Chapter 3781 An Acquaintance From the Hidden Fog Sect

"Indeed. However, it depends on whether you're willing to listen to me," Duan Ling Tian said to Murong Yin Yue through Voice Transmission.

"What is it?" Murong Yin Yue asked eagerly. She seemed to have lost all reason and was led by the nose by Duan Ling Tian.

"Clan Leader Murong must dote on you a lot, right?" Duan Ling Tian asked as he looked at Murong Yun Liu who was chatting with Linghu Zheng Xing. He could see that every

at his daughter. Moreover, Hou Qing Ning had also said Murong Yin Yue was Murong Yun Liu's youngest and only daughter.

Duan Ling Tian knew Murong Yun Liu had two sons. Like their father, they were outstanding. The eldest son was now a White Dragon Elder in the Flying Dragon Sect while the second was not even 10,000 years old but was an outstanding advanced King of Gods who was being groomed to become the next Clan Leader of the Murong clan. That was the reason Murong Yun Liu's second son did not join the Flying Dragon Sect. As Murong Yun Liu's youngest and only daughter, how could Murong Yun Liu not dote on Murong Yin Yue?

"Of course!" Murong Yin Yue said proudly as she held her head up high. However, she did not understand why Duan Ling Tian would ask about this. She asked eagerly, "So, what ideas do you have?"

"It's actually quite simple," Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, "Young Third Miss, you're usually protected by powerhouses from the Murong clan, right?"

Murong Yin Yue nodded. "Usually, when I leave the clan's estate, Grandma Chan will follow me. However, she's not here this time since my father is here. Grandma Chan is a Lord of Gods."

The fact that Murong Yin Yue was protected by a Lord of Gods showed her weight in Murong Yun Liu's heart. After all, not everyone was protected by a Lord of Gods.

"After the Latent Dragon Grand Contest ends, return to the Murong clan and ask Grandma Chan to meet with the Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect, who's Hou Qing Ning's father," Duan Ling Tian said, "Tell him to go to the Murong clan to propose marriage on behalf of his son. However, before his father comes to the Murong clan, you must ensure Hou Qing Ning doesn't find out about it. At that time, he'll surely be yours."

Murong Yin Yue's eyes widened upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's words. Clearly, she did not expect Duan Ling Tian to come up with such an idea. If that happened, she knew she would get what she wanted. However, she asked hesitantly, "This doesn't seem appropriate, right? Won't he be unhappy once he finds out about it?"

"Don't worry. He won't be unhappy," Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, "Do you think he has no feelings for you? If he has no interest in you, I wouldn't bother doing this. As a friend, I naturally want the best for him."

Hou Qing Ning was one of the rare few that Duan Ling Tian considered friends in the Realms of Gods. How could he harm Hou Qing Ning? He wanted to match Hou Qing Ning and Murong Yin Yue not only because they both liked each other, but also because the marriage would benefit Hou Qing Ning as well.

With the marriage, after Hou Qing Ning joined the Flying Dragon Sect, he would naturally be looked after by the Murong faction in the Flying Dragon Sect. After all, his brother-in-law was a White Dragon Elder in the Flying Dragon Sect.

Meanwhile, Hou Qing Ning was naturally unaware of Duan Ling Tian's actions.

'I hope he'll understand my good intentions in the future,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

"Third Young Miss, if Hou Qing Ning asks about this, you can tell him it's my idea. With this, it won't affect your relationship," Duan Ling Tian said.

Murong Yin Yue was surprised by these words. She did not expect Duan Ling Tian would be willing to take the blame. After a moment, she said, slightly moved, "Duan Ling Tian, I admit I had a bad impression when I heard about your unrealistic and impractical promise earlier. I thought you were unreliable. However, I see now that you're a good person. To be honest, I still think it's impossible for you to raise so many divine rocks in 100 years. I'll try to help you raise a million divine rocks. I'm sorry, but I don't think I can raise any more than that."

Duan Ling Tian was shocked by Murong Yin Yue's words. This showed how wealthy the lord-rank Murong clan was. He was also shocked by her generosity. Finally, he said confidently, "Thank you for your kindness, Third Young Miss. However, I'm confident I'll be able to fulfill my promise to the Murong

clan."

At this time, Hou Qing Ning, who had noticed Duan Ling Tian and Murong Yin Yue

are you talking to the Third Young Miss?"

"That's right. Am I not allowed to?" Duan Ling Tian asked before he said, "She's quite pretty. Moreover, if she agrees to marry me, my life would be slightly easier. To be honest, she seems to like you, but since you're not interested in her, you won't mind if I make a move on her, right?"

"Duan Ling Tian, don't mess with her. She's just an innocent girl. Didn't you say you're already married with children?" Hou Qing Ning panicked, not realizing that Duan Ling Tian was teasing him.

"Isn't it normal to have a few wives as long as one can afford it?" Duan Ling Tian asked.

Hou Qing Ning was rendered speechless by Duan Ling Tian's words. His frown grew deeper.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian said, "However, if you have feelings for her, I'll naturally step aside."

Upon hearing this, Hou Qing Ning hurriedly said, "That's right! I have feelings for her! When the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect becomes a lord-rank force, I plan to go to the Murong clan to ask for her hand in marriage!"

In the beginning, Hou Qing Ning had been annoyed when Murong Yin Yue approached him. However, after getting to know her, he

melted his heart. Before he knew it, he had developed feelings for her. However, due to the difference in their status, he felt inferior so he was unwilling to make a move.

"Alright, alright. Since you like her, I won't make a move on her," Duan Ling Tian said. After that, he told Murong Yin Yue about his conversation with Hou Qing Ning.

Murong Yin Yue's eyes lit up immediately, and her expression grew determined.

At this time, the people from the Linghu clan and the Murong clan were chatting as well. They spoke about local customs, women, and family, but most of them spoke about cultivation, the laws, and Duan Ling Tian. Naturally, there were some who chose to cultivate as well.

A few hours later...

One of the Murong clan's disciples suddenly exclaimed, "It's the Hidden Fog Sect!"

Everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, turned to look at a group of people who had just arrived.

A middle-aged man and an old man whom Duan Ling Tian was familiar with led the group of people. They were none other than Qian Yin, the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect, and Supreme Elder Lei.

Duan Ling Tian also saw Murong Sui Feng, one of the Vice Sect Leaders of the Hidden Fog Sect and also the dean of Skywind City's Hidden Fog Academy, flying at the back.

"Dean Murong," Duan Ling Tian said through Voice Transmission. He had always felt grateful for Murong Sui Feng's kindness toward him during his days in the Hidden Fog Academy

"Duan Ling Tian! It's been about 30 years since we last met," Murong Sui Feng said as a smile appeared on his otherwise expressionless face.

"That's right. It's been about 30 years," Duan Ling Tian said. As he thought about his days in the Hidden Fog Academy, he said with a sigh, "Unfortunately, I failed you and did not rise in the Hidden Fog Sect as you'd wished. I sincerely apologize for that, Dean Murong."

"I heard about what happened," Murong Sui Feng shook his head and said, "What happened in the past wasn't your fault. There's no need to apologize. I can only say that the Hidden Fog Sect has no fate with

you."
