Shang Rongrong suddenly threw herself into's embrace, causing Li Xu to be surprised. She had wanted to give way at first, but seeing her crying so miserably and emotionally, she felt his heart soften for a moment, but then she regretted it, because she saw that the numerous female disciples in front of them were all looking at the two of them with envious expressions. Some of them even clasped their hands, as if they were wishing him good luck, while others were praying for him. Even that Xu Xiu looked at him with a much gentler gaze, as if she was very happy for Shang Rongrong.

He turned his head to the side and looked at Qin Qing with bright and clear eyes. Lee Xun smiled bitterly in shame, but at the moment, in front of so many people, he immediately pushed Shang Rongrong away, causing him to be unable to do so. He could only pat Shang Rongrong on the shoulder and say: "Elder Xu Xiu and I still have things to discuss, and we will look for you in a while, okay?"

Shang Rongrong wiped her tears and said resentfully: "Then you have to hurry, I have a lot of things to say to you."

Hearing Shang Rongrong's words, Lee Xun understood that he had misunderstood when he saw her fierce gaze earlier. So when she had heard Xu Xiu say that she was pretending to be Lee Xun, he had thought of the same hypothesis as Xu Xiao, thinking that she had been harmed by the people from Dou Family. But Lee Xun was even more confused, what was going on with Shang Rongrong, how did he change so much after just meeting him?

Without thinking anymore, Lee Xun brought Qin Qing and the others and followed Xu Xiu to the Human Palace Hall. When a disciple sent tea for everyone to take their leave, there were only eight people left in the hall, while Le Heng consciously stayed outside the hall.

"Lee Xun, I am truly sorry for what happened previously. I was reckless."

Hearing Xu Xiu's sincere apology, Lee Xun laughed: "What did Senior Xu Xiu say, you should also be more cautious. If it was me, it would be the same, you don't have to take it to heart."

Seeing that Lee Xun did not pursue the matter, Xu Xiu's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed. In her opinion, Lee Xun was a middle stage Earth Rank expert, and was likely someone that he would never be able to reach in his entire life. Naturally, she saw Li Xu in a different light, she did not know, that if she were to fight with Lee Xun now, her odds of winning would be slightly higher.

"Lee Xun, I heard that you are engaged to Rongrong, and from Tian Hui and the others, I heard a lot about you. Rongrong is the disciple with the highest talent and the highest comprehension I have received over the years, so I had high expectations for her. Therefore, I sent someone to collect some information on you, and before long, I received a message saying that you were on your way here, so I sent someone over to see you. I know that you already have a wife, and I didn't want Rongrong to be a child. Originally, I wanted to advise you to break off the engagement, but it looks like I don't have the qualifications now. " Xu Xiu said as she took a sip of tea.

"No no, Senior Xu Xiu, you are Rongrong's master, you should naturally consider things for her. With Rongrong's talent, it is indeed inappropriate to be small for me. Actually, the reason I have my current strength is all because of luck, I won't hide it from you, I can't even use 10% of my Earth Rank. If you didn't previously choose to ask for help, but directly attacked me, then there wouldn't have been any misunderstandings. Lee Xun had said everything that was good for him. In order for Xu Xiu to continue with the idea of annulling the engagement, he had turned in his bottom line.

"Lee Xun, I can't decide on this. I don't care about your matters." How could Xu Xiu possibly not hear the question within Lee Xun's words? It was also because Lee Xun was being too hasty and spoke too much. Furthermore, in Xu Xiu's opinion, just that calm and sharp temperament and sharp intelligence of hers when facing the ten great elders was already enough to match up to Shang Rongrong. As for Lee Xun's strength, even if he was not able to unleash even ten percent of it right now, he would still be able to completely unleash it in the future. Even if it would take a hundred years, it would be much better than the strength of himself and the other ten great elders.

Hearing that Xu Xiu had chosen to leave, Lee Xun no longer held any hope for her, and said: "Senior Xu Xiu, the reason I came to your sect this time, was because I have something else with your wife Qin Qing, and also to accompany my fellow disciples to propose marriage."

"They are proposing marriage?" Xu Xiu never thought that the one who would come to propose marriage wouldn't be Lee Xun, but Lu Tuan and the others.

