Chapter 476: Martial Nephew
Li Yao sat comfortably on Xiang Yu’s lap.
“How are you feeling?” Xiang Yu asked.
“Much better,” she said.
Her smile was bright now, and even her complexion looked healthier.
She appeared like a cute angel instead of the earlier demonic self. She thought to herself that she was so happy – she had fought with her senior brother for trillions of years. With this, she should be somewhat satisfied, at least for the next day or so.
“Then we can finally go see Master and Martial Aunt. You can also take the time to meet your martial nephew,” Xiang Yu said.
“Martial nephew?” she asked in surprise.
“That’s right. Martial Aunt’s son has already been born,” he explained. “He’s quite talented.”
“Do you want to meet him?” he asked with a smile.
“Yes, yes!” she said excitedly. She wondered if she was going to become a martial aunt now.
“Alright then,” Xiang Yu said, snapping his fingers to disperse the time acceleration from before.
The two then left the house.
“You’re back,” the Empress spoke. Gazing at Xiang Yu, she thought to herself that he already had a mystic aura around him before, but now the gap felt so immense it was completely insurmountable.
“Yes. Thank you for taking care of my wife,” Xiang Yu said.
“It’s nothing,” the Empress said.
Xiang Yu looked at Li Yao. She understood and moved forward, bowing at a ninety-degree angle. “I’m really sorry about what I did before,” she said.
The Empress just smiled, placing her hand on Li Yao’s head. “It’s okay. I would’ve done the same thing,” she said, turning around and walking away.
“The same thing?” Li Yao asked in confusion, but the Empress had already disappeared.
“Alright, don’t disturb the Mother Goddess. Let’s go,” Xiang Yu said, pulling Li Yao toward him before disappearing.
He appeared inside his spiritual sea.
After reaching complete manifestation of the Absolute Source Law, he could even enter the space inside himself. He looked at the area around him. The chaos here was complete, just like the chaos from the outside world – filled with countless planes of existence, all containing complex systems.
Well, it was even better than the outside one, since Li Yao had almost completely destroyed that.
As he thought of this, a Sixth Path Sage appeared before them.
“Stop! This is the territory of the Azure Cloud Sect. Introduce yourself,” a muscular man spoke.
Xiang Yu smiled. “Go tell Liu Qing that the Professor is here to collect her homework,” he said.
The guard paused for a moment, clearly taken aback.
He looked at the two before him. It was then that he finally felt the aura they were emitting.
He quickly bowed. “I will go inform the Sect Master. Please wait here,” he said before teleporting away.
…
“Liu Feng, you dog, show yourself right now!” Liu Qing’s voice reverberated across the sect.
A boy sitting atop a tree turned his head. “Aunt Liu Qing and Uncle Liu Feng are at it again,” the boy thought. He then wore a smile. “I’ll go watch,” he said, jumping from his position and disappearing.
He arrived just as Liu Feng left his house unenthusiastically. “Chairman, why are you shouting at people’s houses so early in the morning?” he asked, cleaning his ear.
Liu Qing didn’t respond and just extended her hand.
“What?” Liu Feng asked.
“Give it up. I know you stole the last Cultivation 101 book from the Cultivation Library,” Liu Qing said.
Liu Feng wore a surprised expression. He wondered how she had found out. He had finally gotten his hands on the final original copy of the book. He reached for his sword.
“Don’t even think about escaping. I have you surrounded,” Liu Qing said, making several hand gestures and causing runes to flare up around Liu Feng.
Liu Feng was surprised at first but then smiled. “Hmph, do you think this little thing can stop me? I will…” Before he could finish his words, he was smacked on the head, causing him to fall to the ground.
“Which idiot dares…” he screamed as he turned around, before pausing as he noticed who was before him.
“Idiot, you say…” Li Mei spoke, cracking her knuckles.
Liu Feng quickly appeared behind her, massaging her shoulders placatingly. “Wife, you’re misunderstanding. I wasn’t referring to you,” he said.
“If not me, then who were you referring to?” she asked, unconvinced.
Liu Feng looked around. The only other person here was Liu Qing – there was no way he could say that he was referring to her. “Ahhh,” he murmured, before noticing a newcomer. “Him… yes, I was referring to him,” he said.
“You’re calling my martial nephew an idiot?” Li Mei asked.
“No, you’re misunderstanding. Since he doesn’t have a name, we agreed that I could refer to him like that. It’s a joke, trust me,” Liu Feng said.
Li Mei turned to face her martial nephew who had just arrived. Her expression became sweet. “Nephew, don’t be scared. Aunt will protect you. Just tell the truth,” she said.
He was about to speak when Liu Feng spoke to him through voice transmission.
“~Martial nephew, please save me,” Liu Feng said.
“~How much?” the nephew asked.
“~Huh?” Liu Feng asked in confusion.
“~How much to save you? My services aren’t for free,” he said.
“This brat…” Liu Feng thought, grinding his teeth.
“~Make it quick,” the nephew urged.
“~Fine, I’ll give you a billion Space Dao Crystals,” Liu Feng said.
“~Too little. It seems your life isn’t worth much,” the nephew said.
Liu Feng gritted his teeth. “~Fine, one billion Space Dao Crystals… and a martial arts manual signed by the Ancestor,” Liu Feng said. Dammit, this was not worth it at all. He would have to steal it back in secret later.
The nephew smiled. “~Deal,” he replied.
“It’s true that me and Uncle call each other like that,” the nephew said.
“Hmmm, I see. I guess it’s fine since Nephew agrees,” Li Mei said. “Anyway, give back what you stole,” she said.
“What are you talking about?” Liu Feng tried to play dumb.
“Give it back now,” Li Mei insisted.
“Hmph, fine,” he said, waving his hand and throwing the book.
Liu Qing caught it easily. She then inspected it. “From now on, you’re banned from the Cultivation Library,” Liu Qing said before turning around and leaving.

Author’s Corner
This is so weird, usually, the kid would become Xiang Yu’s martial brother as he would be born and instantly be treated like elder guo’s disciple. But this becomes complicated when you consider that now everyone considers xiang yu as the ancestor. To solve this, you can have Xiang Yu name him and take him in as a disciple. This solves the problem as he now becomes Li Yao’s martial nephew and Xiang Yu’s disciple. But then he will have to call xiang yu master and his father grandmaster then the so called grandmaster will call xiang yu ancestor. wtf
