If Yun Huayin was here, she would definitely recognize at a glance that this father and son were two members of the J-country team - Fujiwara Yuto and his son Fujiwara Shugo. Yun Huayin had recently gotten a lot of good things from the Fujiwara family.
Originally, the head of the Fujiwara clan wasn't Fujiwara Hiroto, but his eldest brother. However, his eldest brother died ten years ago, and his direct descendants were killed in a chain reaction caused by oil tankers. This allowed Fujiwara Hiroto to ascend to the throne. Although Fujiwara Hiroto presented numerous pieces of evidence to disprove the accidents, rumors of their illegitimate rise to power have persisted over the years.
Fujiwara Yuto was determined to increase their influence within the clan and solidify their position. How could they possibly give up the power they had so hard-earned? Collaborating with the Thunder God was their first step, and it certainly strengthened the clan's trust.
The second step is the marriage of Fujiwara no Shuugo. Fujiwara no Shuugo is 26 years old this year, but he has not yet been engaged because they want to use the marriage to increase their power.
It’s just that none of the legitimate daughters of other Onmyoji families are of the right age... and they don’t like those of lower status, so they have been so picky until now.
Originally, they would not have thought of targeting foreigners, especially people from Country Z... But after Shi Miao suddenly appeared, they felt more and more that Shi Miao was the right person. If they missed him, they would regret it for the rest of their lives.
The other party is the leader of the Z Country Xuanmen, and is very powerful... As for the Z Country officials, if they return all the antiques and cultural relics that the Fujiwara family previously obtained from Z Country as a betrothal gift, they should not object, right? The Fujiwara family is one of the most powerful families, and their accumulation in this area is even greater than that of many major museums in Z Country.
If they could marry Shi Miao, they would not only have a powerful helper, but in addition to Yin-Yang magic, they would also be able to learn the top Taoist magic of Country Z.
Shi Miao has such good talents, the children she gives birth to will definitely not be bad.
The Fujiwara father and son quickly reached a consensus on this. Fujiwara Yuto was very confident in his son. His son was handsome, gentle and considerate, and he was also the future head of the Fujiwara family. As long as he put his heart into it, he was not afraid that Shi Miao would not be tempted. No matter how capable Shi Miao was, she was still a young girl in her twenties who had not yet graduated. It was obvious that she had not had much experience in relationships.
Women are always easily blinded by love and can do anything for love.
Of course, because Shi Miao was a top-tier master of metaphysics, her family had to show sincerity and unwavering devotion to her. Although Fujiwara Shugo was unmarried, he had no shortage of mistresses. He planned to feign love at first sight upon meeting Shi Miao and send all of them away. Few young women could resist the affection of a highly sought-after man, who, for her sake, would turn from his evil ways to the right path, never to see another woman again.
If Fujiwara Shugo had been a bit reluctant at first, that reluctance vanished immediately after he saw Shi Miao. Shi Miao was even more beautiful in person than she appeared on TV; the image he had seen wasn't even a third of her real beauty. Her aloof and independent aura, in particular, could easily evoke a man's deep desire for conquest.
A determined light flashed in Fujiwara Shugo's eyes. They had inquired and found that the man closest to Shi Miao was only Ji Jingyao.
Ji Jingyao's looks and family background were indeed comparable to his, but he was just an ordinary man, unworthy of even attending an event like today. Shi Miao certainly wouldn't be so foolish as to choose an ordinary man as her future husband. She had to consider her descendants.
After discussing for a while, the Fujiwara father and son decided to go downstairs and act out their love at first sight.
Fujiwara Shugo felt that this was not difficult. It was easy to fall in love with Shi Miao's face at first sight.
But by the time they went downstairs, Shi Miao and his group had already drawn lots to choose the building they would live in.
Perhaps to maintain privacy, teams from each country lived in different buildings, with the building numbers chosen by drawing lots.
The participants were all masters of metaphysics, so the organizers didn't dare tamper with the drawing of lots. Shi Miao didn't care where she lived, so she asked Xuan Lou to draw the lot. Xuan Lou drew number six, which happened to be the farthest away from Country J.
Jiao Mao, the head of Hunyuan Sect, asked: "Do we want to take a look at this island in the next two days?" There are still two days before the official competition, otherwise why would they come here in advance.
As for the competition venue, it had long been fenced off, and no participating countries were allowed to enter. They looked around, wondering if they could deduce something from the surroundings.
Shi Miao was indifferent to this and said, "If you want to go, you can go and have a look."
Regardless of the venue, the outcome won't change. Losing is impossible.
She quickly returned to her room, as there were enough rooms in the building for Shi Miao to have one to herself. She placed a barrier around the building, so anyone with ill intentions would be struck by lightning if they entered.
Cheng Zhiming happily helped her pack her things, under the pretext of showing respect to her as his master.
Shi Miao only brought the Yunhua Seal with him this time—Jie Gou was currently traveling the globe, gathering faith. As for Bai Long, he remained with Zuo Baozhu. She was the weakest of Shi Miao's disciples. Zuo Baozhu was now the crown jewel of the archaeological team, and countless teams were eager to borrow her.
Shi Miao guessed that she would soon be borrowed by the scientific research team.
Shi Miao slowly flipped through a book. Cheng Zhiming glanced at the cover—"Where's the Savage Sweetheart Going!"—and was immediately shocked. He felt like breathing in air.
Wait, when did Master start reading this kind of novel?
