There was silence in the room, and it took a long time for an elder to speak cautiously: "Actually, putting aside other factors, Her Royal Highness Lingnu's suggestion is also pertinent, but it's just ......"

He glanced at the Phantom Spirit Emperor, who had no superfluous expression on his face and couldn't guess what he really thought.

The patriarch continued: "It's just that in the eyes of outsiders, isn't it like we have compromised and exchanged the opportunity to recuperate in the way of harmony, which is too unfair to Her Highness the Spirit Maiden. ”

"It's okay, I don't care. Zichenruo shook his head gently.

A little gossip was not worth mentioning to her at all, because she knew that acquaintances would only bless her and Yuling, and what did it have to do with strangers who were not familiar with her to talk in secret?

"Please rest assured that I will not treat the dust badly. Yu Ling held her soft hand, and her expression was calm and unquestionable.

The Phantom Spirit Emperor seemed to become extremely tired in an instant, he leaned back in the soft chair slightly, his eyes fell on Zi Chenruo, and asked in a deep voice, "Chenruo, have you really decided?"

Zichenruo bowed slightly, and said slowly: "I still hope that my father will be fulfilled." ”

One second, two seconds, three seconds, long silence.

Time seems to flow extremely slowly in this instant, so slow that every second feels like a year.

Zichen pursed her lips and waited, this was the closest she was to hope, even if she had always been calm, she would inevitably become a loser.

After all, she can't be like some girls who dare to love and hate, she can abandon her clan and family, and only fly away with her beloved.

She has passed the age of impulsiveness, the age of making love the whole world.

She is the Spirit Maiden of the Phantom Spirit Clan, and she has her inescapable responsibilities and obligations, so she is looking forward to her father's approval, longing for the day when the family can sit together and have a warm and harmonious dinner, longing that she can hold hands with Yu Ling and walk on the tree-lined path of the Ancestral Star Academy, just like many years ago.

Yu Ling seemed to see Zi Chenruo's complicated mood, he didn't make a sound, he didn't urge, just quietly accompanied her, like two stubborn reefs, facing the endless surging sea water around him, standing silently in the rising wind and waves.

The Phantom Spirit Emperor's gaze slowly moved to Yu Ling, and too many complicated emotions flashed in his eyes for a moment, and finally sighed nonchalantly: "I only have such a daughter, treat her well." ”

Zi Chenruo's body stiffened slightly, and she looked at her father with some astonishment, as if she couldn't believe what he said.

"But Your Majesty, how can Her Highness the Spirit Maiden marry a member of the Yuan Ling Clan?" this ......" An elder said with wide eyes and shock.

"Okay, this matter is over, and when Guangling calculates a good day and an auspicious day, he will come back to prepare for the marriage. ”

The Phantom Spirit Emperor stood up, walked around the long table and walked in front of Yu Ling and the others, and looked at Zi Chenruo's collar and cuffs with a solemn expression, carefully smoothing out every wrinkle.

"Daddy......" Zichen couldn't help but call, her eyes suddenly became a little sour, so that she didn't dare to say the rest of the words, otherwise she was afraid that tears would gush out.

The Phantom Spirit Emperor smiled, his smile revealing rare tenderness: "If your mother can see this day, she will definitely be very pleased." ”

He stretched out his hand to stroke Zi Chenruo's hair, and said softly: "Our Chenruo has finally grown up, and he doesn't need my protection anymore." In fact, I thought about it a few years ago, which stinky boy would be lucky enough to be liked by my daughter in the future, and I looked at it, but I felt that no young man in the clan could be worthy of you. ”

"I just thought that getting married is a lifelong thing, and there must be no ambiguity and compromise. He must be very good to you, better than me, and he must be very, very good, stronger than me, so that he can take over my burden, take care of you, protect you, and only be good to you for the rest of his life. ”

"I used to think that such a person might not appear for a long, long time, until that day, Yuan'er told me that you fell in love with a young man from the Ming Domain. ”

The Phantom Spirit Emperor's smile had a complicated meaning, but it gradually became relieved.

