Chapter 2127 - One Wife, Two Concubines
Grandmother, which are you asking about? Tianming embarra.s.sedly asked.
Miss Linger.
When Tianming started giggling, Dongshen Yue bonked him on the head, making him see stars.
Alright, alright! I get it. Dont worry, shes mine. Even unto death and all that. Tianming blinked.
Then what about the other two? Can you get them? Dongshen Yue anxiously asked.
Get them? Dont be like that, Grandmother. Our relations.h.i.+p is very pure and family friendly, Tianming laughed. Actually, he understood that Dongshen Yue had already been won over by their talent. But Tianming was clear on his relations.h.i.+ps with Xiaoxiao and Moran. He knew that having a strong relations.h.i.+p meant the two elders would help them more.
Pure my a.s.s! Lin Xiao had arrived without being noticed and grabbed Tianmings other ear. Let Grandfather tell you, these are all fine young ladies. Dont miss this opportunity.
Its not about missing an opportunity. Go away. Dongshen Yue glared and Lin Xiao quickly scrammed. She then turned toward Tianming. Grandmother is a woman too. You cant trick me. While theres nothing now, those two ladies are completely devoted to you and willing to do anything you ask.
Dammit. My grandmother noticed my blasted overflowing charm! Tianming sighed.
You little punk! I hate playboys like you the most.
So does Grandmother think its good or bad? Tianming asked.
Good, its very good.
Dongshen Yue had clearly misunderstood something, but that was fine. The misunderstanding would make the elders treat Xiaoxiao and Moran much better.
Let me ask you something, Dongshen Yue coughed.
Please do, Tianming said.
Its like this.... If they want to stay in the Lin Clan to cultivate and use its resources, they must have an ident.i.ty belonging to the Lin Clan. Linger is fine, as shes our clans daughter-in-law, but the other two wont be able to access the core resources if theyre just servants. Im asking hypotheticallythis is a complete hypotheticalbut would they be willing to accept the ident.i.ty of your concubines for now? The SwordG.o.d Lin Clans rules just happen to limit it at one wife and two concubines, so you have three spots, Dongshen Yue guided.
Wont be a problem. Tianming nodded.
Really? Im asking you if theyll agree.
Of course they will, Tianming said.
How are you so sure? Dongshen Yue suspiciously asked.
Look at my face, Tianming said.
What? Dongshen Yue was confused.
This blasted overflowing charm of mine!
You rascal! Dongshen Yue wasnt sure whether to laugh or cry. She hadnt felt this amused for a very long time. She had been stewing in pain and helplessness for a century. Suddenly, a grandson had popped out of nowhere in her twilight years! He didnt seem very reliable, but he had indeed brought true joy. Are you sure theyll be fine?
They will be. Tianming knew they would be completely fine with a temporary ident.i.ty to grow in Ebonia. It was very normal for the SwordG.o.d Lin Clan to have rules, as they were a clan style faction, so they would have strict rules about family inheritances and management. Being servants would make their path ahead very hard and make it very easy for them to be bullied.
Then its settled! Were they all born on your skypiercer-cla.s.s world? Dongshen Yue doubtfully asked.
Yes!
Looks like your world is quite interesting. Bring Grandmother over for a trip when were free so I can see your path of growth, Dongshen Yue said.
No problem! Tianming said. Who knew when they would ever be free anyway.
Fenger, go tell them about the concubine matter. Explain clearly! Dongshen Yue urged.
It seems that their talent has completely convinced you, Tianming laughed.
Nonsense. Those ladies are all a thousand times stronger than you. Nurture them well and theyll s.h.i.+eld you in the future, giving you a comfortable life. From tomorrow onward, Ill personally guide them in cultivating. Dongshen Yue rolled her eyes.
Tianming wasnt worried about the threes future when he saw how impatient Dongshen Yue was.
Tianming went over to tell them about the matter. They werent unreasonable, as they knew getting a foothold in the SwordG.o.d Lin Clan wasnt an easy thing. They wouldnt even have a path forward if the two grandparents hadnt appeared.
Linger, is it okay? Tianming asked with a soft tone.
Of course! Im sure youre very happy inside right now, Feiling said.
Im not that kind of person! Tianming said.
You already are in the eyes of your grandparents.
As time pa.s.ses, theyll naturally understand how devoted I am.
Feiling didnt really mind, as the three were quite familiar with each other and had even shared weal and woe together this time, thus strengthening their bond.
Alright, Lin Laoer, help the kids settle down. Ill go update the Clan Registry and bring back Lin Clan disciple cards, Dongshen Yue said.
Those cards are the proof of your ident.i.ty as a member of the clan, which will allow you to move freely in the Infinitum Swordsea, as well as cultivate, battle, and rise, Lin Xiao further explained.
Understood. For now, they just had to listen to Tianmings grandparents arrangements.
Since youre one family, you can live together in one hall. Ill bring you over. No one has been to Brokensword Peak for very long, so theres dust everywhere.
Grandfather, can we have two halls? Xiaoxiao gingerly asked.
Yes, you can!
Clearly, Xiaoxiao and Moran didnt want to get in the way of Tianming and Feilings lovey dovey time. The two had already made a plan to be cultivation maniacs from now on!
The two halls chosen were on the newer side and a quick sweep made them livable.
Tianming left them to get settled in while he stayed by Lin Xiaos side. Grandfather, so many exciting things have happened to Ebonia, but I honestly still dont even know what my father did. Can you explain it to me? That was an important matter, and he could tell that Dongshen Yue didnt really want to talk about it.
That matter? Remembering it was actually quite painful for the two elders, which was why they werent willing to try. Checking Tianmings talent and helping them get settled in was looking forward, but looking backward only brought pain.
However, Tianming had the right to know. Hence, Lin Xiao sighed and waved to Tianming. Come, lets have tea.
The two sat down in a pavilion.
