Spring Hunting Ground, inside Tang Sen’s camp

“There’s a mission.” Tang Sen’s tone was particularly somber, tinged with a hint of struggle.

Xu Shuhui, who was casually reclining on the couch, snacking on some fruits, was sensitive to the difficulty implied in her husband’s voice. She sat up, because in her memory, she had never seen her husband in this state before She gently asked, “Is it difficult?”

“Very difficult.”

“Then… is it dangerous?”

“No.”

Difficult, but not dangerous. This answer puzzled Xu Shuhui, “Can I go with you?” From what she had experienced, it felt like they hadn’t been separated since they got together. Maybe the most difficult task for her husband was to leave her alone. If that was the case, she could accompany him.

Because for her, wherever this man was, that was home, not some fixed location.

Tang Sen looked at the woman in front of him, reached out his hand to touch her face and said, “Not this time.”

Xu Shuhui pouted, wrapped herself in the quilt, and then turned her back on him, saying, “Then you go!”

Tang Sen, clad in heavy armor, sighed and sat on the edge of the bed, scooping the quilt-wrapped woman entirely into his arms, revealing his remorseful face to her.

“Humph.” The woman inside the quilt wriggled, finding a more comfortable position, and asked, “How long will it take?”

Looking into Xu Shuhui’s eyes, Tang Sen hesitated, “Perhaps two months, possibly three, it won’t exceed five.”

Maybe it was only in front of this woman that a man of few words would say so much useless nonsense. But this clearly didn’t satisfy Xu Shuhui, because the time the man would be away was too long.

“You’re going to be gone for so long, yet it’s not dangerous, why can’t you take me with you?” Xu Shuhui got angry, banging her head against Tang Sen’s chest. Her head collided with the Fierce Qilin Heavy Earth Armour, leaving her slightly dizzy.

Her forehead throbbed with pain from the hit, and she closed her eyes tightly, wrinkling her nose and whimpering, “It hurts…”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Seeing the woman in his arms in pain, Tang Sen became flustered and quickly apologized, reaching out to rub her forehead.

The hand that could break mountains and split rocks was exceptionally gentle as it soothed the woman’s forehead, seeking to alleviate her pain.

Xu Shuhui’s face flushed crimson. She buried her head in the quilt, only leaving her forehead exposed to the man, and whimpered, “Come back early.”

’Alright.” Tang Sen readily agreed.

Hmm.” Xu Shuhui’s childish response came from under the bedding. She then nestled in the man’s arms, enjoying their quiet moment.

The faces of the two cuddling bodies were filled with happiness. It seemed as if as long as they held each other, even the end of the world would be alright, but people do have their own responsibilities.

“I have to go now.” Tang Sen’s voice was particularly soft, as if afraid to awaken the woman in his arms.

“Hmm ” A dissatisfied voice came from the quilt, “Hold me a little longer.” “Alright.”

After a while, the woman’s head emerged from the quilt. She straightened up, saying to the man, “Put me on the bed.” Tang Sen smiled and picked up the quilt-wrapped woman like a baby, gently placing her in the middle of the bed.

“You can go now.” Xu Shuhui commanded crisply, as if she no longer needed her husband because she had the bed and quilt.

Tang Sen softly chuckled, stood up, and left.

Tang Luo walked out of the Battle Hall and was about to request a consultation with Xu Shuhui about his seclusion when he ran into his father who was coming out of the camp.

“Father.” Tang Luo respectfully greeted him, but there was a hint of confusion in his eyes. As the First Head of the Martial Hall, he should be in the Martial Hall at this time, especially during the sensitive period of the Spring Hunt.

Seeing Tang Luo, the sorrow that Tang Sen had just put aside surged up again. He said, “Luo Er, no matter what happens in the future, family is always family.”

“Uh…” This nonsensical statement left Tang Luo somewhat confused, but he agreed with his father’s view on family sentiment, so he replied, “Of course, family is always the most important.”

Hearing Tang Luo’s answer, Tang Sen nodded, then asked, “Your mother is resting, what do you need her for?”

“I want to go into seclusion in a few days. I’m reporting this to mother.” Tang Luo said helplessly. For him, applying to Xu Shuhui was more difficult than dealing with the people in the Martial Hall. As a son who was required to come home once a month, he was very worried about his seclusion.

But who could have expected that his usually henpecked father, Tang Sen, would bravely take up this task, saying valiantly, “You go forth. I will discuss this matter with your mother.”

With these words, he turned and hurried back into the tent. His haste left Tang

Luo dumbfounded, “Didn’t he say… that mother was resting?”

Thanks to Tang Sen’s bravery, Tang Luo was able to skip the application process and smoothly begin preparations for his seclusion.

March 18th

The Tang Clan’s retreat was not set within the Martial Hall but was located behind the mountain at the back of the family’s headquarters. There were hundreds of secluded caverns fortified by spiritual arrays for the use of the clan’s warriors during their meditation.

Usually, a retreat was undertaken by warriors who were about to break through their realm. They needed a safe environment for the breakthrough, hence the creation of these secluded spots.

Therefore, in the hearts of the staff at the retreat, the warriors they welcomed were mostly middle-aged or even elderly people with white hair. They had never seen a warrior as young as Tang Luo.

So it was only after Tang Han had double-checked the application information that he stood up and said to Tang Luo, “Elder Luo, this way please.”

“Alright.” Tang Luo took back his name tag, his expression calm.

After all, if he were in their place and saw such a young Elder, he too would check a few more times, it was only natural.

Tang Han drove a beast carriage and brought Tang Luo to the top of a short mountain, pointing to a depression in the hill and saying, “Elder Luo, that recess over there is your training field. There is a Top-Grade Tai Sui in the room for your usage, and for drinking water, there is a fresh spring in this mountain. If there’s anything else you need, just activate the array in the room and someone will come. Do you have any other questions, Elder Luo?”

Tang Luo followed Tang Han’s finger. He could vaguely see a flattened path at the foot of the southern side of the mountain. He nodded and said, “No other questions, thank you.”

“Elder Luo is too courteous, then I’ll take my leave.”

After Tang Han had left, Tang Luo jumped down from the short mountain and headed for his own secluded spot.

The seclusion area he had applied for was an outdoor training room with a full set of stone locks and a hundred stone figures. Near the mountain spring, there was a thatched hut, and that was all.

In this uninhibited environment, Tang Luo could throw himself into vigorous training and freely strengthen his body.

With the metal scroll given by Tang Hongtao, coupled with some martial arts insights collected from the Scripture Pavilion, he believed that after this three-month period, he would be able to master at least one form of vigor.

Asura Martial Arts Hall

As one could imagine, the commotion of this hall won’t stop until Ji Fu, who had been watching Xu Lao Ying’s platform for several days, regains his’ confidence. Because he found that the strength shown by these family warriors now was the reasonable strength..
