She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement Chapter 370 - Awkward Scene

Chapter 370: Awkward Scene

In order to verify if Caro Zhengyang was that person, Kong Qing decided to do something personally. “Father, later, I’ll congratulate Caro Zhengyang on your behalf.”

Lin Jiansheng revealed a look of hesitation.

Kong Qing was a super monster. If he suddenly lost control of his energy when facing Caro Zhengyang, then his ident.i.ty as a super monster would definitely be exposed.

At that time, the cultivation world would definitely clamor to get rid of the super monster, and Su Xuanye definitely wouldn’t let Kong Qing off.

At the thought of this, Lin Jiansheng rejected Kong Qing on the spot. “No, your ident.i.ty can’t be exposed. Kong Qing, if your ident.i.ty as a monster is exposed, those people will kill you.”

Kong Qing said, “Dad, trust me. I can control myself.”

“… I don’t trust you.”

“Believe me.”

As he was stared at by Kong Qing with his clear eyes, Lin Jiansheng’s heart gradually softened. “Then promise me that you won’t lose control in front of Caro Zhengyang.”

“I promise you, Daddy!”

“Okay.”

The aircraft was even faster than the plane. They only flew at sea for more than twenty minutes before they could see the island where the Caro Clan was.

The size of the island in the sky was comparable to more than half the size of the Prosperous Capital. On the island, all the houses were built along the mountain. The buildings were gilded, and white jade covered the road. It was clean and spotless.

The flying transport stopped on the special flying platform for the island in the sky.

The guests alighted from the aircraft and took the island’s electric car to the banquet hall.

The electric car drove along the asphalt road on the island for more than half an hour before stopping in front of a gorgeous golden heptagon building. This building looked like a heptagon from the sky. The building was seven stories high, and in the middle of the building was a gorgeous and exquisite courtyard.

Tonight’s birthday banquet was going to be held in the courtyard.

There were tables in all seven directions of the courtyard. Each banquet table had ten seats, and the names of the guests were placed on the seats.

The Caro Clan was rich and would hold one or two grand occasions every year. The servants of the Caro Clan were also well-trained in handling such grand occasions.

When the guests arrived, a servant came forward and led them to their respective seats.

Yu Huang’s family of five sat at the same table as Lin Jiansheng and his son. Saint Xuan Ye, Yin Mingchong, and his wife sat at the same table.

When Yu Huang and the others arrived, Yin Mingchong and Madam Yin had already sat down.

Yin Mingchong was also wearing a suit today. His young and beautiful wife was wearing a light pink dress, and she looked to be at most in her early twenties. When she sat with Yin Mingchong, they didn’t look like husband and wife, but more like father and daughter.

Sheng Xiao saw that Yu Huang was looking at Yin Mingchong’s wife. He whispered to Yu Huang, “Yin Fu’s mother pa.s.sed away ten years ago. This wife was adopted by Grand Master Yin six years ago.” After a pause, Sheng Xiao added, “She’s 25 years old this year.”

Yu Huang was shocked. She said, “Then she was only 19 years old when she got together with Yin Mingchong?”

“Yeah.”

“Impressive.”

When he noticed Sheng Lingfeng and his family walking over, Yin Mingchong quickly held his young wife’s hand and stood up. He greeted them with a smile, “Patriarch Sheng, Madam Sheng, Saint Ling Xiao, and Saint Xuan Ye, what a coincidence. We’re at the same table today!”

Xuan Ye nodded and pulled out a stool to sit down.

Lin Jiansheng snorted sarcastically at Yin Mingchong before sitting down with Kong Qing in his arms. Sheng Lingfeng smiled and nodded. Then, he said to the three children behind him, “Aren’t you going to greet Grand Master Yin?”

Sheng Xiao, Yu Huang, and Sheng Yang bowed and greeted Yin Mingchong. “Greetings, Grand Master Yin.”

“Everyone, sit!”

Everyone sat down.

Kong Qing picked up his chopsticks and reached out to turn the gla.s.s plate on the table. He transferred a plate of snacks cooked with demon beast innards to him.

He placed a few pieces of internal organs into the bowl and raised his head to see that the young woman by Yin Mingchong’s side was sizing him up with a curious gaze.

Kong Qing put down his chopsticks and said to the woman, “Sis, do you want to eat too? If you want to eat, you can ask your father to pick it up for you.”

Kong Qing treated Madam Yin as Yin Mingchong’s daughter.

Everyone at the table was speechless.

Lin Jiansheng felt so embarra.s.sed that he wanted to find a hole to hide in. He hurriedly picked up a piece of internal organs and stuffed it into Kong Qing’s mouth. He told him in a low voice, ” You have to call her Madam Yin. Madam Yin is Grand Master Yin’s lover.”

