Chapter 113: Now Famous

Chu Ming repeatedly denied, "No, no, no, Master is just joking."

"What merits and abilities does this disciple have to deserve Senior Sister Li?"

"Senior Sister Li might have acted impulsively. If she really marries this disciple, she will definitely regret it for the rest of her life."

Li Haimeng calmly said, "Disciple's decision is not impulsive, and I will never regret it."

Jiang Mo nodded with a smile, "In that case, I will make the decision for you."

"Your master unexpectedly passed away, and now you are cursed."

"Seeing you in this state, as your martial uncle, I am also saddened."

"Regarding the incident with the Dragon Yin Sword Manual, your martial uncle has not been able to help much until now, and has always felt guilty."

"Now that there is an opportunity to oversee your marriage, your martial uncle will naturally do everything possible."

"This can also be considered as appeasing the spirit of your master in heaven."

Li Haimeng expressionlessly clasped his hands and said, "Thank you, Master Uncle."

Jiang Mo looked at Chu Ming beside him and patted his shoulder, laughing, "Nephew, you heard it too. Senior Sister Li is serious, not impulsive."

"She is so fond of you, this marriage seems good. Why don't you agree to it and give me face?"

Being patted by Jiang Mo like this, Chu Ming broke out in a cold sweat.

The other party's cultivation was at the Core Formation Late Stage Perfection, killing him would be no more difficult than squashing a bug.

Compared to fishing on the boat before, the current situation was even more terrifying.

A wrong word could result in having to relocate.

"I... I feel that something is not quite right."

"I feel that I am not worthy of Senior Sister Li, especially when there are so many outstanding young talents in the sect."

"I think Master should persuade Senior Sister Li again and make her change her mind."

He didn't directly mention Li Haimeng's feelings for Jiang Moyu, fearing that it would embarrass Jiang Mo in public, so he phrased it more tactfully.

However, Jiang Mo smiled and said, "The most important thing in love between men and women is feelings. There is no such thing as being worthy or not."

"And she said that she will only marry you, who can be more suitable for her than you?"

"Don't underestimate yourself. If Senior Sister Li has chosen you, it naturally means that you have outstanding qualities."

"Our sect allows freedom in marriage, and no one can hinder others' marriages."

"You can rest assured and bring the beauty home without worrying about anyone ruining it."

"If anyone dares to ruin your good fortune, I will be the first to spare him."

Chu Ming forced a bitter smile and kept speculating about Jiang Mo's true intentions.

Did he really intend to let his son wear a green hat?

Although there was no relationship between Jiang Moyu and Li Haimeng yet, most people in the sect knew about Li Haimeng's feelings for Jiang Moyu.

If he were to be snatched away by this insignificant nobody, it would be no different from wearing a green hat. Where would the face of their Jiang family go?

Or maybe Jiang Mo didn't care about such trivial matters.

He didn't care whether his son could win Li Haimeng.

What he cared about was the rules of the sect and the prestige of being the sect leader.

Although Li Haimeng, this talented disciple, had fallen from grace, if even marriage was not free, many people would have objections.

Moreover, Li Haimeng had been repeatedly frustrated recently, and his master had also passed away. If he were to kick him while he was down, it would be quite unsightly.

On the contrary, by actively helping and not minding his son being cuckolded, he could demonstrate the magnanimity of a sect leader.

Chu Ming didn't understand Jiang Mo's character, but as the sect leader, he should still care about his reputation. At the very least, he would have to put on a show on the surface.

And it seemed that he didn't care about his son's opinion, otherwise he wouldn't have suppressed Jiang Moyu from the beginning and not let him say a word.

Perhaps agreeing to this matter wouldn't be a big deal...

However, this is only his temporary speculation, and he cannot be sure what Jiang Mo is really thinking.

It's better to choose passivity for now and see what Jiang Mo plans to say later.

Seeing him hesitate, Jiang Mo smiled and said, "Why are you still so unwilling?"

"You, Senior Sister Li, are like a Celestial Immortal. Others haven't even had a chance yet."

"Do you dislike it so much? Do you think Senior Sister Li is not worthy of you?"

Chu Ming repeatedly waved his hand, "No, disciple doesn't mean that at all."

Jiang Mo continued, "By the way, it seems like I heard you mention your spiritual root mutation earlier."

"It's indeed quite troublesome, but I think there might be a solution."

"After you and Senior Sister Li get married, I will find a way to help you solve your cultivation technique problem."

"Can you agree to this?"

"Just consider it as giving face to me, the Sect Master."

Hearing him say this, Chu Ming didn't dare to refuse.

If the Sect Master repeatedly asks him for face and he doesn't give it, it would be like refusing a toast and being forced to drink a forfeit.

"In that case, I thank the Sect Master for his generosity. Since Senior Sister Li has no objections, naturally I won't have any either."

Jiang Mo showed a satisfied smile, patted his shoulder, and said, "That's good."

He then looked at Li Haimeng and smiled, "Niece Haimeng, how about it? Are you satisfied?"

Li Haimeng clasped her hands and thanked, "Thank you, Uncle Sect Master, for fulfilling my wish."

Jiang Mo then glanced around and said to a female disciple, "Go to the hall and inform the elder in charge of the ceremony to prepare for the wedding of these two disciples."

"Organize it according to the highest level of direct disciples, and don't be careless!"

The female disciple agreed repeatedly and flew swiftly on her flying sword towards the hall.

Jiang Mo then exchanged pleasantries with Chu Ming and Li Haimeng, and asked for Chu Ming's name and identity.

Finally, he said, "You two should get to know each other well for now. I have some matters to attend to as the Sect Master."

Saying that, he turned and left, walking to Jiang Feiyu's side, grabbing his shoulder, and flying away together.

Jiang Feiyu couldn't say a word and could only watch their figures gradually disappear, with tears seemingly shimmering in his eyes.

After Jiang Mo left, Chu Ming felt relieved.

But when he saw Li Haimeng beside him, a worried expression appeared on his face again.

This Jiang Mo seems to have no extra thoughts, but with such a woman by his side, he probably won't have peace anymore.

He looked around and could clearly see the jealous anger in the eyes of those male cultivators.

As for the female cultivators, they were whispering to each other in groups of two or three. It's likely that the incident just now will spread throughout the sect soon.

It's over. I originally wanted to become a little transparent figure in the inner sect, but now I've become a target of public criticism for the male cultivators. How can I live in peace?

Li Haimeng stood aside, not saying a word, just standing quietly.

Chu Ming thought about the purpose of his trip and continued walking towards the Piaomiao Peak.

Li Haimeng silently followed behind him, never leaving his side.

Chu Ming couldn't help but turn around and smile bitterly, "Senior Sister, why are you following me?"

Li Haimeng calmly said, "Since you have agreed to marry me, naturally you are my husband. Why shouldn't I follow you?"

"Besides, I don't have a Cave Mansion to live in now. I will naturally go back with you later. Otherwise, where do you want me to go?"

"Now, who are you going to find? The mountain road is steep, I can carry you over."

Chu Ming helplessly waved his hand, "No need, I can fly on my sword. I'm going to find a senior brother to ask something, and I'll be back soon."

He flew on his sword towards the mountainside.

Li Haimeng took out a large oval-shaped white jade stone and flew after him.

Leaving behind a group of cultivators who had just watched, they watched as the two of them left.
