#150 - What the Elders Think
“Pfft!”
The Second Elder had just taken a gulp of strong liquor when he spat it out upon hearing this, his old eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at the Third Elder beside him, questioning, “Old Third, have you gone mad? Don't go playing matchmaker here!”
“What do you mean, playing matchmaker? I'm doing this for Yuehua and the Clear Sky School's sake!” The Third Elder retorted, pausing before continuing, “Besides, think about it, this Crown Prince's talent is so high. He's only in his twenties and already a level sixty-four War Spirit Emperor. His talent surpasses even Tang Hao back in the day.
Tang Hao became a Titled Douluo at forty-four. I estimate that the Crown Prince will likely become a Titled Douluo before forty.
Moreover, he's the Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire. Yuehua will definitely be happy if she marries him! And based on my observations at the banquet, I noticed Yuehua was stealing glances at the Crown Prince from time to time. She might be interested in that kid!
After all, Yuehua became a Soul Master with that kid's help, and he saved her life. It's perfectly normal for Yuehua to have feelings for him!”
“Hmm, maybe Old Third, you're right…”
The Second Elder recalled that, although he hadn't paid full attention to Tang Yuehua at the banquet, he had glanced at her a few times and noticed that the girl was indeed secretly looking at Davis.
“But Old Third, even if what you say is true, and Yuehua has feelings for the Crown Prince, it's still a case of a maiden's heart and unrequited love. The Crown Prince might not be interested in Yuehua, after all, she's already in her thirties!”
The Second Elder thought of Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing, and continued, “And you all probably know the Star Luo royal family's rules. Those two Nether Cat girls are likely the Crown Prince's fiancées. Aren't you trying to make Yuehua a mistress, or even a concubine? Old Third, stop joking around!”
“A maiden's heart and unrequited love? Hehe, I don't think so!” The Third Elder chuckled, saying, “I think the Crown Prince might also be interested in Yuehua, otherwise, why would he give such a precious Geng Metal Fruit to Yuehua?
As for being a concubine… the Crown Prince will become the Star Luo Emperor in the future. Since ancient times, which emperor hasn't had multiple wives and concubines, with beauties as numerous as the clouds? One more Yuehua wouldn't be too much, and Yuehua, as the daughter of the eldest brother, is perfectly suited for that kid.”
At this point, the Third Elder's expression suddenly darkened, and he sighed deeply, saying, “To be honest, I only came up with this idea after hearing the Crown Prince's words during the day.
Yuehua has sacrificed too much for the Clear Sky School. She's just a girl with level nine Soul Power, yet she's responsible for the Clear Sky School's daily expenses and various supplies. This is supposed to be something we men should be doing, but now it's entrusted to Yuehua.
It pains me as her uncle! If the eldest brother knew in the afterlife, he would surely be heartbroken to see Yuehua working so hard, right?
Now that the Clear Sky School is about to be unsealed, and Yuehua has someone she likes, I want to help Yuehua find happiness. Second Brother, brothers, what do you say?”
“This…”
The Second Elder gave the Seventh Elder a disdainful look and said sternly, “Seventh Brother, if you dare say such outrageous words again, see how I'll deal with you!”
“Oh.” The Seventh Elder scratched his head awkwardly, then said, “Then what should we do?”
“In my opinion, how about this.” The Sixth Elder spoke up in a timely manner, “Didn't the Crown Prince send a letter to the Supreme Emperor and Empress of the Star Luo Empire, asking them to come to the Clear Sky School to hold an alliance ceremony?
We might as well discuss with the two elders about betrothing Yuehua to the Crown Prince and forming a marriage alliance with the Star Luo Empire.
The Supreme Emperor of the Star Luo Empire wouldn't disagree with a granddaughter-in-law delivered to their doorstep. When the Supreme Emperor gives the order, even if the Crown Prince is unwilling, he'll have to marry Yuehua.
As for her position? Yuehua is, after all, a latecomer and doesn't necessarily have to be the Empress, but as long as the Crown Prince can respect Yuehua and give her happiness, that's enough.
In this way, Yuehua's happiness can be guaranteed, and our relationship with the Star Luo Empire will be further strengthened. What do you think?”
“I think it's feasible!”
“Me too!”
“Seconded!”
“Then let's do it this way.” The Second Elder made the final decision, then added, “However, we also have to ask Yuehua what she thinks. Otherwise, if we're wrong and she actually doesn't like the Crown Prince, then we'll have messed things up.”
“I agree, then let's do it!”
… …
A week passed quickly. During this time, Davis stayed in the Clear Sky School, meditating and cultivating. After being intercepted and assassinated by Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo, Davis knew that in this world where strength is respected, one's own strength is always the first priority.
He can't expect Titled Douluo to protect him every time. He can only rely on himself!
After the battle with Tang Xiao, Zhu Zhuqing broke through her bottleneck, her Soul Power reached level forty-four, and her strength improved further.
And the next day, the five elders secretly found Tang Yuehua for a talk, asking her if she had feelings for Davis.
The newest and fastest novel is at 69shuba!
Isn't it said that the Clear Sky School is a bunch of roughnecks? Can such questions be asked directly?
When asked this, Tang Yuehua was at a loss, her pretty face seemed to be bleeding, and she didn't know what to say in a flustered manner.
However, the five elders have lived for so long, and they are not brainless. They still have some ability to observe words and expressions. Seeing Tang Yuehua's face blushing, they roughly understood what she meant.
They directly told Tang Yuehua about the matter of marrying her to Davis in order to deepen the alliance with the Star Luo Empire.
Tang Yuehua's small face turned even redder when she heard this. At this time, the woman's blush was better than everything. She didn't say anything, but it seemed like she said everything.
In the end, Tang Yuehua didn't explicitly agree, but she didn't refuse either. From that time on, Tang Yuehua frequently appeared beside Davis under the pretext of guiding cultivation, and even had some physical contact with him.
During this period, Li Hu also successfully arrived at the palace and told Dai Pojun everything.
After learning that Davis had found the Clear Sky School and persuaded Sect Master Tang Xiao to form an alliance with the Star Luo Empire, Dai Pojun and others were shocked, followed by great joy.
With the addition of the Clear Sky School, the strength of the Star Luo Empire would undoubtedly be even stronger.
Since Dai Pojun still had to deal with affairs in the court and it was inconvenient to leave, Dai Tianxing and Zhu Lingyun went to the Clear Sky School to form a blood alliance with the Clear Sky School.
