Chapter 0002: The Transformation of Quality

Tang Xiu was already blaming himself for his inappropriate behavior that had frightened his mother. Upon hearing the mockery and insults from Zhang Meiyun and Su Xiangfei, he was naturally filled with rage and did not hesitate to scold them.

After a period of integration, Tang Xiu has fully adapted to his identity on Earth and has made the most appropriate response at this moment

As Su Shangwen spoke, he casually reached out and pushed, intending to move Tang Xiu's body aside

The "Ranyuan Jue" is a very common method of cultivating energy in the immortal realm, akin to a breathing mantra. It does not require any foundational cultivation, allowing even ordinary individuals to practice it. However, it does consume a small amount of the body's life potential, though it generally does not cause harm to the body

Su Shangwen has navigated the business world for over 20 years, accumulating a certain degree of influence. He is accustomed to issuing commands in front of a large family, and he originally thought that a stern reprimand would render Tang Xiu speechless.

Certainly, the function of the "Ranyuan Jue" is also extremely limited; it can only enhance physical strength for a short period of time

Every time there is a banquet at your home, my grandparents, uncles, and we, as mother and child, have contributed our share of money, yet you excuse yourselves by saying there are too many people, and we are not even qualified to sit at the table. Is this what you call understanding hierarchy?

In the end, Tang Xiu spent ten thousand years in the Immortal Realm. Whether as the spoiled grandson of the sect leader or as a towering figure of his generation, he was always in a high position, accustomed to giving orders and commanding others. The aura he accumulated over the years was beyond what ordinary people could imagine. When a fragment of his soul returned to its rightful place in the Immortal Realm, it was inevitable that Tang Xiu on Earth would possess this aura.

Su Shangwen, how dare you!" Tang Xiu almost shouted hysterically, his eyes bursting with a terrifying light.

Su Shangwen never expected that, in the face of his stern reprimand, Tang Xiufei not only did not show any signs of fear or retreat, but instead confronted him head-on. Moreover, the aura emanating from Tang was not in the slightest inferior to his own, and in fact, it firmly overshadowed him.

Only after experiencing loss can one truly understand the value of cherishing

Tang Xiu was taken aback and turned around, only to discover that Su Shangwen's slap had actually landed on his mother's face

However, Su Shangwen's hesitation provided Tang Xiu with an opportunity to evade. While Su Shangwen was speaking to bolster his own courage, Tang Xiu had already swayed his body and slipped to the side

With Tang Xiu's stern shout, the temperature in the room seemed to plummet to freezing point, causing everyone present to shiver uncontrollably. Zhang Meiyun and her son Su Xiangfei appeared as if someone had gripped their throats, unable to utter a single word.

Furthermore, Tang Xiu's control over his own body has reached an astonishing level; it feels as if he had been bound by ropes all along, and suddenly the ropes have snapped, allowing him to break free from his restraints, revealing a brand new world before him

There is a lot of blood, hurry and call the police

Before losing consciousness, Su Shangwen faintly heard a flurry of panicked shouts and cries, but he could not comprehend what had happened

Tang Xiu then remembered that he had just been embraced by his mother, who was naturally standing closely behind him. After he dodged, Su Shangwen's slap naturally landed on his mother's face

Tang Xiuxin's thoughts stirred, and he instinctively prepared to unleash his celestial arts to punish this earthly insect before him, who was utterly unaware of the vastness of heaven and earth

Only by experiencing loss can one truly understand what is most precious

Tang had grown accustomed to his identity in the celestial realm, yet he forgot that on Earth, he was merely an ordinary mortal. Not only did he lack any trace of primordial energy within him, but his body was also exceedingly frail, even weaker than that of an average person

Su Shangwen faintly sensed that a change had occurred in his nephew, a change that made him extremely uncomfortable and even gave him a sense of danger. However, he could not immediately discern what exactly had changed in his nephew. Seeing that his wife and son were completely overwhelmed by his nephew's imposing presence, he had no choice but to step forward and speak.

Su Shangwen, what qualifications do you have to discuss the concepts of honor and disgrace with me

Under the intense pain, Su Shangwen's head felt like that of a drowning weakling, helplessly flailing his arms in a desperate attempt to grasp a lifeline

Although Tang Xiu is currently physically weak and completely unable to compete with Su Shangwen, he is confident that if he accumulates and concentrates his strength, he can seize the opportunity to explode at the most critical moment and crush Su Shangwen with his close combat skills

Seeing Su Shangwen actually daring to lay hands on him, Tang Xiu couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. Throughout the ten thousand years in the Immortal Realm, anyone who had ever laid hands on him had been turned to dust by him.

Without magical treasures, without cultivation, and even with a frail body, how am I supposed to resolve the difficulties before me? Tang Xiu coldly glared at Su Shangwen, while his mind was racing rapidly.

