4415 Duan Ling Tian’s Plan
“He did not suffer when he died,” Duan Ling Tian said with a sigh to w.a.n.g Luo Yu, “You were the only one he worried about before his death. His wish was for you to be free, and he entrusted me with this matter at that time even though he was not sure if I’d be able to escape from that supreme powerhouse. After I escaped, I searched for you and came to Blue Dawn City. After learning about your current situation, I decided to join the w.a.n.g clan and bring you away from Blue Dawn City. After that, I’ll look for a place for you to settle down where the w.a.n.g clan won’t be able to find you.”
w.a.n.g Luo Yu nodded slightly. Tears streamed down her cheeks again when she recalled that her brother was gone.
Duan Ling Tian continued to say, “I hope you’ll cooperate with me to fulfill your brother’s wish… I’ll arrange for us to leave the w.a.n.g clan.”
Duan Ling Tian did not have time to pity w.a.n.g Luo Yu. After all, he was trying to think of a plan for them to leave the w.a.n.g clan. The Supreme Elder of the w.a.n.g clan had high regard for him due to his high innate talent and comprehension skills, which revealed his great potential in becoming a supreme powerhouse in the future. As such, the supreme elder was very kind to Duan Ling Tian, hoping to ally with Duan Ling Tian through an arranged marriage. However, he knew the supreme elder’s att.i.tude would change once the supreme elder found out that he was only here to bring w.a.n.g Luo Yu away. After all, he was not yet a supreme
!!
“Rest a.s.sured, Brother Duan,” w.a.n.g Luo Yu said solemnly, “I won’t let my brother down. I’ll listen to your instructions.”
“That’s good,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile. Things would be easier if w.a.n.g Luo Yu cooperated with him. After a moment, he reminded her, “Do not tell anyone about this. Not a single person can know that my name isn’t Li Feng.”
“Don’t worry, Brother Duan. I understand,” w.a.n.g Luo Yun hastily said as she nodded. She trusted Duan Ling Tian completely. After all, he could have easily ignored her brother’s final wish. No one could hold him accountable, and there was no witness when he gave his promise to her brother. However, he chose to fulfill her brother’s final wish. This was enough to prove that he was a trustworthy man.
Duan Ling Tian nodded and said, “We’ll pretend like we have feelings for each other in front of the others, and I’ll ask for your hand in marriage from the clan. After that, we have two options. One, we can leave Blue Dawn City before the marriage takes place. Two, we’ll continue with the show, and you’ll be married to Li Feng, which is my fake ident.i.ty. There aren’t many risks with the first option, but it’ll sever all your ties to the w.a.n.g clan. There’s no risk with the second option since we can leave the clan under the pretext of going on our honeymoon. The w.a.n.g clan won’t suspect anything.” After a beat, he added, “I’ll cooperate with you regardless of which option you choose.”
In the end, Duan Ling Tian let w.a.n.g Luo Yu make the decision.
After a few moments, w.a.n.g Luo Yu said, “Brother Duan, let’s put on a show and leave the w.a.n.g clan naturally. I don’t want those who care for me in the clan to be worried…”
“Alright, we’ll go with the second option then,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “I’ll send you out now. You’re just as smart as your brother so I trust you know what to do later…”
Duan Ling Tian rose to his feet and sent w.a.n.g Luo Yu out of his courtyard. Earlier, he had cast a noise-canceling Formation so no one could eavesdrop on their conversation. With his current strength, it would be impossible even for the Clan Leader and the two Supreme Elders of the w.a.n.g clan to bypa.s.s his Formation and eavesdrop on them.
…
w.a.n.g Kui, the Clan Leader of the w.a.n.g clan, smiled when he saw Duan Ling Tian and w.a.n.g Luo Yu getting along as they walked out of the courtyard.
As for w.a.n.g Ming, he felt relieved when he saw w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s shy expression when she lowered her head. It was obvious to him that she liked Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian looked at w.a.n.g Luo Yu and said tenderly, “Why don’t you follow Elder w.a.n.g Ming back first… There’s something I need to discuss with Clan Leader w.a.n.g.”
w.a.n.g Luo Yu nodded slightly and replied, “Alright, Brother Li.”
After that, w.a.n.g Luo Yu walked toward w.a.n.g Ming with a bashful expression on her face.
After w.a.n.g Luo Yu left with w.a.n.g Ming, Duan Ling Tian looked at w.a.n.g Kui and said seriously, “Clan Leader w.a.n.g, I’d like to ask for her hand in marriage. If possible, I’d like to marry her in a month. Please send the invitations out to everyone connected with the w.a.n.g clan. I want the wedding to be as grand as possible. Meanwhile, I’d like to be an interim elder of the clan…”
w.a.n.g Kui was slightly surprised at how eager Duan Ling Tian was to marry w.a.n.g Luo Yu. However, when he recalled w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s bashful expression earlier, he thought that the duo must have liked each other. His smile widened as he said, “Young Master Li, you can count on me! The w.a.n.g clan will plan a grand wedding for you and Luo Yu in a month! Congratulations!”
w.a.n.g Kui was naturally overjoyed that Duan Ling Tian, who was almost comparable to a peerless top advanced Supreme G.o.d, would become part of the w.a.n.g clan soon. Someone with Duan Ling Tian’s talent and was not even 10,000 years of age was unprecedented in the history of the Divine Sand Realm after all.
‘Our clan will be in the spotlight soon because of this wedding! I must invite all the supreme powerhouses who were friends with our ancestor as well… Even if only one of them attends the wedding, it’ll be an honor. It won’t take long for our clan to return to its former glory with such a monstrous prodigy as our interim elder…’ w.a.n.g Kui thought to himself excitedly.
…
When w.a.n.g Luo Yu returned to her courtyard, she smiled broadly when she saw Ye Qiang Wei. She said, “Sister Qiang Wei, you should stay a little longer. I’ll be marrying Brother Li Feng in a month. I believe Uncle Ye will be attending our wedding as well. Why don’t you return with Uncle Ye after our wedding?”
Ye Qiang Wei looked at w.a.n.g Luo Yu in confusion after hearing these words. She asked, “Sister Luo Yu, what… what happened?”
Ye Qiang Wei could not figure out what happened to have led to such a drastic change in w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s att.i.tude.
