Chapter 1737 Side Story 2: Prime Master Yin Mingjue Pursues His Wife (6)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
When they arrived at the Beast Tamer Alliance Meeting, they were told by the young man at the front desk of the Beast Tamer Alliance Meeting. “I’m sorry, but tomorrow is the day of the Beast Tamer Awakening Ceremony in Jingdu City, so the staff of the Beast Tamer Alliance’s testing department have been assigned to various cities for business trips. Why don’t you go to the venue for the test tomorrow?”
Upon hearing this, Mr. Dong’s face was filled with disappointment, but what Sheng Shi’an had said last night appeared in Xu Qingtian’s mind.
“Okay.”
...
After leaving the Beast Tamer Alliance, Xu Qingtian took out his phone and applied for leave from his teacher. Mr. Dong said regretfully, “Sigh, it’s a pity that we can’t do the test today. Otherwise, when Eldest Young Master returns to the Xu family tonight, they will definitely be shocked.”
Xu Qingtian shook his head and said, “It’s fine.”
“Today is the 15th, right?” Mr. Dong said, “It’s time for the Xu family’s gathering again.” The Xu family had started growing from the old man’s grandfather’s generation. After nearly 200 years of growth, there were already more than a hundred people in the Xu family.
On the 15th of every month, the Xu family would come to the Xu family’s old residence to hold a family banquet to bond.
On this day, other than the big shots who were performing, everyone else was present.
Xu Qingtian was naturally there as well.
Every time there was a family banquet, Xu Qingtian would be compared to Xu Xingguang by his relatives.
Compared to the worried Mr. Dong, Xu Qingtian seemed calmer. “It’s fine. They can’t eat me.” They only ignored him and didn’t insult him, so they were considered well-mannered.

At night, the Xu family’s main residence was brightly lit. The men, women, old, and young of the Xu family gathered together.
As an art family, the Xu family’s pursuit of perfection in art had reached a shocking level. Their pursuit of beauty was also quite high. Similarly, when they chose their spouses, they were also very strict.
In the Xu family, there would never be the situation of a handsome man falling in love with a ‘Cinderella’ or a beautiful woman falling in love with a ‘Beast’. The Xu family liked everything beautiful and gorgeous. Their spouses were also beautiful people who had achieved success in their careers.
Xu Qingtian had dinner outside before rushing to the banquet.
When Xu Qingtian arrived at the banquet, most of the Xu family members had already arrived. Xu Qingtian walked towards his parents as he greeted, “Dad, Mom.”
After Xu Langge and Zhou Qingzi turned around, they saw Xu Qingtian in a casual shirt and pants. They immediately revealed displeased expressions. Zhou Qingzi said, “Why didn’t you even change your clothes?” The Xu family’s banquet was luxurious and grand. Who wasn’t wearing luxurious clothes?
Xu Qingtian was wearing a loose shirt and suit pants. In the eyes of the Xu family, who pursued exquisiteness and perfection, this outfit was out of place.
However, they didn’t give Xu Qingtian a chance to explain. They said to Xu Qingtian, “Director Su was invited to the gathering today. He’s recently preparing to film a fantasy movie. Your image matches the protagonist very well. Come talk to Director Su.”
Xu Langge and his wife still wanted to turn Xu Qingtian into a dazzling celebrity.
Since he didn’t have any artistic talent, he could join the entertainment industry. At least, his face could be considered a work of art.
Xu Qingtian wanted to retort, but he was pulled over by them.
Mo Kesu was a white-haired old man in his sixties. He already had a high status in the film industry, but in order to participate in the Xu family’s banquet and obtain the support of the Xu family, he still spent a lot of effort. He came today to give Xu Qingtian a chance, so that he could build a relationship with the Xu family.
When he saw Xu Qingtian, Mo Kesu smiled very politely and held Xu Qingtian’s hand as he said with a smile, “This is the Eldest Young Master, right?”
Xu Qingtian nodded politely. “Hello, Director Mo Kesu.”
After Mo Kesu sized up Xu Qingtian from head to toe, he said to Xu Langge and his wife with a fervent smile, “A few days ago, many male actors came to try out. I originally thought that two of them were already very impressive. However, after seeing Young Master Xu today, I suddenly feel that he is the Zhou Ke I want.”
Zhou Ke was the young male protagonist of Mo Kesu’s new movie.
In fact, this fantasy movie was created by Mo Kesu in order to obtain the support of the Xu family and he specifically asked the screenwriter to create the character with Xu Qingtian’s appearance in mind.
