Cui Mansion.
After Cui Zhihong and Meng Zixin discussed the decision for three days, they immediately returned to Cui Mansion. When they came to the study, they immediately sent someone to call Cui Ying.
Xie Kuang was so mad that he didn't take the strong men of the Sixth Division in his eyes at all. Little did he know that the Lord of the City didn't take him in either, and he was only thinking about promoting the marriage between Ye Huo and Cui Ying.
Cui Ying walked into the study, sat down opposite Cui Zhihong, and asked, "Dad, are you looking for me?"
Cui Zhihong nodded with a smile and went straight to the point, "I heard that a genius came out of the academy, passed the Yuelong exam, and entered the inner courtyard? It seems that his name is Ye Huo?"
"Yes." Cui Ying said calmly, "Dad, why did you suddenly ask him?"
Originally, she still liked Ye Huo a little bit, but when she learned in the City Lord's Mansion that Ye Huo was Lord Sun's male favorite, her opinion of Ye Huo had hit rock bottom, and she was even a little disgusted, and she didn't bother to mention it.
"I want to betroth you to him, what do you think?" Cui Zhihong asked with a smile.
"No!" Cui Ying was very excited and jumped up from her chair.
Cui Zhihong frowned slightly and said, "I'm just asking, what are you excited about?"
Cui Ying hurriedly explained: "Dad, you don't know, this Ye Huo is Mr. Sun Wutong's male favorite. Although his talent is good, I, Cui Ying, don't like this kind of man who sells his body in order to climb up. , too unbearable!”
Cui Zhihong frowned and asked, "Who are you listening to talking nonsense?"
Cui Ying said: "I saw with my own eyes today that Ye Huo took Master Sun's personal token to look for her. If he was not a male favorite, how could he get Master Sun's token?"
Cui Zhihong was silent and asked: "If I say that he is not Mr. Sun's male favorite, would you be willing to marry him?"
Cui Ying was stunned for a moment. Isn't he Master Sun's male favorite?
But then, she shook her head firmly, how could that be possible?
"I understand, I won't mention this matter again, just go ahead and get on with it!"
Cui Zhihong sighed softly in his heart. He knew that once Cui Ying had this kind of subjective consciousness, it would be difficult to change it. If he wanted to change her opinion, he could only propose Ye Huo's identity. Adult's male favorite?
But he couldn't say this.
He can know some inside information in advance and get close to it, but there are rules, and what should be kept secret must not be told outside.
Once touched, it is dangerous.
Therefore, he could only sigh at this time.
…
Ye Yuntian left the city lord's mansion and asked Xiao Wu to pass the news to Shangguan Youyi, while he returned to the academy.
In these three days, he must improve his strength to a higher level to face unexpected situations.
He first went to get the clothes from the inner courtyard, and then went to rent a secret room on the second floor of the meditation tower. In more than two days, he improved his cultivation to the middle stage of the spirit forging realm.
He rarely uses elixirs to improve his cultivation, even the best elixirs, because as long as they are elixirs there will be a trace of toxicity, which will have no effect for a short period of time, but if you want to surpass the realm of true gods, you must have a good foundation.
Fortunately, the skills he practiced were powerful, and the spiritual energy in the secret room was abundant, so it did not take too long to enter the middle stage of the spirit forging realm.
Three days later, Ye Yuntian's eyes suddenly opened and closed, emitting a bright light. After a moment, the light in his eyes converged.
He put on a brand new inner courtyard robe, walked out of the meditation tower, and came to the Shangguan family, where he joined the Shangguan family, Shangguan Youyi and Sun Wutong.
"Oh, you even dressed up specially. I think you went to find out whether Xie Kuang was fake and whether you went to propose marriage was real, right?"
When Sun Wutong saw Ye Yuntian, he couldn't help but joked.
"It's just a change of clothes. I have to say that these clothes for the disciples in the inner courtyard are very comfortable."
Ye Yuntian responded with a smile.
"Let's go! I hope we can successfully kill Xie Kuang during this trip!"
There was a sense of murder in Shangguan Youyi's words. He wanted to kill Xie Kuang to avenge Feng'er!
The three of them came to the Gu family together. Ye Yuntian and Shangguan Youyi stood side by side. Sun Wutong wore ordinary floral clothes, hiding his cultivation level, like an old slave, and not attracting attention.
At the gate of the Gu family, they ran into several people from the Sha family.
The first person was Sha Yunhai and a middle-aged man with a heroic face.
