"Murong Du, how can you talk to your brother-in-law like that? Pay attention to your propriety."
A middle-aged man who looked similar to Murong Du scolded him, but his voice was not strict at all, as if he was indulging him.
Li Fan understood that although this person seemed to be scolding him, he was actually indulging him. And this person called Murong Du should be Murong Ying's cousin.
"Forgive me for being rude, but I just can't stand to see someone being presumptuous in our Murong house!"
Murong Du's body was strong, and his appearance was also dignified. His words were filled with sharpness, which was even colder than the cold wind outside the window.
"You're just a parasite that lives on Murong's breath. What qualifications do you have to sit there?"
Murong Du pointed at Li Fan's nose and fiercely ridiculed him, "You're only fit to stand at the side, do you know that?"
If it was a normal day, Murong Du would definitely be unhappy when someone said such words during the New Year's Eve dinner. But today, Murong Du did not say a word.
Murong Ying frowned. She originally planned to reprimand this unruly cousin, but Li Fan smiled and cupped his hands towards this Murong Du, "This is cousin Murong Du, right?"
"Yes, but is my name something that you can call?"
Murong Du arrogantly said, "You're only fit to call me Lord! Parasite! "
"Okay, Lord, I'm just curious, why haven't I heard of Lord's name in the Jianghu."
Li Fan asked, "This one is untalented, but after roaming the Jianghu, I only got the humble name 'Little Overlord'. But for such a powerful person like Lord Murong Du, you must have some kind of name, right? Why don't you tell me about it so that I can admire you? "
"… …"
Murong Du choked for a moment, where did he get his name from? There was no such name in the Jianghu. As for Li Fan, no matter what, his title of 'Little Overlord' was well known!
"Brother-in-law, how did you repel the Lord of Golden Eagle Castle, Yin Wuchao? Can you tell me about it?"
Murong said with a smile. "I like listening to brother-in-law talk about this."
"It's just a narrow victory. Castle Master Yin went easy on me. It's not worth mentioning."
Li Fan said humbly.
"Oh right, I wonder how many moves Cousin Brother can take with Castle Master Yin?"
Murong asked again, "Oh, I'm sorry, I said something wrong … I forgot that Castle Master Yin is also a big shot. He disdains sparring with his cousin."
"You …"
Murong blushed, "I just didn't have the chance to spar with Yin Wuchao! He, this old fellow, was also a person who deceived the world to gain fame! Leave it to me, I'll beat him until he's looking for his teeth all over the floor! "
"That sounds amazing. Cousin Brother's mouth is too amazing."
Murong gave him a thumbs up with a face full of admiration.
"Li Fan, if you have the guts, let's spar now! I'll let you know what a Murong family's martial artist is! "
"I'm sorry, Lord Cousin. The martial artist's rule is that no fighting is allowed at the end of the year."
Li Fan rejected the evil dragon Murong's challenge.
"I think you're just a coward who doesn't dare to accept the challenge!"
Murong immediately mocked.
"Whatever Lord Cousin says, I'll do it."
Li Fan didn't seem to be angry. In order to resist his inner demon, he could still control this little bit of emotion.
"Trash!"
Murong sneered, but Murong Bo slapped the table. He finally shut his mouth.
"You young people always like to be competitive. I understand that you're young and hot-tempered. "
Murong Bo said slowly, "There's a chance for you to show your hot-bloodedness."
Li Fan pricked up his ears, as if he had something to announce.
"The Murong family should know this tradition. It's a cliché."
Murong Bo said with a smile, "This year's Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea will depend on the ability of the young people."
"Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea? What's that? "
Li Fan directly transmitted his voice and asked his fiancée, who was sitting next to Murong Bo.
"You'll know when the time comes."
Murong Ying also transmitted her voice back, "A very boring program."
"Come on, my children. After eating the dumplings, the rest of the time is yours."
After Murong Bo finished, Murong Bo's father spoke.
"Patriarch, this year's Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea is not suitable for the young patriarch to appear, right?"
"Yeah, she's already this strong. Isn't it too unfair to let her participate?"
"It's fine if Xiao 'ai wants to participate, but forget about Xiao Ying."
The group of people muttered, but Murong Ying sneered.
"My cousins don't even dare to compete for a woman?"
Her words made many people blush, but there were also thick-skinned ones.
"You can't say that. After all, you're strong."
"You should give in to your brothers. What's the point of a girl being too powerful? In the end, she'll still have to get married."
"That's right. Leave the opportunity to your brothers."
These people were chattering, and Li Fan could not stand it anymore. Murong Ying's brows were also tightly knitted together. It was obvious that she was holding back her anger.
"Wife, you don't need to appear for this kind of thing."
Li Fan said with a smile, "Leave it to me."
"You want to replace Murong … replace the young patriarch?"
Murong sneered again, but Li Fan said, "After all, I'm her fiancé. I'm not as strong as her. Brothers, you have to give in to me. "
"Coward!"
There were many cold snorts, but Li Fan just raised his wine glass and drank it to them.
"In that case, let's let Li Fan replace my eldest daughter."
Murong Bo agreed, "If that's the case, does anyone have any opinion?"
Everyone was naturally happy, and no one objected. If Murong Ying were to participate in the competition, she would undoubtedly become the champion once again!
After eating the unhappy dumplings, Li Fan followed everyone to a lake outside.
This lake was not small, at least a kilometer in radius. In the center of the lake, there was a small pavilion with a firecracker tied to it. This firecracker was not small, and no one knew what kind of beautiful fireworks it would release.
On the other side of the lake stood Li Fan and a group of young people from Murong's family. Each of them held a torch in their hands, which was their only source of fire.
The only foothold on the lake was some floating duckweed. They were all green, as if it was summer. Li Fan heard from Murong that there was a mechanical heating at the bottom of the lake, and it was a warm lake all year round.
Therefore, in winter, not only did the lake not freeze, the plants in the lake were also evergreen!
Murong Bo sat on a specially made throne and pointed at the small pavilion on the opposite side of the lake, "Do you see that? This is your target. Let us wait and see who will be first this year. "
"The champion will be me!"
Murong pointed to herself and then pointed to Li Fan, "You, be careful of your legs!"
