Chapter 34 I, Wen Yun, Honorably Accept The Decree! Helpless Lin Lang!
Although Wenyan Ancestor was on the verge of dying within a few years, and his strength will decrease rapidly, he is still the powerhouse at the peak of the Quasi Divine Realm.
With the cultivation base of one step below the Divine Saints, there is still strong majestic power residing in his dantian.
So, even a light snort could make others feel dizzy, not to mention the full pressure of the Quasi Divine.
A huge terrifying pressure descended on Lin Lang's body, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. His body of the Divine Palace Realm couldn't even handle the pressure of the Quasi Divine and his internal organs were also ruptured.
Lin Lang looked at Wenyan Ancestor in disbelief, and his heart was filled with shock and sadness.
Usually, Wenyan Ancestor favors him the most and even regards him as the treasure of the Wenyan family, but now he just attacked a junior, because of two words?
Lin Lang was in a state of dazedness when Wenyan Ancestor's angry voice pierced his ears.
"Lin Lang, what right do you have to disagree? When will it be your turn to decide things for my Wenyan family?"
Lin Lang's face turned red with anger, and his heart was being pierced by hot wires. If it wasn't that he couldn't even handle a move in front of the Quasi Divine, he would have already exploded in rage.
The only thing that was keeping his sanity was his cowardice to not die young just because of impulse. However, not everything goes according to one's wish, and it's still unknown if he won't die young.
Hearing the scolding and cursing from all the members of the Wenyan family, he was burning with anger, and he could only grit his teeth to put his hopes on Wen Yun.
Under the terrifying pressure, he said heavily with a struggling face.
"It… It also depends on whether the eldest miss is willing or not."
As soon as these words came out, the Great Hall fell silent again, and the only thing that was changing was the decrease in the momentum of Zhang Yi.
On the other hand, Wenyan Ancestor was also nervous. Others don't know, but as an old monster with age in tens of thousands of years, he knows what the most important thing is.
It doesn't matter if you agree or not, you have to accept the decree of the Yu family at all costs. Otherwise, it won't take time for the disaster to befall.
The opinion is only an alternative of making things peaceful or violent, it was never a thing to ask for consent. If you accept the decree, the Yu family will be satisfied, if you disrespect the decree, you won't even have the chance to be buried under the ground after death.
Either you'll be turned into dust or you'll be devoured by the immortal beasts. Yu family doesn't like to leave the corpses of the dead, after all, in the Immortal Realm, the dead can also be reborn.
So, under nervousness and the increasing pressure from Zhang Yi, he looked at his granddaughter Wen Yun with a worried face.
Wen Yun, at this time, was neither happy nor sad on the surface, but her heart was beating with fear, because all of the family members were looking at her, and her one word will decide their fate.
Zhang Yi was also looking at her, waiting for her consent. If it wasn't that Wen Yun was chosen to become the side-concubine of the young master of the Yu family which made him hesitate, he would have already started to slaughter the Wenyan family.
It's true that he wants to have a good relationship with the Wenyan family, but he won't even dare to risk a little for going against the Yu family.
His patience has reached its limit, and now one word from Wen Yun's mouth will decide his action and the Wenyan family's fate.
On the other hand, Wen Yun was restless in her heart, and the surrounding gloomy atmosphere was also affecting her.
When Wen Yun heard that she was chosen to be the side concubine of the young master of the Yu family, she was bewildered. It was like a random joke that one could only find true in their dreams.
She had no interaction with Yu Tian, and she had also only seen him once a few days ago when he visited the Wuji Realm on the road to the outer region.
So, she was confused as to why she was chosen. She didn't have much capital to get noticed by the Yu family and be blessed with such a high status, and the only thing that she could think of importance shouldn't be eye-catching for the all-powerful Yu family.
If there were other noble daughters, holy maidens, and goddesses from big families in her place, they would have long been ecstatic and would even throw a banquet to celebrate their happiness.
However, Wen Yun didn't have the slightest sense of excitement. For her, marrying an unknown man without knowing much about him and only knowing through legends, wasn't acceptable.
