Phoenix Emperor
Chap 91's. He's not a bet!

Out of curiosity, Zhu Guang then led the two of them towards the courtyard behind his residence, where he used to use as a training ground and was extremely spacious.

Upon arrival in the backyard, Yin Feng then waved his hand, instantly in front of them appeared the carcass of a nine-headed snake that had been charred in flames.

"It's..." Zhu Guang was at a loss for words, he really did not expect that Yin Feng and his disciple could kill that calamity-carrying beast.

"Hows it? Can you trust me now?" asked Yin Feng.

"If the evidence is in sight, only fools are still trying to deny it."

"Although that's the case, I still can't let you attack the Ye clan."

"Other reason?"

Zhu Guang let out a long sigh, then explained that the Ye clan had ties to the Wind Tiger clan, as well as having cooperation ties with the Azure Dragon clan.

Therefore, attacking them would be tantamount to wreaking havoc, as the Wind Tiger clan and the Azure Dragon clan would not let this pass.

"It doesn't matter if you attack them, but think of Ling'er. After all, she's your future wife."

Yin Feng directed his gaze at Duan Ling, with his current strength, it was impossible for him to protect Duan Ling from the two clans.

In order to avoid trouble, Yin Feng could have escaped as far as possible, but what would become the outlet of their anger would later be the Light Pillar sect.

"Bright... All right, I'll be quiet for a while, but if they act, then I'll do the same."

For now, Yin Feng could only let go of the Ye clan, but that did not mean he would forget about the matter and it could be said that he was just waiting for the right moment.

After Yin Feng stored back the body of the nine-headed snake, Zhu Guang then invited the two to return to the main hall, as there was still something they had to discuss.

Upon arrival at the main hall, Zhu Guang called all the sect elders to join the discussion, as what he wanted to discuss was the marriage of Yin Feng and Duan Ling.

"Why should we invite the elders?" asked Yin Feng.

"Certainly have to invite them, as they are the caretakers and important members of this sect" Zhu Guang replied.

"I know that, but somehow I feel a bad feeling" Yin Feng said.

"Just calm down, the elders of this sect are neither from the Ye clan nor the two ruling clans."

Yin Feng did not say anything more, because what he was worried about was not the Ye clan or the other two clans, but rather someone else who could become an enemy in a blanket.

In this world, loyalty was something extremely rare. Everyone could say the word easily, but not many of them could prove it.

Sometimes, in a matter of seconds, the loyalty that has just been said can instantly turn into a very painful betrayal.

Not long after, the elders of the Light Pillar sect entered the main hall, their gaze immediately fixed on the unfamiliar looking Yin Feng in their eyes.

But the elders seemed to ignore his existence and they all immediately sat in their seats.

"Thank you for coming, elders" said Zhu Guang.

"Patriark, what happened? Why was Ye Ming's facial expression so unsightly when he left this place?" ask the first elder.

"I rejected his proposal" Zhu Guang replied.

"Thank God, that arrogant young man does not deserve to be part of this sect, let alone be with Ling'er" said the fourth elder.

"Since the proposal has been rejected, how about we discuss the problem at that time?" the seventh elder spoke up.

"Really! Isn't this a good time to determine who deserves to be Ling'er's partner?" the second elder chimed in.

Long before the Ye clan had applied for a marriage proposal, the elders of the Light Pillar sect had already proposed to Duan Ling to be the wife of their disciple.

But until now, not a single proposal had been accepted or rejected by Duan Ling, because Duan Ling did not want to offend the sect elders whom he respected so much.

As well as Duan Ling, Zhu Guang also had not given them an answer, as he did not want to interfere in the matter of choosing his student's life partner.

"Patriark, if you don't have a solution yet, how about we have a tournament?"

"Tournament? What's for?" asked Zhu Guang.

"This tournament will be attended by all students who like Ling'er, whoever the winner will be, then he will be her husband" replied the third elder.

"Sorry, but my future wife is not a bet item you can fight over!"

Yin Feng who was originally just silent finally spoke up, because he thought their discussion had been so outrageous that it made him upset and feel fed up.

"Son, you don't know yourself, how dare you interrupt our conversation!"

"After all, what do you mean say that?!"

"As you have heard, Duan Ling is my future wife and I will not let you do your best!"

"Patriark, what does this mean?!"

The elders looked shocked and must have been unhappy with Yin Feng's statement, because he was just an outsider and Zhu Guang instead chose him as Duan Ling's husband.

"Ling'er has already chosen her future husband, so I can't argue" Zhu Guang said.

"Can't! We all cannot accept this decision!"

"Then what do you guys want, you fucking parents?!" yin Feng said.

"Have a mouth, boy!"

"What's the problem? After all I am not a disciple of this sect who should bow down under your feet!" yin Feng said.

"Yin Feng, calm yourself down" Duan Ling tried to calm her future husband down.

"How am I supposed to calm down when you're made into a bet by them?!"

"Look! As long as I'm patient, you better clear that intention, if not..."

"If it's okay? What can a snot boy like you do?!"

"Enough, don't go on!" zhu Guang said.

"Can't! We have to teach this rancid boy a lesson."

"Yin Feng, I beg you, stop all this" Duan Ling asked.

"Bright..." Yin Feng let out a long breath to calm himself down. "Then, what should I do?"

"It's easy, if you want Ling'er, then you must follow our rules" said the second elder.

"That tournament?"

"Really! Prove that you deserve to be Ling'er's partner!"

Yin Feng clenched his fists, he obviously did not like the way the elders of the sect did, yet he had no other way but to obey the wishes of those old men.

Actually he had another way, but his way would not make Duan Ling and Zhu Guang happy, because the way he thought about was to get rid of the elders.

"All right, I'll come!" yin Feng said.

"Good, he's another day this tournament will be held."

"What do you think, patriarch?"

"Since both sides have agreed, then there is no reason for me to reject it.
