ises to exist.""Don't worry, boss. I'll definitely satisfy you.""You imbecile, I don't want empty promises, I want results! ""Get to work right now! Don't forget who gave you all this. If you can't sa...Yuan Mu Tong immediately shouted: "Bulls***, what kind of rule is this They joined the Han Jian Xian Zong, they didn't sell themselves, why should they cut off everything"
"Alright, both of you grand stewards, have some tea and calm down!"
Liu Yibai stood up and stepped forward to mediate. At this moment, she was beaming with a spring in her step. With the two families fighting, she had complete control of the situation.
At this moment, Sima Wang spoke up. He bowed slightly, appearing courteous and polite.
"Master Liu, some time ago I had the honor of meeting Fairy Hanjian. Since then, I have been deeply impressed and can't help but think about her. Today, I specially came to propose marriage."
Yuanmu Tong said dissatisfiedly, "Kid, what a fart about being close to her, that's Ye Yixian's woman!"
Liu Baiyi smiled faintly: "It's fortunate for my Hanshan Sword Sect that both of you gentlemen have taken a liking to Qingqiu."
"Why don't we do this You two compete fairly. When the time comes, I will see which young master is more sincere, and then I will betrothal my apprentice to whichever one."
This woman is a true master manipulator. She easily took control of the situation, making it seem like a fair competition between the two while subtly emphasizing her ultimate authority.
Ye Bufan's heart was filled with immense anger, but in this world where strength reigned supreme, there was no voice without absolute power.
If he were at the tribulation period cultivation level now, he could immediately take away Leng Qingqiu. The Cold Sword Immortal Sect wouldn't even dare to let out a single fart.
Now, relying on brute force is not feasible; one lacks both cultivation and background.
They are core disciples of Tai Xu Palace, while I am just an outsider with a token from Xuan Tian Gate.
A person under someone's eaves has to bow their head. They can only reluctantly make do for now and then slowly find a way out.
After Liu Baiyi finished speaking, Sima Wang's face showed a trace of disdain.
"Fair competition That goes without saying!"
I am a core disciple of Shengmen Taixu Palace. What about him My teacher is an elder who enforces the law and is a powerful cultivator in the tribulation period. Who is his master
I've already reached the peak of Mahayana at fifty, how can his cultivation compare to mine
To have no identity, no status, no background, and no cultivation base... This kind of person dares to compete with me It's simply a joke!
"Hmph, what a shameless fool. If you can't compare to Big Brother Ye, it's you who falls short."
Jiang Fangzhou is the kind of die-hard fan who immediately jumped to Ye Bufan's defense when someone spoke ill of him.
"I, Ye Gege, am a medical immortal. There is no illness in the world that I cannot cure. Can you"
My older brother Ye is still the most outstanding alchemist, even able to refine ninth-rank pills. Can you
My brother Ye just won first place in the Genius Demon Competition, unprecedentedly reaching the tenth floor of the Heavenly Tower. Can you
"My older brother Ye just killed a late stage cultivator when he was twenty. Can you do that at your age"
"I..."
As the core disciple of the Shengmen, Sima Wang has always been arrogant and looked down upon others, never placing anyone else in his eyes.
That's why he just spouted nonsense, but didn't expect this young man to be so outstanding.
Whether a doctor or an alchemist, to reach such a high level, would be highly regarded in any sect, the Holy Sect no exception.
Although his cultivation level is not as high as mine, he is only twenty years old, less than half my age.
At this point, one could slay a late stage Mahayana cultivator. Once he reaches fifty, what kind of achievements he would attain is simply unimaginable.
Not only was he startled, but even Dan Pingxin beside him was taken aback and couldn't help but give the young man in front of them a few more glances.
Liu Baiyi secretly sighed. She had heard that this young man was extraordinary before, but she didn't expect him to be so extraordinary. No wonder he was so valued by Xuan Tianmen.
