“Father?!!” Everyone in the Quan Zhen Sect almost had their eyeballs fly out as they asked in shock, “He really is your father?”
“Replacement guaranteed if I am not genuine!” Old Wang replied in excitement, “Why? Do we not look alike?”
“Ah?” Everyone started replying promptly, “Look alike! You two look pretty alike… But your hairstyle and ID are slightly more arrogant than Old Bull’s ones.” None of the people here was an idiot so who would dare to say that they don’t look alike? The combination of this father and son was enough to deal with everyone in this shop.
At this moment, Yang Nuo finally reacted, “No wonder I find you so familiar. It’s you!”
To be honest, Old Wang and Wang Yu looked pretty similar. The same tall and sturdy figure, a squarish face shape, thick eyebrows, big eyes and heroic spirit. The only difference was that Old Wang chose the Orcs clan. The green skin and sharp tooth covered the majority of his face and with that red hair, nobody would ever imagine that this old fella would be Wang Yu’s father.
“Tsk! Firing after the horse…” The Quan Zhen Sect started looking at Yang Nuo disdainfully.
“Oh? You’ve seen me before?” A curious Old Wang turned to look at Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo replied, “I’ve seen you when I was little.” Old Wang was the leading scholar of his time in terms of martial arts. Currently, the martial arts social circle was only this big. Even though Old Wang wouldn’t recognise a small character like Yang Nuo, Yang Nuo was also a practitioner of martial arts so it wasn’t surprising that she would have seen him before.
“Oh? You are?” Old Wang was slightly taken aback.
“My surname is Yang!” Yang Nuo replied, “You and my grandfather have competed before.”
“Aiya! You came looking for Wang Yu because you saw the video too?” Old Wang questioned.
“No, no, no.” Yang Nuo explained, “I’ve been playing this game with them for a long time now…”
“Eh? This little b*stard…” Old Wang scratched his lower chin as he was completely at loss now.
“Erm… So why are you here?” Wang Yu was fearful that Old Wang would continue asking so he asked anxiously.
“If it ain’t because of you!” Old Wang pointed at the stool beside him before ordering Wang Yu, “Go and have a seat!”
Wang Yu walked over without saying anything.
Old Wang continued, “So young and you’re openly challenging someone now? Do you know their Old Li has complained to me about it? I saw the video and immediately got your brother to create an account for me.”
“I didn’t do it on purpose… Someone else recorded that.” Wang Yu explained.
Old Wang waved his hand, “I don’t care who is the one who recorded it. If you are the one who was getting beaten up in the video, I will break your leg immediately!”
The Quan Zhen Sect exclaimed in their hearts, “Wow… This old man is so protective of his children…”
Yang Nuo was confused because he should be secretly celebrating the fact that his clan won the other clan. However, he should be celebrating at home and not shouting it out loud here. If words spread out, how was he going to explain himself?
“You’re not here to pursue on this matter?” Wang Yu replied as though a weight was off his mind.
“Of course! Old man is here to find you.” Old Wang replied in a stern tone, “Where have you been for half the year?”
Everyone in the Quan Zhen Sect started paying close attention to this conversation… Other people family matters make the best gossip.
“I was just wandering around…” Wang Yu answered.
“Are you not afraid of starving to death?” Old Wang was furious because nobody understood his son better than he did. Old Wang knew the kind of education Wang Yu was given as he grew up and he knew how his son was like. He was never someone who could make it big by muddling along in society.
However, he had no choice because martial arts were wilting with each passing day. Generations after generations were getting worse and a sincere talent was needed to be able to reach the highest realm of martial arts. Wang Yu was a rare talent who would appear once every thousand years so Old Wang was naturally hoping to nurture him into a milestone-like figure.
Who knew that things would move in the opposite direction when they reach an extreme? Wang Yu was no different from a kid trying to survive in the harsh reality of society. Even though Old Wang sounded angry, such considerations were always in his mind.
“I almost starve to death but this is also why I’m gaming now…” Wang Yu answered honestly.
“…”
When a father hits a son, it is because he cares for him. Usually, Old Wang would be driven mad by Wang Yu because of how he always embarrassed him but today when he heard that Wang Yu almost starved to death, it was evident that his body moved twitched a little.
Following that, Old Wang lowered his voice, “So are you eating well now that you’re gaming?”
“En! At least I will not starve to death…” Wang Yu lowered his head.
“Alright, I shall not pursue anything that happened in the past. Once you’re done playing, hurry up and head back home.” Old Wang sounded calmer than before now.
Wang Yu replied, “I will discuss with my wife and find time…”
“Wife?” Old Wang’s voice was raised abruptly and it frightened the wits out of the Quan Zhen Sect…
“Since when did you get married? Why do I not know about it?” After a while, Old Wang turned to Yang Nuo and said, “Wow, what a woman. Doing one thing under the cover of another… I admire you!”
“What? What are you blabbering about?” Wang Yu called out for Old Wang, “She is not my wife…”
“?” Old Wang’s eyes were widened yet again, “If she is not the one, then who is? Li clan? Or the Chen clan?”
Old Wang came over to drag Wang Yu back. Since he had already lost his pride, he should at least have something to account for himself. Even if he got married, to either one of the children from these four families, this matter wouldn’t be an issue.
“None of them…” Wang Yu’s head was at an all-time low.
“Oh? Really?” Old Wang furrowed his brows and asked, “Bring her out for me to have a look!”
Actually, when Wang Yu revealed Old Wang’s true identity, Mu Zixian had already received the news. Mu Zixian was also aware that hiding forever was not the way to go and that something had to be explained in real life. Confronting Old Wang face to face was something she knew she had to go through.
Just as Old Wang’s voice was heard, Mu Zixian brought Li Xue and the four girls into the shop.
“Wow! So many? You’re so much stronger than me…” Old Wang exclaimed and everyone couldn’t help but frown at his comment.
“I only have one…” Wang Yu walked over to Mu Zixian as he held onto Mu Zixian’s hand. Mu Zixian looked sincerely into Wang Yu’s eyes.
Looking at Mu Zixian, Old Wang started scowling fiercely again, “You are his wife?”
“En! Father, hi there…” Mu Zixian spoke in a soft tone.
Old Wang, however, raised his voice, “Since when have I acknowledge you? Who are you to address me as your father!”
Old Wang’s words made the entire scene extremely awkward. Even the people at the neighbouring table turned around to listen.
Mu Zixian, “…”
Everyone else, “…”
This wasn’t a surprise because no matter who snatched his precious son’s heart, he wouldn’t feel good about it. If Mu Zixian was a man, Old Wang might even get into a fight.
“Mister Bull, why don’t we go back to our guild headquarters to talk things out? Gossips might spread since there are so many people here.” Fearless noticed the awkward atmosphere so he gave a suggestion.
If this old man started beating his son up, everyone here was friends so they could take it as a joke. However, Old Bull’s flare towards Mu Zixian in public was not something the Quan Zhen Sect wished for. As Wang Yu’s friend, Fearless was undoubtedly not going to let Wang Yu’s family matters end up on the forum tomorrow.
