War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

4410 Wang Kui

Ye Qiang Wei was the pride of the Ye clan, and her status was not the same as that of Wang Luo Yu in the Wang clan. The founder of Ye Qiang Wei’s faction was one of the three strongest powerhouses in the Ye clan, and she was highly favored by the founder. Moreover, there were very few female direct descendants in the Ye clan among the younger generation so she was very doted upon. For this reason, even Wang Ming, the leader of one of the factions in the Wang clan, was quite polite and respectful to Ye Qiang Wei.

“Elder Wang Ming,” Ye Qiang Wei said with a nod. She had a rather good impression of Wang Ming. This was because she had heard Wang Luo Yu say that many people began to treat her indifferently after Wang Yi Yuan’s death. However, Wang Ming did not treat Wang Luo Yu indifferently, and he also spoke to her and comforted her several times.

Wang Ming looked at Wang Luo Yu and said with a sigh, “The clan leader sent me a message saying that a talented young man came to the clan, and the other party wants to meet you. The other party said that he’s willing to join the Wang clan for your sake. Needless to say, the clan leader prefers to let that young man join our clan than to marry you off. The clan leader also asked me to inform you about this matter. He’ll send me another message soon, and at that time, I’ll bring you to meet that talented young man.”

Wang Luo Yu smiled bitterly upon hearing these words. The clan leader said that he preferred to let the young man join the Wang clan than marry her off, but there was no difference at all. In other words, the clan leader wanted her to marry the young man. Although she would not be married off to another force, she still could not choose her husband. Fortunately, she had already accepted her fate.

!! Ye Qiang Wei frowned and said to Wang Ming, “Elder Wang Ming, I came this time to invite Sister Luo Yu to the Ye clan as a guest so she can relax. Elder Wang Ming, I hope you can help her delay this matter…”

Wang Ming shook his head before he said to Ye Qiang Wei, “Miss Ye, I know you really want to help Luo Yu. However, I advise you to give up. If word of this spreads, it’ll affect your father. It might even hinder your father from becoming the Clan Leader of the Ye clan.”

Clearly, Wang Ming was aware of the situation in the Ye clan. Two outstanding members of the Ye clan were now competing for the position of the Clan Leader of the Ye clan, and the duo was evenly matched in every aspect. One of the two competitors was Ye Qiang Wei’s father.

If Ye Qiang Wei offended the Wang clan, it would definitely cause trouble for the Ye clan and upset the elders of the Ye clan. At that time, the opponent of Ye Qiang Wei’s father would definitely gain the upper hand in their bid for the position of the Clan Leader of the Ye clan.

Ye Qiang Wei’s expression changed slightly upon hearing Wang Ming’s words. After a moment, she gritted her teeth and said, “Then, I won’t bring her to the Ye clan. I’ll bear all the responsibility for this matter!”

“You’re going to bear the responsibility for this matter?” Wang Ming shook his head and said, “Miss Ye, you’re too naive. Even if you don’t bring Luo Yu to the Ye clan, as long as people know that you brought Luo Yu away and ruined Luo Yu’s arranged marriage, your father and the Ye clan will still be implicated. Don’t tell me you plan to sever ties with the Ye clan?”

Wang Ming thought that Ye Qiang Wei was too naive. Perhaps, she was too anxious that she failed to see how important and serious this matter was.

Ye Qiang Wei blushed slightly upon hearing Wang Ming’s words. Then, she said solemnly, “As long as Sister Luo Yu is fine, I don’t mind leaving the Ye clan!”

“Sister Qiang Wei!” Wang Luo Yu exclaimed. Then, she said with a soft sigh, “I’d rather die than leave this place with you. If you leave the clan at such a critical moment, Uncle Ye will still be implicated anyway. Sister Qiang Wei, don’t interfere in this matter. No matter the outcome, no matter what the future holds, it’s all fated.”

Ye Qiang Wei fell silent. The gloomy expression on her face showed the turbulent waves of emotions that had been stirred up in her heart.

At this time, Wang Luo Yu looked at Wang Ming and said with a slight smile, “Grandpa, take a seat while you wait for the clan leader’s message.”

Seeing how sensible Wang Luo Yu was, Wang Ming could not help but sigh again. He felt slightly regretful at the same time. If he had known better, he would have sent her away as soon as he found out that Wang Yi Yuan had died so the others would not have a chance to target her. It would not be difficult to send her away at that time, but it was very difficult to do so now. After all, many elders and high-ranking officials in the rank who prioritized the clan’s interests were now staring at Wang Luo Yu, hoping to use her to strengthen the clan.

