When King Edge heard this, his face was even more unsightly. This Lu Wentian was really a hypocrite! To be able to pass on the blame for his son's recklessness onto someone else—how shameless!
"Since your son doesn't wish to give my family face, I see no reason to entertain you further. Lu Wentian, consider the engagement proposal rejected."
"Don't be hasty, Edge," Lu Wentian was one of the few people who could call the king by his real name so casually. "Why don't we postpone this event until tomorrow? Lu Sin should be in the palace by then. We'll hear his side of the story."
Edge was still against the idea; he didn't want Lu Wentian and his people residing in the palace at all. But if he rejected the idea, it would be too obvious that he didn't want them here. He was so angry, but he still had to show some respect to the Demon Venerable. He reluctantly agreed, but it didn't mean he'd be persuaded to accept the union between their two families.
