Xiao Ze was extremely touched. He could feel the love and attention in An Lin’s actions.
He had silently worked hard in the background, all for a chance to present him with this massive surprise.
Xiao Ze was touched beyond belief, but all the onlookers present were in a different situation.
At the top level of the Pill Tower.
Crack… Bam!
The hands of the golden figure crushed the railing between them.
“Calm down… Don’t be ruled by your impulses! Dominic, let’s calm down first and see how things progress… If, if Fanny really does… I’ll go kill them all then!”
The golden figure mumbled in a monologue to try and remain calm.
At this moment, on the competition platform of the dao plaza.
Deathly silence ensued.
An Lin’s condition for Fanny was simply far too astonishing.
This was the first time they had seen a bet made in order to find a dao partner for one’s disciple!
A master like this… They really wanted one as well!!
Xu Xiaolan involuntarily massaged her brows. An Lin’s actions had once again turned her impression of him upside down. Seriously though, was An Lin really not afraid of being killed by the Pill Sage?
“You…” Fanny pointed a trembling finger at him with an extremely aggrieved expression on her face. “How could you do this? How could you bully me like this?!”
An Lin was immediately displeased upon hearing this. “How is this bullying? Where are you going to find an outstanding dao partner like Xiao Ze? Aside from myself, who is more outstanding than he is?”
Fanny: “…”
All the onlookers: “…”
“But…” Fanny bit down on her lower lip. “He’s just a child…”
Fanny’s voice had only just faded when a light flashed from Xiao Ze’s body.
A handsome man with fair skin, black eyes, and an intricate dragon horn on his head appeared before Fanny.
The man wore a shy expression on his face. “Um… Ms. Fanny… I’m actually at an age where I can mate. I only adopted a younger form so that I can match my master better…”
Fanny: “…”
An Lin: “…”
What the f*ck was this about mating? Could you be any more blunt?!
Xiao Ze took a deep breath, and it was as if he had mustered up all his courage as he stared at Fanny with a heartfelt expression. “I’m not very good at expressing myself, but ever since I first laid my eyes on you, I… I felt like you were the right person.”
The two of them continued to look at each other.
In the end, it was Fanny who caved in first as she lowered her head and interlaced the fingers on her hands together.
This was the first time a member of the opposite sex had confessed to her. She couldn’t elaborate on just what type of feeling this was, but she could feel her heart rate accelerating.
“I am a dragon who has secluded himself for tens of thousands of years. I don’t know how to talk or what to say… I once used golden Realm Essence Crystals to create a Dragon Princess, which was the manifestation of the dao partner of my dreams and the Dragon Princess stayed with me throughout what seemed like an eternity…
“But today, I feel like I’ve seen the Dragon Princess come to life. Fanny… Aside from the fact that you don’t have a dragon horn, you are exactly the same as the Dragon Princess of my dreams!
“You’re proud and confident, you’re beautiful and strong, and looking at you makes me feel like I’m looking at the most glorious thing in this world. I think this might be what fate is supposed to be. After dreaming for an eternity, God finally placed you before me. You… Will you give me a chance?”
Xiao Ze stared at Fanny with an extremely genuine expression.
Fanny’s breathing was a little unstable, and her fingers twisted from side to side unconsciously. She cast a fleeting glance at Xiao Ze before immediately averting her gaze.
She was like a shy young woman who didn’t know what to do with herself.
All the onlookers, including An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, were all dumbstruck.
Didn’t he say that he didn’t know what the f*ck to say?
This was the confession of a f*cking relationship expert!!!
An Lin was extremely proud. He had helped his disciple all he could, and his disciple was not letting him down. One had created the opportunity while the other grabbed at it with both hands. What a god-like combination!
Fanny finally spoke. This time, all hints of unwillingness and distress had disappeared from her voice and replaced by an inexplicable sense of worry and curiosity. “You, what you said, is that all true? Your feelings toward me and all those other things, is that all true?”
