Chapter 2879 The Marriage is Confirmed!

Seeing her godfather's reaction, Xiao Xueyu was unsure whether Wang Yue was a bad person or not, so she could only bite the bullet and say, "Because I saw the two of them being chased away by thugs, and I even went to help them at the time."

I have a deep impression of him, and I am quite familiar with his appearance, but I don't know why, his temperament seems to have changed.

If the young Taoist priest was somewhat timid before, he now seems unusually confident, which is rather puzzling.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Xilou abruptly asked, "Xueyu, you said that little Taoist priest was staring at you?"

Xiao Xueyu blushed immediately upon hearing Xiao Xilou's words, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "That's what your little brother's friend said; I didn't see it with my own eyes."

Sun Huishan immediately understood her husband's meaning. At the same time, she keenly sensed that Xiao Xueyu had a fondness for their eldest son, Xiao Yiren.

Regardless, Xiao Xueyu was the daughter they said they wanted to adopt. Although people in the martial arts world don't pay much attention to etiquette, it still didn't sound good to others.

Moreover, Sun Huishan could also see that Xiao Yiren didn't like Xiao Xueyu at all, and only treated Xiao Xueyu as a younger sister. Xiao Xueyu probably didn't even know whether it was familial affection or romantic love.

So Sun Huishan said with a smile, "Our cod is so beautiful, that young Taoist priest will definitely like him. I just don't know if he can get married. Some Taoist sects don't allow marriage."

Seeing his wife's cooperation, Xiao Xilou said matter-of-factly, "I've always felt that our daughter has grown up. What kind of heroic figure could be worthy of our daughter?"

Now that such a young master has suddenly appeared, I must do everything I can to keep our Xueyu here. If this Taoist priest can't get married, then so be it.

But for the sake of the fish, we have to ask them.

Xiao Xueyu, after being persuaded by her adoptive parents' coordinated actions, suddenly felt that it might actually be true.

In any case, among the young people he knew, there were probably none as capable as Wang Yue.

Moreover, the Xiao family has been incredibly kind to me, so it seems like it would be worthwhile to help them win over such a skilled expert.

Moreover,
That young Taoist priest was quite handsome!
When Xiao Xueyu thought this, her face couldn't help but turn red.

Xiao Xilou and Sun Huishan noticed Xiao Xueyu's reaction and immediately prepared some gifts to visit her grave the next day!

However, after the three arrived at the Taoist temple on the mountain, they accidentally discovered that the scene of the four people practicing martial arts that they had imagined did not appear at all; the Taoist temple was empty!
Xiao Xilou immediately became serious. He looked at Xiao Xueyu and asked, "What's wrong?"

Knowing that her father was worried that she was lying to people for Xiao Qiushui's sake, Xiao Xueyu rushed into the Taoist temple and shouted, "Little Taoist priest, where is my brother?"

Upon hearing Xiao Xueyu's voice, Wang Yue quickly rushed out. He said with some surprise, "Miss Xiao, didn't your brother go home? All four of them came to ask me for leave."

Xiao Xueyu immediately realized that her younger brother was being playful again. Knowing that she had caused him trouble, she quickly asked with a smile, "Oh, oh, how's my brother's lightness skill practice going?"

Wang Yue noticed Xiao Xueyu's wink and immediately understood that she was trying to help cover it up. He smiled and said, "Xiao Qiushui's lightness skill has reached a certain level. Combined with his swordsmanship, he can go anywhere in the world now. Anyway, he can escape even if he can't win, so you can rest assured."

Xiao Xueyu then smiled and turned to Xiao Xilou and Sun Huishan, saying...

"Father and Mother, look, even the little Taoist priest said so. Qiu Shui must be tired from practicing, that's why she wants to go out and play."

"Hmph~!"

Xiao Xilou snorted coldly, then said helplessly, "You just keep spoiling him. Sooner or later he'll cause a big disaster."

Sun Huishan was naturally displeased when Xiao Xilou mentioned her daughter, and quickly said, "Alright, don't we have important business to attend to?"

Xiao Xilou's attention was indeed diverted. He smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with Wang Yue, even offering incense to the old Daoist Baiyun, before abruptly asking,
"Wang Yue, I heard from Xueyu that you have very high martial arts skills. It's normal for your master to hide his skills, but you are only a little older than Qiushui. Why are you so strong?"

Since Wang Yue wanted to deceive people, he naturally needed a plausible reason, so he smiled and said...

"To be honest, Uncle Xiao, in our Baiyun Temple lineage, the master is responsible for cultivation, and the disciple is responsible for cultivating the mind. When the master's lifespan is about to end, if the disciple's cultivation of the mind is still good, the master will pass on the internal energy to the disciple."

I just feel this is too cruel, so I don't plan to continue this tradition. I want to take on more apprentices and try to train some of them to be useful.

Xiao Xilou had never heard of such martial arts before, but there are many strange and unusual things in the martial arts world, so it is normal that he did not know them.

He wasn't there to pry; as long as the reason was valid, he could let Xueyu come over.

