"Propose?"

Zhenzhou City, in the lobby of the Zi family, when Zi Yanfei heard these two words, his head couldn't help but bang.

All the people who had some status in the Zi family, except for a few who were secretly happy below, the rest were stunned.

Just now, Duan Changkong, the head of the Duan family, came without warning.

And he didn't come empty-handed, but brought a group of family members, pulling large boxes and small boxes and carts of gifts.

Even if most of the people in the Purple Family don't treat Duan Changkong very well, after all, he is the head of the top family, and he is also a powerhouse in the Soul Realm, as the Purple Family who has just become a first-class family, it must also be regarded as an extremely important matter to welcome the clan.

After all, the Zi family's heritage is not deep enough, and all aspects are too far from the Duan family's deep-rooted behemoth, as long as people do something, it is enough for the Zi family to drink a pot.

Helplessly, the Zi family had to respectfully invite people in, even if Zi Yanfei was unwilling in his heart, he had to consider the entire family.

At the beginning, Zi Yanfei didn't know which one Duan Changkong was playing, why he came with a gift for no reason, if it was to congratulate the Zi family on being promoted to a first-class family, it seemed that there was no need for this, he always remembered Duan Changkong's attitude towards the Zi family.

Duan Changkong was also straight to the point, as if he didn't want to give the Zi family any chance to react, and before he could say a few words, he directly stated the purpose of this trip.

Only then did the people of the Zi family know that Duan Changkong was here for his eldest son Duan Tianyang, and the target was Zi Ning'er.

As soon as this matter was said, it was like throwing a heavy list in the Zi family* and it exploded with a "boom", which shocked the entire Zi family at a loss.

The vast majority of people frowned, shaking their heads secretly, they were not optimistic about this marriage in their hearts, the Duan family had not oppressed the Zi family in the past.

Besides, who is Zi Ning'er, although it is not the blood and blood of the Zi family, it is no different, it is Zi Teng's childhood sweetheart, Zi Yanfei's heart.

Since Zi Teng led the children of the family to win the family qualifying competition, Zi Yanfei and Zi Teng father and son are in the family, both in prestige and status, no one can shake in the Zi family, and Zi Teng has become a banner among the younger generation of the entire Zi family.

It can be said that without Zi Teng, there would be no current status of the Zi family, although Zi Teng's life and death are uncertain, but many people still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts, if Zi Ning'er is married like this, once Zi Teng comes back, then it won't be fried?

There are also some people, just stayed for a while, and their hearts began to live, thinking that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if they lean on the big tree of the Duan family, then they will not have to go sideways in the future, anyway, Zi Teng may not be able to come back, and the position of the young family head will have to be replaced sooner or later, so what can Zi Ning'er be sacrificed?

Zi Ning'er was also shocked after hearing this, because of the low mood caused by her thoughts about Zi Teng these days, coupled with such a breath, she couldn't help but almost collapse, but at this time, she couldn't express her opinions casually, so she had to endure it and see what happened next.

"Ahh......h

Zi Yanfei was silent for a moment, but just as he was about to speak, he couldn't help coughing, because Zi Teng's matter made him relapse of hidden disease, these days, his body has been declining, and even his cultivation has a downward trend, and after knowing the purpose of Duan Changkong's coming, he is even more angry.

After taking a long breath, Zi Yanfei hugged his fists and said a little weakly: "Master Duan, Ning'er can be so loved by the Duan family, it is the prosperity of the Zi family, but it is ......"

After a pause, he said: "However, Ning'er is still young, and talking about marriage too early may affect her cultivation, and now that the catastrophe is approaching, as a child of my human race, I should temper myself more in this limited time, so as to live up to the hopes of the human race." ”

"Master Duan, do you think this matter will be said in a few years?"

After Zi Yanfei finished speaking, he hugged his fists again, and deliberately looked at Duan Changkong with a hint of apology, although he was reluctant in his heart, but for the sake of the Zi family, he couldn't just refuse strongly, so he had to persuade him with the righteousness of the human race, and find a way to delay it.

"Hey, the purple family master's words are different. ”

It seemed that he had expected that Zi Yanfei would not agree, but Duan Changkong was not angry, leaned back in the chair and waved his hand: "If you want to say that Miss Ning'er is still young, isn't that a preference? If the news that my Duan family got is correct, in ten days, Miss Ning'er will be eighteen years old, right? What's more, the matter of marriage does not necessarily affect cultivation, right? With my Duan family's financial resources, are you still afraid that Miss Ning'er's cultivation resources are not enough?"

