Mad God Evolution -
Chapter 390 - 390 0370_1
390: Chapter 0370_1 390: Chapter 0370_1 Yan Yan didn’t hear clearly, and her heart immediately started beating uncontrollably.
Truthfully, she never expected Lv Zhong to ask her to stay.
For a moment, her mind went blank.
Lv Zhong obviously saw that the girl was shy again, he touched his forehead in resignation, “Girl, it’s not like I’m asking you to sleep in the same room with me, what’s there to be shy about?
Don’t zone out, go wash and sleep…”
For this gentle and introverted girl, Lv Zhong felt that he had to be a bit domineering.
Otherwise, this girl would hesitate forever.
“O-okay…” Yan Yan replied in a low, tremulous voice with flushed cheeks, her head hung even lower.
“I’m going to rest first, you go to the guest room after your bath…” Knowing that the girl was shy, Lv Zhong decided to leave first.
Watching Lv Zhong enter the master bedroom, Yan Yan touched her burning cheeks in embarrassment, “How shameless of me, Brother Zhong wouldn’t…”
With such a thought, the embarrassment on Yan Yan’s face faded, but a touch of disappointment settled in her heart.
“My charm is too low.
If I had Teacher Xiaoyufei’s charm, would Brother Zhong possibly turn into a Night Wolf?
Hehe…” She couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy as she thought of Xiaoyufei’s mature and sexy figure and her irresistible charm.
“What am I thinking!” Shaking her head and banishing the chaotic thoughts, Yan Yan walked towards the bathroom…
**************************
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
At the Ao family residence in Dongting, Yao Ye returned home due to the relentless pressure from her family.
Like a walking corpse, Yao Ye was lost in thought, sitting in a corner of the garden.
Although Lv Zhong asked her to wait three days, Yao Ye still felt uneasy.
After all, the one who forced her into marriage was a genius from the Immortal Cultivation Sect, Jade Void Palace.
Lv Zhong was also a cultivator and had the Cult of Plague God backing him.
However, she did not think that the less renowned Cult of Plague God could stand against Jade Void Palace.
What’s more, Yao Ye didn’t want Lv Zhong to fight for her.
If the Cult of Plague God suffered heavy losses in the battle against Jade Void Palace, the blame could easily fall on Lv Zhong, causing harm to him.
Yao Ye returned home, despite feeling extremely unwilling to get married into Jade Void Palace, and diligently pondered her situation.
Upon returning home, Yao Ye found that the whole Ao family was efficiently preparing for her wedding.
…
The patriarchs and the elders of the Ao family had all suspended their retreats to oversee the wedding preparations.
The patriarch Ao Zhan, the elder Ao Ying, and Ao Yong, along with the most senior elders Ao Ba and Ao Jian, all gathered in the main hall of the Ao family.
Ao Ba was somewhat excited, tapping on the conference table with his finger, he quickly scanned his gaze onto Ao Zhan and Ao Yong, asking, “How is the preparation of Yao Ye’s dowry coming along?”
“Yes, Yao Ye was chosen by Yun Bufan of Jade Void Palace, it’s absolutely a great blessing for her and our Ao family.
We can’t make any mistakes with the dowry…” Another elder, Ao Jian, also excitedly voiced out.
In comparison to the excitement of the most senior elders Ao Ba and Ao Jian, the second generation – Ao Zhan, Ao Ying, and Ao Yong – seemed a bit aggrieved and disappointed.
Yao Ye, whose actual name was Ao Ye, was the direct granddaughter of Ao Yong.
However, as a member of the number one martial arts family, Ao Ye was not gifted with talent for cultivation.
Naturally, she was not the priority for the family resources and was more likely to be oppressed by the other martial arts practitioners in the family.
However, although Ao Ye was not talented in cultivation, her grandfather Ao Yong treated her well.
In order to protect her from being bullied within the family, he pleaded with family head Ao Zhan to let her manage the Ao family’s business in the mortal world within Xiangnan Province.
This led to Yao Ye taking charge of the Sanxiang Club!
“Uncle Ba, Uncle Jian, we are just an ancient martial arts family, moreover, we live in the mortal world.
What can we offer that the Jade Void Palace, a great sect of cultivation, would value?
The dowry for Yao Ye, it’s really hard to prepare!” Ao Zhan began his complaint.
Indeed, cultivators won’t care about the money in the mortal world, and the pills their martial artists use to increase their cultivation level and power, won’t even catch the eye of a cultivator.
Under these circumstances, what kind of dowry could the Ao family prepare?
Ao Yong, on the other hand, was very dissatisfied.
He knew that his granddaughter did not wish to marry Yun Bufan.
Besides, Yun Bufan’s demand for Ao Ye was an insult to the Ao Family.
The outside world saw it as Yun Bufan desiring Yao Ye, but in reality, Yun Bufan’s demanding of Yao Ye was a blatant slap in the face of the Ao family.
He was essentially “grabbing” her as if she was some object to possess!
If the Ao family agreed to send Yao Ye to Jade Void Palace, it would be utterly disgraceful, leading to public ridicule.
Therefore, Ao Yong didn’t want his granddaughter to be sent to the Jade Void Palace.
However, in the Ao family, his say wasn’t influential.
Not only was there the family head Ao Zhan, but also Ao Ba, Ao Jian and others who held much higher ranks.
Thus, at this gathering, Ao Yong was not in high spirits, his mind seemed to be elsewhere.
Ao Ba didn’t care about what Ao Yong thought.
In his eyes, as long as it was good for the family, any woman within the family was expendable, let alone trading off a girl with a martial arts cultivation talent to earn favor from the Immortal Cultivation Sect.
