Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1066 - 1064: How Am I Supposed to Propose When She’s Not Even Here?!

Dongmen Nu led the marriage proposal procession with grand gifts, marching into the main hall magnificently.

That demeanor.

It didn't seem like a visit for a proposal.

More like coming to flatten the Xuan Clan.

Dongmen Nu walked at the forefront of the procession, hands clasped behind his back, looking down upon everything.

In the distance, he caught a glimpse of

Clan Leader Mo Chen seated with an upright posture, wearing an expression as if facing a formidable enemy.

He glanced again, but did not see Mo Ningxiang anywhere on either side.

But this was not surprising.

The young girl must be shy, not daring to come out and meet people.

It's understandable.

However, what puzzled Dongmen Nu was

the absence of Lin Fan and Diwu Yun'er.

This was somewhat odd.

Logically, with his arrival for a proposal, the first person to object should have been Lin Fan.

But now, there was no sign of him; could it be that he's hiding like a turtle, chickening out?

Dongmen Nu sneered contemptuously, thinking Lin Fan was nothing more than this; he had overestimated this trash.

"Halt!"

Suddenly.

A stern shout exploded in the front.

Dongmen Nu slowly stopped his steps, looking ahead with displeasure.

He thought it was Lin Fan, but it turned out to be two insignificant minions.

"To see the Clan Leader, you must disarm!"

The two soldiers, standing on each side.

Hands on their sword hilts, with solemn and intense expressions, their eyes sharp and powerful.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Before Dongmen Nu could speak, his followers behind him had already drawn their weapons in unison, pointing at the two soldiers blocking the way.

"How dare you! Blocking Master Dongmen's way, tired of living?!"

The two soldiers were not to be outdone, instantly drawing their sabers.

Immediately!

The smell of gunpowder arose, and the atmosphere turned intense at once.

Swords were drawn, ready to strike.

"These are the rules! Disarm!"

The Xuan Clan soldiers gritted their teeth, speaking viciously.

Dongmen Nu's followers were equally unwilling to yield, confronting them tit for tat.

"Get lost!"

From beginning to end.

Dongmen Nu said nothing, his lips slightly curved into a shallow smile.

Yet his eyes were exceptionally cold, chilling to the bone, as he looked toward Mo Chen seated at the center.

Mo Chen also remained silent.

It seemed these soldiers must have been his arrangement, to test Dongmen Nu's depth.

If it weren't at his behest, who would dare block the path of Dongmen Nu from the Heavenly Clan; it would be courting death!

Mo Chen did not avoid Dongmen Nu's icy gaze, calmly and confidently looking back at him.

For a long while.

He finally spoke slowly.

"Alright, let them pass!"

Dongmen Nu smiled slightly, saying: "Thank you, Clan Leader Mo."

The two soldiers reluctantly stepped aside.

The impending battle was thus easily defused without escalating into a more intense conflict.

Yet it subconsciously planted the seeds of anger in everyone's hearts.

Dongmen Nu strode up to Mo Chen, clasped his hands, and slightly bowed.

"Dongmen Nu of the Heavenly Clan, greets Clan Leader Mo!"

"No need for formalities, Master Dongmen."

"Indeed, there is no need for formalities."

Dongmen Nu took no offense, climbing up the pole offered.

With a wave of his hand, his followers began setting down heavy chests, one after another, in front of Mo Chen.

Three hundred chests altogether!

They filled the space in front of Mo Chen completely, leaving no room to step.

Dongmen Nu observed Mo Chen's expression, face ashen and stiff, seemingly deeply displeased.

He sneered inwardly.

Whether you're willing or not, I will take Mo Ningxiang today!

Let's see if you have the ability to stop me!

Thinking this in his mind, the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted into a scornful smile.

"From now on, we will be family, naturally there's no need for formality! Isn't that right, Clan Leader Mo… no, should be Father-in-law."

This address made Mo Chen feel profoundly uncomfortable inside.

He glanced at Dongmen Nu.

The latter had a wicked grin, looking extremely pleased.

Mo Chen's face twitched slightly, the veins on his clenched fists bulging, wishing he could slap Dongmen Nu right across the face.

