Chapter 19 Are you willing to marry Xuemei to my disciple?
"Today, a noble person from the royal family is coming to Black Rock City!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present became solemn!
After all, although the status of the royal family in the Jia Ma Empire cannot be said to be supreme, it can also be said to be quite authoritative.
Especially this generation of overweight royal family, with Jia Xingtian, a nine-star peak Dou Huang, sitting in charge, and a Dou Emperor-level exotic beast, the Nether Sea Dragon Beast, which is so powerful that it can even slightly suppress the Yunlan Sect that has stood for thousands of years. p>
This is something that previous generations of royal families simply couldn’t do.
Seeing that everyone was shocked, the well-informed person continued: "It was precisely because the nobleman came from the royal family and wanted to see Zhou Chen by name that the city lord had to let her genius disciple.
Attend this ceremony."
At this point, the man changed the topic and said with a hint of ridicule: "Otherwise, with the cautious personality of City Lord Linning, she would rather not let her disciples go out until they reach the Douhuang realm."
"Haha, that's right..."
"Yes, yes!"
"I'm so tired from dealing with City Lord Linning these years. She's too suspicious."
Representatives of many forces present complained about Lin Ning's overly cautious character, and some even laughed out loud.
Anyway, Lin Ning is not here now, so it’s no big deal if we all say a few words to her.
The law does not punish everyone!
But while everyone in the audience was chatting noisily, Zhou Chen's expression couldn't help but change a few times.
In fact, Zhou Chen originally did not want to participate in today's ceremony.
Even if I agreed to Lin Fei before, it was just a slap in the face.
But last night, Master came late at night and asked him to participate in today's activities, but did not tell him the reason.
Now Zhou Chen understands that there is someone from the royal family who wants to see him!
This is an irresistible factor.
No wonder Lin Ning looked a little tired last night.
Moreover, it is obvious that some information about Zhou Chen has been leaked.
If not, how could anyone from the royal family notice him as a seven-year-old child?
And this was not beyond Zhou Chen’s expectation.
After all, the passing geese leave their sounds and the passing people leave their traces. There is no airtight wall.
However, I don’t know what attitude the Royal Family has towards him.
After thinking carefully for a moment, Zhou Chen felt that it was probably mostly good intentions.
Otherwise, the royal family can kill them directly, so why bother?
And just as Zhou Chen was deep in thought, that very special cold voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Little brother, how do you practice? How can you break through to the sixth level of fighting spirit at such a young age?"<
/p>
Who are you calling little brother?
Not polite.
Zhou Chen, whose train of thought was interrupted, turned his head unhappily and looked at the source of the sound.
It is the iceberg beauty Snow Charm.
However, at this time, Xuemei's red lips were slightly open, and her beautiful eyes were staring at Zhou Chen, with a little extra sparkle in her silver pupils.
Now she is eleven years old, and her cultivation level is only at the sixth level of Dou Qi, while Zhou Chen was able to reach it at the age of seven.
This kind of talent is much better than hers.
Seeing Xuemei's expression, Zhou Chen was not surprised.
Although this girl seems to have a cold temperament, she is extremely strong-willed.
In the original work, Xuemei even said: As long as anyone of the younger generation in Black Rock City surpasses her, she will sleep with him.
In other words, as long as you are stronger than her, you have a good chance of defeating her.
Raising his eyebrows, Zhou Chen was preparing Xuemei to respond and realize his dream of adding family members as soon as possible, but Lin Fei on the side suddenly took a step forward and stood up.
She was like an old hen guarding her chickens. She looked at Xuemei unhappily and said, "What's that expression on your face? Your eyes are almost wired. Are you having sex? As a best friend, you can't
I have thoughts about my Xiaochen."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Xuemei retorted helplessly and immediately counterattacked: "Linfei, you are really tight-lipped. You haven't leaked any information about Xiaochen in all these years."
"Don't call him Xiaochen, the relationship between you is not that close yet!"
Lin Fei was not weak at all and started to fight.
Although the conversation between the two is basically wrong, this is the basic operation of quarrels between women.
Just talk about emotions, no logic, it's just a magic attack.
Seeing this scene, Frank and Otto, two teachers on the side, couldn't help but look at each other and smiled bitterly at each other.
The head of the Xue family, who was also Xue Mei's uncle, was sitting not far away. At this time, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a look of anticipation flashed in his old eyes.
If Xue Mei can really get close to a young genius like Zhou Chen, it will be of great benefit to the future of the entire Xue family.
As for the quarrel between Lin Fei and Xuemei, from the perspective of the head of the Xue family who has experienced all kinds of life, it is just a harmless jealousy between children.
"Okay, you two should stop bickering in public."
Seeing that the two women were beginning to get into a real fight, Frank had no choice but to give orders.
In an instant, Lin Fei and Xuemei shut up.
It can be seen that the president of the Black Rock City Alchemist Branch is still somewhat dignified.
"Hmm."
Xue Mei, who had a cold personality, took the lead in humming and sat down next to her teacher Frank.
Without her opponent, Linfei had no choice but to stop talking and pulled Zhou Chen to sit next to her teacher Otto.
