With a swift movement, Gao Yan landed beside Xiahou Meng, reaching out to embrace her, but she dodged away and scolded, "Don't touch me!"
"Listen to me, you should know that I was able to become a Holy Son because of the Xiao family and three other people. Now the Xiao family is arranging for their eldest daughter to marry me because they see my potential and want to win me over further. Besides, this matter was proposed by my master, so I simply cannot refuse!"
Although Xiahou Meng could understand Gao Yan's situation, she still felt uncomfortable.
"If you're willing to marry me, I'll immediately break off my engagement with the Xiao family!"
Seeing that Xiahou Meng was still not satisfied, Gao Yan decided to use a desperate measure. He would make one condition: ask the founding patriarch of the sect to help him solve this problem!
"Are you willing to do that?"
Hearing that Gao Yan was willing to break off the engagement for her, Xiahou Meng's anger subsided considerably. However, out of pride, she couldn't immediately say that she forgave him!
"What's there to be reluctant about? After all, you are my true love!" Gao Yan reached out again, and this time Xiahou Meng did not resist, letting him pull her into his arms.
"You talk a good game, but I can't marry you!" Xiahou Meng said quietly. The Xiahou family is currently in a state of opposition with the other four families.
Gao Yan was someone that the four families jointly put forward to compete with the Xiahou family.
If she were to propose to marry Gao Yan, she would definitely face strong opposition from the Xiahou family.
Of course, this was just her opinion.
If she really brings it up, Patriarch Xiahou will most likely agree to the marriage, since Patriarch Xiahou knows that he possesses the Imperial Scripture.
His future achievements will definitely not stop at the Dao Integration stage; he may even become the tenth Saint Realm expert of the Nine Saints Sect.
"Honey, to make it up to you, I have a gift for you!"
The next moment, Gao Yan flipped his hand, and a long sword appeared, which was the low-grade holy weapon he had won through a luxurious lottery.
"A sacred weapon!"
Xiahou Meng was startled, then looked at Gao Yan with gratitude: "Why did you give me such an expensive gift!"
"You're my precious baby, who else would I give this to if not you!"
His words were profound and heartfelt.
"Forget it, I don't want it. You can keep it for yourself!" Although Xiahou Meng was very tempted by this low-grade holy weapon, she still chose to refuse.
"Don't worry, I have no shortage of holy weapons. This holy weapon was specially prepared for you!" Gao Yan said.
"real!"
"Take it quickly!"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
"Do we still need to be polite with each other?"
The next moment, Xiahou Meng offered a kiss, and Gao Yan pulled her tightly into his arms, as if he wanted to meld her into his body.
Suddenly, a thunderbolt struck from the sky, and a great war without gunpowder was about to begin.
Just as Gao Yan and Xiahou Meng were being affectionate.
In the Black Dragon Mountains, 30,000 miles away from the Nine Saints Sect, two outer disciples of the Nine Saints Sect at the seventh level of Qi Refining are frantically fleeing for their lives.
Behind them.
A man in black robes followed leisurely, a cruel smile on his face.
Although Xiahou Meng has already forgiven Gao Yan.
But he still spent two days comforting her.
unconsciously.
More than a month has passed, and Gao Yan's wedding date is getting closer and closer.
That day, Gao Yan was lying in the garden sunbathing!
Suddenly, Qin Xiangxue arrived.
"Your Highness, I have received news that outer sect disciples have been dying frequently recently. It seems that someone is deliberately targeting our Nine Saints Sect!"
"Oh, how many died?"
Gao Yan asked.
"According to statistics from the outer sect, more than 30,000 outer sect disciples have died in the past month or so while they were out on missions. Now the outer sect is in a state of panic, and the mission hall has been paralyzed!"
"What? So many people have died?"
Gao Yan sat up. Although there were over a million outer disciples, more than 30,000 was no small number.
"What about the inner sect? Have any inner sect disciples died?"
Not yet!
Qin Xiangxue shook her head.
"Okay, I understand. I'll keep an eye on this!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After Qin Xiangxue left, Gao Yan began to ponder: who exactly was targeting the Nine Saints Sect?
Even if we want to deal with the Nine Saints Sect, what's the point of just killing the outer disciples?
Could it be the Xuanming Sect?
He still thought it was impossible. It was true that the Xuanming Sect and the Nine Saints Sect had a feud, but they didn't specifically target the outer disciples!
Thinking about this...
Gao Yan began reading the memories of the rogue cultivator's soul seed, and then read the memories of the puppets he had placed in the Eastern Wilderness.
However, there was nothing unusual in their memory.
In the blink of an eye, several more days have passed.
Qin Xiangxue came to report another matter to Gao Yan.
However, the sect specially dispatched several teams of true disciples to follow the outer disciples who were on missions.
As a result, all the disciples in these special training teams, along with the outer disciples who were on the mission, were killed.
It should be noted that these teams of true disciples are all led by Nascent Soul cultivators.
"This is not a simple matter!"
Gao Yan's heart sank.
That evening.
Gao Yan was then notified to go to the Sacred Heart Hall, the main hall of the sect, for a meeting.
So Gao Yan immediately rushed over.
Upon discovering that Xiahou Jian had arrived first, he greeted him and waited patiently inside the hall. Soon after, Xiahou Meng, Nangong Yao, Zhao Longya, Zhang Tianfan, and Zhang Youyou arrived one after another.
As for Long Xiaoyu, this holy son, he was unlucky and perished in the Emperor's Tomb last time.
After a while.
Sect Master Shangguan Shang arrived with two Vice Sect Masters.
The two vice sect leaders were far behind Shangguan Shang in cultivation level, one at the seventh level of the Void Realm and the other at the eighth level, not even as strong as Gao Yan.