Then, he suddenly changed his tone and said, "Since you're planning to make a change, have you thought about marriage? What do you think of my adopted daughter?" Wang Yue immediately understood Xiao Xilou's intention, and he said with a smile, "Miss Xueyu is intelligent and kind-hearted, of course she is very admirable!"

"Haha~!"

Xiao Xilou laughed heartily before saying, "If you call me uncle, I'll shamelessly become your elder. How about I, your adopted daughter, marry you?"

After hearing this, Wang Yue felt very strange. Xiao Xilou actually wanted Xiao Xueyu to marry right now. Wasn't that a bit too slow?

Wang Yue reacted very quickly. He felt that the Huanhua Sword Sect probably had something important to do and wanted to use the wedding to divert attention.

Wang Yue also felt that it was just a matter of cooperating. In the future, he would have someone to accompany him in this Taoist temple, and he could also lock onto Xiao Qiushui, which would buy more time for his salted fish system to devour her. It was a win-win-win situation!
Therefore, Wang Yue took out the manuals of the Blinking Sword Technique and the Luo Yan Step from his bosom, and solemnly said to Xiao Xilou, "Uncle, if you don't mind, I am willing to offer the two manuals as a betrothal gift and ask you to marry Miss Xueyu to me."

Xiao Xilou took the manual without hesitation and said with a smile, "Alright, alright, since you're so sincere, the marriage is settled then."

Two months later, on the second day of the lunar new year, which is an auspicious day according to the Chinese almanac, let's set the wedding date for that day.

Sun Huishan smiled without saying a word, but handed the engagement letter in her hand to Wang Yue, and the marriage between the two parties was now completely settled.

Xiao Xueyu blushed instantly. She hadn't expected the marriage to be arranged so hastily, with the engagement being finalized on the spot.

Wang Yuequan understood that two months later, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, there would be no moon, and it would be pitch black, making it easy to secretly escort someone away.

Although Wang Yue had guessed it, he still calmly agreed, "I will do whatever my father-in-law says!"

Upon hearing Wang Yue's reply, Xiao Xilou laughed heartily and said, "Alright, we men and women of the martial world don't have so many reservations. You young people can chat together. Your mother-in-law and I will head back first."

Sun Huishan smiled at the two of them and followed Xiao Xilou out of the Taoist temple. After they had gone a little further, she asked with a smile, "Xilou, you settled on it so easily? You think highly of this young Taoist priest?"

Xiao Xilou had already suppressed his smile and said seriously, "This person looks upright and righteous, has high martial arts skills, and is not arrogant at all. Where can we find a better match for Xueyu?"

Sun Huishan nodded, pondering how to arrange her dowry when she got back.

After her adoptive parents left, Xiao Xueyu looked at Wang Yue and asked rather abruptly,
"Our wedding was so abrupt, don't you have any questions?"

Wang Yue knew that there was no need to beat around the bush with smart people. He looked at Xiao Xueyu and said very calmly, "There is no such thing as a free lunch. Miss Xueyu is so beautiful and is the daughter of the Huanhua Sword Sect. There must be something important going on in the way she is marrying me in such a hurry."

Now that I've become your husband, I naturally have to bear some of the dangers you bring, but I'm confident I can protect you.

Xiao Xueyu was initially a little panicked, but she quickly realized that her adoptive parents were not the kind of people who liked to force her.

But the reason why this arrangement is being made so hastily is probably because Xiao Xilou really values ​​Wang Yue's character, and he wants to kill two birds with one stone.

However, considering that Xiao Xilou and Sun Huishan usually treated her very well, she realized that something serious must have happened.

Xiao Xueyu now saw that I understood Wang Yue, yet I was still willing to accept it, which made him feel that I was very responsible. So he smiled and said, "Since you know, then I'm relieved."

After Xiao Xueyu finished speaking, Wang Yue seemed at a loss for words, and the atmosphere between them became somewhat awkward. He pondered for a moment, then said…

"Your brother and his three junior brothers asked for leave together. I'm afraid they're young and impulsive, wanting to do chivalrous things!"

But they're still young. Why don't we go down the mountain together to look for them? If I encounter any danger, I can help them."

Xiao Xueyu felt that it wasn't really a good idea for the two of them to stay on the mountain; it would be better if they went to find Xiao Qiushui together.

……

Meanwhile, Xiao Qiushui, along with his three junior brothers, first conducted an on-site investigation and indeed discovered that Jin Yin Qianzhuang not only engaged in usury and collected protection fees, but also forced some ordinary boatmen to pay management fees.

Xiao Qiushui, Zuoqiu Chaoran, Deng Yuhan, and Tang Rou officially confirmed that everyone at the Gold and Silver Bank was a bad guy, and immediately stormed into the Gold and Silver Bank's headquarters.

After nearly half a year of training, each of the four men possessed unique martial arts skills, and their combined abilities made them far beyond the capabilities of the gang's low-level henchmen.

They easily defeated the gold and silver money exchange and also found their mastermind, the iron-fisted demon Pu Tianyi.
