After hearing Yao's answer, the entire room fell silent.
The ones who knew Yao the best were Yuan and the beautiful woman. Both of their faces were completely covered in shock because they knew better than anyone else how much Yao hated cultivation!
When she was young, because of Yao's outstanding talent, which was much stronger than her two brothers, he and the beautiful woman spent a lot of effort to persuade her, but it was all to no avail. Now, they did not expect that she would agree because of an outsider!
Could it be that their daughter fell in love with this young man?!
Yao was sixteen years old this year, and there was only a three-year age gap between them. But this kid was too weak, and he did not seem to have any background. He did not even have a Fate Wheel. How could he be worthy of their daughter?
But no matter what, it must be a good thing that their daughter was willing to cultivate. Yuan said in a deep voice, "Little Yao, cultivation is very difficult. You have seen your two brothers cultivate. Are you sure you can do it?"
"Yes." Yao said firmly again, "But I request that I choose the immortal arts for him. No matter what I choose, you must agree!"
Yuan frowned when he heard Yao's words. He really did not expect this young man to be so important to his daughter that she wanted to give him the best immortal arts.
If that was the case, then he really had to consider it carefully. It was fine to teach ordinary immortal arts, but could he really teach the core immortal arts to an outsider?
If he gave it to this young man, would he spread it again?
He could not help but worry about this. Although it was extremely difficult to cultivate immortal arts, and it was even harder to cultivate after leaving Sengoku, he still had to be careful.
Yuan fell into deep thought again. This time, he pondered for a long time. During the process, no one spoke, including the beautiful woman. Finally, after the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Yuan raised his head again.
He looked at Lu An in front of him. After carefully sizing him up again, he turned to Yao and said, "I agree."
Hearing her father's words, Yao immediately smiled happily. Seeing his daughter's smile, Yuan also smiled, but said seriously, "But if the immortal arts are spread because of him, I will not forgive him!"
As he spoke, Yuan looked at Lu An.
Lu An was stunned. Then, he smiled and said, "I will definitely not impart the immortal technique to others."
Hearing this, Yuan nodded in satisfaction and said to the beautiful woman next to him, "It's already noon. Let's celebrate our daughter's return. Tell them to prepare a banquet; I want to have a good drink!"
"Alright." The beautiful woman smiled and nodded.

The luncheon was quickly prepared, and it was not held in the house, but in the open air. It was just that the air in Sengoku was too fresh, and the climate was warm but not hot. The occasional cool breeze made people feel exceptionally comfortable.
For the first time, Lu An felt that holding a banquet outside was a very comfortable thing. As a guest, Lu An naturally sat at the banquet as well. Furthermore, he sat right beside Yao. The lunch banquet this time brought together all the important personnel of Sengoku, and it was very grand.
While waiting, Lu An And Yao sat together and chatted. Because he had to cultivate the immortal technique, Lu An had to stay in Sengoku for a while. Since he was going to stay in Sengoku, there were some things that he needed to know about Sengoku.
"There are about a thousand people in Sengoku," Yao said softly to Lu An. "They are divided into the main branch and the collateral branch. The main branch refers to my father's branch, and the collateral branch refers to the others. However, this matter only concerns the succession of the Master of Sengoku. As for other aspects, it is not obvious. "
"The people who will be eating here in a while are all important figures from the collateral branch. Some are strong, and some are outstanding people of the younger generation. During your time in Sengoku, it is very likely that you will come into contact with them. "
Listening to Yao's explanation, Lu An nodded slightly and noted it down carefully. Then, he asked, "Are there any rules, such as things that should not be done?"
"If it's rules, there is nothing." After thinking carefully, Yao said, "The people here live very freely, and there are no restrictions."
Lu An nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
Lu An And Yao had been whispering to each other, and the way they whispered to each other naturally attracted the attention of others. In the eyes of others, the two of them seemed to be very close.
