Lin Feng and Xiao Yan wouldn’t be so bored such that they would eavesdrop on the conversation of their disciples. But as they expanded their supernatural awareness, the words of Tang Jun and Duan Muhong naturally landed in their ears.
If they were talking about sothing else, Lin Feng and Xiao Yan would not have bothered with them. But as they heard sothing about the mbers of the Gu Family causing trouble, Lin Feng and Xiao Yan were naturally more attentive towards what they said.
But after listening to Duan Muhong’s words, Lin Feng was a little speechless as he looked at Xiao Yan, "Isn’t all these what I joked with you in the past. You told them?"
Xiao Yan did not know whether to laugh or cry, "I only said it to Tian Cang for fun."
Just like the relationship between Xiao Yan and Lin Feng, Xiao Yan and Tang Jun’s relationship were also very relaxed. Normally, they liked to joke with each other for fun.
But who knew that Duan Muhong listened from one side and rembered it to heart, and even thought that they were speaking for real.
Tang Jun beca worried as he looked at Duan Muhong now. He had the urge to cry now too.
He was very tough when it ca to facing those on the outside, but he was very gentle towards those within the sect. Especially since Duan Muhong was his own Imdiate Disciple, he could only laugh bitterly, "This is a joke between Grandmaster and Master. Don’t take it seriously."
"Joke?" Duan Muhong blinked in confusion.
Tang Jun sighed, "Qing Ye Holy Woman is outstanding and lovely. Those who secretly admire must not be little, but none of them will dare to challenge your Grandmaster."
"Your Grandmaster’s powers are shocking. Before he ford he Immortal Soul, he was already capable of resisting Immortal Soul Third Level cultivators. I am not bragging about this, but this is really happened in the past. Those who know about this are more than just a few and it will be easy to verify this too. If your Grandmaster has co to propose marriage, how can those who want to cause trouble not check the most basic of stuff first before they do anything?"
"Let’s not talk about whether anyone will have the guts to challenge your Grandmaster. Even if the Ancient Longevity World has an equally exceptional individual like your Grandmaster, he won’t dare to find trouble so foolishly."
Duan Muhong blinked his eyes, "Why is that so?"
Tang Jun extended his thumb out and pointed to the room behind him, "That’s because your Grandmaster did not co alone. Your Great-Grandmaster is even here, which ans that the entire Celestial Sect of Wonders is here. Before we ca, we even tell them about our reason for the visit, thus all the mbers of the Gu Family should know why we are here."
"Since your Great-Grandmaster is here, if anyone from the Gu Family dares to cause trouble, the elders of the Gu Family will stop them."
"Honestly speaking, if your Grandmaster was an independent cultivator and if the cultivators in the Ancient Longevity World don’t know about his background, then it will really be a joke. But now, it’s more than just a joke."
Tang Jun said, "As for the objection towards the marriage of your Grandmaster and the Qing Ye Holy Woman, I’m afraid that it may co true. But it’s not because your Grandmaster is a toad going after a swan’s at. There’s more to the matter than just their marriage, which makes it complicated."
As Xiao Yan’s First Disciple, Tang Jun was naturally more aware of news from the higher levels of managent.
"But even so, this will only be discussed within the Gu Family and not expressed to others, especially those who want to cause trouble for your Grandmaster." As Tang Jun spoke finish, Duan Muhong asked, "Why?"
Tang Jun sounded indifferent, "That’s because we are the Celestial Sect of Wonders and your Great-Grandmaster is the leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Furthermore, your Grandmaster is the eldest disciple of the Celestial Sect of Wonders."
"There’s only three situations whereby the Gu Family will object intensely if your Grandmaster proposes marriage this ti."
Tang Jun straightened three fingers at Duan Muhong and said, "Firstly, it’s that we have a deep enmity with the Gu Family; Secondly, your Grandmaster is trying to force the Qing Ye Holy Woman to be his wife even though she is unwilling; Thirdly, it’s that the junior disciples of the sect cause huge trouble in the Ancient Longevity World that leads to both parties becoming eyesores to each other."
"If these three situations do not happen, the most that your Grandmaster will experience is only a polite rejection. There won’t be any unpleasant things happening."
He slapped the head of Duan Muhong, "Out of the three situations, which do you think will happen?"
Duan Muhong shook his head, "I don’t think anyone of them will happen. But we have to be wary of the third situation."
He pondered for a while before saying, "But, without causing trouble, they can also challenge or ask for pointers from Grandmaster."
Tang Jun laughed, "Not bad, you are quite clever. But it won’t be today, as they have done it before. Your Great-Grandmaster has co to the Ancient Longevity World for the first ti today, but it’s not the first for your Grandmaster or ."
