Chapter 29
Elder Gu He, Today's Matter Concerns Sect Master Yun Yun's Marriage
"Dou Wang?"
At this moment, Yun Shan's aged eyes narrowed, his heart filled with immense shock. Although Shen Feng was currently using the Hidden Spirit Stone to suppress his cultivation aura to that of a one-star Dou Wang, compared to his age, even a mere one-star Dou Wang was far too shocking.
Yun Yun was about to answer Yun Shan's question, but seeing that her master was focusing all his attention on Shen Feng, she held back.
"Yun Yun, who is that young man?" Yun Shan completely forgot what he was about to ask earlier and turned to inquire about Shen Feng's identity.
"Master, he is Mite'er Shen Feng, the current Emperor of the Jiama Empire!" Hearing Yun Shan's question, Yun Yun answered honestly.
"Mite'er Shen Feng? The Emperor of the Jiama Empire?" Yun Shan was even more astonished. "The Jiama imperial family was originally of the Jia Clan. Could the Mite'er Clan have launched a coup and seized the throne? Does the Mite'er Clan even possess such strength?"
"Master, this transfer of imperial power did not cause any turmoil. It was Elder Jia of the imperial family who voluntarily abdicated!" Yun Yun continued to explain.
"Oh? Jia Xingtian actually made such a decision?" A strange look flashed across Yun Shan's face. He and Jia Xingtian had known each other for a long time and understood each other very well. He was certain that Jia Xingtian would never do such a thing voluntarily. Because of this, his suspicion toward Shen Feng grew even deeper.
"Shen Feng pays respects to Grandmaster!" Facing Yun Shan's scrutinizing gaze, Shen Feng remained calm and composed, cupping his hands in greeting.
"Young man, why do you call me Grandmaster?" Yun Shan looked puzzled. For someone who had been in seclusion for a long time, this amount of information was truly overwhelming.
"Master, Feng'er is a disciple I took in. He has been cultivating under me since he was ten years old..." Yun Yun quickly explained on Shen Feng's behalf.
"He is actually your disciple!" Yun Shan was stunned, quickly piecing everything together. He had not expected Yun Yun to recruit a disciple with such terrifying talent, let alone one who, at such a young age, had forced Jia Xingtian to surrender the imperial power.
"Haha!" A moment later, Yun Shan let out a dry laugh and praised, "Young man, you are quite something!" Turning to Yun Yun, he said, "Yun Yun, your eye for choosing disciples is indeed extraordinary. This lad will surely achieve great things in the future!"
"It is all thanks to Master's excellent guidance!" Shen Feng smiled at Yun Yun and said softly. Meeting his gaze, Yun Yun's face could not help but blush slightly.
"Yun Yun, did you call me out this time just to announce this?" Yun Shan suddenly asked.
"Master, inviting you out of seclusion this time is indeed related to Feng'er," Yun Yun replied, lowering her head slightly.
Shen Feng knew this was not something Yun Yun could easily say, so he stepped forward and spoke seriously, "Grandmaster, I will speak frankly. The reason we invited you out this time is because I intend to marry my master, and I wish to seek your approval!"
"You want to marry your own master?" Yun Shan's expression shifted, but being naturally composed, he did not react as violently as Yun Ling, nor did he immediately show his stance.
"Grandmaster, this is a Po Zong Pill, which can be considered my betrothal gift to marry Master. Please accept it, Grandmaster!" While Yun Shan was still contemplating, Shen Feng delivered his decisive blow.
"Is this really a Po Zong Pill?" Yun Shan's eyes flashed with a bright light as he quickly took the jade bottle from Shen Feng's hand to inspect it.
At this moment on the plaza, the numerous disciples and elders of the Yunlan Sect were curiously watching the three of them at the entrance of the grand hall. However, from their angle, they could not see Shen Feng handing the jade bottle to Yun Shan.
"For the sake of the sect's development, the old Sect Master will definitely not agree to this marriage!"
"Indeed, if the Sect Master marries the Emperor, wouldn't the Yunlan Sect become a vassal of the imperial family?"
"If Sect Master Yun Yun insists on this, the old Sect Master might even strip her of her position!"
Yun Ling and the other elders were all looking forward to Yun Shan rejecting this "absurd" matter. Yet, they also did not want the situation to turn too sour. If Yun Yun left and Yun Shan did not have much longer to live, the Yunlan Sect would be left without a Dou Huang to guard it, and its status would plummet.
"Haha, haha!" Suddenly, Yun Shan's hearty and pleased laughter echoed from the grand hall. Following that, everyone watched in astonishment as Yun Shan patted Shen Feng's shoulder like an old friend, and the two walked into the hall together.
"What is going on? The old Sect Master actually agreed?" Yun Ling's jaw dropped in shock.
"Yun Ling, bring the other elders inside!" Yun Shan's voice drifted out.
At the same time, Gu He, the Pill King of the sect, had also just appeared. Having been in closed-door cultivation to refine medicine for so long, he was unaware of the recent developments.
"Elder Yun Lei, the old Sect Master's exit from seclusion must mean there is an important matter?" Gu He asked curiously.
"Indeed, Elder Gu He. Today's matter concerns Sect Master Yun Yun's marriage... Let us go inside and speak further!" Yun Lei replied hastily.
