Chapter 1858: Rival in Love
Walking through the garden, Yang Yi didn't even look at these flowers and scenery today, his heart was full of helplessness, full of fear of the unknown, but these were all things he had to face, for the princess who liked him and for the promise he made at that time.
Coming to the room where the patriarch of the refining clan dealt with his daily affairs, Yang Yi knew that he had come in time today, because there were more than a dozen people in the center of the hall that should have been empty, and looking at their height, Yang Yi could see that they were definitely not the refining clan, and at this time, when there were cultivators in the room, the biggest possibility was the envoy team of the Essence Stone family.
"Yang Yi, my friend, you came here today in a timely manner, come and let me introduce you to a few friends. β
Seeing that Yang Yi had arrived with all the personnel of the Heavenly Fire Mercenary Regiment, the patriarch of the refining clan laughed and stepped down from his high chair, took Yang Yi's hand and walked in front of the envoys with happy faces.
"This is the second son of the Adamantine Stone family, Du Zhongkang,"
Du Zhongkang can indeed be called a beautiful man, his handsome face makes Yang Yi a little jealous, if he dresses up, no one will doubt that Du Zhongkang is a woman, but he is so handsome, Yang Yi vaguely feels a trace of haze, although Du Zhongkang does not have a trace of manly spirit, but it gives people an illusion that it is difficult to approach and look up.
Yang Yi doesn't have the habit of befriending his rivals, so it's not an exaggeration for him to be stingy.
After the introduction of the patriarch of the refining clan, Du Zhongkang politely greeted a few words, but Yang Yi kept looking at this bewitching man coldly, if he wasn't in the room, he would have to take care of the patriarch of the refining clan, maybe Yang Yi would have made a move now,
Although the patriarch of the refining clan is a refining clan, he can become the patriarch of the refining clan and deal with all kinds of different cultivators every day, of course he has already captured Yang Yi's expression, but he doesn't know why Yang Yi is like this today, in order not to make his two friends conflict, the patriarch of the refining clan pulled Yang Yi back again, laughed and asked: "Brother Yang Yi, do you want to drink more with me today?" It's just that you have to wait, I'll accompany you as soon as I've taken care of some things, come, take Captain Yang Yi to the guest room in the back, and order more fine wine below,"
"No need, Patriarch of the Refining Clan, I have something to do today. β
Yang Yi's enthusiasm for the patriarch of the refining clan had already been understood, and if he wanted to say something about himself, then he had to drink the wine prepared by the patriarch of the refining clan, otherwise it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to say it.
"Oh, what's waiting for me, hehe, you also saw it, after all, Du Zhongkang and they came first,"
The patriarch of the refining clan smiled and did not continue to hold Yang Yi, he motioned to Yang Yi to wait a minute, he had to deal with Du Zhongkang's matter, after all, this was related to his daughter's happiness, and there could never be any sloppiness.
The so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, Yang Yi did not rush to say his own thing, he wanted to see what was going on between the patriarch of the refining clan and the Essence Stone family that actually forced the patriarch of the refining clan to bow his head.
"Du Zhong Kang Gongzi, the conditions we put forward will never be compromised, if you are not sincere, please go back!"
Obviously, the patriarch of the refining clan has a much more blunt attitude towards Du Zhongkang,
"Patriarch, one artifact is the biggest dowry we can pay, as for the fifty top-grade magic weapons you said, our Essence Stone Family can't do it, if the patriarch doesn't want that artifact, I can go back now." β
Du Zhongkang also did not have any compromises, he was very clear about the eagerness of the patriarch of the refining clan to want the artifact in his hand, and the patriarch of the refining clan was able to promise to marry his daughter because of this artifact, which shows the status of this artifact in the mind of the patriarch of the refining clan, as long as this artifact is in hand, he Du Zhongkang has the foundation of negotiation and the capital of threat.
