Chapter 132: Family Hope
Odin's gaze withdrew from the ancient war knife, and a smile appeared on his face: "Niya said that I haven't seen you back to the palace for a long time, and I was a little worried about you, so I pulled us old men over." ”
"Daddy!!" Nya couldn't cry or laugh, why did it get on me?
"Worried about me, do you really think of me as your son-in-law?" Tang Yan couldn't help but laugh.
"Do you dare to say it again?!" Niya warned Tang Yan with a cold face. But I have to admit that her peerless appearance, even when she is angry, has a charm that makes all beings fall in love.
"Nia!" Odin coughed dissatisfiedly and smiled at Tang Yan: "If you want, it's not impossible." ”
"Huh?" Tang Yan raised his eyebrows, looked at the smiling Odin, and then looked at the clan elders with the same kind attitude and Isaac with a strange expression, and suddenly smiled: "Are you all right? I shouldn't be able to meet your criteria for choosing a son-in-law, not to mention...... I like Lori, I don't like *. ”
"You ......," Nia almost scratched.
Odin smiled: "The age of a warrior is hundreds of years, and at most nearly a thousand years, and your age difference is only a dozen years, which is no different from a difference of ten days." ”
Tang Yan really wondered this time, this old man plans to marry his daughter? Seeing this mighty momentum, do you really plan to choose yourself? No, brother, although I am very attractive, after all, there is a huge difference in identity.
"Patriarch Odin, are you in trouble? If you have anything to say, you can say it directly, the shortest cannibal and the shortest hand to take people, not to mention that I still live in your daughter's boudoir, so I should help you a little. ”
"When are you going to live in my boudoir!" Niya couldn't wait to throw Tang Yan to the ground and stomp on her feet, all the men wanted to show their best side when they saw her, but this kid was good, in addition to teasing and teasing, he also didn't care about his image.
"The words are not coarse, Niya should not be angry. Odin comforted Niya, the current Tang Yan has a very good impression in his heart, very good, how to look at it and like it.
Isaac said, "We do have something to trouble you, let's find a place to talk in detail?"
"Okay, but can I take a shower first?" Tang Yan looked at his tattered clothes, mixed with the smell of bloody sweat, and even he couldn't bear it.
"We'll be waiting for you in the dining room of the Nya Palace, and we'll go to your two friends after taking a shower and having a bite to eat. ”
One childhood, the palace of Nya.
Tang Yan, Du Yang and Xu Yan cleaned up one after another, and sat at the dining table to eat and drink. For three months in a row, they have been playing hard to hone their lives and forgetting to sleep and eat, constantly breaking through the limit, although they are not like Tang Yan who can go sleepless for more than 20 days, but it is common for them not to sleep for three or five days, if you really have to calculate it carefully, it has been a long time since they had a normal meal or rest.
"If there's anything you say, we won't shirk if we can help. Tang Yan nibbled on a roast leg of lamb, and said vaguely, Du Yang and Xu Yan both nodded, which can be regarded as agreement.
At Odin's signal, Isaac said, "We don't like beating around the bush, so let's just say it." In our Delos Empire, there is a kind of competitive competition, called Life and Death Fight, which has been passed down from ancient times to the present day, and there are many types and is very popular.
You should have heard that the war between the three major empires in the south of the border has stopped, and the royal family of our Delos Empire has spare energy, so they are ready to hold an unprecedented large-scale life-and-death battle for the whole country, and the participants include......"
Isaac introduced the life-and-death fight, including the venue and specific rules of the game, and explained it in as much detail as possible.
The three of them slowly stopped, chewing on their food in their mouths, but their eyes fell on Isaac.
The participation of royalty and princes in the top fifty families of the empire, and the fact that the victors are free to demand spoils from the losers is indeed an unprecedented event, and the phrase 'pick the spoils at will' alone is tempting enough. The families who are qualified to participate in the competition are all wealthy dignitaries of the empire, with rich backgrounds, and there must be some very precious things in the family, such as martial arts, medicinal materials, pills, weapons.
Isaac coughed dryly and continued, "But what...... Our Rao family has some difficulties, and we can't pick out ten contestants from our direct and collateral families, unless we ...... Count little Becky. ”
Tang Yan said very directly: "You mean the three of us participated?"
"That's right, replace Becky and the other two kids. ”
Tang Yan looked at Isaac and then at Odin, and by the way, he glanced at Niya, and said with a smile: "It shouldn't be so simple, right? ”
"Uh...... In fact...... That's ......"
"I'll tell you. Niya couldn't stand her brother's hesitant tone, and said directly: "We have encountered two troubles, the first is that the main purpose of the royal family to start this life-and-death battle is to attack the Rao family, intending to eradicate all ten of our new generation, and by the way, ask for our family's weapons and martial arts. Secondly, there are no outstanding talents among our clansmen, and the strongest strength is the first-order martial sect, with only four people. But whether it is the royal family or other families, there are third-order martial sects or peak martial sects among the clansmen under the age of twenty-five, and the number is basically above five, among which the royal family and several families also have martial kings!"