Lu Tuan pointed to the point, and Lu Tuan and the other three all stood up and cupped their fists as they bowed to Xu Xiu. Although the outcome of this trip would depend on the person whom they liked the most, the precondition was to pass through Xu Xiu first.

"Senior, although my four junior brothers are slightly inferior to the elite disciples of your sect, they are still the best of the best amongst their peers." Senior, my four junior brothers are perhaps inferior to the elite disciples of your sects, but they are considered to be the best among their peers. Lee Xun also stood up and saluted to Xu Xiu. It could be said that she had given Xu Xiu enough face.

Although Shang Rongrong was the one she had set her eyes on the most, it did not mean that she did not care about Tian Hui and the rest of the nine. Although Lu Tuan's strength was not bad, it was true that had said that they were the best among the same age group, and she also knew that it was very difficult for those established Sword Sect s to nurture young experts like Lu Tuan and the other three. All these years, countless of elders and elders from all of the sects had come to propose marriage, but she had rejected them all. If she were to agree to Lee Xun's request now, it would be very difficult to explain it to them, so she immediately said: "Lee Xun, my disciples are not even at the age of a master yet, it would seem a little too early to propose marriage."

Hearing that Xu Xiu had intentionally tried to lie, the hearts of Lu Tuan and the other three immediately cooled down. They looked at Lee Xun, and placed their hopes on him. How could Lee Xun not understand their meaning? He said: "Senior, we have already considered this point a long time ago. Actually, the reason why they came here wasn't to immediately end the marriage, but to establish their relationship first. Of course, it would be up to the disciples of your sect to do so. I hope senior can give them a chance to meet the person they like. If the person they like doesn't agree, then there's no meaning in talking too much here, what do you think? "

Lee Xun was so courteous, Xu Xiu felt that it was too much for him to say anything more, so she could only bite the bullet and nodded: "Then let them meet with each other once, but I will also say this first, even if it is a mutual wish, it is not that easy to take away ten flowers of my Dongting Sword Sect, do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Tuan and the other three were all overjoyed. They had finally passed the first stage, and could only take the next step at a time, they had already planned for the worst. At worst, they could just die here, for their loved one, they would only have this kind of realization. The four of them said in unison, "Thank you for agreeing, Senior."

"Don't thank me first. Wait until you can really become my Dongting Sword Sect's son-in-law."

"Senior, before coming here, my master had me bring a small gift to give to you. Because I misunderstood you earlier, I forgot about it. Please don't blame me." Lee Xun took out a note and handed it over to Xu Xiu.

When Xu Xiu heard that Lee Xun's master had actually prepared it for him, she was somewhat moved. Previously, she had personally witnessed the somewhat discomposed scene when her eldest senior brother found out that Lee Xun was someone's disciple, so it was easy for her to guess that Lee Xun's master was definitely an extraordinary person. The more she thought about it, the more anxious Xu Xiu became to open the gift. However, she understood the principle of taking advantage of someone else's hand. If she really did accept this gift, then there would be no reason for her to interfere.

Seeing Xu Xiu hesitate, Lee Xun had already guessed his intentions, and laughed: "Senior, this gift is just a token of my master's appreciation. If they are truly able to become the son-in-law of your sect, my master has also prepared a betrothal gift for each of them. I believe that it will not be a disgrace to Dongting Sword Sect. "

Hearing Lee Xun say this, Lu Tuan and the other two were extremely surprised. They did not know about the betrothal gift, but what they did not expect was that this old man would actually ask about their marriage.

The four of them suspected that this was Lee Xun taking out his private pockets, all for the sake of them. After all, Lee Xun had Earth Rank that had already been proven, so naturally, this identity couldn't be said to be on the same level, but for the sake of them always pleading with Xu Xiu in a junior's tone of voice when they were talking with him, which made the four of them feel touched, Lu Tuan said, "Senior Brother, you don't have to be like this."

Lee Xun waved his hand, and said: "The reason why I have been hiding this matter from you, is precisely to give you a pleasant surprise. Before we left, I told Master about the purpose of your trip and that he was very concerned about your marriage. When Qin Qing and I were done with our marriage, the situation was a little special, Master was not present, and you all knew about this. So when you all came here to propose, he was especially happy, and prepared a betrothal gift for each of you. "

At this moment, the four of them were even more excited, tears of joy flowing down their faces.
