Chapter 694 - 688: Made an Effort (1st update)
"Even if it’s just an ordinary necklace, I like it!" the Seventh Princess raised her head, looked at Li Feng, and declared, "My heart is wholly with Brother Su. If you think I will marry you, get that thought out of your head!"
Just a second before, Li Feng had been laughing mockingly at Su Chen. In the next instant, his smile froze, and his aura of anger became unstable. Being explicitly rejected by the Seventh Princess in front of so many people was an unimaginable insult to him.
Especially since he was being outmatched by someone at the Fate Realm Sixth Level, which he considered trash? Li Feng couldn’t accept it!
"Xuan’er, shut up!" In that same second, the Xuanfeng Emperor suddenly shouted, "Marriage is a matter decreed by parents; is it for you to speak nonsense about?"
"Imperial Father, you... I would rather die than marry him!!!" The Seventh Princess was so agitated that she almost bit her own lips through as she firmly stated. Her heart sank; the emperor’s rebuke clearly showed his inclination towards Li Feng.
The Xuanfeng Emperor frowned and looked at Su Chen, "The necklace is nice, but the Divine Martial Continent is a world of martial arts cultivation. You should understand that, right?"
The Xuanfeng Emperor was trying to dissuade Su Chen.
The necklace was crafted with care, but sadly, no matter how much effort was put into it, it was just an ordinary item. Logically, its value was far less than that of a Dao Artifact; there was simply no comparison. Thus, he had almost sealed Su Chen’s fate.
Su Chen smiled. He didn’t blame the Xuanfeng Emperor for being pragmatic; the world was indeed a realistic place. If on Earth people marry off their daughters in such a manner, how much more so on the Divine Martial Continent? However, the emperor’s inability to see beyond appearances was disappointing. Was the necklace really just an ordinary one?
"What are you laughing at?" The emperor’s brows furrowed even more deeply. He felt that Su Chen’s laughter was scoffing at him. Already distraught by having to force his daughter to marry Li Feng, Su Chen’s laughter seemed particularly irritating.
