538 The Second Sword Spirit, Done! (1/2)
Whoo!
The space nearby vibrated slightly as a gray shadow appeared.
”Head master! The third master and the fifth master have brought the person back! And, the first lady has also accompanied along!” The gray shadow had a very light and vague voice; if not knowing about his existence at all, it would be very hard to tell where the voice was actually coming from.
The middle aged man ordered, ”Settle them down nicely. Also, get someone to watch over them 24/7. Without my order, they are not allowed to come out at all!”
”Understood!”
”Alright! Find Ye for me. Let them interact a bit…Perhaps, they would grow some kind of liking for each other. Although the wedding has been settled, if they can actually like each other a bit, it would even be better. With the relationship, no matter who comes here, they would not change anything.”
The middle aged man was slightly worried, fearing that something would happen to jeopardize the done deal. And as far as he was concerned, nothing could happen to it. Once the marriage had been finalized, regardless of whether it was the Yuwen family or himself, they would be benefited a whole lot. After all, if the two demi demons with perfect demi demon bloodline got together, the children they had would also carry the bloodline. If they managed to have two children, it would mean the Yuwen family would have four demi demons with perfect bloodline. And, these four would all be on his side; by then, his great grandad and his ancestors would also be on his side.
”Head master, do you think we should give the first lady of the Murong family the Shadowless Poison? With that, the success rate of all this would even be higher, and that little gal would also follow our orders better.” The grey shadow suggested.
The middle aged man thought for a bit, then nodded, ”You will handle this matter yourself. Remember, be discreet!”
”Yes, sir!”
”Alright! Go get on your business then!”
Hearing him, the grey shadow disappeared without a sound.
Turning around, the middle-aged man in purple robes looked up at the bloody curved moon in the sky, ”I wish we do not have to get to that stage. But, if we do, then do not blame me for being cruel. This marriage has to happen. I will not allow any failures in this. Whoever dares to stop it or jeopardize it, he would be going against me.”
The Yuwen family, as the main family, had the greatest population of them all: there were a shocking four hundred of them. Because of the high population, there were indeed a lot of buildings. Within hundred miles of radius near the deep cliff were countless buildings, such that one could barely even see the end of them.
Inside one of the fancy looking yards located on the edge of the core area, two extremely beautiful ladies were chatting while sitting on the stone chairs.
The lady who was closer to the huge tree seemed slightly older, being in her early forties. She carried the aura which would only be carried by mature women. On her earlobes, she wore emerald colored jewelry; the long fancy-looking dress of hers was also dark green in color. In front of her was a younger girl in a purple dress. There was a light, see-through cloth on her face. Through that, one could tell that she was similar looking as the mature woman.
But in comparison, she was even more beautiful. That pair of purple pupils of hers were like two light purple crystal stones. Her lashes were curled, full and long, and her hair were long and thick like a waterfall.
She was indeed Murong Qingcheng.
”Qingcheng, do you think that brat will really come?” The older woman did not sound hopeful.
Murong Qingcheng seemed to be slightly distracted as she sipped her tea and said, ”Since father has gone looking for him, then he would definitely come. I know him.”
”Oh? For you?” An ambitious smile appeared on the lady's face.
Murong Qingcheng blushed, ”Not certainly. Anyway, he will come, but probably not entirely for me.”
”It'd be best that he comes. Otherwise, you will really have to marry that Yuwen Ye.” The lady was not happy about it, ”This Yuwen family is so rude and aggressive! They said that they were inviting you to come here, but we sure felt the pressure. Luckily, your father was not there that day. Otherwise, he would have definitely had a little scrub with the third and fifth masters of the Yuwen family. And with his power alone, I am afraid he would not be able to fight them off.”
Murong Qingcheng said with a firm tone, ”Regardless if he comes or not, I will not marry Yuwen Ye. In the worst case scenario, I will just die then.” Stopping for a bit, she continued to say, ”Mother, why did you follow me? You being here, I fear that they would use you as a leverage against me.”
The older lady was indeed the mother of Murong Qingcheng, the wife of Murong Zhishui, called Su Ruhui. She forced a smile and said, ”You think if I didn't come here, they would let you go easily? I am afraid it would even be worse then. I am the former third lady of the Su family after all, so I don't think they would be too out of the line…”
There were twenty something families in the whole demi demon family, and the Su family was indeed one of them. Different from the Murong family, the power of the Su family was way more powerful, and could be ranked in the top five. So, no matter how brutal and rude the Yuwen family was, they would have to respect the Su family to a certain level.
”Plus, I also want to meet the former lover of your father.” Su Ruhui really loved Murong Zhishui. She used to be the third lady of the Su family, and when she chose to marry him, it was also opposed by blockages and negative voices. But, she managed to make it through. However, throughout this whole time, there was always a knot in her heart, because she knew that there was someone else in Murong Zhishui's heart; it was indeed the first lover of his.
Murong Qingchen said curiously, ”What would you say when you see her?”
”I will not say anything. I just want to see it for myself, what kind of person she is. I am very good at judging people, you know?” Su Ruhui laughed. ”Oh right! I have not met that guy before. When he comes here, I will have a good look at him for you!”
…
The wind was blowing heavily, sharp like blades.
Four seven-meters-long Red Eye bird beasts flew at an extreme speed amongst the clouds. Because of its extreme speed, a thick layer appeared two meters in front of the flying beasts, made with air being compressed together and forming into a natural protection.
Inside the air layer, Ye Chen and the rest sat on the back of the bird beasts together.
