Xifeng City, Shui Family Mansion.
The sky was yet dim and the sun was still rising. A crowd had gathered in front of Shui family mansion. They were looking forward, eyebrows twitching from laughter.
Parked there was a very dilapidated carriage, and a teenager was standing near it.
The young man was about sixteen years old, there was a bit of childishness on his face but his eyes were deep, flashing with a sharp essence, gazing at the Shui family Mansion.
"This young man seems to be Chu Xingyun, the young master of Chu Family. Its said that he was born weak and sick and also has a weak personality. He can be called an absolute trash. What's he doing in Shui Family Mansion?"
From inside Shui family mansion gate, several young lads wearing blue protruded their head looking curiously at the teenager beside the carriage.
"I heard that he came to propose, maybe petrified by the beauty of elder sister."
"Elder Sister?" Several young men were stunned, their eyes were filled with surprise.
The forementioned elder sister's name is Shui Qian-Yue, who at the age of ten, went for third level basic cultivation, communicated with the world and had fourth-grade Martial Artifact.
Now, at the age of sixteen she has entered the ninth grade Heavenly Body. She is not only a legend of Shui family but also a legend of Xifeng City.
More importantly, Shui-Qianyue is not only an amazing talent, but also the most beautiful woman in Xifeng City.
If the family openly asks for marriage, it is enough to gather all the young men from far west to east at this place.
"I heard that Chu Xingyun began practicing at the age of six and only by the age of ten did his Martial Artifact come into existence, which is also a trash, worse than that of some of us present here."
"Haha, its ridiculous, it's like toad trying to eat a Swan, he has nothing yet wants the young miss?"
Several young people mocked out loud intensionally. It fell into Chu Xingyun's ears but he intentionally ignored it, walking with his chest puffed out and head high.
At this time a big guard came out, scornfully glanced at Chu Xingyun and said
"The patriarch gave the orders, please let Prince Chu inside"
"Lead the way." Chu Xingyun uttered in a plain voice, which made the Shui family guard a little angry, but stopped his body, unconsciously moved sideways, and led Chu Xingyun into the Shui family gate.
Along the way, Chu Xingyun soon came to the main hall of Shui family.
He glanced at it casually, but saw a lines of figures standing in the main hall. The Shui family master, Shui Chongxian, was sitting on the main throne, and the atmosphere was serious, which made the whole space solidified to the extreme.
At such a scene, if it is an ordinary person, has who not yet entered the main hall, I am afraid they are frightened to pee.
But Chu Xingyun, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, stepped directly into the main hall, not to mention went straight to the front of Shui Chongxian.
"Did I make you wait long?" Chu Xingyun being neither humble nor exalted, said that at his face, without panic, instead appearing very calm.
"This Chu Xingyun was born cowardly. He dared not even breathe when he saw me. Why has there been such a great change today, as if he had changed himself?" Shui Chongxian frowned slightly, apparently surprised by Chu Xingyun's performance.
But soon, this little surprise disappeared, Shui Chongxian restored his original calm expression and said, "There are still months to go before my birthday. I'm afraid it's too early for my nephew Chuxian to come to the door this time."
"Uncle Shui misunderstood that this time I came to Shuijia to celebrate your birthday, instead I came with a marriage proposal." Chu Xingyun light said.
"Marriage proposal?" Shui Chongxian's eyes flashed a cold color.
Chu Xingyun nodded and said loudly, "Sixteen years ago, my father helped the Shuijia survive the enemy killing. After that, the Shuijia took the initiative to propose marriage. As long as the children of both sides reached the age of sixteen, the marriage contract could be completed."
"That's what happened!"
Shui Chongxian said in a low voice, "My nephew, the agreement was made by Shuijia, but now your father is still missing, and there is no trace to be found. It's not too late to talk about it until he comes back safely."
"Does Uncle Shui mean is that if my father doesn't come back in a day, the engagement will not be completed?" Chu Xingyun's eyes were slightly fixed and his calm look changed. He became somewhat aggressive.
"Nephew, you misunderstood me." Shui Chongxian gave a dry laugh, but Chu Xingyun's face was cold. His eyes sank and he continued to ask, "What does Uncle Shui mean? Do you know my father's whereabouts?"
Chu Xingyun's voice is like a needle, full of penetrating power, which directly makes the whole body of Shui Chongxian stunned in place.
He raised his head and found that Chu Xingyun's eyes were so cold that they could reach the bone marrow, which made him feel like falling into the ice cellar. He couldn't even speak half a word and had difficulty breathing.
"What bullshit!" Vibrant as water yet arrogant, a voice sounded.
Along with the voice, a beautiful girl appeared in front of everyone.
This beautiful girl, 28 years old, with an exquisite face, will grow up in the future to become one with the power of a disaster yet this face makes people lose their calm. However her arrogant eyes ruins her face.
She is pearl in the eyes of the people of Shuijia, one in a thousand.
Seeing her Chu Xingyun's face did not change at all, his voice was still faint: "What I just said, every word, all comply with the promise, without any falsification, this debt is owed by your Shuijia to my Chu family."
Shui Qian-yue exudes indifference and directly oppresses Chu Xingyun. She sneers: "Chu Xingyun, I am a rare genius in Xifeng City in a hundred years. My talent is very high. This life is destined to be with an absolute strong person who can make me fall in love with the world. The man who can make me fall in love with the world must also be a generation of elegance. But you, with a weak character and sick body, is a waste in this generation. You can just give up!
The whole hall became silent and almost everyone nodded quietly.
With the talent of one in a thousand, future achievements are bound to be limitless! ____________
The person who can win her favor must be a brilliant talented person. Chu Xingyun is obviously miles short of that qualification.
Faced with thousands of mockery and ridicule from the others, Chu Xingyun's face unexpectedly was not embarrassed, and his eyes were still so calm, even in that calmness, was contempt.
Yes, it's contempt!
As if a nine-headed divine dragon was looking down at the humble ants, with a sublime scorn, with a contempt for not only her but also her ridiculous gestures.
"You seem a little self-indulgent, don't you?" Chu Xingyun turned his head and looked at Shui Quian-yue. He laughed and said, "When did I say that it was you that I came to marry today?"
"I... Self-indulgent?" The body of Shui Quan-Yue trembled at these words and her whole face became red. The two red lips trembled up and down, full of shame and anger.
However, in addition to these two emotions, her heart is also full of doubts.
You know, Shuijia has only one young mistress.
If Chu Xingyun does not want to marry her,then who will he marry?
