My Seven Sisters Are Stunningly Beautiful (The Return of the Gods)

The news that Miss Ge was going to throw out a bouquet to find a husband had been circulating in Cangwu City for almost a month.

This young lady of the Ge family is a legendary figure. It is said that she has been practicing in the Ge family's Bishui Pavilion, which is full of spiritual energy, since she was born and has never stepped out.

Now, it is finally going to appear at this Hydrangea Convention. No wonder people from Cangwu City and even several nearby cities are rushing to join in the fun.

"Hey Ge Wen, does your young lady have someone she likes?" Shen Yuanbao grabbed a handful of melon seeds in one hand and cracked them with a "crackling" sound, while turning to ask Ge Wen beside him.

Ge Wen smiled helplessly. This was the eighteenth time Shen Yuanbao had asked this question today. "Brother Shen, didn't I tell you before that my sister has been practicing in the Bishui Pavilion since she was young and has never been out. How could she find someone she likes?"

"That's not necessarily true," Shen Yuanbao winked, "Maybe your sister has already fallen in love with him, but because of family rules, she can't say it out loud. If there really is such a person, why not let him marry into the Ge family directly? Why bother with this trick of throwing the embroidered ball? Isn't this embarrassing for your sister?"

"Brother Shen, please stop guessing," Ge Wen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If my sister really has someone she likes, how can I, as her younger brother, stop her? To be honest, my sister is not young anymore, so my parents wanted to hold this hydrangea convention so that she can find her ideal husband as soon as possible. My sister herself agreed, saying that she wanted to see the young talents in the world."

Shen Yuanbao curled his lips, obviously not satisfied with Ge Wen's explanation, and muttered: "Who knows if he was forced to do it..."

At this time, Lu Yun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "Brother Ge, if your sister doesn't choose someone she likes in today's competition, what should we do?"

Ge Wen sighed, "Then we can only choose another day to hold it. However, our Ge family doesn't lack this little time and resources, so it doesn't matter if we hold it a few more times until my sister finds the person she likes."

The area around the arena was bustling with noise and people were busy, all eager to try their best to win the competition and catch a glimpse of Miss Ge, not to mention the generous dowry and the opportunity to practice in the Bishui Pavilion.

With the loud shout of Butler He: "The Hydrangea Competition has officially begun! Those who are interested, please come on stage and compete!" The crowd suddenly exploded like a pot of boiling water, and the noise became even louder.

Lu Yun and Shen Yuanbao looked towards the arena at the same time. The young men who were eager to try before now looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one dared to go on stage first.

Lu Yun noticed this scene and smiled faintly: "It seems that the first person to come on stage may not be a good thing."

Shen Yuanbao asked curiously, "What do you mean, Brother Lu?"

Lu Yun explained: "Think about it, the first person to go on stage can certainly seize the initiative, but at the same time he will also become the target of public criticism. If he is not strong enough, he may not even make it through the first round. Isn't that a waste of opportunity?"

Shen Yuanbao suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. In your opinion, how long can that kid last?"

Lu Yun's eyes fell on the thin young man on the stage and shook his head. "It's hard to say. His cultivation is only at the early stage of Golden Immortal. He is not outstanding among the contestants. There are many people who are stronger than him. However, this competition allows the use of elixirs and weapons, and killing is not allowed. Who knows what tricks he may have up his sleeve."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burly middle-aged man jumped onto the stage. He had a face full of flesh and a gleam in his eyes. It was obvious at first glance that he was a veteran who had been through many battles.

There was a sudden booing from the audience, and someone whispered, "You are already old, and you still have the nerve to come to the hydrangea conference. Aren't you ashamed?"

"What do you know? The Ge family is a wealthy family, and they have the Bishui Pavilion, which is a great place for cultivation. Even if I marry into the family, it would be a great thing!"

"That's true. Who can go against resources these days?"

Before everyone could finish their discussion, another white-haired old man slowly walked onto the stage. His face was covered with wrinkles, but that couldn't hide the shrewd light in his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and without any unnecessary words, they started fighting. The old man looked old, but his moves were extremely swift, and his palms were fierce, and his moves were directed at the middle-aged man's vital points. The middle-aged man was not to be outdone, and he swung a huge axe in his hand with great vigor, and for a while he was evenly matched with the old man.

In the end, the old man was more skilled and knocked the middle-aged man off the ring with one palm, winning the first match.

In the following competition, contestants came on stage one after another. There were young and energetic teenagers, as well as shrewd old men, but without exception, their faces were filled with the desire for victory.

Lu Yun looked at the contestants on the stage who were willing to fight in order to marry into the Ge family, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It seems that the resources of the Ge family and the Bishui Pavilion are really attractive."

Shen Yuanbao echoed, "Of course. The Ge family is the most prominent immortal cultivation family in Cangwu City. Who wouldn't want to marry into this family?"

"It's just..." Ge Wen hesitated to speak, a trace of worry on his face.

"Just what?" Shen Yuanbao asked curiously.

"It's just that, looking at these contestants, most of them come here for my family's resources and the Bishui Pavilion, and they don't really want to marry my sister," Ge Wen sighed, "Do you think my sister... can she really find happiness?"

Shen Yuanbao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Brother Ge, you are too worried! Your sister is a proud daughter of heaven, and the eldest daughter of the Ge family. As long as she is willing, there is no man she can't find? Besides, even if these contestants come for your family's resources, so what? As long as they are sincere to you, isn't that enough?"

Ge Wen smiled bitterly and said nothing. Of course, he hoped that his sister could find happiness, but when he saw the contestants fighting for their interests on the stage, there was always a lingering haze in his heart.

The first defender, after five tough battles, was finally defeated and knocked off the stage by a sword from a young man in green.

"Huh? Who is this guy? Why have I never seen him before?"

"Looking at her age, I'm afraid she's not even an adult yet? How dare she come to participate in the Hydrangea Convention?"

"Although this boy is young, he is quite powerful. Look at the sword he used just now. It was clean and neat without any drag. I'm afraid he has already reached the middle stage of Daluo Jinxian."

"Youth is really something to behold! Are all kids nowadays so rebellious?"

Lu Yun looked at the young boy on the stage and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Brother Ge, is there no age limit for your hydrangea competition?"

Ge Wen shook his head: "There are no restrictions. Anyone who truly wants to marry my sister can come on stage and give it a try."

"This..." Lu Yun didn't know what to say for a moment.

The young man stood on the ring, his eyes scanning the surroundings, finally falling on the stands where Lu Yun and others were. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a provocative smile.

Lu Yun's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
