Capítulo 765: Chapter 767: East Island, Qiancheng Family (Part 5)
Mu Ruyue smiled faintly, “Very well, then I’ll trouble the Qian Cheng Family Master.”
“Xiong Da,” Qian Chengyunlong glanced at Xiong Da and said, “arrange a residence for this young lady immediately.”
“Yes, Family Head!”
Xiong Da looked at Mu Ruyue curiously, What was that seal she was talking about just now? There’s a seal inside the Young Master’s body?
However, Xiong Da was naturally single-minded and couldn’t understand the question; he shook his head in annoyance and led Mu Ruyue into the back courtyard…
Inside Junzhou Mansion, under the luxurious seating, sat a middle-aged man with stern brows and a serious expression. He swept his cold gaze over the young man standing before him and said expressionlessly, “Qian Chengyan, go back, Yan’er will never marry you!”
Qian Chengyan’s complexion changed, and he said hurriedly, “Continent Leader, you said you wanted two Millennium Medicine plants as the dowry, I spent months finding the Millennium Medicine, why are you reneging on your word now?”
In these two months, he had suffered so much, been so tired, and had many close encounters with death, but for the woman he loved, he had endured it all.
Who knew that in the end, the Continent Leader would go back on his word in the blink of an eye. What then had all his efforts been for?
“Enough!” Jun Lintian’s brows sank, and he said coldly, “Qin Fei of the Qin Family is now only twenty-one, and he has already reached the realm of Innate Perfection, and he is also a low-level Mortal. What qualification do you have to compare with him? Unless you surpass him, I will never give my daughter in marriage to someone like you, a worthless person!”
The word ‘worthless’ seemed to deeply stab at Jun Lintian’s heart; his fist clenched tighter, his good-looking face turning pale.
“You’re saying, if I surpass him, you’ll give Yan’er to me in marriage?” Qian Chengyan’s voice was choked as he stared intently at Jun Lintian.
“Correct,” Jun Lintian’s lips curled up in a smile, and he chuckled coldly, “Half a month from now, I will personally oversee the duel between you two. If you can defeat Qin Fei, I will give Yan’er to you in marriage!”
Half a month to surpass Qin Fei was simply an impossible task…
Qian Chengyan’s heart sank heavily as he raised his head to look at Jun Lintian’s austere features: “Fine, I accept your condition. I’ll do anything for Yan’er, and I hope you won’t go back on your word this time.”
Jun Lintian let out a cold laugh: “Rest assured, if you prove yourself to be better than Qin Fei, I have no reason not to give my daughter to you in marriage…”
Better than Qin Fei? That was simply impossible!
Qian Chengyan of the Qian Cheng family was known as the failure of Junzhou; at the age of nineteen, he had yet to reach even the Innate level. What was he if not a failure?
Qian Chengyan did not say anything more and turned to walk towards the door, but just then, a figure in a hurry crashed into his gaze…
“Brother Qian Cheng!”
With a thud, the young girl crashed into Qian Chengyan’s arms; she raised her beautiful face, her eyes misty with a thin layer of tears, “Brother Qian Cheng, I don’t want to marry Qin Fei, I knew you would come here to take me away…”
“Yan’er!”
Qian Chengyan’s heart trembled, holding the delicate body in his arms tightly. The setting sun’s light enveloped the embracing figures, as if time had frozen in that moment…
Jun Lintian’s face darkened: “Someone come, who let the young lady out? Take her back to her room immediately; without my order, she is not allowed to come out!”
