"Who might that be?” The man who was seated next to Liu Chuandao blurted out with an equal measure of shock.
He knew the extent of Luo Heng's abilities. In comparison, Jiang Ning had shown himself to be overwhelmingly powerful.
He didn't seem that much older than Luo Heng.
He didn't recall such a young talent in Qingshan Sect.
"Him?” Liu Chuandao smiled lightly. He didn't seem fazed at all. "He's the man who's earned the favor of my daughter, my future son-in-law who's going to marry into Qingshan Sect.”
This man was going to marry into the Qingshan Sect?
"He had been abandoned by another sect and I took him in. I didn't expect him and my daughter to develop feelings for each other," Liu Chuandao laughed. "I can't interfere with their romance. It's their life, after all. I'm not going to break up a happy couple."
He didn't seem to notice the strained looks on a few of his guests' faces. His voice was filled with unconcealed approval as he kept on talking.
It sounded a lot like bragging.
He could have bragged about anything. Why was he bragging about his future son-in-law?
Had he forgotten the purpose of their arrival? They had come to seek his daughter's hand in marriage on behalf of their young master. Wasn't it inappropriate to sing Jiang Ning's praises to them?
"What do you think, Elder Luo Feng?"
Liu Chuandao glanced at the elder and smiled.
The expression on Elder Luo Feng's face froze.
He was part of the convoy who had come to seek Liu Qing's hand in marriage and they had already informed Liu Chuandao of their intentions. But from what Liu Chuandao had said so far, it appeared that he was going to turn down their proposal.
"He's indeed an extraordinary man with exceptional talent,” Elder Luo Feng laughed. "But he might not be a good fit for Third Miss. Our young master grew up with Third Miss. They were childhood playmates. His talent and skill are equal to the young man's."
Since Liu Chuandao had made his point very clearly, Elder Luo Feng didn't see the need for tact anymore.
Liu Chuandao seemed to have expected such words from him. He laughed loudly and shrugged. "Let the young folks deal with their own matters. We should stay out of this."
He was telling them that he wasn't going to interfere with Liu Qing's marriage. He wasn't going to allow the elders from Tianlian Sect to interfere either.