"The elders of the Gu Family have tested your Grandmaster extensively. They have been very impressed with his performance."
"Even the rising talents of the Gu Family have sparred with more than once."
Duan Muhong seed excited at this point, "Master, so did you win or lose?"
Tang Jun recalled, "I did win, but there are strong cultivators from the Ancient Longevity World. There’s one junior under the Qing Ye Holy Woman called Gu Liancheng, who is quite outstanding."
As he said till here, Tang Jun touched his lower chin, "Talking about this, I recall that Gu Liancheng said to that since his battling skills are inferior to mine, he wants to challenge my pill cultivation skills..."
As Tang Jun and Duan Muhong spoke on the other side, Lin Feng was laughing as he looked at Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan laughed back, "It’s just a kid’s talk. Let’s not fault him."
Lin Feng pointed his finger at him, "You must know where to joke around and who to joke around with. Did I say those jokes to you in front of Yuanfang?"
Xiao Yan sighed. At this point, his door opened and Xiao Zhener walked in with Lin Tong.
Lin Tong did not miss Xiao Zhener less than Xiao Yan did. When she arrived at their temporary residence, Lin Tong hoarded Xiao Zhener and kept on chattering to her.
As she saw Xiao Yan, she laughed, "Daddy, don’t fret. I shall pass Mommy to you know."
"It’s Godfather, not Daddy." Xiao Yan replied her. As Lin Tong grew up, she beca more and more mature. While she beca more receptive to other things, Xiao Yan’s correction of her in this matter often fell on deaf ears. Over ti, Xiao Yan was actually numb to this already.
Fortunately, when others were around, Lin Tong was more obedient. At those tis, she would call him Master.
Xiao Zhener and Lin Tong greeted Lin Feng. Xiao Zhener said softly, "Elder Lin, less than 2 hours the both of you ca here, Yan Nanlai, the Qing Ning Holy Man, Wu ngqi and Lin Daohan as well as a bunch of junior disciples also visited the Ancient Longevity World.
"Ninth Granduncle has gone to receive them already. I think they will arrive at the Longevity City very soon."
Lin Feng smiled, "No worries. I can roughly guess their reason for being here."
Yan Nanlai was also hosted by Gu Jun and the other Gu Family mbers when he and his disciples ca. They were also given temporary residences to stay in. After both parties conversed for a while, the cultivators from the Great Void Sect were led to their rest areas. They would only discuss official matters the next day.
On the second day, Gu Peng guided them as Lin Feng brought Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi, Yang Qing and Li Yuanfang to the central pavilion of the Ancient Longevity City.
The current Emperor Gu, Gu Jun, and the two elders, Gu Cheng and Gu Yuankai, were already seated in the pavilion.
As both parties greeted each other, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Comrade Gu, I believe that my reason for coming here today has been relayed to you earlier."
"I have no other intentions of being here than to propose marriage to your daughter on behalf of my eldest disciple, Xiao Yan. His parents have already passed and his grandfather is very elderly, thus as his elder, I am here to help him propose marriage. If I am being rude, please forgive ."
Xiao Yan did not speak and allowed Lin Feng to take care of everything. Whereas Xiao Zhener was also seated quietly on here seat.
Lin Feng continued saying after looking at Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhener, "In a twist of fate, my eldest disciple and your daughter grew up together and are childhood sweethearts. After they grew up, they beca more and more romantically attached to each other. Right now, the both of them have ford the Immortal Soul. In the future, if they get together and spend the rest of their lives together, it will be a joyous matter."
Gu Jun replied, "Master Lin, you are too kind. Your disciples is much more outstanding than my daughter."
Gu Cheng did not speak, whereas Gu Yuankai said, "The both of them have ford the Immortal Souls and their foundation are strong. But they are still young. In terms of an ordinary human’s age, they are not young. But to cultivators, they still have a long way to go."
"It’s good that they are in love with each other. But there’s still much ti. They should spend more ti with each other first. With more ti, they can beco closer to each other in the future."
He turned to look at Xiao Zhener and smiled, "Zhener, please don’t bla . To be together, you need a steady relationship and can’t rely on passion alone. It’s not that that I don’t approve of the both of you together. I just hope that your paths in the future will be smoother."
When the age of a cultivator increases till a certain level, it will no longer be the sa as an ordinary person. There’s no limit to his age. When he cultivated, it could take months, years, decades and even hundreds and thousands of years.
Whether a person’s state of mind is stable or not, it relied on experience rather than age. From this perspective, when one cultivated for 50 years, it was no difference from sleeping for 50 years.
Thus, it’s right to claim that Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhener are youngsters. But Gu Yuankai was obviously trying to act dumb right now.
