Chapter 155: An Engagement between Huang and Guo Family

Marshal Haotian was a Xiantian Second Order expert, and not an average second order expert at that, yet he was still unable to execute a swift win over Huang Xiaolong.

This was the scariest point of all!

Furthermore, what was Huang Xiaolong’s age? He would soon be seventeen after the New Year in ten days, right?!

Marshal Haotian was someone that had over a hundred years of cultivation experience!

Though Huang Xiaolong’s battle qi was still in the peak late-Tenth Order stage, if his battle qi also advanced into the Xiantian realm, it was possible that Marshal Haotian might not even be Huang Xiaolong’s opponent at that time!

On this day, Huang Xiaolong was training in the yard with Fei Hou and Marshal Haotian when his younger sister suddenly burst into the yard, calling Huang Xiaolong out.

“Big brother, Mom and Dad called for you at the main hall.” Huang Min said, and a peculiar blush tinged her cheeks after saying so.

“Calling me to the main hall? What’s the matter?” Huang Xiaolong felt it was odd watching his sister’s reaction, thus he asked.

Huang Min’s head bowed so low that the tip of her nose nearly touched her chest, “Guo Tai is here.”

“Guo Tai?” Huang Xiaolong was surprised, and then he chuckled; no wonder his little sister would come to call for him in person. Normally, his mother and father would send a servant to inform him if they were looking for him.

“Big brother, let’s go quickly, people have been waiting for half an hour in the main hall.” Huang Min stressed, and she swiftly dragged Huang Xiaolong by the hand towards the main hall.

Huang Xiaolong had a powerless expression on his face as he looked over at Fei Hou and Marshal Haotian, “Let’s end today’s sparring here, we’ll continue again tomorrow.”

“Yes, Young Lord!” Both of them acknowledged respectfully.

Huang Xiaolong walked to the main hall ‘led’ by Huang Min pulling him by the hand.

Even before he entered the main hall, the amiable laughter and the sounds of talking could be heard. Other than his parents and younger brother, Huang Xiaohai, there was a voice of a young man he had never heard before.

When Huang Xiaolong and Huang Min walked into the hall, everyone inside looked over in their direction. When the unfamiliar young man saw Huang Xiaolong, he practically jumped up from his seat. It was clear from his mannerisms that he was extremely nervous.

The young man had clean cut features, arched brows, and a rounded button nose; all in all, a dashing young man. When compared with Huang Xiaolong, that young man exuded a less dominant aura, more of one with gentlemanly elegance and refinement.

This young man was Guo Tai.

Guo Tai knew of Huang Xiaolong’s fame. When he first met Huang Min, he had no idea that Huang Min was Huang Xiaolong’s younger sister, and he did not deliberately have Huang Min’s identity and background investigated. Two months ago, Guo Tai was greatly shocked when Huang Min told him that her Big Bro was Tianxuan Mansion’s Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong was Luo Tong Kingdom’s renowned number one monstrous genius that his father spoke of often, telling him to make Huang Xiaolong his goal.

Watching as Huang Xiaolong and Huang Min walked in, a clumsy and nervous Guo Tai quickly took a few steps forward, calling out: “Big brother!”

Guo Tai was actually the same age as Huang Xiaolong but he was younger by two months, so he followed Huang Min’s example and called Huang Xiaolong big brother.

Under normal circumstances, Guo Tai, as a member of one of Duanren Empire’s big families and grandson to the current Guo Family’s Patriarch, would not feel so nervous even when meeting a Duanren Empire’s Duke, but Huang Xiaolong was an exception.

This was because Huang Xiaolong was someone he worshipped.

Huang Xiaolong looked at Guo Tai, nodded slightly and said with a faint smile, “Take a seat.”

“Thanks Big brother.” Guo Tai returned to his seat.

Huang Xiaolong and Huang Min also sat down.

Huang Xiaolong’s seat was lateral to his parents’ seat whereas Huang Min sat in the seat next to Guo Tai.

Studying Guo Tai opposite of him, Huang Xiaolong nodded inwardly in satisfaction. From his first impression, the impression this Guo Tai gave him was not bad… at least he showed none of the noble children’s unwarranted proud arrogance and impudence.

The few of them continued to talk happily in the main hall with bouts of cheery laughter ringing out from time to time.

At first, Guo Tai acted a little reserved. However, as time wore on with the jokes and laughter, he gradually relaxed, but his respect and idolization towards Huang Xiaolong was evident in his words and actions.
