Chapter 539: Battle For A Hand In Marriage



“Don’t worry! Although Liang Martial City is under the Martial Alliance’s control, there is only one First Earthly Martial Stage cultivator in the whole city, who is weaker than me! We won’t have any problems going in,” Lan Ling’er explained hurriedly when she saw how cautious he looked.

“There are so many Martial Alliance guards at the gates. How will we enter?” asked Long Chen.

“We’ll sneak in from somewhere else, of course, stupid! Who can a simple city wall keep out?” Lan Ling’er knocked his forehead, then she led him on a huge detour to a more hidden spot in the city wall. She blinked her watery eyes and said, “After we enter, remember to call me ‘Brother Lan!’”

Long Chen nodded with a grin, then she quickly led him into the city. Of course, no one had seen them sneak in; she was an Earthly Martial Realm cultivator after all.

“Why did you want to come to Liang Martial City?” Long Chen asked curiously.

“For fun, of course! This world is full of marvelous things. The others love staying in the Phantom Ravine, but I don’t like that place. It’s too quiet. I love hustle and bustle. Let’s go walk around!” Lan Ling’er pulled him away to a very busy main street. She kept staring at displays of ladies’ fashion, forgetting that she was in a man’s disguise.

Long Chen followed her in exasperation.

There were few high-tiered cultivators in this city of a hundred thousand people. Long Chen looked around and saw that most of the people were at the Heavenly River Realm, while the kids were mostly at the Divine Core Realm. Of course, there were also regular people who could not cultivate.

They roamed around as he kept Lan Ling’er company, and he truly felt how scary a woman could be. Whenever she spotted something she liked, she would use all sorts of methods to get it. After half a day, she seemed to be somewhat satisfied. He was about to suggest going back when they noticed a commotion ahead.

When she heard the noise, she pulled him over and said, “Brother Long, let’s go check it out!”

Long Chen was speechless.

When they arrived, Long Chen saw a grand hotel called the Liang Martial Hotel. Judging by the name, it was the grandest hotel in the whole city. At the bottom of the hotel stood a large red stage, which added to the celebratory atmosphere. There were many people surrounding the stage, and most of them were male.

Lan Ling’er, with her Earthly Martial Realm strength, was soon able to squeeze herself to the front with Long Chen. She hurriedly grabbed a bystander and asked, “Brother, what is happening here?”

“You don’t know? The owner of the Liang Martial Hotel’s daughter is organizing a competition for her hand in marriage! Anyone who is under twenty-two years old, and whose cultivation level is higher than hers can become his son-in-law! Let me tell you this, the hotel owner is the mayor’s younger brother. He’s very wealthy, and if you get to become his son-in-law, you’re going to enjoy the rest of your life in riches!”

“Son-in-law?” Lan Ling’er’s eyes lit up.

“Sister Lan, that’s enough. Our identities are sensitive. We should keep a low profile,” Long Chen said hurriedly because she looked like she really wanted to participate.

“I just want to watch. Nothing will happen! Don’t worry about anything! Also, have you forgotten what you need to call me?” Lan Ling’er furrowed her brows, pretending to be fierce.

On a high floor of the hotel, three middle-aged men were watching the scene downstairs through a window. One was short and fat, another was as regal as a tiger, while the last was wearing a formal, long, yellow robe with a giant “martial” (武) character.

The short, fat man was the hotel owner, while the regal one was naturally the Earthly Martial Realm mayor. The mayor of Liang Martial City said to the yellow-robed man, “Martial King Qin, I apologize for my niece’s funny idea to search for a prodigy.”

The man called Martial King Qin smiled and said, “It’s not funny at all! Yu’er is only eighteen, yet she has already reached the Eighth Passage Stage. She would be considered a prodigy in the Martial Alliance. If someone defeats her and becomes your new son-in-law, it will be a good thing as long as you are clear about their identity.”

“That’s true, that’s true. We must be clear about their identity. We can’t let anyone with malicious intent or hatred for the Martial Alliance in,” said the mayor hurriedly.

“In that case, let’s watch carefully. Let’s see what sort of prodigies live in Liang Martial City,” said Martial King Qin with a smile.

