Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 389 Expressing Feelings

The matchmaking event had progressed to a point where only a few people remained. As expected, Dai Yun'er chose Tang Wulin in the next part of the event.

Clearly, after her trip to the Dragon Valley Small World, this quirky little princess had truly fallen for Tang Wulin.

Now, the final stage has finally arrived, and among all the girls, only one remains who has not yet made a choice.

"According to the rules, girls who haven't taken off their hats can only choose their partners at the very last moment. Girl number seventeen, would you like to choose your favorite boy?"

On the boys' side, Tang Wulin no longer cared that his good brother might be Huang Mao, and turned his attention to girl number seventeen. Everyone's eyes were also focused on her, especially those who had already guessed who she was.

"Will they really be affected by being love-struck?" Nan Fusheng watched this scene with great interest.

Now that he has stolen the Dragon God's core, Gu Yue's grand plan to revive her soul beasts has lost a crucial pillar. Na'er may also be slipping out of control, and it's uncertain whether Gu Yue will still be driven by love.

Under everyone's gaze, girl number seventeen remained silent for a moment, then gently shook her head.

Her movements were slow and gentle, and seemed simple, yet they made Tang Wulin, who was standing on the lotus leaf, feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

She shook her head. She had no choice. That's right, she didn't choose herself. She didn't choose anyone else either, and she didn't even take off her straw hat.

Without a doubt, this means that she doesn't have a sweetheart and has no intention of finding a partner at this matchmaking event.

Tang Wulin felt as if his heart had been suddenly gripped by something, and he suddenly found it hard to breathe.

His eyes were a little blurry, and a faint bitterness appeared at the corner of his mouth.

All the days we spent together seemed like fleeting clouds the moment she shook her head. Everything, in that instant, was like a sharp blade descending from the sky, severing heaven and earth.

In the distance, wearing a bamboo hat and a veil, Gu Yue looked at Tang Wulin from afar. Her eyes were already filled with tears, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly.

She longed to unveil herself, but she knew very well that she should make a clean break.

……

The fourth stage of the matchmaking competition at Haishen Lake, known as "Haishen's Fate," has ended, marking the conclusion of the "Three Lifetimes of Destiny" event.

What he thought was a predestined love turned into a mere shake of the head. This silent rejection left Tang Wulin utterly despondent. At this moment, all he wanted was to leave this place as quickly as possible and find a place to bury himself.

"Okay, since girl number seventeen is unwilling to make a choice, we won't force her. But because there's one last step, you can't leave yet. Please all of you return to your positions."

Your previous choices have all been recorded. Next, we will proceed with the final segment of our Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event: a wish for a long and happy marriage.

"According to the rules, in the 'Perfect Match' stage, the power will be reversed, and the men will make the final choice. If you choose the woman who just chose you, then we will send you our best wishes and congratulations on your successful pairing."

"In this segment, the sea goddesses who have already chosen their boys will each have thirty seconds to say what they want to say when their chosen boy comes on stage."

Especially for boys who have been chosen by multiple girls, our sea goddess fairies will have to work hard to win over the men they love.

"If the boy chooses a girl who didn't choose him, then you have one minute to confess. However, I must remind you that if you choose someone other than the girl who initially chose you, then the chances of failure are very high."

In all previous Poseidon's Fate Blind Date Events, the failure rate for choosing someone in this way exceeded 80%.

"At the same time, there's something else I believe you all know. In this final stage, the couple who successfully pair up might encounter someone trying to abduct them. During this abduction, you can work together to overcome the obstacle. As long as you can successfully reach the shore of the Seagod Lake, you'll have succeeded."

"Alright, everyone, please get ready. May your marriage last a hundred years. We're about to begin."

"We'll still arrange the order by drawing lots. First up is Nan Fusheng. Wow, that was fast! I didn't expect you to be chosen so quickly. Looks like junior Fusheng is really lucky!"

It's him, that gigolo Nan!

Everyone's eyes turned serious; no one expected it to be his turn in the first round.

