3: If you win, I'll marry you, if you lose, I'll leave.
Palace Lord Lin Wan gently sipped her tea, and after sorting through her thoughts, she ultimately left the decision to Leng Ruoli.
Leng Ruoli said nothing, but instead turned to look at Su Xuan.
Two gazes met in mid-air.
Hmm?
Just now, Leng Ruoli had only been able to see Su Xuan's profile.
Now that she saw him clearly, she suddenly felt a sense of her eyes lighting up.
It was a young man, standing tall and slender, his white robes purer than snow, unstained by a speck of dust.
His handsome face was carved as if by a sculptor, perfect and flawless.
Though a youth, he exuded a subtle confidence.
It wasn't overbearing nor restrained; it was very natural.
Leng Ruoli knew that such a temperament could only be possessed by someone truly confident in himself.
But, did the young man before her truly deserve such confidence?
“You are the one who wants to marry me?”
The next second, Leng Ruoli's faint voice echoed throughout the entire main hall.
“Yes.”
Su Xuan gazed at Leng Ruoli, nodding lightly in response.
“Heh heh, wanting to marry me isn't impossible, unless...”
Leng Ruoli spoke faintly, but her voice suddenly paused.
“What? How can I marry you?”
Su Xuan's lips curved into a smile as he asked.
If there were conditions, it meant marriage was possible!
“In this life, I can only marry a strong man, one strong enough to sweep through an era, unrivaled by anyone.”
Leng Ruoli gazed at Su Xuan, her red lips parting slightly as she continued.
As her words fell, the entire main hall suddenly plunged into silence.
Silent as cicadas in winter, quiet as a secluded valley.
Not a single sound remained.
In an instant, everyone was astonished by Leng Ruoli's criteria for a spouse.
Sweep through an era? Unrivaled by anyone?
What grand words were these?
Now was the Golden Age, and not to mention the entire Dao Xuan World, even just the Northern Region had countless Prides of the Heavens emerging.
Some of those Prides of the Heavens were born with Saint Bodies, and for them, defeating those above their cultivation level was effortless!
Some were Saints reincarnated, born with innate knowledge, their speed and depth of comprehension for Cultivation Techniques and divine abilities far surpassing ordinary people!
Some were born with Double Pupils, never allowing a single defeat in the mortal world!
In such a great age, it was common for Prides of the Heavens to fall and new kings to rise.
Who could claim to be unrivaled?
Who dared to speak of being undefeated?
Under the heavens, probably no one would dare to say such a thing!
“It won't be long before I can sweep through an era, unrivaled by anyone, just as you said.”
Before everyone could react, Su Xuan's faint words once again echoed throughout the entire Palace.
His voice was not loud, light and airy, very calm.
Yet, it exploded in the ears of everyone in the Palace.
Immediately, everyone turned their gaze to the young man who spoke.
They saw him with a calm expression, as if stating an established fact.
Whoosh!
Immediately, the entire Palace erupted in a clamor.
“Such strong confidence, Su Familys Young Emperor, does he really have such confidence?”
“Heh heh, in the Golden Age, Prides of the Heavens emerge in droves. A single Supreme Bone probably isn't enough, is it?”
“He's truly boasting without thinking. There are countless geniuses in this world, who dares to speak like that?”
Most of the Elders of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace didn't believe Su Xuan's words, but they didn't dare to say it loudly, only whispering amongst themselves.
“So calm, does he truly possess this kind of confidence?”
Hearing Su Xuan's words, Leng Ruoli was also startled. She looked at the young man, trying to find a trace of timidity on his face.
But she only saw the calmness on his face.
This made Leng Ruoli curious.
The confidence on this young man was something she had never seen, even with her extensive knowledge; it was truly too composed, too serene.
Leng Ruoli knew in her heart that with such confidence, physical constitution and the like were no longer important.
Su Xuan's future achievements would certainly not be low!
However, was merely this enough to marry her?
“As expected of my son, this kind of confidence is destined to sweep through an era! A Supreme Bone, destined to be Supreme!”
Compared to the doubts of the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace's people, Su Yuntian was extremely certain of Su Xuan's words and praised him greatly.
“Hahahaha! As expected of my Su Familys Young Emperor! This era, destiny belongs to the Su Family!”
Su Xuan's second uncle, Su Lintian, burst out laughing directly, full of heroic spirit.
“Heh heh, just talking is useless. How about we have a fight?
If you win, I'll marry you. If you lose, everything ends here.”
Suddenly, Leng Ruoli's voice rang out, tinged with coldness.
She had already entered Hualong (Dragon Transformation), and her Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Body had initially awakened, while the Su Xuan before her was only at Hualong (Dragon Transformation) Third Transformation.
With her combat experience from her previous life, she was confident she could defeat Su Xuan!
As soon as these words were spoken, the space in the entire Palace seemed to freeze.
“Leng Ruoli, what is the meaning of this? Although she has stepped into the Hualong (Dragon Transformation) realm, that boy Su Xuan is already at Hualong (Dragon Transformation) Third Transformation...”
“Could it be that Leng Ruoli truly wants to marry him?”
Palace Lord Lin Wan wondered. One must know that in the Nine Transformations of Hualong (Dragon Transformation), each transformation was a metamorphosis!
And between each transformation, there was an unbridgeable chasm!
Even if Leng Ruoli's talent was high, could she truly bridge the gap of these two transformations?
“Are you sure?”
Su Xuan's heart immediately filled with joy upon hearing this, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
This woman actually proposed such a request.
Could it be that she truly wanted to marry him?
Therefore, Su Xuan asked, confirming with her, fearing she might go back on her word.
“Confirmed. If you win, I marry you. If you lose, you leave.”
Leng Ruoli responded softly, her voice carrying a slight chill.
“Good, then let's try it.”
Su Xuan nodded, the smile on his face uncontrollable.
Although the System's more generous rewards would only be issued after he married Leng Ruoli.
But the System's novice gift pack had given him the complete Supreme Bone treasure art—
【Heavenly Tribulation Light】!
With the complete Supreme Bone treasure art, Su Xuan feared no one!
“Divine Phoenix Fire, ignite!”
No sooner had the words fallen than a soft cry echoed within the Palace.
It was Leng Ruoli making her move.
In an instant, a crimson flame fiercely ignited, surging forth!
This was the innate Divine Ability of Leng Ruoli's Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Body!
Divine Phoenix Fire, burning all things under heaven!
“Leng Ruoli, what kind of technique is this? I never taught her... Could it be her newly awakened Physique?”
As Leng Ruoli's Revered Master, Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace Palace Lord Lin Wan was startled and somewhat shocked to see the surging flames in the Palace.
“The Holy Maiden actually possesses such an unimaginably terrifying technique?
This terrifying pressure actually made me, a Great Power, feel a hint of trepidation!
It seems the Holy Maiden may not lose!”
“What terrifying flames, no wonder this girl dared to challenge Su Xuan!”
Su Yuntian's eyes gleamed with surprise.
Such flames, one could tell they were extraordinary just by sensing them.
“Xiao Xuan will not be defeated, born Supreme, crushing everything!”
Su Lintian was exceptionally excited, watching Su Xuan without blinking, anticipating how he would respond.
Under everyone's gaze, Su Xuan merely raised his hand slightly.
“Heavenly Tribulation Light!”
