C10 Private School Graduation

Not long after, Ming Jiutian finished the entire jar of Vermillion Woman. If it was any other person, they would have already lost consciousness after drinking so much wine. However, Ming Jiutian was still as calm as ever.

"Alright, it's time to drink. I'll go to the backyard to play with Xiaowu for a while. I wonder if this stupid bird is still around." Ever since Lao Yuan left, he had left Xiaowu in the Ming family. Over the past ten years, the Ming family had treated Xiaowu well and fed him well. Xiaowu was also very happy. Over the past ten years, he had been very stable.

"Going to the backyard is fine, but don't go to your aunt's courtyard. She needs to recuperate now." The old marshal could not worry anymore. None of his four children could make him feel at ease.

Ming Qifan was originally a very lively and cute girl who liked to travel the world and play in the martial arts world. In the past, the old marshal was worried about his daughter's safety, so he sent Mo Yunfei, who was the strongest among his guards, to serve as a guard for Ming Qifan.

After wandering the martial arts world for a few years, the two of them fell in love with each other. Unfortunately, ten years ago, according to the marriage agreement between the Ming family and the Imperial Family, Ming Qifan was going to marry Hanlin Emperor as a concubine. On the day of the emperor's wedding, he was told that Ming Qifan was already two months pregnant.

Pitiful. The poor Hanlin Emperor had been cheated on before he could marry his wife. It was truly intolerable. Even if his uncle could endure it, his uncle could not.

Thus, a decree was issued to capture Mo Yunfei. At that time, Mingqi Fan also begged the old marshal to let Mo Yunfei go. If it wasn't for the fact that he was forced to die, his daughter would have really gone crazy.

Although his father had promised not to kill his beloved, Hanlin Emperor did not agree. If this matter that damaged the face of the imperial family was spread out, he would become a laughingstock.

In the end, the emperor sent out heavy troops to encircle Mo Yunfei. If Mingqi Fan did not force him to die at the last moment, the old marshal had no choice but to save Mo Yunfei's life. His daughter would have died a miserable death.

Because of the old marshal's face, Hanlin Emperor had no choice but to compromise. Even so, Hanlin Emperor still did not completely stop. Since he could not force Mo Yunfei to do anything, then he would do something insidious. Originally, Mo Yunfei was only a personal guard of the old marshal, but he was suddenly given the order to be made a general of the border. The next day, he was sent to the northern border of Hanlin to guard.

Furthermore, he clearly stated that he was not allowed to leave without an imperial decree. In fact, everyone knew that the northern border was always in a state of war. Not only did the cavalry of Morton Royal Court frequently harass the people at the border, there was also the dangerous Void Forest. If one stayed in such a place for a long time, the chances of survival were almost zero.

However, the imperial edict could not be violated. If he did, he would die. Therefore, he could only brace himself and rush to the battlefield. He had been gone for ten years. He left Ming Qifan and his widow to wait at home. Ming Qifan was no longer the beautiful and lively girl from back then. Instead, she became depressed because of this matter.

"Don't worry, I understand." Ming Jiutian was also speechless. Ever since he had memories, his aunt had been locked in that courtyard. Other than the busy people, this aunt never said a word. Instead, she became crazy and often talked to herself.

"Da Da Da... Xiaowu, are you there? Come out and play..." After passing through a corridor, Ming Jiutian came to the back garden. Xiaowu usually liked to stay in the back garden.

"I'm here. I heard that you graduated today. I especially prepared a small gift and a roast meat to celebrate your success in your studies. What do you think?" At this moment, a boy with red hair of about eight or nine years old ran over.

Xiaowu was a bird that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years. It was unbelievable that he would call a human fifteen years old big brother. Actually, it was not for any other reason. Once, when the two of them were bored, they played a game of shooting balls at home. The two of them agreed that the loser had to call the winner big brother. In the end, Xiaowu lost miserably and made an oath that he would be the big brother for the rest of his life.

"That's right. After graduating today, I might have more time to play with you in the future. Where's the gift? Quickly give it to me so that I can see it!" Ming Jiutian also acted like a big brother. Although he was not very big, he actually put on the airs of a big brother.

"Big brother, please take a look. This thing is for you. Isn't it embarrassing?" As he spoke, Xiaowu took out a fist-sized blue crystal from his bosom. Although Ming Jiutian did not have any cultivation, he could still feel the waves of energy coming from the blue crystal.

"What is this? Why do I feel so comfortable touching it?" It was also strange that such a stone-like thing actually made people feel relaxed and at ease when they touched it.

"This is the inner core of a Rank Nine Demon Beast, the Cloud Piercing Eagle. I was bored and went to the mountain to play, but this arrogant guy actually wanted to ambush me from behind. In my anger, I directly roasted him. Ugh... It's the roast meat that I invited you to eat. Hmm... The taste is not bad. I don't care, but it's different for you. If you eat it, it will be very beneficial to your body!" Xiaowu said flatteringly.

"If the taste is okay, can you call Grandfather, Tu Ling, and Hu Yuan to eat together? There are so many of them. I can't finish them all by myself!" Although it was said that it was the meat of the Cloud Piercing Eagle, not many people had actually seen the real Cloud Piercing Eagle. At this moment, Ming Jiutian stood in front of the roasted Cloud Piercing Eagle and realized that the body of the Cloud Piercing Eagle could be comparable to a three-story building.

"Big brother, you can do whatever you want. It won't rot here. Anyway, I'm tired and I need to go back to sleep." After saying that, Xiaowu turned into a small bird and flew into the bird's nest on a big tree in the back garden.

The next morning, Ming Jiutian was woken up by his grandfather when the sky had just lit up. He was told that he had to discuss something important about life today. He knew that the female disciple from the Calmness Buddhist Temple was going to discuss marriage with him. Although he was not very willing, it was still arranged by his grandfather and grandmother. Ming Jiutian did not want to make his grandfather and grandmother unhappy because of him.

"Red Lotus Martial Grandma from the Calmness Buddhist Temple is going to bring her most proud female disciple to our house to discuss your marriage. You should dress up a little more and go out. Don't embarrass your grandfather!" The old marshal stood outside the door and shouted!

"Hey, old man, do you know that shouting and yelling outside the door early in the morning is very impolite? I don't know which part of you my grandma fancied back then?" Although he was not very willing, he still got up because his parents were not around since he was young. Therefore, Ming Jiutian cared a lot about his family and friends.

"Stop talking nonsense. Back then, your grandma and I were in love. There was no need for parents to tell me what to do. Back then, your grandfather was also a handsome young man. I only needed to marry your grandma a few times and I was done with it. I was only eighteen years old that year, and I was not as tired as you are now!" The old marshal thought back to the past and was in high spirits.

"Reporting to Patriarch, Red Lotus Martial Grandma has arrived." Tu Rui was still as taciturn as ever.

"Alright, I understand. Go and help me receive her first. I'll be right there." When he heard that Red Lotus Martial Grandma had arrived, the old marshal could not neglect her. It wasn't easy to come all the way here, not to mention that this time, it was about the future of his grandson.

"Yes, Patriarch." Tu Rui accepted the order and left.