I... I have nothing to fear. Mother, uncle, I am your uncle. Am I not qualified to discipline you?" Su Shangwen was startled by Tang Xiu's sharp gaze, and his hands also froze in their movement

Tang Xiu was taken aback, while Su Shangwen displayed a sinister and triumphant smile on his face, his palm less than 10 centimeters away from Tang Xiu's face

Firstly, Tang Xiu's senses were enhanced by more than ten times, and the speed of his brain's calculations increased by nearly one hundred times. The words and actions of everyone in the house could not escape Tang Xiu's eyes and ears, and all the information was processed instantaneously by Tang Xiu's brain

As Su Shangwen's palm was about to strike his face, a look of shame and anger appeared on Tang Xiu's face. Having not suffered any loss in the celestial realm for nearly ten thousand years, today he was actually going to be slapped by an ordinary person

Faced with Tang Xiu's scolding, Su Shangwen was caught off guard, his face turning as red as a monkey's bottom, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart

Now that he has it again, Tang Xiu's heart is filled with tumultuous emotions, and he silently vows to protect his mother well

"That's not right. Given the position where Su Shangwen was just standing and the length of his arms, that slap just now couldn't possibly reach my mother's face. He must have been enraged after seeing me dodge, and deliberately took the opportunity to hit my mother." In a flash, Tang Xiu replayed the scene in his mind and then cast a cold glance at Su Shangwen

During a family gathering, Su Yaning and the siblings Su Xiangfei openly scolded and berated the elders, saying, "You two, as a couple, are equally arrogant and domineering, flaunting your power. Is this what it means to understand respect and hierarchy?"

In the realm of immortals for ten thousand years, Tang Xiu has practiced countless secret techniques. The collection of techniques he possesses is vast like an ocean of smoke. He vaguely remembers a book titled "Ranyuan Jue" that could resolve the current issue.

Regret, pain, anger, and self-blame; in an instant, Tang Xiu's heart was consumed by various negative emotions

When Tang Xiu saw Su Shangwen's slightly leaning body that had not yet had time to retract, as well as the mocking smile at the corner of Su Shangwen's mouth that seemed to be a show of defiance, the anger in Tang Xiu's heart reached its peak

When that wisp of soul from the celestial realm returned to the body, on the surface, Tang Xiu showed no signs of change; in fact, profound transformations had taken place within him.

Tang Xiu's transformation is not merely the return of his soul to wholeness or the restoration of the wisdom he possessed a year ago; rather, he has undergone a qualitative change that encompasses his entire being, from top to bottom and from the inside out

Having assets worth tens of millions, yet abandoning one's grandparents and leaving them to live a hard life in the countryside with the uncle, even sharing the medical expenses and living costs among the uncle and aunts, is this what you call understanding respect and hierarchy

Tang Xiu's behavior of shouting and colliding seems somewhat like losing reason due to anger, yet this is also a reaction that is appropriate for a sixteen-year-old.

Just looking at Su Shangwen's sturdy body, which resembled that of a bear, and then thinking about his own frail physique, Tang Xiu forcefully suppressed the impulse within him

Almost instinctively, Tang Xiu wanted to rush forward and fight to the death with Su Shangwen

Throughout the millennia of the celestial realm, the figure that has haunted Tang Xiu's dreams is his mother, whose presence on Earth has almost become the sole inner demon he faces on his path of cultivation

Just when Tang Xiu thought he had escaped a calamity, a crisp sound of "pa" suddenly rang in his ear, causing his heart to skip a beat.

"You think I'm afraid of you?" Seeing Tang Xiuchao, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, charge towards him, Su Shangwen curled his lips into a slight disdainful smile and sternly reprimanded, "I only intended to teach you a lesson just now. It was your own reckless dodging that caused your mother to get slapped. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself; you can't put the blame on me.

With a crisp sound of "crack," Su Shangwen's arm was declared dislocated

How could a perfectly good birthday party turn into this? Is it worth it for three thousand yuan?

With a moment's effort, Tang Xiu's eyes lit up

In the next moment, Tang Xiu's face turned pale.

Tang Xiu ignored Su Shangwen's fierce gaze, casting a sidelong glance at him, and began to enumerate with his fingers.

In a single sentence, Su Shangwen was somewhat angered by Tang Xiu's defiance; not only did he not relent, but he also struck Tang Xiu's face with even greater force.

Help! A murder has occurred!

"Su Shangwen, how dare you hit my mother? I will fight you!" After a few breaths, when Tang Xiu's internal strength had accumulated to a certain level, he noticed that Su Shangwen showed no intention of apologizing to his mother. His mother silently endured Su Shangwen's slap. With a roar, he charged towards Su Shangwen.

However, Tang Xiu did not intend to endure in silence. If the previous mocking words of Su Shangwen's family merely made Tang Xiu angry, then Su Shangwen's deliberate act of slapping his mother, Su Lingyun, had already touched the reverse scale in Tang Xiu's heart, causing him to feel extreme aversion towards Su Shangwen's family.

Su Shangwen had not yet had the chance to let out a painful groan when he felt an immense and unparalleled force collide with his abdomen, nearly causing him to vomit everything he had consumed at the midday banquet. To make matters worse, Tang Xiu's hands were randomly poking at him, leaving him in a state of nausea without the ability to expel it, rendering him dizzy and in unbearable pain.

"Tang Xiu, who gave you the audacity to shout in front of us? Do you have any sense of respect and hierarchy left in your eyes? You even have the nerve to justify stealing money?" After a brief silence, Su Shangwen stepped forward and scolded in a fierce yet cowardly manner

"You bastard who has no one to teach you in life, since your mother cannot control you, I will teach you a lesson!" After being left speechless by Tang Xiu's words, Su Shangwen couldn't help but feel a mix of anger and shame, raising his palm to slap Tang Xiu's face.
