Chapter 137 Strange Spirits

Wang Xutong's words made Wang Qingshu and Luo Ningyu stunned at the same time. The difference was that Wang Qingshu's eyes instantly showed a hint of excitement, while Luo Ningyu looked embarrassed.

Seeing that Luo Tianjin was reluctant to speak, Wang Xutong raised his eyebrows and said, "If the General's Mansion and the Xianwang Mansion become relatives, it will be like adding wings to a tiger, a perfect match. Why? Could it be that Lord Luo doesn't like my son and doesn't want to make this a success?"

"actually……"

"Actually, I came here today to decide my own lifelong affairs." Before the embarrassed Luo Tianjin could speak, Luo Ningyu suddenly interrupted. She stuffed the handkerchief into Liu Xunyi's hand and wanted to stand up and walk towards Wang Xutong, but Liu Xunyi suddenly clenched her cold jade-like hand and shook his head slowly with a solemn expression.

Facing Liu Xunyi's "reluctance to leave", Luo Ningyu's mouth suddenly raised a relieved smile. She didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly to Liu Xunyi, reluctantly pulled her hand out of Liu Xunyi's hand, turned to look at Wang Xutong, with a resolute look in her eyes.

"You Han people have a saying that goes 'Parents' orders and matchmaker's words'. Can't Lord Luo make the decision for your daughter in this matter?" Wang Xutong asked in a veiled manner.

Luo Ningyu smiled and said, "Of course my father can make the decision for me, but he will not turn a deaf ear to my ideas. It is inappropriate for you to rashly ask my father for marriage while I am away. Now that I am back, can't you still have some expectations for your own lifelong happiness?"

"Of course you can." Wang Qingshu smiled, "The whole world will soon belong to our great Mongolian Empire. I am a little prince of Mongolia, and I own fertile fields, countless gold and silver, inexhaustible treasures, and inexhaustible money, power, and soldiers. As long as you marry me, I guarantee that you will enjoy wealth and glory in this life, and you will be surrounded by people wherever you go. Although I dare not say that you are only second to one person, you are definitely above tens of millions of people!"

Wang Qingshu's eyes were full of confidence when he said this. In his opinion, no woman in the world could resist the conditions he put forward. So he said: "No matter what you expect or what you want, I can meet your request and satisfy you completely. I wonder if you are satisfied with this kind of happiness?"

Facing Wang Qingshu's complacency, Luo Ningyu showed disdain. She snorted, then straightened her body, showing off her proud figure, and said contemptuously: "What you said are nothing more than material possessions. I don't care about any of them. Although I am not a lady from a wealthy family, I am still the eldest daughter of the Xianwang Mansion. There are many rich and powerful people in the world. If any cat or dog dares to propose marriage, wouldn't I be annoyed to death?"

Luo Ningyu's words were full of hidden meanings, comparing "Wang Qingshu" to cats and dogs, which made Wang Qingshu's face suddenly turn a little ugly.

Wang Xutong, on the other hand, was calm and unmoved. He showed some appreciation for his future daughter-in-law. He nodded and smiled, "As expected of the jewel in the eye of Lord Luo. You really have an extraordinary vision. I like you very much. Since you said you are not interested in money, power and status, what exactly do you want from your future husband?"

Luo Ningyu raised her eyebrows and asked, "Do you really want to know?"

"Appreciate further details!"

"Okay!" Luo Ningyu's expression became serious, and she said in a concentrated voice, "Literary talent, martial arts, appearance and character are all indispensable. If you want to be my husband, you must have the appearance of Pan An and Song Yu, the virtue of Meng Chang and Xin Ling, the talent of Tai Bai and Yue Tian, ​​and the martial arts that are unmatched in the martial arts world. These four conditions are indispensable! As for rare treasures, people following closely, etc., I am already accustomed to them and have no interest in them."

"Haha..." As soon as Luo Ningyu said this, Wang Xutong suddenly laughed out loud, and turned to Luo Tianjin and said, "Palace Master Luo really gave birth to a good daughter who is different from others. The four conditions she just mentioned, looking at the world today, has anyone ever seen such a strange man?"

