Palace Master Shui's expression froze and she hesitated.
Palace Master Huo was full of confidence. He looked at Palace Master Shui with a smile and waited for her reply.
Today, he took the opportunity to propose marriage in front of all the core members of the Water Palace. If Palace Master Shui refused, it would not look good.
Moreover, it was clear that things were not so simple. In fact, it was far from simple.
Everyone in the Water Palace was silent. It was better for the Palace Lord to make the decision on this matter.
Palace Master Shui did not reply immediately. The atmosphere seemed to become very tense and oppressive.
Gu Lingyue secretly bit her lower lip and bowed respectfully to the Fire Palace Lord. She said, "Lingyue is very grateful for the Fire Palace Lord's appreciation. Lingyue is really flattered and touched. I'm even grateful."
"Actually, you can't blame my grandmother for this. She has talked to me about this long ago. She has been trying to persuade me to agree."
"However, Palace Master Huo, you should know that Ling Yue has been reincarnated once. After going through countless hardships and tribulations in the world, she finally regained her memories of her previous life and returned."
"Lingyue needs to properly digest the many experiences she's had in this cycle of reincarnation and adjust herself."
"Therefore, I have never agreed to this matter. Today, Palace Master Huo has personally brought Fire God to propose marriage. This should be a celebration for me. It should be a joyous occasion. If our two palaces can become even closer, it will naturally be a good thing. "
"However, Palace Master Huo, I am really sorry. There are some things that I think can't be done too quickly. Being too hasty is not a good thing. "
"Therefore, I hope that Palace Master Huo and Fire God can give me some time to digest my past and open my heart to Fire God. I believe that it will be better and fairer for Fire God."
Hearing Gu Lingyue's words, Palace Master Huo chuckled. Obviously, he was not satisfied.
Vulcan smiled and said, "Miss Ling Yue, you're wrong. It's just a reincarnation, it's nothing much. It's just a matter of the past. I'll erase it. "
"Miss Lunayue, you are now a World Deity. How could you possibly be affected by the memories of your reincarnation? I don't think it's possible, right? "
"That's why, Miss Lungyue, you don't have to be so cold and distant. You should have known my feelings for you all along. I've been trying my best to find an opportunity to get close to you and spend more time with you. "
"I believe that as long as you are willing to give me a chance, you will also give yourself a chance. As long as you can spend some time with me, I promise that you will accept me and not reject me like this. I'm very confident about this. "
"My feelings for you have never changed. Today, I've come here shamelessly, and I've made a promise in front of everyone from the Water Palace. I'm sure you can see my sincerity. "
"Miss Ling Yue, please give me a chance. A chance to prove myself, a chance to love you. Is that alright?"
It had to be said that the Fire God's words were still somewhat infectious.
But Gu Lingyue obviously didn't fall for it. She said again, "Sir Fire God, I understand your feelings. I really do."
"But this matter is really not a matter of whether you understand or not, nor is it a matter of whether I'll give you a chance. I just need time. A little time."
"I'm sure you know that I've just broken through to the World Deity stage, so I do need a long time to consolidate my cultivation."
"If you really want to talk about this matter, can you give me a little more time?"
The Fire God laughed. "Alright, if Miss Lungyue needs a little more time, of course there's no problem. But the question is, how long will it take? "
"Can you give me a rough estimate so that I can be mentally prepared? No, it can't be so far away, right?"
Gu Lingyue couldn't help but bite her lips hard when she heard the Fire God's words.
It seemed that today's situation was indeed not easy to deal with.
It wouldn't be easy to get rid of the Fire God.
If there was only the Fire God, it wouldn't be a problem. But the problem was that the Fire Palace Master was also here. With the Fire Palace Master around, there were many things that couldn't be said.
No matter what, she had to give the Fire Palace Master face. Palace Master Shui didn't want to make things ugly with the Fire Palace Master.
Moreover, this was the Water Palace. If things got ugly, it would be a disgrace to the Water Palace.
It was precisely because of this that this matter put Palace Master Shui in a very difficult position.
Gu Lingyue clenched her fists and didn't say anything for a while.
Gu Lingyue really didn't know how to respond to the Fire God's move.
She did have some moves, but some of them weren't suitable here. This was what made Gu Lingyue upset.
What should she do?
Gu Lingyue was also in a difficult position for a while.
Seeing that Gu Lingyue didn't respond, the Fire God said again, "Miss Lungyue, it seems that you're deliberately avoiding me and delaying me, right?"
"Today, I've come here shamelessly to propose marriage. Since I've said so much, Miss Lungyue, shouldn't you say something?"
"I don't know if I'm not good enough for Miss Lungyue. What's the matter? Miss Lungyue, you can say it openly."
