Yang Anqi never expected Bai Ying to retaliate like this. Instantly, her face turned bright red, like a ripe tomato, and she roared angrily, "What did you say? You little brat from the backwaters! Don't put on airs in front of me. I'm warning you, Senior Brother Ding has very high standards and would never be interested in you. Give up on that idea! He will never marry you!"
Bai Ying clearly didn't expect Yang Anqi to say such a thing.
Senior Brother Ding Yan?
She couldn't understand why Yang Anqi was talking about Ding Yan.
She had absolutely no connection with Ding Yan.
Ding Yan obviously didn't expect that Yang Anqi knew about his master's plan; he wanted him to marry Bai Ying.
Now that Yang Anqi had put it this way, he quickly stood up and said to Bai Ying, "Bai Ying, that's indeed the case. Master wants me to marry you. But I must tell you, that's absolutely impossible. You and I are from two completely different worlds. I could never marry you, so please give up on this idea completely."
Ding Yan was unaware that this was merely his master's one-sided idea. He mistakenly believed it was a plan agreed upon by his master and Bai Ying's master.
At this moment, his gaze toward Bai Ying was filled with disdain.
He simply didn't believe that Bai Ying would be completely unaware of what was going on. Perhaps it was all a deliberate scheme by Bai Ying, with the intention of attaching herself to him and clinging to him. With this suspicion in mind, his words towards Bai Ying were naturally sharp and merciless.
He bluntly told Bai Ying that the two came from completely different worlds, as if there was an insurmountable chasm between them. His implication was that Bai Ying should face reality and stop indulging in wishful thinking.
He imagined that Bai Ying would be extremely embarrassed upon hearing this, perhaps even losing face in public and bursting into tears. As for him, he had long been prepared to coldly observe this farce.
However, Bai Ying's reaction greatly surprised him. She nodded slightly, her expression revealing a hint of agreement, and said slowly, "You're right, we are indeed from two different worlds. Although I'm also puzzled as to what your master is up to, to have such a wild idea as to try and match us up. But you can rest assured, I have absolutely no interest in you, and I would never even consider marrying you."
At first glance, Bai Ying's words were exactly what Ding Yan had hoped to hear. But for some reason, when these words truly came from her mouth, an unusually subtle displeasure welled up in Ding Yan's heart.
He never expected that Bai Ying, a "country bumpkin" from the countryside, would be so direct in her actions. She rejected him cleanly with just a few words, making it seem as if he was eager to marry her, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Ding Yan clenched his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead, his face filled with shame, anger, and resentment. Just then, an extremely arrogant voice abruptly broke the surrounding silence.
"Oh, this must be the junior sister who has come all the way from Lingxiao Sect, right?" The speaker swaggered forward, his eyes darting back and forth over Bai Ying. "Junior sister, since you look down on that guy Ding Yan, why don't you come with me? I'll cherish you and treat you like a princess!" He spoke frivolously, his face radiating a self-righteous and wicked air.
Before Bai Ying could react, Ling Shuang suddenly stood up.
"Senior Brother Yao, Junior Sister Bai just arrived, and Senior Brother Ding still needs to send her to the sect."
A flicker of fear flashed in Ling Shuang's eyes. She stepped forward, grabbed Bai Ying's hand, and tried to pull her behind her. Then she transmitted her voice to Bai Ying, "Junior Sister Bai, run! This Senior Brother Yao is not someone we can afford to offend. Go to the sect quickly. Once you're there, he'll behave himself."
Ling Shuang's senior brother, Yao Yanliang, is Elder Qi Haoyuan's grand-disciple. Although he is not his disciple but a grand-disciple, Qi Haoyuan's status within the entire Lingyin Sect is too extraordinary. Therefore, even a grand-disciple has a higher status than a peak master's personal disciple.
Yao Yanliang's master was extremely protective of his own, and no matter who was right or wrong, he would always protect his good disciple.
If Yao Yanliang's master were to go and say a few more words to Elder Qi Haoyuan, it would truly be a catastrophe.
Therefore, all the disciples in the Lingxiao Sect wanted to stay as far away as possible from Elder Qi Haoyuan's lineage.
Seeing that Yao Yanliang was interested in Bai Ying, Ling Shuang quickly pulled Bai Ying behind her, wanting Bai Ying to leave first.
Unexpectedly, Yao Yanliang, upon seeing Ling Shuang's actions, also looked at Ling Shuang with a lecherous gaze.
"If Fairy Ling Shuang is willing to accompany me in her place, I cannot help but consider letting her go."
After saying that, he took out his magic array, and a net-like formation surrounded the entire restaurant.
Ling Shuang's expression changed drastically. She clenched her fingers tightly and gritted her teeth, saying, "Fine, let them go first. I'll stay here with you."
Ling Shuang's master was, after all, the master of one of the peaks in the Lingyin Sect, so Yao Yanliang wouldn't dare to act recklessly towards her. At most, he would just have a drink with her.
Ling Shuang sent a telepathic message to Ding Yan, telling him to go find her master. Then she led the others away first.
Upon seeing this, Yao Yanliang quickly walked up to Ling Shuang, grabbed her waist, and pulled her into his arms.
A flicker of disgust flashed in Ling Shuang's eyes, yet she was helpless. She could only gesture for everyone to leave quickly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Bai Ying walked directly in front of Yao Yanliang, her voice as cold as frost: "Let her go."
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
They never expected that Bai Ying would dare to speak to Yao Yanliang like that.
They're truly fearless, like newborn calves unafraid of tigers. No one in the entire Lingyin Sect would dare to speak to Elder Qi Haoyuan's lineage like that.
Even Yao Yanliang himself found it unbelievable, "What did you just say?"
Bai Ying's tone grew increasingly chilling, "I said let her go, or you're dead!"
Ling Shuang's heart tightened instantly, and her fingers clenched.
We're doomed.
Bai Ying had no idea how formidable Yao Yanliang was. He was someone she couldn't afford to offend.
Ding Yan screamed in terror:
"Quickly apologize to Junior Brother Yao! Junior Brother Yao is Elder Qi Haoyuan's grand-disciple. If you offend him, you're dead!"
