Chapter 1131: Chapter 592: Yao Xin Is Fa Hai! (Part 2)
If you want to compete for this, the Shangguan Clan must first possess the power of the ten major Immortal Sects.
âAs long as Brother Chen doesnât mistreat my sister in the future.â
âBrother Shangguan, rest assured, I wonât mistreat Ah Hong in the future.â She will soon be his woman, and Chen Yuan is not the type to be cold-hearted or unfaithful.
âYour words put my mind at ease.â
Simplifying the matters of forming an alliance with the Shangguan Clan, both Chen Yuan and Shangguan Yu were actually very happy in their hearts, having known each other since humble beginnings, their friendship was not shallow.
No one wishes to see their friendship turn to enmity because of some interests.
After hosting Shangguan Yu for a few hours and sharing a meal, Shangguan Yu stood up to say goodbye. Chen Yuan walked him to the gate before returning to continue his practice, preparing for the trip to the South State.
On the other hand, ever since returning from the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, Shangguan Hong had been impatient, pacing back and forth in the inn, wondering why Shangguan Yu hadnât returned yet.
What was the outcome of the affair?
No one even sent a message or anything.
It wasnât until the night grew dark that Shangguan Yu finally hurriedly arrived at the inn where he resided. As soon as he pushed open the door, Shangguan Hongâs face lit up with a smile, she quickly offered a cup of warm tea and gently asked:
âBrother, youâre back.â
âWere you anxious waiting?â Shangguan Yu teased, expecting Shangguan Hong to shyly avoid the question, but instead she nodded seriously:
âI was anxious, quickly tell me, whatâs Brother Chenâs intention?â
Shangguan Yu gazed at her for a moment, lightly sighed, and sat down slowly.
Shangguan Hongâs heart skipped a beat, a wrenching pain surged within her chest, she gritted her teeth, turned away, blinked her eyes, then turned back and said with a smile:
âItâs alright, Brother Chen is now famous worldwide, with overflowing power, itâs normal for him not to notice me. Donât let it damage the bond between you two brothers over me.
I, Shangguan Hong, actually⊠actually donât like getting married, Iâm wholly dedicated to Martial Arts. Who knows, one day I might become the first female in our Shangguan Family to achieve Yang Transformation.â
She indeed liked Chen Yuan greatly, especially when he saved her out of despair, and her feelings reached their peak then.
Later, the matter of Liangzhou City spread to Shuzhou. If not for Shangguan Tiehong and Shangguan Yu working together to confine her at home, she would have really gone to Liangzhou City alone with her sword.
Everyone needs to have a hope.
But that doesnât mean she has no dignity. Liking someone is one thing, but she doesnât want to be so humble. If they are emotionally connected, itâs ideal, but if forced, she would rather remain alone.
Her personality is somewhat similar to Shen Yanshuâs, both having a heroic spirit.
âItâs late, brother, you should rest early. I⊠I need some fresh air; recently, having father around has suffocated me.â
Shangguan Hong smiled and turned to leave.
Just as she pushed open the door, Shangguan Yuâs voice quietly reached her ears:
âReally willing to give up?â
âDaughters of Jianghu, never care about trivial romance, he has great aspirations, and so do I.â
Shangguan Hong took a step out of the room.
âIf thatâs the case, forget it. I was about to say that this marriage was settled. Since you donât want it, then forget it. Go, go, get some fresh air asâŠâ
Before Shangguan Yu could finish his words, Shangguan Hong, who had stepped outside, retracted her foot and slammed the door closed, drawing her sword from her waist and glaring at Shangguan Yu:
âShangguan Yu, how dare you mock me?!â
âIâm not mocking you, merely lamenting that girls grow up and canât be kept. Didnât expect you to have such aspirations, as your brother, Iâll support you. Being a heroine is better than being someoneâs little wife, right?â
Shangguan Yu chuckled.
While this was said, Shangguan Hongâs sword shimmered with cold light, impulsively stabbing out a sword. Her embarrassment just now was exposed entirely, it was definitely Shangguan Yuâs deliberate tease!
âLittle sister, donât be impulsive, do you still want to marry Chen Yuan?â
With the sword tip just a foot from his eyes, Shangguan Yu quickly responded.
Swishâ
The sword returned to its sheath.
Shangguan Hong stared at him, speaking solemnly:
âWhatâs the matter?â
âThe matter is settled, Iâll talk it over with father and draft a marriage contract. However, the exact timing for the marriage hasnât been set. Probably not in the next year or two.
Brother Chen has too many affairs to handle, and no leisure time for such matters.â
âReally?â
âReally.â
âSo, am I already his fiancĂ©e now?â
Shangguan Hong struggled to contain her joy, trying her best to maintain a cheerful expression.
âWait a few more days.â
âPhewâŠâ
Shangguan Hong let out a breath and suddenly sat down, covering her face:
âThank you, brother.â
âThough this matter is settled, thereâs another matter that requires your opinion.â Shangguan Yu sat opposite her, tapping the table.
âWhat matter?â
âBrother Chen told me, about being his legitimate wife you mightâŠâ
Shangguan Hong raised her head:
âIâm not suited for that, as long as I can be by his side.â
âYou are, after all, the Shangguan Familyâs legitimate daughter, canât you have a little ambition?â Shangguan Yu saw her immediately agree, without any reserve or hesitation, and felt a bit of disappointment.
âSo, brother, can you make me Chen Familyâs legitimate wife?â Shangguan Hong asked suspiciously.
âNo.â
âThen why are you saying this?â
Shangguan Yu: ââŠ..â
âYou havenât married out yet, but are already favoring him, what will happen once you do marry?â Shangguan Yu coughed twice, feeling his sister was a bit ungrateful.
