Chapter 35: Ask for the Dragon Maiden
The next day at the Panlong Palace, Ao Guangdi really invited all the clansmen to come, and handed over the Four Dragons Order, which could command the Qing, Red, White, and Black clans, to Helan Chen, and promised that he could make any request, and the descendants of the Ao clan would keep their promises.

At that time, Ao Guangdi thought that Helan Chen would definitely hold this order hostage, and he would not hand it over easily if he wanted to get the permanent protection of the dragon clan, and he had no choice but to agree. But how did he know that after he received the Four Dragons Order, he quickly returned it in public.
"Guangdi Gong, thank you for your hospitality these days. I'm sure you're not comfortable with us outsiders. The old man only asks you for one thing here, and then the old man and the others will leave. β
Ao Guangdi looked at the Four Dragons Order, and his heart moved slightly. Ao Qingxuan, who was standing on the side, looked at Helan Qiyou, who was standing behind his father, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated rapidly, just waiting for Helan Chen to say his request.
"I, Helan clan, was originally a Xianbei royal family, with noble blood, and was protected by loyal and martyr retainers for generations. Now that he is seeking to marry the Ao Dragon Clan, what the old man wants is to let the dragon girl with the purest blood and the most noble status among the four dragon clans marry my son Helan and pray for blessings, so that the supreme and noble bloodlines of our two clans will be combined. β
As soon as he spoke, the entire Panlong Hall was in a commotion.
Although Helan Qiyou knew that his father would propose marriage for him, he was also taken aback, because he found that his father's conditions did not completely go his way. My father wanted the most noble dragon girl, and he wanted Ao Qingxuan. But he still suppressed his temper, and then he only needed to make sure that it was Ao Qingxuan who was married.
Ao Qingxuan bore the brunt of the attack, grabbed the powder fist, and felt extremely humiliated. Standing there, he glared at Helan Qiyou fiercely, very angry. He had proposed to her several times, asking her if she wanted to marry him, and said that he would ask for her consent, but now he had taken away her decision-making power, and did not ask her to marry him, as he said.
That's a vile foul!
Ao Guangdi's face was even more pale, and he reluctantly waved his hand to suppress everyone's listening, gritting his teeth. "Helan Gang Leader, do you remember that the old man once said that the dragon girl of his clan does not marry outside?"
"Of course the old man remembers, but the Duke of Guangdi has also publicly promised the old man any request, as long as I hold the Four Dragons Order, the four dragon clans must obey it. If this is the case, the old man and the others can leave the valley immediately. β
The words have been said and gone, Helan Chen doesn't want anything if he doesn't want the dragon girl, so he bets on whether Ao Guangdi will turn back the promise he just made publicly.
Now, whether Ao Guangdi agrees or not, it will shake his status in the dragon clan, and one stone will turn over a thousand huge waves.
After struggling for a while, he finally took the Four Dragons Order, and turned around and quickly left the main hall, Ao Qingxuan left after his father, and the people of the other clans also began to leave separately.
In the end, all that was left was Zixuan and the people of the Haisha Gang, and she slowly turned her head and looked at Gongsun Yuqi and Helan Qiyou and the others.
"Prince Helan wants to marry our eldest lady?"
Helan Qiyou didn't hide it from her anymore and nodded. "You think it's impossible?"
It stands to reason that Ao Guangdi accepted the Four Dragons Order, and the representative agreed even if he was reluctant, but Zixuan's expression made him a little uncertain.
Zixuan shook her head. "The eldest lady is the Qinglong Dragon Girl, and the Qinglong is the head of the four dragon clans, especially the eldest lady inherits the bloodline of the great sect master, the bloodline is pure, and the supreme is noble. Today, if the great sect master agrees to the family affairs, he should not ask the other three clans to hand over the dragon girl, but the eldest lady also has a sister. β
With her understanding of the Great Sect Master, he would rather sacrifice the second miss than allow the eldest lady to marry outside!

"I don't agree! I don't agree! He wants you, I just won't give it!" Ao Guangdi walked back to the territory of the Qinglong clan with a rage that he had never felt before, and before he reached his study, he couldn't help but yell.
Qingxuan followed her father and entered the study together, although she was also extremely angry when she heard that Helan Chen had forced her to marry. Obviously, though, she didn't have the same reason as her father was angry.
"Why did Dad take back the Four Dragons Order?"
She asked Ao Guangdi with just one sentence, because he couldn't talk back in public, his self-esteem and majesty were not allowed, if he just promised in front of everyone and handed over the Four Dragons Order didn't count, who would obey him in the future?
It's just that he doesn't want Helanchen and his son to be satisfied!
He quickly thought of a solution, that is, he wanted to exploit the loophole, and suddenly a hint of joy appeared on his face. "I can marry your sister to him, that doesn't mean I'm untrustworthy, they didn't make it clear that it must be you!"
Qingxuan, who was also as angry as her father, heard her father say this, but she calmed down again, and her smart head began to think, is she really willing to ask her sister to take the top and marry on her behalf?
If she honestly admitted to herself that the Helan family was able to make what was impossible from the beginning possible, she really couldn't help but admire the father and son, who actually asked for such a way to repay their kindness.
Taking a step back, she had promised her father that she would eventually get married, and since she would eventually be tied to any man forever, why couldn't it be Helan Qiyou? He doesn't just want her person, he wants her heart.
In addition to this, the marriage may have had additional benefits for her. She was already eager to see the world, and it didn't hurt her so much to leave her hometown and live in a place she didn't know.
After making up his mind, Mingtai suddenly became clear. "Dad, Qingyu is only sixteen years old, and she can't live outside, but I can. She had made up her mind, and she was starting to make a plan. "After leaving here, I will take this opportunity to find a new place for the dragons to be close to the East China Sea. Or maybe... In the future, if my father and my clan are still willing to accept me, I will be able to return to my hometown one day. β
Ao Guangdi listened to Qingxuan's advice, and began to calm down, and the fact that his daughter was about to leave home to marry was in his mind. He had unspeakable remorse in his heart.
If he had let Qingxuan marry earlier, he would not have taught the father and son of the Helan family to take a fancy to him!
He had thought that the Helan family would definitely go to great lengths to make him pay the greatest price to repay the grace of saving his life, but he thought that there was no price he couldn't afford to pay, and he never thought that they would be so greedy that they intended to get involved in the dragon bloodline!
After he had offered all his treasures and agreed to lend the dragons their powers, they were bent on stealing his favorite treasures despite his objections.
"Daddy, I'm sorry for you! My most beloved and precious daughterβ" He allowed himself to apologize to his daughter, and suddenly felt like he was more than ten years older.
"Don't worry about me, Dad. Wherever I go, I'll be doing well. At this moment, she silently carried the expectation of a new life in her heart, and silently thought about what would happen after leaving the dragon clan.