"Or perhaps — Miss Lungyue, are you still thinking about that lowly life from the Primordial Universe?"
"Nonsense!" Gu Lingyue suddenly rebuked him angrily. She glared at the Fire God and calmed down a little. Then, she said, "Young Master Fire God, I respect you very much, but I think it's better not to say something carelessly."
"This matter is related to my reputation. If news of this were to spread, I'm afraid there would be a lot of gossip."
"Therefore, I hope that Young Master Fire God won't speak carelessly about this matter in the future. What do you think?"
The Fire God cupped his fists at Gu Lingyue and said apologetically, "I'm sorry. It was a slip of the tongue just now. I apologize to Miss Lungyue."
"Of course, I naturally hope that's not the case. Otherwise, it will indeed be a great damage to Miss Lungyue's reputation. "
Gu Lingyue said coldly, "Don't worry about this. I know better than you. I'm the heir of the Water Palace and the future Master of the Water Palace. How can I fall in love with a lowly life from a small universe? "
"Since Young Master Fire God needs time, how about an era?"
"When I've adjusted myself, I'll definitely give Young Master Fire God a satisfactory answer. An era is not a long time. Young Master Fire God, you can't even wait for this little bit of time, right? "
An era was not a long time, but it was not short either.
The Fire God hesitated for a moment. He really wanted to strike while the iron was hot and win the marriage in one fell swoop.
The Fire God looked at the Fire Palace Master. The Fire Palace Master frowned and pondered for a long time. After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he nodded to the Fire God.
After receiving the Fire Palace Master's nod, the Fire God said, "Well then, Miss Lungyue, it's a deal. An era."
"When the time is up, I'll come to the Water Palace to propose marriage. When the time comes, I hope Miss Lungyue won't disappoint me again. "
Gu Lingyue nodded and did not say anything else.
The Fire Palace Master said to the Water Palace Master, "Since this matter is settled for the time being, I won't disturb you any further. The next time I come to the Water Palace to propose marriage, I'll bring a lot of good wine. We'll drink to our hearts' content then. Hahaha! "
With that, the Fire Palace Master left with the Fire God.
After the two of them left, the atmosphere in the Water Palace was still a little tense.
It was a little strange.
No one dared to say anything about this matter.
The Water Palace Master's expression was not very good. She waved her hand, indicating for everyone to leave.
The crowd did not stay any longer and left one after another. The World Gods also left.
Soon, only Gu Lingyue and the Water Palace Master were left in the huge Water Palace.
The Water Palace Master looked at Gu Lingyue and said with a serious face, "Lingyue, don't blame me for this. The situation forced me. I didn't have a better solution for some things, so I had to make some compromises.
You should be very clear about the subtle situation of the Heavenly Laws Dao Palace's five palaces.
Although the Fire God also has a motive for marrying you, it doesn't matter. No matter what, the Fire God is still a very outstanding person. If you really want to say something, I do feel that the Fire God is the best match for you in the entire Elemental Saint Realm.
"If you can get together with the Fire God, it may not be a bad thing for you."
"You'd better think about the various situations in this matter carefully. I know that you're a smart child and a director.
But it's precisely because I know you're smart that I don't want to force you to do some things. As you can see, the Fire God has brought this up several times, but I suppressed it every time. The Fire Palace Master has also been pressing for this matter, and I've also done my best to suppress it.
"But in Granny's heart, I still hope that you can agree."
Gu Lingyue pursed her lips and nodded, saying, "Grandma, I know. I know what to do. I won't make things difficult for you."
The Water Palace Master nodded with gratification and took Gu Lingyue's hand, saying, "Yes, I know you're an obedient child.
You have to believe me. I've been there before. What love? That's all a lie. That's all temporary. That's just a momentary lapse of judgment. "
Actually, that's all there is between a man and a woman. There are some things that you'll only fully understand after you've truly experienced it.
I've experienced everything, so I understand it very well. I've long been indifferent to it. It's just what it is. It's not as beautiful, touching, unforgettable, or worthy of being chased by you as you imagine.
Choosing something like this might not give you a second chance. So, you have to make the right choice the first time.
You're still young and haven't experienced much, so there are many things that you don't really understand and can't understand. I don't blame you if you don't understand. I understand your thoughts.
But you can't be wrong to listen to me. I love you the most. I'll never harm you.
I don't care if you still have that person in your heart. Forget about it. He's just a passerby on your Reincarnation Road. He's not worth remembering. "
Gu Lingyue nodded, saying, "Yes, I know. I've already forgotten. Don't worry, grandma. I know what to do. "
"Well, that's good. I'm relieved." The Water Palace Master nodded.
