Chapter 676: Socialite and Noblewoman
“Yang of the Yang Family Generals…” Song Qingshu silently repeated the name in his heart. In his past life, the Yang Family Generals were well-known, whether in novels, television dramas, or comic books. The Yang family was renowned for its loyalty and valor. Since this woman in the yellow robe hailed from the Yang family, it was likely that she had close ties to the Southern Song court.
However, Song Qingshu’s attention soon shifted elsewhere. Compared to the Yang Family Generals, the female generals of the Yang family were even more famous—valiant women left widowed when their husbands perished on the battlefield, leaving behind a house full of beautiful young widows…
Judging by the appearance of the woman in the yellow robe, the Yang family’s women were undoubtedly beauties. Should he consider “rescuing” them?
His mind wandered wildly with all sorts of improper thoughts, making even himself feel a bit disgusted. Wasn’t this a little too beastly? His father’s fate was still uncertain!
But Song Qingshu quickly cast aside these concerns. After all, he was not the real Song Qingshu. He had never even met Song Yuanqiao, let alone developed any deep familial bond. Doing his best to rescue him was already an act of great kindness. If he had to suppress all thoughts of women just because of Song Yuanqiao’s predicament, then that was something Song Qingshu would never agree to.
As for whether seducing the Yang family women would be an affront to the fallen heroes, Song Qingshu had never even considered it. First, those warriors were nothing more than legends to him. Second, he had no intention of using force—if both parties were willing, what was there to feel guilty about? On the contrary, forcing a group of beautiful women to live out their days as widows seemed rather unfair to them in his view.
“Abbot Xuan Ci, I apologize for any offense tonight. Qingshu, we are leaving,” Zhang Sanfeng called out again when he saw Song Qingshu lost in thought. If he had known what was going through his grand-disciple’s mind at that moment, even with his deep cultivation, he might have been tempted to beat him up on the spot.
Xuan Ci hesitated but ultimately decided against using the monastery’s full force to detain them. However, his displeasure was evident as he responded coldly, “I won’t see you off!”
As the two figures gradually disappeared into the darkness, Kong Wen couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Brother, are we really just going to let them leave?”
