Although Lotus Sun had volunteered to pose as a man to propose marriage this time, she couldnât help but feel a little hesitant and nervous when it was her turn.
After all, many boys had no experience in proposing marriage, let alone a girl like her? And for some reason, she felt that this was a little strange.
Although her original intention was to stop Wang Ling from proposing a marriage... er, no, her original intention was to retain Sun Ying âer and Wang Yingâs feelings; it was for the greater good! But it was true that Wang Ling wasnât the one proposing a marriage, but in the end, she herself was the one getting married!
She had set herself up!
When she realized this, lotus sun even felt a little remorseful in her heart, thinking that she had been too rash in the end... Moreover, this matter was very important, because the success or failure of the proposal would directly affect the historical trajectory of human cultivators, if anything went wrong in the middle, she would be the sinner of history.
This heavy pressure made it hard for her to breathe, and she kept taking deep breaths on the way to the Peng familyâs headquarters.
Liu Qingyi and You Yueqing pretended to be maids and stayed by her side. Since King Tiankun wasnât around, they didnât have to force themselves to maintain their serpentine form. Their legs were no different from ordinary peopleâs.
âWhy are you getting nervous at such a critical moment?âLiu Qingyi asked with a smile and comforted her. âThereâs no need to carry such a heavy burden. Itâs just an act.â
Lotus Sun understood the logic, but it was normal for people to reflect on themselves, and the more outstanding a person was, the more so it would be.
She was so nervous that even the muscles in her stomach were throbbing, and she was full of regret. If she had obediently listened to Wang Ling and not interfered in this matter before, things might not have come to this point at all.
Now that the turning point of history had been handed over to her, if she messed up again... she was really worried that the friendship value between her and Wang Ling would directly drop below the historical freezing point.
It had clearly been very difficult for her to come into contact with Wang Ling at this level..
At this moment, Lotus Sunâs thoughts were flying around in her mind. While her mind was running wild with wild thoughts, she hadnât expected that the other person who had comforted her at this time would actually be you Yueqing, whom she had always regarded as a highly vigilant person.
âYou, donât think too much at a time like this. Do you think itâs all your fault that things have become complicated? âEverything was just a set-up, including the fact that you gathered so many people to decipher the mysterious text and accidentally fell into this eternal world. It was all a set-up.â
You Yueqing looked at Lotus sun calmly and said, âIn fact, weâre just chess pieces used by these senior almighty experts to play chess. âSince weâre chess pieces, we just need to follow the plan step by step. âBesides, why did Ling Ling agree to let you go? Havenât you considered it at all?â
Hearing this, Lotus Sun suddenly raised her head, and the expression on her face froze.
Yes, such an important task wasnât childâs play. Why had Wang Ling so decisively agreed to let her carry it out?
â At this moment, lotus sun began to vaguely understand after you Yueqingâs advice.
âYour Ling Ling trusts you, thatâs why he gave you such an important task.âAt that moment, you Yueqing looked at Lotus Sun seriously and said.
At the same time, when she saw Lotus Sunâs astonished gaze, she found it amusing. âWhat? You looked at me in shock, thinking that I would comfort you on purpose. Itâs unbelievable?â
âNo... Priest you misunderstood...â
âOh, youâre being so polite again.âYou Yueqing smiled and waved her legs in a very relaxed and self-satisfied manner. âActually, I already have someone I like.â
âI know.â
Lotus sun lowered her head. âItâs classmate Wang Ling, right...â
âNo.âYou Yueqing shook her head like a rattle-drum.
âEh, Eh, eh?â
Lotus Sun and Liu Qingyi were both astonished.
âIt was true that Wang Ling was the one who showed off those birthday presents earlier, but he was just trying to tease you.â
You Yueqing was very straightforward, she directly laid out her cards. âYo, there was indeed a time when I was young when I especially liked Ling Ling, but later on, when I became a Daoist priest and grew up, I discovered that kind of relationship. Itâs probably just a brother-sister relationship, and I think itâs more appropriate for him to be my brother.â
âThen the person that priest you likes is...âLiu Qingyi suddenly asked.
Perhaps realizing that she was being too nosy, she quickly waved her hand. âItâs Okay, priest you. It doesnât matter even if you donât tell me. Iâm just purely curious.â
You Yueqing blinked, her sparkling eyes were extremely pretty. âWhen the time comes, Iâll naturally tell you. But Ling Ling is indeed not bad. If Iâm rejected in the end, maybe I can make Ling Ling a spare tire?â
Lotus sun and you yueqing: âSpare... Spare Tire...â
You Yueqing smiled again. âYou guys are too funny! Sigh, not funny!â
â...â
This rather sincere exchange had indeed eased the tension in Lotus Sunâs heart.
She had a vague feeling that you Yueqingâs identity wasnât as simple as it seemed.
At least in Lotus Sunâs eyes, you Yueqing was really very mysterious..
..
The Peng familyâs general residence was set up on Penglai planet in the central galaxy. This was a dangerous place in the central galaxy, surrounded by many celestial bodies that contained powerful cosmic energy. Sometimes, passing cultivators would be drawn into it.
The Peng familyâs general residence was set up here. It was like a fortress, easy to defend but hard to attack. To the outside world, this Penglai planet belonged to everyone, but almost all of the businesses on Penglai planet were related to the Peng family. This was an empire that belonged solely to the Peng family.
The Penglai Planetâs headquarters was an entire golden villa. The buildings were decorated with carved beams and picturesque buildings, and one could even see many sculptures of creatures that did not belong to the ancient world of cultivators.
Those were some of the Old Worldâs old creatures, and they had been openly carved on the walls by the Peng family as murals. It could be seen that the Peng familyâs arrogance had reached a shocking level.
At the boundary of Penglai star entering the stars, as Lotus Sun and the othersâcarriages passed by, a group of ancient city guards quickly surrounded them on their round plates.
These neutral guards, who had been put together by the four great emperors of the four regions to maintain the stability of the Central Region Galaxy, had now become the targets of the Peng familyâs instigation.
This made the Eastern Emperor very dissatisfied. He held his breath and looked at the group of Penglai Star Ancient city guards with an arrogant attitude as he asked them, âWho are you people? What do you do? Do you know what Penglai Star Is?â
âI remember that the central galaxy doesnât belong to any force,âthe eastern emperor said calmly. He stared at the guards of Penglai Star and said without fear, âToday, I brought my young master to Penglai Star to propose marriage.â
âPropose marriage?âOne of the guards of Penglai star laughed and asked curiously, âEveryone here is from the Peng family. Who Can you ask to propose marriage to?â
âI remember that this is not a question that a guard like you should be asking.âThe Eastern Emperor tried his best to control his temper.
âIf you donât give us a reason, we wonât let you pass.âThe guard crossed his arms and laughed maniacally.
However, his smile quickly stopped in the next second..
