Chapter 1: Crossing into Another World

  Although thinking of these things in his heart, his hands and mouth didn't slow down at all.

  "Brother Cangming, come with me and we'll talk inside!"

  It's also possible that they felt it wasn't a big deal, so the group followed Yudou's lead and walked into the Yū household.

  Because he was thinking of Yu Ling in his heart, Cang Ye didn't have the mood to appreciate these so-called scenery. He walked along with his head down, following Yu Tong.

  However, an unusual phenomenon caught the attention of the master of the Feather Family. That was the current position of Cang Ye!

  No matter whether it's among the major sects or within the aristocratic families, rules are a must to follow. Some small details often reflect larger aspects. For example, the current position of Cang Ye.

  Normally, Cang Ye should have walked behind those elders. This was determined by the family's status. But now he is following only after Cang Yun and Cang Ming! Looking back at the eyes of the clan elders who followed, there was not a hint of dissatisfaction. This phenomenon was worth Yudi carefully pondering...

  It seems like there's been some kind of misunderstanding!

  Soon, a group of people walked into the living room, and after the two families sat down, they also began to chat slowly.

  Cang Ye knew that these were necessary formalities. If they had expressed their intentions as soon as they met, it would have been somewhat inappropriate.

  Just as the two families were getting heated, and Cang Ming wanted to take advantage of the situation to express his intentions, a guard from the Yu family came in and whispered a few words to Yu Tong. The master of the Yu family's face suddenly changed, and he stood up and was about to leave.

  "Brother Qingming, I'll be right back. We have a distinguished guest arriving." After saying that, he quickly left the hall, leaving behind the disciples of the Cang family looking at each other in confusion.

  "I don't know what kind of person's identity can compare to that of the clan elder. Could it be an elder from the imperial family?" An elderly man couldn't help but mutter to himself upon seeing this situation.

  It's no wonder that there are such ideas, the identity of the four major family heads is so noble! Among the nearly one billion people in the entire Flame Heaven Empire, those who can surpass them in status, except for the current Holy One, are some members of the royal family and the older generation of various families.

  It is worth noting that the heads of the four major families, although they do not hold any official positions in the empire, their influence is fundamentally unmatched by those so-called officials!

  Although the elder's guess was incorrect, the identity of the newcomer was indeed going to suppress Cang Ming's head, because this was none other than Kun family's Supreme Elder, Kun Yan!

  The strong one of the Lingzhu, plus the identity of the Kun family's Taishang elder. It is indeed worth it for the Yu family to put Cangming aside and go to greet him personally.

  Before long, the Kun family also arrived in the great hall.

  Looking at the figure behind Kun Yan, Cang Ye slightly furrowed his brow. The figure was none other than Kun Shi Ting, the young master of the Kun family who had been toyed with by Cang Ye during the New Year's grand comparison!

  Saw the gifts behind Kun's family and that middle-aged man who looked a bit like Kunshi Pavilion. Cang Ye smiled slightly, it seems this person is not giving up!

  After the Qun family entered the hall, they naturally noticed the Cang family was here. They were slightly taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered. The two groups stood up and exchanged greetings, regardless of their intentions, they had to save face.

  After both sides sat down, Yu Tong and the two parties exchanged a few pleasantries before directly asking about their intentions. As expected by Cang Ye, Kun Shi Ting was indeed there to propose a marriage! However, it was unexpected that they were able to invite Kun Yan Lao Zu, but he didn't mind much. Not just him, even Cang Ming didn't have any objections, despite his own family's elder not being present. But the one who came was an even more terrifying existence than their elder! Moreover, this matter directly concerned his future happiness, and if anything went wrong, this young master would definitely make a big fuss. Thinking of this, Cang Ming's smile grew brighter. Anyway, it wasn't at their Cang family, so let this young master be as happy as he wanted! It was believed that even the empire's elder couldn't do anything to this young master. After all, in his household, there was an existence that the entire empire couldn't afford to offend!

  "To be honest, Young Master Yu Tong. I also came this time for the sake of my nephew's marriage proposal. I didn't expect to run into the Kun family members. But I wonder which Miss Yu that Young Master Kun Xian wants to marry?" Since the Kun family has made their intentions clear, the Cang family naturally wouldn't hide anything either and explained their own intentions as well.

  "Uncle, I've come this time for Miss Yu Ling. Miss Ling and I share a deep connection on Qingxia Mountain, and our families' status is also comparable. I hope you can help me out, Uncle." With the humility of a junior, he pleaded with Cang Ming, hoping he wouldn't intervene. It's not like it couldn't be done. If he agreed, that would be fine, but if he didn't, it would show just how small-minded this family was! They couldn't even accept a humble request from a junior. If it were someone else, Cang Ming might have let it slide, considering the influence of the Kun family. But this matter couldn't be ignored. Even if he himself could let it go, the young master in front of him wouldn't.

  Although he lost the game shamefully during the big comparison, Kunshi Ting didn't think it was due to his opponent's strength. And this time, Cang Ye was able to invite Cang Ming to come and propose, probably because his father had already compromised with the family. And this is the condition of compromise!