The male lead of this movie could only be Xu Qingtian.
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingtian and his wife smiled. “Is that so? In that case, it seems that our child is suitable for this role.”
Zhou Qingzi squeezed Xu Qingtian’s forearm and hinted to him, “Tiantian, can you talk to Director Mo Kesu in detail?”
However, Xu Qingtian said, “It’s very late, so let’s talk another day. Tomorrow is the Beast Tamer Awakening Test Ceremony. This year, I plan to participate in the Beast Tamer Test Ceremony, so I want to rest early.”
The Xu family, who had been listening to their conversation, fell silent for a moment.
Director Mo Kesu’s expression also became strange.
Xu Langge and Zhou Qingzi were also stunned.
Even Xu Xingguang, who was chatting with his uncle and auntie, couldn’t help but look at Xu Qingtian in surprise.
The Xu family had given birth to countless big shots in the art world, but they had never given birth to a Beast Tamer. To them, Beast Tamers were a legendary profession that lived in another world. In the art world, as long as you worked hard, you could achieve results.
However, if one wanted to become a Beast Tamer and step into the cultivation world, it wasn’t something that could be done with just hard work and connections.
For a moment, the surrounding Xu family members looked at Xu Qingtian.
They looked at him playfully.
Could it be that this child had received too much of a blow and was spouting nonsense to gain attention?
For a moment, Mo Kesu didn’t know how to answer.
After Xu Langge came back to his senses, he stared at Xu Qingtian warningly and said, “Tiantian, what nonsense are you spouting?”
Xu Qingtian wasn’t afraid of his father at all. He said, “According to the laws of the Divine Moon Empire, every child should actively participate in every year’s Beast Tamer Awakening Test Ceremony after they reach the age of ten. Dad, I’m already 15 years old this year, so I should participate in the Test Ceremony. What do you think?”
He mentioned the laws of the Divine Moon Empire directly.
With so many people watching, could Xu Langge go against the law?
His smile faded a little, and his tone was unpleasant as he said, “There has never been a Beast Tamer in the Xu family. Even your grandfather didn’t become a Beast Tamer back then. Are you really planning to participate in the test? Tiantian, the Xu family lives under the spotlight, and every move of the Xu family is in the public eye. Are you sure you want to participate in the Beast Tamer Awakening Ceremony?”
Xu Langge had already made himself clear.
He was telling Xu Qingtian that if he insisted on participating in the awakening ceremony but didn’t successfully awaken his beast form, he would be ridiculed by the media. The Xu family would also be embarrassed.
Xu Qingtian said, “Every year, there are as many children participating in the Beast Tamer Awakening Ceremony test as there are hairs on an ox, but how many children can successfully awaken their beast form? It’s not embarrassing.” He lowered his eyes and looked at the dirt on his sneakers. Then, he raised his head and looked straight at Xu Langge and his wife fearlessly for the first time as he said bravely, “I know that you guys are biased. I know that if I continue to remain silent, I will live the rest of my life in obscurity. If I’m willing to accept mediocrity, that would be truly embarrassing.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Langge and his wife’s expressions changed on the spot.
Xu Xingguang’s gaze changed slightly, and the way he looked at his brother became strange.
Interesting.
Xu Xingguang’s brother had always been quiet. He didn’t fight or compete for things. He clearly wanted the love of his parents, but he always stood in the distance and watched them quietly.
Xu Xingguang knew that her parents favored him and ignored his brother.
But he didn’t think there was anything wrong with that.
It was his fault for not fighting for his parents’ love.
Today, he finally saw his brother stand up for himself. For the first time, Xu Xingguang felt impressed by his brother.
“Tiantian, what nonsense are you spouting?” Zhou Qingzi felt embarrassed.
Xu Qingtian didn’t believe that they didn’t understand what he was saying. He lowered his eyes and looked at his mother as he said calmly, “Dad, Mom, I’m not jealous that you guys favor my brother, but please don’t stop me from shining.”
If no one lit the lamp for him, he would burn it himself.
He could no longer accept mediocrity.
The existence of the woman in red became his motivation to join the cultivation world.
He wanted to find her, figure out her identity, and figure out their relationship.
In the past, whenever he raised his head, his gaze would never leave the Xu family’s high wall courtyard. But now, he suddenly wanted to jump out of the high wall courtyard to see how vast the sky was and how magnificent the mountains were.
