Xiao Yao stood up gratefully, held up the wine bowl with both hands, and said solemnly to Zhen Ni: "Miss, on behalf of the Xiao Clan, Xiao Yao also represents Xiao Yan. I would like to thank the eldest miss for your help to the Xiao Clan and to Xiao Yan." Your support will never be forgotten! "
Xiao Li and Xiao Long also picked up their wine bowls and stood up, saying in unison: "Miss, I will never forget you!" "
The three ancestors of the Xiao clan stood in front of Zhen Ni so respectfully. As the eldest lady of the Zhen family, Zhen Ni did not feel that there was anything unacceptable. She did not look at Xiao Yao, Xiao Li and Xiao Long, but consciously or unconsciously He glanced sideways at Xiao Yan.
Why didn't Xiao Yao understand Zhen Ni's thoughts, and he, Xiao Li, and Xiao Long really couldn't represent the Xiao clan at the moment? He immediately showed the majesty of the ancestors of the Xiao clan and shouted loudly to Xiao Yan, who was still stunned: "Silly boy" , what are you still doing? "
Only then did Xiao Yan recover from his confusion about what he should do to avoid going to the Zhen family and not embarrass the Zhen family's wife. He quickly picked up the wine bowl and stood up. He bowed to Zhen Ni and blurted out: "Never dare." forget! Never fail! "
Never fail! Enemy, is this your oath? Zhen Ni seemed to have forgotten that so many people were there. She looked at Xiao Yan blankly at that moment, tears rolling in her eyes.
Xiao Qi, who had been standing behind Xiao Yan, walked behind Zhen Ni under the instructions from Xiao Yao and Xiao Li's eyes, and put her hands lightly on Zhen Ni's shoulders. Although she was speechless, it expressed her role as Xiao Mansion better than a thousand words. The mother-in-law is grateful and moved. Qing Mu'er also softly called "sister" and quietly held Zhen Ni's hand under the table.
As women, they all know Zhen Ni's suffering. One is the daughter of the Human Emperor, the eldest lady of the Zhen family, and the other is just the patriarch of a family affiliated with the Zhen family. The identity gap between Zhen Ni and Xiao Yan is so big that it is almost insurmountable. Moreover, Xiao Yan is still married, but But Zhen Ni loves Xiao Yan persistently, does her best to help Xiao Yan grow up, and waits for the day when Xiao Yan is qualified to marry her. And that day may never come. Qing Muer felt the same way about this. If it weren't for the spiritual thought left by the old Demon King, he must be friends with Xiao Yan at all costs. If it weren't for Qing Haoran who witnessed the miracles created by Xiao Yan one after another and was very optimistic about Xiao Yan's future. , it is extremely difficult for her to marry Xiao Yan.
While the men here envied Xiao Yan for being so favored by Zhen Ni, and sighed in their hearts, "If I can get a wife like this, what more could I ask for?", they all respected Zhen Ni.
Zhen Ni quickly woke up from her daze. He stood up shyly, picked up the wine, looked at Xiao Yan affectionately, and drank it down together with Xiao Yan.
After sitting down, no one said anything, and the atmosphere was a little quiet for a while. Qing Haoran coughed lightly. Asked Xiao Yan: 'Brother, how do you plan to handle this matter? "
Xiao Yan thought for a while and said: 'Since Zhen Ni's uncle wants me not to go, I won't go. And to be honest, I really don’t want to go. Before the Xiao Mansion shows its true strength, I will definitely be a little angry if I go there. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself. 'Then turned around. She looked at Zhen Ni and then at Qing Mu'er with a very complicated look. After several times she wanted to speak but stopped, she said, "Zhen Ni, do you think this will work? Before I went into seclusion, my ancestor made an arrangement with my eldest brother that I would be with him after I came out of seclusion." Is Mu'er getting married? Mu'er and I will get married in a few days. The Demon Emperor's sister is getting married, I think. Your father will definitely come to congratulate you, so I don’t have to go to Zhen’s house. "
Hearing Xiao Yan mention his marriage to Qing Mu'er, everyone who already knew that the marriage was changed to an engagement quietly bowed their heads. Zhen Ni looked embarrassed as if she wanted to say something but couldn't, while Qing Mu'er raised her eyebrows in grievance. Mouth.