"Time flies so fast, only five years have passed, so much has changed, I may really be old, become an old stubborn who does not listen to persuasion, not only make myself miserable, but also make you suffer. ”

"I'm really sorry for your mother, I said it was good, she sacrificed herself for the clan, and I kept you to take care of you. But what have I done all these years to let you suffer alone in the cold and cruel Senluo Domain, and I still think this is the most correct choice. ”

"I'm not a qualified father, stubbornly let you follow the path I planned for more than ten years, thinking that I was good to you, but I never really cared about your feelings. ”

"So now, it's time for me to let go. ”

The Phantom Spirit Emperor turned his head, looked at Yu Ling and said, "Yu Ling, are you willing to do your best to take good care of Chenruo and not let her suffer the slightest grievance?"

Yu Ling looked at Zi Chenruo, her face flushed slightly, her hands clutched the corners of her clothes tightly, and a layer of mist faintly floated in her eyes, as if she was trying her best to restrain the surging emotions in her heart.

"I do. Yu Ling said word by word.

He suddenly remembered a long, long time ago, when he was still on earth, as the best man of his friend, he witnessed a sacred moment, and that resounding vows still echoed in the depths of his memory.

So he naturally blurted out: "I willing, whether in good times or bad, poor or rich, she is the only companion in my life, whether it is, present, or future, forever and ever." ”

Although Yu Ling is not a person who likes to prove his feelings with words, he will not miss any oath when necessary.

If you love someone, you should say it, and you shouldn't regret it until you miss it.

The Phantom Spirit Emperor looked at him deeply, as if he wanted to say something, but after all, he was just silent and handed Zi Chenruo's hand to Yu Ling.

The two of them interlocked their fingers, Zichen Ruo couldn't hold back any longer, and tears slowly overflowed his eyes and slid down his cheeks.

She cried and laughed, and suddenly hugged Yuling tightly, her voice was small but extremely firm: "I am also willing." ”

The elders of the Phantom Spirit Clan couldn't help but look at each other, even the patriarch who had the fiercest opposition before couldn't say a word when he saw this situation.

The Phantom Spirit Emperor silently floated a faint smile, and his heart swelled with infinite emotion, and finally silently turned around and walked out of the door.

He knew that he was a little impulsive, and from the point of view of reason, this was not the most beneficial choice for the Phantom Clan.

But he was also tired, and he had been sacrificing and compromising as His Majesty the Spirit Emperor all along, until his only daughter became estranged like an enemy.

Just be willful for once, now he is just an ordinary father, not the Spirit Emperor of the Phantom Clan.

He sat on the bench that Yuling had just sat on, quietly looking at the fragrance of the court, and finally felt the peace and tranquility that he had not seen for a long time.

Obviously, the future is still full of unknowns, full of all kinds of irreconcilable contradictions and conflicts, but at this moment, he feels relieved.

But this warm beauty did not last long, and with a rush of footsteps, the silence was broken.

A Western Union elder hurriedly ran over, seemingly holding a petite figure in his arms, and even though she was wrapped in layers of bandages and gauze, the blood was still dripping all the way.

"Alliance leader, alliance leader!

Ignoring the bunch of Phantom Clansmen in the courtyard, the Western Union Elder rushed directly to the door of the house, shouting urgently.

At this time, Yu Ling had just separated from Zichen, and before he could say anything, he smelled the smell of blood in the air.

"What's wrong?" Yu Ling's heart sank, and an extremely bad premonition swelled up.

"This is Che Xu, the personal disciple of Huayun Valley, she just suddenly teleported, covered in blood, and said that there were 100,000 urgent things to tell the alliance leader, and then she passed out, we fed her a lot of pills, but it couldn't dissipate the powerful energy in her body, and she just barely hung a life......" Elder Xilian said at the fastest speed.