After taking a seat, a smile replaced the serious expression on Wang Ming’s face before he said, “Luo Yu, compared to marrying into another force, it’s better to marry someone who’s willing to stay in our clan. I heard from the elder of the patrolling team that the young man is very handsome. Most importantly, he’s very strong despite his young age. In terms of talent, even the most outstanding member among the younger generation in our clan is inferior to him. In fact, no one among the younger generation in the Divine Sand Realm is a match for him. I’m sure many women are attracted to that young man, but it seems like he only likes you. Perhaps, sometime in the future, you’ll be glad that you met him.”

Wang Luo Yu did not take Wang Ming’s words seriously. She assumed that he was only trying to comfort her. After all, if the other party was so outstanding, why would he fall for a person like her? The only thing she was known for was being the number one beauty in Blue Dawn City, and Blue Dawn City was just one of many cities in the Divine Sand Realm. Let alone the entire Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds, there were many who were more beautiful than her in the Divine Sand Realm alone.

Ye Qiang Wei also assumed Wang Ming was trying to console Wang Luo Yu, and she also found his words too exaggerated. She could not help but say, “Elder Wang Ming, if he’s so outstanding, how can he be willing to join the Wang clan just for Sister Luo Yu’s sake? Based on what you said, he has a high potential of becoming a supreme powerhouse in the future. Why would such a person agree to join the Wang clan for the sake of a woman he had never met before? He had only seen her portrait.”

Ye Qiang Wei was from a relatively powerful clan, after all. She was privy to many things and had met many people. She knew how arrogant those young prodigies were. In her opinion, it was impossible for a proud prodigy to marry into a woman’s clan, especially when joining the clan would not benefit him. On the contrary, in this case, it was likely that the Wang clan needed to rely on the young man instead of the other way around. As such, if the young man was as outstanding as Wang Ming said he was, there was no way he would join the Wang clan.

…

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of the discussion going on between Wang Luo Yu and the others. He was now meeting the Clan Leader of the Wang clan in the reception hall.

The Clan Leader of the Wang clan was a tall and burly middle-aged man who seemed to wear a perpetual solemn expression on his face. He had a distinct worm-like scar on his forehead. It was not difficult to remove such a scar, but since he had left it there, it must serve a purpose.

After being brought to the reception hall, the Grand Elder of the Wang clan said, “Clan leader, this is Young Master Li Feng.”

“Greetings, Clan Leader Wang. I’m Li Feng,” Duan Ling Tian said politely. Although he knew the other party was no match for him, he knew he had to leave a good impression on the other party due to his mission. If he offended the other party, it would make his plan to bring Wang Yi Yuan’s sister away even more difficult.

“Young Master Li Feng,” the Clan Leader of the Wang clan responded in kind. He had probed Duan Ling Tian with his Divine Consciousness and confirmed that Duan Ling Tian did not only look young and that Duan Ling Tian was indeed young. As such, he was polite to Duan Ling Tian as well. Moreover, he had heard about what happened earlier. He was not much stronger than the Grand Elder of the Wang clan, but the Grand Elder suffered quite a bit due to Duan Ling Tian.

The Clan Leader of the Wang clan smiled and said amiably, “I’m Wang Kui, the Clan Leader of the Wang clan. If you get together with Luo Yu, it’s not just an honor to Luo Yu, but it’s the Wang clan’s honor as well. Young Master Li, I heard that you want to spar with one of our Supreme Elders. I’ve already spoken to him, and he’s willing to space with you. The Supreme Elder said that since you came from afar, you should rest in our clan for a few days and recover your energy before you spar with him.”

Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “There’s no need for that. Clan Leader Wang, please tell the Supreme Elder that I can spar now if he’s willing…”

Seeing the hesitant expression on Wang Kui’s face, Duan Ling Tian added, “After sparring with the Supreme Elder, I want to formally meet Miss Luo Yu. I want to prove my strength as soon as I can so that the Wang clan will know that I’m worthy of Miss Wang Luo Yu.”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Wang Kui smiled and said, “Very well. Since you insist, I’ll send a message to the Supreme Elder.”

After a while, Wang Kui received the reply from the Supreme Elder and said with a smile, “Young Master Li Feng, the Supreme Elder asked me to bring you to him. We don’t want to cause a huge commotion so you’ll be sparring in our clan’s spatial artifact. Do you have any objections? If you prefer otherwise, we’ll look for a remote place for you to spar.”

Duan Ling Tian shook his head and replied, “I have no objections. If the space in the spatial artifact is stable enough, we can spar in there.”
