Sovereign’s Great Path

And why did Jing Wuming incite the Xuanyuan Family to deal with Teng Yan together?    

All of these were arranged by Teng Yan.    

Why?    

Try it out!    

Teng Yan wanted to probe the Xuanyuan Family, to give him a chance, and at the same time, give him a chance. After all, he and Xuanyuan Family had always been cooperating, and Xuanyuan Aotian had even indirectly saved his life back then. Now that Teng Yan wanted to unify Chaotic Capital, the Xuanyuan Family would definitely be a block stone. However, if Teng Yan attacked the Xuanyuan Family, he wouldn't be able to kill him easily.    

This was why there was this test.    

If Xuanyuan Family agreed to it, then don't blame Teng Yan for being merciless.    

If Xuanyuan Family chose to continue cooperating with Teng Yan, then … Teng Yan would keep his promise.    

Of course, there was no guarantee that anything else would happen.    

For example … Not helping each other;    

But Teng Yan completely did not expect that before Xuanyuan Family had even made a decision, Xuanyuan Aotian would actually take the initiative to run over and inform him. This was completely unexpected for Teng Yan and he did not even think about it. After all, Xuanyuan Aotian was also a part of the Xuanyuan Family, and although he would not bring any direct losses to the Xuanyuan Family by doing this, but... but it has already harmed the interests of the Xuanyuan Family, and may even push the Xuanyuan Family into an irreparable calamity.    

If he had, Teng Yan would have made preparations long ago.    

If there was a terrifying power behind Teng Yan that Xuanyuan Linglong had guessed at;    

If Teng Yan struck back first after hearing this news;    

If Teng Yan never retaliated against the two forces, Xuanyuan and Hurricane, after he escaped.    

Many ifs...    

However, Xuanyuan Aotian didn't seem to have that many ifs to worry about.    

He just wanted to save Teng Yan's life.    

Such an act;    

enough for anyone to admire;    

This debt of gratitude …    

It was enough to move anyone.    

Teng Yan was no exception.    

"Young Master Yan, why are you looking at me like that? Hurry up and leave. If you're too late, I'm afraid it'll be too late. " He was truly worried that if Teng Yan still did not leave, then when the two great forces were going to work together to deal with him, Teng Yan would not be able to escape even if he wanted to.    

"Ao Tian, you have remembered your debt of gratitude." A firm voice came from Teng Yan's mouth.    

"Hmm?" Xuanyuan Aotian was startled.    

"Young Master Yan, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's hurry up and leave."    

"From today onwards, you, Xuanyuan Aotian, will be my, Teng Yan's, brothers, even in death." Ignoring Xuanyuan Aotian's urging, Teng Yan's firm voice sounded, and his face even carried a trace of unshakeable firmness and perseverance.    

"Report …" Suddenly, a voice was heard.    

"What is it?" Looking at the city guards in front of him, Teng Yan asked.    

"City Lord, Xuanyuan Wudi requests an audience."    

"What?" Without waiting for Teng Yan to speak, Xuanyuan Aotian's astonished voice sounded out.    

"You, you, what did you say? Grandpa... Grandfather is here? " Xuanyuan Aotian stared in shock at the city guards' panicked voices, and his entire being revealed an anxious look, as he walked back and forth, both of his hands rubbing tightly together.    

He couldn't wait!    

"Yes." The city guards said.    

"It's over, it's all over, this time it's all over …" Xuanyuan Aotian's anxious voice sounded out, but in the end, his gaze landed on the City Guards once again, "Right, how many people did grandfather bring?"    

"How many?" The City Guards were stunned.    

"How many people came together with Xuanyuan Wudi?"    

"Eh?" He's alone. "    

"Alone?"    

"Yes."    

"No one else? For example, Jing Wuming? "    

"Nope."    

"Hu …" Xuanyuan Aotian could not help but heave a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Since his grandfather had come alone, this meant that the Xuanyuan Family would not make a move against Teng Yan for the time being. This also meant that Teng Yan still had a chance to escape. But, very quickly, Xuanyuan Aotian's face changed. "Not good, I need to find a place to hide quickly." In the next second, Xuanyuan Aotian's urgent voice came out.    

Shua...    

Without the slightest hesitation, Xuanyuan Aotian began to search for a place to hide within the main hall.    

He was on a rampage;    

He panicked;    

Xuanyuan Wudi is here?    

If Xuanyuan Wudi found out that he was here, he would be in for a lot of trouble!    

As for Teng Yan?    

Right now, he was being temporarily ignored by Xuanyuan Aotian.    

Hehe.    

Seeing the Xuanyuan Aotian in front of him, and seeing his panicked appearance, Teng Yan could not help but laugh indifferently. Looking at Xuanyuan Aotian, Teng Yan seemed to see himself. Wasn't the once fearless and fearless Young Master Teng the same when facing his valiant grandfather?    

What was so similar about this scene?    

"Ao Tian, go hide in the rear palace." After which, Teng Yan smiled and said.    

"Back hall?" Xuanyuan Aotian was startled.    

