Chapter 1624: Chapter 1621: Forcing Xu Wendong into Marriage

Canglan Yutian was the first to break the brief silence, letting out a couple of dry laughs, and saying with cupped hands, ”Xue Tu, my friend, earlier, we were truly blind and didn’t know that the Blood Clan harbored such a world-shaking blessing. Your esteemed son-in-law Xu Wendong has ascended with extraordinary prowess and is genuinely an unparalleled genius throughout the ages.”

As he spoke, his eyes rolled, and the tone suddenly changed, full of enthusiasm and expectation: ”As you see, the Immortal Realm is currently in urgent need of capable individuals, with Otherworldly Demons running rampant, the situation is dire, and our Canglan Immortal Clan has always embraced righteousness, solely hoping to protect this Immortal Realm.”

”Since Xu Wendong possesses such earth-shattering abilities, if he could forge deeper ties with our clan and join forces, wouldn’t it just be like adding wings to a tiger?”

Upon hearing this, Xue Tu’s face changed drastically, his brows furrowed tight, glaring with eyes wide open, and with a cold snort said: ”Canglan Yutian, are you out of your mind? Xu Wendong is already the son-in-law of my Blood Clan, this established matter, how dare you talk nonsense here, attempting to interfere?”

Canglan Yutian, however, was not angry, still wearing a face full of smiles, waving his hand, said: ”Don’t rush, my friend, listen to my words.”

”My intention is not to ruin Blood Clan’s affairs, but just thinking, if the esteemed deity could wed our Canglan Immortal Clan Holy Maiden, form a strong alliance, it would first, on one hand, bolster our strength against the demons; on the other hand, once the Immortal Realm is peaceful, the clans could support each other, forming a closer bond, which ultimately would be good for both public and private matters.”

Though spoken grandiloquently, the hidden calculation in his eyes was like an undercurrent beneath a quiet pool, blatantly obvious.

Mu Xizi, at the side, initially in a daze, still immersed in the shock of Xu Wendong becoming divine, upon hearing Canglan Yutian’s words, his eyes lit up suddenly, pondering secretly: This is indeed a perfect opportunity to balance the Blood Clan’s influence and elevate the Phantom Feather Clan’s status.

Then, he coughed lightly, stepped forward, unfolded his Folding Fan, waved it a few times, feigned composure, and said: ”Canglan friend’s words do have some reason.”

”Although our Phantom Feather Clan resides isolated in Ghost Abyss, our hearts are still concerned with the broader situation of the Immortal Realm, usually researching cultivation techniques, accumulating strength, just hoping to stand out in times of crisis.”

”Since Xu Wendong, the respectable god, demonstrates such extraordinary divine might, if he could join our Phantom Feather Clan and wed the Bright Pearl of our clan, Phantom Feather Clan would surely spare no effort, assisting the respected god in accomplishing great feats, and dedicating all of its efforts to the protective battle for the Immortal Realm.”

Xue Tu was so furious he trembled all over, gritting his teeth: ”You two are really shameless!”

”Xu Wendong and my daughter have a love as solid as gold, not something you can manipulate or use as a bargaining chip?”

”I advise you not to mention such absurd matters again, otherwise, don’t blame me for turning hostile!”

Canglan Yutian and Mu Xizi exchanged glances, seeing the reluctance in each other’s eyes.

Yet they also knew that they couldn’t completely fall out with Xue Tu at this moment; after all, Xu Wendong was the key, and if they provoked the Blood Clan and Xu Wendong’s disdain, it would be counterproductive.

Canglan Yutian promptly smiled to placate, comforting: ”My friend, calm down, consider our words hastily made in urgency, offensive remarks, please forgive us. But at present, with the turmoil in the Immortal Realm, our thoughts inevitably become impatient, essentially still considering repelling the demons as the primary concern.”

Mu Xizi also hastened to nod and concur: ”Exactly, exactly, we should unite in effort, jointly discuss strategies to fend off the enemy, as for other trivial matters, it’s not too late to discuss them later.”

But the four words ’discuss them later’ were said with a meaning-laden tone, clearly not completely dismissing the idea, just temporarily pressing it aside to seize the opportunity.

