Chapter 228 Playing Cards

On their way back, Liu Ruxuan and Sikong Hao passed through a forest. On one of the trees, a person was resting with their eyes closed. Sikong Hao moved too fast; Liu Ruxuan's gaze could only sweep over the person for a fleeting moment.

In just 0.1 seconds, Liu Ruxuan's heart sank.

The man's figure and the feeling he gave Liu Ruxuan were very similar to Ye Mobei, the second prince of the Nine Swamps Continent. Liu Ruxuan shook her head. She had killed him with her own hands; how could he possibly appear on the Qian Yuan Continent?

Although Sikong Hao was focused on traveling, he noticed that Liu Ruxuan was distracted, and he suddenly became curious about what she was daydreaming about.

However, Sikong Hao suppressed his curiosity and ultimately asked nothing.

Sikong Hao watched Liu Ruxuan enter Yongrentang before leaving.

When Xi Yue saw Liu Ruxuan return, she hurriedly came to greet her: "Miss, something terrible has happened! The Lu family sent gifts, and I saw this among them!"

Xi Yue pulled a red invitation card from her sleeve. Liu Ruxuan took it, opened it, and was shocked when she saw the first line of text!

The post contained two main points: first, it expressed a desire to establish a marriage alliance with the Liu family; second, it expressed gratitude to Liu Ruxuan for saving Lu Zhengyi.

After reading the post, Liu Ruxuan burned it immediately: "This matter must not be spread." Liu Ruxuan instructed Xiyue that if this matter reached Dugu Juechen, the Lu family would be doomed!

Xi Yue nodded: "Understood, Miss."

Lu Fei was secretly delighted. He had someone deliver the gift, which included a note that he had carefully considered for a long time. If the Lu and Liu families became a couple, the Divine Sword in Liu Ruxuan's hands would be enough to bring glory to their families!

However, he was unaware that the post he had painstakingly written was casually burned by Liu Ruxuan after just one glance.

"Uncle, what's making you so happy?" Lu Zhengyi walked over from not far away and saw Lu Fei looking so pleased with himself.

When Lu Fei saw Lu Zhengyi arrive, he hurriedly helped him to sit down on the stone bench: "Nephew, I have good news for you. Your uncle delivered a gift to Miss Liu on your behalf today. I believe your good match will be finalized soon."

Lu Zhengyi's eyes widened slightly upon hearing this: "Uncle, you're not joking, are you? Ruxuan is General Liu's daughter and the head of the Pharmacist Association. How could she possibly be interested in me!"

"You silly child, does the sect leader not want to get married? Uncle will help you pursue her, just wait to settle down." Although Lu Fei only had his eye on the Divine Sword, he also felt that Liu Ruxuan's appearance was a good match for Lu Zhengyi.

Lu Zhengyi couldn't help but smile wryly. When he was in the Heavenly Spirit Sect, he didn't know much about Liu Ruxuan. Her elder brother was actually the sect leader's disciple, and she was the head of the Pharmacist Association after the Jiang family. It seemed that he was even more out of his league.

"What are you thinking? Don't you believe your uncle? Or what?" Lu Fei was full of confidence in himself.

"Uh, it's nothing, Uncle, just don't go too far!" Lu Zhengyi said with an awkward smile.

Lu Fei frowned, then quickly relaxed. He felt that Lu Zhengyi lacked confidence in himself.

However, he was the only ninth-level expert in the entire Qian Yuan Continent. If he were to personally propose marriage on behalf of Lu Zhengyi, the entire Liu family would probably be eager to curry favor with him. Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Lu Fei's lips.

"Thirty thousand!" Liu Ruxuan took a card and placed it in the middle of the square table. Xi Yue, Chu Xia, and Chu Jie were in a flurry of activity.

Xi Yue: "Wait a minute, let me see."

Chu Jie: "Me, should I eat it...?"

Early Summer: "Don't move, I'll touch you!"

Liu Ruxuan was bored, so she polished a set of mahjong tiles with a ceramic tool and taught a few people how to play. In just a few rounds, Liu Ruxuan won so badly that the people cried and screamed.

In early summer, after considering the number 30,000 and hesitating for a long time, she finally offered a "six".
