” Tang Xing coughed another mouthful of blood, stubbornly straightened his body, and staggered towards the high platform.

The young boy, clutching his abdomen, came again in front of Tang Luo, took a deep breath, and let his hand down from his abdomen.

Tang Luo continued to be expressionless. He could see the stewards’ pity and

Xu Shuhui’s heartache in their eyes.

But this lesson was what the kid in front of him deserved!

He is a martial artist, what’s the matter with being punched, kicked, and spitting a bit of blood?

The young girl beneath the hall was only twelve or thirteen years old, she was played with by him for a night and she couldn’t even stand on her own legs.

Whoever came forth to express injustice for her?

Tang Luo frowned, holding onto Tang Xing’s collar again, and brought him up to eye level.

In a voice that both of them could hear, he said, “Finally, I want to teach you courage. Whether facing a difficult choice or the mistakes one has made. Even if it’s terrifying, you must face it and find a solution! Hiding and escaping will only make you a coward… In our family, there’s only room for three men, and there’s no room for any coward. Do you understand?”

Tang Xing, whose collar was held, looked into Tang Luo’s serious and stem eyes. A hint of gloom flashed in his heart and he whispered in response, “L..I understand.”

When he saw his mother in a fury, his first reaction was to play ostrich, leaving the innocent maid alone in the side hall.

The reason why the maid refused to utter a word was due to his instructions from last night, not to say anything if someone asked.

Thinking about it now, although she is a maid, she could keep her promise, and I could only play the ostrich. Tang Xing hated his own cowardice and tears welled up in his eyes.

Upon seeing Tang Xing cry, Tang Luo raised his voice and asked sternly, “I asked you! Do you understand?”

Tang Xing, with tears streaming down his face, shouted back at Tang Luo, “I understand!”

“As long as you understand.” Tang Luo loosened his grip and the little chap fell to the ground. His legs went soft, but he quickly straightened up again.

Tang Luo turned around, took out a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to Xu Shuhui, respectfully saying, “Thank you, mother, for allowing your son to teach his brother some life lessons.”

Xu Shuhui, with tears streaming down her face, watched her respectful eldest son take the handkerchief from his hand, her heart filled with ache and relief: “Luo Er, you did right, it’s my fault, it’s my fault.”

“Mother is the best mother in the world, it’s just that my little brother hasn’t grown up yet, for which you’ve had to worry a lot.” Tang Luo continued to bow and said, “I hope mother would leave the disposal of this maid to my little brother, I believe he can handle this matter well.”

“As you wish.” Xu Shuhui took the handkerchief to wipe her tears and agreed. “Also, mother need not worry about my younger brother’s martial arts foundation. He has already reached the peak of the Mortal Realm. His internal organs are being nourished by spiritual power, based solely on his physical condition, he is no less than some adult martial artists at the Mortal Realm. His pale complexion is only due to excessive indulgence last night, a bit of rest and he’ll be fine.” Tang Luo addressed the issue of martial arts foundation that Xu

Shuhui cared about most.

As a martial arts researcher, with a pair of eyes that could see spiritual power clearly, Tang Luo undoubtedly had the most say in this matter. Even if the matter of congenital spiritual qi was a misunderstanding by the world, the second taboo of Mortal Realm warriors was mostly a scare tactic used by major families. Why would so many inheritors of nobles decline after indulging in physical desires? Because most people choose to practice before sleeping, and practicing is the only way to increase spiritual power.

Practicing martial arts will only make you more passionate and improve your combat power, meanwhile, recovery after depleting spiritual power does not involve growth; tempering your body will only make you stronger, and bulging muscles have nothing to do with the growth of spiritual power.

As for not indulging in physical desires before advancing to the Mortal Realm as mentioned in books, it’s just because young warriors have weak will. Men who have tasted a woman’s touch cannot go back, hence most of them would arrange a woman by their side, using the time for spiritual power growth to sleep with women at night. They would be the devil indeed if they could break through realms this way. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

So as long as he continues to practice, Tang Xing’s martial arts journey will not be affected at all. Xu Shuhui’s worries are purely out of fear from hearing rumors.

“Finally.” Tang Luo looked back at Liu Niang, who had been kneeling on the side of the hall all the time, and said indifferently: “I feel mother chose the head maidservant well, even the girls she trained showed admirable morality.”

It was clearly Tang Xing who called her into his room, but she vehemently denied it. The young girl kneeling in the hall had ten thousand reasons to expose this matter but she kept her mouth shut, undoubtedly because she promised the young lad.

Tang Luo didn’t believe that the girl’s importance of promise was greater than her own life, but her behaviour undoubtedly demonstrated the results of Liu Niang’s training and discipline.

To a maidservant, wasn’t the greatest virtue docility and loyalty? That’s why he admired Miao Zhu.

The head maidservant who could train such a maidservant herself would not lack virtue, let alone she confronted her mother under tremendous pressure

for the maidservant.

She could have completely shifted the blame onto Miao Zhu. With Xu Shuhui’s favour, she wouldn’t be heavily blamed, but even after Tang Xing denied it, she didn’t let it go. This shows how much confidence she had in the girls she trained.

Loyalty goes without saying, and with such a knack for training, it only suggests that mother Xu Shuhui’s choice of people was excellent.

Xu Shuhui, laughing, tapped gently on Tang Luo’s forehead: “Mother knows what you meant, I won’t blame Liu Niang for going against me, it seems I wronged her.”

“This maidservant thanks the gracious lady, and thanks the eldest young master!” Liu Niang, sobbing, thanked Xu Shuhui and Tang Luo.

“Come on, get up.” Xu Shuhui waved at Liu Niang with a warm smile..</p
