The Supreme Lord Donghuang
chapter-219

Chapter 219: I Approve of this Marriage!

“Yes.”

Towards the question posed by the old lady, Zhou Donghuang nodded his head. At the same time, he observed that most likely, the old lady had heard about him from Luo Qinghan.

As to Luo Wuchen’s cluelessness, Zhou Donghuang was not surprised as well.

In any case, for the matter that had transpired between Zhou Donghuang and Luo Qinghan, from Qinghan’s perspective, it would definitely not be convenient for her to share such details with her father given their difference in gender.

However, in contrast, it would be normal for Qinghan to share such intimate stories with her grandmother.

This old lady was indeed Qinghan’s grandmother, Li Yu, who was a late Dharma adept and extremely powerful.

“You… Aren’t you from the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun, which is located within the Kaiyuan galaxy? If I recall correctly, that place does not even house a galaxy teleporter! How did you manage to travel to the Tianxuan planet?”

Hearing Zhou Donghuang’s confirmation, Li Yu sighed calmly and said, “Also… you’re in the Primal Core stage now?

“Perhaps… Someone else brought you here?” Li Yu asked in detail.

Before Zhou Donghuang could speak, Luo Wuchen first spoke up in a low tone, “Mother-in-law, this young man is a Golden Essence adept and is even close to entering the Dharma stage.”

Seeing his mother-in-law’s reaction, Luo Wuchen could ascertain that the words Zhou Donghuang had uttered previously were probably true.

Instantly, his face darkened considerably, and he glanced unhappily at Zhou Donghuang with a look of dissatisfaction.

How dare this young man sleep with his daughter!?

He ought to die!

Furthermore, from his mother-in-law’s words, this young man was from a galaxy that did not even possess a galaxy teleporter?

For galaxies which did not possess any galaxy teleporter, it was normal to assume that they did not produce any Primal Core adepts. Even if a rare Primal Core adept were to enter the galaxy, they would still be disinterested in building a galaxy teleporter.

To Primal Core adepts, galaxies that did not own a galaxy teleporter were usually useless to visit and build one for, and they would not do so unless they felt that there was something to gain from visiting the galaxy or had thoughts of returning again.

Building a galaxy teleporter did not require many treasures, but it required a long period of time. No Primal Core adept would waste time unless they found value in doing so.

“How… For someone who was born in a galaxy that does not even have a galaxy teleporter, you still managed to enter the Primal Core stage and become a Golden Essence adept at this age!?”

Luo Wuchen did not doubt his mother-in-law, Li Yu’s words and was thus even more muddled now.

“A Golden Essence adept? And one that is approaching the Dharma stage at that?”

Li Yu was shocked by this news.

When her granddaughter was about 16 or 17, at this young man’s age, she had only been a Great Consummation of the Qi-Gathering adept. She had not even entered the Petty Consummation of the Qi-Gathering stage.

And yet with a few years’ difference, this young man had become a Golden Essence adept!?

Boom!

With no warning, an ear-piercing, thunderous roar suddenly resonated within the living room; it was a giant, hunched-over, Dharma-level beast that rose up behind Li Yu.

Clearly, it was a great ape.

This great ape was bent over as it was too big to fit in the dimensions of the living room. If it were to stand up straight, it would tear through the ceiling of the living room, which was already standing at an impressive height of over ten meters.

Previously, the three-foot Dharma power of Luo Wuchen’s was already this close to touching the ceiling of the living room, let alone this ten-foot tall great beast.

However, even as it bent over, its back was already close to the ceiling as it was just too ginormous.

Wah!

As the giant ape let out a wild cry, it also sent a strong wave of aura towards Zhou Donghuang. At the same time, golden flames of inner Yuan rose up steadily around Zhou Donghuang’s body.

Furthermore, the golden flames created out of Zhou Donghuang’s inner Yuan far surpassed that of a normal Golden Essence adept’s.

Nevertheless, when facing a ten-foot-tall giant ape, Zhou Donghuang’s body still experienced the breaking of its inner Yuan despite his powers. The pressure on his body caused him to tremble slightly on the spot.

“You are really a true Golden Essence adept!”

Li Yu smoothly retracted her Dharma power before glancing a second time at Zhou Donghuang with a spooked expression, as if she had seen a ghost. “It seems that that lass Qinghan has been outmatched!”

“He is not simply mediocre or average. This young man is so much more accomplished than Qinghan now. He is precocious and a genius!” Li Yu mused to herself.

Although she did not speak loudly, these words were still overheard by Luo Wuchen. Luo Wuchen could not help but open his mouth to give Li Yu a reminder, “Mother-in-law, do not forget that Qinghan only changed a few years ago.

“If she had been changed since young, she would not be any less accomplished than this young man!”

As Luo Wuchen spoke these words, he glanced scornfully at Zhou Donghuang, feeling a sense of irritation and dissatisfaction rise up between him. What a joke! This man had actually dared to corrupt his daughter and destroy her innocence!

“A few years ago, when Qinghan first met this man, he was only a Great Consummation of the Qi-Gathering adept! He was not even at the Petty Consummation of the Qi-Gathering stage!”

Once Li Yu had spoken these words, Luo Wuchen was stunned into silence once again. He glanced at Zhou Donghuang with a spooked expression and could not regain his composure for a long period of time.

“You are Donghuang, right? Come over here and let me take a good look at you!”

Li Yu waved at Zhou Donghuang and appeared to be extremely pleased. Zhou Donghuang obediently took a few steps forward hesitantly as he was a little shocked by the overwhelming friendliness of the old woman.

Her attitude had changed drastically, and it was a fresh welcome from Luo Wuchen’s hostility.

