Douluo Continent: Azure Dragon Slays Evil, Qilin Suppresses the World

Chapter 49

Xuanqing tried to explain, although the reason he came up with was rather ridiculous.

"I'm only ten years old. You're going to wait for me to grow up? How many years will that take? What if I grow up ugly? You'll regret it then."

Even he himself didn't believe this reason. Among the soul masters with dragon-type martial souls, very few who care even a little about their appearance are ugly.

Except for the bone dragon, that thing is just a skeleton, it's not good-looking even if you want to.

Shuiyue waved her hand, looking indifferent.

"It's okay, ten or eight years is fine, I can wait. Besides, you won't grow up to be ugly. I'm usually good at judging people, and with your looks, you're sure to be a handsome guy in the future."

"So it's settled then. From today onwards, I'm your fiancée. In a few years, I'll marry you."

"You can't go back on your word, or I'll tell your parents and say you're bullying me."

Xuan Qing's lips twitched violently. Find his parents? Where would he get his parents? ...Wait, I have an idea.

He pointed at Zi Ji, then at Zhu Zhuqing, spouting nonsense with a straight face.

"I like someone aloof and reserved. You're too lively, not my type, so we're not a good match. You should find someone else."

"If you don't believe me, look how composed and aloof they are. That's exactly my type."

But who is Shuiyue'er? This guy with a unique way of thinking, who was obsessed with looks, didn't back down when he heard this. Instead, his eyes lit up and he smiled sweetly, revealing his little tiger teeth.

When Xuanqing saw that smile, his heart skipped a beat. What kind of trouble was this girl going to cause this time?

"It's okay, my sister is that type. See, it's good to keep the good stuff in the family, so you can take both of us sisters in."

"During the day, I'll take care of you, and at night I'll take care of you. I guarantee you'll be so happy you won't want to leave the house."

"puff-

'

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone was shocked by this girl's train of thought. This was too intense! Taking both sisters at once? Was she trying to completely drain Xuan Qing?

However, considering his conditions... well, I can understand. Who wouldn't want to have such a prodigy in their hands?

Although Shuiyue'er is a lovesick girl, she's not stupid. She knows to invest in advance, and Xuanqing is still young, but she's already quite shrewd.

Once he's a few years older and more experienced, he'll be harder to fool. Now is definitely the best time to make a move.

Xuan Qing wanted to slap himself right now. How could he have forgotten this? He had dug his own hole, jumped in, and then tamped it down.

The two sisters together? He can't handle that.

Xuan Qing looked at Xue Qinghe.

"Remember to deliver the reward to the Dugu residence, or I'll tear down your Crown Prince's palace!"

After saying that, he turned around and ran away. He was so fast that he disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if he were a dog.

If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that Shuiyue'er would just tie him up and take him home.

Shuiyue called from behind.

"You can't escape! I've made up my mind about you. When you grow up, I'll come and marry you—no, I mean, I'll marry you!"

Xuanqing ran even faster, disappearing from the main hall in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Zi Ji suppressed her laughter and followed. Zhu Zhuqing also quickly followed, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.

After the three left, the main hall erupted in laughter, especially Dugu Bo, who slapped the table and laughed until tears streamed down his face.

"Hahahaha! This kid's finally got what he deserves! He's always the one driving people crazy, now it's his turn, so satisfying! So satisfying!"

Dugu Yan also covered her mouth, her shoulders shaking, but her laughter wasn't as exaggerated.

Chen Xin sat in her seat with a cup of tea in her hand. Although she appeared calm, the tea kept sloshing around, clearly indicating that she was trying not to laugh.

Xue Qinghe was in a great mood. It was truly gratifying to see Xuan Qing suffer such a setback.

Ning Fengzhi smiled and shook his head.

"It's a good thing that young people are popular, but this level of popularity is a bit excessive."

"However, considering young friend Xuanqing's situation, it's understandable. Who wouldn't want to have such a prodigy in their grasp?"

Xue Qinghe nodded in agreement, and said with schadenfreude.

"I think this is not bad. At least someone can keep his mouth shut. This is called one thing subduing another. Let's see if he dares to talk nonsense again."

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Rongrong and teased her.

"Rongrong, you're under a lot of competitive pressure."

"Although Shuiyue'er is a bit lively, she has a straightforward personality, is pretty, and has an older sister. The twins are so attractive that their charm is doubled."

Ning Rongrong blushed.

"Dad...Dad, what are you saying? Who...who likes him! He's so annoying, I don't like him at all."

Ning Fengzhi looked at her and smiled. As a father, how could he not understand his daughter's thoughts?

Xuan Qing is a unique individual even in the history of Douluo Continent, but his daughter is too shy to say it.

Moreover, it seems that Xuanqing is still clueless about matters between men and women, otherwise he wouldn't have been scared away by Shuiyue'er.

On the other side, Shui Yue'er returned to Shui Bing'er's side and smiled smugly.

"Sister, did you hear that? He said he likes someone aloof and reserved, and you fit the bill perfectly, don't you? How about you consider it?"

"Let's join forces, sisters, to take him down. You'll be the first wife, and I'll be the second wife. We'll manage him together."

Shui Bing'er blushed and scolded him playfully.

"Moon, what nonsense are you talking about! How can you say such things so casually? Besides, he just ran away, which clearly means he didn't want to. Let's not presume to understand."

Shuiyue chuckled.

"Oh, sister, you don't understand. He's afraid we'll just eat him up. It means he's thin-skinned and easy to train."

"When he grows up, won't he be completely at our mercy? If you want him to go east, he'll never dare to go west. If you make him kneel on a washboard, he won't dare to stand up. Isn't that wonderful?"

Shui Bing'er subconsciously imagined that scene.

After the marriage, Xuanqing knelt at her feet, pitifully calling her "sister" and begging for her forgiveness. That scene... didn't seem so bad.

But she immediately shook her head, banishing the thought, and quickly covered her face, feeling her cheeks burning. How could she have such a thought? It was so embarrassing.

But then I thought about it again.

If you have to get married, why not choose a good one? Aside from her sharp tongue, Xuanqing doesn't seem to have any other flaws.

If Xuanqing knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say something.

"The Land of Love is terrifying. The girls here have all abnormal brain circuits, each one more intense than the last."

After the banquet, Xue Qinghe returned to the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace, removed her disguise, and reverted to her original appearance as Qian Renxue.

She sat in front of the mirror, looking at her face with a smile on her lips. Today was so satisfying! That bastard Xuan Qing finally got what he deserved. She could laugh for a year at his pathetic state.

Just then, a figure appeared silently behind her.

Qian Renxue didn't even need to turn around to know who was coming. There were only a handful of people who knew about this secret room.
