The Divine Doctor and Stay-at-home Dad

Chapter 716 Inner Contradictions

"Dad has something good for you."

Qin Haodong flipped his wrist and the Flaming Crystal appeared in his palm.

As a girl with the Suzaku Sacred Body, the little fellow was instinctively attracted to this tiny stone. She reached out and grabbed it.

If ordinary people held this stone, they would immediately be reduced to ashes. Even Qin Haodong had to wrap himself with Genuine Qi to avoid its heat.

But it was not a problem for Tang Tang; instead, she felt quite comfortable while holding this.

"Papa, this little stone is so cute. Could you please give it to me?"

The little fellow held the Flaming Crystal and did not want to put it down.

Qin Haodong said, "Tang Tang, this is not the proper way to use it. In fact, it can help you upgrade your flame."

"Really? Papa, please tell me how to use it."

She did not understand what it meant to upgrade, but she was sure that whatever her father would teach her, would definitely be the best.

Qin Haodong asked the little fellow to sit cross-legged, hold the Flaming Crystal in her left palm and then launch the mental cultivation method of the Eyes of Phoenix.

Eyes of Phoenix was a unique skill of the Yiyuan Sect and it was one of the Divine Techniques. It could be used from both sides. In a forward direction, it could spit out fire, while in the reverse direction, it could absorb all the energy of any fire property.

Situ Zhaixing passed this method to Qin Haodong and asked him to teach the little fellow how to use this. So he was extremely proficient in the use of its attributes.

Under his guidance, the little fellow began to hold her breath and operate her Qi to absorb the Flaming Crystal.

Qin Haodong stood quietly at the side, guarding his daughter.

As time passed by, the Flaming Crystal in her palm became smaller and finally, with a loud bang, it turned into a mass of powder. The hot energy inside had been completely absorbed by her.

She opened her eyes slowly and said to Qin Haodong excitedly, "Papa, there seems to be something in my body. It's warm and comfortable."

"That's because your flame has leveled up once again."

Qin Haodong set a defensive restriction on the walls of the practice room. Then he said to the little fellow, "Tang Tang, give it a try. See if the power of your flame has increased."

"Okay, Papa!"

She was still a kid and had long been eager to try it out. When Qin Haodong finished speaking, she immediately opened her mouth and spat out a phoenix-like flame.

Her flame had been increased to Innate Fire from ordinary flames. The color had also changed from red to the yellow of innate fire.

After absorbing the Flaming Crystal, her flame has been leveled up once again. Although it was not the blue Samadhi Real Fire yet, there was already a faint blue halo in the yellow flame. It seemed that Tang Tang would be able to have Samadhi Real Fire in a short time.

The most important part was that the flame's power had been considerably increased. After the fire was aimed at the wall, the restriction set by Qin was immediately reduced into ashes with a bang.

Fortunately, he was well prepared. He quickly removed the spell and set up three restriction formations in a row. Otherwise, the house would really be on fire.

"Okay, Tang Tang, that's enough."

Qin Haodong stopped the little fellow in a hurry. Now he was sure of the flame's power. If she launched a frontal attack, he might not last long even with his cultivation at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

It seemed that the upgrade was successful and Qin Haodong was quite happy with this result.

The little fellow was too young and immature, so he was not in a hurry to improve her cultivation.

But they could not just upgrade the flame whenever they wanted to. They had to seize each opportunity.

But her strength was still amazing. With the Eyes of Phoenix, she could defeat anyone who was under the ninth-level of the Supreme Power Realm by using all her strength.

Qin Haodong praised her and then told her she could not use the flame on people casually. Then they walked out of the practice room together.

After breakfast the next morning, everyone in the Tang Sect was very busy. Today was Chu Shanhe's 80th birthday. At the request of Chu Xuanyue, Qin Haodong decided to bring all the girls to the birthday party, including the little fellow.

After learning that they were going to the party, all the girls started making preparations after having breakfast. On the one hand, women were eager to show off their beauty, on the other hand, although they accepted the existence of the other girls, they would still compare themselves secretly with the others. To avoid being overshadowed, they dressed very meticulously.

When these girls appeared in front of him together, Qin Haodong actually felt dizzy but proud at the same time. Even the international model team was not as eye-catching as his women. They were all beautiful and had good figures.

After eight o'clock, a long fleet of cars drove into the Tang Sect. The leader was Chu Xuanli, followed by Chu Xuanming. They were there to welcome Chu Xuanyue back on behalf of the Chu family.

All those from the Tang Sect who were attending the party boarded the cars. According to Qin Haodong's request, the fleet did not drive directly back to the Chu family, but went around the capital.

Chu Xuanli had prepared more than a hundred cars and each of them was worth more than five million yuan. They immediately caused a sensation in the whole capital.

All the onlookers were curious and wanted to know what was happening. Soon, the news that Chu Xuanyue was being welcomed back by the Chu family was spread throughout the whole upper classes of the capital and many followed them to see the fun.

It was not until nine o'clock that the fleet slowly drove back to the Chu manor.

