Chapter 33: The Patriarch Proposes
As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Before Tian Hu and the others could go back, the news of the defeat had spread quickly within the Tian Sect, and many people hurriedly ran to the clan's council hall after hearing about it to find out what had happened.
At this time, the atmosphere in the council hall was extremely serious, and the elders of the clan sat down on the chairs in the front row with their heads bowed and no one spoke.
There was a "pop" sound, and a jingzhi porcelain pot was thrown to the ground, and the powerful impact made it powdery.
"Bastard, it's a shame to be defeated! Order Tian Long to be grounded for a month!" Tian Yaokun burst out with all the anger he had endured after returning to the clan.
Tian Long's failure this time not only caused the clan to lose 100 mid-grade spirit stones, but more importantly, he lost face in front of several other clans. was originally going to bully people, but it was slapped in public.
"This Wu resentment, how could there be such a powerful figure in the Wu clan!" said Patriarch Tian hatefully.
"Patriarch, the appearance of this Wu resentment is very detrimental to our sect. Originally, there were many good seedlings among the younger generation of our sect, and if we focus on cultivating, they will all become the guarantee of our sect in the future. But suddenly killing a Wu grudge, the skill overshadowed all the juniors of our sect, if the queen grows up, my sect will always fall into the disadvantage. A diminutive elder said. He was the third elder of the clan, and his small eyes revealed a poisonous gaze.
"What the third elder said is extremely true, I also heard that this kid suddenly jumped up in the past two years, two years ago he was still the second layer of Yuan Qi, and he actually reached the eighth layer of Yuan Qi in such a short time, which is really sensational. Patriarch Tian said worriedly.
When the patriarch was talking, he saw that the three elders were glaring at him, and then said loudly: "All the elders are scattered, go back to cultivate the descendants of my sect." ”
After the three elders dispersed with the elders, they turned around and returned to the council hall.
"What do the three elders have to say?" Patriarch Tian asked the three elders.
"Patriarch, my sect has a grudge against such a genius, and it will definitely become a big trouble in the future. From this point of view, why don't we strike first to prevent future troubles!" the third elder stretched out his hand and wiped it on his neck, and said viciously.
Tian Yaokun hesitated for a moment and then said, "Okay! According to what the Third Elder said, but this person must not be from my sect. ”
"Patriarch, don't worry, I have my own candidates. I'll go into the city and look for it!" said the third elder.
"The three elders are all careful. This matter can only be known to you and me, and you must not spread it to the outside world, and you must not expose our sect when you go out this time!" the patriarch admonished.
"Obey what the patriarch said!" the three elders said and exited the council room.
"Boy, don't blame me for being ruthless, if you want to blame yourself, blame yourself for being too showy. Tian Yaokun muttered to himself.
Compared to the gloomy atmosphere of the Tian clan, the Wu clan was a land of joy. Wu Yan defeated Tian Hu this time, so that the Wu clan earned enough face, the patriarch was very satisfied with Wu Yan, and when Ri personally set up a banquet to celebrate Wu Yan.
"Xia'er, are you secretly drinking again? Do you want to marry your daughter's family in the future? The patriarch saw Wu Xia secretly drinking at the party, and said lovingly.
"Xia'er doesn't marry, she will always stay by Abba's side. "Wu Xia's mother gave birth to her because of dystocia, and she just gave birth to her. Patriarch Wu did not marry again because he missed his beloved wife. Therefore, Wu Xia relied on the patriarch when she was a child.
"Silly boy, how can there be a big girl who doesn't marry, what are you doing guarding me as an old man when the time comes?" the patriarch stroked Wu Xia's head and said affectionately.
"Is Abba trying to drive me away?" Wu Xia pretended to complain.
"Again, you're eighteen years old, and it's time to get married," said the patriarch.
"Abba......" Wu Xia's cheeks were a little red, and she said shyly.
"Xia'er, what do you think of this person?" asked the patriarch.
"Wu Yan is very good, diligent and hardworking, brave and strategic, dare to take responsibility, Abba you have to cultivate well!" Wu Xia praised.
"It's rare for us Xia'er to praise a peer so much! Could it be that you have taken a fancy to Wu and resented it?" the patriarch quipped.
