This group of young masters could be called the strongest elite of the entire Jinling families.
Or rather, these people, from the moment they were born, had already stood at a level that ordinary people could not reach.
"Then guess, will this general kill you first, or will you kill this general?"
Ye Wu sneered, and after speaking, he turned to look at Mu Hanqi, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
The moment Mu Hanqi entered his sight, it was as if a gene engraved into his bones had activated, revealing a wicked smile.
"You're good-looking, quite cute. I originally thought my grandfather sent me here because I wasn't good-looking, but I didn't expect you to look quite good, and can barely be worthy of me."
"Old Master, why don't you marry her to me? What the Song family can do, my Ye family can also do, and what the Song family cannot do, my Ye family can also do. After all, the Song family is just a family in Jinling, while my Ye family ranks as the head of the ten great families in the capital!"
Ye Wu said with a laugh, a confident smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
The other party was indeed good-looking, so Ye Wu had a thought in his heart. Moreover, this matter was not as simple as it seemed. If only it were that simple.
This matter also involved some power struggles within the Jinling families. If the Song family were to marry the young princess of the Murong family, forming a closed loop of three families, then no one would be able to interfere in their affairs. To put it bluntly, it would form a beneficial closed loop, and anyone who wanted to interfere in their matters would inevitably face the blows of the three families.
This was one of the reasons why the Ye family's old master had asked him to snatch the bride. As for the other reason, it was a command from the Ye family in the capital.
They were to stop the marriage between the Song family and the Murong family at all costs, and it would be best if Ye Wu snatched the bride and married Mu Hanqi directly.
"Are you kidding me, Ye Wu? Please understand one thing, the marriage alliance was decided a long time ago, and it's not something you can change just by saying so. Do you really think you can do anything? Don't try to scare us with the Ye family from the capital. Do you really think we're afraid of you?"
Song Jie snorted coldly, the smell of gunpowder filling the air.
"Alright, this is not the place for you to argue."
Murong Renjing said unpleasantly, slamming his teacup heavily on the table and his gaze fell on Mu Hanqi.
"Now, all four of them want to marry you. What are your thoughts?"
To the old master, Mu Hanqi was just a chess piece, nothing more.
Mu Hanqi glanced at the four people, a thought suddenly popped into her mind. She chuckled inwardly, Wood, I'm creating an opportunity for you!
"Grandpa, you also know that my Murong royal family is not something anyone can simply attach themselves to. I like the strong. So why not have a martial arts competition to choose a husband? We can recruit heroes from all over the world, which will not only demonstrate the magnanimity of my Murong family but also spread the name of my Murong family far and wide. Only the one who wins in the end will be qualified to be my husband.
If all four of you have this confidence, then the result will surely be among you four. As long as you win, I will marry you immediately."
Mu Hanqi's mischievous idea also startled the old master, as he hadn't expected his granddaughter to come up with such a suggestion.
It wasn't ancient times anymore, why still have a martial arts competition to choose a husband? Modern society emphasizes free love.
However, they were the Murong family, and no woman in the family had the right to decide her own marriage.
"I think this idea is great. Let's see who's really got it. Don't just talk big all day."
Song Jie said with a cold smile, a chilling glint in his eyes.
He was ranked third on the Heavenly Pride list, and his brother was ranked fifth, and another was ranked seventh. Regardless, as long as the first and second ranked individuals did not appear, there would be no suspense in this martial arts competition to choose a husband.
"Since you agree, then I have no objections,"
Ye Wu said dismissively.
Murong Renjing looked at the scene, his mind also contemplating Mu Hanqi's words. After careful consideration and hearing their conversation, he had already made a decision.
"Since you all agree to this matter, then let's proceed with it."
"Someone, on behalf of the Murong family and the princess, send the news of the martial arts competition to choose a husband to the Martial Arts Association. Issue orders to the capital, the martial arts websites, and various other platforms. One week later, it will officially begin. The specific rules and regulations will be handed over to the princess."
Murong Renjing's intention was also very simple. Since you initiated this matter, then you are responsible for resolving it.
"Yes, Grandpa."
Mu Hanqi's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, as if she had already thought of something, a beautiful smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.
......
"Tsk, this little girl can really stir up trouble. She can't stop for even a day."
Ye Longlin, who had returned to his residence, also received the message from Mu Hanqi. Looking at her text, Ye Longlin couldn't help but shake his head.
It was clearly a marriage alliance, but now it had been turned into a martial arts competition to choose a husband. This was intended to make him participate!
"What's wrong, boss?"
Yuan Gang heard Ye Longlin's mumbling and asked confusedly.
Ye Longlin put down his phone and ordered, "One week later, the Murong family will hold a martial arts competition to choose a husband. You go and register for me."
Yuan Gang: "......"
Yuan Gang was also speechless. Such a divine figure like his boss participating, who could stop him? A martial arts competition to choose a husband, no need to even think about it, it must have been done by his sister-in-law.
"Is it necessary? Wouldn't it be like beating a child if you participate? Why let them participate? They are all just there to make up the numbers."
The news hadn't even spread yet, and the winner was already decided. Of course, it couldn't be said to be decided, after all, his sister-in-law also knew the strength of his boss. It was very likely that this idea came from something the old monk Ji Kong said, which made Mu Hanqi have this thought.
"No, if you participate, it definitely won't be that simple. The Military God List is updated every three years, and it should be updated with new rankings by the end of this year. This martial arts competition to choose a husband will definitely attract these people, especially after you participate."
Yuan Gang suddenly thought of something, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. It seemed that there would be another big event at the end of this year.
"I don't care about these things. If they really come, then we'll deal with it then. For now, don't worry about it."
Ye Longlin shook his head slightly. He didn't want to care about these matters. If they really came, then we'll deal with it as it comes.
For those with strength, there was no need to care about these things.
"Okay, I'll go in a week. But boss, are these war criminals in Jinling being handled by you or by the Dragon Pavilion? Brother Qinglong is in Jinling, should we inform Brother Qinglong that we've arrived?"
