Miao Yi rolled his eyes. "Stop fooling around. Even an idiot would know there's something fishy going on."
Now wasn't the time to talk about this. He quickly shook the Star Bell and asked, "Brother Kou, I know my own capabilities. I really can't believe what you're saying. Something so big just happened to me, and now they want to marry their daughter to me. This doesn't make sense. What's going on? I sincerely want to learn from you! "
Kou Wenlan, "I heard that Brother Niu's master is the Fire Asura. Is that true?"
Miao Yi was taken aback. How did the Fire Asura get involved? He replied, "I won't hide it from Brother Kou. I received the Fire Asura's true teachings by chance. It's not wrong to say that I'm his disciple. You can say that I'm his disciple. But my master has been dead for so many years. Could it be that this has something to do with him? "
Kou Wenlan immediately looked at Tang Henian. "He admitted that he's the Fire Asura's disciple. He said that he received the Fire Asura's true teachings by chance."
"Received the true teachings, the true teachings …" Tang Henian muttered and nodded.
Kou Wenlan continued to reply, "Brother Niu, it seems you've underestimated your master's power back then. But it's understandable. After all, it's been a long time. How many people would still talk about him now? Almost no one in our generation knows about him. In short, your master was someone who could dominate the world back then! You should understand now, right? This good thing that has been delivered to your doorstep is that they have taken a fancy to your inheritance and want to recruit you!
Miao Yi frowned. He had heard from Reverend Yuling that the Fire Asura was a powerful person back then. But he didn't expect that he could still attract the attention of the Four Heavenly Kings after so long. He couldn't help but blame Gao Guan. Why did he create such an identity for himself? Wasn't he just creating trouble for himself?
After some thought, he tried asking, "Could it be that Brother Kou wanted to marry my sister in the pear garden because of this?"
Kou Wenlan, "Brother Niu, you're going too far. I was just trying to help you. I didn't know you were the Fire Asura's disciple. I only found out from the steward just now. It's only recently that I heard about it. I don't know where it came from. I said you were the Fire Asura's disciple. If you don't believe me, you can go ask around when it came. Besides, Brother Niu has already rejected me. I won't mention marrying my sister again. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do.
Miao Yi: It's not that I don't believe Brother Kou. It's just that the Steward of your manor has suddenly arrived at this time.
Kou Wenlan: To tell you the truth, the butler is here to ruin your plans! It was because he had heard about this matter that the three families had sent out reputable figures. The family was afraid that ordinary people wouldn't be able to subdue the three families, so they specially sent the butler to take charge and ruin your marriage! Of course, the housekeeper also said just now that the family has explained that the Kou family owes you a favor for the matter of the Ghost City last time. If you don't want the Kou family to ruin your good deeds, just say it clearly. The Kou family guarantees that they won't meddle in this matter anymore, no matter which family's daughter you marry. Later on, the Kou Clan would send over a generous gift. They would definitely keep their word!
Miao Yi had a good impression of Niu Niu since he was so straightforward. However, he knew that things were definitely not that simple. He didn't dare to get involved in the Kou Clan's affairs so easily, so he tactfully replied, 'I have already rejected your sister's matter. It is clear that I have made up my mind. Brother Kou, don't worry.' There is no need for the Kou family to make a move on this matter. No matter which family it is, I won't marry them. I will definitely reject them all! '
Kou Wenlan immediately told Tang Henian, 'He said that there is no need for the Kou family to make a move. He will reject them all. He won't marry anyone from any family. '
"So he won't give up until he sees his own coffin? Or did I overestimate him? Or is he playing dumb? I have already come here personally. Do you think he can do anything he wants? "Tang Henian scoffed and said," I don't have time to beat around the bush with him. Let's just get straight to the point. "
Kou Wenlan nodded and continued to reply, 'I'm afraid I can't reject them. Unless Brother Niu doesn't truly like Boss Yun. They want to force Boss Yun to his death! '
Miao Yi narrowed his eyes, 'What do you mean?'
Kou Wenlan: 'If Brother Niu hadn't caused such a ruckus in Yuding Domain, Boss Yun might still be alive.' It would have been fine if Brother Niu wasn't chosen by the three families. The matter in Yuding Domain could have been settled as it was. But since the three families have chosen him, and the higher-ups of the three families have already made a move, to put it bluntly, the current Brother Niu isn't able to stop them. For Brother Niu to cause such a ruckus for the sake of a woman, it's clear how important she is to you. If Brother Niu doesn't agree, they will definitely think that Boss Yun is the real obstacle. Do you think Boss Yun will still be alive? Even if Brother Niu agrees to marry someone's daughter, Boss Yun will still die. Brother Niu has gone too far for Boss Yun. If Boss Yun doesn't die, his daughter will feel uncomfortable marrying you. More importantly, who knows what Brother Niu will do for Boss Yun in the future! Since the three families have already made a move, there is no corresponding force to break the stalemate. Brother Niu won't be able to turn the situation around! '
The corner of Miao Yi's mouth twitched violently when he heard this. When he first made up his mind to do this, he really didn't think that he would end up killing Yun Zhiqiu. More importantly, he never thought that the Heavenly Kings would actually want to marry their daughters off to him.
Seeing that Miao Yi's expression was off, Yun Zhiqiu asked worriedly, "What's wrong?"
At that moment, Miao Yi took out another Starbell. His expression darkened even further when he heard the news.