This is great! I must challenge this bastard later and make the goddess see his true colors.

"I might still have a chance to snag a bargain." Many inner court disciples thought to themselves as they looked at the five beauties in the distance: Na'er, Xu Xiaoyan, Fors, Wu Siduo, and Zheng Yiran.

The lotus leaf beneath Nan Fusheng's feet naturally drifted forward and came to the front of the boys.

If he really had to choose, he would have already made up his mind about who he wanted to be with.

"Five girls have just chosen Fusheng. Now, let's have these five girls express their feelings to him and make a final push. We'll decide the order of your confessions by drawing lots. Yinmeng, you go first."

Tang Yinmeng drew the first name, "Zheng Yiran".

Zheng Yiran looked up at Nan Fusheng, who was floating on the lake. At that moment, she suddenly found some courage. Dragging it out any longer wouldn't be a good thing. She had to be brave this time and fight for her own happiness.

She glanced at Fors in the distance, who was whispering with Na'er. The combined presence of the two stunning beauties was so captivating that people around them turned their attention away from the matchmaking event and towards the two women.

Perhaps the opponent is indeed strong, but no matter what, she will never give up as long as there is even the slightest chance.

"Fusheng, it's been a long time. Choosing you at this matchmaking event was a decision I made after careful consideration. I remember when we first met, the atmosphere between us wasn't pleasant, after all, you were the one who manipulated my body and did that kind of thing so soon after we met."

Zheng Yiran's first words caused an uproar among the surrounding crowd, and Xu Xiaoyan's gaze sharpened instantly.

No way, this guy actually did *that* kind of thing? And yet, you still fell for him, girl.

What exactly was that?

"The same thing happened during our time together in the second group. You're a grown man, but you're not considerate of girls at all. You always retaliate without hesitation when I make small gestures, just like a typical straight man."

"However, I don't dislike you for who you are. Because of my martial spirit, people around me have always had a strange sense of awe towards me since I was a child. But you don't. Although the time I spent with you was short, it made me feel very comfortable."

"If I had to choose one person at this Poseidon Lake matchmaking event, I would only choose you, because among all the people here, only you have captured my heart. I love you!"

Zheng Yiran's personality is like her martial spirit: she either doesn't make a move or she kills with a single blow. Since she's already gone all out, she might as well go all out.

"Does Fusheng have anything to say?" Lan Muzi asked.

Nan Fusheng sighed softly. If it were a different occasion, his choice might be different, but not today. He had already made his decision.

"I'm sorry, Yiran, I already have someone to choose from."

"Is that so?" Zheng Yiran gave a bitter smile. Had she ultimately misplaced her trust? The lotus leaves beneath her feet slowly retreated to their original positions. She chose not to leave; she wanted to witness with her own eyes who the "she" he had chosen truly was!

Lan Muzi sighed, "It's a pity. Well then, who's next?"

"Wu Siduo!" Tang Yinmeng uttered the name.

Wu Siduo took a deep breath and looked intently at Nan Fusheng. "If I choose you, will you choose me?"

Wu Siduo was strong-willed by nature. Even though she had a pretty good idea of ​​her own fate after seeing Zheng Yiran's result, she still had to ask.

Nan Fusheng didn't answer, he just shook his head. Wu Siduo's situation was different from Zheng Yiran's; Zheng Yiran, at least, had had a flirtatious relationship with him and had feelings for him.

But Wu Siduo's feelings for Nan Fusheng are purely a matter of personality; her feelings for him are probably more out of stubbornness, not wanting to lose to Fors.

"Okay, I understand."

After receiving Nan Fusheng's silent reply, Wu Siduo's face turned somewhat pale. Even though she didn't have many feelings for Nan Fusheng, the fact that her first confession had ended so abruptly was definitely a significant blow to her.

"I'm going to challenge you in a minute." This was Wu Siduo's choice. Fors was her unresolved issue, but Nan Fusheng had also defeated her before. Even if she couldn't fight Fors today, she would beat up Nan Fusheng first.

