Chapter 163 Jin Yunteng

"This Peng Clan envoy arrived at the perfect time!"

After the guards left, Yun Canghai turned to look at Shi An and Yun Xi, and said helplessly, "You two go back to Tianren Pavilion to rest first. I'll send them back and then we'll discuss this."

However, what surprised Yun Canghai was that Shi An only exchanged glances with Yun Xi regarding his arrangement, then shook his head and said, "No need. Since Yun Xi has already assured the world, then no one else should covet it."

"I'll go with you and completely put an end to their thoughts."

After saying that, Shi An turned to look at Yun Xi and said, "You go back and rest first. I will handle this matter properly."

However, as soon as Shi An finished speaking, Yun Xi shook her head and said, "No, I want to come too."

"OK then!"

Looking at Yun Xi's firm and gentle eyes, Shi An smiled helplessly, but his heart was warm.

This is the Yun Xi he likes, soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Although she looks gentle and seems easy to bully on the surface, she is very strong deep down in her heart. Once something happens, she will never leave you alone.

After holding Yun Xi's soft little hand, Shi An turned to look at Yun Canghai and said, "Senior, let's go!"

"Row!"

Looking at the loving couple, Yun Canghai did not refuse, or perhaps he thought this arrangement was a good one, so he went out first.

Seeing this, Shi An and the other man took a step forward and followed Yun Canghai to the reception room of the Celestial Clan.

There, Jin Yunteng of the Peng clan was sitting upright in the guest seat. He looked extremely noble in his golden robe, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was confident about what was about to happen.

However, when he saw Yun Canghai appear with Shi An and Yun Xi, and the two of them entered hand in hand, the smile on Jin Yunteng's face froze, but soon returned to normal.

Then he slowly stood up, bowed slightly to Yun Canghai and said, "Grandpa Yun, it's been a while since we last met. I hope you are well."

After finishing his words, without waiting for Yun Canghai's response, Jin Yunteng looked at Yun Xi and said, "Grandpa Yun, I came here because I heard that Miss Yun Xi has returned. I came to visit her and hope that we can further discuss the matter of marriage."

"I never thought that Miss Yun Xi has already found her husband!"

There was a barely perceptible chill in his words as his eyes swept over Shi An, clearly displeased with this "uninvited guest".

At the same time, seeing their young master's attitude, the other members of the Peng clan behind him immediately started to act sarcastic.

"How dare a mere human dare to challenge my Peng clan? Don't you know how to look at yourself in the mirror when you piss yourself?"

"That's right, a nobody dares to compete with Taikoo Pengshan?"

·······
Hearing these harsh words, Shi An's expression did not change, and his aura did not change at all, as if he was facing a group of insignificant ants.

On the contrary, after hearing the Peng people slandering Shi An, Yun Xi's eyebrows immediately raised, her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent, and she scolded: "Jin Yunteng, is this how you treat guests at Taikoo Peng Mountain?!"

Clearly, despite her usual gentle demeanor, she wouldn't remain silent when it came to Shi An or someone she'd chosen. Meanwhile, Yun Canghai's face darkened. After glancing at the chattering Peng people, he declared, "Since the Peng people have come to us, we at Tianshen Mountain will treat them as honored guests. But if you don't know the proper etiquette, I'm afraid I'll have to personally visit Taikoo Peng Mountain and ask Brother Luantian!"

Seeing Yun Canghai getting angry, Jin Yunteng stopped and waved his hands quickly, putting on a smile on his face: "Please don't blame me, Grandpa Yun, they just spoke carelessly."

After saying that, Jin Yunteng glanced coldly at the Peng people behind him, and everyone suddenly fell silent.

Then, Jin Yunteng looked at Shi An again, with a forced smile: "I wonder where this brother is from, and what means he used to win the heart of Miss Yun Xi?"

Hearing this, Shi An took a step forward and chuckled, "You haven't heard of me?"

"Oh?"

Facing Shi An's words, Jin Yunteng's face flashed with surprise, and then he said: "From what you said, it seems that he is quite famous."

"However, I beg your pardon. I have been traveling outside the domain in recent years and have not set foot in the Desolate Domain for a long time. Therefore, I am not very familiar with some of the heroes who have recently risen in the Desolate Domain."

Of course, Jin Yunteng was not really unaware of who the other party was. After all, the battle between Shi Anyu and the man with divine flame in the Xushen Realm shook the entire Eight Realms, but as the saying goes, the first step to defeat the enemy is to suppress the enemy.

He pretended not to know on purpose, firstly to test Shi An's background, and secondly to intimidate Shi An. He said, "Although you seem to be very powerful, you are just a rising star in front of me. You don't even have the qualifications to let me know."

Shi An was well aware of Jin Yunteng's subtle thoughts, but he didn't point them out. He just smiled and said, "I'm afraid that people in the upper realms have heard about my affairs."

"I can't believe that Brother Jin, the grandson of the ancient Peng clan leader, with such status and position, is so ignorant and complacent. It really makes me doubt the future of the Peng clan."

"Ok?"

Shi An's blunt sarcasm immediately made Jin Yunteng, who had been quite calm, look cold. His pupils were like little suns, and golden beams of light burst out as they opened and closed.

"Brother, you are truly eloquent. I'm afraid Miss Yunxi was deceived by your eloquence and made such an unwise move!"

After saying this, Jin Yunteng turned to look at Yun Canghai and said, "Grandpa Yun, I believe you also know why my clan and your Tianren clan are marrying each other. This is all to prepare for the great catastrophe. Your clan has the formation, and my clan has the formation diagram. The marriage is related to the future of both clans. I hope Grandpa Yun will think twice."

"Yun Teng is right!"

At this moment, a voice of agreement was heard, and an old man walked in from outside the hall.

It was Yun Jinhai, the Celestial Clan elder who was close to the Peng Clan. He was half Peng and half Celestial Clan, and was also a powerful and revered leader.

"Brother, I know you're concerned about the powerful person behind this kid, but we're about to leave this world and head to the upper realm. Why are you still like this?"

Yun Jinhai walked into the reception room, his eyes darting back and forth between Shi An and Yun Xi, his expression unmistakable in his dignity. "Yun Xi, as a member of the Celestial Race, you should prioritize your clan. Marrying into the Peng Clan will greatly benefit both of our clans, so you must not act capriciously."

Yun Xi frowned upon hearing this, and was about to open her mouth to refute, but Shi An gently pressed his shoulder. Shi An took a step forward, looking directly at Yun Jinhai, and said in a steady and firm voice, "Elder, you are wrong."

"The desolate calamity concerns all living things. How can we use a personal marriage as a bargaining chip? Furthermore, Yun Xi already has someone in her heart. If we force a marriage, it will only increase hatred and do nothing to benefit either clan."