The news came from Xue 'Er. Xue' Er was suddenly intercepted by an expert on her way here. She didn't even have time to retaliate before she was captured. They searched her thoroughly and even found Red Dust. Strangely, however, the other party didn't make things difficult for them. They didn't even take a single coin from them and let them go. Xue 'Er was a little confused.
Before this, Miao Yi might not have understood what was going on. However, after hearing Kou Wenlan's words, he instantly understood. Someone was trying to prevent Yun Zhiqiu from escaping. Right now, Planet Nine Rings had become a battleground for the various major forces.
"They've gone too far!" Miao Yi cursed. He then replied to Xue 'Er, telling her that he was fine. Be careful of anyone following him, and that he would meet up with Yan Xiu as planned. He then turned to Yun Zhiqiu and sighed dejectedly. "I should have listened to your advice. I'm afraid that I've brought you harm this time …" He relayed Kou Wenlan's words to Yun Zhiqiu, as well as Snow's earlier encounter with Yun Zhiqiu.
Yun Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the situation to become so complicated. She lowered her head and said, "I don't know what the Kou Clan can do. I'm afraid they're up to no good as well."
Qian 'Er was also shocked when she heard this. She anxiously looked at Miao Yi, then at Yun Zhiqiu.
Miao Yi shook the Starbell again and asked, "I wonder what the Kou Clan can do to help me?"
Kou Wenlan: "To tell you the truth, Brother Niu, the Kou Clan has the same thoughts as them. However, the phantom city has already owed you a favor. My grandfather said that we shouldn't go overboard. If we can't even repay a debt of gratitude, how can we establish ourselves in this world? However, the Kou Clan isn't completely selfless. That's why my grandfather came up with a perfect plan. Not only will it help Brother Niu and Boss Yun, but it will also foil the plans of the other three clans. It will also protect Boss Yun and preserve the friendship between the two clans.
'There's such a good plan?' Miao Yi was surprised. He quickly asked, "I'd like to hear the details!"
Kou Wenlan: "Before that, the Steward asked me to ask you something. Is your relationship with Boss Yun only limited, or do you really want to grow old together?"
Naturally, Miao Yi and Yun Zhiqiu weren't just playing around. They immediately replied, "The latter! Of course I want to grow old together! "
Kou Wenlan: "The Steward conveyed my grandfather's wishes. He said that if you are willing, my grandfather is willing to accept Boss Yun as his' adopted daughter '. The Kou Clan will help you arrange your marriage with Boss Yun!"
Miao Yi was completely dumbfounded. He didn't know whether he should be happy or not. This was too much of a turn of events. Not even in his wildest dreams could he have imagined something like this would happen.
Yun Zhiqiu asked, "Did the Kou Clan make some sort of request?"
Miao Yi suddenly revealed an expression of exasperation. "You don't say. The Kou Clan really came up with a good idea. As long as you do as you say, nothing will happen to you. Not only will they protect you, but we can also continue to be together openly. I don't think anyone will dare to touch you easily in the future. This will solve one of my worries once and for all. I really have to give it to them. I can't believe they could come up with such a plan. Anyone who tries to mess around with them will end up dead! "
Yun Zhiqiu asked curiously, "What's the good idea?"
Miao Yi maintained an expression of exasperation. "Adopted daughter!"
"Adopted daughter?" Yun Zhiqiu was taken aback. "What adopted daughter?"
Miao Yi said, "The Kou Heavenly King has announced that he is willing to take you as his adopted daughter, and then help us arrange our wedding! This is really a brilliant idea for them. If they get what they want, then we'll be safe as well. However, I'm afraid you and I will have to become members of the Kou Clan from now on. Sigh! But I'm thinking, if he finds out that he has taken in the granddaughter of the Divine Master of the Demonic Path as his adopted daughter, and that I'm the Divine Master of the Boundless Dao, I wonder what that Kou Heavenly King will think. I don't even know if I should praise him for his intelligence, or say that he's too smart for his own good. How did he come up with such a brilliant idea that could drag the Kou Clan down with him? I say, Sister Qiu, do you think we've boarded the Kou Clan's pirate ship, or have they boarded our pirate ship? "
'Stunned!' Yun Zhiqiu was truly stunned.
Beside her, Qian'Er was also dumbfounded. Just a moment ago, she thought the situation had taken a turn for the worse. She couldn't even keep up with it.
"This … this …" Yun Zhiqiu stuttered. She was a little flustered as she asked, "Should we agree?"
Miao Yi teased, "You should be the one asking that question! If you agree, why would I have any objections? After all, you and I both know that you and the Kou Clan are just using each other. Still, we really owe them a huge favor this time. I can't help but admire the Kou Clan's shrewdness. "
Yun Zhiqiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Earlier on, she was still a widow. Now, in the blink of an eye, she has become the Kou Heavenly King's adopted daughter. What the hell is going on?" He shook his head, then smiled bitterly and said, "Now that things have come to this, I can't find any reason to refuse. I can't help but admire the Kou Clan's brilliance. They made it so that you can't even turn them down. What other objections can I have? Just agree."
Miao Yi nodded, then shook the starbell and replied, "I cannot refuse the Kou Clan's goodwill. Yun Zhiqiu has no choice but to climb the social ladder!"
"I agree!" Kou Wenlan chuckled at Tang Henian. "I'm afraid they never expected the Kou Clan to come up with such an idea. But I'll have to suffer a little in the future. I've gained an Auntie and Uncle for no reason."