Many people were already surprised when they heard that Yao had returned, and they were even more shocked when they heard that she had brought a young man with her. When the people from the collateral branch saw the two of them, they could not help but speculate about their relationship.
Finally, after a while, everyone took their seats. Yuan stood up and said, "Today's lunch is a little rushed, but it is difficult to express the excitement in my heart. Yu and I are happier than anyone else that Little Yao is back. Let me toast everyone! "
After Yuan finished speaking, he downed his drink. The others drank it one after another, including Lu An. After all, he was a guest, and it would be disappointing if he did not drink. Although he did not like to drink, it did not mean that he could not drink.
Then, Yao stood up and toasted everyone, saying, "While I was away from home, everyone has been worried about me. I feel guilty, so please forgive me. "
After everyone drank, they could not help but say, "You were away for so long, so you don't know how much your father missed you. He sent people out to look for you every day, and even went out to look for you personally many times. And if you didn't come back, I'm afraid he would have gone to beg for help! "
Yao heard this and felt even more guilty.
At this moment, under Yuan's gaze, Lu An also stood up, looked around, and said politely, "I'm Lu An, and I'm not from Sengoku. It's my honor to be able to come to Sengoku today, and it's even more of an honor to be able to drink with everyone at the same table. Please forgive me if I've disturbed you, and I'll drink three cups first. "
After speaking, Lu An really drank three cups in a row. One had to know that although Sengoku was very fragrant, it did not mean that there was no alcohol in it. Lu An drank three cups in a row, which was enough to show his sincerity.
Such a scene made many old fellows nod in satisfaction, and they all drank a mouthful. However, the young talents from the collateral branches all frowned, and looked at Lu An with unfriendly eyes.
When Lu An sat down, Yuan was slightly relieved. No matter what, this young man's attitude was very good, and he was polite enough to give Sengoku face. He was afraid of those arrogant brats who thought too highly of themselves, and that would be very difficult for him.
Soon, everyone began to eat to their heart's content. Lu An's table was filled with people from the main branch, and they all had higher statuses. Lu An did not know what to say, and he could not respond at all. Fortunately, Yao kept talking to him, so he did not feel so awkward.
The lunch lasted for a long time, and they only stopped when all the wine was drunk. Yao's return also made Yuan feel relieved. Moreover, it was rare for so many people to gather together, so the older people gathered together to chat.
As for the younger generation, the older people did not want the younger generation to be alienated, so they gathered together and communicated on the other side.
Yao's big brother was not in Sengoku, and he was out on a mission, so among the younger generation, the leader was naturally Qing. Under Qing's lead, more than twenty people came to the garden at the side. There were flowers, grass, and a stream here, and it was very beautiful.
Yao's popularity among the younger generation was obviously very high, but it was true, even in Sengoku, Yao's temperament and appearance were the best. The younger men came to Yao's side and asked about her well-being, expressing their concern.
Because there were too many people, Yao could not handle it, and Lu An was left alone. Lu An sat on a rock, and did not feel awkward. At this time, a figure came to Lu An's side.
Lu An turned and saw Qing standing in front of him.
Qing was sitting on another rock, and he did not look at Lu An, but quietly looked at Yao, who was surrounded by the crowd. Lu An did not know what Qing wanted to do, and did not know if he should speak.
After a while, Lu An saw that Qing did not have any intention to speak, so he did not say anything. Just like Qing, he looked at Yao in the distance.
At this moment, Qing suddenly opened her mouth.
"You like my sister?" Qing asked.
Lu An was stunned, and turned to look at Qing, and found that Qing was still not looking at him, but he still answered, "It's just between friends."
"Are you sure?" Qing asked again.
"I'm sure," Lu An said.
"That's good," Qing said. "Try not to provoke my sister in the future, her future is not what you can imagine, and you are not worthy of her. I don't object to you being friends, but if you go further, I will be the first to disagree. "
Lu An's eyes narrowed, and he smiled.
He finally knew why Yao left this home.
