Chapter 3391: Going to See the Sister-in-Law
Lin Moyuâs sudden interruption displeased Wu Xingguang.
With the Ice Ancestorâs token, he indeed made it difficult for Gu Hanyu to refuse easily, and he clearly sensed Gu Hanyuâs dilemma.
Combined with the information he possessed, he knew Gu Hanjing couldnât possibly come to refuse him in person.
This gave him an illusion of controlling the situation, especially facing someone like Gu Hanyu, the leader of a holy land, which gave Wu Xingguang an extremely strong sense of achievement.
But just as he was about to further boost his sense of achievement, Lin Moyu interrupted his feeling, making him very unhappy.
However, in front of Gu Hanyu, Wu Xingguang still maintained the proper demeanor of a young master of the Wu family. He looked at Lin Moyu, "Friend Lin, this is our third meeting, right? Xingguang still doesnât know Friend Linâs status."
Gu Hanyu said, "Lin Moyu is a guest elder of our Cold Water Holy Land."
Wu Xingguang smiled slightly, "So itâs Elder Lin. Iâve been disrespectful. May I ask what Elder Lin meant by his words just now?"
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Arenât you here to propose marriage? But you were refused by Hanyu, then you took out the Ice Ancestorâs token, saying you must have Fairy Jing refuse you in person. Doesnât that mean your request is made using the Ice Ancestorâs token?"
"If Fairy Jing refuses you in person, shouldnât we take back your Ice Ancestorâs token?"
Wu Xingguang thought for a moment, and it did seem to be that way.
But something felt off. The Ice Ancestorâs token shouldnât be used like this.
This token could make the Cold Water Holy Land do one thing. How could it only be exchanged for a refusal?
But if he didnât use the token, Gu Hanyu would directly refuse, and he wouldnât even have a chance.
Originally, he just wanted to use the token to put Gu Hanyu in a difficult position, then take advantage of the situation. He didnât expect...
Seeing Wu Xingguangâs silence, Lin Moyu continued, "Friend Xingguang, is it or isnât it? Give a clear answer. As the young master of the Wu family, you should be more decisive. Being hesitant will make people laugh."
Provoked by Lin Moyu, Wu Xingguangâs eyes changed noticeably, and his heart was in turmoil. "This isnât right. According to the information I have, Gu Hanjing canât answer my question. Being unable to answer also means being unable to refuse in person."
"Could the information I got be wrong? Or is this guy bluffing me!"
Just as Wu Xingguang was about to speak, his ears twitched slightly. The seventh-level elder behind him transmitted, "This token is worth far more than this. Donât agree rashly. Think about the Cold Water Holy Landâs rules. Use your brain."
Wu Xingguang was slightly startled, suddenly becoming clear-headed.
He wasnât a fool. If he were a fool, he couldnât have cultivated to this level. At most, he could only be considered somewhat impulsive and narrow-minded.
Thinking for a moment, he immediately found a breakthrough.
Wu Xingguang smiled and said, "Friend Lin doesnât have the surname Gu. If I remember correctly, outside elders of the Cold Water Holy Land canât interfere in the internal affairs of the Gu family of the Cold Water Holy Land, right? Actually, my proposal this time, strictly speaking, is a matter between my Wu family and the Gu family. You, an outside elder, are trying to manage it."
Lin Moyu smiled lightly, "Friend Xingguang may not know, besides being an outside elder, I have another identity."
Wu Xingguang said, "What other identity could there be?"
At this time, Gu Hanyuâs cold voice sounded, "Elder Lin is also this Holy Lordâs husband."
What!
Wu Xingguang was thunderstruck, frozen in place, even his expression frozen.
Not just him, but the two seventh-level elders behind him also showed looks of disbelief.
Let alone them, even Gu Nianshui beside them was dumbfounded.
In her view, this kind of thing was even more like a fantasy!
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Fairy Jing is my sister-in-law. Do you think I can manage this matter?"
After several seconds, Wu Xingguang finally reacted, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Jade Holy Lord is the Holy Lord of the Cold Water Holy Land. The Cold Water Holy Landâs rules say the Holy Lord canât marry."
Gu Hanyuâs voice was icy, "Whether the Holy Lord can marry or not is an internal matter of our Cold Water Holy Land. Thereâs no need to explain to you."
Lin Moyu said, "Friend Wu, rather than worrying about the Cold Water Holy Landâs rules, you should continue talking about your marriage proposal. You havenât answered the previous question yet. With the Ice Ancestorâs token, what exactly is your request?"
"If you have a request, just say it. If it can be done, Hanyu definitely wonât refuse."
"If it canât be done, sorry, even if the Ice Ancestor personally intervenes, what canât be done still canât be done."
"Our Cold Water Holy Land is very reasonable. We never do despicable things like forcing disciples to marry, let alone make some despicable requests."
Lin Moyu was smiling at this moment. His smile, in Wu Xingguangâs eyes, was naked mockery, as if saying: What youâre doing is really despicable, not presentable.
At this time, a flame of jealousy was burning in Wu Xingguangâs heart. Lin Moyu could actually marry Gu Hanyu. What qualifications did he have?
While he could only propose to Gu Hanjing, and others werenât even willing to agree.
Naturally, marrying Gu Hanjing was far inferior to marrying Gu Hanyu. Wu Xingguang knew clearly which was better.
Under Lin Moyuâs smile, Wu Xingguang felt he was being pushed into a corner.
He now only had two choices. One was to continue using the token to make his previous request, insisting on having Gu Hanjing refuse him in person.
The second was to take the token and slink away, pretending this never happened.
But if he did that, he would completely lose face. When he returned to his family, he could imagine what kind of attitude those old fellows would give him.
The Wu family wasnât like the Cold Water Holy Land. Internal competition was fierce. He could easily become a discarded piece.
In the Wu family, a Dao Venerable without potential didnât count for much.
Moreover, after this matter spread, it would be even more difficult for him to propose to other forces.
So actually, he only had one choice: to gamble that Gu Hanjing couldnât refuse him in person.
But what if he gambled wrong?
"Whatâs wrong, Friend Xingguang still canât make a decision? Why donât you go back and think about it, then come back when youâve decided."
Lin Moyuâs tone was very sincere, with the appearance of a nice guy.
But in Wu Xingguangâs eyes, it was full of mockery and playfulness.
Wu Xingguangâs head suddenly heated up, all hesitation disappearing in an instant. He gritted his teeth and said, "Thatâs right, I just want Fairy Jing to say it in person. This is my request."
Lin Moyu glanced at Gu Hanyu. Gu Hanyu gave Lin Moyu a look, indicating that he should make all the decisions.
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "If thatâs the case, then you go back and rest first. Fairy Jing is in closed cultivation. Weâll go call her out of seclusion."
This reason was very appropriate and reasonable, without any flaws.
Wu Xingguang asked in a deep voice, "How many days do I have to wait?"
Lin Moyu said, "Thatâs hard to say. It depends on what stage Fairy Jingâs cultivation has reached. If sheâs just about to break through, it might take a bit longer."
Wu Xingguang said coldly, "So youâre saying I might have to wait decades or centuries?"
Lin Moyu said, "It wonât be that long. Although we canât tell you an exact time, it shouldnât be too long. Since youâve come to propose marriage, surely you have at least this much patience?"
Wu Xingguang snorted, "I hope it wonât be too long."
Wu Xingguang left angrily. Things had come to this point, and he could only wait.
There was no way he could fall out with Gu Hanyu here. That would be suicide.
After they left, Gu Hanyuâs face was full of worry.
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Donât worry, letâs go see your sister first."
