Chapter 135: Increasingly Abstract Family Relationships

Shengyue visited late at night, and Xingyuan had guessed somewhat about the other party's purpose.

In the entire demon hunting team, except for him as the leader, the rest of the members are women, so it is understandable that Shengyue is worried.

As expected, the first thing Shengyue talked about was the lifelong affairs of Xingyuan and Caier.

He was even more anxious than Xingyuan and Caier. He had even chosen a date. They wanted to get married after the team competition of this year's Demon Hunting Team selection contest was over.

Shengyue also revealed that the alliance has already decided on the venue for the team competition of this year's qualifiers, which is Xingyuan and Caier's hometown, the Exorcist Pass where the Assassin's Temple headquarters is located.

"Lingxin and Yanyu have no objections either. Or rather, this is exactly what they want to see."

Shengyue knew that Cai'er only listened to Xingyuan and didn't want to talk to him, so he talked to Xingyuan directly, "It's the same old saying. We are relieved to leave Cai'er to you."

Although Xingyuan also felt that his great-grandfather was a little too hasty, since he and Cai'er had already discussed this matter and had plans in this regard, it would not be a bad idea to do as his great-grandfather said.

Anyway, the wedding is just a ceremony, just a formality, and it will not affect Xingyuan and Caier's future demon hunting journey.

Besides, since the great-grandfather has said so, how can Xingyuan, as the son-in-law, refuse?
But before Xingyuan nodded and agreed to this matter, Cai'er refused to do it.

"I don't want you to preside over my wedding, and it's not you who handed me over to Xingyuan. I handed myself over to him."

Cai'er's voice was full of indifference. The gray aura of the Samsara Spirit Furnace escaped from her body as her emotions fluctuated, and in an instant it swept across most of the room. It was so gray that it seemed as if a filter had been cast over everything.

Xingyuan felt a little uncomfortable. Breathing became difficult and the skin exposed outside his clothes also felt a slight stinging pain.

It is obvious that Cai'er has not yet fully mastered the Samsara Spirit Furnace and is still quite unskilled in the use of her abilities.

But compared to this, what Xingyuan cared more about was Shengyue, whose face had become extremely ugly at this moment.

"That's not the case, great-grandfather. Cai'er..."

Xingyuan knew very well that it was time for him to mediate, but Shengyue did not give him a chance to speak. She simply reached out and pressed the acupoints on his body, leaving him speechless and unable to move.

But even so, Xingyuan still had other ways. He used his mental power to communicate with Shengyue directly, "Great-grandfather, please don't be angry. I..."

"Do you want to take a nap?"

Sheng Yue looked into Xing Yuan's eyes, and her voice was no longer full of energy like before, like an old man in his twilight years, "Let me talk for a while."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xingyuan found that he could move his body and speak again.

"Ah."

Since the conflict between Cai'er and her original family has reached a point where Xingyuan cannot reconcile it and has no way to smooth things over, it all depends on how the great-grandfather resolves it.

"Sheng Caier."

This was the first time Sheng Yue called Cai Er's full name. He asked, "Can I understand what you just said, that you want to sever ties with our Sheng Family?"

"That's what I meant."

Cai'er said this without any hesitation, even though she had heard the message from Xingyuan.

"I'm sorry, I'll be willful just this once." She said this to Xingyuan.

Xingyuan didn't say anything, because he was dumbfounded. Why did it turn out like this?
"Well."

However, Shengyue's answer was beyond Xingyuan's expectations. You have to know that Cai'er is the Saint of Reincarnation whom he had worked so hard to cultivate. Can this relationship be severed so easily?
Xingyuan was in a state of confusion.

And Shengyue continued to say to Cai'er: "From now on, you will just be an ordinary member of our Assassin's Temple. I will no longer give you any privileges or conveniences."

Cai'er didn't say anything, but took off the inheritance ring from her finger and placed it in front of Shengyue.

"Okay, okay, okay." Sheng Yue laughed in anger, saying yes repeatedly while taking away Cai'er's inheritance ring. "I am the master of the Assassin's Temple. According to the rules, you have to half-kneel and talk to me."

This time Xingyuan didn't dare to interrupt, nor did he dare to make a sound, because he could see that Shengyue was really angry.

Fortunately, Cai'er also knew the rules within the Assassin's Temple. She slowly knelt on one knee and said in a very calm voice, "Palace Master, are you looking for me?"

"Ah."

Sheng Yue nodded and said, "Regarding your marriage with my great-grandson, I don't agree."

Xingyuan: “6.”

Now it was Xingyuan's turn to be confused. He understood what Shengyue meant.

Cai'er was also stunned for a moment at first, but she quickly reacted and her voice became a few degrees colder, "What does this mean?"

"Means nothing."

Sheng Yue shrugged, and then hugged Xing Yuan's shoulders, "Although Xing Yuan's blood is not from my Sheng family, our family has raised him. He treats him as his own son, and he also recognizes me as his great-grandfather..."

"I have other plans for his marriage."

Shengyue’s idea is very simple, which is to forcibly bind Caier through the star source.

"Don't embarrass Xingyuan."

Cai'er's voice softened, "Since the Palace Master has other plans, then I won't marry him."

Xingyuan: “…”

Sheng Yue: “…”

Shengyue didn't understand Cai'er's intention, but how could Xingyuan, who shared the same thoughts with her, not understand?

For Cai'er, as long as she can stay with Xingyuan forever, it doesn't matter whether they are married in a formal way or have a formal status.

"Do you think I'm joking with you?"

Sheng Yue's face was gloomy. "Do you know how many senior leaders of the alliance are eager to introduce their daughters to Xingyuan?"

Cai'er didn't say anything.

"It just so happens that the deputy master of the Soul Temple, Sanshui, is also interested in bringing his granddaughter and Xingyuan together."

Shengyue would never do such a thing. Xingyuan knew it very well and knew that the other party was putting pressure on Caier.

Xingyuan opened his mouth and was about to say something, but found that he couldn't make a sound. And it wasn't Shengyue who didn't let him speak, it was Cai'er who didn't let him speak!

Sheng Yue's eyes were as sharp as a sword, and even penetrated Cai'er's veil and saw her tightly closed eyelids. "I hope you won't regret your decision today."

"I won't regret it."

Cai Er shook her head and said, "As long as Xing Yuan still wants me, I can be his mistress."

Xingyuan: “9.”

What kind of shocking statements are these? I am the only normal person here, and you guys are all playing with abstract ideas, right?
and many more……

Xing Yuan vaguely realized that if his "family situation" continued to develop like this, it would probably become as abstract as that of the "Son of the Plane" Long Haochen...
