"Alright, since this is the case, let’s put an end to this matter. However, in light of the Revitalizing Pill of imasurable value that Young Brother Ye has given , you may make a request. As long as it’s within my power, Situ Liuyun will definitely grant it," Situ Liuyun said, looking at Ye Luo with a smile on his face.
Instantly, many people in the hall inwardly cursed Situ Liuyun as a sly fox. His words clearly showed he wanted to get on good terms with Ye Luo. After all, even though Ye Luo no longer had Yellow Rank Elixirs, he was backed by an Alchemist capable of concocting Yellow Rank Elixirs—a trendous resource.
For both the substantial forces of the secular world and the Hidden Sects, befriending an Alchemist was surely a fortunate event, which was why Situ Liuyun was treating Ye Luo so favorably.
Ye Luo’s lips curled slightly upwards. With his intelligence, he naturally understood Situ Liuyun’s intentions and then said, "Elder Situ, since you’ve put it that way, I indeed have a small request. I want to ask Elder Situ for sothing, I wonder if I might?"
"What? Just say it," Situ Liuyun replied promptly.
"I want that Snow Lotus," Ye Luo stated directly.
Situ Liuyun was taken aback, looking at Ye Luo in amazent.
"Impossible, that Snow Lotus is priceless, given as a congratulatory gift to my grandfather by the Family Head of the Mu Family. How could it be given to you?"
Situ Wentian, with a cold expression, chided him. A hint of hostility flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Ye Luo.
"Mr. Ye, if you need such dicinal herbs, our Mu Family actually has a few more. We could give one to you," Mu Qingsong said, his eyes shimring as he looked at Ye Luo.
"Yunchao, go and get that millennium Snow Lotus," Situ Liuyun ordered directly, and Situ Yunchao, after glancing at Ye Luo, turned and brought over the box containing the millennium Snow Lotus.
"Brother Ye, let this millennium Snow Lotus be a gift of our first eting, I’m giving it to you," Situ Liuyun said.
"Thank you, Elder," Ye Luo said with a smile, swiftly taking the box. His Clairvoyant Eye swept over it, confirming the millennium Snow Lotus inside.
"Now then, let us all get ready to dine," Situ Liuyun said, looking around at everyone.
"Wait a mont, Father. I have sothing to say,"
Situ Yunchao suddenly spoke up.
"Oh? What is it?"
Situ Liuyun’s gaze turned toward Situ Yunchao.
"Father, while talking with Brother Han, I felt that it’s ti for Ao to find a wife, and Brother Han’s daughter, Miss Han ngxi, seems very suitable in all aspects. I wish to have them engaged. What do you think, Father?"
Situ Yunchao spoke indifferently, but his words caused many people present to be visibly shocked, including Ye Luo and Han ngxi, who was standing by Han Haomin’s side.
"Elder Situ, I also think that my daughter ngxi and Young Master Ao are very compatible. I hope the Elder can help bring this union to fruition," Han Haomin said, stepping forward.
"Dad, what are you doing? I didn’t know about this!" Han ngxi’s face looked extrely upset as she hastily spoke.
"Don’t speak. I’ve already decided. You just need to obey," Han Haomin said, glancing at Han ngxi and speaking softly.
"How can you do this?" Han ngxi’s face darkened, her bright eyes filling with an angry light.
"Hmm, Miss Han is indeed quite attractive, and since Situ Yunchao has chosen her for Ao, there shouldn’t be any problems. I agree then; we should pick a day and get them engaged, and then have them marry. It just so happens I’d like to hold a grandson. Wen Tian is occupied with Tianzong and can’t fulfill this task, so now it’s up to you, Ao."
Situ Liuyun’s face carried a hint of a smile as he looked at Situ Ao. The latter had an indescribable expression, said nothing, and only nodded his head.
"No, I don’t agree."
Han ngxi spoke out loudly.
"Shut your mouth, ng Xi, co back here." Han Haomin’s expression changed, and he shouted sternly at Han ngxi.
For a mont, the eyes of everyone in the great hall turned to Han ngxi.
"I won’t. Dad, I don’t know why you didn’t even discuss it with and decided my future husband on your own, but no matter what, I won’t get engaged to this Situ Ao." Han ngxi spoke with determination.
"You... you’re driving to an early grave. What’s wrong with Mr. Situ Ao? Isn’t he good enough for you? Moreover, you’re the daughter of Han Haomin. I have the right to decide who my future son-in-law will be. Stop making a scene," said Han Haomin, his face darkening.
At this, Situ Liuyun’s expression turned ugly, and he glanced at Han Haomin. "What do you an by this, Family Head Han?"
"Please don’t be angry, Elder Situ. My daughter is just a bit playful, don’t mind her. She is my daughter, and I’m the one to decide her marriage," Han Haomin hurriedly said to Situ Liuyun.
"No, I absolutely disagree, and... and I already have a boyfriend."
As Han ngxi spoke, she revealed a bombshell at the end.
"What? You already have a boyfriend? How is that possible? Who is it?" Han Haomin cried out, his expression changing drastically.
"Yes, I really have a boyfriend. It happened while I was in Zhonghai, and he is Ye Luo!"
Han ngxi said this and extended a hand, pointing directly at Ye Luo, then ran to his side and grabbed his arm, showing a face full of affection.
In that mont, everyone in the great hall from the five major families, as well as people from the three ancient martial arts families and others, were shocked, even Ye Luo himself hadn’t reacted.
No one had expected the situation to take such a sudden and dramatic turn, leaving Han Haomin especially stunned.
Ye Luo, on the other hand, wore a baffled look. What was this girl up to?
However, when Ye Luo saw Han ngxi winking at him repeatedly, he instantly understood; she was using him as a shield.
But being this shield seed likely to offend the Han Family and the Situ Family, which didn’t seem worth it.
Still, looking at Han ngxi’s cute and dainty face, feeling the sensation of her full peaks pressing against his arm, and glancing at Situ Ao, Ye Luo felt that it would be a travesty to let her marry him, like a fresh flower upon a pile of dung.
Driven by a sense of duty to protect every beauty, Ye Luo reluctantly agreed, wrapping an arm around her slender waist. Smiling at Han Haomin, he said, "Father-in-law, ng Xi really is my girlfriend. We just haven’t told you before, my apologies."
Pff!
Suddenly, Han Haomin felt like he was about to spit blood from anger, swaying, he was supported by those beside him. His face looked as if he had eaten sothing disgusting, pointing at Han ngxi and yelling, "Han ngxi, how can you do such a thing?"
