"Yan'er, how could you be so foolish? I have waited for you for so many years. Am I not as good as you and a man you have only met a few days ago?" Dongfang Yifei could no longer hold back. He had always thought that Nangong Ziyan was very naive, and that she had stayed in the South China Sea Glazed Palace for sixteen years and did not understand many things. But now, he realized that he was wrong. She was not the Nangong Ziyan he saw on the surface.
"Hey! Young Master Dongfang, is there such a thing as first come, first served in love? Didn't Sister Yan'er say that she likes Haotian? They're mutually in love, so it's your turn to step aside, Young Master Dongfang." Tian Haoze couldn't stand it anymore. He couldn't believe that Dongfang Yifei truly wanted to marry Yan'er.
"It's none of an outsider's business to interfere in my affairs." Dongfang Yifei, who was in a fit of anger, spoke harshly and didn't give Tian Haoze a friendly look.
"Outsider?" Tian Haoze smiled indifferently. "I am Yan'er's brother, how could I be an outsider?" Tian Haoze looked at Dongfang Yifei sarcastically, his smile seemingly indifferent, but those who knew him knew that beneath that indifferent smile lay a deep anger.
"Yan'er only has two older brothers. When did she get another one?" Dongfang Yifei looked at Nangong Ziyan angrily. It would have been fine if she hadn't come out, but now that she has, she has attracted the attention of some low-class people.
"You say you want to marry Sister Yan'er? You don't even know when Sister Yan'er gained a brother? What makes you think you can say you want to marry her? Young Master Dongfang, please make way. We need to get going!" Tian Haoze stepped forward. "Sister Yan'er, let's go!"
"Mm!" Nangong Ziyan nodded, said no more, and left side by side with Beiming Haotian.
"Yan'er." Dongfang Yifei quickly grabbed Nangong Ziyan's hand.
"Yan'er, you know me very well. I can ignore any woman, and I can be insincere with any woman, but I am sincere with you." Dongfang Yifei said with deep affection. If he couldn't marry Nangong Ziyan, the Dongfang Continent would be laughed at.
"Let go." Nangong Ziyan forcefully shook off Dongfang Yifei's hand, glaring at him, and said, "Yifei, I can't see a trace of sincerity in your eyes. I've already said it, I, Nangong Ziyan, will only marry the person I love. As long as I don't want to, no one can force me." Nangong Ziyan suddenly seemed like a different person, her tone unusually cold. She had lived quietly for sixteen years, simply because at the time of her birth, she saw those lonely and painful eyes, which deeply moved her heart. In order to see him again, he became the pillar of her life. Now that she had met him again, she would not give up.
"Yan'er, no matter what you say, I, Dongfang Yifei, will not give up." Dongfang Yifei's face was firm, but he regretted his drunken words. Now, too many people were eyeing Nangong Ziyan, especially with that rumor that everyone in the world knew about her background. Now, he was really in a dilemma.
"That's your choice, Haotian, let's go." Nangong Ziyan ignored Dongfang Yifei. She knew Dongfang Yifei's personality. From childhood to adulthood, everything was decided by his mother. Although he had his own opinions, most of the time, he agreed with his mother. The two of them were alike.
Looking in the direction where Nangong Ziyan, Beiming Haotian, and the other two disappeared, Dongfang Yifei stared at them with a gloomy expression. His sinister eyes seemed to see right through them, and his whole body was tense with anger.
"Oh! Young Master Dongfang, your fiancée has been taken away, and you're really keeping your composure! Now the whole world knows about your affair. If Nangong Liuli Palace refuses the marriage, the East Sea Continent will become a laughing stock." Ximen Chunxue said with a smile, but anyone could see the scheming in her eyes. What's wrong with all the men in the world? Why are they all revolving around Nangong Ziyan?
"Xue'er, don't talk nonsense." Ximen Ruiyun glared at Ximen Chunxue. Why was she causing trouble at this time?
"Young Master Dongfang, it's a pleasure to meet you. My younger sister isn't very good at speaking." Ximen Ruiyun apologized on behalf of Ximen Chunxue, her eyes also filled with apology as she looked at Dongfang Yifei.
“Brother, Xue’er is not wrong! Miss Nangong is indeed the fiancé of Young Master Dongfang. Everyone in the world knows this!” Ximen Chunxue pretended to be completely at ease.
While they were talking, Baili Jun'ao didn't linger. He exchanged a glance with Hong Yiming and quickly followed them out.
"Young Master of the Western Regions, it's been a long time. However, Princess Chunxue is right. If the Eastern Sea Continent cannot marry Nangong Ziyan, it will surely become a laughing stock of the world. But I, the young master, will not let this joke happen." Dongfang Yifei generously admitted, and was full of confidence. He would not let this laughing stock happen. His mother would reunite with him as soon as possible. It was time, and he would definitely be able to persuade Nangong Yuze.
"If Young Master has such confidence, then we in the Western Regions will await the good news. We hope that Young Master will grace us with his presence so that the people of the Western Regions can come and have a drink at the celebration." Ximen Chunxue smiled coldly. She thought that Dongfang Yifei would never see that day. Now everyone in the world wanted to have Nangong Ziyan, but did the East Sea Continent really dare to oppose the Demon Lord?
"We'll see when the time comes!" Dongfang Yifei said, then turned and walked away, leaving the person behind him.
"Xue'er, I told you not to meddle in other people's business. Who told you to talk back? Let's go." Ximen Ruiyun was a little unhappy. It seemed that her younger sister still didn't learn her lesson.
"Yes, Big Brother." Ximen Chunxue followed behind Ximen Ruiyun with a somewhat aggrieved expression.
In early spring, the mornings are still a bit chilly, and many branches are beginning to sprout buds. However, some wild cherry blossoms by the roadside are already in full bloom, looking beautiful and vibrant.
On the way to Lingxian Island, the sound of horses' hooves approached. A luxuriously decorated carriage, gleaming with gold and jewels, and carved with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, was being pulled by two large horses. The banner at the front of the carriage bore two large gilded characters: Beiming.
Inside the carriage, the sounds of men and women laughing and joking could be heard from time to time.
"Brother, do you think we'll encounter that monster on this trip?" The man who spoke was dressed in a white robe, with delicate features and a heroic air. His sharp eyes, however, carried a frivolous and sarcastic tone. He was Bei Ming Yuehen, the second young master of the Northern Underworld Continent.
His words silenced the people in the carriage instantly.