"If not, I would rather not marry for the rest of my life!" Luo Ningyu said stubbornly. After that, she walked to Luo Tianjin's side, tightly held Luo Tianjin's arm, and smiled proudly, "Who said there are no such men in the world? My father is one! Whether in terms of character, appearance, or martial arts talent, my father is the best in the world. So even if the husband I want to marry cannot be as good as my father, he must not be too far behind!"

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Qingshu finally couldn't hold back his indignation and asked angrily, "It seems that you don't want to marry me? The Xianwang Mansion clearly looks down on my General Mansion and thinks that the little prince is not worthy of you..."

"I never said that." Luo Ningyu defended herself with a pleasing tone, "My father has already accepted your betrothal gifts, so how can I, as a daughter, refuse? I can marry you, but the prerequisite is that you must meet the four conditions I just mentioned. Of course, for the sake of General Wang, I can ignore your appearance, but character, martial arts and talent are all indispensable."

"As a young prince, I have read a lot of books since I was young, so my character and talent are naturally beyond doubt." Wang Qingshu said coldly, "As for the virtues of Mengchang and Xinling, and the talents of Taibai and Yue Tian that you mentioned, those people are all dead, so how can we compare them?"

"What about your martial arts?" Luo Ningyu sneered, "Can your martial arts be unrivaled in the martial arts world?"

"My family conquered the world on horseback. Not to mention the martial arts world, even if we conquered the whole world, our Mongolian cavalry would be hard to beat." Wang Qingshu said, "Otherwise, why would you, the Song Dynasty, give in again and again? Why would you, the Song Dynasty, keep retreating?"

Wang Qingshu's arrogant attitude and condescending words made Luo Tianjin and others feel very uncomfortable.

"Well, if you have the guts, fight me." Luo Ningyu urged, "Regardless of whether you can dominate the world, if you can't even beat a weak woman like me, then I will have to think carefully about this marriage. Ask the women in the world, who doesn't want to marry a man who can protect her? You may not be the best in the world, but at least you can't be worse than me." After that, Luo Ningyu cast her eyes at Wang Xutong who seemed to be thinking about something, and asked with a smile, "General Wang, do you think what I said makes sense?"

Wang Xutong laughed dumbly and said faintly: "We only conquered men in the past, but never thought that women also need to be conquered."

"If you can't even conquer your own woman, how can you conquer the world in the future?" Luo Ningyu immediately responded, "I hope my ideal husband is a true hero, not a loser."

"You said I'm a waste?" Wang Qingshu was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up.

"Then let's give it a try?" Luo Ningyu showed her stance, a provocative look on her pretty face, "Do you dare to accept the challenge?"

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

Without waiting for Wang Xutong to dissuade him, Wang Qingshu, who was completely enraged by Luo Ningyu, rushed out suddenly and punched Luo Ningyu in the face. Luo Ningyu saw that her provocation worked, and she was immediately delighted. Facing Wang Qingshu's attack, she not only did not dodge, but instead shouted and went forward without hesitation. In a moment, the two of them had already fought. Wang Qingshu had been ignorant since childhood, and he learned martial arts from time to time, which made his martial arts mediocre. Therefore, he was obviously at a disadvantage after only three or five rounds of fighting with Luo Ningyu. In a panic, Luo Ningyu took the opportunity to kick him hard several times, but he had no power to fight back and was beaten in a miserable state.

Seeing that Wang Qingshu was about to be defeated, Wang Xutong quickly gave Qi Tai a look.

Qi Tai understood, and leaped forward, blocking the aggressive Luo Ningyu, and blocking the defeated Wang Qingshu behind him.

Seeing this, Deng Changchuan quickly flew up and swung his long whip in mid-air. With a crisp "snap" sound, the long whip pushed back Qi Tai's hand that was reaching out to Luo Ningyu. At the same time, Deng Changchuan's left hand stretched forward as fast as lightning, and pulled Luo Ningyu, who was in danger, behind him, and then turned over and landed, confronting Qi Tai.

"stop!"

Luo Tianjin and Wang Xutong shouted at almost the same time. Hearing this, Deng Changchuan and Qi Tai hurriedly retreated, and a storm that almost caused a disaster was put to an end.

