Chapter 715 The Trap at the Birthday Party

As the commercial car sped away, the smile on Chu Xuanming’s face was slowly replaced by resentment.

At this moment, several cars rushed over and Chu Mingcong got out of the car. He ran to Chu Xuanming and said, “Dad, where is that guy? Why didn’t you stop him?”

Chu Xuanming said gloomily, “I stopped his car, but there’s nothing I can do. We can’t afford to offend him.”

“Why?” Chu Mingcong asked in confusion, “Except for the Seven Great Families, is there anyone else in the capital that we need to show any respect to?”

“He’s Qin Haodong!”

“What? Are you sure?”

Hearing this familiar name, Chu Mingcong was shocked and then said with hatred, “Dad, do we really need to be afraid of him? He’s treading on our necks now!”

Chu Xuanming glanced around to make sure that there was no one around, then he said coldly, “Of course we’ll take action. How dare he look down on us. I must make him pay the price.”

Hearing that he could take revenge, Chu Mingcong said excitedly, “Dad, what’s your plan?”

Chu Xuanming explained, “He’s powerful, but I’m not any ordinary weak man. He’ll definitely come to your grandfather’s birthday party tomorrow. At that time, he will find himself in great trouble.”

Then he asked the bodyguards around him to send him back to the Chu family.

Qin Haodong returned to the Tang Sect with Lin Momo, Tang Tang and Han Jieyu. Chu Xuanyue was watching TV with her daughters-in-law in the hall. She was overjoyed and came to the door when she saw her son coming back with two beauties and a cute girl.

It was the first time Wei Yanran, Yan Feifei and the others saw the little fellow. But they liked her at first sight.

The little fellow was also happy to see so many beautiful aunts gathered around her. She cried out, “Second Mama, Third Mama, Aunt Wan’er and so many beautiful aunts, do you all love my Papa? That’s great!”

Qin Haodong immediately stopped her, pointed to Chu Xuanyue and said, “She’s not your auntie. Call her grandma!”

The little fellow said innocently, “Grandma? But shouldn’t all grandmas walk with a cane? She looks so young.”

Qin Haodong said, “That’s the old grannies you’re talking about. This is your grandmother. Call her grandma!”

Although she was a little confused, she still said obediently, “Nice to meet you, grandma!”

“Good girl! Come here and let me see you more clearly.”

Chu Xuanyue liked Tang Tang so much that she held this little girl in her arms and kissed her on her face. She was perfectly content to have her son and granddaughter back.

Then Qin Haodong introduced Lin Momo and Han Jieyu to the people present. The little fellow soon became the core of attention of the whole big family. Everyone gathered around her and there were lots of laughter.

After a while, Zhang Tieniu rushed in and reported to Qin Haodong, “Boss, Mr. Chu Xuanli is here.”

Hearing that his uncle was here, Qin Haodong went out to welcome him and brought him to another living room, together with Chu Xuanyue.

After exchanging the usual pleasantries, Chu Xuanli said, “Xuanyue, Haodong, tomorrow is Dad’s 80th birthday. I specially came here to invite you for the party.”

Chu Shanhe was her father, after all. So Chu Xuanyue sighed and was about to agree when Qin Haodong stopped her.

He said, “Uncle, we really should go back for his birthday party. But you know that my mother was driven out by the Chu family and I don’t think it’s appropriate to go back so casually.”

Chu Xuanli’s heart sank. He had already expected this before he even came here. He knew that it would not be easy to invite Qin Haodong to the party and it turned out to be true.

He said, “Haodong, Dad also admitted that it was indeed the Chu family’s fault for having driven her out. So we’ll agree to any conditions.”

Qin Haodong said, “Just invite my mother back the same way you drove her out!

“Tomorrow is his birthday, so I won’t ask him to come here in person to invite my mother back. But the procedures can’t be omitted. The Chu family must receive my mother back in a regal manner and everyone in the capital must know that it’s the Chu family who is begging us to go back.”

“Besides, when we return to the Chu family, grandpa must stand at the gate and welcome us back in person.”

“What…”

Chu Xuanli said, “It won’t be a problem to bring my little sister home. I’ll come with your second uncle to bring her back publicly. But isn’t it inappropriate to ask Dad to welcome her at the gate?”

Chu Xuanyue was about to say something, but Qin Haodong gave her a sharp look and stopped her. He said indifferently, “You can just tell him my condition. If he agrees, we will go back, otherwise, you can just forget about this.”

Of course, he had his own purpose in doing this. The big family was always scheming and fighting and his mother would definitely be laughed at when she went back. If Chu Shanhe could be at the gate to welcome her personally, the others would be hesitant when they wanted to plot against her.

“Well then, I’ll call Dad and ask him about this.”

Chu Xuanli did not dare to make a decision on his own. He called Chu Shanhe. When he heard Qin Haodong’s condition, he was silent for a while and then said, “I agree. As long as Xuanyue and Haodong are willing to come back, I will be at the gate to welcome them.”

Although he was unwilling to do this, he had no other choice. The Tang Sect’s dominant position in the capital had been established now and all the Seven Great Families were eager to please Qin Haodong. He should not let this opportunity go.

After hanging up, Chu Xuanli came back and said, “Dad has agreed. He will do as you say.”

Qin Haodong nodded and said, “Well, that’s a deal. We will go back and celebrate the birthday tomorrow.”

