Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 652 - 295, Whether to follow the path or not is just a matter of your thought.

Hou Yuxiao really didn't come to freeload; he brought a dowry with him. Hou Fei was now in an inn within the Prefectural City, watching over the dowry, ready to bring it over as soon as someone sent him a message.

After all, he was proposing to the Holy Land, and the marriage candidate was none other than Moxuzi, who was about to become the master of the Taishang Dao Lineage. Naturally, he couldn't afford to be shabby. Hou Yuduan had really splurged this time, preparing a total of six items: eight hundred taels of Mysterious Gold, eighteen first-class Spirit Pills, six Earth Level Martial Arts manuals, one Heaven Level Martial Arts manual, the Spiritual Artifact sword Qingyu Peak, and a hundred Minor Rejuvenation Pills prepared by Hou Yuxiao himself.

The first five items alone were worth at least fifteen million taels of gold. The last one hundred Minor Rejuvenation Pills, capable of enhancing one's martial arts realm and uniquely owned by the Hou Clan, were priceless, costing Hou Yuxiao one million taels of merit.

Honestly speaking, the dowry was definitely not light.

But compared to the two chests on the ground, it really wasn't worth mentioning!

Mysterious Gold worth eight hundred taels, a priceless fortune, and the Mysterious Realm Secret Record that even Moxuzi coveted. In fact, not only Moxuzi, Hou Yuxiao himself, looking at the dazzling golden light before him, showed greed in his eyes.

His dowry didn't even come close to being a drop in the ocean compared to theirs.

To present it would indeed be an embarrassment.

"Hahaha, Master of Hou Family indeed is a wise man. If you didn't bring a dowry, then don't embarrass yourself here. Roll back to your Hexi!"

Unfortunately, his well-thought-out considerations appeared to Hou Hong as a result of the intimidation they had just exerted, believing Hou Yuxiao either really couldn't offer a dowry as substantial as theirs or was genuinely afraid of them. Naturally, this bred even more disdain in his heart, prompting a few hearty laughs before telling Hou Yuxiao to roll out.

Hou Yuxiao didn't take these two seriously at all, treating their voices as nothing but the wind beside his ear, his gaze fixated on Moxuzi and Zhao Qingxue the whole time.

The two had different reactions when they heard him say he didn't bring a dowry.

Moxuzi's face displayed obvious anger, as for someone of his stature, while the value of the dowry was secondary, the fact that Hou Yuxiao came empty-handed was out of line and showed a lack of regard for his disciple;

Zhao Qingxue, on the other hand, appeared hesitant to speak, and from her actions, it seemed she realized her master Moxuzi was angry and wanted to speak on her behalf.

This silly girl...

Hou Yuxiao sighed inwardly, took two steps forward, and bowed with his hands folded: "Elder, Mr. Hou merely said he didn't bring a dowry, not that he didn't prepare one..."

He paused for a moment, then raised his right hand and pointed to the northwest, the direction of Hexi Prefecture, his face solemn as he continued, "Mr. Hou's dowry is the Hexi Four Counties. After Qingxue marries me, she will be the matron of the Hou Clan, and the Hexi Prefecture's four counties and nineteen districts, along with all of Hou Clan's wealth, including the life of Hou Yuxiao, are the dowry.

I truly don't know how to bring such a dowry over, so I came here empty-handed, bringing only myself first. I wonder, Qingxue, would you accept it?"

......

As Hou Yuxiao's words fell, the hall fell suddenly silent.

Frankly speaking, even considering the current reputation and scale of the Hou Clan, offering the entire clan as a dowry still seemed somewhat insufficient compared to the one from the Wuwei King.

But the way Hou Yuxiao put it really had the power to move someone.

The Matron of the Hou Clan, four counties and nineteen districts, the clan's entire wealth.

Even, his own life...

Zhao Qingxue looked at Hou Yuxiao, her eyes already misting over, her lips involuntarily curling into a stunning smile. Meeting Hou Yuxiao's gaze, she hesitated before nodding shyly, a picture of grace and charm.

Although a hint of satisfaction appeared on Moxuzi's face, who knew what he was really thinking? His eyes, watching Hou Yuxiao, always carried a trace of deep thought. But when he turned to see his disciple's expression, he sighed softly again.

"I may be Qingxue's master, but I will not interfere with her marriage matters. Whomever she wishes to marry, it's her own choice. Whatever the outcome, I hope the other two gentlemen will be considerate!"

While the astonishment on Hou Hong and Hou Fei's faces had yet to fade, and the anger toward Hou Yuxiao was just beginning to rise, Moxuzi had already spoken. Hearing him, their expressions froze, and they didn't even notice that when Moxuzi asked the other two to be considerate, his gaze lingered on them the whole time. Instead, they looked up at Zhao Qingxue.

Zhao Qingxue took a few steps forward, obviously towards Hou Yuxiao's direction.

As she noticed Hou Yuxiao's gaze, her cheeks flamed red--she was still a young girl after all, too thin-skinned. Stopping in her tracks, she turned to face Moxuzi and whispered in a voice thin as a mosquito, "Qingxue has been to Hexi with master before and likes that place very much..."

After finishing, feeling the heat rise to her ears, Zhao Qingxue reached the peak of her embarrassment and could no longer stay there, vanishing from the main hall.

Although the outcome didn't surprise him, Hou Yuxiao still sighed in relief. Watching Zhao Qingxue's disappearing figure, he silently thanked her in his heart and turned to bow to Moxuzi, saying loudly, "Yuxiao, grateful to Elder Mo for his help!"

"Elder Mo, what is the meaning of this?"

Hearing Hou Hong's questioning voice, Hou Yuxiao inwardly shook his head.
