"Well, I hope you have the strength!" Ning Shangling nodded slightly, then turned around and left. Ning Xuefei took a deep look at Lin Yi, then followed her mother.
Lin Yi rubbed his head strangely. "What did she mean by having the strength?" Somehow, he always felt that Ning Xuefei's eyes were a little strange, and he didn't know what they wanted to express.
Ning Shangling and Ning Xuefei left, but Shanghai Laner and Han Jingjing stayed. Compared with following Ning Shangling to toast everywhere, they preferred to stay with Lin Yi, which was much more comfortable.
"Do you two feel that Feifei's expression is a little strange?" Lin Yi couldn't help asking. Shanghai Laner and Han Jingjing had been staying with Ning Xuefei all the time, so they should know some inside information.
"Strange? No! " The two women responded in unison. After being stunned for a while, Han Jingjing said thoughtfully, "But really, I think Feifei seems to have something on her mind, but she just doesn't want to tell us …"
"She has always been like this. She looks careless, but if something really happens, she will always handle it by herself, and will never take the initiative to tell us. I'm used to it." Shanghai Laner shook her head helplessly.
Careless? Lin Yi couldn't help glancing at Shanghai Laner. It seemed that she was the only one who could be described as this. Although Ning Xuefei's status was similar to hers, their situations were actually quite different.
Shanghai Laner was the apple of Shanghai Tianhua's eye. She had never felt any pressure since she was a child, and she had never said that she wanted to take over Soaring Pavilion. Besides, it was difficult for a woman to do that in the north island, so she was so carefree.
But Ning Xuefei was different. Although her character was similar to Shanghai Laner's, she was the future heir of West Island. It was absolutely deceiving herself to say that she had no pressure. No matter how tolerant Ning Shangling was to her, she would never relax her comprehensive training. The princess of West Island, who was raised in this kind of environment, must be a very persevering existence in her bones. Otherwise, how could she shoulder the whole West Island in the future!
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere at the scene was completely on the right track. The masters from all walks of life, who were a little restrained before, obviously became more frequent with each other. Ning Xuefei's birthday party was just an excuse. The key reason why these big shots came to West Island from thousands of miles away was to build relationships.
But in this situation, they not only had the opportunity to build a good relationship with West Island. He would also have the chance to get in touch with the other big shots of Heaven Stage Island! Under normal circumstances, there would not be so many important figures gathered together, especially the top-notch elders of the spirit beasts.
When the atmosphere was in a good mood, Ning Shangling, who had returned to the main seat, suddenly stood up again. Everyone consciously quieted down at once. This was not only a courtesy to the host, but also a reverence to the owner of West Island. Even Azure Dragon, a spirit beast elder who was rebellious and had incredible strength, was afraid of Ning Shangling. At this moment, they all looked at Ning Shangling tactfully, waiting for her to speak.
"Friends from the Five Islands of Heavenly Stage, on behalf of the entire West Island, I would like to thank you again for coming. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, I would like to announce an important thing to all of you. " Ning Shangling's eyes slowly swept around the audience. Seeing that everyone was waiting, she continued to announce, "As you all know, today is not only my daughter's eighteenth birthday, but also her coming of age ceremony. According to the rules of West Island, I will choose a husband for her. "
As soon as she said that. The audience suddenly burst into an uproar. Lin Yi and the others had never heard of this rule, so they were all shocked. But some people had prepared for it. Obviously, this was a traditional practice of West Island.
Somehow, Lin Yi suddenly felt a little lost at this moment. Strictly speaking, his relationship with Ning Xuefei was actually limited to good friends, far from romantic love. But at this moment, when he suddenly heard that Ning Xuefei was going to get married, the feeling of emptiness in his heart was real.
Lin Yi suddenly shook his head. Ning Xuefei was going to get married sooner or later. After all, she was the heir of West Island, and the choice of her husband was directly related to the overall situation and stability of the whole West Island. This kind of thing must be put on the agenda early, but he did not expect it to be so sudden.
At this time, Han Jingjing seemed to know what was on Lin Yi's mind. She suddenly held Lin Yi's hand tightly, suddenly blinked her big watery eyes, and said in a low voice, "Brother Lin Yi, Jingjing and Feifei are good friends, we don't want to be separated."
"Yes, me too." Shanghai Laner also blurted out, but then she suddenly blushed. She felt something was wrong, so she quickly added, "I … I mean, we are going back to the north island, and there is no chance to see each other. If Feifei gets married, it will be even less. But as long as she marries Junior Brother, there will be no problem. In that case, even if she is the princess of West Island, she can often come to the north island to play with us!"
"This …" Lin Yi was speechless for a while. Shanghai Laner was more straightforward than Han Jingjing. Just because they wanted more chances to be together, they urged him to pursue Ning Xuefei. The logic of these two girls was so simple and straightforward that it was cute!
But they were too naive. Ning Xuefei was the princess of West Island, the person who was destined to take over the whole West Island in the future. Even if he really had this idea, it was definitely not an easy thing.
No matter how much Ning Shangling doted on Ning Xuefei, on this kind of thing, she had to consider the interests of the whole West Island first! There was no doubt that this was not the time for Ning Xuefei to pursue happiness. It was purely a marriage alliance. The person who could become the husband of the princess of West Island must either have the corresponding status or absolutely powerful strength. One must be one of the two.
As for the current Lin Yi, in terms of strength, he was only at the peak of the early stage of Yuanying Realm, and in terms of status, he was only the second senior brother of the inner core supervisor of Blue Cloud Pavilion!
Although such conditions were beyond the reach of most ordinary cultivators, it was definitely extremely difficult to climb up the social ladder of the princess of West Island with this, even if it was not a fool's talk, it was definitely extremely difficult.
Suddenly, Lin Yi understood what Ning Shangling said to him just now. That could be regarded as an expectation, and it made Lin Yi take his current strength and status seriously!
Lin Yi was shaking his head secretly, but Ning Shangling's next words made him and everyone present excited. "If you want to be the husband of the princess of West Island, you must have the most potential and strength. This is the biggest and only requirement."