Tang Yan slowly put down the leg of mutton: "Are you kidding?!"
Isaac's face was embarrassed: "I won't tell you anything, our family has had a rule since ancient times, and no male member is allowed to marry before he is promoted to the rank of Martial King, and he is not even allowed to have too much communication with women. So...... This has caused the general age bias of the children in our new generation. This is also one of the reasons why our Rao family has recruited a large number of guards and offerings from outside over the years. ”
Tang Yan exchanged glances with Du Yang and Xu Yan, and said: "Please forgive me for saying that the situation of your Rao family is very bad, since the royal family is ready to make a move, there must be all preparations, at least five or six families must lean towards them, and they all have strong martial sects and even martial kings." Are the three of us going to the race?or are we going to die?!"
Isaac Zhengse said: "We have investigated your deeds, you and your friend Du Yang once killed ten Martial Sects in a row in Giant Elephant City, including two third-order Martial Sects. So ......"
"Wait!" Tang Yan hurriedly interrupted: "That's a special situation, it was our sister who desperately blew herself up and hit them hard, so we found the opportunity to kill ten martial sects in a row." But this time is different, we are facing the descendants of various families, not only eyeing each other, but also cultivating spiritual-level and even earth-level martial arts with good talents. ”
Isaac still wanted to fight, but Odin stopped it directly and said personally: "I know this matter is very troublesome, but the Rao family really can't choose enough people, if you are willing to participate in the competition, we can promise you any conditions." ”
"Old Patriarch Odin, it's not a matter of conditions or not, this life-and-death fight is purely a trap set for your Rao family......! Dead! We're all dead, what more do we need?"
"Have you forgotten our agreement, you are now my guard!" Nya stared at Tang Yan.
Tang Yan unceremoniously refused: "You don't use this tone with me, we are guards, but not slaves." ”
Niya is extremely angry, from childhood to adulthood, I am afraid that only Tang Yan, a bastard, has rejected herself one after another. Gritting his teeth, he picked up the petite little Becky: "Do you really want to see death and not save you?" Can you bear to watch little Becky being thrown into the arena, brutally killed, or being used as food by monsters?"
Little Betty pouted and called out aggrievedly: "Uncle." ”
Tang Yan hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't come to provoke my sympathy, we are willing to help, but things like this kind of pure death are not among the help, and we can't do anything about it." ”
Odin said: "Why don't you listen to the conditions we can give first?"
This old man really didn't give up, Tang Yan shook his head helplessly.
Du Yang and Xu Yan remained silent, neither of them expressed their attitude, but their eyes were very tacit - disagree.
Odin finally hesitated, and said firmly: "If you are willing to fight for the Rao family, I can admit that you are my goddaughter and Du Yang is my righteous son, you ...... Be my son-in-law!"
The three of them slowly raised their heads and looked at Odin fixedly, recognizing the honorable powerhouse as their father-in-law?! For any commoner, this is a temptation that is difficult to refuse! Tang Yan has a special identity, he used to be a nobleman, and he has a grandfather, so he chose a more tempting way - marrying the first beauty of the empire.
Niya said calmly: "If you can come out alive, I am willing to marry you within five years." ”
A clan elder took the opportunity to say: "There is still a month before the competition, with your talent and current foundation, it should not be difficult to make a new breakthrough, Tang Yan and Du Yang can step into the second-order Martial Sect, Xu Yan can go directly to the peak of the Martial Sect, although the three of them joining forces will not be able to compete with the Martial King, but at least they have a certain self-protection ability." The fight to the death depends not only on combat effectiveness, but more importantly, on strategy, and I think you should be able to handle it. ”
Without waiting for Tang Yan and the three of them to express their opinions, Odin and the other elders of the Rao family actually got up together and said solemnly: "Please!"
"I ......" Tang Yan wanted to refuse euphemistically, but seeing Xiao Beiqi's pitiful appearance, and then looking at the helpless expressions of the old people, the words that reached his throat finally did not come out.
Du Yang and Xu Yan both frowned, this kind of soft and hard way is the most difficult. If it were someone else, they would definitely pat their butts and leave directly, but the problem is that the Rao family takes good care of them, and they are never stingy with all kinds of precious medicinal materials, and their attitude is so sincere now.
Tang Yan didn't dare to decide, hesitated for a long time, and finally quietly asked Du Yang and Xu Yan: "In a month's time, do you feel that you can break through?"
Du Yang and Xu Yan sighed in their hearts, are they going to agree?
"I've communicated with Lepu, and if I can successfully comprehend a few inherited martial arts, there should be no problem. ”
"I'm having trouble fusing with the ancient beast bones, and I need enough medicinal materials to help. If I go down, I will have a great increase, and if I fail, I can only temporarily maintain it in the third-order stage. ”
Tang Yan took a deep breath and finally said: "We can help with this, but we can only say that we can do our best......!
"You say. ”
"Can the matter of marriage be changed? Or is it more appropriate to have a son? You should know that I am not a casual person. ”
Everyone's expressions froze, and Niya glared angrily, I became a casual person?!