He, Mo Chen, when has he ever suffered such humiliation?

The Xuan Clan, when have they ever endured such blatant bullying?!

Dongmen Nu relies on the power of the Heavenly Clan, arrogant and dismissive, not caring about me or the Xuan Clan at all!

However.

Mo Chen still suppressed his anger.

He knew that this shouldn't be Dongmen Nu's personal act; he represents the attitude of the entire Heavenly Clan.

Having issues with Dongmen Nu means having issues with the entire Heavenly Clan.

The fact is cruel, and even if one doesn't want to admit it, they must.

Right now.

Mo Chen faces a very severe problem.

His daughter's safety or the safety of the Xuan Clan, he must choose one between the two.

Sacrificing his daughter for precarious stability, or protecting her from a major attack by the Heavenly Clan.

The heavy pressure nearly suffocates Mo Chen.

He remains silent.

A long silence.

"Father-in-law, why isn't the little Princess here? Is she shy and unwilling to come out?"

Dongmen Nu had long seen Mo Chen deliberately avoiding him.

This makes him even more complacent, filled with high spirits.

Suddenly.

He steps forward, his sharp eyes staring straight at Mo Chen, leaving him no room to hide.

"Mo Chen, call out Mo Ningxiang."

Suddenly!

Dongmen Nu changes his tone, lowering his voice with a threatening manner.

Mo Chen's body suddenly trembles, staring blankly at Dongmen Nu.

The corner of his mouth moves slightly.

"Ningxiang... is not here."

"Of course, I know she's not here; I'm not blind. So quickly call her out, I've brought these three hundred chests of betrothal gifts! Clan Leader Mo must not go back on his words."

"Young Master Dongmen misunderstands. I meant that Ningxiang is no longer in the Xuan Clan."

Mo Chen takes a deep breath and speaks calmly.

"What?!"

Dongmen Nu never anticipated Mo Chen would have such a move!

His eyes widen, a look of disbelief.

But immediately!

His expression changes drastically!

Furious and imposing!

Dongmen Nu's face twists with a cruel grin, his eyes turning blood-red, his features contorted and frightening.

"Old fool! You're playing me?! Hurry up and hand over Mo Ningxiang, or I'll destroy your Xuan Clan today!"

An ultimate humiliation!

An ultimate humiliation!

He, the dignified son of the Heavenly Clan, is being played like a dog, running around in circles!

Well then!

Since the beginning, he treated my words like wind past his ears!

It's completely ignoring him, Dongmen Nu, and the Heavenly Clan!

Across the Sumeru Continent, wherever the Heavenly Clan wants, they can flatten with just a finger!

The Xuan Clan is so foolish!

All for a woman, ending in annihilation!

Utter foolishness!

Dongmen Nu's tightened body trembles violently, overcome with rage.

In the sight of everyone, and failing to take away a woman after leaving betrothal gifts, where can he put this face?

Mo Chen's expression remains calm, speaking quietly: "Young Master Dongmen, please stay calm; don't get agitated."

"You motherf- make me calm?! She's not even here, what proposal am I making?! Mo Chen, you are deliberately playing me; do you want to be irreconcilable with the Heavenly Clan?!"

"I wouldn't dare."

"You still know not to dare?! If you don't hand over Mo Ningxiang, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Young Master Dongmen, please forgive, Ningxiang has indeed already left the Xuan Clan. She left three days ago."

"Left?! Where's she gone?! With whom?! That's your daughter, how can you..."

Before the words were finished, Mo Chen coldly interrupts.

"Lin Fan."

Buzz—

Dongmen Nu's mind goes blank.

Lin Fan? Lin Fan again?!

He knew this kid wouldn't stay out of it!

But he didn't expect the kid actually played him, directly taking Mo Ningxiang out of the Xuan Clan!

Dongmen Nu breathes heavily, the anger on his face increasingly uncontrollable.

Sudden!

He lifts his head to look at Mo Chen.

His chilling eyes carrying a heavy murderous intent!

The atmosphere solidifies once more.

The Xuan Clan is in peril.

However.

Mo Yunsheng has stood aside from the beginning, as if what happened has nothing to do with him.

Silent, uninvolved.
