380: Chapter 380 Engagement in Person

The four of them smiled at each other.

With the plan decided, they went their separate ways to act.

Ziyi left the side hall, walked through the corridor, and headed toward the main hall.

Just as she reached the entrance, a petite white figure popped out from the side.

"Sister Ziyi! Where are you going in such a rush?"

Moli tilted her innocent little face up, her large eyes darting around, wearing a smile that suggested she loved watching chaos unfold.

Ziyi's footsteps faltered: "Moli? Aren't you over there at the banquet?"

"I got tired of eating."

Moli followed at her side, skipping along with her small hands behind her back.

"I saw you coming out of the side hall looking tense. Is something big happening?"

She asked innocently, but her heart was perfectly clear.

She had seen King Blood Axe and the other two go to the side hall to find King Leiyin from afar.

Connecting that with the scene of King Xuanyin flirting with Lin Yun in the corridor, she knew without even thinking that the Lingyuan Empire couldn't sit still anymore.

Ziyi hesitated for a moment.

Moli had been present when Lin Yun was in the corridor earlier.

There was no need to hide this from her.

"King Blood Axe and King Leiyin have decided that Lin Yun will marry Fei Xue and Feiying in three days. I am going to inform Lin Yun."

Moli's eyes lit up instantly.

Like two little ignited stars, they sparkled.

"Wow! Three days later? So soon!"

She almost jumped on the spot, but she forced down her excitement and tried hard to put on a composed expression:

"Sister Ziyi, I'll go with you!"

"I spoke with Lin Yun in the corridor earlier, so we have some rapport. It will look more formal if I go too!"

Ziyi looked at her excited appearance and shook her head helplessly:

"You… you just love to join in the fun."

"I'm concerned about major events!"

Moli said righteously.

Ziyi didn't say anything more and brought her along toward the main hall.

Moli followed behind her, her little brain spinning faster than a windmill.

Marriage in three days!

Fei Xue, Feiying!

Light Sacred Body, Dark Sacred Body!

Twin sisters!

This news was too explosive!

She looked up at Ziyi's back and suddenly thought of something.

She had to let King Xuanyin know about this!

Taking advantage of the moment Ziyi wasn't paying attention, Moli quietly activated a Secret Technique to transmit her voice.

A subtle Divine Thought fluctuation, almost impossible to detect, pierced through the hall wall and accurately landed in the ears of the purple-dressed figure outside the corridor.

King Xuanyin stood at the end of the corridor, originally calming the palpitations stirred up by Lin Yun earlier.

In the next second, Moli's voice rang in her ears, filled with irrepressible excitement:

"Xuanyin, Xuanyin! There's big news!"

"King Blood Axe and the others have decided to let Lin Yun marry Fei Xue and Feiying in three days!"

"Ziyi is on her way to find Lin Yun to set the engagement in person! Do you want to come and see?"

King Xuanyin's hand, which was gripping the railing, tightened abruptly.

Her nails almost dug into the wood grain.

Three days? Marriage?

Those two twin girls?

King Xuanyin took a deep breath to calm her emotions, and a meaningful arc curled at the corners of her lips.

Fine.

Then I would like to see if this marriage can really be settled so smoothly.

She turned around, her purple dress fluttering, and walked in the direction Moli had sensed.

...

Inside the main hall, Ziyi found Lin Yun.

At that moment, he was surrounded by a group of Lingyuan dignitaries offering toasts, handling them without changing his expression, cup after cup, calm and composed.

Ziyi walked through the crowd, came to his side, and spoke softly:

"Lin Yun, come with me for a moment. King Leiyin has something to discuss with you."

Lin Yun put down his wine glass, smiled apologetically at the surrounding dignitaries, and followed Ziyi out of the lively main hall.

Moli followed behind, skipping along with an innocent look.

Passing through several corridors, the three arrived at a spacious side chamber.

In the side chamber, King Blood Axe, King Feiyun, and King Leiyin were already waiting there.

King Leiyin sat in the main seat, his face full of smiles, the joy in his eyes impossible to hide.

Seeing Lin Yun enter, he stood up to welcome him immediately.

"Lin Yun, come, sit."

Lin Yun sat down as instructed, a vague premonition forming in his heart.

He looked at the three kings, waiting for them to speak.

King Leiyin didn't beat around the bush and said directly:

"Lin Yun, I called you here because there is a major matter to discuss with you."

Lin Yun nodded slightly: "Please speak, Senior King Leiyin."

King Leiyin looked serious:

"Regarding the marriage of Fei Xue and Feiying, I have thought about it carefully and feel it cannot be delayed any longer."

"A month is too long, and there are too many variables."

"I want to move it forward. Three days from now, we will hold your wedding."

Lin Yun was slightly stunned.

He felt happy inside.

So fast? He could marry Fei Xue and Feiying in three days?

But then he thought about it.

King Leiyin had long agreed to let Fei Xue and Feiying marry him.

Marrying early or late, it was still marrying.

Besides, King Leiyin was right.

Dragging it out indeed brought many variables.

The image of King Xuanyin's stunningly beautiful face flashed through his mind, along with the flirtatious words she had said.

Settling the marriage early would also put the minds of the several kings of Lingyuan at ease.

Lin Yun did not hesitate and nodded in agreement:

"I will follow all of Senior's arrangements."

King Leiyin was overjoyed and patted Lin Yun's shoulder heavily:

"Good! Straightforward! I like your character!"

King Blood Axe and King Feiyun also breathed a sigh of relief, their faces revealing satisfied smiles.

Ziyi added from the side:

"Since it is decided, we will announce the engagement publicly at the banquet."

"Let everyone know that Lin Yun and Fei Xue and Feiying will marry in three days."

Before the words had finished, the side door of the side chamber was gently pushed open.

A purple-dressed figure walked in.

King Xuanyin.

Her posture was composed, her brows and eyes smiling, as if she were just passing by and happened to walk in.

Following behind her was the little loli Moli, who had an innocent face and was trying hard to pretend that she "knew nothing."

Moli avoided the gazes of Ziyi and King Blood Axe, shrinking behind King Xuanyin, pretending to admire the carved pillars in the side chamber.

King Leiyin's smile stiffened for a moment.

King Blood Axe and King Feiyun also frowned at the same time.

The previously relaxed atmosphere in the side chamber instantly became subtle.

King Xuanyin ignored their vigilant gazes.

She walked gracefully to a chair on the side.

She sat down naturally.

As if she had also been invited.

"Yo, why are you all looking at me?"

She smiled slightly, her eyes carrying a faint, lazy air.

"Continue your conversation. I just wanted to find a quiet place to rest my feet; I wouldn't disturb any of your important business, would I?"

King Leiyin's mouth twitched.

He looked at Ziyi, then at King Blood Axe.

King Blood Axe gave him a wink.

Since they were going to announce it publicly anyway, it was fine for her to know in advance.

King Leiyin cleared his throat and gestured to Lin Yun: "Kid, come here."

Lin Yun walked to his side.

King Leiyin faced King Xuanyin and said in a loud voice:

"Since King Xuanyin is here, that's perfect. My Lingyuan Empire has a happy event, and it just so happens to invite you to be a witness."

"Oh? What happy event?"

"Three days from now, my juniors, Fei Xue and Feiying, will officially marry Lin Yun."

"This matter has just been decided. At the banquet, we will announce it publicly."