Xiao Yan thought that his idea made both Zhen Ni and Qing Muer unhappy, so he hurriedly said: "If you think it's inappropriate, Zhen Ni." Just tell your uncle that I will go to the Yao Clan after I leave seclusion. If you have anything to do with me, wait until I come back. "
Qing Haoran sighed softly after pondering for a while. He said regretfully to Xiao Yan: "Brother, your marriage to Mu'er cannot be done for the time being." "
Xiao Yan turned around and looked at Qing Haoran in shock. For some reason, he felt inexplicably relieved when he suddenly heard that his marriage to Qing Muer was not going to happen for the time being. He couldn't help turning his head back to look at Qing Mu'er, but he unconsciously cast more eyes on Zhen Ni to see Zhen Ni's reaction. Only then did he understand why he felt relieved. It turned out that he had always been very cautious about this matter. Nervous about Zhen Ni’s feelings. He quickly scanned the crowd again and found that no one looked surprised. He thought to himself that something must have happened, and hurriedly asked Xiao Yao: "Ancestor, has something happened?" "
He didn't ask Qing Hao but asked Xiao Yao. He thought it was definitely not Xiao Yao who ruined the marriage. It was probably an elder from the Blood Demon clan who raised objections and thought that Xiao Yan was not worthy of marrying the Demon Emperor's sister, so Qing Haoran couldn't. Do not break the engagement.
Xiao Yao looked sad, shook his head bitterly and said, "My child, this is for your own good." Alas, the suggestion was made by the Demon Emperor, so you should ask the Demon Emperor. "
really! Xiao Yan suppressed his anger and looked at Qing Haoran, waiting for Qing Haoran to give him an explanation.
At this time Le Shaolong spoke: "Master Xiao, the suggestion was made by me and has nothing to do with the Demon Emperor." "
Xiao Yan immediately turned his head to Le Shaolong. He didn't understand why Le Shaolong interfered in his marriage with Qing Muer. Could it be because of Zhen Bufan's instruction for Zhen Ni? If that was the case, he wouldn't mind immediately asking Le Shaolong to return to the Merchant Alliance and follow Zhen Bufan.
Le Shaolong felt Xiao Yan's faint anger, but he did everything for Xiao Yan's safety, with a clear conscience, and said calmly: "The reason why I made this suggestion is because you suddenly broke through from the mid-five-star to the six-star." "
Hearing what Le Shaolong said, Xiao Yan immediately understood that he had misunderstood Le Shaolong. Although he did not quite understand Le Shaolong's specific reasons, he still calmed down and encouraged Le Shaolong: "Go on." "
Le Shaolong pursed his lips and smiled, and continued: "The marriage between Young Master Xiao and Miss Mu'er is originally a great joy for Xiao Mansion, but Young Master Xiao, have you ever thought about how many guests came to congratulate the Demon Emperor's sister on her wedding?" , most of them are people with high strength, and there are many talented people and strangers. It is difficult to conceal the strength of Xiao Shao's Six-Star Fighting Emperor. And once the strength of your Six-Star Dou Emperor is exposed, it may bring you a disaster! The Shadow Alliance's assassination order may no longer be a second-level mysterious killing order, but may become a third-level mysterious killing order or even a second-level earthly killing order to send out seven-star killers, as well as the Alchemy Palace and the soul demon clan. so……"
Xiao Yan pursed his lips and listened to Le Shaolong's reasons, his heart was cut like a knife. Although he had some resistance to marrying Qing Mu'er now, for the sake of his own safety, he suddenly refused to marry Qing Mu'er. He felt that he was very unlike a man, very aggrieved and very angry. It's one thing to be reluctant. Being pressured by the enemy is another matter! He, Xiao Yan, had never been a person willing to give in. He was so suffocated that he could hardly breathe.
He even wanted to shout out desperately: 'No, I will marry Mu'er right away! 'But now he is no longer the stupid and fearless Xiao Yan. Now he shoulders the important task of leading the Xiao clan to rise on the Dou Emperor Continent, and is also tied to Xiao Qi, Qing Lin, Zhen Ni and Qing Mu'er's deep affection, and the responsibility to give Xun'er, Cailin and daughter Xiao Xiao a stable home in Doudi Continent, he must endure. You have to endure it no matter how much you can.
