CHAPTER 1779: CHAPTER 1778: JIANG AND BAI FAMILY ALLIANCE THROUGH MARRIAGE

"The Lin Clan?"

"The Chu Clan?"

Long Fei and Little Nannan were both surprised when they heard that.

Su Yiyi was also intrigued as she stared at Little Nannan, saying, "Isn’t Nannan’s surname Lin?"

Long Fei furrowed his brows, seemingly understanding the reason behind Little Nannan’s powerful Phoenix Blood.

Among the myriad Lin Clan bloodlines, there must be one whose ancestral return is particularly evident.

The Lin Family, could it be a Divine Clan with a Phoenix Bloodline?

If analyzed through this logic, could it be that Lin Yingying and her sister are also related to this Lin Family?

What puzzled him further was the Chu Clan. Could Chu Feng also be a descendant of the Divine Blood?

That kid has a unique physique, always different from normal people.

If it weren’t for a heritage, Long Fei wouldn’t believe it.

Could it be that Chu Feng’s family is also related to the Divine Clan?

Mother Wuu, after all, knew limited things. No matter what Long Fei asked, she couldn’t answer.

These questions could only be answered by finding the Lin and Chu Clans’ resistance forces in this world.

While they were chatting, Jiang Hengshuo rushed over and excitedly said to Long Fei, "Big Brother, people from Old Bai’s Family are here."

Long Fei sipped his tea and said calmly, "If they’re here, they’re here. Why are you so excited?"

Jiang Hengshuo chuckled, "Big Brother, are you pretending or truly unaware? People from Old Bai’s Family came, naturally for your marriage with Second Miss Bai!"

Su Yiyi frowned slightly, glancing at Long Fei with a strange expression.

Little Nannan cheered happily, "Great, is Daddy going to get a wife?"

Long Fei’s face turned dark, silently wondering what Old Bai’s Family meant by this? Discussing marriage at this time?

Soon, someone came to inform him to go to the front yard.

Long Fei sighed and asked Su Yiyi to take good care of Little Nannan.

He took Jiang Hengshuo with him to the front yard, where he saw Bai Fengling standing at the door of the guest hall looking around.

When she saw Long Fei, she blushed and quickly hid inside the room.

Jiang Hengshuo patted Long Fei on the shoulder and pushed him into the guest hall, waiting outside with a joyous smile.

He was a sharp-minded person and knew some things others didn’t at Iron Tree Ridge.

For example, when Long Fei took action to kill Ying Family Disciples, his method was ruthless, definitely not ordinary.

For survival, he pretended to know nothing.

Whatever Long Fei said, he agreed, which is why he gained Long Fei’s care.

Now he was Long Fei’s major steward, a hot figure in the Jiang Family.

Those who underestimated him before were now eager to curry favor with him.

As soon as he stood still, someone immediately came to serve him tea and offered a chair, full of flattery.

Inside the guest hall, Jiang Zhenkun sat in the main seat.

Clan Chief Bai Zonghan and Bai Fengling sat on the left side, all smiling when they saw Long Fei.

Jiang Zhenkun laughed and instructed, "Look at this kid, how unruly. Seeing Clan Chief Bai, why not quickly pay respects?"

Long Fei gave a dry smile, immediately clasping his fists and bowing to Bai Zonghan.

Bai Zonghan waved his hand and laughed, "No need, we cultivators need not be entangled with worldly rituals."

Long Fei thought, "You bastard, you all talk nicely, who doesn’t enjoy these worldly rituals?"

He sat opposite Bai Zonghan, feigning curiosity as he looked at Jiang Zhenkun, "Grandfather, why did you call me here?"

Bai Fengling pouted slightly, glaring at Long Fei playfully.

Jiang Zhenkun stroked his beard and laughed, "You brat, pretending to play dumb, aren’t you? Sect Master Bai is here for your marriage with Miss Bai. Both family’s Clan Elders have already discussed and unanimously agreed to your marriage. Tomorrow, we’ll set up a banquet at the Jiang Family to have an engagement meal and finalize your wedding date. Don’t say Grandfather didn’t warn you; Fengling is a good girl. If you dare bully her, even without Clan Chief Bai’s intervention, I’ll be the first to thrash you."