The main character of the event, a girl named Yu’er, finally made an appearance. Long Chen took a glance and saw that she was indeed pretty and was at the Eighth Passage Stage. She would have been considered a top-tier prodigy in the Ancient Demon Domain.

The girl emphasized that anyone who could beat her would become the Liang family’s new son-in-law, then she announced the start of the event. Long Chen never thought a practice found in Baiyang Town, which was a small place in the Cangyang Kingdom, to also be found here.

However, this seemed like a very new thing to Lan Ling’er, so she was very excited.

This was considered a major event in Liang Martial City. However, very few people dared step up despite the growing crowd. This girl was the number one prodigy of the city after all. Many Seventh Passage Stage cultivators went up, but they were defeated and had to flee pathetically. Time passed quickly, and the number of participants dwindled. Although the girl was pretty and it was very tempting, everyone knew their own capabilities well and did not go up to embarrass themselves.

“There are hundreds of thousands of people in Liang Martial City! Is there not a single man who can defeat a little girl?” The girl named Yu’er looked down at the crowd mockingly.

Lan Ling’er was furious. “Fuck that! How dare she look down on me! Let me get up there and show you what a true man is!”

Then she rushed onto the stage and stood in front of the girl!

She’s a fake; what does she know about being a man … Long Chen was speechless. They were supposed to be keeping a low profile, but Lan Ling’er wasn’t taking their safety seriously and Long Chen had failed to pull her back in time before she ran up.

Lan Ling’er’s words triggered loud cheers in the crowd. She smiled and raised a hand for them to quiet down. She said loudly, “Fellow men! I did not intend to come up here, but this girl dared look down on us! I came up here for justice! Not only must I punish this girl here on this stage, I will punish her again on the night of our consummation to vent the anger in my heart!”

Lan Ling’er’s words ignited a deafening cheer from the crowd.

Long Chen was stupefied.

She was being too reckless.

“You bastard! How dare you spout that nonsense! You’re looking for death!” The girl had turned red from Lan Ling’er’s insults and hurriedly attacked her. To the crowd’s shock, one casual move from Lan Ling’er was enough to defeat her.

Everyone gasped in surprise.

Long Chen furrowed his brows. It was getting out of hand, so he had no choice but to announce loudly, “Brother Lan, it’s time to go. If you aren’t leaving, I’ll head out first!”

Lan Ling’er knew she had overdone it when she saw that Long Chen was getting angry. She smiled sheepishly and let the girl go. She was about to head to Long Chen when a loud explosion came from the top of the hotel. Two middle-aged men rushed out, hovering in the air. They looked at Lan Ling’er with interest while the mayor said coldly, “Young man! You need to respect my rules after you have defeated my niece! Are you really going to leave?”

Lan Ling’er’s gaze instantly turned cold. Her gaze moved from the mayor to the other man. The man was also studying her, but his eyes suddenly widened!

“Lan Ling’er! I can’t believe it’s you! I was just wondering why such a young Earthly Martial Realm cultivator would appear here! Only the Ever-Changing Demon Girl could make herself a man, haha! I did not even have to spend any effort to search for you! Brother Liang, we’re going to be generously rewarded for this!” Martial King Qin said emotionally.

When the crowd sensed the tension in the air, they fled quickly.

They all knew the mayor, but if this man could sit side-by-side with him, there was no way he was a simple figure. And if they looked at Lan Ling’er as if they had met their archnemesis, would Lan Ling’er be a simple figure? If they fought each other, it would surely result in great casualties!

“A master at the Earthly Martial Realm! He’s a Martial King from the Martial Alliance!” Lan Ling’er’s face changed. She was only one person, and there were two opponents! If they attacked together, she would be no match for them!

She was only here to play; she had not expected this at all!

Her mind raced, trying to find a way to deal with this. Suddenly, she had an idea. In a flash, she grabbed the girl named Yu’er and wrapped her hand around her neck. Lan Ling’er would easily be able to kill Yu’er if they attacked.

“Big Brother, she is holding my daughter hostage!” cried the stout hotel owner in a panic.

The mayor frowned. Martial King Qin did not speak and rushed at Long Chen. The mayor had not noticed what Long Chen said to Lan Ling’er, but he had. Since Lan Ling’er had decided to hold Yu’er hostage, why couldn’t he hold Long Chen hostage?

There was an unexpected twist in the tournament for marriage!
