13: Chapter 13 Sisterly Love

“Congratulations, Lady Luo. Congratulations, Lord Yuan.”

Ancestor Huoyun of the Great Yan Dynasty said pleasingly to Luo Li and her husband.

He was the strongest expert of the Great Yan Dynasty, but he was only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, which was a far cry from Luo Li's level.

If she wanted to, she could slap him to death with a single strike.

Although Luo Li herself could not join this time, just her son, who was at the Golden Core Late Stage, could add a lot of combat power to the Great Yan Dynasty.

That was a Divine Beast, after all.

He alone could probably match three Cultivators of the same Realm, or even more.

“Thank you, Your Majesty Huoyun, for coming to attend my son's wedding.”

Back when Luo Li was cultivating in Great Yan, Huoyun was the emperor here and had provided her with a lot of help, so she spoke to him quite politely.

As for the current Emperor of Great Yan, he sat in the back and did not dare to say a single word. How could he have a say in front of these two ancestors?

At the entire table, besides Ancestor Huoyun and Luo Li and her husband, only Luo Tian was qualified to sit with them.

The four princes and princesses could only sit obediently with their imperial father at the table behind, quietly listening to the conversation of the table in front.

When Yuan Chen came over, the four of them were chatting idly about this and that.

Upon catching Yuan Chen's eye, Luo Li rolled her eyes.

How could she not know what kind of character her son had?

“Chen'er, are you done with your tasks? If you are, come over and sit with us.”

Yuan Chen nodded and sat down swiftly in front of Yuan Ji.

He quietly continued to signal to Luo Li.

Luo Li sighed, looked at Ancestor Huoyun, and said,

“It is indeed a bit awkward for a single young man to be squeezed in among us with nothing to talk about.”

“You young people over there, don't just watch. Come over and sit together.”

Hearing this, the four young people immediately trembled with excitement, looking at their Old Ancestor with pleading eyes.

This was a chance to associate with great figures—what an incredible opportunity!

Ancestor Huoyun's eyes flickered slightly, and his heart was also in a stir.

Hearing that Luo Tian was marrying his junior to Yuan Chen, he naturally harbored his own little thoughts.

Of course, to make things look better on the surface, he had specially brought two princes along.

However, given their status, he did not dare to let the four juniors sit over without Luo Li speaking up.

Now that he heard such an invitation, it was exactly what he wanted.

He barked toward the back,

“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get over here!”

The four young people immediately walked over in excitement.

They bowed respectfully to Luo Li before sitting down.

Leaving only the Emperor of Great Yan, Emperor Huo Du, sitting in his seat in a daze.

He watched the backs of his four children, wanting to cry but having no tears.

Luo Li had only mentioned the young people just now, so he obviously couldn't shamelessly go and sit there.

But sitting here all by himself was also incredibly awkward.

Fortunately, the head of the Luo Family was quite tactful and immediately pulled several elders over to sit with him.

“Young Master Yuan is exceptionally handsome, and Young Miss Luo is also a top-tier beauty in our Great Yan. You two becoming husband and wife is truly a match made in heaven.”

Once everyone sat down, Ancestor Huoyun immediately looked at Yuan Chen and began to praise him.

“You are too polite.”

Yuan Chen cupped his hands and spoke with extraordinary grace.

The two princesses kept sizing up his Face.

Yuan Chen was extremely handsome, and combined with his powerful strength and solid background, it was not surprising that he caught their attention.

Feeling their gazes, Yuan Chen did not show any timidity.

He looked back with a burning gaze.

Both women wore fiery-red dresses.

But their personalities were polar opposites.

Upon catching Yuan Chen's gaze,

one immediately lowered her head in embarrassment,

while the other was bolder, staring straight at Yuan Chen without looking away.

“Yanyan, do not be rude!”

Ancestor Huoyun called out.

But there was no trace of blame on his Face.

Seeing his junior hitting it off with Yuan Chen, he would be happier than anyone.

“Oh!”

Huo Yanyan lowered her head and replied with a pouty 'oh'.

Ancestor Huoyun looked at Yuan Chen.

“Young Master Yuan, my apologies. I usually spoil her too much and haven't disciplined her properly.”

Glancing at Ancestor Huoyun, Yuan Chen smiled faintly.

“It's fine. On the contrary, I think Lady Yanyan is quite cute.”

A bright light flashed in Ancestor Huoyun's eyes.

“Young Master indeed possesses extraordinary grace.”

He pulled Huo Yanyan's hand and followed up on the topic,

“This is the Seventh Princess of my royal Family. She is used to being spoiled and willful, so please forgive her if she offends you in any way, Young Master.”

After saying that, he looked at the other princess.

“This is the Ninth Princess of my royal Family, Huo Lingling. She is a bit shy. Since you are all peers, you can find some time to interact with them, Young Master.”

As for the two princes, he skipped them entirely, not even bothering to introduce them to Yuan Chen.

Clearly, he saw that Yuan Chen was indeed interested, so he immediately started promoting them.

However, this was someone else's wedding after all.

Discussing marriage directly in front of Luo Tian was somewhat inappropriate.

Thus, he used this method to communicate subtly.

He believed that Yuan Chen would definitely understand his meaning.

Ancestor Huoyun's intention was so obvious that practically everyone present could see through it.

Yuan Chen nodded with a smile.

“The royal Family's genetics are indeed excellent. Both princesses are breathtakingly beautiful.”

He was hinting repeatedly: I want both of them.

Luo Li glanced at Yuan Chen, but she didn't say much.

She went back to eating as if nothing had happened.

She hadn't eaten mortal food in a long time, and eating it now had a unique flavor.

Ancestor Huoyun was startled, also catching Yuan Chen's drift.

But he only thought for a second before saying without hesitation,

“These two children have loved to stick together since they were young. I was thinking that if they never separated for their entire lives and remained good sisters forever, that would be quite nice.”

Huo Yanyan obviously did not catch the subtext of their conversation. Upon hearing her ancestor's words, she immediately said anxiously,

“Old Ancestor, of course I will stay with my younger sister. We will be good sisters for life, inseparable.”

Huo Lingling gave her a strange look.

Then, she stealthily peeked over at Yuan Chen.

When her gaze met Yuan Chen's in midair, she immediately looked away in embarrassment.

With a smile, Yuan Chen toasted Ancestor Huoyun.

“Such an enviable sisterly bond will surely be realized.”

From Ancestor Huoyun's words, he naturally understood that the other party had agreed.

He was also stating his own stance now.

As for when to marry them, he would leave that to his mother to handle...

Luo Tian, who was sitting nearby, was no fool either, but his expression did not change in the slightest.

For one, he believed it was perfectly normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, let alone the Dragon Clan, who were widely known for their lustful nature.

Yuan Chen's behavior perfectly aligned with his perception of the Dragon Clan.

If anything, his brother-in-law was the one bringing shame to the Dragon Clan.

Moreover, as long as Xinyi married over, obtained resources, and gave birth to a dragon child, other matters wouldn't affect his Family much.

Secondly, even if he were dissatisfied, he had no right to speak.

He might as well keep his mouth shut and behave himself.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Yuan Chen did not linger.

He smiled at the two women and left the table.

He hurried toward the bridal chamber.
