Chapter 429: Force
The luxurious meeting hall of the Hai family.
A middle-aged man in a sky-blue satin robe sat on the main seat, listening to the chatter of an old man below with a sad face.
"The eldest young master of my Huangfu family will be the best candidate to inherit the position of patriarch in the future, and now he has come to the door several times to ask for marriage, but the sea patriarch always shirks it for various reasons, is it to bully the weakness of my Huangfu family?"
The red-faced old man of the Huangfu family was very excited, and he was spitting and spitting, and his voice was full of emotion, and he looked dissatisfied with the Hai family.
Beside him sat a young man who looked to be in his twenties, with a slightly chubby figure, a calm demeanor, and a polite appearance.
There were also two people sitting on the other side, a slender old man, and a young man with a gloomy face, it was a venerable member of the first-class family Murong family who brought Young Master Murong to ask for marriage.
Looking at the posture of these two families, they will not give up if they don't see Hai Wushuang.
On the Wuji Continent, major families often marry each other to consolidate their own family's supreme dominance.
The Murong family and the Huangfu family are in-laws of their children, and they came to the Hai family together this time to let the Hai family marry their daughter Hai Wushuang to one of these two sons.
In this way, the three families can form an alliance to jointly resist pressure from other families and protect the interests of their own families.
"Don't hide it from the two brothers, there is something wrong with the little girl's cultivation, it is really not suitable to go out to meet guests, please forgive me!"
The sea patriarch was also helpless in his heart, and from his heart, he also wanted to marry these two big families. However, the young masters of the two families had a crush on Hai Wushuang.
None of them knew about Hai Wushuang's situation in the forbidden land, and it was inconvenient for them to reveal it. But I didn't expect that the two major families would come together this time, and there was a tendency to not stop seeing anyone.
Although the Hai family is a first-class family, it has not been as good as before for many years, and the prestige of the family is declining day by day. Otherwise, the Sea Patriarch couldn't bear the pain, and let his favorite daughter Hai Wushuang go to the forbidden land to cultivate, hoping to contact the long-missing ancestor of the Hai family.
"Hmph! Patriarch Hai, when the old man came, the patriarch explained to the old man, and he must give an explanation for this trip. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the ore trade between my Murong family and the Hai family will ......."
Although the Venerable of the Murong family did not finish speaking, the implication was already obvious, if Hai Wushuang did not come out, he would not be doing ore business with the Hai family.
"My Huangfu family is the same, if we can't give us a satisfactory answer this time, then our Huangfu family's trading market may not welcome the Hai family!"
The Venerable of the Huangfu family, drinking tea, said unhurriedly.
"This ......"
The sea patriarch's tone was stagnant, his face was flushed, and he was angry in his heart, this is a naked threat.
The Hai family operates several mines, and the ore produced is the economic lifeblood of the Hai family, while the Huangfu family and the Murong family, one operates the largest trading markets in the Wuji Continent, and the other is a family that builds blades.
If the cooperation of these two families is lost, I am afraid that the Hai family will be in chaos, and without economic support, where will the clansmen live and cultivate in peace.
When the head of the Hai family was in trouble, Haiying led Ma Qingfeng in.
Brush!
The eyes of everyone in the main hall were immediately focused on the three people who came in.
Ma Qingfeng was like a breeze, he didn't care, a pair of tiger eyes swept around, and finally stopped on the body of the sea patriarch.
I saw a middle-aged man with a majestic face and a high-level aura, sitting firmly on the main seat. As for the others, Ma Qingfeng only glanced at them and completely ignored them.
The sea eagle's body trembled, so that it could not lie down. Under the eyes of the three Venerables, it was as if they were holding three mountains on their heads, breathless.
Elder Diao, who was following behind, was oppressed by the momentum of the three Venerables and involuntarily bent down, and stood aside with a respectful expression.
Haiying trembled, bent down and saluted, "Patriarch Qiyu, I met ...... on the Eastern Continent Nun.... Aunt ......"