Kong Qing blinked and hurriedly apologized seriously, “I’m sorry, Madam Yin. I saw that you were young and beautiful, so I thought you were Grand Master Yin’s daughter.”

This sincere apology caused Yin Mingchong’s expression to become even more unsightly.

The young Sheng Yang had yet to learn to control her emotions. She burst into laughter when she heard Kong Qing’s sincere apology. Mrs. Sheng quickly pinched Sheng Yang’s waist, and Sheng Yang stopped laughing.

Yin Mingchong glared at Lin Jiansheng with some resentment. He said eccentrically, “I’ve long heard that Saint Ling Xiao and a commoner woman had a one-night stand and got a beloved son. At first, I even doubted the authenticity of the rumors. After seeing this child, I finally believe that the rumors are true.”

“This child’s personality is really the same as Saint Ling Xiao’s. Even his words are the same. How interesting.” It was simply impossible for him to say anything nice!

Lin Jiansheng’s expression didn’t change. He smiled and replied, “He’s just a child. What bad intentions can a child have? He’s just saying whatever he thinks.”

“What do you mean?!” Yin Mingchong’s gaze was gloomy.

Lin Jiansheng chuckled and put down his chopsticks. He mocked Yin Mingchong. “Yin Mingchong, you found a little girl who’s only five years older than your daughter to be your second wife. You did such a wicked thing, but you don’t allow others to talk about it?”

Yin Mingchong immediately retorted, “Are you better than me? You’re promiscuous and can’t control your lower body, and can’t afford a contraceptive T. Now that an illegitimate child has appeared, you still have the cheek to criticize me?”

“Say that again!” Lin Jiansheng pointed his chopsticks at Yin Mingchong.

Seeing that the two enemies were about to argue, Sheng Lingfeng hurriedly tried to persuade them. “Please calm down. Today is Senior Caro Zhengyang’s 800th birthday. If this matter blows up, he will be unhappy.”

Upon hearing this, the two of them thought of Caro Zhengyang and immediately regained their composure.

Even though they were somewhat unwilling, they could only restrain themselves and pretend to be indifferent. They were all people with status and reputation, so they had to consider the overall situation.

Yu Huang drank the water and sized up Madam Yin. She realized that the young Madam Yin was very composed. Even though she had just been humiliated by Lin Jiansheng, she was still smiling, as if she didn’t mind at all.

Her composure was extraordinary!

Sheng Yang suddenly leaned close to Yu Huang’s ear and whispered, “Fortunately, we didn’t arrange for Madam Xiangsi to sit with us. Otherwise, tsk tsk, we wouldn’t be able to celebrate his birthday tonight.”

Yu Huang imagined that scene and immediately felt a headache.

At this moment, someone at the next table was discussing something in a low voice. Because it was close, the voice naturally reached Yu Huang’s table.

“Have you heard? Kui Mountain hasn’t been peaceful recently!”

“Huh? Kui Mountain? Are you talking about the Su family’s Kui Mountain?”

“That’s right, it’s that Kui Mountain!”

“Why is Kui Mountain not peaceful?”

“I heard that recently, the soul of a powerful woman appeared near Kui Mountain. This soul cried every day near Kui Mountain, as if it had grievances to complain about. The civilians living near Kui Mountain were infected by this resentment and many people have been sick recently.”

“No way. To be able to affect the souls of living people, she must have been a powerful female cultivator when she was alive. But was there a powerful female cultivator near Kui Mountain?”

Everyone at the table was silent for a few seconds before someone suddenly whispered, “Have you all forgotten that the famous Purifying Spirit Grand Master Su Tingxue was born on Kui Mountain?!”

“Huh? But after Su Tingxue was beheaded in public back then, her body was thrown into the Black Dome! Logically speaking, Su Tingxue’s soul should have already dissipated.”

“Unless Su Tingxue’s obsession is too deep, and the Black Dome didn’t manage to crush her bones and scatter her ashes, so she loitered around Kui Mountain with hatred in her heart. If her obsession isn’t resolved, the vengeful spirits won’t disperse.”

Hearing this, the surrounding people who were listening to the gossip were shocked.

Obsession? Vengeful spirit? What kind of injustice did Su Tingxue suffer when she was alive?

Someone secretly looked at Saint Xuan Ye.

Saint Xuan Ye was Su Tingxue’s disciple and the Young Master of the Su Clan of Kui Mountain. Su Tingxue was the enemy who had destroyed the Su Clan. If Su Tingxue’s soul hadn’t dispersed, what would Saint Xuan Ye do?

Su Xuanye’s expression was calm, but he was shocked inside. Was that person’s soul so powerful? It had been 600 years, but her soul had yet to dissipate?

Seeing Su Xuanye pretending to be calm, Lin Jiansheng secretly took a sip of wine and thought to himself, ‘The people are so powerful! They have made up for everything that he thought of and didn’t think of!’