“Not bad, not bad indeed… Handsome, good aura, comparable to the most outstanding disciples of the big sects down the street… Not bad, not bad indeed!”

The longer the old woman stared at Zhou Donghuang, the more her approval for him grew.

Now, the way she stared at him was unlike a stranger glancing at another stranger but rather with the gaze a mother gave to her son.

“You’ve come to visit our home to ask for Qinghan’s hand in marriage? You are prepared to marry her and settle down with her?” Li Yu smiled and asked.

“Yes.”

Zhou Donghuang nodded his head.

“Very good, very good… At such a young age, you are sensible and courteous enough to respect customs. There aren’t many youths nowadays that are as mature as you. Mm, I am extremely satisfied. I approve of this marriage!”

Li Yu nodded her head in satisfaction.

“Ah?”

Li Yu’s passion and casual reply caused Zhou Donghuang to feel slightly uncomfortable.

However, that was simply his first reaction.

After he had regained his senses, Zhou Donghuang immediately bowed out of respect to Li Yu and signaled his gratitude. “Thank you, Ma’am.”

“No thanks needed, we are a family now…”

Li Yu smiled and continued to stare at Zhou Donghuang, mentally evaluating him further. As she did so, she continued nodding to herself as if she was extremely satisfied to have found a son-in-law like Zhou Donghuang.

“Mother-in-law!”

At this point, Luo Wuchen had finally regained his senses, and he smiled bitterly. “I am Qinghan’s father! If I have not given permission for this marriage to take place, how could you give your blessings just like that?”

“Hmph!”

Towards Luo Wuchen, Li Yu had on a less friendly expression, and she replied to him in a cold fashion, “In any case, I have already acknowledged and approved of this son-in-law. Why? Do you have a problem with this?”

Li Yu glanced steely at Luo Wuchen without flinching.

“No… No, I have no problem with that.”

Luo Wuchen smiled bitterly and shook his head as his heart grew heavier.

He knew that his mother-in-law was not any ordinary woman. If not, as a woman, she definitely would not have been able to cross to the late Dharma stage and become a late Dharma adept even before she had turned 500 years old.

Today, his mother-in-law was acting extremely out of the norm. There had to be some information that she knew that he didn’t!

“Donghuang, you were born in the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun?”

When she turned to look at Zhou Donghuang once more, Li Yu’s old face now had on a smile that looked forced, almost as if she wanted to cry.

“I guess so,” Zhou Donghuang replied.

“You guess so?”

Li Yu was confused.

“When I was young, my father sent me to the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun. I was raised up by my adoptive mother. My earliest memories stem from the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun.”

Zhou Donghuang explained his situation. At the same time, a cold glance flickered in his eyes, and he clenched his fists together tightly. The already dense golden flames surrounding his body flared out once again and flickered around his clenched fists. He now looked as if he were enveloped in a thick fog of gold.

Zhou Donghuang was now thinking about his biological father, Zhou Haotian and his biological mother, Zhuge Jing’s misfortune in his past life.

“There are still about 100 years to go… Father, mother, in this life, I will definitely save you both before anything horrible happens!”

With the wavering of his heart, Zhou Donghuang’s gaze grew stronger and more resolute.

“As expected.”

Li Yu sighed coldly to herself, and she had an internal realization. All along, she had suspected that the young man standing before them had been able to allow her granddaughter to undergo changes overnight back then due to the fact that his bloodline was royal and superior. This young man had martial arts talent that far exceeded that of her granddaughter which allowed him to help her improve drastically.

Now, Zhou Donghuang’s words had confirmed her suspicions.

“The fact that this boy’s father abandoned him in such an isolated and unknown galaxy’s planet, well, there must be a good reason behind it all! I’m quite sure that between his father and his mother, at least one of them is not any ordinary person! If not, they would not have been able to give birth to such a talented and unique child.”

Li Yu mused to herself.

“Donghuang.”

Now, no matter how she looked at the situation, Donghuang seemed to appeal to Li Yu more and more. Not only was he extremely talented, but he was also handsome as well. Donghuang also seemed extremely mature and stable. It would be hard for that granddaughter of hers to find a more outstanding and capable man to marry!

Most importantly, that young man had had sexual relations with her granddaughter.

Li Yu was extremely traditional in this aspect.

Of course, despite this important point and all the other details, the main point was that she had already acknowledged this young man before her as her grandson-in-law. She also believed that if her granddaughter dated and married this man, she had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

She had lived close to 500 years thus far and had gotten rather experienced at reading people.

“Grandmother-in-law?”

Zhou Donghuang had regained his composure, and his tightly clenched fists were loosened as well. With that, the inner Yuan surrounding him also subsided accordingly in intensity.

“Well, it is rather a coincidence though… About a year and a half ago, that lass Qinghan followed the Primordial Souls from the Hengliu galaxy as well as a few martial arts talents aged about 30 years old from the Tianxuan planet to visit the Hengliu galaxy. They wanted to visit the top sects within the Hengliu galaxy.”

Li Yu smiled bitterly and said, “Now, she probably should have already visited several of the top sects in the Hengliu galaxy.

“Before she left, she had mentioned that once she was familiar with the environment there, she would return to visit.

“Perhaps you could stay and wait for her?” Li Yu asked.

With such a speech, Zhou Donghuang realized that Luo Qinghan was not home at the moment. Instead, she was out on an expedition to the Hengliu galaxy, visiting their top sects.

As to which of the top sects she was visiting in the Hengliu galaxy, both Wuchen and Li Yu were not sure. They all had to wait till Luo Qinghan was back to find out.
