Fang Lin was completely stunned, before suddenly turning around. He was met with Han Luoyun’s mocking expression.
Fang Lin was on the verge of crying. He had only intended to irritate Yang Yanyu, not truly marry her.
Once Han Luoyun spoke up, the entire situation changed. Even Yang Yanyu was taken aback.
There was no way not to panic. If Fang Lin alone proposed the marriage, to anyone it would be a joke and no one would take it seriously.
But with Han Luoyun speaking up, the matter became completely different. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Han Luoyun was representing the Purple Mist Sect. He was proposing marriage to the royal family on behalf of the Sect Master of the Purple Mist and Fang Lin’s master. This had tremendous weight and Yang Jianye would seriously consider it.
“Father, are you really planning to marry me off to him?” Yang Yanyu spoke up hastily, her face full of contempt for Fang Lin.
Yang Jianye thought it over for a while and said: “Yanyu, Sect Master Han is right. You have indeed reached the age to be married off. I think Fang Lin is a decent person and a match for your status.”
Those words stunned all present youngsters.
Especially Fang Lin, who had widened his eyes and barely resisted the urge to leap up.
This had escalated quickly, the Emperor was serious. What was he supposed to do now?
Yang Pojun was slow to respond, still baffled by how his father was about to betroth Yang Yanyu to Fang Lin so suddenly.
Yang Xuanfeng had an extremely baffled expression, glancing between Yang Yanyu and Fang Lin. He found the situation bizarre but didn’t know what to say.
Naturally, the most exaggerated reaction came from Yang Yanyu.
She stood there, eyes wide in disbelief, looking at her father.
Matched by status? What did that mean? Was he really going to betroth her to Fang Lin?
At that moment, Fang Lin and Yang Yanyu shared the same thought—absolutely not!
But since Fang Lin was the one who started this, it was hard to figure out a solution. Should he retract his proposition? Wouldn’t that mean he was mocking Yang Jianye? Even with the best temper, he would surely get angry.
“Father! I would rather die than marry him!” Yang Yanyu gritted her teeth.
Fang Lin chuckled in his heart. Who even wanted to marry you?
Yang Jianye furrowed his brows: “Mind your manners. Seniors decide matters like marriages.”
Yang Yanyu’s eyes welled up with tears. She was genuinely panicked and afraid that Yang Jianye would betroth her to Fang Lin.
Seeing this situation, Fang Lin quickly took advantage of the situation to say, “Your Majesty, considering that the princess dislikes me, let’s forfeit the matter. I hope you do not blame the princess. All the mistake is on me.”
Yang Yanyu was dumbfounded. How could there be someone as shameless as him? He was the first to propose the marriage, and now all the words were coming from his mouth, making it sound like Yang Yanyu was in error.
Other people also looked at Fang Lin with strange expressions, particularly Yang Jianye. His teeth itched with frustration, he wished he could slap Fang Lin away.
This kid, he is truly hateful. Did he come here just to make fun of me?
Han Luoyun glanced at Fang Lin and chimed in, “I almost forgot, Fang Lin seems to have an unusual relationship with the daughter of the Dugu family. Perhaps Miss Dugu would come to find Fang Lin in the future. It seems my disciple and Yanyu have the destiny, but not the luck.”
On hearing this, Yang Jianye’s eyes betrayed a hint of surprise. Han Luoyun’s words implied quite a lot of information.
The Dugu Family—Yang Jianye certainly knew which Dugu Family he was referring to. There’s only one Dugu Family among the Nine Countries, the Dugu Family of the Xuan Country.
And Fang Lin has an unusual relationship with the daughter of the Dugu Family? What is this unusual relationship?
Anyone could guess; it was definitely a romantic relationship.
While the truth of the matter was still unclear, if it was true, then Fang Lin might become the son-in-law of the Dugu Family.
If Fang Lin became the son-in-law of the Dugu Family, wouldn’t the Purple Mist Sect get a connection with the Dugu Family?
The Dugu Family was no ordinary family, but one of the most prominent families in the Xuan Country. They were almost at par with the Xuan Country’s royal family and even the combined power of the three great forces of Daqian could not hold a candle to the Dugu Family.
If the Purple Mist Sect could cling onto the Dugu Family, wouldn’t they skyrocket? Wouldn’t the balance of power among the three great forces of the Qian Country be thrown off?
Yang Jianye felt a deep concern. He suspected that Han Luoyun had said it deliberately to provoke him.
At that moment, Yang Jianye wanted to settle it all by ruthlessly forcing Yang Yanyu to marry to Fang Lin even more. This way, Fang Lin wouldn’t be able to marry the daughter of the Dugu Family, and the Purple Mist Sect couldn’t cling to the Dugu Family.
However, this sort of thing could only be pondered over. Let alone that his daughter was vowing to die first, even if he forcefully pushed her to Fang Lin, what if Miss Dugu from the Dugu Family got angry and came with her experts to slaughter his daughter? It could even implicate the royal family.
After much consideration, Yang Jianye sighed, “Nevermind, if this is so, I won’t force it.”
Yang Yanyu breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart soon became uneasy. She cast a sideways glance at Fang Lin, finding him entirely absurd.
Could someone like Fang Lin attract Miss Dugu from the Dugu Family? Was she blind? If she wasn’t, her taste was simply terrible-
Mentioning the Dugu Family reminded Fang Lin of Dugu Nian. That girl had been home for a while, how was she doing? Did she eat well? Sleep well? Was she unhappy?
Tut tut tut! Fang Lin spat three times, feeling ashamed. Of all people to think about, why did he think of that repugnant Dugu Nian who was worse than Yang Yanyu.
At this moment, far away in the Xuan Country, Dugu Nian was quietly training in her family’s residence, when she suddenly sneezed several times.

“Fang Lin, let’s head to the arena.” Yang Xuanfeng said. Even though the peculiar byplay happened in the middle, the agreement for their martial arts competition remained unaffected.
The only change was Yang Xuanfeng’s mindset.
Before, he decided to have a contest with Fang Lin simply to gauge Fang Lin’s ability and whether he was worthy of his substitute position.
Now, Yang Xuanfeng wanted to vent out his sister’s humiliation on Fang Lin.
Immediately, everyone headed towards the arena.
Meanwhile, the news of Yang Wanshan being expelled from the royal family and his imprisonment for thirty years was spreading throughout the Qian Country, causing a shockwave among the imperial court.
Those ministers who were originally supportive of Yang Wanshan, distanced themselves from him instantly.
And Yang Wanshan’s downfall made other princes feel the chills. Despite the punishment befalling on Yang Wanshan, other princes felt empathy for him.
The fate of Yang Wanshan today might become their fate tomorrow.
Yang Wanshan’s mother didn’t end up in a much better state. She was stripped of her noble consort title and sent to the cold palace.
There was a larger gathering at the arena, all present to witness the competition between Yang Xuanfeng and Fang Li
