Lin Feng and Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't be so bored as to eavesdrop on the conversation between their juniors. However, with their divine senses spread out, the conversation between Tang Jun and Duanmu Hong naturally fell into their ears.
Other words were like the wind that blew past without leaving a trace. It wouldn't attract the attention of Lin Feng and Duanmu Hong at all, but once the words "the aboriginals are looking for trouble" entered their ears, Lin Feng and Duanmu Hong were naturally more attentive as seniors.
However, after hearing Duanmu Hong's words clearly, Lin Feng was instantly speechless. He looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Aren't these the words Master used to joke with you? Did you tell them?"
Xiao Yan also didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I only told Tiancang, treating it as a joke."
Just like the relationship between Lin Feng and Xiao Yan, the master-disciple relationship between Xiao Yan and Tang Jun was also very relaxed. They often joked and teased each other.
Who knew that little Duanmu Hong, who was at the side, would firmly remember it in his heart and treat it seriously?
At this moment, Tang Jun looked at Duanmu Hong's serious and somewhat worried gaze. For a moment, he also had the urge to look up at the sky and cry against the wind.
He had always been unyielding towards outsiders, but towards his own people, he never had a temper, especially when Duanmu Hong was his personal disciple. At this moment, he could only smile bitterly and say, "That was a joke between Grandmaster and Master. Duanmu, don't take it seriously."
"Fake?" Duanmu Hong blinked his eyes, instantly confused.
Tang Jun sighed. "Dao Venerate Qingye is peerless in her generation, like a banished immortal. There are probably many people who secretly admire her. This is true, but no one would go and challenge your grandmaster."
"Your grandmaster's magical powers are astonishing. Back then, when he first formed his Primordial Soul, he was already able to fight against experts of the Path Integration Realm. This isn't us bragging, it's your grandmaster's actual battle achievements. There are quite a few people who know about this. This matter isn't a secret, and it's very easy to verify. When your grandmaster came to propose marriage, how could the people of the Ancient Immortals Realm not investigate the most basic things?"
"Putting aside the fact that there might not be anyone in the Ancient Immortals World who dares to challenge your grandmaster, even if there is an expert in the younger generation who can challenge your grandmaster, he definitely wouldn't foolishly come to find trouble."
Duanmu Hong blinked his eyes. "Why?"
Tang Jun extended his thumb and pointed at the room behind him. "Because this time, it is not your grandmaster who has come to visit. Rather, it is your Great Grandmaster who has personally come to visit the Ancient Longevity Plane. Our sect is the one who has come to visit the Ancient Longevity Plane. Before coming here, we had already informed each other.
"To be honest, if your grandmaster is a lone cultivator, and if the experts of the Ancient Immortals World come to propose marriage without knowing his background, then the previous joke might become reality. But in this situation, it's really just a joke."
"As for the elders of the Ancient Immortals World opposing the marriage between your grandmaster and Dao Venerate Qingye, I'm afraid that will happen, but it's not because of a toad lusting after a swan's flesh. It involves a higher level, and it's no longer just a matter of marriage."
"As for the elders of the Ancient Immortals World opposing the marriage between your grandmaster and Dao Venerate Qingye, I'm afraid that will happen, but it's not because of a toad lusting after a swan's flesh. It involves a higher level, and it's no longer just a matter of marriage."
As the First Seat True Disciple of Xiao Yan, Tang Jun, who was now a Yuanying cultivator, would naturally come into contact with more and more information of a higher level.
"But even so, it's a matter of private communication within the Ancient Immortals World. It won't be brought to the surface and openly cause trouble for your grandmaster." After Tang Jun finished speaking, Duanmu Hong asked, not really understanding, "Why?"
Tang Jun's tone was indifferent. "Because our master is Xuanmen Tianzong, and because your Great Grandmaster is the master of the Daoist Sect, and your grandmaster is the Head Elder of our sect."
"There are only three circumstances in which your grandmaster's marriage proposal could cause the Ancient Immortals to retaliate violently."
Tang Jun raised three fingers at Duanmu Hong and said calmly, "First, we have a feud with the Ancient Immortals. Second, if Dao Venerate Qingye isn't willing, your grandmaster wants to take her as his wife. Third, us juniors in the Ancient World of Immortals have caused a great disaster, a great disaster that would immediately cause both sides to have a blood feud."
"As long as it's not these three circumstances, even if the Ancient Emperor of the Ancient World of Immortals joins our opposing side, our visit this time will at most be tactfully rejected. There won't be any unpleasantness on the surface."
He patted Duanmu Hong's little head. "Of these three circumstances, which do you think is close to it?"
Duanmu Hong shook his head. "None of them are close to it. It's the third. Disciples and brothers, you have to be careful."
He thought for a moment and said, "But we can't be reckless. They can also use a formal challenge or ask for advice to find grandmaster."
Tang Jun smiled. "That's right, they are worth teaching. They can, but it won't be today. Because they have already done so. This is the first time your grandmaster has come to the Ancient World of Immortals. Your grandmaster isn't, and neither am I. "
"The few elders of the Gu Clan have secretly probed your grandmaster many times. It's just that they all came in high spirits and returned in disappointment."
