Bi Min shook her head at Bi Jue and said with a faint smile:
“Father, I have been living a life of hiding for a hundred years since I left the Dragon Realm. I came here more than ten years ago and happened to encounter a stillborn child. I couldn’t bear it, so I possessed her body. I thought that since she and I were destined to be together, I wanted to spend a hundred years in this world in her identity, so that I could fulfill my filial duty.”
This is how she came to be Bi Jue's daughter.
It turns out that the sect leader's wife was stillborn...
Bi Jue smiled wryly:
"Min'er, I don't care about any of this. I truly consider you my own child..."
Bi Min nodded and said:
"I know."
She paused for a moment, then continued:
"Now, I have been with you for eighteen years. Even my marriage was not my wish."
“That day… I overheard your conversation and knew you disagreed with the marriage alliance, but for the sake of Emperor Daoguang, I am willing…”
"That's why I explained to you that I already have someone I love, which led to this whole situation today..."
As she spoke, she looked apologetically at the ground, at the groom who had fainted the moment she revealed her dragon horns.
They had never met before, but were forced to come together by a marriage alliance.
This is the world...
Profit comes first.
She only agreed to marry because she didn't want to trouble her father, thinking that this way, her father wouldn't feel guilty...
But now, the truth must finally be revealed...
So be it, they will never see each other again after today...
For a moment, Bi Min was at a loss for words.
Bi Jue looked at her sadly and said with heartache:
“Min’er, since you’re not doing this willingly, why don’t you tell me… You know, your father won’t let you get married unless you want to…”
“Father…I know you’ve always been like this to me, spoiling me from childhood to adulthood. Whatever I wanted, you would find it for me. These past eighteen years have been the happiest time of my life…”
Bi Jue interrupted her, saying urgently:
"Min'er, you really don't have to wrong yourself... Please stay, okay? Father will protect you!"
...
While Bi Jue and Bi Min were still talking, the members of the Imperial Sword Sect and the Armored Sect were displeased.
"Hey, are you done talking? I've been letting you talk for so long so you can say goodbye. Hurry up, it's time to go."
The elder of the Imperial Sword Sect spoke up somewhat impatiently.
If the Dragon Girl hadn't left voluntarily, they wouldn't have let the two of them talk for so long...
Bi Min glanced over there, gave Bi Jue a hug, turned to look at the crowd, and sneered:
Do you really believe they will give you the dragon vein?
"Of course, the Dragon Mother said that as long as we take you back to the Dragon Realm, she will tell us the whereabouts of the Dragon Vein. So, hurry up and come with us."
Bi Min gave a mocking smile, but didn't say anything more.
It can only be said that they really overestimated the dragon lineage...
If the Dragon Realm were truly that wonderful, she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to escape that place in the first place...
What a bunch of people blinded by greed...
"Alright, it's getting late, let's go."
The elder of the Imperial Sword Sect urged again.
Bi Min looked back at Bi Jue several times with some reluctance before slowly walking towards the crowd.
"Father, I'm leaving."
"Min'er..."
Before Bi Jue could say anything more, Bi Min gave him a few hand gestures.
Those were the gestures he taught her when she was a child, and only the two of them knew the meaning behind them.
Bi Jue finally nodded and stopped talking, letting the others take her away.
The elder of the Imperial Sword Sect was momentarily puzzled when he saw that Bi Jue did not stop him again.
However, considering that the Dragon Girl was already with them, and Bi Jue's reaction was no longer their concern, they ignored Bi Jue and led everyone away...
...
After they left, a deep look appeared in Bi Jue's eyes. He went back into the house, wrote two secret letters, handed them to Bi Hui, and instructed him:
"Deliver this letter to both the Imperial Sword Sect and the Armor Guard Sect, and remember to personally hand it to their sect leaders. This matter is of great importance; please ensure they come here for a discussion..."
Bi Hui took the secret letter, asked no questions, and went straight out to deliver it.
Upon seeing that a major sect had actually sent its vice sect leader to deliver a message, the sect leaders of the Imperial Sword Sect and the Armored Armor Sect naturally knew the seriousness of the situation and immediately joined forces with Bi Jue.
The three sat down at the table, and Bi Jue personally poured tea, his expression somewhat serious.
Li Feng, the sect leader of the Imperial Sword Sect, was the first to speak and ask:
"Old Bi, what important matter do you wish to discuss with us?"
This is the first time that the leaders of the three major sects have gathered together.
He couldn't help but wonder about the reason behind it.
What could be so important that Bi Jue was in such a hurry to summon them, even resorting to a secret letter, and not even revealing their whereabouts...?
"Yes, Lao Bi, isn't today your daughter's wedding day? Are you angry because we had to go out today and couldn't attend the banquet?"
The sect leader of the Armor Guardian Sect chuckled as he approached the mountain.
Bi Jue sighed and recounted everything that had happened during the day.
...
"What? You're saying Minmin is a dragon girl?"
"Were they taken away by Xingtai?"
"Qiu Wen was involved too?"
Xingtai is an elder of the Imperial Sword Sect.
Qiu Wen, on the other hand, is the nephew of the leader of the Armor Guard Sect.
Li Feng and Xiang Shan were shocked to hear that the two sects had taken Bi Min away so easily.
Bi Jue nodded and sighed:
"They are so captivated by the dragon vein that they are completely unaware of the dangers it conceals. This trip will likely be..."
Li Feng and Xiang Shang exchanged a glance, both agreeing with Bi Jue's reasoning.
