Chapter 981 Engagement and Jealousy



The Xiao Family's Secret Realm.

Inside a mansion.

"Sister Yanran, are you really going to this blind date?"

Xiao Lingxin felt sorry for her cousin. It was called a matchmaking event, but it was actually a concubine selection event.

Although Gao Yan is a Holy Son, he is only a newly promoted one. My cousin is also an outstanding figure among the direct descendants of the Xiao family in this generation.

To attend that "blind date event" would be to lower one's status and humiliate oneself.

"It's a family arrangement; I can't refuse!"

Xiao Yanran said calmly that if her family had made this arrangement before she entered the Emperor's Tomb, she would definitely have resisted it.

But she saw Gao Yan's behavior inside the imperial tomb.

Moreover, the head of the family revealed to her that it was the patriarch's arrangement for her to attend the matchmaking event.

This inevitably led her to make certain associations.

The elders generally don't concern themselves with family affairs, let alone the marriages of the younger generation.

But the fact that the patriarch intervened this time shows that the patriarch values ​​Gao Yan even more than imagined.

Why would the patriarch value a pawn that was pushed out by the Xiao family and the other three families?

Isn't this something worth pondering?

Therefore, she suspected that Gao Yan had chosen a Saint-level high-grade cultivation technique, or even an Imperial Scripture, in the final stage of the Imperial Tomb's Stele Forest.

Gao Yannian is not even a hundred years old, but his cultivation has already reached the third level of the Nascent Soul stage!

This talent surpasses even that of the traitors from three thousand years ago. He has also obtained a Saint-level cultivation technique or an Emperor-level scripture inheritance. As long as he doesn't perish along the way, he might become a Saint-level expert in the future.

It will be too late to curry favor with Gao Yan once he has reached sainthood.

Therefore, Xiao Yanran suspected that the old ancestor arranged for her to go on a blind date in order to deepen the relationship between the Xiao family and Gao Yan. Otherwise, it would have been enough to just arrange for any legitimate daughter to marry him.

Why arrange such a blind date!

Clearly, the patriarch values ​​Gao Yan highly and doesn't want to antagonize him!

"Sister Yanran, if you are unwilling, I will ask the family head to rescind this order!" Xiao Lingxin said enthusiastically.

"No!"

Xiao Yanran waved her hand: "Our family has nurtured us, so it's nothing to give back a little. Besides, Junior Brother Gao Yan might not even choose me!"

"Hmph, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't agree. What right does that Gao Yan have!" Xiao Lingxin sneered.

"Silly little sister!"

Seeing Xiao Lingxin's appearance, Xiao Yanran sighed inwardly. She had already inquired and found out that there were 12 people who were going on blind dates with her junior brother Gao this time.

Eight of these twelve women, including herself, are outstanding legitimate daughters of the Xiao family. The other four, though not famous, are female geniuses secretly cultivated by the Xiao family.

These female geniuses are not only outstanding in cultivation, but also in appearance and temperament. They are all genius girls specially collected by the Xiao family from outside, to be used as Daoist partners for the future high-ranking members of the Xiao family!

Although these female geniuses do not have the bloodline of the Xiao family, they have been secretly trained by the Xiao family since childhood and are extremely loyal to the Xiao family.

Clearly, the Xiao family put these four people in there in order to win over Gao Yan!

And she knew it too.

Of the other seven female members of the direct line who attended the matchmaking event with her, five were resistant, but the head of the family gave an ironclad order, so they had no choice but to obey.

The next day.

Gao Yan brought Qin Xiangxue to the Xiao family's secret realm.

Although the head of the Xiao family did not appear in person, he sent a Dao Integration Realm expert to greet him, which can be said to have given Gao Yan a lot of face.

Subsequently, under the arrangement of the Xiao family, Gao Yan entered a very large garden.

The twelve legitimate daughters arranged by the Xiao family were also scattered in different places in the garden.

After all, the Xiao family also cares about their reputation. If they arranged for 12 people to meet with him together, it would seem too snobbish.

However, Gao Yan felt that their arrangement was somewhat like burying one's head in the sand.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Gao Yan locked onto the locations of the twelve legitimate daughters of the Xiao family. He wasn't in a hurry to meet them, but instead used his Insight Eye to learn about them first!

When Gao Yan discovered that Xiao Yanran was also among them, he was somewhat surprised. The Xiao family had really gone all out this time, as Xiao Yanran possessed the talent to achieve the Dao Integration Realm.

If the Xiao family hadn't been barred from participating in the selection of the Holy Son, Xiao Yanran would definitely have been one of the Holy Maidens, and one who could rival Xiahou Jian.

What surprised Gao Yan even more was that Xiao Yanran had the highest level of friendliness towards him, reaching exactly 80 points.

As for the other five girlfriends, their favorability ratings are negative, but the negative numbers are not high, only showing slight dislike and aversion. Most likely, they don't know the true purpose of this blind date and don't understand him either.

The remaining six women all had positive friendship levels, but they weren't high either, with the highest only reaching 60 points.

Put away your insightful eyes.

Gao Yan headed straight for the pavilion where Xiao Yanran was!

At this moment, Xiao Yanran is brewing tea in the pavilion.

"Junior brother has arrived, please have a seat!"

Xiao Yanran said with a smile.

"Senior Sister Yanran, we meet again! You've become more and more beautiful!"

Gao Yan said with a smile.

"Junior brother, you flatter me!"

Xiao Yanran said with a hint of shyness that she was quite happy that Gao Yan was the first to come and see her.

Next, the two drank tea and chatted together.

Before you know it, an hour has passed.

Xiao Yanran urged, "Junior Brother Gao, there are eleven sisters waiting for you. Don't linger here too long!"

"No need!"

Gao Yan waved his hand: "It's enough that I've met Senior Sister!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yanran blushed. How could she not understand what Gao Yan meant? He had taken a liking to her and was unwilling to see the other eleven women.