At this moment, Ao Ba had made his mind to marry Ao Ye off to Yun Bufan of Yuxu Palace.
Seeing Ao Zhan complaining, Ao Ba thought for a moment and came up with a suggestion: “We should also include our thousand-year Snow Ginseng and the real Dragon Spring Treasure Sword from our family treasures.”
What?
This time, not just Ao Zhan, Ao Yong, Ao Ying, even Ao Jian was shocked and cried out involuntarily: “Brother, giving away the thousand-year Snow Ginseng, though painful, is bearable.
But the Dragon Spring Treasure Sword is authentic, once belonged to the almighty Wei Zheng of ancient Tang.
Although the story of ‘dreaming of slaying the Dragon King’ might be fictitious, the sword possesses a mysterious power, capable of enhancing the purity of our Ao family bloodline.
It absolutely must not be given away…”
“Yes, let’s not give away the Dragon Spring Treasure Sword.” Ao Zhan quickly agreed.
“Foolish!” Ao Ba shouted loudly, gave dissatisfying looks to Ao Jian and Ao Zhan, and said, “The Dragon Spring Treasure Sword indeed improves the purity of our bloodline.
However, other than enhancing the talent of our children when they train in martial arts, what purpose does it serve?
If we manage to get hold of Yuxu Palace’s cultivation secret technique, then our Ao family can ascend from an ancient martial arts family to an immortal cultivation family, accomplishing the legend of immortality…”
Listening to Ao Ba, Ao Jian and Ao Zhan were both somewhat swayed.
However, Ao Yong, who hadn’t said a word up till then, scoffed, “Heh heh, you’re handing over the family heirloom just like that?
Aren’t you guys a little too prodigal?
Besides, are you sure that by handing over the Dragon Spring Treasure Sword, Yuxu Palace will really teach us their cultivation technique?
You guys seem to be taking wishful thinking.”
“Ao Yong, what are you talking about?
You have no respect for elders –” Ao Jian’s face suddenly clouded over and he rebuked Ao Yong in a cold voice.
As Ao Jian was unhappy, Ao Ba too narrowed his eyes, speaking coldly: “Little brother, I know you love little Ye dearly.
After all, she is your granddaughter, and you don’t want to give her to Yun Bufan, hence, you’re upset.
But, this matter is a big opportunity for our Ao family to rise again.
You must think for the benefit of the family.
To build relations with Yuxu Palace is a good thing that other aristocratic families can only dream of…”
“Good thing?
Not necessarily!” At this point, Ao Ying also sarcastically commented, “Don’t forget, little Ye has a relationship with a mysterious person.
If we befriend Yuxu Palace, it is possible that we may offend this person.
And this person may not be someone the Ao family can afford to provoke…”
Ao Ba’s gaze settled coldly on Ao Ying, “You’re talking about Lv Zhong, aren’t you, little Ying?”
“Yes!” Ao Ying nodded faintly, “Lv Zhong’s mystery and strength, in the past year, I believe the eight great families probably have a fair idea.
Not only is he strong personally, but the backing he has is also mysterious and powerful.
Coincidentally, he is friends with little Ye.
If Lv Zhong learns that the Ao family has sacrificed little Ye to build relations with Yuxu Palace, he might rage and flatten our family with the insect army from the ‘Cult of Plague God’…”
“Chi…”
Ao Zhan and Ao Jian inhaled sharply.
They both sighed regretfully: Damn, we hadn’t thought of this…
A hint of joy flashed across Ao Yong’s face.
He had the feeling that his granddaughter might not have to be sacrificed after all.
“Girl, you don’t need to worry about this at all.
This Lv Zhong who suddenly showed up, he definitely won’t be a match for people of Yuxu Palace, and would definitely not interfere when he hears about Yun Bufan marrying little Ye.
Therefore, he might not be able to get revenge on our Ao family!” Ao Ba said dismissively.
In his view, even if Lv Zhong had the support of the ‘Cult of Plague God’, why would this secretive sect want to start a war with the prestigious Yuxu Palace?
“Indeed!” Ao Jian agreed with contempt, “Ao Ying, do you really think Lv Zhong is a fool to challenge the strong Yuxu Palace alone?
If he does that, he’s looking for death—”
Before Ao Jian could finish, a few beams of sword light suddenly appeared in the sky above the Ao family manor, followed by a sound like thunder screaming between heaven and earth: “Who is the head of the Ao family?
Come out for me now…”
“Ah…”
Ao Ba, Ao Jian, Ao Zhan, Ao Yong, Ao Ying, their hearts pounded and a chilling voice sounded in their ears.
A strong, purposeful and oppressive soul force nearly frightened all five of them to death.
Powerful!
Abnormally powerful!
This was a cultivator!
Ao Ba and the others dared not delay and immediately rushed out of the meeting room to appear in the courtyard.
The moment the five people appeared, there were a few mysterious Taoists floating in the void, staring down at the people of the Ao family with rage.
Ao Ba raised his hand towards the sky, “My name is Ao Ba, the head of the Ao family.
Venerated Taoists, are you from Yuxu Palace?
What do you want with me?”
“Haha, what’s the matter?
You are asking me what’s the matter?” The leading Taoist was filled with grief and indignation, bellowing angrily, “My grandson Yun Bufan has been assassinated.
And the cause…
it’s because of a woman from your Ao family.
What do you think I’m here for?”
What?
Ao Ba, Ao Jian, Ao Zhan, their faces pale as they realized that a disaster had befallen the Ao family…
