Chapter 1079 Competition to recruit a son-in-law
"Is it Emperor Xia who wants to see me and doesn't want you to tell me in advance?" Ye Liuyun asked again.
М
"You deceived two princesses by yourself, and you still haven't met their parents?" Ling Shuang said with a smile.
"Meeting my father-in-law? You want such a grand occasion?" Ye Liuyun saw that there were quite a few young people arriving one after another.
There are many more in the banquet hall. Just looking at the seats, it can accommodate four to five hundred people.
"So, it depends on your performance! But don't worry, I will always be with you!"
"You stay with me?" Ye Liuyun was a little confused.
Ling Shuang explained to Ye Liuyun: "I am your trophy. I was won by you, so of course I have to accompany you. Not my sister! So she is the protagonist tonight. Can you let your father promise her to you? It depends on your performance!”
At this time, the fourth prince also came over and said to Ye Liuyun with a smile: "It depends on your performance tonight!"
"What are you all talking about? How should I behave?" Ye Liuyun was still confused.
"Can you give me some hints?" Ye Liuyun had no choice but to ask Ling Shuang.
But Ling Shuang gently took Ye Liuyun's arm and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, just do your best!"
Ye Liuyun felt a little angry when he saw that she was going around and around without getting to the point.
"What exactly are you going to do?"
Ling Shuang was a little angry when she saw Ye Liuyun, so she had to send a message to him: "Father, there is a competition to recruit a son-in-law!"
But on the surface, he calmly pretended to persuade Ye Liuyun: "Oh, why are you in a hurry? You will know later. Come on, I will take you to find a place to sit down."
Ye Liuyun immediately understood. Someone should be monitoring Ling Shuang's words to prevent her from leaking in advance.
So Ye Liuyun also pretended to be unhappy and followed Ling Shuang to find a place to sit down.
Ling Shuang stayed beside Ye Liuyun obediently, holding his arm and sitting with him.
Ye Liuyun asked: "Did your father let you be with me?"
"Yes! Don't you have a bet with the Holy Son of the Demon Clan? Even if my father wants to give me to the Demon Clan, he can't!" Ling Shuang said with a smile.
At the same time, she also sent a message to Ye Liuyun: "So my sister is in much more trouble!"
Ye Liuyun nodded and said no more.
No matter whether Emperor Xia is deliberately testing him or trying to embarrass him, he will not let others win Xia Qiong away.
Almost all of the people invited to the banquet were descendants of princes and disciples of big families.
The first thing they did when they arrived was to discuss the royal family's contest for the ninth princess to recruit a son-in-law.
"It seems that he was just hiding it from me!" Ye Liuyun was even more certain that at this time Emperor Xia deliberately gave him power.
But these people were very surprised when they saw Ling Shuang took off her veil and stayed beside Ye Liuyun like a bird.
"Is this the Thirteenth Princess? Who is that boy next to him?"
"Haven't you heard about the bet between the Demonic Son and King Yonglie?"
"So that's King Yonglie? So young?"
Soon, the two of them became the focus of everyone's attention.
Ling Shuang didn't care, and even helped Ye Liuyun pour wine from time to time, acting very well-behaved.
"It's a bit much! You're not like this usually!"
Ye Liuyun was a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Isn't this outside, to give the man face?" Ling Shuang replied with a smile.
Ye Liuyun also smiled and stopped caring about her, but was looking at the state of these people.
"There are still a few first-level Earth Lords!" Ye Liuyun was also shocked.
He saw several young people sitting silently, but they had already reached the level of earthly respect.
"If I didn't have any skills, Tian Qiong would really be snatched away by others!"
After taking a rough look, Ye Liuyun stopped looking and concentrated on chatting and drinking with Ling Shuang, making a group of men envious.
Ling Shuang was very happy to see that Ye Liuyun could still concentrate on accompanying her under such circumstances.
It's an extraordinary feeling to chat and drink with the one you love under the spotlight.
The two of them became more and more engaged in chatting, completely ignoring the people around them.
As more and more people arrived, the seats were almost full.
At this time, a loud bell-like voice sounded.
"The Emperor Xia is here!"
"Xia Huang?"
"Emperor Xia actually came in person?"
"And Princess Xiao?"
Everyone stood up in surprise.
Ling Shuang pulled Ye Liuyun and pulled Ye Liuyun up.
"That's the biological mother of my father and sister!" Ling Shuang introduced Ye Liuyun in a low voice.
Ye Liuyun met Emperor Xia for the first time and found that the prince looked exactly like him. However, Emperor Xia seemed to be in his forties, and his appearance was much more majestic and stable than the prince.
Xia Qiong followed behind, saw Ye Liuyun at a glance, and looked towards her.
In the past few days, Xia Qiong had not slept well because Emperor Xia was competing in martial arts to recruit a son-in-law, and she looked very haggard.
Looking at Ye Liuyun, his eyes were also full of melancholy.
Ye Liuyun looked at Xia Qiong firmly, reassuring him.
Although the two of them did not use their spiritual consciousness to communicate, Ye Liuyun's firm gaze immediately made Xia Qiong feel relieved, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
When other people saw the Ninth Princess smiling at Ye Liuyun, some people immediately expressed their dissatisfaction and cast hostile glances at Ye Liuyun.
"I believe that everyone who was invited here today knows the purpose of this banquet." Emperor Xia said in a low baritone voice, which was quite pleasant.
Ye Liuyun glanced at him and cursed in his heart: "I don't know!"
At this time, Emperor Xia also looked at him, smiled slightly, and continued: "This banquet is to choose a son-in-law for the ninth princess through a competition!"
After Emperor Xia finished speaking, a ring rose in the middle of the banquet hall.
This arena is a special space. It doesn't look big, but after entering, the space inside is indeed huge, enough for martial arts practitioners to perform normally.
Emperor Xia continued: "Everyone who receives the invitation is eligible to participate. There are no restrictions on the competition. God-level weapons, treasures, ferocious beasts, etc. can all be used.
The outcome is determined by one side surrendering or suffering casualties. Whoever wins the final victory will marry the Ninth Princess! "
Emperor Xia's words were simple and clear, and the rules for recruiting a son-in-law were explained in just a few sentences.
Although Xia Qiong had already been mentally prepared, she still looked at Ye Liuyun nervously.
At this time, the royal family also sent an elder to serve as the referee of the game.
After the elder stood up, he directly asked everyone: "Which young hero will fight first?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Liuyun took over: "I'll do it!"
Ye Liuyun was afraid that Xia Qiong would be worried, so he took the initiative to take the stage.
Moreover, he felt that since Emperor Xia wanted to deliberately embarrass him, he would not let Emperor Xia "disappoint"!
Therefore, he was the first to stand up and step onto the ring.
And everyone knows how difficult it is to fight from beginning to end!