”You are really shameless!” Xue Tu looked at the two indignantly, knowing very well that they harbored the intent of having Xu Wendong wed their clan’s Holy Maiden.

It’s just that.

This matter, he couldn’t decide for Xu Wendong.

Only hope that Xu Wendong is a man who focuses on affection and is deeply passionate...

------

Time passed like a fleeting horse; in an instant, three days quietly went by.

One after another, other clan leaders led their clansmen in.

When each clan’s powerhouses stood firmly, Canglan Yutian and Mu Xizi traversed among the crowd, vividly narrating Xu Wendong’s world-shaking, legendary epic-like experiences.

In a moment, exclamations rose in waves, like surging tides, the eyes of everyone towards the void were filled with shock and envy.

At dusk this day, the setting sun was like blood, casting its glow on the edge of Penglai Immortal Island, outlining a picturesque and dreamy golden border.

Xu Wendong, accompanied by the Yan Clan’s powerhouses, entered this Minor World.

Thus, the Thirteen Immortal Clan powerhouses gathered together.

Like thirteen radiant star rivers converging, the spiritual power pressure interwoven and agitated, filled every inch of space, making this Minor World just like a boiling Spiritual Spring, infused with vast and fiery battle intent.

Xu Wendong stood tall, as upright as a Cang pine, a hint of gratifying smile on his face like the warm spring sun, quietly blooming, dispelling some of the weariness and haze from days of trespassing and maneuvering among the clans.

His gaze slowly swept over those present, his voice like a resounding bell, each word firm and powerful, breaking the moment of silence: ”Esteemed seniors, at this moment we gather here, like a sheathed sharp blade, a spark igniting a prairie, the time is ripe!”

”Although we are in a secluded haven, Biluo Immortal Continent is in dire straits, our compatriots are struggling in hardship, trapped in Biluo City, like cornered beasts, urgently needing rescue.”

Mentioning here, he paused slightly, his expression grave: ”In my opinion, we must use wisdom as a knife, strategy as a shield, thoughtfully plan a counterattack, find the demons’ vital point, and deliver a fatal blow, so as not to fail our Immortal Clan name, and save the common people from fire and water!”

As he finished speaking, Canglan Yutian looked like a long-prepared old strategist, smiling. That smile seemed warm yet concealed sharpness.

He stepped forward, cupped his hands in salute, showing complete courtesy, and said: ”Divine Venerable’s words are brilliant and piercing, I’m highly impressed.”

”However, on the eve of launching a counterattack, a notion emerged in my mind, daring to propose a suggestion, hoping Divine Venerable can spare the time to listen and give approval.”

Xu Wendong’s expression remained calm, neither arrogant nor impetuous, raised his hand in return salute, displaying a modest demeanor, and replied in a harmonious tone: ”Senior is virtuous and knowledgeable, having a proposal, naturally should speak freely, Mr. Xu listens attentively and hopes for senior’s guidance.”

Canglan Yutian heard this, his expression solemn, his gaze slowly sweeping around the surroundings, meeting the eyes of various clan leaders, that moment of eye contact, like a silent secret language, conveying hidden consensus.

Then, he coughed lightly, his expression grave, spoke passionately: ”Divine Venerable, the Thirteen Immortal Clans have a long history of inheritances, weathered storms, past glories persist, but now each has its concerns.”

”Time flows endlessly, the path of clan reproduction is arduous, sometimes due to disasters, sometimes past strife, now the population is increasingly scarce, and within clans, marriages often have hints of consanguinity, if this continues, the bloodline inheritance is like a fraying thread, hanging in the balance.”

Saying this, he looked up at Xu Wendong, his eyes full of earnest expectation: ”Therefore, I, along with the clan leaders, have deliberated and daringly requested Divine Venerable, with your extraordinary demeanor and divine prestige, to marry the Holy Maiden from each of our Immortal Clans.”

”Thus, first, it can reinforce the links between the clans with kinship ties, forming a united Anti-Demon Alliance.”

”On the other hand, it can also offer a glimmer of hope for the clans’ bloodline inheritance, injecting vitality and vigor, I wonder what your thoughts are?”