"Right behind us." Teng Yan said as he pointed behind him. The main hall of the City Lord's Mansion was separated into two parts, the front hall and the back hall; there was only a wall between them, and that was the front hall. Teng Yan was currently at the right side of the hall, and behind the door was the back hall.    

"Oh." Without any hesitation, he immediately ran over. At the same time, he did not forget to remind Teng Yan, "Young Master Yan, you must not let your grandfather know that I have been here. Remember, you must keep this a secret." With that, Xuanyuan Aotian ran into the rear hall.    

Ah...    

A scream followed.    

"Jing …" Jing … "Jing Wu..." The surprised, panicked, and puzzled voice rang, and Xuanyuan Aotian did not make a sound.    

Hehe.    

Facing this scene, Teng Yan smiled indifferently.    

— —    

After a while, Xuanyuan Wudi appeared in front of Teng Yan.    

Xuanyuan Family;    

At this moment, looking at the Xuanyuan Wudi in front of his eyes, Teng Yan had a difficult feeling, especially before he knew what decision the Xuanyuan Family would make, this feeling became even more intense. Towards Xuanyuan Aotian, other than being grateful, Teng Yan was also moved. If Xuanyuan Family chose to continue cooperating with Teng Yan, then everything would be alright.    

But...    

What if Xuanyuan Family chose to kill him?    

Teng Yan really did not know what to do.    

Destroy Xuanyuan Family?    

How would he face Xuanyuan Aotian then?    

After calming his mind, Teng Yan stopped thinking about this, "What business does Xuanyuan clan leader have with this place?" Looking at Xuanyuan Wudi, Teng Yan smiled as he asked, acting as if he did not know anything.    

There was no answer to the test.    

He had to continue probing.    

"This old man has a very important matter to discuss with Young Master Yan." Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi's firm voice came out, his face revealing a serious expression. Xuanyuan Wudi's expression made Teng Yan's heart tighten. Teng Yan seemed to be able to think that this matter might be related to Jing Wuming's previous suggestion, or perhaps … Xuanyuan Family had already made her decision.    

What could it be?    

Teng Yan didn't know.    

Although it was very likely that the Xuanyuan Family would choose to stand on Teng Yan's side when he appeared here, until that moment, no one knew what the result would be, and Teng Yan was no exception. So even though Teng Yan had a calm face at the moment, he was inevitably a little nervous in his heart.    

He did not wish to become enemies with the Xuanyuan Family.    

"Oh? "What is it?" An astonished voice came out from Teng Yan's mouth.    

"Haha, could it be that Young Master Yan intends to let this old man speak?" Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi said with a smile.    

"En..." This young master is rude. " Teng Yan said awkwardly.    

"Please have a seat Xuanyuan clan leader."    

"Hur hur." Xuanyuan Wudi smiled indifferently and sat down.    

"Servants, serve tea." As Teng Yan said that, he also sat down opposite of Xuanyuan Wudi.    

"Xuanyuan clan leader, you can say it now right? What exactly happened?" As he watched the maid who was serving the tea leave, Teng Yan picked up the cup of tea in front of him and took a light sip.    

"Hehe, no rush, no rush." Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi said with a smile.    

"Not in a hurry?" Teng Yan frowned.    

"I wonder if Young Master Yan knows our Ling Long?" Ignoring Teng Yan's startled expression, Xuanyuan Wudi smiled and asked.    

"Xuanyuan Linglong?"    

"That's right."    

"What happened to Xuanyuan Linglong?"    

"Hehe, our Ling Long has always been talented and smart since she was young. Furthermore, she is beautiful and has a good character. Now … Now that I'm old enough to be married, it's become a sore point in my heart. Not to mention Linglong, even this old man doesn't like those that are too poor, but they are too good? This Chaotic Capital … I really cannot find someone who is worthy of Linglong, and I don't want to make Linglong suffer, so for this matter, I have been feeling very troubled recently. " Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi said with a bitter face.    

Hm?    

Teng Yan frowned, he could not figure out what Xuanyuan Wudi actually wanted to do.    

Heh … Hehe …    

Teng Yan could only smile at Xuanyuan Wudi, and allowed him to continue, it was considered perfunctory, although what Xuanyuan Wudi was saying now could be said to be ridiculous, and he did not even know what he was going to do. But Teng Yan was not in a rush, he believed that Xuanyuan Wudi would get to the point sooner or later.    

Shua …    

As he thought about it, Teng Yan picked up the teacup and took a light sip.    

Calm, calm, and contented;    

"It can be said that this old man couldn't eat for Linglong's sake, so he couldn't sleep and only wanted to find a suitable home for Linglong. "Unfortunately, even if the heavens don't want to make a beauty out of it, there's still no suitable candidate until Young Master Yan appears …" Xuanyuan Wudi continued on his own as he spoke, and as he spoke, his gaze couldn't help but fall on Teng Yan's body.    

"This Young Master?"    

Teng Yan could not help but be taken aback, as he looked at Xuanyuan Wudi with surprise while holding a teacup: "What do you want to talk about with this young master?"    

"This old man wants to betroth Linglong to Young Master Yan, I wonder what Young Master Yan thinks?"    

Puff …    

Hearing that, the tea in Teng Yan's mouth instantly sprayed out.    

Teng Yan was stunned...
