Chapter 37
Actually, there was something else that Uncle Fu didn’t say.
That was, there were still people who refused to give up and were still coming to propose marriage one by one.
“Well, that explains…”
Su Chen smiled.
After listening to Uncle Fu’s explanation, he suddenly understood why the Ye family’s head would choose him out of so many people.
First of all, he was certain that Su Chen could not inherit the position of the Su family’s head.
Therefore, it was very difficult for Su Chen to take advantage of the Su family’s strength to annex the Ye family.
The second was Su Chen’s ident.i.ty.
The Great Mystery Sect was one of the top sects in the Dachu Dynasty, a well-deserved giant within a radius of ten thousand miles!
In front of such a behemoth, the Ye family was really nothing.
In the eyes of the Ye family’s head, Su Chen was destined to be striving for the position of the elder and even sect leader of the Great Mystery Sect and he did not think much of the Ye family.
Moreover, as long as Su Chen and Ye Ruxue got married, the Ye family would be able to rope in two major forces at once.
One was the Su Family, and the other was the Great Mystery Sect.
As long as Su Chen could become strong in the future, even if the Ye family declined in the future, outsiders would have to consider their own weight if they wanted to provoke the Ye family.
It could be said that the Ye family had made a brilliant move.
Two birds with one stone!
…
At the same time.
At the Ye family in Qingyang City.
In a quaint courtyard, a cry of surprise rang out, “I’m screwed…”
In the room.
A lady with delicate and refined features, smooth skin, long black hair that draped over her shoulders, and limpid eyes suddenly sat up from the bed.
At this moment, her chest was heaving up and down.
A thin layer of cold sweat seeped out of her smooth forehead as if something terrifying happened in her dream.
“The Immortal King Tribulation is indeed extraordinary… I failed at last!”
The lady muttered to herself.
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly frowned and looked at her hands in confusion.
Then, she raised her head and looked around the room. Her eyes were filled with shock as she muttered, “This… This is… This is my boudoir when I was young? I haven’t returned to Qingyang City for ten thousand years. Why am I here? Hmm? What is going on? What’s wrong with my cultivation at the peak of the Real Immortal Realm? Why is it only at the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Realm?”
The lady patted her head in confusion.
She clearly remembered that she was transcending the Immortal King Tribulation, but in the blink of an eye, how did she return to 10,000 years ago?
“Is… Is this an illusion?”
The lady stood up and went to the dressing table. Her slender fingers gently brushed over every item she used before.
The touch on her fingertips was telling her that everything was real!
This was not an illusion!
“I… Was I reborn?” the woman muttered to herself.
Everything in front of her was so real that she found it hard to believe.
However, no matter how hard it was to believe, this was the truth. She could only choose to accept it.
“Miss, are you alright?”
At this moment, the servant girl outside the door asked after hearing the movement in the room.
“I’m fine.”
The lady casually responded to the question.
The next moment, she seemed to have thought of something and asked again, “By the way, do you know what day it is today?”
“Today is April 1st!”
“Which year?”
“Uh…”
When the servant girl outside the door heard this, she froze on the spot and looked at the door with a strange expression.
But she still replied with patience, “The 1300th year of the Dachu Era!”
Dachu was the reign t.i.tle set up by the first-generation king of the Dachu Dynasty, and it had been used until now.
The Dachu Dynasty’s national strength was growing day by day, and its territory was vast and boundless.
Even the Great Mystery Sect did not dare to be too impudent under the governance of the Darchu Dynasty.
“The Dachu Era…”
When the lady in the room heard this, she stood up and went to the window. She looked up at the silver moon in the sky and muttered, “I didn’t expect to be reborn at this time. Fate is really playing tricks on me…”
The silver moonlight shone through the window onto the lady’s delicate body, covering her with a layer of silver-white gauze.
Her exquisite body looked flawless, just like the most perfect work of art in the world.
In terms of figure, even Mu Qingxue was inferior to her.
She stood quietly by the window, staring at the silver moon in the sky in a daze. No one knew what she was thinking about.
“Miss, it’s time for you to sleep… I heard that the eldest young master of the Su family might visit in a few days!”
The servant girl outside the door heard that the room had fallen into a dead silence, so she whispered a reminder.
“Hmm? The eldest young master of the Su family?”
When the lady in the room heard this, she was stunned again.
This familiar yet unfamiliar name completely awakened her old memories.
If she remembered correctly, she seemed to have had an engagement with this so-called eldest young master of the Su family when she was young.
However, later on, she obtained an earth-shattering opportunity, and because of this, her strength soared.
In an extremely short period of time, she rose from the number one prodigy in Qingyang City to one of the few peerless demons in the entire East Barrens!
It was also because of this that the eldest young master of the Su family trailed further behind her.
In the end, she was far beyond his reach.
She vaguely remembered that when she declared herself king, the eldest son of the Su Family had barely reached the Divine Sea Realm.
After that, although she didn’t break off the engagement with the eldest young master of the Su family, their engagement fizzled out.
Because both of them knew very well that the gap between them was like a natural chasm.
“If I remember correctly, the eldest young master of the Su family seems to be called… Su Chen, right?” the lady asked softly.
“Miss, your memory is really good. Master mentioned it to you once, and you completely remembered it.”
Outside the door, the servant girl’s flattering voice sounded.
The lady couldn’t help but laugh when she heard that. Then, she said, “You can leave first.”
“Yes, Miss.”
The servant girl quickly agreed. Then, her quiet footsteps sounded in the small courtyard.
“Since I was reborn, I might be able to make up for some of the regrets from my previous life.”
Hearing the footsteps of the servant girl gradually fading away, the lady came to the dressing table and slowly sat down.
With the help of the silver-white moonlight, she looked at her young self in the bronze mirror. She touched her face and muttered in a low voice.
She vaguely remembered that when her fiancé came to deliver the betrothal gift, he was only an outer disciple of the Great Mystery Sect who was in the eighth level of the Qi Gathering Realm.
His talent was not very bad or very good. Compared to a true prodigy, there was still a huge difference.
“If I remember correctly, in another two hundred years, the Great Mystery Sect will be destroyed.”
