In the spacious and uncramped main hall.
Originally, because of the matter of ’Truth Membrane Eye’ and ’Tribulation Crossing Raft’, the atmosphere appeared somewhat solemn, but it seemed to suddenly become much lighter.
Among the crowd, whispers multiplied expediently.
Many Nascent Soul cultivators, on reflection, cast somewhat emotional glances at Wang Ba.
Although the royal family of Jin, the Qin family was far from being compared to the Wanxiang Sect in terms of strength, it was a major power backed by several Immortal Ascensions after all.
Qin Dengyuan, the master of their royal family, is also famous even in the Nine Continents.
His personal presence to propose marriage for his great-granddaughter obviously indicated the importance he attached to this event.
Except for other things, if a Foundation Establishment competitor could marry a Qin family’s girl who is cherished as such, at least he doesn’t need to worry about resources for cultivation. Some people knew that the Dharma Lineage depleted very resources, the Qin Family’s support would save lots of troubles.
Despite these Nascent Soul cultivators, including some that had achieved the peak, involuntarily envied upon this thought.
On the stage, Xun FuJun glanced at Wang Ba below hesitantly.
After making quick considerations in his mind, he eventually still didn’t spoke up.
Qin Dengyuan glanced at Qin Lingxiao beside him. Seeing the slight blush that finally rose on her face and the unusual lowering of her head,
he could only sigh internally that girls grow up and didn’t stay as his little granddaughter. This was not an exception.
Although he was very reluctant, he knew the thoughts of girls, sighed internally and immediately smiled:
"Brother Shao, we are now becoming relatives after being friends, haha."
Upon seeing this, the cultivators below also felt a surge in their hearts.
Those who were mentally active even had some guesses about what was happening.
At that crucial moment of the appearance of ’Truth Membrane Eye’, suddenly, Master Qin personally came to propose marriage with his legitimate descendant. The deeper meaning of what it implies is obviously not limited to marriage alone.
They didn’t think it was just a coincidence, nor did they suspect that Master Qin was just seeking a groom for his great-granddaughter.
Such existences, actions have profound intentions.
It was never that simple and casual.
Sect Master publicly convened a major sect conference and explicitly initiated this marriage proposal in front of everyone. His intention was obviously to reassure everyone’s anxiety due to the ’Truth Membrane Eye’ matter, and send a signal of deep cooperation with the Qin family.
As a matter of fact, not only the Nascent Soul cultivators but also the Immortal Ascension elders attending the meeting saw the situation in this way.
Therefore, even though some cultivators were not convinced about Wang Ba, they were still glad to see it happen.
Even Chi Lietquan of Fire Cloud Peak, although he was disdainful on the surface, he did not say much.
The atmosphere at the hall became increasingly relaxed.
But at this moment,
A figure alone in the crowd of Nascent Soul cultivators, much like a lone sheep among wolves, suddenly raised his hand and bowed slightly. His clear and tranquil voice, penetrating the slightly noisy conversations in the hall:
"As a disciple, no offence to anyone, my marriage should be determined by my mentor. As he is currently not present, I earnestly plead that we wait for his return and then discuss it."
As the words came out, the hall went slightly quiet.
Immediately afterwards, conversation resumed, only livelier.
"This kid is really something, knowing to respect his mentor."
"Someone like Yao Wudi who is such a coot to have a disciple like that, he must have been a great and virtuous Immortal in the past life…"
"But saying it this way is not quite right, after all, they must consider the feelings of the girl’s family members too.
"Haha, brother, you don’t understand human sophistication. The young man is just making a gesture, you watch, when the sect master says another few words, won’t he accept?"
On the stage,
Shao Yangzi looked at Wang Ba, who was solemnly bowing below, then looked at Qin Dengyuan at his side,
Qin Dengyuan actually didn’t show any annoyed expression, but on the contrary, there was a look of appreciation on his face:
"Good, it’s not about skills but no one should forget their roots and this is what’s commendable."
Seeing this, Shao Yangzi immediately relaxed, turned his head, and said to Wang Ba with a smile:
"Wudi is currently still in West Sea Country, he cannot come back for a while, but if he knew, he would surely be pleased. You two shouldn’t suffer from lovesickness because of him being absent."
However, Wang Ba’s reply made quite a few of the Nascent Soul cultivators frown involuntarily. He hesitated a bit, then bowed again, sincerely:
"Sect Master, as a disciple, my personal matters shouldn’t bother the Sect Master. It has disrupted the peace of the elders, so it’s better to discuss this matter privately..."
"Little Wang, are you implying that my family’s Lingxiao is not good enough for you?"
King Zhending, Qin Huo, who followed Qin Dengyuan silently but remained at the back, frowned involuntarily.
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba was stunned, then he quickly said:
"I dare not. As a disciple with no merits or virtues, what qualification do I have…"
"What qualifications or no qualifications, both of you like each other, our two families can be considered as on the same level. Let’s start by confirming the relationship, Sect Master Shao, what do you think?"
Qin Huo directly interrupted Wang Ba, then laughingly looked at Shao Yangzi.
Hearing this, Shao Yangzi looked at Qin Dengyuan: "So, Brother Deng’s intention is…"
Qin Dengyuan looked at Qin Lingxiao, who was so nervous because of Wang Ba’s repeated mentions that she didn’t dare to lift her head, and sighed in his heart. His empathy grew, but he quickly became more decisive,
"Since it has already been discussed, we cultivators don’t talk about the vulgar rules, why not choose the date as it comes, we happen to be in front of the noble heroes of the sect today, let’s settle the couple’s relationship in the presence of everyone, everyone can also serve as witnesses."
