Chapter 694 Zhou Ming's Decision



The two nodded to Xia Tian, but their eyes then fell on Xia Qilian, who looked so happy in his father's arms, and Zhou Jia asked. "Is she your daughter, Brother-in-law?"

"Yes, her name is Xia Qilian." Xia Tian then pointed at her mother. "Tian Qilian is her mother."

"Huh?" Zhou Jia immediately looked at Tian Qilian in surprise, and she had just realized that there were so many women around them because she had only focused on his big sister.

Zhou Song was also surprised to see them and asked Xia Tian. "Are they all your wives, Brother-in-law?"

"Yes. They are all my sisters." It was Zhou Xuan who answered his question, and she then introduced Zhu Yuhe to them. "Ever since I left the Western Continent, I have lived with her in the Southern Continent."

"Thank you for looking after my big sister, Big Sis Yuhe." Zhou Jia sincerely said as she bowed to her, and Zhou Song also followed suit.

Zhu Yuhe shook her head. "Since you two are Sister Xuan's little brother and sister, you are also my brother and sister, so you two don't need to thank me."

Zhou Ming and Chu Qian sighed in their hearts, seeing their first daughter sharing a husband with many women.

Unfortunately, they still didn't know that there were still more Xia Tian women, or they would be even more shocked.

However, the two didn't say anything about their relationship, especially since they could see that Zhou Xuan didn't mind it and was happy with their relationship.

Meanwhile, Zhao Liang clenched his fist tightly but didn't dare to open his mouth as Ren Yao kept watching him.

Suddenly, Xia Tian said. "Old Yao, send that man back to the Western Continent; I don't want him among us."

"You-"

Before Zhou Liang could curse at him, Ren Yao had already moved to his side and grabbed his shoulder, carrying him away from the Mansion.

A few seconds later, Ren Yao appeared before them again. "Done! I dropped him off at the edge of the West Continent."

Zhou Ming and Chu Qian were shocked to hear that, and they immediately contacted their son. Just as Ren Yao had told them, Zhou Liang informed them that he was already on the Western Continent, shocking them even more. 'What the hell with that effeminate man? How can he go back and forth between the two continents in seconds?'

Seeing the expressions of her parents, Zhou Xuan said to them. "Father! Mother! You can't even feel Ren Yao's presence, right? So you don't need to be confused by his actions, for he is far stronger than any cultivator on this planet."

Zhou Ming and Chu Qian took a deep breath and nodded to their daughter, but the shock at Ren Yao's actions could never leave their minds.

On the other hand, Zhou Jia and Zhou Song looked at Ren Yao in awe, and they felt pleased that their big brother was no longer with them, especially since Zhou Xuan felt uncomfortable with his presence.

After that, Xia Tian said to Zhou Ming. "Anyway, Hu Duan died at the hands of Yinyue, so-"

"What?" The four people from the Zhou Clan exclaimed in shock, and they stared at Xia Tian with wide eyes.

Zhou Ming then asked him. "Are you kidding me? How could Princess Yinyue kill Hu Duan?"

"Not only Hu Duan, but Yinyue also killed his children, wife, and concubines." Xia Tian's words shocked them even more, especially since they remembered that Bai Yinyue didn't have that much power. "Anyway, Yinyue has decided to support Yan Qiong to become the next Emperor of the Western Continent, so I hope you will also support her for that."

Zhou Ming felt a dilemma in his heart because he had long dreamed of becoming Hu Duan's replacement if something happened to him. Yet, Xia Tian instead asked him to support Yan Qiong.

Moreover, Yan Qiong had never been involved in politics, and his Yan Clan didn't have much influence in the western continent, so he found it hard to accept that.

Zhou Xuan deeply understood her father's feelings, so she spoke directly to him. "Father, it would be great if you followed Tian's words. You may not know this yet, but Yinyue's cultivation has already reached the Peak Ancestor Origin Realm, so she is the strongest cultivator in the Western Continent."

"Huh?" Zhou Ming and Chu Qian looked at their daughter in shock.

"However, Yinyue has no interest in becoming the Empress of the Western Continent, so she chose Yan Qiong to succeed Hu Duan's position, and she has considered everything well." Zhou Xuan then paused and glanced at the two men. "Moreover, Tian and Ren Yao can help her easily, so I hope you can forget your ambitions and support her."

