The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

Stone embankment?

Hearing the villagers' discussion, Lu Yuan couldn't help but recall that the man Ye Ya had mentioned more than once before must be this guy.

With a thud, Shi Kan threw the two monster corpses off his shoulder and walked toward Lu Yuan with a gloomy expression. Only then did Lu Yuan realize that he only had one arm.

She's not bad looking, but why does she seem so familiar?

"You cannot marry him!"

Upon approaching, Shi Kan glanced at Lu Yuan with a cold look, then said something to Sui Ling beside him in an extremely resolute tone.

"He is the man I have chosen, and I have accepted his offering!"

Sui Ling looked at Shi Kan, her gaze unwavering.

"Kan, I know you're good to me, but you're not my warrior."

"You can choose not to marry me, but you also cannot marry him!"

"Why!"

"He's a city dweller!"

"What's wrong with the city dwellers again?"

Sui Ling gave a soft snort, his gaze suddenly turning serious.

"You may hate the city dwellers, but that doesn't give you a reason to stop us!"

Seeing Shi Kan and Sui Ling locked in a fierce confrontation, the crowd exchanged bewildered glances, shook their heads, and sighed.

Shi Kan is the most outstanding boy in this generation, and also the most outstanding of all the children in this generation. He is already a two-star warrior at a young age, and is the first and currently the only warrior in this generation.

Shi Kan was fond of Sui Ling and had offered him gifts many times, a fact known throughout the village. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the monsters Shi Kan hunted as gifts, Sui Ling refused them all.

The couple most favored by the villagers could never be paired up.

But as long as Suiling did not accept gifts from others, Shikan still had a chance. However, unexpectedly, Suiling suddenly accepted gifts from someone today, and it just so happened to be a city resident.

Shikan hates the city dwellers the most.

Shi Kan had a younger sister who was raped and killed by a local warrior during an outing. From then on, Shi Kan hated the local people.

Even a year ago, he left the village alone to hunt down the townspeople in revenge.

He was later found by Lord Black Tiger, but we don't know what he went through. He lost an arm but was promoted to a warrior general.

I heard that during the time he was away, Shikan killed many citizens, but he couldn't find the one who had harmed his sister. So his hatred for the citizens didn't diminish; instead, it deepened.

Now, the woman he loves most, the woman he desires most, has accepted a gift from a city dweller and is about to marry him. One can only imagine Shikan's anger and sorrow.

"The city dwellers are treacherous and cunning, especially him!"

Shi Kan looked at Lu Yuan, his anger like a flame in the night.

"Oh, I remember now."

This pure killing intent suddenly came to Lu Yuan's mind.

No wonder he looked familiar; wasn't he the warrior hunter we met on our way to the D137 Secret Realm?

It turns out he was from this village. At first, Lu Yuan and the others were wondering where this wild man had come from.

Come to think of it, it was Lu Yuan who cut off his arm.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile. No wonder he was so hostile towards him.

"Does your arm still hurt?"

Lu Yuan smiled and asked a question that seemed designed to kill without hurting the spirit.

"It's just an arm, nothing."

Shi Kan met Lu Yuan's gaze without flinching or showing any fear.

"But I will absolutely not let you harm the spirit."

"Stone cliff! You can't stop us!"

Sui Ling spoke, pulling even closer to Lu Yuan.

"No, I can, Spirit. Even though you will hate me, I must do this for your own good."

Shi Kan's expression was serious. He then turned to Sui Yan and spoke directly.

"I seek your guidance in finding a future partner to challenge the Spirit of Fire!"

challenge?

Lu Yuan's eyes widened slightly. Could this really be a challenge?

Although he didn't know the specifics of the explanation, Lu Yuan wasn't stupid. He had a general idea that his casual remark about giving the monster's corpse to Sui Ling could be interpreted as a marriage proposal.

Suiling agreed and now she is determined to marry him.

What kind of blunder is this? Even if Lu Yuan and Shen Humeng are already engaged, and even if he doesn't marry Shen Humeng, he wouldn't marry some random girl here.

Putting all that aside for now, Shi Kan is actually challenging him. It seems that if he wins the challenge, the Frost Spirit will belong to him.

Is it really that primitive?

If it were like animals, where the stronger one has priority in choosing a mate, why bother with all this talk? Just start fighting!

"Father!"

Sui Ling's expression changed, and she quickly looked at Sui Yan with a pleading look in her eyes.

Suiyan pondered for a moment, then turned to the stone embankment.

"I grant your request!"

"Father, you..."

Upon seeing Suiyan agree, Suiling's face turned deathly pale.

Lu Yuan guessed correctly; Shi Kan was indeed challenging him, and this was indeed how he would decide whether Sui Ling could marry him.

But that's not entirely true.

Although this village was built in the wilderness, it was composed of people who had migrated from the city. They were not primitive people who had always been isolated from civilized society, and were not so barbaric and violent.

Beautiful women love heroes, but only warriors deserve to have partners.

Therefore, eligible men in the village would propose marriage by hunting down monsters and offering them to their beloved women; this was called a gift offering. If a woman accepted the gift, it meant she had accepted the man's proposal.

But women are easily blinded by love, especially some young girls who are inexperienced in the ways of the world, so parents have the right to make informed decisions.

It wasn't a completely arranged marriage by the parents. If another man challenged the woman's fiancé, the parents had the right to agree or refuse. If they agreed, the original engagement would be void once the challenger won. It wasn't that the winner could simply take the woman away.

Shi Kan is the strongest among the younger generation in the village, already a two-star warrior. Even in the entire village, he belongs to the top tier of experts. In Sui Ling's opinion, Lu Yuan has no chance of defeating Shi Kan.

It has to be said that Sui Ling's vision was too limited; she had no idea of ​​the significance of Lu Yuan's single strike that killed the Black Forest King.

In fact, not only Sui Ling, who was at the Opening Meridian Realm, but also the village's warriors and the number one expert, Sui Yan, did not believe that Lu Yuan, at such a young age, could really kill the Black Forest King with a single strike. There must be some reason for this.

At this point, Shi Kan issued a challenge, and they all believed that Lu Yuan would inevitably lose, so the marriage could only be called off.

That's perfect, since none of them want Suiling to marry a city dweller.

"Ha, don't you all ask for my opinion?"

Looking at this group of self-important wilderness residents, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile.

One minute they say they want to marry him, the next they say they want to challenge him. They pay them money, and Lu Yuan has to cooperate unconditionally.

"Although I don't know what tricks you used to kill the Black Forest King, in order to convince you, I'll give you one night to rest."

Before Lu Yuan could protest, Shi Kan spoke again, pointing his index finger at him.

"I'll have another match with you tomorrow morning at nine o'clock!"

"Tomorrow? Then where will I stay tonight?"

"I will find you a house."

"You mean, I'm staying in the village tonight?"

Lu Yuan blinked, then suddenly grinned.

"I accept your challenge tomorrow!"
