Chapter 2148: 2147: The Arrival of the Zhou Family and the Marriage Proposal

Capítulo 2148: Chapter 2147: The Arrival of the Zhou Family and the Marriage Proposal

Since father became the Emperor, his power has grown so immense that he can hardly listen to ordinary people’s words.

Especially this time, the matter was so significant that if he offended the Zhou Family, it could lead to being killed and the kingdom and family being destroyed.

Yet, Father still gritted his teeth and agreed.

This is enough to imagine the great power of Xu Zimei.

Such power doesn’t even require action; just his aura alone is enough to make everyone feel terrified.

To Yan Shanhai, it was also a helpless move.

He had just sensed a killing intent from Xu Zimei.

If he offended the other party, he feared the other party would rage and attack the next moment.

Yan Shanhai could feel this, so he was forced to agree.

If he offended the Zhou Family, he might die after some time.

If he offended Xu Zimei, he would die immediately.

So in this matter, he had a clear understanding.

……

“Alright, I am going to train. Don’t bother me unless it’s necessary,” Xu Zimei directly said.

“As for the Zhou Family, let them come to see me directly if they arrive.”

“Under… Understood,” Yan Shanhai quickly nodded.

Before Xu Zimei left, he glanced at Yan Najia.

At this moment, she was completely dumbfounded.

Originally, she had some small schemes to ruin her sister’s reputation this time. Perhaps the Zhou Family, in anger, would accept her instead.

But she didn’t expect there was someone hiding in her sister’s room, and that person was too formidable.

Now she was in a dilemma.

When Xu Zimei glanced at her, she broke out in a cold sweat and didn’t dare to meet his gaze.

“Sister, I’m sorry,” Yan Najia quickly apologized.

“It’s all because I was blinded by obsession. If you’re unhappy, just slap me.”

Yan Qingqiu snorted coldly, but couldn’t be bothered to deal with her.

Of course, she knew what kind of person her sister was.

From childhood to adulthood, the two never got along.

But she was always better than her in every way. Her sister’s schemes and plots were always like trying to draw water with a sieve, ending in nothing.

Xu Zimei also couldn’t be bothered to kill such an ant; it would dirty his hands.

He slowly walked into the training room.

In the next few days, he planned to adjust his state, bringing his Divine Soul and body to their most optimal state.

Then, he would go challenge the Brahma Demon Great Emperor.

Of course, during this, he could use the Zhou Family as a stepping stone.

After all, he was challenging the Brahma Demon Great Emperor, which was a form of sparring and a honing of his path.

Defeating all heroes of the world.

And not the intention to kill the Brahma Demon Great Emperor.

These are two different matters since there was no personal vendetta between the two.

……

Upon seeing Xu Zimei enter the Holy Fire Hall, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

“Qingqiu, when did you meet that senior?” Yan Shanhai cautiously asked.

“Just these past few days, he suddenly appeared in my room, and I helped him heal,” Yan Qingqiu replied.

“By the way, I gave him the Kylin gemstone.”

“What…” Yan Shanhai was startled.

The Kylin gemstone was greatly beneficial for training, and he usually couldn’t bear to use it.

He would sometimes only use a little at a time.

And now, it was actually stolen by his daughter and given to someone else.

“How much did you take?” Yan Shanhai still held some hope, asking.

“I took it all,” Yan Qingqiu answered naturally.

“The more Kylin gemstones, the faster the recovery.”

“Right, Father, do you have more Kylin gemstones?”

Yan Shanhai’s vision went dark, and he almost fainted.

His heart was bleeding!

To others, Kylin gemstones might just be a rare item.

But to people at their level, it was a Supreme Treasure.

He wanted to scold his daughter, but thinking about it, that senior was still in the hall.

He dared not lose his temper.

He just had to swallow the bitter pill in silence!

Yan Shanhai forcibly calmed himself down, taking a few deep breaths.

Then he said, “Forget it, it’s given already.”

“You just take good care of the senior these days. As for future matters, let’s take it one step at a time.”

Actually, at this moment, Yan Shanhai also had no idea.

After all, he could not afford to offend either side, being caught in the middle was the hardest position to be in.

This matter was related to him.

He couldn’t extricate himself!

Sighing a few times, Yan Shanhai could only shake his head and leave.

Yan Najia, alone, also did not dare to stay, faking a few laughs, she also excused herself and left.

……

Upon returning to the main hall, Yan Qingqiu expressed her gratitude to Xu Zimei face to face.

“I didn’t expect you to be so powerful.”

“I apologize for the previous offenses.”

“No need for that. I said I’d help you resolve the problem, so I will help you,” Xu Zimei said.

“You really can defeat the Brahma Demon Great Emperor?” Yan Qingqiu was somewhat skeptical this time.

She even began believing Xu Zimei.

Unlike before, when she thought Xu Zimei was boasting.

Though not much time had passed, the same sentence now had two different meanings.

……

“Among the strong, no one knows until they fight,” Xu Zimei said.

“Sometimes, victory or defeat is not important.

What matters is what we gain and comprehend from it.”

“Oh,” hearing Xu Zimei’s words, Yan Qingqiu half-understood.

“Anyway, no matter what, thank you.”

……

In the following days, Xu Zimei enjoyed rare peace.

Without his instructions, no one in the Rage Flame Kingdom dared disturb him.

His spirit reached an extreme.

Xu Zimei’s aura grew stronger day by day, though his realm remained unchanged.

After the Ten Thousand Path, it was basically stabilized.

However, once he fully mastered it, his power would grow even more.

Finally, a week later.

The people of the Zhou Family arrived in the Rage Flame Kingdom.

As the suitor’s family, the Zhou Family came with a grand entourage.

The marriage delegation was about several hundred people, carrying various gifts, banging drums, and making a lively entrance into Cosmos Burn City.

This time among the people who came from the Zhou Family, the two highest-status individuals were Mr. Zhou, the direct son of the Zhou Family’s head.

Zhou Yu!

The second person was the Family Head’s younger brother, named Zhou Changgeng, Zhou Yu’s uncle.

……

“Father-in-law,” upon seeing Yan Shanhai, Zhou Yu politely greeted him.

Yan Shanhai’s expression was somewhat unnatural.

But he still politely invited everyone into the Imperial Palace.

Everyone engaged in small talk.

Only to hear Zhou Yu say with a smile, “Father-in-law, where’s Qingqiu? Why don’t I see her?”

“Mr. Zhou,” Yan Shanhai said awkwardly.

“Just call me Xiaoyu, Father-in-law,” Zhou Yu replied with a smile.

“Xiaoyu, some things have happened, and I don’t know how to tell you,” Yan Shanhai said.

Beside him, Zhou Changgeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

He laughed, “Brother Shanhai, we are all family, say whatever you need to say.”

“There’s no need to feel embarrassed. If our Zhou Family can help, we will not hesitate.”

“It’s not about help; it’s that something happened with Qingqiu,” Yan Shanhai deeply sighed.
