"How is it? Does Sect Master Ye still want to betroth Miss Ye to me?" Lu Yuan tapped his finger on the table, a strange smile on his face.
Hearing this, Ye Lingsu fell silent. She was naturally unwilling to let her daughter be the fifth child.
But on the other hand, Lu Yuan was too outstanding. He was indeed a good match for her daughter. If she could marry Lu Yuan, Ye Lingling would have a guarantee for the rest of her life. The Nine-Hearted Begonia would also be able to be passed down smoothly.
Moreover, with Lu Yuan's current status, once Ye Lingling married him, her social status would skyrocket and she would become one of the top figures in the continent. There was no doubt that with the current prestige of the Dragon King Palace, if Ye Lingling could become the wife of the Palace Lord, even the current Emperor of Snowy Night would have to show her some respect.
Ye Lingsu had stayed in the Dragon King Hall for a period of time. She knew some news about the medicine hall and the Soul Tool Hall. The Dragon King Hall had pills and soul tools. It would definitely soar in the future. It might even become the strongest sect in the world. How could she not want to join such a large and luxurious cruise ship?
Therefore, she was not only concerned about letting her daughter be a concubine, but she also could not bear to part with Lu Yuan. Her heart was very complicated.
Looking at Ye Lingsu's silent appearance, Lu Yuan could not help but shake his head. This woman really knew how to think. She actually wanted to marry Ye Lingling to him so that he could protect the Nine-Hearted Begonia. Furthermore, she could use Ye Lingling to elevate her status in the Dragon King Hall. It was killing two birds with one stone.
However, was it so easy to take advantage of Lu Yuan?
It had always been him taking advantage of others. No one had ever taken advantage of him without paying a price.
After Dugu Bofou obtained the poison pill, he was able to control the poison in his body, and his strength increased greatly. However, the price was that he would be under Lu Yuan's control for the rest of his life. Look at him now, he is still helping Lu Yuan guard the medicine hall.
Another example was Ning Fengzhi. He had obtained a soul tool from Lu Yuan, which allowed his direct descendants to possess fighting strength comparable to that of a soul warrior. But what were the consequences?
The consequence was that the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect would be restricted by the Dragon King Hall. Without the supply of soul tools, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect would return to its original state. After all, only Lu Yuan knew how to use soul tools.
And most importantly, Lu Yuan was very disgusted with this kind of political marriage.
If Lu Yuan was willing to do so, he could have taken Ning Rongrong in as early as two years ago. There was no need to hesitate until now.
It wasn't as if Ning Fengzhi, that sly old fox, didn't have any thoughts of forming a marriage alliance. It was just that he was smart and took the emotional route. Wherever Lu Yuan went, he would send his daughter there, using true feelings to influence her.
After all, people's hearts were made of flesh. Moreover, Lu Yuan was a person who could be persuaded by reason but not cowed by force. It was easy for him to be soft-hearted towards women, especially those beautiful women.
In the beginning, he didn't have any feelings for Ning Rongrong at all. He even rejected her outright.
But from two years ago until now, Ning Rongrong's feelings for him were getting deeper and deeper. He saw it all. He wasn't a cold-hearted person. Faced with such feelings, he was naturally touched. It was just that he still had some misgivings in his heart. But no matter what, Ning Fengzhi's methods were effective.
Didn't Lu Yuan know what Ning Fengzhi was thinking?
No, he knew. He had always known. It was just that Ning Fengzhi's methods were brilliant and didn't make others feel disgusted.
He wasn't like Ye Lingsu, who obviously put the political marriage on the table to discuss. This made Lu Yuan very angry. It was just that he was good at maintaining his composure and didn't show his emotions on his face.
However, as his mentality changed, his tone became a little more forceful.
"Sect Leader Ye, I'm waiting for your reply!" Lu Yuan tapped his fingers on the table and looked at Ye Lingsu calmly. A formless pressure instantly spread.
Lu Yuan's voice sounded, and immediately woke Ye Lingsu up from her thoughts.
Facing Lu Yuan's calm yet somewhat intimidating gaze, Ye Lingsu felt a rare sense of nervousness in her heart.
Although she was an auxiliary-type soul master, her soul power was still at Rank 82. But she felt a lot of pressure from Lu Yuan. This made her feel quite shocked.
Looking at the young Lord of the Dragon King Palace again, he seemed to have changed into another person. Originally, he was a modest gentleman, gentle as jade, courteous and courteous.
But now, he gave her the feeling of a high and mighty emperor. He gave off a majestic aura that made it difficult for others to look at him directly. Was this the true face of this young man?
"Lu, Sect Leader Lu …" Ye Lingsu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she was interrupted by Lu Yuan.
"Let's not talk nonsense. Sect Leader Ye, you haven't told me what you think. Now that you know that I have four close female friends, are you still willing to marry Miss Ye Lingling to me as a concubine? "
Lu Yuan asked plainly.
"This …" Ye Lingsu was a little speechless when she met Lu Yuan's gaze.
"Ah, you want to marry me, but you don't want to be a concubine. Do you want to be a concubine? Sect Leader Ye, you're dreaming. Even Sect Leader Ning of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect doesn't have such thoughts. He doesn't want his daughter to be a concubine. I don't know where you get your confidence from, Sect Leader Ye. "
Seeing that Ye Lingsu's expression had turned a little ugly, Lu Yuan smiled faintly and said, "To tell you the truth, although I'm a playboy with four close female friends, I still respect every relationship. My love for them is real. I hate political marriages the most, because relationships aren't something to be bought or traded."
"You want me to marry Miss Ye Lingling just like that. Have you considered your daughter's feelings? Or is it that this kind of political marriage has become the norm for your sects? "
"As long as the sect can continue, sacrificing the feelings of your daughter doesn't matter, right?"
Lu Yuan looked straight at Ye Lingsu as he spoke.
After being questioned by Lu Yuan, Ye Lingsu opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything.
To be honest, she didn't feel that her actions were wrong. This was because on the Douluo Continent, for sects like them, this was a common occurrence.
Even her own daughter, Ye Lingling, wasn't disgusted by her actions. This was because she had asked for her daughter's opinion, and her daughter had expressed her understanding.
However, she didn't expect the Dragon King Hall Master to be so resistant to political marriages. Furthermore, she didn't know how to answer his question.
Was she supposed to admit that she was sacrificing Ye Lingling's feelings?
Although that was the truth, she still couldn't bring herself to say it out loud.
Therefore, she could only remain silent in the face of Lu Yuan's question.