Chu Shanhe, dressed in a red Tang suit, was standing at the gate. Standing beside him were Chu Shanchuan and Chu Shanhe, followed by hundreds of disciples of the Chu family, including Chu Mingcong and Chu Mingjiao.

After standing for a few minutes, Chu Mingcong said with dissatisfaction, "He really thinks of himself as a big shot. How dare he make so many of us wait for him here? What is Grandpa is thinking? How could he agree to such an unreasonable request?"

Chu Mingjiao also said with sarcasm, "You're right. He's arrogant and shows no respect for his elders. He knows nothing about family rules and we should not let him walk into the house."

Although they did not mention any names, the people around them knew that they were talking about Qin Haodong.

Chu Mingli and Chu Minghui, who were standing beside them, were instantly irritated. They were more respectful toward Qin Haodong after the past few days.

Chu Mingli said, "Cousin, you're wrong. Aunt is a member of our Chu family and we betrayed her and drove her out of our house. It's only right that we bring her back now."

Although Chu Mingcong was Chu Xuanming's son, he was the eldest grandson of the Chu family because his mother gave birth to him first. Besides, he was also good at flattering others, so he was favored by the old lady, Jin Xiuying. That was why he was spoiled and was so arrogant now.

Seeing that Chu Mingli dared to contradict him in public, he immediately shouted and with a sullen face, said, "You just stayed in the Tang Sect for a few days, but you've become arrogant like that guy. I'm your elder brother, how dare you talk to me like that?"

Chu Minghui, who was also very direct, retorted angrily, "You're the one who is being arrogant now. Cousin Haodong is really capable. He built the Tang Sect at such a young age all by himself. But what can you do without the support of our family?"

Seeing her brother being humiliated, Chu Mingjiao then stepped forward and shouted rudely, "You silly girl, what do you know? You've just been there for a few days and you're already speaking up for that guy. Have you fallen in love with him? Shame on you!"

Chu Minghui was hot-tempered and she was not as restrained as her brother. She immediately retorted, "Chu Mingjiao, you're the one who's being shameless. Do you think everyone is as nasty as you? I know that you've already had more than a dozen of abortions and you're just in your twenties. Shame on YOU!"

Although Chu Mingjiao was not married yet, she was indiscreet about her private life. Chu Minghui was right. She had already had more than a dozen of abortions even though she was just in her twenties. Other people just talked about it in private, but Chu Minghui pointed it out in public. She was furious.

"You b*tch! How dare you!"

Noticing all the mocking gazes around her, Chu Mingjiao could no longer control herself. She lunged at Chu Minghui.

But Chu Minghui was already a seventh-level grand master now and Chu Mingjiao was no match for her. She raised her hand slightly and shoved Chu Mingjiao away. Her high-heeled shoes broke, her hair was disheveled and her face was coated with dirt. She looked just like a ghost now.

Chu Shanhe was thinking about how to please Qin Haodong when he came back. But he did not expect that some internal strife had already occurred.

Chu Mingcong was about to challenge Chu Minghui on behalf of his sister, but Chu Shanhe shouted angrily, "Stop!"

Seeing that their grandfather was really angry, the younger generation shivered and stood still without saying anything.

Chu Shanhe looked at Chu Minghui and Chu Mingjiao, "What's going on?"

Chu Minghui spoke up first, "Grandpa, they were humiliating cousin Haodong. I tried to stop them, but they worked together to beat me."

Chu Shanhe stared at Chu Mingjiao and Chu Mingcong coldly, "Is that so?"

Chu Mingjiao felt wronged. She had always been favored by Chu Shanhe, so she got up and shouted, "Grandpa, why did that bastard come back to our Chu family? What's wrong with what I said? How dare she beat me…"

But she flew back again before she could even finish her words. This time, she flew farther and fell even harder on the ground.

But it was Chu Shanhe who attacked her this time.

Chu Mingcong also wanted to say something, but he immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to say a word after realizing that his grandpa was really furious now.

Chu Shanhe had taken great efforts to bring Qin Haodong back to the Chu family and he would not allow these ignorant and stupid kids to destroy his plan. He said sternly, "Let me tell you, Qin Haodong is the grandson of our Chu family. No one is allowed to question him. If anyone dares to make trouble for him, I will drive him out of the Chu family."

After this incident, everyone was aware of Chu Shanhe's attitude. No one dared to show any disrespect toward Qin Haodong.

But this was merely a show only and most members of the Chu family rejected the return of Chu Xuanyue and her son, especially those who wanted to be the heir. They thought that Qin Haodong would be their biggest threat.

After a while, the fleet came back. Under everyone's eyes, Chu Shanhe went forward to open the car door personally and welcomed Chu Xuanyue out.

"Xuanyue, welcome back to the Chu family!"

Although she knew that her father was just putting on an act for her son, she was still touched when she saw the place where she had lived since she was a child. Tears welled up in her eyes.

Chu Xuanli said, "Well, this is not a good place for us to talk. Come in."

In the grand welcoming ceremony, Qin Haodong followed Chu Xuanyue to the Chu Manor together.