This person is none other than Sha Yongwu, the head of the Sha family.
Sha Yongwu and Sha Yunhai were followed by three old men. The three of them were all masters of the spirit refining realm and seemed to be senior members of the Sha family.
It seems that facing Shangguan Youyi, a strong person in the spirit transformation realm, the Sha family is still under great pressure, and they have dispatched four masters of the spirit refining realm.
It also proves that the Sha family attaches great importance to this matter.
"Elder Shangguan!"
When Sha Yongwu saw the three of them, he took the lead and walked forward, handing over to Shangguan Youyi, "I am here all for my useless son. I hope this matter will not affect the relationship between our two families."
To be honest, for a strong man in the spirit transformation realm, the Sha family puts a lot of pressure on him.
Shangguan Youyi said: "I can't represent the Shangguan family, I only represent myself. As elders, we just come forward to help the young people. As for whether they can be favored by Miss Gu, it depends on the young people's own abilities. "
"That's right." Sha Yongwu was relieved when he heard what Shangguan Youyi said, "Let's go in together and see what the Gu family's attitude is. Elder Shangguan please!"
Sha Yongwu stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
Shangguan Youyi was not polite and walked into Gu's house first.
Sha Yunhai looked at Ye Yuntian's back with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Ye Huo has got into the eyes of the college's senior officials. Unless you can kill him on the life and death stage of the college, then put away your eyes like this." Sha Yongwu scolded Sha Yunhai.
Sha Yunhai closed his eyes and opened them again after a moment. His eyes had returned to calmness.
Sha Yongwu also walked into Gu's house with a few people.
Gu Yun had also known for a long time that Ye Yuntian was coming to propose marriage, and was already waiting in the outer courtyard. When he saw Ye Yuntian and the others arriving, he hurriedly came up to greet him. He first saluted Shangguan Youyi, and then led the three of them there. Walk to the reception hall.
"Gu Yun, Sha Yunhai and I came to propose marriage at the same time today. The top brass of the Gu family should come forward, right?"
Ye Yuntian asked Gu Yundao.
He speculated that Xie Kuang would definitely not turn into an unknown person, but would turn into a senior member of the Gu family. As long as Xie Kuang appeared, he would definitely be able to identify it.
I'm just worried that Xie Kuang won't show up.
Gu Yun said: "Gu Bailiu is already waiting in the living room with all the elders, but my father may come later."
Ye Yuntian nodded slightly and asked, "Have you noticed anything strange in the family recently?"
"Strange?" Gu Yun asked in confusion.
Ye Yuntian said: "It's just that his performance is different from usual."
A person suddenly appeared in Gu Yun's mind, but she shook her head and said, "No, it's all normal."
Ye Yuntian didn't ask any more questions and soon came to the living room.
Shangguan Youyi is powerful and the powerful elder of the Shangguan family. She has a high status. Gu Bailiu saw her from a distance and led many senior members of the Gu family to greet her.
"When Elder Shangguan comes to visit this humble abode, it really makes him shine!"
The leader has a heroic appearance and a hearty laugh.
Ye Yuntian speculated that this person was Gu Bailiu, the head of the Gu family. He glanced at this person with his fire phantom eyes. He found that this person was not an evil spirit, and that the meridians in this person's body were filled with strong fire-attribute spiritual energy. Magnificent, on the verge of breakthrough.
And it seems that it can break through, but it is suppressed.
This person is not simple, but he is still far from evil.
Gu Bailiu took the elders of the Gu family to greet Shangguan Youyi.
Ye Yuntian took this opportunity to scan the more than ten elders of the Spirit Refining Realm present with his fire phantom eyes one by one.
However, the existence of Xie Kuang was not found!
"This little friend with an extraordinary appearance must be Ye Huo!"
Gu Bailiu looked at Ye Yuntian and said to Shangguan Youyi.
Gu Bailiu saw Ye Yuntian's eyes and felt that his eyes were very bright, as if he had been seen through, so he brought up the topic.
Ye Yuntian cupped his hands and said, "Ye Huo has met Mr. Gu!"
"You are indeed young and promising!" Gu Bailiu exclaimed. Compared to Sha Yunhai, he was more inclined towards Ye Huo. After all, Ye Huo was not only talented, but also related to the official family.
Choosing Sha Yunhai before was also a helpless choice. At that time, he just wanted to keep Gu Yun away from this whirlpool.
