Cheng Linong also showed a trace of embarrassment and said: "There is another hidden story in this matter. Let's not mention it for now. We can only give up on the marriage now." He glanced at Lin Yan with complicated eyes as he spoke.
Lin Yan felt a little embarrassed. If he didn't get involved, the marriage between the Cheng family and the Qin family would be a great thing that was talked about in the world.
He got involved, and Cheng Feishuang's will to resist became stronger, so the marriage could only be abandoned.
Cheng Feiyuan snorted coldly and said: "Some people still have the nerve to ask this? You are the one who messed up this matter!" Cheng Feishuang said sternly: "Brother, don't be subtle in your words. I am not responsible for the marriage of the Qin family. I don’t agree, even if there is no Lin Yan, I will not marry, otherwise I will not escape from the marriage, if you force me again, then I will escape again, and escape further than the southwest!"
Cheng Feiyuan frowned and said, "Shuang'er, why are you so persistent?"
Cheng Feishuang glanced sideways at him and sneered: "Brother, why are you so persistent? If you really force me like this, I can do anything. Moreover, since I have the spiritual roots of a person from the Immortal Sect, that means I also have the opportunity to join the Immortal Sect, and I can also participate in this sword trial."
"This matter is not a child's play!" Cheng Feiyuan said solemnly, "Dad, you don't want to persuade him?"
Cheng Linong shook his head and said: "If I didn't let Shuang'er go to the sword trial competition, I would avoid Shuang'er today." Hearing this, Cheng Feiyuan still couldn't understand what Cheng Linong meant, and said anxiously: "Dad, Shuang'er doesn't understand anything. Martial arts, how can you pass this dangerous and extremely dangerous sword test competition?" Cheng Feiyu also said with some worry: "Even the top warriors may not be able to pass this sword test competition, let alone Shuang'er who has no martial arts foundation? Dad, this is too It’s an adventure.”
Cheng Linong shook his head and said: "I have already decided on this matter." He sighed quietly, and after a while he slowly said: "This is also a no-win solution. If it weren't for Lin Yan's change, Shuang Shuang would have Perhaps it is right for my son to marry Qin Haoran, but now, Shuang'er does not agree with this matter, and has ruined his reputation for Lin Yan. If the Qin family knows about this matter, then Shuang'er will be hopeless? "
Cheng Feishuang couldn't understand Cheng Linong's words. What did it mean that she was completely hopeless?
Lin Yan thought about it, and there was something in Cheng Linong's words. It seemed that there was some hidden secret in this marriage, and it was because of himself that he made this hidden secret completely clear. He asked in surprise: "Could there be some hidden secret in this matter?"
Cheng Linong sighed slightly, nodded and said: "That's true, Yuan'er, Yu'er, do you still remember the old Taoist priest ten years ago?"
Cheng Feiyu said: "Of course I remember, if it hadn't been for him, we wouldn't have known that Shuang'er might be a person with spiritual roots and a destiny for immortality." He looked at Cheng Linong in surprise and said, "Could it be related to the old immortal? "
Cheng Linong sneered and said: "What a bullshit old immortal, that person is Xiao Qianjue's man, his name is Taoist Lu Zhan, but in his early years, this person wandered into various secret Taoist temples in the martial arts world, and had contact with some abandoned disciples in the immortal sect. Therefore, he knows some secrets of the Immortal Sect and some superficial immortal techniques. He is one of the people who knows the most about the Sword Trial Conference in this mortal world. Back then, Taoist Lu Zhan came to the Cheng family to tell him that the Sword Trial Conference would be held in ten years. He also told some inside stories about the sword test conference. It was this time that he saw Shuang'er, and because this person knew some qi-gazing techniques, he noticed that there was a spiritual energy in Shuang'er that was completely different from ordinary people, so he used the immortal The person in the sect used the method of testing spiritual roots and did a simple spiritual root test for Shuang'er, and it turned out to be innate spiritual roots."
"Although both innate spiritual roots and acquired spiritual roots can help people practice immortal magic, they have some differences. Like acquired spiritual roots, it is said that only warriors can be born in the body. Moreover, if you want to use acquired spiritual roots to practice immortal magic, you need to have it in your body. The acquired spiritual roots must reach a certain level, otherwise, even if you have spiritual roots, you will not be able to successfully practice immortal magic, or you may practice immortal magic, but you will not be able to go very far on the immortal road. But the innate spiritual roots are different. In the secular world, as long as a person is born with innate spiritual roots, if there is no accident, he will definitely be able to enter the immortal gate."
"There are spiritual roots in Shuang'er's body. If there are no accidents, at the sword trial meeting ten years later, there will be disciples from the Immortal Sect coming to introduce Shuang'er."
"If so, it should be a good thing." Lin Yan guessed, "Could it be that Taoist Lu Zhan had some bad intentions and did some tricks."
Cheng Linong was a little surprised and said, "How did you guess that?"
"What did the old Taoist priest do?" Cheng Feiyu said in shock, "Why don't we know about this?"
When Taoist Lu Zhan came to the Cheng family, Cheng Feiyu was only about eight or nine years old. Cheng Feiyuan was older, twelve or thirteen years old, but he was still young. Therefore, although he remembered some of the old Taoist priest's visit, he could not remember the details clearly.