As soon as she sat down, Lin Fei leaned into Zhou Chen's ear and whispered: "Xiao Chen, stay away from that woman Xuemei from now on, do you understand?"
"This..."
Upon hearing Lin Fei's request, Zhou Chen hesitated for a moment, then blinked his eyes, looked at Lin Fei with a serious face, and said speechlessly: "I know."
However, Zhou Chen, who was a little unwilling, still asked: "But aren't you and Xuemei good best friends?"
"Yes, so what."
Lin Fei glanced at Zhou Chen, who looked "innocent", and immediately replied confidently: "My mother has said since she was a child that the better your best friend is, the more careful you must be."
After hearing this, Zhou Chen called him a good guy.
It seems that Master Lin Ning is a person with a story, and she actually knows how to prevent fire, theft, and best friends.
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
Just when Zhou Chen was secretly complaining about his master, Lin Fei next to him suddenly sat up straight and whispered: "Mother is here."
Hearing this, Zhou Chen suddenly came back to his senses and looked up.
He saw his cheap master Lin Ning walking toward the auditorium surrounded by several elders of the Lin family.
Today, her exquisite body is wrapped in a purple dress, looming, looking noble and alluring.
Seeing Lin Ning coming over, representatives of various forces sitting in the audience, including Frank and Otto, two fourth-level alchemists, also stood up.
"I've met the City Lord!"
"The city lord is fine."
"You have lost weight again. It looks like you are tired and thin."
Some people greeted me politely, some were flattering, and some just wanted to look familiar.
And Lin Ning is indeed a person who is good at dancing. She can handle the conversation with so many people with ease, showing her mature charm with every smile.
After saying a few polite words to everyone, Lin Ning came to Frank and Otto alone.
Frank and Otto are both powerful spirit warriors and fourth-grade alchemists. When combined, even some powerful warriors may not be as noble as they are in terms of reputation and status.
Therefore, although the two of them stood up just now, they relied on their status and did not greet Lin Ning with the others, but waited for her to come over on her own initiative.
Zhou Chen and Lin Fei couldn't leave Otto and the others alone, so they waited here.
"Mother!"
"Master, you are here."
Seeing Lin Ning approaching, Zhou Chen, Lin Fei and Xuemei immediately greeted her respectfully.
Hearing the greetings from the three people, Lin Ning first smiled sweetly, then stepped forward to touch Zhou Chen's little head, looked at Frank and Otto, and said softly:
"Two masters, there are too many guests today. Please forgive me if there is insufficient hospitality."
"Haha, you're welcome."
Frank smiled and waved his hand and said.
Otto on the side said rather unfavorably: "City Lord Ning, I just heard someone say that someone from the Gama royal family is coming today?"
Hearing this, Lin Fei's expression changed instantly, then returned to normal, and said with a smile: "The master's information is really well-informed. The royal chariot is indeed on the way here."
"Who is this person from the royal family?"
Frank couldn't help but said curiously.
"This..."
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Ning declined politely: "The whereabouts and identities of royal nobles have always been a top priority. Please forgive me, master."
Hearing this, Frank laughed and said: "Understood. Then we will wait until the royal family arrives. By then, their identity will naturally be known."
Lin Ning nodded with a smile and chatted with the two alchemy masters for a while. Then she turned her eyes and looked at Zhou Chen, Lin Fei and Xuemei who were standing aside obediently.
"Come on, Xiaochen, come here."
Lin Ning waved and stuffed Zhou Chen into her arms, hugging him tightly.
And because Zhou Chen is still small, the tip of his nose can only reach Lin Ning's chest, and his face is pressed very close to each other, making it difficult to breathe.
Turning over in Lin Ning's arms with difficulty, Zhou Chen raised his head slightly, only to find that the master at this time was staring at Xue Mei with a pair of beautiful eyes, his eyes complex.
Xuemei was obviously frightened by the city lord's gaze. She hesitated for a few seconds, then summoned up the courage to ask in a low voice: "Do you have something to say to me?"
"You girl, you are really smart."
Lin Ning nodded, and her eyes softened when she looked at Xuemei: "Go and invite your uncle over. I have something to discuss."
The "uncle" in Lin Ning's mouth is the head of the Xue family, Xue Qinghe, and one of the five powerful spirit fighters in Black Rock City.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Xuemei immediately agreed.
However, when Xue Mei turned around, she found that her uncle Xue Qinghe, who was sitting on a seat not far away, had appeared behind her.
However, it is not difficult to understand.
After all, fighting spirit warriors have sharp ears and eyes, so Xue Qinghe naturally heard Lin Ning’s invitation as they were not far away.
At that moment, he didn't dare to neglect, got up immediately, and was there in a blink of an eye.
"I wonder if City Lord Ning wants to discuss something important with me, an old man like me?"
Xue Qinghe, who was over fifty and had slightly gray hair on his temples, raised his hands and clasped his fists, and said rather politely.
"I just want to ask Mr. Xue a question."
Lin Ning did not beat around the bush, but said directly: "Are you willing to betroth this girl Xuemei to my disciple?"