The sea eagle was hesitant, and he didn't think about how to introduce Ma Qingfeng for a long time. Although he himself recognized Ma Qingfeng's identity, no one in the Hai family recognized it, let alone as the patriarch of the Hai family.
"If you have anything to say, just say it, don't be too branched, let the guests laugh!" the sea patriarch couldn't help but reprimand.
Ma Qingfeng took a step forward and was about to introduce himself.
But I didn't expect Haiying to suddenly be cross-minded and let go, "I met my uncle in the Eastern Continent, and I brought it back!"
"Uncle, which uncle?"
The sea patriarch looked puzzled, looked at Ma Qingfeng up and down, and racked his brains and didn't remember which aunt of the family was.
The people from the Murong family and the Huangfu family also looked at it with great interest, and they all wanted to see which uncle of the Hai family this ordinary Confucian in front of them was.
Anyway, things have developed to such a point, and it is not easy to retreat, since he has already expressed his loyalty in front of Ma Qingfeng, he will continue to persist as always, otherwise, it will be easy to leave the impression of grass on the wall.
"Back to the patriarch, I'm talking about this uncle, the husband of Miss Wushuang!" Haiying clenched his fists again and introduced loudly.
"What!"
The head of the Hai family shook his hand and crushed the teacup in his hand, this news was no less than a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which shook the hearts of everyone in the hall and almost fainted.
"You fart!"
The young master of the Murong family and the young master of the Huangfu family stood up in unison, discarded their previous disguises, revealed their true colors, and became angry before the sea patriarch.
The young master of the Murong family slapped the table fiercely, and the teacup on the table jumped high, "What are you?" You even dare to claim to be Miss Wushuang's husband, and you don't pee and take pictures, you are also worthy!"
"Where did you come from, the poor boy wants to climb the high branches of the Shanghai family, climb to the sky in one step, and soar to the sky, I think you are poor and crazy!" The young master of the Huangfu family, with a look of disdain, looked down on Ma Qingfeng who was dressed in ordinary clothes.
"Sea Eagle, you are also a young person, why do you still make such jokes? and in front of the guests, are you crazy?" the Sea Patriarch reprimanded with a dark face.
Since Hai Wushuang returned from the Eastern Continent, his mood has been obviously wrong, and he is full of sorrow all day long, as if he is missing someone.
However, as the head of the family, the sea patriarch did not have time to inquire in detail, and now it seems that his daughter must be thinking about the scholar in front of her.
Ma Qingfeng ran the Chaos Divine Skill and gathered all his own aura, so everyone in the hall thought he was an ordinary person!
Since Hai Wushuang entered the forbidden land, the sea patriarch's mood has also become extremely heavy, and he feels very sorry for his daughter.
Therefore, when he saw Ma Qingfeng, he didn't want him to be hurt in his heart, so he put the responsibility on Haiying, looking forward to Haiying being able to complete this field.
"My son-in-law, Ma Qingfeng, came from thousands of miles away, just to pick up my wife, Hai Wushuang, and hope that my father-in-law will be fulfilled!" Ma Qingfeng arched his hands and said in a humble and arrogant manner.
"This ......" Patriarch Hai looked at Ma Qingfeng, and was so angry in his heart, what a tenacious guy, didn't you see that there are still two strong families here?
Sure enough, as soon as Ma Qingfeng's words were finished, the young master of the Murong family stood up suddenly, and suddenly rushed in front of Ma Qingfeng, his fingers almost poked the bridge of Ma Qingfeng's nose, "You don't know whether you live or die, and you call yourself a son-in-law, do you think your life is long?"
The young master of the Huangfu family was not far behind, and as soon as his body moved, he jumped to Ma Qingfeng's side, "The toad wants to eat swan meat, and this young master will let you know the fate of you pariah!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the sea patriarch just wanted to reach out to stop it, but the hand he had just stretched out suddenly stopped in the air.
