Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 377 Grandma Ming: You don't want Grandma to be ashamed to face our ancestors after she dies, do you?

Mingyue's face paled even more, her expression full of grievance, and she protested softly:

“Grandma, Mingyue doesn’t mean to go against the family tradition, but you know Dugu Ming’s character.”

How could Mingyue possibly like someone like that?!

Everyone in Wushuang City knows that Dugu Ming, relying on his status as the young city lord, is extremely arrogant and domineering, indulging in sensual pleasures all day long, and is by no means a good match for her.

Many women from two families in the city have been poisoned by Dugu Ming. Although this matter has not spread, it is because Dugu's side has forcibly suppressed these matters.

But as a member of the Ming family, Mingyue naturally knew all about these things.

Therefore, in her opinion, Dugu Ming was not good enough for her at all.

To master the art of "Love in a Fallen City," the essential condition is that two people who love each other deeply and are of one mind and soul can both master and bring forth the "Love in a Fallen City."

Mingyue felt nauseous just hearing Dugu Ming's name; how difficult it would be to make her fall in love with him.

"Now is not the time for you to act out. Although Dugu Ming is not a good person, he is the only son of the Dugu family. Only by uniting with him can you master the 'Love of the Fallen City'!"
Have you forgotten the duty of the Ming family? To protect Wushuang City is our inescapable responsibility!
If necessary, we must even sacrifice our own lives to accomplish this, do you understand?!

Grandma Ming's expression was extremely stern and her attitude was extremely domineering; she only wanted Mingyue to do things according to her will.

"Grandma, I really don't want to be with him..." Mingyue looked pitiful, still trying to plead her case.

But before he could finish speaking, he was forcibly interrupted by Ming's maternal grandmother.

"No need to say more, there's no room for discussion on this matter. You have to like it whether you like it or not!"

Grandma isn't discussing this with you; she's telling you that you have to do this, otherwise Wushuang City will be destroyed, and I, Grandma, will be the eternal sinner of Wushuang City!
"Grandma is too old to face the ancestors of the Ming family!"

Grandma Ming paused for a moment, then said earnestly, "Mingyue, you are my good granddaughter."

You wouldn't want Grandma to be ashamed to face our ancestors after she dies, would you?

"Grandma, I..." Mingyue was no longer able to refute.

She was raised by her maternal grandmother from a young age, and they share a deep bond.

Mingyue really didn't want to put Mingjia's maternal grandmother in such a difficult position.

Finally, she gently bit her almost bloodless lips, closed her eyes, and as tears streamed down her face, she said:

"I'll listen to you."

Upon hearing these words, Mingyue seemed to instantly lose all her energy and spirit, and could only swallow back her pain no matter how much she was suffering.

"That's my good child!" Grandma Ming nodded in satisfaction.

Soon, Dugu Yifang brought Dugu Ming to the Ming family.

Dugu Ming was stunned the moment he saw Mingyue's face.

"What a nice view!"

Dugu Ming had seen countless women, but only today did he understand what a truly stunning beauty was.

Compared to Mingyue, all the girls he had previously played with were just a bunch of ordinary, vulgar women!
The thought that such a stunning beauty would be his woman was unbearable.

Dugu Ming's face immediately lit up with a smile, and his eyes, which had been dulled by wine and women, brightened considerably at that moment.

"Ming'er, from now on you will cultivate with Mingyue day and night. You don't have much time, so you must successfully master 'Love of the Fallen City'!"

Dugu Yifang nodded slightly to the Ming family's maternal grandmother, then patted Dugu Ming on the shoulder, his face full of high hopes as he spoke.

"Don't worry, Father, I have fallen in love with Mingyue, and I will surely succeed soon!"

Dugu Ming naturally knew how powerful the martial arts inherited by the Martial Saint were, and that the condition for cultivating them was that the two people were in love.

He was certain that he had fallen in love with Mingyue at first sight.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yifang's lips twitched slightly. He knew perfectly well that his son hadn't fallen in love with Mingyue at all.

That guy is just lusting after her body!
It's not even close to being love!
"This is no joke. You must not do anything wrong. Get along well with Mingyue. Whether Wushuang City can survive this calamity depends entirely on the two of you!"

As Dugu Yifang spoke, he warned Dugu Ming with his eyes not to use force against Mingyue.

This will only make the other party dislike Dugu Ming even more.

After all, as his father, he naturally understood how terrible Dugu Ming's character was.

"Yes, Father, don't worry, I will definitely treat Mingyue well and will never bully her!"

Dugu Ming quickly put on a serious face and said, his eyes still fixed on Mingyue, even showing what he thought was a very handsome smile.

However, Mingyue, standing next to Mingjia's maternal grandmother, remained expressionless, and even a hint of disgust flashed uncontrollably deep in her eyes.

Dugu Yifang had already explained everything that needed to be explained, and then said to the Ming family matriarch:
"Elder Ming, I'm entrusting everything to you. I also need to prepare to face the World Society."

"Yes, leave it to me." Grandma Ming nodded slightly.

Then Dugu left.

Grandma Ming then guided Dugu Ming and Mingyue in their cultivation, and time flew by day by day.

As the day draws ever closer to the arrival of Xiong Ba, the leader of the World Society, in Wushuang City, the entire city is filled with a tense atmosphere.

There are more city guards on duty now, and the frequency of patrols is constantly increasing.

Many martial arts factions have rushed to the area near Wushuang City, eager to witness the clash between the two strongest forces in the world.

On one side is the World Alliance, which was established just over ten years ago, while on the other side is the Peerless City, which has a history of over a thousand years.

The clash between these two behemoths is a battle that any martial artist would find hard to ignore.

Soon, news spread that Xiong Ba, the leader of the Tianxia Society, had led 10,000 Tianxia Society disciples down from Tianshan Mountain.

Along with them were the Eclipse Hall, the Divine Wind Hall, and the Flying Cloud Hall, but the Heavenly Frost Hall remained to guard the Heavenly Mountain World Association, standing guard for Xiong Ba.

This news caused even more excitement in the martial arts world.

Meanwhile, Dugu Yifang, the city lord of Wushuang City, was also restless, and he came to the Ming family again.

Find Grandma Ming and inquire about the progress of cultivating "Love in a Fallen City".

Grandma Ming's face was grave. She said, "Lord Dugu, the progress is not good. There is no love between the two children."

Dugu Yifang frowned. More than ten days had passed, and there was still no progress!

He hurriedly summoned Dugu Ming and asked, "What's going on?! It's been over ten days, Ming'er, what have you been doing?!"

Dugu Ming lowered his head and retorted, "Father, I have tried my best to cooperate with Mingyue, but Mingyue is always distracted. Her mind is not on me at all."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yifang turned his gaze to the Ming family matriarch and said in a gloomy tone:

"Elder Ming, what's wrong with Mingyue?! Is she going to just stand by and watch Wushuang City be destroyed by the World Alliance?!"

Grandma Ming's face also showed some embarrassment. She said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"

After saying that, she told Dugu Yifang to take Dugu Ming away first.

Dugu Yifang had no choice but to leave the Ming family with a lot of dissatisfaction and Dugu Ming.

Then, with a dark face and leaning on her cane, Grandma Ming came to Mingyue's courtyard.

"Mingyue, what are you thinking? Is it really that difficult for you to fall in love with Dugu Ming?!"