"Abba hates it, and won't tell you. After Wu Xia finished speaking, she ran away with a blushing face.
"It seems that Xia'er is really interested in Wu Resentment, and I have to come forward!" the patriarch was overjoyed.
At the wine table in another place, more than a dozen people were surrounding Wu Yan.
"Wu complains that you are too powerful, how did you use your double blades, can you teach us?" asked an internal disciple.
Wu Yan's earlier victory in the clan competition was to gain face for the external children, but it made the internal children feel very embarrassed, and they also lost the championship by possessing good cultivation resources, so Wu Yan has been hostile to the internal children after the clan competition.
But this competition is different, it is to defeat the champion of the clan competition of other clans and win glory for his own clan. So the previous mustard was eliminated at once, and now they are all vying to come over and drink with Wu.
"That requires Jing's divine power, you can't learn it. Wu Yan said.
"Then how did you learn Jing's divine power and teach us. The kid wondered.
"I started it in the middle of the night when I was struck by lightning, and I can't learn this," Wu Yan reminded.
But who knew that after the incident, the news spread ten, ten, hundreds, and people from several surrounding clans knew about it. So that once it rains and thunders, there will be a few brave people standing on the roof waiting to be struck by lightning, but this is all for later.
"Here comes the patriarch," someone said.
"Hello Patriarch!" everyone quickly got up and bowed.
"You continue to eat and drink, and Wu complains that you will come to my house for a visit. The patriarch commanded.
"Yes, Patriarch. Wu replied. I thought to myself, "What big things still need to be discussed at the house." ”
Second, Wu Yan came to the patriarch's mansion early.
"What is the patriarch looking for me?" Wu said strangely.
"Wu Yan, the patriarch thanks you for standing up and winning honor for the clan in this time of crisis for the clan. The patriarch complimented.
"The clan has raised me for so many years, and this is what I should do. Wu replied.
"Good man, Wu complains that I am asking you, what do you think of my family Wu Xia?" asked the patriarch.
"Of course Sister Wu Xia is good, she is beautiful and kind-hearted. Wu Yan concluded.
"Then how about I marry Wu Xia Xu to you?" said the patriarch suddenly.
Patriarch Wu was particularly satisfied with Wu's grievances. This kid is merit but not proud, he doesn't talk much, but he can stand up at a critical moment, and he won the championship in this clan competition, and more importantly, Wu Xia still has affection for him, so he intends to match the two of them, so he can also rest assured.
"What......" Wu Yan was directly thundered by the patriarch, and his heart almost jumped out. "You open... Are you kidding?" Wu said resentfully.
"My daughter's life's event, how can you joke. The patriarch looked at Wu Yan's expression and smiled.
"The patriarch can't do this. Wu Yan hesitated for a while and said.
"What, isn't my daughter Wu Xia worthy of you?" the patriarch was a little unhappy. The dignified patriarch personally proposed marriage for his daughter and was refused, which made the patriarch a little unable to get off the stage.
"Patriarch, you misunderstood, Sister Wu Xia has taken special care of me since I was a child, and I also treat Wu Xia as a sister in my heart, so I have never considered this aspect, and I hope that the patriarch will understand, and Wu is grateful. Wu Yan arched his hand.
The patriarch was helpless: "Alas, you child, how many people are begging to marry, I still can't look at it, you have to hide far away." ”
"Please atone for your sins, patriarch!" Wu Yan said.
"Well, what are you guilty of, I am the one who made my own decisions. Stand down!" said the patriarch.
"Boy, there is one more thing to repay?" Wu Yan said.
"But it doesn't hurt," replied the patriarch.
"There is still a year to enroll students at Longquan College, I think these riddlers will set off, go early, and treat it as an experience along the way. Wu Yan said.
"Longquan Academy is the best academy in my continent, you have such ambitions, no wonder you have no time to take care of your children's personal affairs, okay! The patriarch supports you! No one in my sect has ever been admitted to Longquan Academy, and I was eliminated when I went. If you go out, you will definitely win glory for the clan!" said the patriarch excitedly.
"Wu Yan will definitely live up to the patriarch's expectations!" Wu Yan replied loudly.
