Elder Xuanming chuckled, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"Zhu Yan, why are you so excited? I just think that since Meng Wan is the blood of your Suzaku clan, it would be better to let her marry into my Xuanwu clan.

In this way, our two tribes can be considered as even closer, isn't that wonderful?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan's face instantly turned pale, and anger in his eyes almost burst out.

He has paid so much, how could he just watch the inheritance fall into his hands?

"Xuan Ming, you old thief, forget it! Meng Wan is from my Suzaku clan, how can she marry into your Xuanwu clan?"

Elder Xuanming sneered, with a hint of coercion in his tone.

"Zhu Yan, you have to think it over carefully. Meng Wan is in my hands now. If you don't agree, I will have no choice but to take her back to the Xuanwu clan and take good care of her."

Zhu Yan gnashed his teeth, clenched his fists, and flames surged around him. It was obvious that he was extremely angry.

He stared at Elder Xuanming, his voice filled with suppressed anger.

"Xuan Ming, you are being shameless! I have already given you the Xuan Wu clan's treasure and the Tian Yao Mountain quota token, and you still want to take advantage of it?!"

Elder Xuanming sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"Zhu Yan, what you said is wrong. The Xuanwu clan's sacred object originally belonged to us. You have occupied it for so many years. Now it is returned to its original owner. Do you still want me to be grateful to you?

As for the quota for Tianyao Mountain, it is just a small apology from your Suzaku clan for occupying our sacred object for so many years. No matter how much you say it, you are not right!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan clenched his fists and his body was in flames, almost losing control.

However, before he could refute, the powerful men from several major demon tribes around him spoke up one after another, with a hint of partiality in their tone.

"Patriarch Zhu Yan, Elder Xuan Ming is right. The Xuanwu clan's sacred object originally belonged to them. You have occupied it for so many years, so it is only right that you return it now."

An elder of the Qinglong clan spoke calmly, his tone serious.

"Yes, Chief Zhu Yan, your Suzaku tribe has indeed acted a little overbearingly in recent years. Elder Xuanming is just taking back what belongs to him, why are you so excited?"

A strong man from the White Tiger Clan also spoke in agreement, his eyes full of mockery.

Zhu Yan's face turned pale and he was burning with anger.

These old guys usually disliked him, and now that they have found the opportunity, they are determined to take advantage of him.

He quickly winked at his good friends from the Teng Snake tribe.

After receiving Zhu Yan's call for help, an elder of the Teng Snake Clan spoke up with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"Elder Xuanming, your Xuanwu clan wants to forcefully marry the little princess of the Suzaku clan. This is unreasonable, isn't it?

After all, the little girl is the little princess of the Suzaku tribe. How can you make such a hasty decision about her marriage based on your few words? "

Upon hearing this, Elder Xuanming's eyes flashed and he explained with a smile.

“You all have misunderstood. This is not a forced marriage, but a sincere request for the marriage of my clan’s young master.

"The young master of our clan is extremely talented, young and promising, and he and the little princess are a perfect match made in heaven. If the two of them can become Taoist couples, it will not only benefit both clans, but also be a great joy!"

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Meng Wan, his tone somewhat gentle.

"Meng Wan, are you willing to marry into my Xuanwu clan? My clan will definitely treat you like a treasure and will never treat you unfairly."

Meng Wan raised her head, a sly look flashed in her eyes, and she whispered, "Elder Xuanming, are you really willing to let me marry into the Xuanwu clan?"

Elder Xuanming nodded quickly, his tone sincere.

"Of course! If you are willing, our young master will come and marry you personally."

Meng Wan smiled slightly, with a hint of innocence in her tone.

"Then... can I meet the young master of the Xuanwu clan? I heard that he is extremely talented and is the best among the younger generation. If he can come and marry me in person, I will agree to marry into the Xuanwu clan."

Elder Xuanming heard this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile, "How difficult is this? I will send a message to him to come over right away!"

"Wait a minute!"

Zhu Yan's voice exploded in the Broken Sand Valley like thunder, instantly interrupting Elder Xuanming's actions.

He took a step forward, flames swirling around him, and looked at Elder Xuanming with cold eyes, his tone filled with unquestionable anger.

"Old thief Xuanming, how can marriage be a joke? Meng Wan is the blood of my Suzaku clan, so her marriage is naturally decided by me, how can it be arranged by you at will?"

Upon hearing this, Elder Xuanming frowned and sneered.

"Zhu Yan, what do you mean? Miss Meng Wan has already agreed to marry into my Xuanwu clan. Are you going to go back on your word?"

Zhu Yan snorted coldly, his tone was icy.

"Meng Wan is still young and simple-minded. How can she easily decide her own lifelong affairs? Her marriage must be decided by me as her father!"

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Meng Wan, his tone somewhat gentle.

"Meng Wan, are you willing to follow me back to the clan? The clan will compensate you well and will never let you suffer any injustice."

Meng Wan raised her head, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, then she lowered her head and said softly, "Dad, I...I am willing to go back with you."

When Zhu Yan heard this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard an elder of the Qinglong clan sneer and question him.

"Patriarch Zhu Yan, I have a question. If Meng Wan is really your daughter, why is your last name Zhu and hers Meng? Is there some hidden story behind this?"

Zhu Yan's face darkened, and he cursed the old man in his heart for meddling in other people's business, but he remained calm and explained in a calm tone.

“You all don’t know that Meng Wan was born with congenital deficiencies. The elders of the clan once said that her fate was weak and difficult to raise.

In order to save her life, she took her mother's surname and was raised by her mother.

A few days ago, her mother died unexpectedly and she was so sad that she ran away.

I just learned of her existence, so I hurried over to look for her."

After he finished speaking, the powerful men from the surrounding demon tribes all showed thoughtful expressions.

As soon as Zhu Yan finished speaking, the elder of the Teng Snake Clan stood up, with a bit of persuasion in his tone.

“Elder Xuanming, now that the matter has been clarified and Miss Meng Wan is indeed of the bloodline of the Suzaku clan, why not return her to Clan Leader Zhu Yan.

After all, blood ties are inseparable, and forcibly separating them is always inappropriate."

Upon hearing this, Elder Xuanming frowned, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

"Elder Tengshe, this is wrong. Although Miss Meng Wan is of the Suzaku clan, she and our young master met yesterday. The two fell in love at first sight and were in love with each other.

She volunteered to stay in the Xuanwu tribe, so our tribe will naturally treat her well.

Although Chief Zhu Yan is her father, he can't take her away by force regardless of her wishes, right?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan's face instantly turned pale, and anger in his eyes almost burst out.

"Xuan Ming, old thief, stop talking nonsense here! Meng Wan is still young and simple-minded, how could she be easily bewitched by you? She is from my Suzaku clan, she must go back with me!"
