Although she couldn't defeat the mighty Demon Lord, with her current cultivation level, she could still fight to the death. Therefore, Feng Guang became unusually tough and didn't back down.
Jin Ye smiled elegantly, "This must be Junior Sister Feng Guang."
He had a handsome smile, and he knew how to use his looks to attract girls, but unfortunately, good looks don't arouse any interest in men who aren't to his liking, even if he is indeed good-looking.
“Hey, you can take medicine however you want, but you can’t say whatever you want.” Shang Baizi spoke up before Feng Guang could, tapping his fan. “Feng Guang only has me as his senior brother, so it would be more appropriate for you to call her Miss Xia.”
"The Xuanmen and Kunlun have had a friendly and mutually supportive relationship for over a hundred years. It seems there is nothing wrong with me calling her Junior Sister Fengguang."
Shang Baizi opened his fan. "Young Master Jin, you are mistaken. Even brothers should keep clear accounts. Moreover, Feng Guang is a rare genius in our Xuanmen. What if outsiders think Feng Guang is from your Kunlun Sect because of your title?"
"Young Master Shang, rest assured, I will clarify to those who have misunderstood that Junior Sister Feng Guang is not only a disciple of the Xuanmen, but if you all agree to the marriage that my master proposed, then I will also be a member of the Xuanmen."
Shang Baizi paused in her fan-waving gesture. "You're going to marry into my family?"
“Master knows that Junior Sister Fengguang is destined to become the leader of the Xuanmen Sect. In order for the Xuanmen and Kunlun Sects to form a marriage alliance, I am also willing to become the son-in-law of the Xuanmen Sect.”
When Shang Baizi saw Jin Ye's shameless words, she was speechless for a moment. The term "son-in-law who marries into the family" sounds nice, but it is actually just marrying into the family. No matter what dynasty it is, men who marry into the family are looked down upon. Moreover, it is unbelievable that such a talented young man would want to marry into the family.
This time, Shang Baizi looked at Feng Guang, wanting to see what she meant.
Feng Guang's calm expression remained unchanged as she looked at Xuan Qingzi, "Master, I would like to hear your opinion."
"Huh? What did you say?" Xuan Qingzi opened her eyes a crack, looking as if she had just woken up.
Shang Baizi turned her head away, feeling deeply ashamed.
Feng Guang said, "The Kunlun Sect wishes to propose marriage to my disciple. What does Master think?"
"Proposing marriage...that's inappropriate, inappropriate..."
Jin Ye asked, "Is there something wrong, Sect Master?"
"The time for marriage hasn't come yet..." Xuan Qingzi mumbled incoherently, as if he were just giving a perfunctory answer, yet his words were shrouded in mystery.
Feng Guang was secretly surprised. She had thought that her master would agree to the marriage as in the original story, but now it seemed that the situation was the opposite of what she had expected.
Jin Ye said unwillingly, "The sect leader thinks I am not a good match."
“A good match is preordained by heaven, and even I, an old man, cannot see it clearly…” Xuan Qingzi’s tone was wistful. He seemed to be recalling something from a long time ago, and his gaze towards Feng Guang was filled with untold melancholy and sighs.
It felt as if her master had been looking at her with such nostalgic or regretful eyes for a long time. Feng Guang couldn't understand it or figure it out, just as she didn't understand why her master would pass the position of the next sect leader to her.
She was the strongest among the disciples of this generation, but not the most suitable one.
In this world, many things began to change before the plot officially started, as if there was something strange about everything. Although you could sense it, you were even more confused.
