Her heart felt ice-cold, and toward that Lu Shui Talisman Whispering Yuanzhen Perfected Lord above her, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness:
'Who could possibly intervene in the schemes of the three Perfected Lords of Yue Country?'
Li Xuanfeng listened silently at the side, doing his best to gather information, slowly piecing things together. Yet the Perfected Person before him showed no intention of saying more, only slapped his shoulder forcefully and laughed:
"Li Xuanfeng, since you are not yet married, why not take a member of my Ning Family as your wife?"
Li Xuanfeng froze on the spot; before he could speak, Yuan Su Perfected Person narrowed his eyes in a smile and said:
"Wan'er is out of the question for you. She has the bearing of Zifu; your path would be hard trodden."
Seeing his expression, Li Xuanfeng understood he could not refuse, and Yuan Su spoke softly:
"He Mian is quite good. Settle it quickly; do not delay."
...
Li Family, Lijing Mountain.
