Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Hehe, you’re quite shy, girl!” Murong Jingming chuckled as he spoke, “Your Brother Xingrui really fancies you. Would you consider him?”
Though spoken in a joking tone, everyone could sense the sincerity in Murong Jingmings words.
Ye Wanwan’s cheeks turned crimson as she stammered, struggling to find words.
Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhu exchanged glances. Although they didn’t voice it, it was clear they were intrigued by Murong Jingmings suggestion.
Certainly, their consideration wasn’t solely driven by the interests of their family. They could see that their daughter didn’t appear averse to the idea.
Reflecting on the past, when their daughter had a fondness for someone named Huangfu Ruiling, they found it unreliable. Despite Huangfu Ruiling holding some status in the Huangfu family, he was physically impaired. It wasn’t a matter of disdain but a belief that such an individual wasn’t a suitable match for their daughter.
They reluctantly agreed to the match due to their daughters persistent requests. However, they hadn’t anticipated Huangfu Ruilings ingratitude. Not only did he reject the marriage, but he also insulted their daughter.
Originally, they were worried that their daughter wouldn’t be able to let go of Huangfu Ruiling. Now, seeing her shy demeanor, they understood that she was indeed interested in Murong Jingmings proposal. As long as their daughter could truly move on from Huangfu Ruiling, it would undoubtedly be a good thing.
Furthermore, Murong Xingrui was indeed an excellent candidate. Despite his youth, he had already reached the middle stage of the Fasting Stage.
Combined with his handsome appearance, he was also the next head of the Murong family.
Regardless of the perspective, he and Wanwan were well-matched.
“Let the youngsters decide for themselves!” Ye Hongxuan smiled and added,
“However, Xingrui is indeed a fine young man. If he’s available, guiding
Wanwan in her cultivation would be ideal.’
His intent was crystal clear – he supported the union.
“Great, great!” Murong Jingming agreed repeatedly. “Xingrui will surely be happy to guide Wanwan.”
He naturally grasped the underlying message in Ye Hongxuan’s words. It seemed the Ye family also endorsed this marriage, making the situation straightforward. While the wishes of the two children were crucial, such a union also concerned the two families.
Now that a consensus had been reached between the two families, it couldn’t be better. The marriage alliance would undoubtedly strengthen the bond between the Murong family and the Ye family.
Perhaps due to the tacit understanding between the two families, Murong Jingming and Ye Hongxuan spoke more intimately and with less formality than before.
Observing this, the heads and elders of other families couldn’t help but lament. If only they had acted sooner. Every family had exceptional juniors! Losing two excellent marriage prospects was regrettable.
Regardless of others’ thoughts, Murong Jingming and Ye Hongxuan were elated about this development.
The competition on stage continued, but Murong Jingming and Ye
Hongxuan’s actions had sparked contemplation among many. Some wondered if they could seize this opportunity to find a suitable marriage partner for their sons or daughters.
However, the arrival of law enforcers from the Enforcement Team extinguished the crowd’s enthusiasm.
Seeing the law enforcers, everyone was bewildered, thinking someone had violated the laws of the Hidden World. However, when the enforcers disclosed their purpose, it hit the gathering like an explosive revelation.
The revelation was simply too shocking, particularly when some recalled the sudden disappearances of friends and family. The connection between these incidents became unavoidable.
After disclosing the issue of that evil cultivator, the law enforcers departed. However, no one present could maintain a calm demeanor.
The heads of the major families immediately issued orders for a thorough investigation into the disciples who had inexplicably disappeared over the years..
