Lady You smiled, finding this decision appropriate.
“Let’s return quickly and get some well-deserved rest. We still have to enter the palace with the clan later,” Lady You instructed.
“Alright.”
Meanwhile, at the Qian Family’s residence.
Although Qian Ziang hadn’t paid particular attention to the Shen family’s petition, he was, after all, engaged to Shen Ningyu. So, he couldn’t help but inquire about the oute.
In his opinion, it was just a formality, and he assumed that Shen Ningyu must have emerged victorious.
“Tell me, was it Ningyu?” Qian Ziang confidently asked. He didn’t expect to expend much effort on this matter, as he believed the answer wouldn’t be any different.
The servant, a bit apprehensive, replied with a trembling voice, “Young Master, no, it was Shen Lianxue.”
“I knew it…” Qian Ziang muttered unconsciously. However, after giving it some thought, he stared blankly at the servant and asked, “Is something wrong with your head? That useless Shen Lianxue won?”
Qian Ziang was utterly perplexed by the news.
“She won. Furthermore, her cultivation has already reached the Martial Warrior level. Lady Ningyu is no match for her at all. With a single move, she can almost send Lady Ningyu flying,” the servant replied truthfully, taking the risk of some punishment for his honesty.
“What!! A warrior?!” Qian Ziang exclaimed in shock.
Even he was only at the Sixth Heaven of the Martial Master Realm. Shen Ningyu was slightly ahead of him, at the Seventh Heaven of the Martial Master Realm.
Their marriage was supposed to solidify his standing within the Qian Family.
However…
If Shen Lianxue possessed the cultivation of a warrior…
Certain matters needed to be reconsidered.
For instance, the original plan to enter the palace and request marriage would have to be put on hold. They would wait and observe.
If Shen Lianxue could perform even better, then perhaps he would indeed marry her.
With his decision made, Qian Ziang instructed his servants to inform his parents, understanding the importance of reaching a mutual understanding on this matter.
Shen Lianxue and Shen Ningyu remained oblivious to Qian Ziang’s choice.
Shen Lianxue merely wished that things would progress more swiftly; otherwise, it would be a waste of time here.
She had already been on this mission for several days.
Gu Chaoyan finally breathed a sigh of relief upon arriving at the clan.
Lady You couldn’t acpany them into the palace; instead, she had to follow the clan elders.
In retrospect, it was fortunate that Lady You didn’t acpany them. This way, she could have more time to cultivate—something that Lady You desperately needed at this point.
As soon as Gu Chaoyan arrived at the clan, she spotted Shen Ningyu, who was already there.
She wondered why Shen Ningyu was present.
The clan’s elder emerged and explained, “Lianxue, since this is your first time in the palace, there may be many things you’re unfamiliar with. Therefore, you must bring Ningyu with you this time so that she can guide you. Besides, the Qian Family is seeking Ningyu’s hand in marriage, so she has to go to the palace. You are all sisters from the same branch, so I trust you won’t mind.”
The clan elder had clarified everything.
Gu Chaoyan did mind, but there was little she could do about it.
If she had to go, then so be it.
This time, after entering the palace, it wouldn’t be easy for anyone to claim her as their master.
Furthermore, Gu Chaoyan had already ruled out the Shen Family, so she had no intention of supporting them.
Shen Ningyu had lost face in the petition, yet she still insisted, “So what if you won? Brother Ziang still wishes to marry me..”
