Judging from the emotions of these clansmen, it was clearly not a simple matter. Moreover, these mystical beasts were very powerful. If even they felt that it was not simple, then it was very likely that it would be very difficult for Bian Qingliu.
However, Bian Qingliu did not hesitate. He immediately bowed and said, "This junior is willing to accept!"
Seeing Bian Qingliu's attitude, whether it was Chu Yue, Lu An, or the Patriarch, none of them were surprised. Since he could even eat his Pearl of Life, he naturally would not hesitate.
"There's one more thing." The Patriarch spoke again. He looked at Bian Qingliu and said seriously, "If you marry my daughter, you must become a member of the Xuanyin Clan, not a human. No matter what you do, you must prioritize the Xuanyin Clan. In the future, you must also stay in the Xuanyin Clan. Without my orders, you can never return to the continent! "
As soon as he said this, Bian Qingliu's body trembled. Finally, panic appeared in his eyes.
Lu An frowned and turned to look at Bian Qingliu.
He believed that Bian Qingliu would definitely be willing to live in the deep sea for Chu Yue. Otherwise, he would not have become a mystical beast. However, the problem was not that simple. Bian Qingliu had family, and his family was still human.
As expected, Bian Qingliu immediately cupped his hands and pleaded, "This junior has family and needs to be filial. I don't have to go back often, but this junior still wants to go back to spend time with my family during festivals …"
Hearing Bian Qingliu's words, the Patriarch's eyes clearly turned cold. He hated humans, not just the Hachiko clan, but the entire human race. He could accept Bian Qingliu, but he could not accept more humans, let alone form so-called 'in-laws' with humans.
Just as the Patriarch was about to say something, Chu Yue opened her mouth, her voice trembling as she said forcefully, "Father, you asked him to use his Heavenly Jewel, he did it, you asked him to accept the baptism, he also agreed, I didn't object, is that not enough?"
Lu An was shocked and looked at Chu Yue. Chu Yue had always been cute and had never spoken in such a tone.
The clan leader also looked at his daughter in surprise. Looking at his daughter's weak face, he finally stopped asking Bian Qingliu to do anything. Instead, he turned to look at Lu An.
"Did you just say that it's your responsibility to deal with the Hachiko clan?" The patriarch's voice instantly sank. His tone was completely different from the one he used to talk to his daughter and Bian Qingliu. It was as if he had changed from a private family matter to an official one.
"Currently, my only enemies are the Jiang Clan and the Chu Clan," Lu An said seriously. "If the other clans try to stop me, they will become my enemies."
"Do you think you can defeat the Hachiko clan?" the clan leader asked again.
"Not now. I don't know what will happen in the future," Lu An said. "Apart from myself, I've also combined many forces."
"Which powers?" The clan leader asked. "I'm very curious. What kind of forces can compete with the current Hachiko clan?"
"Sorry," Lu An said. "I can't say."
"…"
The surrounding strange beasts were all staring at Lu An. Their gazes were obviously not so friendly.
"He's your subordinate?" the clan leader asked again.
Lu An looked at Bian Qingliu and then at the clan leader. "He's my friend."
"In other words, he's also part of the forces you're fighting against the Hachiko clan?" the clan leader asked sharply.
"That's right." Lu An did not hide anything.
"Very good." The clan leader took a deep breath. Even the surrounding seawater shook violently. "When Chu Yue mentioned you to me, she said that she likes to live by your side. He's also your friend. Although they can live in the deep sea, I can see that they want to leave this place and go with you. "
"…"
Lu An's eyes were calm. He looked at the clan leader without speaking.
"I'll give you a chance." The clan leader looked condescendingly at Lu An and said loudly, "As long as you can pass, both of them can go with you!"
As soon as these words came out, all the Xuanyin clan members trembled. They looked at the clan leader with shock and astonishment. They did not know why the clan leader would do this.
Chu Yue and Bian Qingliu were the same. They looked at each other and saw the joy in each other's eyes. Although they were willing to live in the deep sea for the rest of their lives, they both preferred the human world.