Cheng Linong sneered and said: "Although Taoist Lu Zhan dresses up as a Taoist and practices Taoist martial arts and immortal magic, he is extremely ruthless. How rare it is to have an innate spiritual root. At the same time, it also represents the greatness of heaven." In order to keep this opportunity in his own hands, Taoist Lu Zhan cast an immortal spell to hide Shuang'er's spiritual root breath. At the same time, he also placed a blood curse on Shuang'er. If one day If Shuang'er is taken away by someone from the Immortal Sect, this blood curse will be triggered and Shuang'er will be killed."
Hearing this, Cheng Feishuang's smile turned pale, and she had no idea that the old Taoist priest had done these things to her.
Lin Yan saw her body trembling with fear. He reached out and secretly took Cheng Feishuang's little hand in his. Feeling the warmth in his palm, Cheng Feishuang calmed down.
Looking at Lin Yan's actions, Cheng Linong showed a faint smile and said immediately: "In order to take this so-called 'fairy seedling' into his own hands, Taoist Lu Zhan secretly contacted me and asked me to marry Shuang'er to the Qin family. Qin Haoran, otherwise he would activate this blood curse and kill Shuang'er, so I announced my marriage to the Qin family half a year ago in order to protect Shuang'er's life."
"Then what is Taoist Lu Zhan's purpose for doing this?" Cheng Feiyu frowned, "If Shuang'er is dissatisfied with this marriage, holds a grudge against the forced marriage, and tolerates it for the time being, then if there is a chance in the future, he will still enter the immortal sect, and how can he take revenge? Can a charlatan like him resist him?"
Almost all the people from the Immortal Sect who walk in the Jianghu are abandoned by the Immortal Sect. Although they know some basic techniques of cultivating immortals, they are not powerful enough to influence some of the strongest masters in the Jianghu, such as Xiao Qianjue.
These abandoned disciples of the Immortal Sect have limited qualifications, and most of them are not good enough in character, otherwise they would not be abandoned by the people in the Immortal Sect.
Lin Yan sighed and said, "It's all my fault." If it hadn't been for him, Cheng Feishuang might have suffered some injustice, but he wouldn't have been in danger of his life.
Qin Haoran is a well-known young hero in the world. He is famous for his powerful martial arts. He may also be Cheng Feishuang's lover.
"This time, Shuang'er didn't agree to marry Qin Haoran and ran away from home. The Qin family had already gotten some news and sent people to express their dissatisfaction. If I can't persuade Shuang'er to marry, I'm afraid that Lu Zhan The Taoist priest will come to you personally." Cheng Linong said in a condensed voice, "I love Shuang'er, and I don't want to force Shuang'er, so if you want to save Shuang'er, the sword trial meeting is the only chance."
When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Lin Yan. Lin Yan did not dare to look at Cheng Linong and looked away slightly, sighing slightly in his heart.
He had no intentions towards Cheng Feishuang, but he knew Cheng Feishuang's feelings for him clearly.
The hardest thing in the world to bear is the kindness of a beautiful woman.
Lin Yan took a deep breath, turned around and looked at Cheng Feishuang, who was lowering his head and trembling a little. His heart was very complicated. He took a deep breath, looked into Cheng Linong's eyes and said, "I will protect Shuang well." Son, Taoist Lu Zhan can't hurt her."
There was a smile on Cheng Linong's lips and he said, "With your words, I feel relieved."
Lin Yan trembled slightly. He knew that Cheng Linong had entrusted his daughter to him.
After lunch, Lin Yan stood alone in the yard outside the door, thinking about all the things that had happened recently, as if in a dream.
Tian Daozong fought fiercely and traveled through another world in a bizarre way.
As soon as he woke up, he was involved in this martial arts dispute, encountered so many conspiracies, open guns and secret arrows, and by chance, he rescued Cheng Feishuang, and he was rescued after arriving in Yongzhou City.
Fate played such a big joke on him.
He sighed, his goal gradually becoming clearer. Through this sword trial meeting, he wants to get in touch with people in the Immortal Sect and understand what the world is really like.
He had a premonition that countries like Jin might be just a small part of the world, and the real world was within the Immortal Sect. He thought of Cheng Feishuang again and didn't know how to face it. The only thing he could do now was to protect Cheng Feishuang's safety at the sword trial meeting.
After moving his fists and feet a little in the yard, Lin Yan felt a little short of breath. He returned to his room, sat down and adjusted his breath, channeling the remaining medicinal power in his body to repair his body.
Night fell quickly, and the servants brought food. Lin Yan finished eating and was about to go to bed to regain his energy. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew outside the door, causing the branches of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree outside the window to sway gently and creak.
Lin Yan stopped moving, as if he felt someone was outside.
"This old guy is indeed here." Lin Yan thought to himself. Tu Dongyin searched the entire Yongzhou City during the day, but did not touch the territory of the Cheng family and the Zhenwu Sect. Tu Dongyin would not give up until Lin Yan was found. Although he did not dare to offend the Cheng family openly, he would definitely investigate secretly.
Especially the first night in prison.
Lin Yan took a few silver needles, inserted them into several acupuncture points on his face, and slightly stimulated them with zhenqi. The muscles on his face trembled slightly and produced some changes. Although there was not much difference overall, it was far from the same. He looked like a different person.
This is an acupuncture method to control muscles. It uses true energy to stabilize the muscles, and it can change the appearance in a short time. If Lin Yan is willing to control it, he can even change his height.
After doing this, Lin Yan blew out the lantern, went to bed and covered himself with a quilt, controlling his breathing to be weak and steady, as if he was really asleep.
