When he returned to the Heaven Dou Academy, a group of people suddenly surrounded him for some reason.

Fang Xuan stared blankly at them. "What's going on? Do you want to fight?"

This group was Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and others. When they rushed over and surrounded him, Fang Xuan thought they were there to cause trouble.

"Fang Xuan, what have you been doing? Why are you only back now? Everyone in the academy has been looking for you like crazy" Yu Tianheng said.

"Looking for me?"

Fang Xuan's heart skipped a beat. His brows furrowed as he had a bad feeling about this. It can't be.

Could it be that the Martial Soul Hall has found out about what happened that night?

He was only a mere Soul Ancestor and the Spirit Hall had lost more than ten powerful individuals, including a Titled Douluo, that day. No one would suspect him, no matter who it was.

Just as Fang Xuan was puzzled.

"Hey, what are you standing there for? Let's go" Dugu Yan said.

"His Majesty has been looking for you for three days now." Ye Lingling explained.

"Uh … the Emperor is looking for me?"

Fang Xuan was stunned. He didn't know what was going on.

… …

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, in the main hall.

Fang Xuan stood in the middle of the hall, confused. He looked at Emperor Xue Ye, who was sitting on the throne. He didn't know why the Emperor was looking for him.

But from the looks of it, the Emperor was in a good mood. He was happily chatting with Ning Fengzhi.

The Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasures Glazed School had a good relationship. The Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi were good friends as well. The Seven Treasures Glazed School was the only one of the three upper sects that supported the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

The two of them lowered their voices. Fang Xuan couldn't hear them clearly and didn't know what they were talking about. He didn't dare to speak casually and stayed quietly in the hall.

After about ten minutes, the Emperor and Ning Fengzhi stopped talking and turned to look at Fang Xuan with a kind smile.

Fang Xuan shuddered as a bad feeling suddenly welled up in his heart.

"What are these two old men trying to do?"

Under the intense gaze, he couldn't help but feel a little flustered. He felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Fang Xuan, your performance in the competition was excellent and was appreciated by Sect Master Ning. The two of us have discussed this for many days and decided to arrange a marriage for you"

The Emperor spoke with an amiable smile.

"Engagement?" Fang Xuan was stunned.

"Yes, you are my son. You are fifteen years old this year and can be considered a talent with outstanding strength. Sect Master Ning has a beloved daughter who has just turned twelve. She is smart and beautiful"

The Emperor stroked his beard and smiled.

"The two of you are about the same age and are outstanding geniuses of the younger generation. You are a perfect match, so Sect Master Ning and I have decided to arrange a marriage for the two of you"

"Ning Rongrong? Engagement … "

The corner of Fang Xuan's mouth twitched. What the hell is going on?

"Haha, Fang Xuan, we have all seen your strength. Rongrong is a gifted support-type soul master and has the continent's number one support-type martial soul, the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda. If the two of you are together, you will complement each other and your strength will increase. In the future, you will make a name for yourself on the continent."

Ning Fengzhi's handsome face revealed a smile as he nodded at Fang Xuan. He was very satisfied with his future son-in-law.

"This …"

Fang Xuan's expression stiffened. He wanted to refuse so that the engagement would not be broken in the future.

This trick is going to be played out soon …

Or pretend to agree and then secretly divorce the little witch?

No.

No matter what, it will inevitably lead to endless trouble and trouble.

What a headache!!

You are the Emperor and the Sect Master. Do you have anything better to do? Why are you playing matchmaker? Under the bright eyes of the Snow Night Emperor and Ning Fengzhi, Fang Xuan braced himself and said, "Your Majesty, Sect Master Ning, I … don't want to get married now"

Ridiculous, I haven't had enough of my beautiful single life, how can I get married?

On the bed, let her sleep soundly.

Fang Xuan was not mentally prepared to share his bed with someone else. Of course, if Ning Rongrong was willing to sleep on the floor, he could reluctantly agree for the time being.

In the future, he would find a chance to kick her away …

"Who told you to get married now"

The Emperor glared at Fang Xuan and said, "Rongrong is only twelve years old now. Even if you want to, I don't want to. Now, I'm just setting up this marriage for you. When the two of you are adults, Sect Master Ning and I will prepare a grand wedding for you"

The smile on Ning Fengzhi's face did not diminish. He said calmly, "Haha, Fang Xuan, don't worry. When you and Rongrong get married, I will prepare a thick dowry for her"

Dowry?!

Fang Xuan's eyes lit up. He almost threw away his bottom line.

Oh my, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect is so rich. They must have prepared a lot of dowry for Ning Rongrong.

Why not wait until I get her dowry and then think of a way to break up happily?

It's fine if you don't want your wife, but this dowry …

You'd be a bastard if you didn't earn money.

With the wealth of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, this dowry would be worth millions of gold soul coins. Who knows, I might even get a few soul bones.

Furthermore, looking at the situation today, the Emperor and Ning Fengzhi had already decided.

Fang Xuan had to agree even if he didn't want to.

Since that was the case, he might as well agree first. He would think of a way to break off the engagement later.

"Okay, I agree."

After thinking carefully for a while, Fang Xuan finally nodded seriously.

"Haha …"

Seeing this, the Emperor and Ning Fengzhi looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh in satisfaction.

… …

By the time he got home, the sky was already completely dark.

Fang Xuan sat cross-legged on his bed and quietly opened the system panel to check the rewards he had received over the past few days.

After killing the Soul King and 11 Soul Ancestors, Fang Xuan gained a lot. Now, he had 21000 Sword Draws, which he could squander to his heart's content.

He rubbed his chin and thought about it seriously for a while. He decided to use 11,000 draws to draw the sword for the lottery to obtain Soul Rings and attribute points. The remaining 10,000 draws would be used to strengthen the weapons and enhance the attributes of the two swords.

Thinking of this, Fang Xuan couldn't wait to start the lottery and strengthening journey …