Although Yu Tian is famous and has the capital to be a Great Emperor in the future, and will be the lord of the Yu family, Wen Yun isn't a woman who covets wealth.
It's just that Wen Yun is still sensible. This fortune is both an opportunity and a curse.
If she rejects, Zhang Yi won't sit still, and the Wenyan family will be destroyed today, but if she accepts, the Wenyan family will rise rapidly becoming a dominant force, and even Zhang Yi has to bow to her.
At this moment, Wen Yun was in a state of turmoil. She wants to think good of the Wenyan family, but she doesn't want to serve a stranger as her husband.
However, she still knew one thing. Her choice just decides the life of her family members, her body will eventually be dedicated to the Yu family, either it is through a blood bath or through a grand welcome.
She looked at the frightened family members, felt the terrifying aura circulating in the Great Hall, and finally looked at her dying ancestor.
Her ancestor's eyes were pleading at her not to disrespect the decree, otherwise, it will be the true end of the Wenyan family and there won't be any chance of return.
Seeing Wenyan Ancestor's dying face which was pleading to a junior like her, her heart softened, and she said resolutely.
"I, Wen Yun, the eldest daughter of the Wenyan family honorably accept the decree."
As soon as this statement came out, the Wenyan family members breathed a sigh of relief and they felt that the cold atmosphere was gradually becoming warm.
Immediately, their faces were full of joy and excitement.
They all know that, even if Wen Yun rejects the decree, the end will be the same, but if she accepts the decree, the Wenyan family could still exist and prosper in the future.
Some youngsters of the Wenyan family are even more ecstatic. They had already been addicted to the prosperity of the Wuji region, and they don't want to go to the barren ancestral land in the Zhou Dynasty.
Now that Wen Yun can marry into the Yu family, although it's not said to be formal marriage but becoming a side-concubine, at least they could be related to the Yu family.
With this, the position of the Wenyan family will rise high in the Wuji region, and even the first-class forces of other regions won't dare to offend the Wenyan family.
Wenyan Ancestor also heaved a sigh of relief, but his heart was also filled with guilt. Now, the prosperity of once the Great family has to depend on selling the body of their own daughter.
However, this was the best course of action that could happen, and it also smothered the future road of Wen Yun.
After all, it's a great honor and blessing for Wen Yun to become a side-concubine of the Yu family's heir, and with this, she will become a great figure in the Immortal Realm.
Even the entire Central Profound Realm will be her backyard where she can pick each beautiful treasure/flower without any worry.
…
On the other side, Lin Lang looked at Wen Yun in disbelief. He didn't expect that even Wen Yun would accept the decree.
Till now, he still didn't know that not everyone was as impulsive as him. Who would dare to resist the decree of the Yu family?
He was from a small background and didn't know the cruelty of the world in depth. So, he couldn't guess that just refuting a decree could make a large family disappear in thin air.
Lin Lang wasn't thinking about these things, but his heart was aching at this time. It felt like someone was cutting his heart into pieces, and he could hardly breathe.
Lin Lang's heart wasn't just filled with anger, but was also filled with pain and sorrow.
He grew up with Wen Yun for long years and knew that Wen Yun wasn't such a girl who would love the riches and fall in love in an instant.
Now that she has agreed to this condition, it must be to revive the family and make the Wenyan family once again a great family.
She wasn't interested in the young master of the Yu family, but in the support that comes with her acceptance. However, the more he thought so, the more sad he became.
He felt powerlessness, and his heart was extremely bitter. Comparing himself with the prince of the Immortal Realm, he couldn't even stand still for a second.
Yu Tian's background is unrivaled in the Immortal Realm. As for talent, just the name of 'Destined to be a Great Emperor' is enough to crush him.
However, Lin Lang was still not reconciled. He still wanted to say something, but before he could raise his head fully, a huge pressure pressed him.
With a swipe of a flow of immortal energy, Lin Lang was knocked out and flew to one of the rooms outside of the Wenyan family.
After that, Wenyan Ancestor looked at a few youngsters and said with a little anger.
"Go and guard the door. Don't let him out!"
