With everything settled, Lin Yu returned to the valley with Murong Cheng and his daughter.
Murong Cheng's safe return is naturally a great joy for Juechen Valley!
Of course, the person we should thank the most is Lin Yu, the painting master!
Therefore, Murong Cheng decided to host a banquet for Lin Yu!
At this moment, in a quaint study.
Murong Cheng was telling his daughter about his recent experiences.
Having finally reunited, they naturally had a lot to say.
"Dad, I really thought you wouldn't wake up! If it weren't for Brother Lin, I would have given up hope!" Murong Qing said with red eyes.
Murong Cheng nodded and sighed, "Yes! This was really a close call! We really have to thank Lin Huasheng!"
"This Lin the Painting Master is truly remarkable. At such a young age, his character and abilities have impressed me greatly!"
Murong Cheng praised him, then couldn't help but ask, "Daughter, what is your impression of Lin the Painting Master?"
"Him?" Murong Qing's pretty face flushed red, and she said shyly, "I think he's alright!"
Murong Cheng smiled knowingly. No one knows a daughter better than her father. If his daughter said this, she must have fallen for Lin Huasheng at first sight.
However, he was quite satisfied with the young man.
He thought for a moment and said, "Daughter, if you are interested in him, how about Dad plays matchmaker for you?"
Murong Qing was slightly taken aback, then a shy expression appeared on her face as she hesitated and said, "But... but is he willing to stay in Juechen Valley? According to the rules of Juechen Valley, once someone becomes a son-in-law of Juechen Valley, he cannot leave Juechen Valley!"
Why wouldn't you want to?
Murong Cheng said confidently, "My Juechen Valley has everything you could want. Whatever is outside, we have in our valley, and what we have in our valley, we may not have outside! Why wouldn't he want such a comfortable and extravagant life?"
"Men only care about a few things. My daughter is so outstanding, I will definitely keep him here!" Murong Cheng said with a confident smile.
Murong Qing also felt that her father's words made a lot of sense, so she nodded shyly, "Okay, then I'll listen to Dad and do as you say!"
Murong Cheng laughed loudly, clapped his hands, and said, "Alright, then I'll propose to him publicly at the banquet later!"
...
Soon, the banquet was ready!
Murong Cheng attached great importance to this and made very grand arrangements!
During the banquet, he frequently toasted Lin Yu, and the two drank to their hearts' content.
In the midst of the lively atmosphere, Murong Cheng raised his glass, "Since we're having such a good time today, Master Lin, I have a suggestion. I wonder if you'd agree?"
Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, and asked curiously, "Valley Master, please speak!"
Murong Cheng glanced at his daughter and said with a smile, "I, Murong Cheng, have been in charge of Juechen Valley for decades. Although I am insignificant in the martial arts world of the north, I live in Juechen Valley and do not need to be concerned about anyone's feelings! This small valley is like a paradise, without martial arts disputes, without grudges and affections, only fine wine and beautiful women, only romance and beauty, leisurely and carefree!"
"Juechen Valley is indeed a good place!" Lin Yu nodded, admitting it undeniably.
This secluded valley, far removed from the secular world, can be considered a paradise on earth.
You can tell from Murong Qing's daily life that she is unhurried and nonchalant, yet she exudes a clean and independent aura.
This kind of aura is simply unseen in the chaotic material society outside.
Murong Cheng nodded with a smile, "Since the Sage of Painting Lin also thinks this is a good place, why not stay? You are a Sage of Painting, so you probably don't like those worldly things! Stay here and be a carefree immortal who enjoys poetry and painting. When you have nothing to do, play a game of chess with me, enjoy fine wine and delicacies, admire the most beautiful scenery, and lie drunk on the lap of a beauty. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
As Murong Cheng spoke, he glanced at his daughter, Murong Qing.
Murong Qing blushed slightly and quickly lowered her head, looking very embarrassed.
Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly understood.
Good heavens, Murong Cheng is planning to keep me as a live-in son-in-law!
I must say, this idea is actually pretty good!
Life here reminded him of Dragon Phoenix Island, where life was indeed carefree.
Being with your loved one in this paradise, living a life of one love and devotion, is truly a beautiful thing!
But the problem is, the person I love is in Fengtian!
Although Murong Qing was quite nice, she paled in comparison to his beloved wife, Xue Qing.
Because Xueqing, his wife, is the person he loves most.
So he immediately declined Murong Cheng's invitation, saying with a smile, "I'm sorry, Valley Master Murong, Juechen Valley is very nice, but I have my own responsibilities and cannot stay here to play chess with you!"
Murong Cheng was slightly taken aback, never expecting him to refuse.
After all, there are countless people from the south and the north who want to become their son-in-law.
This was the first time he had ever invited someone out, and to his surprise, he was rejected.
Before he could even speak, Murong Qing couldn't hold back any longer. She stood up abruptly and said, "Brother Lin, is it because I'm not good enough? Why won't you stay for me?"
Although Murong Qing had never left Juechen Valley, she was still very confident in her beauty, believing that she was no less beautiful than the female celebrities outside.
She couldn't understand why Lin Yu would refuse!
Lin Yu looked embarrassed and said, "Miss Murong, you are very kind, but to be honest, I am already a married man. I cannot abandon my wife and stay here to enjoy myself alone. I hope you and your father can understand!"
"What? You're already married?" Murong Qing was slightly taken aback, and her fists clenched involuntarily.
Murong Cheng replied, "Oh, what's this! Lin Huasheng, all the women outside are just ordinary beauties, how can they compare to my daughter! How about this, if you stay, I can promise you that I will give you my entire Juechen Valley as your dowry, what do you think?"