The two immediately looked at Lu An. They saw that Lu An was standing straight and looking up at the clan leader. His eyes were still very calm, so calm that it made people feel afraid.
After four breaths, Lu An said, "Senior, please speak."
"In the territory of my Xuanyin clan, there's a place called the Starlight Field. As long as you can walk out of it, I'll consider you passed," the clan leader said loudly.
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding strange beasts trembled again. This time, it was even more obvious than before. They all looked at the clan leader in shock.
Even Chu Yue was the same. She hurriedly shouted at her father, "How can you walk out of that place?!"
Unfortunately, the clan leader did not pay attention to her at all. Instead, he looked at Lu An with a serious and heavy gaze. He looked at the tiny human standing on the rock.
"I can tell you very responsibly that the power in the Starlight Field will not exceed your strength by too much. It's within the range that you can withstand," the clan leader said loudly. "How about it? Do you have the courage? "
Lu An, who had been silent, suddenly smiled and said, "Yes."
As soon as he said this, the clan leader was startled.
Lu An's only concern was that the power in this place was too much stronger than him. If it was a power that he could deal with, he had no reason to object. Otherwise, how could he face the Hachiko clan in the future?
Seeing that Lu An had agreed, the clan leader's eyes did not show much admiration. After all, the ignorant were fearless. He still needed to see the final result. If this kid could walk through half of it, he would acknowledge this kid's talent and strength.
"When to accept the baptism and when to go to the Starlight Field is up to the two of you," the clan leader said. "I won't force you."
"I can do it now!" Bian Qingliu said immediately.
That's right. Since he had already come this far, Bian Qingliu did not want to wait any longer. He had to be faster, faster.
"Okay, this is your choice." The clan leader immediately turned his head and looked at a clansman beside him. "Take him there."
The clansman nodded and said to Bian Qingliu, "Follow me."
Bian Qingliu looked at Chu Yue, and the two clasped hands. Chu Yue's face turned even paler because of her worry, while Bian Qingliu gave her a reassuring smile and said, "Don't worry. No matter how painful it is, I can endure it. Wait for me."
With that, Bian Qingliu got up and swam away, following the mystical beast into the distance. Soon, they disappeared from everyone's perception.
"What about you?" the clan leader asked Lu An.
There was only one outsider left. All the mystical beasts looked at Lu An, including Chu Yue. Lu An did not know what kind of place the Starlight Field was. It was a terrifying place that not many clansmen had been able to walk out of!
"I still need to wait for an hour," Lu An said directly.
The clan leader and the clansmen around him were stunned. The clan leader asked, "Why?"
"The power in my body has not fully recovered yet." Lu An said truthfully. It would take an hour for the Return to Heaven Technique in his body to be fully recovered. Although he was courageous and confident, it did not mean that he was a hothead.
"Okay," the clan leader said, "I will send someone to take you there in an hour. Take care of yourself."
With that, the clan leader turned to his daughter and said, "Let's go."
"No!" Chu Yue immediately shook her head, causing her twin ponytails to flutter. She said seriously, "I want to talk to him for a while!"
Looking at his daughter's appearance, the clan leader was somewhat dissatisfied. However, looking at his daughter's weak face and the fact that this was the territory of the Xuanyin Clan, he did not have the heart to refuse his daughter's request.
The clan leader did not say anything and turned to leave. Seeing this, the other clansmen did not stay. Soon, the surroundings became very quiet. Only Lu An and Chu Yue were left.
"Brother!" Chu Yue's weak face showed a happy smile from the bottom of her heart. She skipped over to Lu An and called out happily.
Hearing this, Lu An smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so tall."
"I'm also very strong now!" Chu Yue's pretty face was full of pride and flaunting. She waved her pink fists and said, "I learned a lot after coming back. I'm very powerful now!"
Lu An's smile grew wider. He naturally felt that Chu Yue was now at Rank 8. He said, "Have you been bored in the past three years?"
"Yes!" Chu Yue nodded vigorously. She was very lively. Although she had been very quiet after coming back here, it did not mean that she liked to be quiet. Now that the two most important people in her life were here, her nature was revealed again.
"Don't worry," Lu An said with a smile, "I will take you back."
