Chapter 0160 – Son-in-Law, Come and Give Me a Drink – Absolute Returns

The gaze of the Evil Demon Dao Alliance’s Alliance Master swept across the entire room, and the originally noisy banquet hall was suddenly silent.

His gaze, from Qin Xia Ling’s, moved to mine. I lowered my head, not daring to meet his eyes.

I could feel his gaze, scrutinizing me. I felt nervous, but I didn’t deliberately hide it, how could an ordinary servant not be nervous on such an occasion?

Although I knew that my identity, sooner or later, would be recognized, I tried, as much as possible, not to expose myself.

Qin Batian, the head of the Evil Devil Dao Alliance, looked at me and asked:

“This young warrior, yes?”

Just then, Qin Xia Ling, suddenly said loudly:

“He’s my boyfriend!”

That was her plan, she wanted, in this way, to protect me.

My plan, was to confess directly, while her plan, was to go for broke. Although I had already guessed before, that she might do this, but seeing with my own eyes, that she was so brave and selfless, I still couldn’t help but be moved. She is the granddaughter of the Evil Devil Dao Alliance’s Alliance Leader, for her to say such words in front of so many people, how much courage does this require?

“Wow!”

The crowd exploded, and Cao Xin and his father, the True Dragon Estate Master, were among the crowd.

True Dragon Manor Master, his face was blue, his son, was courting Qin Xia Ling, while Qin Xia Ling, brought another man, to the banquet.

Cao Xin, on the other hand, looked at us with a smile on his face, but his heart was definitely filled with anger and humiliation.

Qin Batian, raising his hand, signaled the crowd to be quiet.

“I didn’t ask you.”

He told Qin Xia Ling, finished, then, looking at me again, asked:

“And you are, this young warrior?”

“My name is Swordsmoke.”

“What school do you study under?”

“I am a servant of Young Master Xu Long of the Gansu Western Sword Sect.”

“Servant?!”

In the crowd, exclamations of shock erupted once again, even stronger than just now.

Qin Batian, has always been happy and angry, but at this moment, he couldn’t hide, the shock in his heart.

He looked at Qin Xia Ling, as if to say: do you really want this? Qin Xia Ling, firmly nodded her head, her eyes, saying, Yes, this is what I want.

Qin Batian’s gaze, once again, fell on my body, how much did he really see?

“Young Swordsman.”

Although I said I was a servant, he called me “Young Warrior”.

“This child, Xia Ling, has loved pranks since she was a child, and she especially likes to, well, scare people. She once almost went off the deep end because she practiced sword techniques backwards. Today, she brought you here again, trying to scare me.”

Qin Batian, wanted to explain this matter, as Qin Xia Ling’s prank.

“Everyone is already surprised, your mission, done, hard work. Next time, I’ll treat you well, you today, go back first.”

Qin Batian, wanting to put things to rest, some people, may believe that this is just a prank by Qin Xia Ling, some people, may think that Qin Batian, is condoning Qin Xia Ling.

But one thing, for sure, no one would believe that I was really Qin Xia Ling’s boyfriend.

But Qin Xia Ling, did not intend, to stop there.

“Grandpa, you must have been scared by me that day, right? If it wasn’t for you, I would have died long ago, so I will, from now on, never play any more pranks. He, is someone I truly love.”

Everyone’s gazes, once again, focused on my body, some, looking at me, revealed expressions of disgust, while others, revealed expressions of sympathy for Qin Batian.

Although they didn’t say anything, their expressions were clearly saying, “What a girl!” “Alliance Master, you can’t control your granddaughter either!”

“You like him?”

“Yes.”

Qin Xia Ling, without hesitation, replied.

Between the two of them, swords were drawn and the atmosphere, even more tense than the match just now, was tense. Aside from Cao Xin and True Dragon Manor Master, everyone else watched this scene with interest.

“So, you’re willing to marry him?”

Hearing the word “marriage”, Qin Xia Ling, froze.

“Marriage, it’s a big life event, and we still need to, well, get to know each other better.”

“You’ve already announced it in front of so many people, what’s there to hesitate about? Fine, since you like him, I’ll fulfill you both.”

“Grandpa!”

“I will now, organize a wedding for you, haven’t you always wanted to, make your own decisions? You don’t want to accept a political marriage? Well, I’ll fulfill you!”

Qin Batian, ignoring Qin Xia Ling’s objections, he continued:

“Men, prepare for the wedding!”

Qin Batian, with an order, his men, immediately began to prepare for the wedding.

Qin Xia Ling, panicked, she did not expect that her grandfather, would be so strong that he would force her to get married in front of so many people.

“I haven’t met his family yet.”

“The children of the jungle are not formal, they will understand, you will, later, visit them again.”

Qin Xia Ling, helplessly looking at me, I, too, did not expect that things would develop to this point.

“My good granddaughter-in-law, come, have a drink with me.”

Son-in-law? It’s the first time I’ve heard someone call me that, and it’s the Evil Demon Alliance! Dad, the Demon Lord is going to be my in-laws!

I took the glass of wine that Qin Batian, handed over to me, this was the first time, I drank with him.

“Thanks.”

“From now on, Xia Ling is counting on you.”

I could tell from his deep and icy eyes, that he had already seen through me, but he didn’t reveal me in public, he wanted to solve, Qin Xia Ling’s matter first, and then deal with me.

He looked at me and smiled, it wasn’t a friendly smile, it was a warning.

The preparations for the wedding, were quickly completed, the Evil Devil Dao Alliance, would often organize weddings for their disciples, so they were very experienced.

Qin Xia Ling, finally surrendered.

“Stop it! I admit defeat, we’re not getting married.”

Qin Batian, then, revealed a smile.

You want to fight me? You’re still a bit young!

I concede, Grandpa, but I must explain.

Qin Xia Ling, to the crowd, explained what had happened.

“Seniors and heroes, I’m sorry that I, today, have caused trouble for you all. There’s a reason why I’m doing this, someone tried to kill him because of me, that’s why I’m doing this, trying to protect him.”

Someone in the crowd applauded, saying:

“Bravo!”

That person, is Cao Xin.

“It’s so great that you’ve gone to such lengths for this, ugly, dirty servant!”

He led the applause, and the others, followed.

I sensed that Cao Xin, had gone mad with anger, which was just what I wanted, people are most likely to make mistakes when they are angry. Come on, let me see, what else you have up your sleeve.

Qin Xia Ling, exclaimed:

“If in the future, who dares to bully him, I will definitely take revenge! My grandfather, from a young age, taught me to weed out the strong and support the weak, I hope everyone, take this as a warning!”
