After finishing speaking, Venerable Cangyuan stared coldly at Xiahou Nan and snorted:
"It seems that King Xiahou did not take my previous words to heart!"
Xiahou Nan calmly glanced back at him and chuckled.
"Your Majesty is mistaken. The Demon Slayer Sect is, after all, a member of my Demon Suppression Kingdom."
"If something happens and I, the king, do nothing about it, what will others think?"
At this point, his smile vanished, and his expression became incredibly domineering.
"The Holy Lord has said that if a disciple is in trouble, then the sect is in trouble."
"If our Demon-Suppressing Kingdom wants long-term peace and stability, it naturally needs to cooperate and help each other with other sects!"
Upon hearing this, Venerable Cangyuan's face immediately turned ashen, and he couldn't help but let out a loud, cold laugh:
"Hehe, what a fine example of mutual support and shared destiny! King Xiahou, what a spirit you have! I just hope you won't regret it later!"
After saying that, he turned and left without looking at anyone again.
Seeing this scene.
The high-ranking members of the Demon Slayer Sect all looked surprised and astonished.
As a sixth-tribulation cultivator, Xiahou Nan naturally didn't need to be too afraid of Cang Yuan.
However, when it comes to top-tier combat power, the Demon Suppression Kingdom is no match for the Boundless Holy Land.
Zeng Mushen couldn't understand why Xiahou Nan would offend Cang Yuan for the sake of the Demon Slayer Sect.
When his gaze swept over Chu Mo and Xiahou Ruoxi to the side, he suddenly seemed to understand something.
I'm afraid Xiahou Nan isn't after the Demon Slayer Sect, but rather after the young master.
hey-hey……
They're all old foxes after all.
Is this a gamble on the young master's future and his background?
But he pretended not to know about these things, and even welcomed them.
If a marriage alliance could be formed with the Demon Suppression Kingdom, it would naturally be beneficial and harmless for the young master.
Moreover, being from the same Demon-Suppressing Kingdom, they had heard of this second princess.
She is exceptionally intelligent and beautiful, possesses extraordinary talent, and is of pure and kind nature; she would be an outstanding choice in the entire Southern Region.
It is said that four out of the Five Princes of the Southern Region are pursuing her.
If she were to marry her own son, they would indeed be a very good match.
only……
The two stunningly beautiful women that the young master brought earlier were equally gorgeous and in no way inferior to Princess Ruoxi.
Even he was impressed by the cultivation talent of one of them.
If Xiahou Nan wants to arrange a marriage, he will probably have to accept that his daughter will have to share a husband with another man.
After everyone took their seats in the main hall, they chatted for a while, and Xiahou Nan's topic turned to Chu Mo.
"I wonder who Young Master Chu's master is? How could he have nurtured such a peerless genius as you?"
As soon as Xiahou Nan said this, Guan Banshan and Xiahou Ruoxi immediately perked up their ears.
The latter's beautiful, bright eyes were fixed on Chu Mo without blinking.
"You flatter me, senior. As for my master, he has lived in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, and it is really inconvenient to tell him his real name. Please forgive me, senior."
Chu Mo made up a story off the top of his head, but his face was serious as he spoke.
Xiahou Nan had no doubt about his words.
Those who live in seclusion, detached from worldly affairs, and devoted solely to the pursuit of immortality are countless in the Kunlun Realm.
Those people were even more pure than them, and many of them were Ninth Tribulation cultivators.
His master must have been one of those highly accomplished individuals.
Otherwise, how can we explain why Chu Mo was previously unknown?
Now, however, he soars into the sky and kills a cultivator at the fourth tribulation level.
"Haha, it's alright. People like your master, who are so devoted to the Great Dao, are the role models for us. No wonder he was able to cultivate such a peerless genius as Young Master Chu."
Xiahou Nan didn't seem to care, his face full of emotion, before he asked with a seemingly casual smile:
"Young Master Chu is not only exceptionally talented but also handsome. I wonder if he is married yet?"
"If not, this old man would like to act as a good matchmaker for you, young master, haha..."
Chu Mo was slightly taken aback, not understanding why the conversation had drifted to his marriage, but he still answered truthfully:
"I'm not married yet, but I do have a few people I'm interested in."
"They all have deep affection for the younger generation, so there's no need for the king to go to the trouble of matchmaking."
Hearing this, Xiahou Nan was slightly disappointed, but not entirely surprised.
Who isn't a bit of a playboy in their youth?
A handsome and exceptionally talented young man like Chu Mo would certainly have no shortage of beautiful women by his side.
only……
He still had some reservations about marrying his beloved daughter off to someone else as a concubine.
Even if that person is Chu Mo.
"It seems I've been overthinking things. How could a prodigy like Young Master Chu not have a beautiful companion by his side?"
Xiahou Nan could only laugh it off and not bring it up again for the time being.
It's best to go back and consult your daughter before making a decision on this matter.
At this moment, Xiahou Ruoxi felt a sense of loss welling up inside her for some reason.
It's unclear whether it's because Chu Mo already has someone he likes, or because his father simply stopped mentioning it.
In short, the girl was not in a good mood at the moment, and even her eyes were somewhat dim.
Chu Mo didn't notice anything.
He just felt that the way the girl looked at him was a little strange.
It's like... a child who didn't get any candy, with a slightly resentful look in their eyes.
But he didn't think much of it.
Xiahou Nan did not mention the marriage alliance again, but he was extremely worried about the decisive battle two days later.
"Young Master Chu, how confident are you about the battle the day after tomorrow?"
"I wouldn't dare say I'm sure, maybe five or six out of ten," Chu Mo said, not daring to be too certain.
"Five or six points?"
Not to mention Xiahou Nan and the others, even Zeng Mushen was startled by these words.
They all knew that the young master was not one to boast.
