My Demonic Cult's Holy Maiden
Page 223
However, things are different now. He has already eliminated the stubborn ones, and Su Chengying has left a way out for the Xu family, but they can't cause any trouble.
Handing the Blood God Sect over to Su Yue won't cause any major problems.
"Yue'er, today is the day you are crowned as the Holy Maiden of the Blood God Cult. Are you ready?"
Titles like "Holy Maiden" and "Holy Son" are generally used to refer to successors. If Su Yue becomes the Holy Maiden, then she will be the next leader of the Blood God Cult.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yue looked at her parents and said, "I want to go to the Great Yun Dynasty, right now!"
Xu Shuqin and Su Chengying were both stunned, staring at Su Yue in astonishment. Today was the day Su Yue was to announce that she had become the Holy Maiden of the Blood God Sect!
Su Cheng frowned, looking displeased: "Are you going to find that kid?"
Xu Shuqin had already told him about Qi Yu's existence, and he was actually against it because he had investigated Qi Yu and found that he had nothing outstanding about him and was not good enough for Su Yue.
Su Yue nodded. "I'm going to find him. I'm going to marry him!"
Su Chengying's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. He had been happy, but this incident made him feel gloomy.
Xu Shuqin sighed as she watched her husband and daughter fuming over this. "Yue'er, I don't object to you going to see him, but if you're going to marry him, you should at least bring him back so your father can see him!"
Su Yue remained calm and composed, saying, "Then I'll go to the Great Yun Dynasty to find him first. I'll bring him to see you at a later time."
Su Chengying's face darkened, and he scolded, "What kind of behavior is it for an unmarried young lady to travel so far to a man's house? You are not allowed to go!"
"If you really want to marry him, it's not impossible. Have him come to see me. Once I agree, he can come to fetch you with all the proper betrothal gifts and a grand wedding procession!"
Su Yue said expressionlessly, "I'm just meeting him; I don't necessarily have to marry him!"
For the past month, Qi Yu's image has been constantly on her mind; she has fallen in love with this scholar who has nothing.
If she really has to find someone to marry, then she hopes it's a choice she can make herself.
Other girls' marriages have nothing to do with the parties involved; it's all arranged by their parents and matchmakers, and the two people basically don't know each other very well.
But she was different, because she was strong enough, and her parents weren't the kind of stubborn old-fashioned people.
Just explain it to them and that will be fine.
They simply hadn't met Qi Yu before, so they were prejudiced against him.
Su Chengying's expression softened slightly upon hearing Su Yue's words.
There is still room for maneuver!
"Meeting is fine, but I want to come along!"
A pig wanted to provide cabbage for his family, but they broke his leg!
Su Yue didn't think much of it. "Go ahead and go. She's not going to have an affair. What's there to be secretive about?"
"Then you guys go ahead. I'm going to see my grandfather first, and then I'll head to the Great Yun Dynasty!" Su Yue said.
Su Chengying frowned and said, "Those Blood God Sect members are all waiting for you!"
Su Yue waved her hand and said, "If I marry Qi Yu, I naturally won't become a saintess, so Father, don't bother. I won't become a saintess!"
Su Chengying's face darkened. Su Yue used to be very eager to become the Holy Maiden, but she changed after returning from Jiangzhou City.
Is it because of this Qi Yu?
Does that mean I can't retire early?
Damn it!
We must kill him!
In Jiangzhou City, thousands of miles away, Qi Yu is telling the children today's story under a big banyan tree.
Suddenly, a chill ran down my spine, and I felt a sudden panic for no reason.
"Brother Qi Yu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Tie Zhu asked.
Grandpa Liu has recovered from his illness, and Tiezhu has returned to his former lively and innocent self.
Qi Yu shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little cold!"
Shaking his head, Qi Yu continued telling the story.
But as they were talking, an urgent voice came from afar.
"Brother Qi Yu, someone from your family has come! You should go back home quickly!"
Qi Yu was slightly taken aback. Someone had come to his house?
Qi Yu looked at Daya running over and asked, "Who's here?"
Da Ya is Aunt Li's eldest daughter. Her real name is Li Yuxiu, given to her by Qi Yu's older brother, Qi Lin.
Da Ya, panting, spoke haltingly, "Yes, it's Master Liu and Miss Liu who have arrived, and they've brought many boxes!"
Qi Yu was speechless. Master Liu and Miss Liu were powerful local figures in Jiangzhou City, and even the prefect had to show them deference.
