432: This scene is too familiar

Behind the Elder followed a girl.

The girl looked to be in her early twenties, slender and delicate, with a face like goose fat, lips like cherry blossoms, eyebrows like painted ink, and eyes like autumn water, exuding an indescribable softness and charm.

and delicacy.

Dressed in a vibrant green dress, she appeared exceptionally striking and fresh in the vast hall, like a lotus after rain or a misty solitary mountain, exuding an ethereal and light elegance.

On her pretty face, there seemed to be a hint of sorrow.

This girl's demeanor was somewhat similar to his own Senior Sister, Nangong Yiyi.

However, the two girls' appearances were completely different; only their temperaments both had a touch of the 'sick beauty' feel.

"Rourou..."

When the Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect looked at the girl named Rourou, there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.

Rourou then walked into the main hall and bowed gracefully to Lin Ye: "This sinful Disciple, Yin Rourou, greets the Divine Child."

"Sinful Disciple?"

Lin Ye asked with some confusion, "What sin have you committed?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Rourou slightly raised her head, glancing at Lin Ye. Her beautiful eyes held an indescribable emotion, and her voice, though ethereal and pleasant, carried a hint of sorrow.

"This sinful Disciple, due to her ignorance, has failed to appreciate the good intentions of the Holy Sect. I ask the Divine Child to punish me."

"Hmm?"

Lin Ye was growing more and more bewildered; he had no idea what this woman was talking about.

When he came out, Duanmu Yu hadn't mentioned any issues with Yin Rourou of the Wuding Sect.

"Cough, cough..."

Just then, Gu Yunzhe, standing nearby, lightly coughed a few times and sent a message to Lin Ye: "Lin Ye, actually, the Sect Master was thinking of finding you a Dao Companion before, and this Yin Rourou was one of the candidates."

"But as soon as the news spread, the Wuding Sect directly refused, seemingly because Yin Rourou resisted to the death, so..."

Although Gu Yunzhe didn't finish his sentence, Lin Ye already understood.

Good heavens, was he playing the villain's role this time?

Coming directly to force a marriage?

If he wasn't mistaken...

Lin Ye looked around, and sure enough, in a corner of the main hall stood a young man with a clear face and resolute expression. His fists were tightly clenched, and veins bulged on his forehead, clearly indicating he was enduring something forcefully.

Open panel!

Ding dong...

Name: Ye Xi

Age: Nineteen

Cultivation: Purple Mansion Realm Early Stage

Special Physique: Sage Bloodline, True Dragon Bloodline.

Fate: Son of Destiny, Late Bloomer, Resolute and Unyielding, Exceptionally Talented, Peach Blossom Luck, Turn Adversity into Opportunity...

...

Indeed!

This time, it felt right.

When Lin Ye saw the appearance of the Son of Destiny, Ye Xi, he knew exactly what was going on here.

After all that, the villain turned out to be himself!

Isn't this purely a forced marriage scenario?

A Divine Child arriving at the Wuding Sect, those who knew, understood it was a mission from the Sect to investigate missing Disciples; those who didn't, clearly saw it as the Divine Child harboring resentment after being rejected.

Lin Ye now understood the expression in Yin Rourou's beautiful eyes earlier.

This was the reason!

Lin Ye was momentarily dumbfounded, not expecting such a turn of events.

His own Sect Master seemed to be meddling a bit too much.

Meanwhile, the people of the Wuding Sect grew increasingly anxious, as Lin Ye hadn't spoken a single word since he arrived.

He just sat there, his deep eyes staring at them with a half-smile.

The Divine Child was angry because of Yin Rourou's matter!

This was the consensus among the Wuding Sect members!

After all, it was rumored that this Divine Child Lin had quite a temper, and the reason for the chaos at Xuanyang Academy seemed to be that their Disciples had been disrespectful to the Divine Child.

A Sequence Disciple had his hand cut off, a Saint had his limbs severed, another Sequence Disciple was killed, and one more Sequence Disciple was abducted.

This was a Divine Child who held grudges and sought revenge.

And on their side, they had rejected the Divine Child; the Wuding Sect was in danger!

At this thought, the Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect quickly stepped forward, bowing his head deeply: "Your Highness, Divine Child, this matter is solely my responsibility. The people within the Sect are unaware, and my daughter was also forced by me! So, please blame only me!"

"Father..."

Seeing her father bow his head in supplication, Yin Rourou's beautiful eyes instantly welled up. She then also lowered her head: "Divine Child, all the mistakes are this sinful Disciple's alone. Please do not blame my father!"

Gu Yunzhe stood beside Lin Ye, suppressing his laughter.

He naturally saw that Lin Ye's current state was not anger at all, but rather utter bewilderment.

Before this, he hadn't even known he was being arranged for a marriage.

It would be strange if he wasn't bewildered!

Well, now he's become a great villain!

Lin Ye glared at the snickering Gu Yunzhe beside him, then spoke to everyone in the main hall: "Raise your heads, all of you. I'm not blaming you!"

...

Neither the father nor the daughter spoke, nor did they raise their heads.

In their view, Lin Ye was surely planning to find an excuse to destroy their Wuding Sect!

Seeing that the two refused to look up, Lin Ye could only state the purpose of his visit: "Do you know anything about those missing Disciples?"

Sure enough! He's starting to make trouble!

The Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect reacted, immediately kneeling on the ground: "Divine Child! That matter truly has nothing to do with us! I know I was wrong! Please punish me, Divine Child, but do not implicate my Sect!"

Yin Rourou also knelt beside her father, her pretty face filled with sorrow.

Lin Ye: "..."

He was a bit speechless. Asking about the missing Disciples, did they really need to react so strongly?

What happened?

What are you doing?!

Lin Ye truly didn't know how to speak.

Just then, Ye Xi directly stepped forward, and the Elder beside him couldn't stop him.

Ye Xi stood in the center of the main hall and spoke neither subserviently nor arrogantly: "Divine Child Lin, our Wuding Sect has always been a subordinate force of the Flying Feather Holy Sect. Over so many years, even without merit, we have put in hard work, right? Is it just because my Senior Sister is unwilling to become the Divine Child's Dao Companion..."

"You want to wipe out our Wuding Sect? If that's the case, it would be too..."

"Ye Xi! Shut your mouth!"

The Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect immediately stood up, forming hand seals, and his Aura burst forth, suppressing Ye Xi in place, unable to move.

After doing all this, he turned around to look at Lin Ye.

Sure enough!

Lin Ye frowned slightly, and his deep eyes seemed to carry a hint of coldness.

It's over!

This was the Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect's first thought.

Refusing to become the Divine Child's Dao Companion was already a situation akin to the destruction of their Sect for the Wuding Sect, and now Ye Xi had provoked him with words.

It would be strange if the legendary Divine Child Lin, who held grudges and sought revenge, didn't make a move against their Wuding Sect!

Lin Ye looked at the suppressed Ye Xi. If before, he could have laughed it off, now he couldn't smile because he clearly felt the Aura of the Flying Feather Holy Law from Ye Xi!

Killing people and taking their treasures?

This plot is simply too familiar.
