Chapter 650: Lü Family Comes to Propose Marriage (Part 2)
“I advise you to be more respectful to my father, otherwise, the main doors of this HongHua Sect might become your gateway to hell today.”
Cheng Hong Ling walked forward with a chilling tone. Her cultivation had already reached the Shentong Realm, and she wouldn’t fear Lü Yi in a one-on-one fight.
“Refusing your marriage proposal is toying with you? Do you really think you’re an emperor? This is the Cultivation World, not the mortal world. There are no imperial edicts here.”
Qi Huang scoffed sarcastically.
“Hmph, in the Cultivation World, the Immortal Tablet is equivalent to an imperial edict. Your name is already on our family’s Immortal Tablet. Do you really think you can escape my grasp?”
Lü Yi clenched his fist with a confident expression.
“That’s right. We made such a big fuss to propose marriage, which is already giving you plenty of face. Don’t be ungrateful!”
“What do you mean ‘parental consent and a matchmaker’s words’? Even if we wait at home, on the sixth day of the sixth month, you’ll still have to obediently come over.”
Lü Fei and his wife said arrogantly.
“Since that’s the case, then you should go back and wait properly.”
Qi Huang again issued them an order to leave. She didn’t have time to get entangled with these annoying flies.
“We’re all family. If there’s anything to say, let’s talk it over properly. Why should we hurt our harmony?”
Lü Gao quickly tried to smooth things over because he gradually realized the importance of this future daughter-in-law. Once they could master the method to strengthen Spiritual Sense, the Lü family would soon be invincible in the Cultivation World.
“Brother Cheng!”
Lü Gao bowed to Cheng Yuan again and introduced, “You don’t know the specific situation of the Lü family yet, do you? Let me introduce it to you. The Lü family is one of the Nine Great Immortal Forces in the Cultivation World, and it is also the third largest noble family. Not only does our clan have the Immortal Tablet
hidden, but my father is also an ultimate expert at the Heavenly Punishment Realm. Therefore, our status in the Great Wall Empire is supreme. Even the royal families of the mortal world have to bow and scrape to us.”
“Not interested!”
Cheng Yuan still firmly shook his head.
“Why? If your daughter marries my son, she will be the future mistress of the Lü family. Her status will be higher than that of an empress of a nation, and she will also acquire inexhaustible resources. With such generous conditions, you shouldn’t refuse.”
Lü Gao questioned him relentlessly.
“Because my daughter is excellent enough and doesn’t need to latch onto a powerful family. So, as long as she is happy.”
Cheng Yuan affectionately glanced at Cheng Hong Ling and Qi Huang.
“Are you really not going to consider it again?”
Lü Gao’s expression also started to darken.
“There’s no need. Marriage between a man and a woman requires mutual consent. Therefore, I hope Brother Lü won’t force it.”
Cheng Yuan acted like a gentleman.
“You refuse a toast only to be force-fed a forfeit!”
Lü Gao completely tore off his disguise, and his expression became ferocious.
“Just as my son said, the Immortal Tablet is the imperial edict of the Cultivation World. Your daughter’s name is already engraved on the Lü family’s Immortal Tablet, so she can’t fly away even with wings. I didn’t need to go through so much trouble to propose marriage, but since you’re ungrateful, then don’t expect these betrothal gifts.”
Lü Gao looked at the betrothal gifts.
“Betrothal gifts? Do you think I’ll be rare for those betrothal gifts? Hurry up and get lost!”
Qi Huang said disdainfully. With her current strength, the only thing she was worried about was the Lü family’s Immortal Tablet. As for people, even if Lü Yi’s grandfather, who was at the Heavenly Punishment Realm, came, she wouldn’t give him a good look.
Lü Gao shook his head and said, “We’ve traveled thousands of miles to get here. Aren’t you going to invite us in for a cup of tea?”
“I’m sorry, the tea in our HongHua Sect is reserved for guests, and you are not guests of the HongHua Sect.”
Qi Huang refused unmoved.
“Regardless of whether we are guests or not, I am determined to have this cup of tea from the HongHua Sect today.”
Lü Gao said shamelessly.
“Big Brother, since they don’t welcome us, let’s just leave. Why should we stay here and be looked down upon by others? Anyway, Cheng Hong Ling can’t fly away.”