"What's more, I don't necessarily have to let them get married right now when I come this time. ”

Duan Changkong said this, but Zi Yanfei hurriedly asked, "It's not a marriage, it's ......."

"Engaged. ”

Duan Changkong said domineeringly, and then said: "Didn't you say that Miss Ning'er is still young? Then let my son Tianyang and Miss Ning'er's marriage be booked in advance, and when Miss Ning'er completes her studies in the Soul Martial Academy and reaches the Earth Soul Realm, can we let the two of them get married?"

"Huh? This ......"

After hearing this, Zi Yanfei frowned fiercely, and the others also talked about it.

What is the difference between this engagement and the completion of the marriage, it's just that the procedure is missing, if this is engaged, Ning Er is nominally a member of his Duan family, with Duan Tianyang's character, he can't say when he will forcibly take Ning Er away, no, I don't think it's right.

As soon as Zi Yanfei wanted to speak, he heard Duan Changkong say in a gloomy voice: "Why, does the head of the Zi family look down on my Duan family? ”

As soon as these words came out, Zi Yanfei fell into a dilemma, and he quickly thought about how to get this matter over, so as not to offend the Duan family too hard.

Just thinking about it, he heard Duan Changkong say pointedly: "The Zi family has just become a first-class family, everything is waiting to be happy, if something suddenly goes wrong, it will be a fight in vain, your Zi family master is not afraid, but where do you put so many people from the Zi family?"

Threats, *naked threats.

When Zi Yanfei heard this, he stood up with a "rub".

At the beginning, he showed weakness, it was for the sake of the family and to take care of the Duan family's face, but such a threat aroused Zi Yanfei's blood.

Moreover, Zi Ning'er is not only his righteous daughter, but also his appointed daughter-in-law, how can he let others get involved, when he sees that he really can't shirk it, he plans to have a showdown with Duan Changkong directly, for the sake of his children, even if he beats the Zi family back to the prototype, he will not hesitate to do it, it's a big deal to start all over again.

So he said in a deep voice: "Master Duan, the Terran Tribulation is at the head, although my Purple Family is not good, it is also a force of the Terran Race, how can I be coerced by others, there is the City Lord's Mansion, and then there is the Elders' House, even if your Duan family is good, can you still destroy all our Purple Family?"

After speaking, he sat back on the chair, holding his head high, and was not afraid of Duan Changkong's threat.

"Hmph, Zi Yanfei, don't eat penalty wine for toasting. ”

Duan Changkong couldn't help but snort when he heard this, patted his chair, slowly stood up, and said with a gloomy face: "Don't you dare?" Tell you Zi Yanfei, if you don't agree to today's matter, what can you do if you destroy the Zi family, the City Lord's Mansion can still ask my Duan family for sin, the Zi family has been destroyed at that time, even the Elders' House won't say anything." ”

"I'll give you one last chance, to make it or not?"

As he spoke, an awe-inspiring aura suddenly rose up on his body, and then spread outward, filling the entire lobby in a dark blue fog.

"Poof......

The momentum of the Pan Soul Realm is something that ordinary people can bear, even if Duan Changkong didn't use all his strength, with Zi Yanfei's distance, he was pressed so much that a mouthful of blood spurted out.

And the other clansmen were also overwhelmed by this momentum, and many people in the hall began to tremble.

"Ah, Duan, the Duan family master is angry. ”

It was the Great Elder Zi Yanguang who spoke.

Although Zi Yanguang has been temporarily deprived of the right to participate in the family's major affairs, Bi Jing is still the great elder of the family, and he still has the right to participate in such a major event as Duan Changkong's visit.

Seeing Zi Yanguang's attitude, Duan Changkong also slowly retracted his momentum, but after Zi Yanguang breathed a sigh of relief, he gave a deep salute, and said a little flatteringly: "The Duan family master is angry, let's discuss something, since we are all about to become a family, what else can't be solved in that family?"

"Family?"

Not only Zi Yanfei was stunned, but Duan Changkong was also stunned, and everyone in the Zi family was stunned.