He had agreed to go boating on the lake with Miss Liu because he didn't want to offend the Liu family, so he reluctantly agreed as a perfunctory gesture. But he never expected that Miss Liu would stand him up.
What are they doing bringing boxes to my house now?
He can't force me to marry him?

Chapter Twenty Panic
Qi Yu rushed home and saw a group of people standing in his yard.
Among them was a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes, with thick eyebrows and large, narrow eyes, who looked like a shifty-eyed scoundrel.
This man, surnamed Liu, was the richest man in Jiangzhou City, even more so than Cheng Yuande.
When Master Liu saw Qi Yu return, a smile appeared on his face. He then instructed a servant to bring Qi Yu over.
Led by a servant, Qi Yu arrived in front of Master Liu, bowed, and greeted him.
"I wonder what brings Master Liu to my humble courtyard?"
Master Liu looked at Qi Yu, chuckled, and said, "Qi Yu, my daughter greatly admires you, so I've come to present betrothal gifts!"
Qi Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "Offer betrothal gifts? Master Liu, you've got it backwards, haven't you? Putting aside whether I'm suitable to marry Miss Liu, even if I were to marry her, shouldn't I be the one offering betrothal gifts?"
Master Liu shook his head and said, "We've come to offer betrothal gifts, but my requirement is that you marry into our family!"
Qi Yu was speechless. What was this goatee-bearded, squinty-eyed uncle thinking?
If you really want to marry into the Cheng family, isn't the Cheng family better than your Liu family?
Moreover, Miss Cheng Xin of the Cheng family is known for her gentleness and virtue, unlike yours.
"I'm sorry, Master Liu, I have no intention of marrying into your family, and I certainly won't marry your daughter." Qi Yu didn't want to waste words with this guy.
If it weren't for the fear of the Liu family's power, they would have already asked them to leave.
Master Liu's already small eyes smiled again, making it look as if he had closed them, leaving only a slit.
"Qi Yu, your brother is the pride and hero of our Jiangzhou City. It is for his sake that I risked being implicated as a family member to let you marry into the family. I hope you will not make a mistake."
This is something that Qi Yu has always found strange: suddenly everyone is trying to sell their daughters. What happened?
"I'm sorry, Master Liu, I absolutely refuse to marry into your family. Please leave!" Qi Yu said, raising his hand.
Master Liu snorted coldly and said, "Qi Yu, don't be ungrateful. Although I don't know what your relationship is with the Prefect, in this Jiangzhou City, I, Liu Yihai, call the shots."
Qi Yu keenly grasped the key phrase: "Prefect!"
So many matchmakers came to the door, was it related to the prefect?
But he didn't know the prefect!
Without giving it much thought, I kept it to myself. The problem now is this Liu Yihai.
"Master Liu, please leave!"
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences. Since Qi Yu's kind advice won't work, then we'll have to resort to force." Liu Yihai waved his hand and said, "Take Qi Yu back and we'll arrange a wedding ceremony on a chosen date!"
Qi Yu frowned. This guy was forcibly abducting an innocent man!
Bah! He's not even married yet, what kind of married man is he!
No sooner had Liu Yihai finished speaking than several servants came up, preparing to restrain Qi Yu and forcibly take him away.
Is Taekwondo that I learned on my own effective?
so many people!
But now, whether it's useful or not, we have to put up a fight.
Qi Yu slightly parted his feet, preparing to make his move.
A servant stepped forward and raised his hand to grab Qi Yu's arm.
Qi Yu was about to move when, in the next moment, a pebble struck the servant's chin.
Qi Yu vaguely heard a 'crack' sound, and then the servant collapsed and lost consciousness.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The sound of something cutting through the air rang out, and then the impact struck several servants who had surrounded them, causing them to fall to the ground immediately.
This sudden turn of events left everyone in the courtyard stunned.
It was at this moment that a woman in a white dress walked in through the main entrance. She was very ordinary-looking and nothing particularly outstanding.
But in that instant, Qi Yu felt as if she were the most beautiful person in the world.
Her eyes, as clear and bright as autumn water, were devoid of any emotion, appearing cold and indifferent, as if nothing could catch her eye.
Qi Yu's Adam's apple bobbed, as if he wanted to say something, but the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a single one.
After Su Yue walked in, her gaze remained fixed on Qi Yu. Their eyes met, but neither of them said anything.
"Who are you?" Liu Yihai's voice broke the eeriness.
Su Yue turned her head to look at Liu Yihai, her eyes fixed on him as if he were looking at a dead man.
She had been there for a while and knew Liu Yihai's purpose.
You dare to try and steal my man?
