C171 Xuanyuan Wudi was shocked
Xuanyuan Aotian's disclosure of the news had already caught Teng Yan by surprise.
But now?
Xuanyuan Wudi's decision made Teng Yan collapse instantly.
betrothed Xuanyuan Linglong to him?
This was nothing.
This was not the answer Teng Yan wanted at all.
"I said I'm going to betroth Linglong to Young Master Yan." Seeing Teng Yan's stupefied and dumbfounded reaction, Xuanyuan Wudi smiled indifferently.
"..."
"Xuanyuan clan leader, this joke isn't funny at all." The corner of Teng Yan's mouth twitched.
"Does Young Master Yan think this old man is joking? This old man has not, moreover this matter was agreed to by Linglong, and as long as Young Master Yan agrees, Linglong can marry into the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow. " Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi spoke with a serious face, but his face still had a faint smile.
betrothed Xuanyuan Linglong to Teng Yan?
This was naturally not something that Xuanyuan Wudi had decided on himself, but rather something that Xuanyuan Wudi had decided on after discussing with him.
Kill Teng Yan?
Xuanyuan Family did not dare to make such a move.
Not kill Teng Yan?
In the end, the Xuanyuan Family would be completely engulfed by Teng Yan.
Marriage!
This was the last choice Xuanyuan Wudi and Xuanyuan Linglong made, and also the only way out for the Xuanyuan Family. As long as Xuanyuan Linglong marries Teng Yan, then... In the future, even if it was for Xuanyuan Linglong's sake, Teng Yan would definitely not make things difficult for the Xuanyuan Family.
Of course, this was not at the expense of Xuanyuan Linglong.
Just as Xuanyuan Wudi had said before, there was no doubt about Xuanyuan Linglong's excellence. In the entire Chaotic Capital, no one was worthy of Xuanyuan Linglong. But Teng Yan was different. Let's not talk about whether or not Teng Yan had strong powers supporting him from behind, just based on his identity as a medicine master, his age, and even younger than Xuanyuan Linglong by a few years. It could be said that the age of the two could be considered to be similar. Such a person would naturally be a good husband to Xuanyuan Family and would even have a better future.
It wasn't a loss for Xuanyuan Linglong to marry Teng Yan.
Even higher.
That was why Xuanyuan Wudi made such a decision.
Hm?
Seeing Xuanyuan Wudi's serious expression, Teng Yan could not help but be taken aback.
"No kidding?" Her sharp eyes looked at Xuanyuan Wudi and asked.
"Nope."
"This young master doesn't agree."
"Why?"
"This young master already has a wife." As Teng Yan spoke, the image of Qin Feiyue's devastatingly beautiful face involuntarily surfaced in her mind. Not to mention that Qin Feiyue was not worse than her in the first place, she was even more outstanding, many times more outstanding.
"This..." In the face of Teng Yan's unhesitating rejection, it was Xuanyuan Wudi's turn to be at a loss.
Teng Yan rejected?
This was something that Xuanyuan Wudi had never thought of.
Unexpectedly!
The atmosphere became a little depressing;
They fell into a short silence.
"I, KAO …" Inside the rear hall, Xuanyuan Aotian also had a face full of disbelief.
Grandfather wants Linglong to marry Young Master Yan?
This already exceeded Xuanyuan Aotian's understanding, after all, Xuanyuan Wudi's care for Xuanyuan Linglong was unquestionable.
She was the apple of Xuanyuan Wudi's eye.
But now?
Teng Yan actually rejected it?
What did Xuanyuan Linglong look like?
It was needless to say that with Xuanyuan Linglong's innate talent, just her beauty that could topple nations was not something that just anyone could resist. I believe that all men would want to take her for themselves, but what about now? Facing such an enticement, Teng Yan actually rejected it.
He refused...
Xuanyuan Aotian couldn't understand no matter how hard he tried.
Hehe!
Beside Xuanyuan Aotian, Jing Wuming and Yin Tianheng looked at each other and laughed.
Xuanyuan Linglong?
Maybe to the Xuanyuan Family, or even to the entire Chaotic Capital, Xuanyuan Linglong was very outstanding, and also very touching. However, compared to the capital's Qin Feiyue, she was still lacking by a little bit, so it was natural that Teng Yan would reject her. However, Xuanyuan Family's decision had shocked Jing Wuming and Yin Tianheng.
Marriage?
Wasn't this indirectly indicating the decision of the Xuanyuan Family?
"Young Master Yan …" After a short period of silence and being at a loss, Xuanyuan Wudi once again looked at Teng Yan, "Being a man, having three wives and four concubines is a very common thing. Moreover, Young Master Yan is so outstanding, so what if he already has a wife? I do not mind, and I believe Linglong will not mind either. "
Teng Yan could not help but be taken aback.
You don't mind?
This young master does not mind.
And he would mind.
Although Teng Yan thought that in his heart, he did not say it out loud. Instead, he looked at Xuanyuan Wudi and said, "Xuanyuan clan leader, let's not talk about this for now. This young master is very curious why you suddenly have this thought? Even if it's like you said, this young master is very outstanding, but … We haven't known each other for long, have we? Do you know young master Ben? Aren't you afraid that Xuanyuan Linglong will die because of this? Aren't you being a bit too hasty and irresponsible? "
"This …" Xuanyuan Wudi was startled, but also hesitant.