But she had already learned the details from Li Miaozhen. Ye Bufan came from the mortal world, and once he took Cold Autumn away, he would return to the mortal world as well.
If it cannot be used by the sect, then even if it is extremely powerful, it is still useless.
At this, Sima Wang came to his senses and let out a cold snort, once again adopting an air of disdain.
"Engagement is not really about the individual, it's more about how much sincerity you can show."
As he spoke, his wrist flipped, and a piece of paper appeared in his palm.
"Master Liu, this is the dowry list I have prepared. Please take a look."
"The young master Sima is thoughtful."
Liu Baiyi took the piece of paper into his hand. Upon seeing the content, he burst into a wide grin and beckoned over a female disciple, "Read this to everyone!"
"Yes!"
The female disciple took the paper list and began to read aloud in a loud voice.
"10,000 top-grade spirit stones, one millennium blood jade lingzhi, one jar of 10,000-year-old stone stalagmite essence..."
As she read out each item on the gift list, the expressions of those present changed.
As expected of the Sacred Gate, this list of gifts is definitely not something an ordinary person could obtain. Besides spirit medicine, there are also spirit treasures. Even if an ordinary person had money, they couldn't buy them.
Ye Bufan also frowned slightly. He had a lot of good things on him, but apart from those artifacts, he was still far behind Sima Wang.
Not to mention anything else, just these ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones he couldn't take out. The wealth of the Holy Gate far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.
To know that the previous Holy Dragon Empire was also powerful and wealthy, but even if it emptied its treasury, it wouldn't have up to two hundred top-grade spirit stones. Compared to the Holy Gate, it was simply a pauper.
Sima Wang's lips curled into a satisfied smirk, clearly pleased with everyone's reaction.
After the proclamation was finished, he said: "Well, are you going to try and compete with me As long as your dowry surpasses mine, I, Sima Wang, will immediately turn around and leave."
Yuan Mu Tong shouted, "Bullsh*t! He's here to pick up his wife. What business is it of yours to compare betrothal gifts with him!"
Shan Pingxin coldly smiled: "How can you want to marry someone's female disciple without even wanting to offer a dowry What kind of logic is that"
"You're all too poor, you can't even afford a decent dowry! If that's the case, get lost and don't embarrass yourselves here!"
"You..."
Yuan Mu Tong didn't need to ask to know that Ye Bufan couldn't come up with such a generous gift list, after all, the strength of the Holy Gate was not something ordinary people could compare to.
The Xuan Tian Men sect was quite wealthy, but unfortunately, he couldn't take those possessions with him, nor could he freely control them. Besides, there wasn't much time anyway.
Just as he was about to launch a forceful attack, a dismissive sneer suddenly came from the doorway.
"Who said that Our list of gifts will blind your dogs' eyes."
Everyone was startled and looked up at the same time. To their surprise, an extremely sleazy-looking old man had appeared at the entrance of the hall at some point.
Ye Bufan was stunned. Of course, he recognized this old man; it was Xuanyuan Zhantian who had just left. He didn't expect to meet him so soon again.
This old geezer is always popping up in unexpected places, how did he end up at the Cold Sword Immortal Sect
"Well, little one, are you happy to see me Excited"
Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian, while speaking, took out a pig's trotter and started gnawing on it. Then, he strode into the hall and sat down next to Ye Bu Fan.
"Old man, what are you doing here"
Ye Bufan asked in a low voice.
"How could I not be here I, an elder of ages, know five hundred years before and five hundred years after. I knew you needed me now, so I came."
Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian let out a "hehe" smile, and casually pulled out another bottle of Wuliangye, gulping it down in one go.
Liu Baiyi frowned. She couldn't see through the other person's depth at all, but one thing was certain: being able to enter the Hanjian Xianzong silently was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Senior, may I ask your name What brings you to the Cold Sword Immortal Sect"he reached for a dagger at his waist, grinning menacingly as he approached the two people."Now, young masters, I give you two choices. First, sign this document and sell your shares in the investment...
