Jiangbei, I will definitely come again.
Because the two parties had an agreement at that time, the Xue family did not give a specific response.
Moreover, it is a foregone conclusion that Xue Yu will be promoted to Grandmaster through Jiangbei.
"If... Xiaoyu can really become Jiangbei's fiancée, isn't it reasonable for him to help Xiaoyu become a Grandmaster?"
The third son of the Xue family couldn't help but speak.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face changed.
Although what he said was indeed true, it was already for the sake of profit!
Everyone in the Xue family naturally understood this truth, and they also knew that this was the best choice.
but……
You can't do that.
Even Mr. Xue, who has been proud all his life, cannot make such a choice.
It is not something that Mr. Xue wants to force.
He shook his head silently, then raised his head to look at Xue Yu and asked, "Xiao Yu, what do you think?"
Xue Yu, who had been silent the whole time, also knew that today's discussion was ultimately about his own marriage.
That's why she was even more conflicted.
At the beginning, I went to Shanghai to look for it just because of Jiangbei’s strength.
But today, she saw a different Jiangbei.
A man of steel who values friendship and loyalty, walks towards the military headquarters with a Tang sword in hand, and is willing to pay any price for his dead comrades.
Even the powerful old man Xuanwu dared to challenge him head-on.
In fact, she had never seen such a tough character in the ancient martial arts world where strength is king.
It is only circulated in those legends that the war gods were furious... to repay the monarch's kindness and to relieve the suffering of the people.
Xue Yu thought for a long time before slowly raising his head, "I agree to cancel the engagement."
"Xiaoyu!"
"Xiao Yu, think about it again, that is..."
Everyone in the Xue family was anxious.
On one side, there is the desire to let go out of righteousness, and on the other side, there is the desire to be bound by interests.
People are always like this. When they really make a choice, they always suddenly feel that the other choice is better.
Even if it's against my will.
Because if a strong man like Jiang Bei could really become the son-in-law of the Xue family, it would be very important!
And the Xue family is in the imperial capital!
Like the Xu family, who live in Shanghai, even if they agree to withdraw their household registration, they can still have evil intentions, after all, they are close...
But if the Xue family agrees to cancel the engagement, that would be a lot of fun.
I really retreated!
Hearing this, Mr. Xue couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Xiao Yu, have you thought it through?"
"Tell Grandpa, what do you think?"
Apparently, the highly respected Mr. Xue also felt that the other option was better.
Xue Yu nodded slightly, but didn't know what to say.
After a while, she said with relief: "Jiang Bei already has a wife, and he has three fiancées. If I go there, won't I have to be fifth in line?"
After all, she is the proud daughter of the Xue family. The fact that Xue Yu is someone else's mistress is indeed a hurdle that the Xue family members cannot get over.
"and……"
"If you agree to cancel the engagement, the Xue family's efforts today would be a favor to Jiangbei."
"Even if the engagement is cancelled, the relationship between the Xue family and Jiangbei will not be severed in the future."
"If the Xue family encounters any danger in the future, we will still have a chance to ask Jiang Bei for help based on this relationship." Xue Yu said.
This analysis was something that no one in the Xue family had thought of before.
Logically speaking, it is Xue Yu who is the fiancée who has a relationship with Jiang Bei, so the people involved are probably confused.
But they are not more open-minded or clear-minded than Xue Yu.
After all, Jiang Bei has changed from a grandmaster's son-in-law to a god-transforming son-in-law... The relationship between Jiang Bei and the Xue family has affected the fate of everyone in the Xue family!
Mr. Xue was silent for a moment before he said, "If that's the case, we'll take the initiative to visit you tomorrow."
"I think Jiang Bei just had a battle with that old man Xuanwu, and he is in an extremely weak period now."
"Xue Dong, go to the clan treasury again tomorrow and prepare some gifts. We will go to the Chen family together tomorrow."
"Yes, father!"
Right at this moment.
But Mr. Xue rolled himself another cigarette with a frown on his face.
After the engagement was confirmed, the Xue family's night talk should have ended. However, Mr. Xue's behavior at this time made everyone in the Xue family nervous again.
"With the four guardians dispatched, China may be in trouble." Grandpa Xue said in a deep voice.
"What... does it mean to be guarded in all directions?" The Xue family members were puzzled.
"After I came back, I talked to Sun Chuanxiong on the phone," Mr. Xue explained.
At this time, everyone realized that after returning from the military, the old man didn't even have dinner and locked himself in the study.
"Since ancient times, China has had four guardians. Even the rulers of the world and the kings of all dynasties would not obey them."
"Unless someone wants to cut off China's foundation when the country is in ruins, they will not take action. Ah."
"Dad, are you saying that... the old man Xuanwu today is one of the four guardians?" Xue Dong's eyes narrowed.
"That's right." Mr. Xue nodded.
"I checked the family tree. The ninth generation ancestor of my Xue family has lost his name, and there is no record of his life or death. Even if he died in an accident, there shouldn't be a blank in the family tree."
This matter was not a secret in the Xue family. After all, they had to avoid the ninth generation ancestor when offering sacrifices to their ancestors.
But no one knows why.
The appearance of Xuanwu, one of the four guardians today, gave Mr. Xue a reminder.
So after he came back, he looked through a lot of ancient books and even called the Sun family.
Coincidentally.
The same situation happened to the 33rd generation ancestor of the Sun family!
Today's Sun Chuanxiong is the 39th generation descendant of the Sun family, and that old ancestor only lived six generations ago.
In other words, it is less than two hundred years away from today!
Everything is still remembered!
"The name of that ancestor was erased. I don't know if it was his own doing, but his strength is the most powerful in the Sun family in the past few hundred years."
"It is said that the ancestor became a Grand Master at the age of forty and inherited the position of Patriarch of the Sun Family. However, just ten years later... he disappeared inexplicably."
"No one knows where the ancestor went, but when he left, all written records related to him in the family were erased, including the family tree. It was as if he suddenly disappeared from this world."
"This is also the biggest secret of the Sun family throughout the generations..."
Sun Chuanxiong said so.
After ending the call.
Mr. Xue began to search in ancient books again. Although there were very few records on this subject, he could only make inferences based on a few words.
But it also led him to a seemingly outrageous conclusion.
Old Master Xue was silent for a long time before he said, "If things go as expected, the ancestors of my Xue family and the ancestors of the Sun family who disappeared back then will all become one of the four guardians of China."
"But I can't figure out why the Four Guardians, who have hardly appeared in the past thousand years, suddenly appeared today?"
"And his goal was just to protect the sixteen men who were doomed to die in the military? If that was Xuanwu's mission, how could he have taken up Jiangbei's Tang sword out of impulse?"
"I'm afraid the world is going to change." Mr. Xue said in a deep voice.