"Junior, you really have committed many sins!" Tang Yinmeng shook her head. "Then please welcome the next one, Xu Xiaoyan."

The lotus leaves beneath Xu Xiaoyan's feet swayed gently. Looking at Nan Fusheng not far away, her gaze became somewhat unfocused. "The first time we met was during the Ascension Platform in the midst of the riots. At that time, we didn't know each other; we were just rivals."

"At the time, I just thought you were pretty, but in the battle that followed, you defeated my brother and saved me when I was surrounded by the soul beasts inside."

From that moment on, you left a mark on my heart. The hero rescuing the damsel in distress might be a cliché, but only when you're in that situation do you understand what it feels like.

"After that, I joined East Sea Academy. We trained and fought together. Those were the happiest days of my life. Although it was tiring, it was very fulfilling. Until I came to Shrek Academy..."

At this point, Xu Xiaoyan gave Nan Fusheng a somewhat resentful look and continued, "When we arrived in Shrek City, you took advantage of our trip out and somehow managed to get involved with Fors, and even acted like you had a good relationship with him."

"At the time, I didn't pay much attention. After all, Fors is so beautiful, how could she possibly fall for you so easily? But it turns out, even though we've only known each other for a few days, you actually managed to win her over."

What?! So the goddess and this guy's acquaintance was that simple?! Damn, why am I not so lucky?!

Upon hearing this, many inner court disciples were filled with regret, realizing that they had missed the opportunity to win the favor of a young goddess because they usually stayed in the inner court.

Just from Xu Xiaoyan's account, they could probably imagine that when Fors first arrived in Shrek City, he was an adorable, clueless girl, but then he encountered Nan Fusheng, that big bad wolf, and was tricked and taken away by him.

"I was really angry at the time. I was the one who arrived first, and you were flirting with other women. I remember we had a cold war for a while, but we made up later for some reasons."

"In our subsequent interactions, Fors took the initiative to explain her relationship with you, and I understood that she wasn't a bad person. She just felt that you were very kind to her, so she couldn't help but get close to you."

After that, whether it was the journey to the Star Luo Continent or the days we spent together in the inner courtyard, I gradually learned about her background and began to accept her.

"To be honest, I'm a greedy girl. I don't want to share my lover with another girl, but..."

At this point, Xu Xiaoyan took a deep breath, a slight blush creeping onto her face. "We've all been together for so long, it's probably hard to separate you and Fors now. So, let's live together from now on."

Silence! Utter silence filled the room!

No one expected that Xu Xiaoyan would say such outrageous things at the Poseidon Lake matchmaking event, that she would actually be willing to share her lover with others.

That damned bastard! That damn gigolo!

In an instant, Nan Fusheng was bombarded with a barrage of murderous glares! Even the girls looked at him with disdain.

However, Nan Fusheng ignored those gazes and instead looked at Xu Xiaoyan.

It was precisely because they had spent so much time together that he understood how difficult it was for Xu Xiaoyan to make this decision. Although she usually appeared gentle and weak, Xu Xiaoyan was actually very strong-willed at heart.

"Don't overthink it! I just don't want Fors to be sad, after all, she likes you a lot too. Besides, her position in the Spirit Pagoda is not low, and she will definitely be able to help you secure your position as a councilor in the future," Xu Xiaoyan said softly.

"Ahem, alright. Now it's next, Fors." Lan Muzi quickly interrupted Xu Xiaoyan. If this junior continued talking, who knows what this matchmaking event would become.

"Although things aren't much better now." Lan Muzi glanced at Nan Fusheng with a subtle look. This junior is really lucky! Five exceptionally talented female students chose him.

The two goddesses of the inner courtyard need no introduction. Zheng Yiran, Wu Siduo, and Xu Xiaoyan are all stunning beauties. Xu Xiaoyan is even willing to let him have two girlfriends at the same time. How can anyone not be envious?