Was he being hasty?
Irresponsible?
Yes.
Xuanyuan Wudi admitted it himself.
Originally, Xuanyuan Wudi had planned to continue observing Teng Yan for a period of time before making this decision. However, time was of the essence. Jing Wuming's arrival made Xuanyuan Wudi's thoughts become even more anxious. He was afraid that if he was too late, the Xuanyuan Family would already be dead. This was why he made such a decision after discussing with Xuanyuan Linglong.
He had no choice.
"Why?" Her sharp eyes looked at Xuanyuan Wudi, and Teng Yan asked.
"This …" Xuanyuan Wudi hesitated.
"I need an answer and an explanation."
"Since Young Master Yan has said so, this old man will no longer hide anything." Xuanyuan Wudi hesitated for a while before opening his mouth to speak. He immediately explained to Teng Yan about Jing Wuming's arrival and the things he had done to remind him. He also explained the concerns and worries of the Xuanyuan Family, as well as the reason and purpose behind betrothing Xuanyuan Linglong to him.
Without holding back.
"Hahaha …" When Xuanyuan Wudi finished speaking, Teng Yan let out a hearty laugh.
Hm?
Xuanyuan Wudi frowned, "Young Master Yan, what are you laughing about?"
"Xuanyuan clan leader, congratulations."
"Congratulations?"
"That's right, congratulations. This young master had the thought of unifying the Chaotic Capital, but … However, this is not my ultimate goal. The Chaotic Capital is merely a resting place for this young master. This is just for the sake of developing this young master's power. As for the existence of your Xuanyuan Family or not, it does not have much of an impact to this young master. Congratulations, you have passed this young master's test. " Teng Yan said with a face full of gratitude.
"Test?" Xuanyuan Wudi was startled.
"Jing Wuming, come out." Teng Yan's indifferent voice directly sounded out.
"Jing Wuming?" Xuanyuan Wudi was startled for a moment, and then he stood up with a look of shock on his face.
"This …" When he saw Jing Wuming and Yin Tian Chou walking out of the rear hall, Xuanyuan Wudi was completely stunned. He couldn't stop thinking and analyzing … He tried to probe, tested, and seemed to have understood something in an instant. His body shook, and that horrified gaze fell on Teng Yan's body.
Probing?
Test?
Everything is just Teng Yan's test for the Xuanyuan Family?
Hiss …
As Xuanyuan Wudi thought about this, he suddenly sucked in a cold breath of air.
Terrifying.
Cold sweat covered his body in an instant.
Probing?
What if the Xuanyuan Family did not pass?
Destroy.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Wudi firmly believed in this. Since Teng Yan dared to make such a probe, then he must have the ability and confidence to deal with the Xuanyuan Family and even eliminate him instantly. From the looks of the situation, Hurricane Mercenaries had already pledged his allegiance to Teng Yan.
This was something he could never have imagined.
His mind trembled!
"Young Master Yan, this …"
"Old man Xuanyuan, I have to admit that you have disappointed me. I was still thinking about how to deal with you, but you …" He actually betrayed me. Well, congratulations to you for making the most sensible choice and choosing a way for your Xuanyuan Family to survive. " Jing Wuming put both of his hands on Xuanyuan Wudi's shoulders and said with a smile.
Survival path?
Xuanyuan Wudi's body suddenly shook as he looked at Jing Wuming with astonished eyes.
Survival path?
And the opposite?
A dead end!
Now, Xuanyuan Wudi firmly believed that if he had agreed to Jing Wuming's suggestion, then the Xuanyuan Family would have been directly annihilated. At this moment, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief while feeling shocked at the same time. Luckily, he didn't act too impulsively, otherwise …
He, who was a powerhouse at the seventh stage of the celestial realm, felt a lingering fear.
At the same time...
A huge doubt also rose in Xuanyuan Wudi's heart.
Jing Wuming had sided with Teng Yan?
Why?
He couldn't figure it out, and of course he wouldn't ask.
"Xuanyuan clan leader, please forgive me. This young master did this because I was helpless." At this time, Teng Yan looked at Xuanyuan Wudi with an apologetic expression and said, "Of course … In the future, we will still work together, and I will fulfill the promise that I promised you. Once I leave the Chaotic Capital, this place … In the future, it will be your Xuanyuan Family's domain. "
"Hehe." Xuanyuan Wudi was speechless.
Forgive?
Xuanyuan Wudi could only let out a bitter laugh.
"Xuanyuan clan leader, you … I do not wish to be estranged from your Xuanyuan Family because of that. After all, we are cooperating and we are equal. " Looking at Xuanyuan Wudi's bitter smile, Teng Yan could not help but say this. It was as he said, he did not wish to be estranged from the Xuanyuan Family.
"I won't, I won't …" Xuanyuan Wudi waved his hand and said.
"However …" He then said.
"But what?"
"Young Master Yan, what are your thoughts on my previous proposal?"
"A suggestion?"
"That's right, it's to betroth Linglong to Young Master Yan. I've been thinking about this for a long time, and now that it's been revealed, what do you think, Young Master Yan?" As Xuanyuan Wudi spoke, his gaze fell on Teng Yan's body, carrying a trace of apprehension and anticipation …
