Chapter 346: Competing for Marriage Proposal
In the majestic ancient palace, the luminous pearls inlaid on the walls illuminate the palace as if it were daytime.
But at this time, due to Lei Mulan's anger, a chilling air filled the hall.
Master Haoyue stood expressionlessly below, unable to tell what he was thinking.
After a while, Lei Mulan's face gradually returned to normal, his eyes shone with wisdom, and he slowly said:
"Let them in!"
As soon as these words came out, the talented people immediately retreated out of the hall as if they had been granted amnesty.
After a while, Yuan Zheng and Yan Changhe were seen slowly entering the main hall.
After everyone had seen the ceremony, Lei Mulan ordered his attendants to give him a seat, and then asked directly:
"The three of you came here late at night. Do you have something important to discuss?"
Hearing this, Blood Spirit Saint Yan Changhe's eyes flashed, he took two steps forward and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone:
"To be honest, this junior is here. In addition to watching the ceremony, I also have a happy event that I would like to discuss with your alliance!"
As soon as he said this, Lei Mulan, who was expressionless at the top, picked up a cup of spiritual tea and took a sip, then asked pretending to be surprised:
"Oh! Happy event? My dear, why don't you tell me about it?"
When Yan Changhe heard this, he immediately took out a jade slip and said with a faint smile;
"To be honest, Yan has admired Miss Lei for a long time, so he took this opportunity to propose marriage to Alliance Leader Lei. Here is a letter of appointment from Master You Ming, and Alliance Leader will know it at a glance."
As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone could react, Wu Xun on the side suddenly took two steps forward, took out a jade slip and said tit for tat;
"It's a coincidence. This junior fell in love with Miss Lei at first sight, and also wants to propose a marriage contract to Alliance Leader Lei. Here is a letter of engagement from Master Yunyin!"
Seeing this, Yan Changhe's eyes flashed coldly, and he glared at Wu Xun coldly. But the latter showed no fear at all, and still stood there with a calm expression.
For a time, the atmosphere in the venue was quite tense.
As for the one above, Lei Mulan's eyes flashed with a trace of sarcasm, and then he raised his hand to take two jade slips at the same time, sinking his consciousness into them and began to scan them.
After a full moment, Lei Mulan slowly raised his head and said with a slight smile:
"Fellow Daoist Netherworld is really willing to spend a lot of money! Even small veins of spiritual stone are willing to be used as betrothal gifts!"
After hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
Obviously, they never expected that the Blood Spirit Demon Sect would be so courageous. In order to win over the casual cultivator alliance, they would not hesitate to take out veins of low-grade spiritual stones!
You must know that in the endless demon sea cultivation world where resources are scarce, things like spirit stone veins are completely top-level strategic resources, and they are matters of luck that are related to the lifeline of the sect's development.
As the most powerful sect among the three major forces of the human race, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect is not weak at all even when the Qianyuan Sect and Taiyi Sect join forces to confront each other.
Unless forced, it is absolutely impossible to hand over the spirit stone veins to others!
The reason for this situation is that the Rogue Cultivator Alliance is now taking advantage of the situation and is naturally a major threat to the Qianyuan Sect and the Blood Spirit Demon Sect.
Between the two major sects, no one wants to see the casual cultivator alliance fall to the other camp, lest they themselves fall into crisis.
And among them, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect is the most anxious.
After all, if the Qianyuan Sect, Taiyi Sect, and the Lei Family form an offensive and defensive alliance, the Blood Spirit Demon Sect will definitely be isolated and in danger of extinction at any time.
Therefore, even the arrogant Nether Demon can only try his best to win over the casual cultivator alliance.
After the shock, Wu Xun, who was originally calm, couldn't help but look extremely ugly at this moment.
Even Yuan Zheng on the side couldn't help but look surprised.
And with Yan Changhe's eyes twinkling, he quickly struck while the iron was hot and said:
"As long as your alliance agrees to the marriage contract, not only will there be small veins of spirit stones and many treasures as betrothal gifts, our Blood Spirit Demon Sect can also form an offensive and defensive alliance with the Lei family. I hope Senior Lei will consider it carefully!"
As soon as this statement came out, Wu Xun, who saw that the situation was not good, immediately refuted:
"The Blood Spirit Demon Sect has wiped out countless families in recent years and committed heinous crimes. If the Lei family marries the Blood Spirit Demon Sect, it will destroy the business signs of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance! I hope Senior Lei will think twice!"
When Yan Changhe heard this, he immediately couldn't help but retorted:
"Although our Blood Spirit Demon Sect is a demon, even if we kill people, set fires, wipe out families and slaughter sects, we still do things openly and courageously. Unlike your Qianyuan Sect, who talks about benevolence, justice and morality, and claims to be a righteous man, but secretly does everything dishonestly. , they are all just a bunch of hypocrites!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Xundang was about to refute.
But Lei Mulan, who was standing up, saw the two people below him arguing endlessly, and couldn't help but his face darkened and he shouted:
"Quiet! Are you two here to propose marriage or to form an alliance?"
As soon as these words came out, Wu Xun and Yan Changhe, who were originally quite blushing, suddenly showed a sarcastic look, and did not dare to do any more outrageous things.
Lei Mulan turned his head slightly, looked at Yuan Zheng who had been silent, and asked slightly curiously:
"Is your kid also here to propose marriage?"
After hearing this, Master Zhan Chi shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly:
"It's really helpless to do something you know you can't do! I, Old Yuan, come here to hand in a mission and watch a show by the way!"
As soon as these words came out, Yan Changhe and Wu Xun were both slightly startled, as if they had vaguely realized something.
Upon seeing this, Lei Mulan, who was above him, couldn't help but nodded appreciatively, and then said with a smile:
"I didn't expect you to be such a wise man. In that case, you can go back and report to Grandma Jing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Zheng didn't hesitate at all. After bowing, he turned around and left. A moment later, he turned into a light and disappeared into the horizon.
Seeing this scene, Lei Mulan turned around again, looked at Wu Xun and Yan Changhe, and said with expressionless dignity:
"My daughter is devoted to cultivation and has no intention of practicing together. There is no need to mention this matter! As for the alliance, you go back and tell Youming and Yunyin that Lei needs to consider it!"
Hearing this, Wu Xun and Yan Changhe didn't say anything more. Instead, they turned around and slowly retreated after paying respectful respects.
When the ancient hall fell into silence again, the silent Master Haoyue could not help but ask worriedly:
"In the Endless Demon Sea, the three major sects have been in a tripartite situation for a long time. They would not be willing to see the rise of a fourth force. The leader is so perfunctory. Isn't he afraid that the three major sects will join forces to suppress him?"
The leader Lei Mulan heard this and immediately explained confidently:
"Now the Qianyuan Sect has joined forces with the Taiyi Sect to oppose the Blood Spirit Demon Sect. The two sides have been in constant friction and resentment for a long time. It is impossible for them to stop fighting and make peace immediately.
It is wishful thinking to unite in a short period of time to suppress our loose cultivator alliance!"