"Even the rising talents of the Ancient Immortals in the Yuanying stage, I have fought with them more than once or twice."
Duanmu Hong's interest was instantly piqued. "Master, did you win or lose?"
Tang Jun thought for a moment. "I won all of them, but it's not like there aren't any experts in the younger generation of the Ancient World of Immortals. Dao Venerate Qingye's junior is called Gu Liancheng, and he's quite outstanding."
Speaking up to here, Tang Jun rubbed his chin. "Now that you mention it, I remember that Gu Liancheng said that he couldn't beat me in a fight of magical powers. The next time we meet, he wants to compete with me in alchemy …"
While Tang Jun and Duanmu Hong were talking, Lin Feng looked at Xiao Yan with a smile that wasn't a smile. Xiao Yan laughed awkwardly. "Child's words carry no harm, child's words carry no harm."
Lin Feng used his finger to point at him. "You ah, jokes have to be made according to the situation and the person. When I told you those jokes, did I do it in front of Yuan Fang?"
Xiao Yan sighed. At this time, the door opened, and Xiao Zhen 'er walked in holding little Lin Tong's hand.
Little Lin Tong's longing for Xiao Zhen 'er was no less than Xiao Yan's. Once they arrived at the residence, she immediately occupied Xiao Zhen' er and chattered non-stop.
When she saw Xiao Yan, the little girl giggled and said, "Daddy, don't be angry. I will return Mother to you now."
"It's godfather, not daddy." Xiao Yan said in a bad mood. Little Tong 'er was getting older and more mature. She was very obedient in other things, but this was the only problem that Xiao Yan corrected countless times. She always turned a deaf ear to. Now, Xiao Yan was a little numb.
Fortunately, when there were outsiders around, Little Lin Tong would be more restrained. Most of the time, she would call him master.
Xiao Zhen 'er and Lin Tong bowed towards Lin Feng together. Xiao Zhen' er said softly, "Senior Lin, not even two hours after you entered the Ancient Realm, the head of the Taixu Temple, Yan Nanlai, brought along the Grand Elder Lord Qing Ning, the Grand Elder Wu Mengqi, the disciple of the head of Yan Temple, the current world wayfarer of Daoism, Lin Daohan, as well as a group of junior disciples to visit the Ancient Realm of Longevity."
"Ninth Grand Uncle has already gone to welcome them. I believe they will arrive at Longevity City soon."
Lin Feng smiled slightly. "It's fine. I can roughly guess why they are here."
When Yan Nanlai and his group came to visit, Gu Jun and the others of the Ancient World also received them and arranged their accommodations. After a brief conversation, the people of Taixu Temple went to their accommodations to rest. Similarly, they would officially discuss matters the next day.
On the second day, Gu Peng came to invite them. Lin Feng brought Xiao Yan, Zhu Yi, Yang Qing, and Li Yuanfang to the central main hall of the palace.
The current Ancient Emperor, Gu Jun, and the other two big shots of the Ancient World of Longevity, Gu Cheng and Gu Yuankai, were already waiting in the main hall.
After the two sides greeted each other and sat down, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Gu, my purpose for coming here has already been mentioned in our previous communication."
"This time, I have no other intentions. My eldest disciple, Xiao Yan, wants to ask for your daughter's hand in marriage. His parents died when he was young and his grandfather is old, so I, as his master, have come to propose marriage on his behalf. I hope the three Daoists of the Ancient World can forgive me for my lack of manners."
Xiao Yan sat below him and did not say much. He left everything to Lin Feng. Xiao Zhen 'er also sat Silently on the opposite seat.
After looking at Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhen 'er, Lin Feng continued, "By coincidence, my eldest disciple and your daughter grew up together. They were childhood sweethearts, and after they grew up, they fell in love with each other. Now, they have both become Primordial Divinities and live as long as the heavens. In the future, they will support each other and live together. This is also a beautiful story."
Gu Jun said, "Master of Xuan Men is too polite. Your daughter is much better than my daughter."
Gu Cheng didn't say anything. Slowly, Gu Yuankai said, "Both of them have become Primordial Divinities and have a stable foundation. But they are still young. For mortals, they are not young, but for us cultivators, they have just stepped on the path of human growth."
"It is naturally a good thing that they love each other. But the years are long, so they should spend more time together. After the accumulation of time, it will be beneficial for them to help each other in the future."
He turned around and looked at Xiao Zhen 'er kindly. He smiled and said, "Zhen' er, don't blame me. It's just that we need to spend a long time together, not a fiery passion. It's not that I don't think highly of you and Xiao Yan, I just hope that you can go further and smoother in the future."
When a cultivator's age reached a certain point, their age was no longer the same as that of mortals. There was no limit to their lifespan. When a cultivator was immersed in cultivation, they might spend a few months, a few years, a few decades, or even hundreds or thousands of years.
Whether a person's mind was mature or not depended on the increase of experience and knowledge, not purely on the increase of age. From the perspective of the growth of experience and emotional intelligence, there was not much difference between a person cultivating in seclusion for 50 years and sleeping for 50 years.
So, it was not wrong to say that Xiao Yan and Xiao Zhen 'er were young. But Gu Yuankai's words were just a facade.
