Chapter 204: Chapter 202 Engagement (1)

After speaking, Yi Hong’s imposing figure trembled, and a dazzling Gang Qi shot out from his body. He then leapt forward and slashed at the snow pillar with his bare hands.

Upon seeing this, Yan Rufeng was shocked, "What’s he doing? Could he be trying to kill Tang Yue with his bare hands? No, Tang Yue can’t die now..."

"Grandpa, spare him!" Yan Rufeng hurriedly shouted.

"Boom..."

Light exploded, illuminating the night sky. The burst of Gang Qi caused the snow pillar to shatter, and Tang Yue was blasted back, coughing up blood.

"Puh puh..."

"Such potent power, is this the strength unleashed by a Martial Arts Daoist?"

Yan Rufeng exclaimed, thinking to himself, "Even though it’s just the first level of the domineering body, Yi Hong could injure an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator with his bare hands. Although Tang Yue was a bit wounded, he truly is a whole major realm above Grandpa Yi. It’s totally unexpected that the power unleashed by martial arts is this strong and terrifying..."

Yi Hong walked over to Tang Yue with his hands behind his back, sternly saying, "San Gouzi, how does it feel?"

"Ptooey..."

Tang Yue spat out a mouthful of blood and said disdainfully, "Yi Hong, you old dog, you still don’t dare to kill me!"

"Heh heh..."

Yi Hong sneered, "San Gouzi, you think too highly of yourself. If it weren’t for my grandson stopping me in time, you wouldn’t be standing here talking to me!"

"Ha ha..."

Tang Yue laughed maniacally.

"Yi Hong, old dog, if you have the guts, kill me!"

"Hmph!"

Yi Hong snorted coldly, "San Gouzi, although I don’t know why Rufeng stopped me from killing you, if I cripple you, he shouldn’t blame me." His tightly clenched fist suddenly opened, sending an invisible wave of Gang Qi crashing into Tang Yue’s chest.

"Thud..."

With a muffled sound, Tang Yue’s body flew out like a running bullet.

"Giggle..."

Yi Mu laughed, looking at Yi Hong with admiration, "Grandpa, I gave it my all when fighting Tang Yue, but you defeated him with just one move and crippled his cultivation."

Yan Rufeng released his divine sense to check and found that Tang Yue had indeed been crippled by Yi Hong.

"Heh heh..."

Yi Hong laughed, "Mumu, the reason Grandpa is this strong is all thanks to your Brother Rufeng!"

"Brother Rufeng?"

Yi Mu turned to look at Yan Rufeng, saying, "Grandpa, are you referring to Young Master Yan?"

Yi Hong suddenly grew serious.

"Mumu, from now on, you are not allowed to call him Young Master Yan. Grandpa doesn’t like it."

"Eh..."

"Grandpa, why is that?" Yi Mu asked in confusion.

"Because he is now Grandpa’s grandson. Why do you think?" Yi Hong laughed.

"Wow..."

Yi Mu exclaimed, "So Young Master Yan is one of the Yi Family members!"

Yi Hong thought to himself, "I can’t tell if this silly girl really doesn’t know or is just pretending..."

"Mumu, what are you thinking? When I say Young Master Yan is my grandson, I mean he is my adopted grandson. Call him brother!" Yi Hong pretended to be angry.

Yi Mu seemed a bit disappointed, thinking, "I never imagined Young Master Yan would become my brother..."

"Mumu, what are you thinking? If you don’t call him Brother Rufeng, Grandpa will get mad."

"Oh..."

Yi Mu lowered her head, pouting, and unwillingly called out, "Brother Rufeng!"

Then, Yi Mu stepped back, stood beside her mother, clung tightly to her mother’s arm, and lowered her head, saying nothing more.

Yan Rufeng didn’t expect Yi Mu would react this way, feeling a bit awkward. He quickly said, "Grandpa, let’s go check on Tang Yue. We can’t let him die; otherwise, we’ll become sworn enemies with Dragon Abyss Sect."

"Alright then, Grandpa will go with you to check on San Gouzi..."

After Yi Hong and Yan Rufeng left, Yi Zhantian walked over to Yi Mu, questioning, "Mumu, just now when Grandpa asked you to call Young Master Yan brother, do you realize how reluctant you seemed? You made Young Master Yan feel awkward!"

"Humph!"

Yi Mu snorted coldly, "Father, what is there to be awkward about? It’s embarrassing for me to call him brother."

"Sigh..."

Yi Zhantian sighed deeply.

"Mumu, it seems you still don’t understand what your Grandpa means!"

Yi Mu’s eyes widened, "What does Grandpa mean?"

"Heh heh..."

Yi Mu’s mother laughed, "Silly daughter, your Grandpa wants you to get closer to Young Master Yan!"

"Humph!"

"I don’t want to get that close to him."

Yi Mu seemed to understand the meaning, blushing, and hurriedly ran toward the inner courtyard.

"Sigh..."

Yi Zhantian watched Yi Mu’s back, sighing, "Young Master Yan is so likable. If you don’t get closer to him now, you’ll regret it when it’s too late."

"Sigh..."

Yi Mu’s mother sighed as well, saying, "Brother Tian, Mumu is still indifferent to Young Master Yan. Do you think we should find an opportunity to explain it to her?"

"Yes!"

"Sister Fang, I’ll leave this matter to you. The sooner we tell Mumu our thoughts, the better. Otherwise, it might be too late when they head to Dragon Abyss Sect tomorrow!"

"Brother Tian, don’t worry. I’ll explain it to Mumu right away."

Yi Mu, who had arrived at her boudoir, sat by the table, resting her chin on her hand, staring blankly at the candlelight, thinking, "Get closer to Young Master Yan. Could they mean they want me to..."

"Mumu, are you asleep?"

Yi Mu heard her mother’s voice, got up, and replied, "Not yet!"

Yi Mu opened the door, and the mother and daughter sat down.

Yi Mu asked, "Mother, why aren’t you asleep?"

"Daughter, you’re going to Dragon Abyss Sect with Rufeng tomorrow. There’s something I need to explain to you, or I won’t sleep well."

"Mother, what exactly is it?"

"Daughter, it’s about you and Rufeng."

"What could there be between him and me?"

"Heh heh!"

"Silly child, if something were to happen between you and Rufeng, I’d be delighted!"

"Uh..."

Yi Mu was surprised, "Mother, did I hear you right? You actually said that!"

Yi Mu suddenly understood what her mother meant, her face blushing, "Mother, how could Young Master Yan be interested in your daughter? Besides, I’m still just a child!"

"Still a child? You’ll be an adult after the New Year. Besides, in the Yi Family, children your age, whether male or female, are already engaged. Yet you are the only one without even a suitor. Your father and I are so worried!"

"Psh..."

Yi Mu said disdainfully, "Mother, look at your daughter. Not only am I beautiful enough to topple nations, but I’m also a cultivator. I am not worried about finding a husband."

Yi Mu stood up and twirled in front of her mother, smiling, "Mother, you see, any young master who marries your daughter will be blessed for eight generations!"