  "Like-minded, haha. I didn't expect to see Kun Xian's nephew here, but I've also heard that our family's Ye Ye and Miss Yu Ling are like-minded too. Are there two Yu Lings in Qing Xia Mountain?" Although Cang Ming was smiling, his words were not funny at all.

  Even the master of the Yu family furrowed his brow. Today, Cang Ming was indeed a bit strange. These words were spoken, and it's likely that they would offend the Kun family.

  As expected, after Cang Ming finished speaking, the faces of the Kun family changed greatly.

  It's said that "hearts are in sync", but this is just a euphemism. But when Cang Ming says it out loud, it's simply a blatant slap in the face!

  "Hmph, Master Cang. Do you think that every time a Kun family disciple marries a wife, your Cang family needs to intervene?" At this point, the eldest elder of the Kun family could no longer sit still. Originally seated in the main seat, he had not planned to interrupt these younger generations, but who would have thought that Kun Shi Ting was the most promising young talent of the Kun family? For this reason, Kun Yan stepped out and put aside his old face to act as a matchmaker for this disciple, but unexpectedly, Master Cang came up with such a slap-in-the-face remark. Now he could no longer sit still either.

  "Ancestor is serious, Cang Ming just spoke for the sake of the matter. Coincidentally, I came this time also to propose a marriage for the younger generation of my Cang family. According to Ye Ye, during their time on the mountain, he and Yu Ling Miss got along very well. And Ye Ye has a kind heart, so he came to make this good match happen for the younger generation of our family!"

  Listening to Cang Ming's words, Kun Yan felt very uncomfortable. Like Cang Ming, if the matchmaker was another junior, he might have given up too. After all, offending a family that is even stronger than his own side for the sake of a younger generation is extremely unwise. In this world, interests are eternal, and sacrificing the so-called happiness of a younger generation for the sake of interest doesn't count as anything.

  But now it's different. Not to mention his own talents, at just 15 years old he condensed a flower, surpassing even the so-called number one genius of the Cang family, Cang Morin. This person who is engaged to him can't afford to let him give up either!

  Yueling, this young girl's talent is something that all the disciples who have returned to Qingxia Sect are aware of how excellent it is. Moreover, behind her stands a Spirit King!

  The Spirit King is a being of nobility that surpasses even the entire empire. Being able to associate with such a being makes it worthwhile, even if it means offending these aristocratic families.

  "Is the master of the Cang family really going to compete with my Kun family for this daughter-in-law?" He released some of the aura inside his body, slightly pressuring Cang Ming, hoping he would know better and retreat.

  "Our ancestors said that, when did our Cang family ever rob someone's daughter-in-law? Now it's not even certain if she is your Kun family's daughter-in-law! Such things should be decided by Miss Yu Ling herself!" Feeling the intimidating aura, Cang Ming also got a bit angry. This was simply trying to use power to suppress people! He glanced at Cang Ye beside him and honestly, if he didn't know this person's strength, he would probably have retreated already.

  "Hmph! Marriage is a matter of parental orders and matchmaker's words. She can't let a little girl like her make the choice!" Hearing Cang Ming's retort, Kun Yan really got angry. He also knew about the rumors between Cang Ye and Yu Ling. If he let Yu Ling choose for herself, what would happen to the Kun family? So, in a fit of anger, he blurted out all those words he usually kept hidden.

  However, after leaving the house, he realized that something was wrong. As expected, looking at Cang Ming's gloating expression and the dark faces of the Yu family members, Kun Yan also felt a bit out of control.

  What a person Yu Ling is, her innate talent is already enough to make countless people amazed. Not to mention the existence behind her. Ordinary people really don't dare to say that they forced her. But now Kun Yan is so "straightforward and unreserved", it's really surprising to everyone!

  But the words have already been spoken, and whether it's the dignity of the peak master or the majesty of the old ancestor, they can't be taken back. So, Kunyan shifted his gaze to Yuanting.

  "What does the master of the Feather Family mean, speak out!" To be honest, Yu Tong really didn't know what to do for the better. Both sides were people he didn't want to offend. Although he could slightly influence this young lady's opinion because of his parents' relationship with her family, in major matters, it was still difficult for him to handle.

  Who would have known that this young lady was so spoiled on Qingxia Mountain? If she had a falling out with her family and left in a huff, the Yu family would truly have lost both their wife and their soldiers. Not only would they have offended the family they wanted to form an alliance with, but they would also have lost a genius.

  "Ancestors, I really can't make a decision on this matter! Ling'er's identity is clear to everyone, so it's better for her to decide for herself in such situations." After some thought, Yu Tang decided to let Yu Ling decide for herself, although the outcome was bound to be choosing the Cang family's side.

  This Cang Ye may not be well-known, but in Yu Tong's eyes, he is just not famous, not like those people said that his strength has declined. However, this child can still remain calm in the face of such a grand scene, and I'm afraid his trump card won't be lower than Kun Shi Ting's! Both families' choices are the same, previously opposed to Yu Ling and Cang Ye's marriage in the family because they hadn't seen Cang Ye himself, nor did they expect Cang Ming would come over personally. The rumors heard before said that Cang Yun had completely fallen out with the Cang family, but now the two families get along well! Although rumors can't be fully trusted, they also can't be ignored. This change must have occurred because of the young man in front of us.