Zhou Ming nodded in understanding to his eldest daughter's words, but he still found it hard to accept.

Xia Tian didn't say anything further, letting Zhou Ming decide for himself. However, if he made a different decision, he would definitely do something about him.

Zhou Jia and Zhou Song exchanged glances and sighed in their hearts. Yet, they also hoped their father could forget his ambition to become the next Emperor, for they were already satisfied with their current situation.

After that, they talked about many other things, but Zhou Jia asked Xia Tian the most, for she wanted to get to know her brother-in-law better, especially since he was much younger than her, but he managed to win Zhou Xuan's heart.

Xia Tian was fine with that, and he happily answered Zhou Jia's every question.

Zhou Song didn't ask him much; he only asked Xia Tian simple questions.

Meanwhile, Chu Qian was already sitting together with her daughter in the room, and she kept rubbing Zhou Xuan's face longingly. "I still didn't expect you to choose such a young man to be your husband, Xuan'er."

"Honestly, I never thought of becoming Tian's woman, especially since I've known him since he was born." Zhou Xuan said as she smiled wryly. "Moreover, he used to be the fiancé of Yuhe's daughter, but he continued to be aggressive with me, which made my feelings slowly melt, and I decided to be his wife."

Chu Qian nodded in understanding. "But you sure are lucky to be his wife, for he is an extraordinary young man and even has such strong friends by his side."

"Yes." Zhou Xuan nodded with a smile. "You're right, Mother."

"Don't you want to return to our kingdom?" Chu Qian asked with an expectant look.

However, her hopes had to be dashed listening to Zhou Xuan's following words. "I'm sorry, but I will never return to the Zhou Kingdom because that place left me with many sad memories. Moreover, Tian is my husband now, so I will stay by his side."

"I see." Chu Qian sighed softly and asked again. "So when do you want to have a child with Xia Tian? Your father and I are both very old, but we still haven't had a grandchild until now, so I hope you can give us one as soon as possible."

Zhou Xuan was stunned for a moment, but she immediately refused. "Currently, Tian is still very young, and many great things are waiting for him in the future, so I don't want to have children with him for now. If you can't wait to have a grandson, you can marry Zhou Liang to any woman."

Hearing that, Chu Qian's expression turned sad. "We've repeatedly forced him to marry, but he adamantly refused our request."

Zhou Xuan didn't comment on it, for she knew that Zhou Liang only wanted her as his wife, but that certainly would never have happened, even if she wasn't Xia Tian's wife.

On the other hand, Zhou Ming wanted to talk privately with Xia Tian. However, he refused his request, and he preferred to accompany his daughter instead.

Seeing Zhou Ming's expression, Ren Yao immediately approached and said to him. "Hey, Little Kid! You better listen to Old Tian's previous words. Suppose you choose to be his enemy by rejecting my sister-in-law's plan to push Yan Qiong to be the next Emperor; your family will truly suffer."

"Hmm?" Zhou Ming turned to Ren Yao with a raised eyebrow.

Ren Yao shook his head and continued. "I know Old Tian very well, and I dare to guarantee he will not remain silent if you oppose my sister-in-law. Moreover, if my sister-in-law decides to do so, she might have gained insight from the situation in the Western Continent, which will benefit everyone."

Upon hearing that, Zhou Ming fell silent and recalled all the changes that Bai Yinyue had brought to Bai Kingdom. In the past, it wasn't as big as it is now. Yet, she single-handedly turned it into the most advanced kingdom on their continent, and their people also lived in prosperity.

Before long, Zhou Ming sighed softly. "All right, I understand your words, Senior. I will forgo my ambition and fully support Princess Yinyue."

"En, that's good." Ren Yao then patted Zhou Ming on the shoulder. "Although you will not become the next Emperor, I can guarantee that your Zhou Clan will become better if you stand on the side of Old Tian and my sister-in-law. However, you must warn your eldest son not to think or act negatively, or else It will be bad for you and your family."

Zhou Ming nodded in understanding. "I will definitely warn my eldest son sternly."