Lü Fei next to him urged impatiently.
“What do you know? We traveled thousands of miles to propose marriage. If we can’t even get through the main doors of HongHua Sect, wouldn’t the entire Cultivation World laugh at us if this gets out?”
Her husband Lou Xiao reminded her.
“That’s right! It seems we must drink the tea of HongHua Sect today.”
Lü Fei suddenly realized.
“You still want to freeload.”
Qi Huang’s anger turned into a laugh, and then she provocatively said, “Alright! If you can enter HongHua Sect today, then I will personally serve you tea.”
“Hmph, since that’s the case, then today I will let you fulfill your duty as a daughter-in-law in advance!”
Lü Gao declared his dominance and then said to his son next to him, “Lü Yi, put on your specially made clothes and go meet your future wife. Don’t lose, otherwise, your future family status might not be very high.”
“Heh heh, don’t worry. The women of my Lü Yi will always be my subordinates.”
Lü Yi laughed arrogantly and stepped forward, saying, “Ever since last year’s Evergreen Convention when you killed my clone, I’ve been wanting to test your strength. Today, I’ve finally found the opportunity.
Do you think I’m stupid? You are protected by the Immortal Tablet. If I attack you, won’t I be suppressed by the Immortal Might?
Qi Huang said with disdain.
“Don’t worry, your name is also on the Immortal Tablet now. We are family. As long as it’s just a touch and no lives are lost, the Immortal Tablet’s punishment mechanism won’t be triggered.”
Lü Yi explained, and at the same time, he put on a specially made outfit made of Nine Nether Demonic Cat fur, seemingly to counter the suppression of Spiritual Sense. This was his confidence in daring to fight Qi Huang.
“Is that so?”
Qi Huang raised the corner of her mouth maliciously and then provocatively said, “Since that’s the case, then you can all come at me together. Let’s not waste everyone’s time.”
“What did you say? All of us come at you?”
Lü Yi almost thought he misheard.
“Too much nonsense!”
Qi Huang instantly disappeared from her spot, and the blue cold light of the Cicada Wing Sword flashed past.
“How could she be so fast?”
Lü Yi had been locking onto Qi Huang’s figure with his Spiritual Sense, but he was shocked to find that he could only barely capture her movement trajectory, and his brain couldn’t react in time.
When Qi Huang’s ghostly figure appeared again, she was already standing behind Lü Yi, holding the sharp Cicada Wing Sword in her hand.
Lü Yi looked confused. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his body. He looked down and saw that his several layers of clothes had been cut from his chest from top to bottom and were retracting to the sides, exposing his firm chest and his pair of boxer briefs below.
What was even more shocking was that Lü Yi’s boxer briefs seemed to have not been washed for who knows how long. They were covered with stains of various sizes. As soon as they were exposed, they immediately attracted several flies to perch on them, looking extremely disgusting.
“Ah!”
Lü Yi immediately cried out in surprise and quickly pulled his clothes to cover himself. Although he was thick-skinned, he also knew that his current appearance was truly unbearable.
Unfortunately, Lü Yi was a step too slow. Everyone around had already seen it.
“He’s the young master of the Lü family? So slovenly, is he a beggar?! D D keeps bragging about how amazing the Lü family is. Don’t tell me they’re so poor they can’t even afford soap powder? Or perhaps they don’t even have money to dig a well? Wealthy family background doesn’t mean cleanliness. I’d rather remain single for life than marry a man like this. What if I get a gynecological disease? I heard he has hundreds of concubines. I wonder how those women can tolerate it? They probably have to see a gynecologist several times a month. For wealth and status, they don’t even care about their lives!”
The onlookers’ faces were filled with disdain, especially the female disciples of Shuiyu Valley, who were all gloating and mocking him.
“You… ”
Lü Gao almost died of anger when he saw this scene. He had calculated everything, but he never expected Qi Huang to be so fast, nor did he expect his son to be so slovenly. This had completely disgraced the Lü family.
“Bitch, how dare you humiliate me like this? I will surely kill you today!”
Lü Yi had never suffered such humiliation before. His face instantly turned red, and he charged at Qi Huang recklessly. At this moment, Qi Huang was like an irreconcilable sworn enemy to him, as if she had killed his father.