After the matter was settled, Chu Xuanli turned around and was about to leave. But Qin Haodong stopped him, “Uncle, come with me.”

Then he said goodbye to Chu Xuanyue and brought Chu Xuanli to the nearby room. At the same time, he also asked someone to bring Chu Mingli and Chu Minhui over too.

Chu Xuanli was slightly stunned at the sight of his son and daughter. It had only been a few days, but he felt that both of them had undergone great changes. Even their temperaments seemed to be different.

“Your cultivation has improved?”

Chu Mingli nodded, “Cousin Haodong helped us to improve our cultivation when we arrived here. It has completely stabilized during the past few days.”

Chu Minghui held her father’s arm and said happily, “Brother and I have both improved our cultivation by three levels! Cousin Haodong is really amazing.”

Chu Xuanli was shocked at first and then he felt so lucky he was able to leave his two kids here in the Tang Sect. If he had called them back that day, they would not have made any more improvements.

He said gratefully to Qin Haodong, “Haodong, thank you so much!”

“Uncle, don’t be so polite. We’re family and it’s my duty to help my cousins.”

Chu Minghui laughed, “Cousin Haodong, why did you ask us to come here? Are you going to help us improve our cultivation once again?”

Chu Xuanli gave her a warning glare and said, “You are talking nonsense again. Do you think it’s a game to improve your cultivation? It can’t be that easy and fast.”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Uncle, she’s right. I really want to help you improve your cultivation now.”

As a ninth-level grandmaster, he had stretched his limit to the utmost to help Chu Xuanli become an eighth-level master. But now things were different. He was now a martial artist at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. It was not difficult for him to help them to go further.

Chu Xuanli said doubtfully, “Can you do this? We’ve made great improvements recently and I’m afraid that we might have Qi Deviation if our foundation and state of mind is unstable.”

Qin Haodong said confidently, “Don’t worry, uncle. I’m sure that you won’t go mad. I’ll be here with you.”

Chu Minghui followed him, “Yes, Dad, please believe in Cousin Haodong. He’s great!”

This little girl now had only blind admiration for Qin Haodong. She felt that there was nothing her cousin couldn’t do.

“Of course I believe in him. I’m just making sure.”

Then Chu Xuanli sat down cross-legged on the ground. Chu Mingli and Chu Mingli also sat next to him.

Qin Haodong gave them three Spirit Culturing Pills and then began to help them improve their cultivation.

With his help, the Genuine Qi of the three improved again. Chu Xuanli became a ninth-level grandmaster while Chu Minghui and Chu Mingli were also promoted to the seventh level of the supreme power Realm.

But after breaking through the bottleneck, their expressions suddenly changed. They looked afraid and sometimes giggled, or cried as if they had seen something special.

Qin Haodong knew that the inner demons were appearing in their minds now. Just as Chu Xuanli had mentioned, they had made great achievements recently and the unstable state of their minds might become a breeding ground for inner demons, which would give them illusions. If they did not get rid of this situation as soon as possible, they might really have Qi Deviation.

But it was not a problem for Qin Haodong. He was already prepared for this. He stretched out his right hand and the Demon-vanquishing Wand appeared.

The Demon-vanquishing Wand immediately sensed their inner demons. The 12 strings of coins on the staff kept clanging and made all kinds of sounds. Their inner demons were soon suppressed.

Qin Haodong nodded. This staff was indeed a treasure. They would not have any Qi Deviation with this around them.

Once their inner demons were cleared, their cultivation slowly stabilized. About 10 minutes later, the three of them slowly opened their eyes.

Feeling the strength in his body, Chu Xuanli was so excited that he even burst into tears.

He had been stuck in the sixth level of the supreme power realm for many years and he thought that it would be impossible for him to become a ninth-level grand master for the rest of his life. But Qin Haodong helped him improve by four levels in one week and helped him to realize the dreams which many warriors might be unable to realize for their whole lives.

“Haodong, we really should thank you!”

Then he bowed deeply to Qin Haodong with Chu Mingli and Chu Minghui.

“Uncle, please don’t do this.”

Qin Haodong reached out and helped the three of them up.

He had always been a grateful man. Since Chu Xuanli was good to his mother, he should also pay him back and offer some help to their family.

It would be Chu Shanhe’s birthday tomorrow, so he did not ask Chu Xuanli to stay any longer. Instead, he also asked Chu Mingli and Chu Minghui to go back with their father.

Qin Haodong returned to Chu Xuanyue’s room after they left.

Seeing her son coming back, Chu Xuanyue said, “Haodong, no matter what the Chu family had done to us, he’s still my Dad and your grandfather. We need to prepare some gifts for him tomorrow.”

She was experiencing complicated feelings right now. She was both resentful of the Chu family and happy to go home. She had thought about it for a long time. After all, Chu Shanhe was her biological father and she had to prepare a gift for him.

Qin Haodong said, “Mom, don’t worry about this. I’ll prepare the gift.”

“Well then, I don’t need to think about that then.”

Chu Xuanyue was also a strong woman, who had done everything herself over the years, but now she had such an excellent son, so she handed over everything to him.

Soon it was dinner time. The family had a lively meal. Then Qin Haodong took the little fellow away from the girls and brought her into the cultivation room.

She blinked her big eyes and asked, “Papa, what are you going to play with me here?”