Sure enough, the patriarch of the refining clan hesitated for a moment when he saw Du Zhongkang turn around to leave, but as the patriarch of the refining clan, he would definitely not be able to speak at this time, if he really did this, not to mention his other conditions, even the thirty top-level magic weapons that had been negotiated before would probably come to naught, thinking that he was actually going to exchange his daughter for an artifact, the patriarch of the refining clan felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
"Head Yangyi, if you have something to say now, there is no need for us to talk about it here. β
The patriarch of the refining clan said helplessly to Yang Yi, he was looking for a step for himself, otherwise he didn't know that he could control himself and keep Du Zhongkang without saying a word.
The meaning of the patriarch of the refining clan Du Zhongkang did not see it, because of the artifact in his hand, he had no fear, if the patriarch of the refining clan did not say anything to stay, for the sake of his family's face, Du Zhongkang did not want to stay, and when the patriarch of the refining clan begged again, he Du Zhongkang could cancel the other thirty top-level magic weapons that he had promised.
Yang Yi has already heard it very clearly, the patriarch of the refining clan only had to marry his daughter because of an artifact, but for his own happiness, Yang Yi did not hesitate to spend his blood, if the patriarch of the refining clan really wanted this artifact, he Yang Yi even did not hesitate to kill Du Zhongkang to seize the artifact, anyway, he was also a scoundrel, and there was nothing in his dictionary that could and could not be. There is only the difference between what you want to do and what you don't want to do.
"Patriarch, I would like to propose to you, please marry the princess to me. β
The words were shocking, not only did the patriarch of the refining clan not expect it, but even Du Zhongkang and the others, who were already about to walk to the door, had to stop and walk back.
When the patriarch of the refining clan heard Yang Yi call him the patriarch, he felt that the matter of Yang Yi must definitely be formally proposed, otherwise Yang Yi should not be called his patriarch among friends, but the patriarch of the refining clan never thought that Yang Yi would actually marry his daughter.
"When did you meet my daughter?"
The patriarch of the refining clan asked strangely,
Princess Zhulan usually doesn't walk out of the patriarch's mansion for half a step, and Yang Yi only came to his patriarch's mansion once, the patriarch of the refining clan doesn't know when the two of them met, but the patriarch of the refining clan saw Yang Yi's serious expression and believed that Yang Yi didn't make this request to help him, but the patriarch of the refining clan began to secretly be happy in his heart, with Yang Yi's involvement, although he was the head of a mercenary group and Du Zhongkang, the son, there was no way to compete, but if he could mix in, Du Zhongkang's idea of saving the top magic weapon could not be realizedγ
"It's ridiculous that you want to compete with the son of my Jingjin Stone family as a civilian, do you have that strength?"
Du Zhongkang sneered and said,
In Du Zhongkang's eyes, Yang Yi is just a humble commoner, and with this family behind him, Yang Yi is simply joking when he competes with him for women.
"Idiot!"
Killing Zhou couldn't help but mutter,
Others don't know your identity, and there is no one in the Tianhuo mercenary group who doesn't know that the son of a small family is so arrogant, even if he kills Zhou, he can't help but want to make a move.
"What strength does Du Zhongkang have in his son? Is it just because he has the appearance of a woman?"
Yang Yi would never hold back Du Zhongkang's ridicule, and he didn't scold the street on the spot, he already gave face to the patriarch of the refining clan.
Du Zhongkang hates what others talk about his appearance, although he also admits that he is very handsome, but he is too feminine, so that he has always been obsessed, and even a few years ago, because of the discussion of his appearance, the civilians of the Essence Stone family were executed by him thousands of people every year.
However, this is the refining clan, and if you rashly make a move in the patriarch's mansion, it will not only make the honor of the Adamantine Stone family lose it, but also make yourself embarrassed.
Resisting the urge to make a move in his heart, Du Zhongkang pretended to be disdainful and said: "Strength is not spoken, if you want to compete with me for the princess, then take out your strength, whether it is an artifact, a treasure, an identity, or even strength, but what do you have? Behind me is the entire family of our Essence Stone Family,"
"Yes, Yangyi, what do you have, after all, Zhulan is my daughter, and if you don't give him happiness, I can't marry it to you. β
The patriarch of the refining clan said against his will, in fact, how much he hoped that Yang Yi could come up with something decent, so that the negotiation with Du Zhongkang would be smoother,