"Hey, hey. ”

Zi Yan laughed, he saw an opportunity here, if he used it well, maybe he could control the family, and hurriedly said: "Isn't the head of the Duan family here to propose marriage, a family like the Duan family, can look at the young lady of which family, that is the blessing of which family for several generations, I think this family affair is a great joy." ”

After speaking, he deliberately amplified his voice, and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "I'm not doing this for anything else, but for the sake of the entire Purple Family, for the sake of all the people of the Purple Family, if I can have the help of the Duan Family, the Purple Family will definitely be more brilliant." ”

"Great Elder, ...... you" Zi Yanfei couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, and his eyes burned with anger when he looked at Zi Yanguang.

"Big Brother ......"

Zi Yanming, who had never spoken, also stood up and looked at Zi Yanguang's face full of astonishment.

Many family members also looked at Zi Yanguang in surprise, they didn't expect him to say such a thing.

However, there are also many family members who are thoughtful, and some of them are attracted by the interests that Zi Yanguang said.

At this time, for some reason, Zi Yanguang's eyes lit up, and he actually looked at Duan Changkong with some flattery, and nodded intentionally or unintentionally.

It turned out that just now, Duan Changkong had secretly transmitted a message to Zi Yanguang, saying that if he could facilitate this matter, he would definitely help him control the Zi family, and his son would also become the heir of the family.

Duan Changkong could make such a promise to him, of course he would secretly rejoice, so he pretended to say: "Yan Fei, Yan Ming, this is a major matter involving the rise and fall of the family, since you don't care about the family and these family children, then I, the great elder, can only stand up and make decisions for them." ”

"You're in charge?"

Zi Yanfei said angrily: "Great Elder, you don't have the right to participate in the family's major affairs now, how can you be the master?"

"Yes, big brother, this matter must not be so hasty. Zi Yanming also persuaded on the side.

"Shut up. ”

With Duan Changkong as a backer, Zi Yanguang immediately gained confidence, and couldn't help shouting: "Are you still the head of the family and the second elder, you only care about your own selfishness, can't you think about the family?"

Then he said: "I think this matter still has to be voted on by the people here." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the people in the hall: "You, those who agree stand on the left, and those who disagree stand on the right." ”

Hearing the Great Elder's words, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while, but in the end, many people still stood on the left.

At this time, Zi Yanguang said again: "The interests of the family are your interests, without interests, you are not a fart, maybe one day you go out and encounter something, even the family can't control you." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar below, and soon, more people stood on the left, and even those who didn't think about it involuntarily leaned over.

"See, this is the wish of the clansmen. ”

Seeing that there were more people who chose to agree, Zi Yanguang looked at Zi Yanfei and said sarcastically.

"You guys, are you all so spineless, are you still the son of my Zi family?" Zi Yanfei looked at everyone with some anger, but more, it was a kind of disappointment for them.

As soon as Zi Yanfei spoke, the person who was originally standing on the left was a little lively, and several people had already made a move, wanting to return to the right.

But at this moment, I heard Duan Changkong say there without knowing whether it was intentional or unintentional: "I heard that Zi Teng's life and death are uncertain, in order to help the Zi family find Zi Teng, I have sent a large number of people to the Yunxia Mountain Range, if he is still alive and can continue to live, my Duan family can only do their best." ”

As soon as these words came out, others were nothing, but Zi Yanfei was shocked, he could hear what Duan Changkong meant, that is, once he found Ziteng, life and death were all in his hands, and he couldn't help but feel powerless.

And at this time, a voice full of sorrow came: "Don't say it, I, agree!"

As soon as everyone saw it, it was Zi Ning'er who walked out with heavy steps, and in her dark eyes, the tears had not yet dried, and her little face was extremely haggard.

Seeing this, Zi Yanfei sat back with a butt, extremely painful.

Many clansmen, including Zi Yanguang, couldn't help but shake their heads gloomily, they knew that Zi Ning'er had made such a decision for, no one had to persuade them, and they couldn't persuade them.

"Hahaha, okay. ”

Duan Changkong laughed and said, "It's still Miss Ning'er, and ten days later, I will personally invite all major families to come and watch the ceremony." ”

As he spoke, he laughed again and walked away with the children of the family.

"Brother Teng, forgive me!"

Zi Ning'er closed her eyes gently, and the crystal tears fell again, and the pain in her heart could not be described in words.

And Zi Teng, who was far away outside Xingmo City, only felt that his heart was getting more and more painful......