At this time, another maid brought Sha Yong, Wu Sha Yunhai and others to the reception hall.
"Brother Gu!"
"Brother Sha!"
Everyone in the Sha family and the top management of the Gu family couldn't help but exchange a few polite words before taking their seats.
The huge living room was already full of people and very lively.
"Brother Gu, I came to visit you at the same time as the elder Gu. It's actually Gu Yunxian's niece who is too outstanding!" Sha Yongwu said first, "The intention of our two families is already obvious. I wonder what Brother Gu thinks?"
Gu Bailiu said with some embarrassment: "Nephew Yunhai and Ye Xian are both great among men, but there is only one Gu Yun, and this makes me feel quite embarrassed. Although Gu Yun is my brother's daughter, I also I love her very much, and since I have chosen a husband for her, I have to choose an outstanding one, so how about letting the two nephews compete on the same stage?"
Sha Yongwu said: "This method is very good, I agree!"
Shangguan Youyi said slowly: "I have no objection either."
Gu Bailiu then said: "Well, my idea is that there will be three games in total, two wins out of three. As for the specific questions, Gu Yun's niece will come up with one question, and I will come up with two questions. Do you agree?"
"I agree!" Sha Yongwu said first.
Shangguan Youyi was about to agree, but received a message from Ye Yuntian.
Shangguan Youyi then changed her words and said: "I think Gu Yunxian's niece will ask one question, the head of the Gu family will ask another question, and there is another question. I suggest that Gu Yunxian's niece's father should ask the question! It is said that Gu Yunxian's niece's father is also in the Gu family, why is he not here?"
Ye Yuntian found no trace of Xiekuang in the living room, but there was one senior member of the Gu family who did not show up at the scene, and that was Gu Yun's father, Gu Baichuan! At this time, he seriously suspected that Gu Baichuan was Xie Kuang!
Gu Bailiu was stunned for a moment, then explained: "My brother is ill and is resting. I think Elder Shangguan's suggestion is very good."
"Niece Gu Yun, this matter is related to your life-long event. It would be inappropriate for your father not to participate. Let your father also ask a question. Please go and ask for it!"
Gu Bailiu said to Gu Yun.
Gu Yun responded and left quickly to invite Gu Baichuan.
Shangguan Youyi's proposal really spoke to Gu Yun's heart. This was a major event in her life. Although she had already made a choice in her heart, she also hoped that her father would be involved and recognize the person she chose.
She quickly came to Gu Baichuan's study, knocked on the door, and called: "Dad!"
Gu Baichuan opened the door and asked with a chuckle: "Ye Huo is here too?"
Gu Yun was startled, his face turned red, and he nodded and said, "We are all here, please ask father to go to the living room."
Gu Baichuan reached out and patted Gu Yun on the shoulder. Gu Yun froze, and his body's cultivation was suddenly frozen.
She looked at Gu Baichuan in shock.
"You wait for me here for a while. I'll capture Ye Huo and come here. Let's leave this hellish place together. I'll take you and Ye Huo to elope."
Gu Baichuan said with a smile.
Gu Yun was filled with regret and wanted to remind Ye Yuntian, but he couldn't speak, couldn't move, and couldn't do anything!
Another person walked out of the house, carried Gu Yun into the house, and then came out again, having transformed into Gu Yun's appearance.
The two looked at each other and smiled, walking towards the living room.
…
After Gu Yun left, the living room became quiet.
Gu Bailiu smiled slightly and said to Sha Yunhai and Ye Huo: "You two little friends, are you confident about today's competition?"
"Of course." Sha Yunhai's tone was sonorous and powerful.
Ye Yuntian also nodded.
"Ye Huo, no matter who asks the question, I will definitely beat you today!"
Sha Yunhai suddenly looked at Ye Yuntian, his eyes full of provocation.
Ye Yuntian smiled noncommittally and did not answer. The ultimate purpose of his coming here was not to compete with Sha Yunhai, so in his eyes, Sha Yunhai's performance at this moment was really ridiculous.
Not long after, Gu Baichuan and Gu Yun walked in one after the other.
The moment Gu Baichuan walked into the living room, Ye Yuntian stood up suddenly. His eyes were staring straight at Gu Baichuan!
The crazy person who transformed into evil was really unfortunate enough to be guessed by him!
"Stop! Where is Gu Yun?"
Ye Yuntian asked in a cold voice.
Everyone looked at Gu Baichuan and Gu Yun walking in confusion.