Xiao Ze immediately pointed two fingers into the sky. “I can swear an oath to the heavens!”
Fanny pursed her lips before harrumphing with a proud expression. “I lost the bet, so… So I guess I have no choice but to give you a chance…”
Boom!
All the onlookers felt as if they had been struck by lightning upon hearing her response.
All the Pill Tower elders finally exploded.
“You can’t! Fanny!” a Pill Tower elder let loose a cry of surprise.
“Fanny, please reconsider!” the flaming humanoid elder dissuaded.
“Impudent demonic dragon, how dare you lust for the daughter of the Pill Sage?!” The crimson spider elder charged toward Xiao Ze, but Dongfang Zhuangshi only had to glare at it before it faltered in fear.
“The Pill Sage’s daughter is a precious Holy Maiden that is not to be soiled by the likes of you!” Another elder had erupted in rage. If something like this was allowed to go on, they would not be able to handle the consequences!
An Lin immediately stood up for his disciple as he pointed a finger at all the Pill Tower elders. “They’re a match made in heaven, and they’ve mutually consented to each other! Who are you monsters to object to their relationship?!”
All the elders flared up in rage.
“Oh? Then what if I object?” A golden figure suddenly appeared between Fanny and Xiao Ze, standing tall and proud with poise and elegance.
An Lin shot a glance at this unwelcome guest. “And who the hell are you?!”
“I am Fanny’s father!” the golden figure replied.
An Lin: “…”
“Father!” Fanny pursed her lips as tears welled up in her eyes again. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t live up to your expectations and become the champion. And I made a bet without telling you…”
The golden figure flicked Fanny on the forehead. “Silly girl, you’re going to lose yourself too!”
An Lin turned to the golden figure to find that he was also a humanoid creature. On top of that, he was also quite handsome, except that his skin was golden in color.
Fanny’s father was the very same Dominic who held the esteemed title of Pill Sage. This was one of the top dogs of the Opposite Shore Realm. Furthermore, it was said that his mind was quite open, and he treated all races on this continent equally, which was why he had many friends across the entire continent as well as a very good reputation.
An Lin thought to himself for a moment before deciding that it was necessary for him to fight for his disciple’s happiness.
To his surprise, Xiao Ze spoke before he could even open his mouth.
“Father! Please give me and Fanny a chance! I’ll do everything I can to satisfy your expectations!” Xiao Ze spoke with a sincere expression.
An Lin: “…”
All the other onlookers: “…”
Dominic glanced at Xiao Ze before turning to Fanny. “You’re willing to accept such a shameless dragon?”
A light blush appeared over Fanny’s intricate features. “I… I think he’s quite brave.”
An Lin: “…”
All the other onlookers: “…”
Dominic: “…”
Everyone present drew a sharp intake of breath.
All of them conceded to Xiao Ze’s skills!
“I am the daughter of the Pill Sage, and no one has ever been brave enough to say things like that to me.
“He knows who I am, but he still came forward to express his feelings. As such, I can see that his heart is true…
“Besides, I lost a bet, so why can’t I give him an opportunity? I don’t regret anything.”
This was the first time Fanny had ever said so much to her father in one go.
“Father… I want to give him a chance…”
Dominic’s body trembled as he stared at his daughter in shock.
Countless onlookers were also staring at her with incredulity.
Dominic could see a hint of determination and anticipation in her eyes.
So… She wasn’t doing this against her will?
From her eyes, it looked like she was serious!
Dominic turned toward Xiao Ze, and he could also see just how serious he was from his expression.
Even though the events that led up to this point had been rather comical, it looked like the main characters involved really were quite serious about one another… Was this really fate?
Dominic patted his own head. How had things progressed to a situation like this?
He couldn’t help but turn his eyes toward the handsome sect leader of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, An Lin.
He was looking at his beloved disciple with benevolence and encouragement in his eyes, alongside the tranquility and confidence of a man who had everything under his control.
What a terrifying man…