At this moment, whether it was Luo Tianjin or Wang Xutong, they were both wary of each other, so no one wanted to be the first to fall out, especially when someone was being unreasonable.

Luo Tianjin was afraid of the identities of the Wang family father and son, and the Mongolian court behind them, while Wang Xutong was afraid of Luo Tianjin's status in the underworld and his strong influence in Luoyang City.

If they really fell out, Wang Xutong would definitely die before Luo Tianjin, but Luo Tianjin would never be able to live a peaceful life again. They used each other, but were wary of each other, so they could only fight openly and secretly, barely maintaining a seemingly stable situation and waiting for the times to change.

"You're cheating!" Luo Ningyu pointed at Qi Tai angrily and complained, "He was clearly about to lose just now..."

"Yu'er, stop messing around!" Luo Tianjin stopped Luo Ningyu from complaining, and turned to Wang Xutong and said, "I'm sorry that I didn't teach my daughter well, General."

"No problem!" Wang Xutong waved his hand and smiled, "Miss Luo is the most unique girl I have ever seen. If we can have such a daughter-in-law, it will definitely be a great blessing for my Wang family. Of course, the premise is that Miss Luo can willingly marry into the general's mansion. Hehe..."

"Then today..."

"I have just witnessed Miss Luo's superb skills." Wang Xutong said, "As expected of a child of the Jianghu, she is indeed generous and extraordinary. However, the battle just now did not result in a conclusion. Why don't we choose another day to fight? If my son wins, our two families will jointly make this beautiful thing happen. If your daughter wins, then this marriage will be discussed separately. How do you think?"

"I'm never afraid of him!" Luo Ningyu said confidently.

"That's fine!" Luo Tianjin pondered, "When will General Wang want to compete again?"

Wang Xutong thought about it and said, "This matter is not urgent. I will discuss it with Lord Luo slowly in the future."

Seeing Wang Xutong, who was originally impatient, suddenly change his attitude, Luo Tianjin couldn't help but feel suspicious, but he didn't have time to think about it, so he simply agreed: "That's fine, Luo will just wait for the general's news."

"it is good!"

After a few insincere greetings between the two sides, Luo Tianjin led his men out of the general's mansion.

After Luo Tianjin left, Wang Qingshu could no longer hold back his doubts and asked anxiously, "Dad, why did you agree to the duel? You knew that my son..."

"How dare you say that!" Wang Xutong changed his calm expression and scolded gloomily, "Who told you not to practice martial arts well? Now you can't even beat a weak woman. How dare you speak so arrogantly just now? It's really embarrassing!"

"Could it be that Dad meant... not to let me marry Luo Ningyu? But didn't Dad hope to win over Luo Tianjin with this? What's more, I really like this woman? I must get her!"

"Don't you see the situation clearly? Luo Ningyu's words are perfect. It's not that she doesn't want to marry, but you don't have the ability to conquer her. If Dad insists on doing it, it will be unreasonable. If Luo Tianjin is really pushed into a corner, the result will only be a lose-lose situation." Wang Xutong said in a deep voice, "Luo Ningyu is not simple either, especially her clever mouth. This girl has a smart mind, is clever and eccentric, smart and wise, and has the courage and spirit of a child of the rivers and lakes... To be honest, Dad is really afraid that you can't conquer her, and even suffer a great loss at her hands."

"Isn't she just a woman? How difficult is it to subdue her?" Wang Qingshu retorted unconvinced.

Wang Xutong sighed, "Even if Dad forces her to marry you, on the wedding night, with your martial arts skills, not only will you not be able to get close to her, you might even lose your life. This is another reason why Dad is not in a hurry to make this happen. Dad just said that we will fight again on another day, but it was just an excuse. If you really want to conquer this girl, you must use some extraordinary means, such as..."

Seeing Wang Xutong hesitate to speak, Wang Qingshu hurriedly leaned forward to whisper. After Wang Xutong whispered to him, Wang Qingshu's heart suddenly cleared up, and a cunning and treacherous look flashed in his eyes.