Looking at Qing Mu'er with tears in her eyes, he felt that he was very sorry for Qing Mu'er. Before Le Shaolong could finish speaking, he said to the pitiful Qing Mu'er: "Mu'er, wait for me. When Xiao Yan becomes stronger, I will definitely marry you into the Xiao Mansion in all glory." From the Shadow Alliance, the Alchemy Palace, and the Soul Demon Clan, I want to go and send the invitations in person! "
Listening to Xiao Yan's assurance and seeing the firmness on Xiao Yan's pretty face, Qing Mu'er nodded heavily, tears streaming down her face, "Little liar, I'm waiting for you!" Waiting for you forever! "
'Look at you. Before Shaolong could finish his words, he made Miss Muer cry. Zhen Ni scolded Xiao Yan, and then said with a smile, "Although you and Mu'er cannot get married for the time being, the Demon Emperor and Patriarch Xiao thought after discussing it that you two can get engaged first. Mu'er is still yours." "
'got engaged? Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, this was in line with his current feelings for Mu'er.
'how? Not satisfied? 'Zhen Ni asked jokingly. Then he said, "For the engagement, there is no need to invite outsiders. Just us here and a few elders from the Blood Demon clan can witness it." As for you, just think carefully about what engagement gift you should give Miss Muer. "
'Oh, okay. Xiao Yan kept nodding his head, and then asked Qing Muer. 'Mu'er, what gift do you want? "
'fool! Zhen Ni laughed angrily, "How can you ask "qg ren" what gift he wants?" Think for yourself! "
Everyone laughed, and Xiao Yan scratched his head in embarrassment.
Qing Haoran smiled and said: 'Brother. Just think about this slowly. But hurry up, the old clan leader and I want to get this done before you go to the Medicine Clan. Seeing Xiao Yan's troubled look, Qing Haoran whispered in Xiao Yan's ear, "I heard that Zhen Ni has already prepared a gift for you." ’ Then he sat up straight and asked Xiao Yan, ‘Brother, you are about to become my elder brother’s brother-in-law. My elder brother pays more attention to your safety than before. Tell me, what do you think of your actual combat power now? Is it dangerous to deal with a six-star late game plus two six-star mid-game players? "
'This...' Xiao Yan had just broken through to six stars, and he really didn't know what his actual combat power was, but he thought that if he could reach the late four-star stage, he wouldn't be afraid of a late five-star one. Although the late six-star Dou Emperor's The level of fighting skills is definitely not low, but his fighting skills have also improved, and his soul power has reached the mid-level of mind level, so why should he be afraid? Moreover, isn’t there Long Yi, who is in the mid-six-star stage? So he said with confidence: "Brother, don't worry, I'm not afraid of dealing with him alone, let alone Long Yi!" "
Zhen Ni nodded reassuringly, "Well, if you take Long Yi with you, there will definitely be no problem." "
When Long Yi heard that Xiao Yan was going to take him with him this time, he jumped up with joy, 'Yeah! It would be weird if dad and I didn’t kill all the people sent by the Shadow Alliance and Alchemy Palace to kill dad! "
'Look, I'll make you happy. Qing Muer, who usually has the best relationship with Long Yi, teased Long Yi like a sister teasing a younger brother, "Do you think those killers are stupid?" When people see you are two people, why would you be so stupid to take action? cut! "
Long Yi smiled slyly and said, "Sister Mu'er, oh no, Aunt Mu'er, don't worry, they can't see me. I won't show up suddenly until they attack daddy and kill them all." hey-hey. "
Only then did everyone remember that Long Yi often disappeared mysteriously and appeared mysteriously in the Xiao Mansion. No one knew where he went or where he suddenly appeared. Every time he asked Long Yi, Long Yi hesitated. When asked about Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan smiled and refused to answer, guessing that Xiao Yan must have some secret space, but since Xiao Yan and Long Yi didn't tell them, they didn't ask again. Now that Long Yi has a way to become invisible, regardless of whether the enemy takes action or not, Xiao Yan is much safer and everyone feels more relieved.