Long Fei covered his face, laughing awkwardly.

Bai Fengling couldn’t help but chuckle and said sweetly to Jiang Zhenkun, "Grandfather, don’t worry, I trust Hengyuan, he definitely won’t bully me."

Jiang Zhenkun and Bai Zonghan both laughed and joked to Bai Fengling, "See, they say daughters are outgoing. She hasn’t even married over, and she’s speaking for my grandson, not even letting me criticize her husband."

Bai Zonghan shook his head and laughed, "Indeed, raised her for seventeen years, and now she’s benefitting someone else!"

"Dad!"

Bai Fengling blushed and pinched Bai Zonghan, feeling too shy to lift her head.

Jiang Zhenkun smiled and instructed Long Fei to take Bai Fengling out to tour the Jiang Family; he had words to discuss with Sect Master Bai.

Long Fei and Bai Fengling stood to leave, feeling anxious about how to continue the act.

Fortunately, tomorrow was just an engagement, not a wedding. What if they got married before leaving Celestial Mystery City?

Would he enter the bridal chamber or not?

Bai Fengling, seeing his troubled and gloomy appearance, pinched him with dissatisfaction, saying, "You jerk, why aren’t you happy at all?"

Long Fei sighed, "I’m worried!"

Bai Fengling immediately frowned and asked, "Worried? Worried about what? Do you not want to marry me?"

Long Fei joked, "No, I’m worried about the betrothal gifts. I’m just a poor kid; my parents passed away when I was young. How can I prepare betrothal gifts for your family?"

Bai Fengling giggled, "Are you really dumb or just pretending? The matter of betrothal gifts has long been settled by your grandfather; there’s no need for you to worry. Besides, I don’t care about these things. Even if you prepare just a piece of cloth, I would still marry you."

Long Fei raised his hand to touch her head, feeling guilt filling his heart.

"Damn it, I just wanted to impersonate Jiang Hengyuan to handle some matters, never thought about pretending to marry someone’s wife."

The deeper Bai Fengling is trapped, the greater her hatred for him in the future!

Seeing them come out together, Jiang Hengshuo tactfully withdrew without being a third wheel, leaving on his own.

Long Fei took Bai Fengling for a stroll around the Jiang Family.

The chaos Chu Feng and his group had caused hadn’t been light, and the Jiang Family was repairing the house inside and out.

They found a pavilion in the garden at the back and sat down.

Bai Fengling, seeing no one around, couldn’t help but hug Long Fei’s arm, her face blushing as she asked him, "Do you know why my father agreed to our marriage so readily?"

"Why?"

Long Fei was also curious about why Bai Zonghan suddenly thought of marriage.

These days, with Celestial Mystery City on high alert and people in panic, it’s not a good time for marriage discussions.

Bai Fengling whispered to him, "I heard from Mother that it seems Heaven-Piercing Pavilion from Celestial Realms City sent someone down, preparing to select disciples in various cities to attend the Enlightenment ceremony at Immortal King Palace. The Jiang and Bai Families’ alliance can jointly resist risks. In the future, when going to Celestial Realms City, they can look after each other."

"Heaven-Piercing Pavilion?"

Long Fei raised his eyebrows in curiosity, "Isn’t it just selecting a disciple, why would it need both families to form an alliance? Even if we don’t ally, I would still look after you. What does it have to do with the two families?"

Bai Fengling sighed, "You don’t know, those from Heaven-Piercing Pavilion are always arrogant. Before, when they came down, their behavior was unpleasant everywhere. Imagine, these disciples don’t have much to gain at Celestial Realms City. When they come down, wouldn’t they take this opportunity to seek benefits? Our local families have always been compliant. It’s said that before, a family clan leader’s wife was snatched away, and he didn’t dare to make a sound, even delightedly handed his wife over!"

"Really?"

Long Fei frowned and smiled.

He’s not afraid of these superiors causing trouble, but afraid they won’t.

As long as they stir trouble.

By that time, he could leverage them to take down Celestial Mystery City.
