"Kid, don't play coy after taking advantage! My granddaughter is such a beauty, and you think she's not good enough for you?"
Upon hearing this, Dragon Lord's tone immediately turned icy.
"It's not about being worthy or not, I just don't have that intention!"
Ye Feng retorted.
Meng Yiran was indeed very attractive, but damn, he was only thirteen years old. Wasn't it too early to talk about this kind of thing?!
"How can you have no such thoughts? Kid, I've been there before. I know exactly what's going through your mind when you're faced with such a beauty. There's nothing to be ashamed of. Whatever you kids want to do, this old man gives his permission!"
Dragon Lord said to Ye Feng with a different expression, even wiggling his eyebrows at him at the end.
"What the...??"
Ye Feng was dumbfounded.
This old guy would stoop to any level to trick him into joining the Meng family.
He'd sell his granddaughter without a moment's hesitation.
But he had absolutely no interest in this sort of thing right now!!
"Grandpa! What are you talking about!"
Meng Yiran's face turned red immediately when she heard such embarrassing words from her grandfather.
"Hahaha, it's nothing, it's nothing~"
Meng Shu laughed shamelessly.
Actually, on this continent, it's quite common for teenagers to get married.
"Gale-force Rush! The best plan is sometimes to retreat! Scram!!"
Taking advantage of the moment Dragon Lord burst into laughter, Ye Feng knew that if he didn't run now, he would really be unable to clear things up later.
"Kid, what the heck are you doing!!"
Dragon Lord was left stunned.
Snake Granny was stunned too.
This kid wasn't following the script at all, just running away without saying a word!!
"Thank you, Elder Dragon Lord, for protecting me last night. Unfortunately, I'm just not interested in this whole marriage and having kids thing right now. Please ask Meng Yiran to find someone else!"
Ye Feng left behind these words.
"Kid, you stop right there!!"
Dragon Lord wanted to give chase!!
He truly hadn't expected a man to resist the temptation of a beautiful woman.
He had laid it all out for him.
He could have anything he wanted.
And yet the other party just ran away!
What was the meaning of this?
"Old man, I'd advise you to save yourself some trouble. His heart obviously isn't set on Yi Ran!"
At this moment, Snake Granny spoke up.
"Sigh! If only I had been more careful. Who would have thought he would run away without even a word of warning!"
There were so many wolves dead here.
Dragon Lord wanted to chase after him, but considering how far the other had already run, and thinking about Yi Ran and his wife being here,
there would be trouble if another Ten Thousand Year Shadow Poison Wolf leading the Wolf Clan appeared.
Now all he could do was heave sighs of regret.
A posture full of remorse.
It truly was a futile effort last night.
"Grandpa, I guess he just isn't into me, and besides, who does this direct matchmaking anymore!"
Meng Yiran stared angrily at her grandfather.
Just moments ago, her grandpa had nearly said he wanted to hold a great-grandchild.
That would scare anyone off, right?
At this moment, Meng Yiran looked in the direction Ye Feng had just run off to.
She felt a bit excited but also a bit downhearted. In any case, it was complicated.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng had sprinted a hundred miles away.
Mama mia, that was really scary.
He almost had his handsome body violated!!
Good thing he was fast.
Now, to find a way out first.
After making sure it was safe, Ye Feng started looking for the way out.
"You sure are lucky, kid, to still be alive after all that. I've come to take you back!"
Suddenly, at this moment, Ye Feng heard a sound coming from behind him.
"Who??"
Ye Feng looked in the direction of the sound, and instantly became alert!!
"Who else would be so kindhearted as to come looking for you in the Aquipeia Forest to take you out?"
A captivating figure emerged.
Heavily made up with flaming red lips.
"Oh, it's Uncle Chrysanthemum. I wondered who it was."
When Ye Feng saw the newcomer, he immediately felt relieved.
This person was none other than Yue Guan.
Also known as the Chrysanthemum Douluo from Martial Soul Hall, a Titled Douluo.
This guy was even more effeminate than the character I saw in the anime back then.
A complete and utter hermaphrodite.
And he even liked flaming red lips!
"Come on, follow me back to Martial Soul Hall and I'll treat your injuries."
Chrysanthemum Uncle glanced at Ye Feng and then waved him over.
Signaling him to come closer.
Two years ago, Qian Renxue had secretly confessed her identity to Ye Feng and specifically wanted him to interact with Martial Soul Hall.
Therefore, some of the elders in Martial Soul Hall recognized Ye Feng.
They were also shocked by his astonishing talent, treating him as an important future part of Martial Soul Hall.
"Thank you, Uncle Chrysanthemum, but really, I don't need it. I'm not going to die; I just need to recover from my wounds," said Ye Feng.
With the System's help, his self-healing ability was now several times stronger than before.
He just looked a bit miserable at the moment.
In fact, he was already recovering.
Fully recovering was just a matter of time.
Of course, the most crucial point was that Uncle Chrysanthemum's embrace was a bit daunting!
I always feel it's a bit... you know!!
I'm so fragile.
What if!!
Don't even dare to think about it.
"If that's your decision, then I won't bother with you," said the Chrysanthemum Douluo as he looked at Ye Feng.
If it weren't for the secret order from the young master Qian Renxue, he would never have taken the trouble to come to the Aquipeia Forest.
And now, having to return empty-handed.
What am I even doing?
"Mm-hmm, I'll just trouble you to report back that I'm safe. I think it'll be a while before I can return," Ye Feng said to him.
Since I've come here,
it's only natural to take a walk in Soto City.
Later on, I'll pay a little visit to Shrek's place!
I believe my appearance will make for quite a spectacular expression on Yu Xiaogang's face!
"Up to you. But there is one thing I need to inform you of—the Empire is considering sending you to Tian Dou Royal Academy," said Chrysanthemum Douluo at that moment.
"Ah? Going to Tian Dou Royal Academy? Why?" Ye Feng was somewhat startled.
"I'm not clear on the specifics, but when you return, the young master will tell you. I'm just here to give you a heads-up," Chrysanthemum Douluo said.
"Uh, okay then!" Ye Feng shrugged.
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say, and I will pass on your message," said Uncle Chrysanthemum, and then, he disappeared completely.
Always vanishing without a trace.
Ye Feng, in the meantime, found a river and took a bath.
Fast forward to three days later.
That day, a handsome young man walked down the streets of Soto City.
"Soto City Great Soul Fighting Arena? Looks like a lively place!"
As Ye Feng walked, he soon arrived near the Soto City Great Soul Fighting Arena.
Having only seen it before, actually standing here now, I still couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
Maybe I'll find some time to go and have some fun tonight.
That's what Ye Feng thought.
Stopping by here to challenge them wouldn't be bad either.
Later, I could also take the opportunity to rough up the Shrek's competitors during the matches.
