The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1600 - 1598: Situ Xing’s Suggestion

"Oh, what is it about?" Situ Xing rarely uses this tone with the Demon King, which made the Demon King a bit curious.

Situ Xing glanced at Ling Feng, giving Ling Feng a foreboding feeling.

"This matter might cause the Princess some grievances!" Situ Xing said solemnly, "If I’m not mistaken, the Son-in-law of the Emperor’s cultivation should be at the Mid Divine Sea Realm, right?"

Ling Feng grinned, "That’s right."

Situ Xing said, "Your Majesty, I boldly request the Son-in-law of the Emperor to accompany me to the Abyssal Battlefield. I guarantee it won’t take long, and the Son-in-law will successfully advance to the Late Divine Sea Realm!"

Damn! Ling Feng couldn’t help but vent internally. He suddenly remembered Princess Yunxuan whispering something to Situ Xing earlier—could it be this matter?

"As the Son-in-law, isn’t it a joke that your strength is weaker than the Princess?" Situ Xing said seriously, "What kind of status does the Princess have? The person she marries must be an elite. Ling Feng has great potential but hasn’t fully realized it! I believe the Son-in-law needs further honing."

"But this will have to trouble the Princess a bit because she and the Son-in-law will have to be separated for a time!" Situ Xing said.

Princess Yun Xuan immediately said, "It’s not a problem, Uncle Situ. My husband must be a super master who stands above all, but at least his strength should surpass mine. Since Uncle Situ is eager to train Ling Feng, I thank Uncle Situ on behalf of my husband!"

Looking at Princess Yun Xuan’s sincere face, Ling Feng felt speechless; truly an acting talent!

The Demon King paused for a moment, knowing this was a small trick by Princess Yun Xuan, but what Situ Xing said made sense too. Ling Feng, as the Princess’s Son-in-law, can’t stay at the Mid Divine Sea Realm while the Princess is already at the Divine Sea Realm Peak, can he?

Otherwise, what would the world think? Saying that even the Princess’s Son-in-law isn’t as strong as the Princess? Wouldn’t that damage the Princess’s reputation?

Besides, taking this opportunity to let Situ thoroughly test Ling Feng isn’t a bad thing either!

With this in mind, the Demon King nodded, "Alright, Situ is right. Ling Feng, stay with General Situ this time and cultivate hard. When you reach the Late Divine Sea Realm, I’ll hold a grand wedding for you and Xuan’er!"

Ling Feng sighed softly. What more could he say now? He could only obey.

Princess Yun Xuan couldn’t be happier. Advancing from the Mid Divine Sea Realm to the Late Divine Sea Realm takes at least several years at the fastest, and at the slowest, it might take ten or even dozens of years! Thus, she successfully bought some time.

As for the future, who knows what might happen? Princess Yun Xuan thought secretly.

The banquet quickly came to an end, and Ling Feng and the others were escorted out.

"Brother Ling, congratulations! You’ve truly captured the Princess’s favor; I’m genuinely happy for you!" Murong Xingguang said sincerely.

"Hmph!" Xue Wuheng looked grim, snorting coldly and turning away.

"It seems Xue Wuheng has quite an issue with Brother Ling!" Murong Xingguang chuckled, "There are always self-important people in this world!"

Ling Feng said indifferently, "There are plenty of people who don’t like me; what does Xue Wuheng count for? By the way, Brother Murong, didn’t you say there was something you needed my help with before?"

Murong Xingguang smiled slightly, "It’s already late. Let’s talk about it when I visit you personally tomorrow!"

"Alright then, we’ll leave it at that!" After saying goodbye, Ling Feng returned to his courtyard.

Early the next morning, Ling Feng heard Xiong Yan say a visitor had arrived.

When he went out, sure enough, it was Murong Xingguang, but this time, Murong Xingguang wasn’t alone; he brought a maid. The maid was pretty, not stunningly beautiful, but gave off a very gentle feeling.

"Brother Ling, today I’m here under my father’s orders to offer my congratulations to you!" Murong Xingguang said cheerfully.

"Under the orders of the Murong Family Head?" Ling Feng was a bit surprised. "What does this mean?"

"Don’t you know? The news of you becoming the Princess’s Husband has spread among all the prominent families in the Imperial Capital!" Murong Xingguang said with a smile, "You might find your doorstep crowded with visitors in the next few days!"

Ling Feng said with a headache, "It can’t be like that, can it? That’s just too..."

"That’s reality!" Murong Xingguang shrugged, "Coincidentally, my family knows about my good relationship with you, so they sent me to congratulate you first!"

Ling Feng shook his head, "Come in; I’m sure you also have other things to say to me!"

Murong Xingguang laughed, then spoke to the maid beside him, "Xiao Yu, wait for me here, I’ll go chat with Brother Ling inside."

When they entered inside, Ling Feng smiled and said, "Brother Murong, this maid named Xiao Yu is the key reason you came to see me, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have brought her along!"

Murong Xingguang sighed bitterly, nodding, "Yes, indeed! Moreover... Xiao Yu is the girl I told you that I like!"

Ling Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit sentimental; he never expected Murong Xingguang would like his maid and act so faithfully. It didn’t fit his status as the eldest son at all!

"So, what do you need me to do?" Ling Feng asked.

Murong Xingguang pondered for a moment and said, "The biggest obstacle between me and Xiao Yu is Xiao Yu’s identity. As long as she remains by my side as my maid, we can never truly be together!"

Ling Feng nodded; this was obvious.

"Ling Feng, can I ask you for a favor, to recognize Xiao Yu as your sister?" Murong Xingguang said solemnly, "I investigated; Xiao Yu was adopted by the Murong House when she was young, and we just know she was a refugee, so..."

Ling Feng said thoughtfully, "You mean, Xiao Yu is my long-lost sister? Because I’m now the Princess’s Husband, my status is worthy of attention, and you want to use this way to give Xiao Yu a more respectable identity?"

"That’s right!" Murong Xingguang sighed, "I can’t think of any other way except for this, unless... unless I have the courage to break with my family, but... Xiao Yu would never let me do that!"

Ling Feng thought for a moment and said, "How confident are you in this approach?"

"I don’t know!" Murong Xingguang shook his head, "But at least it might give me a shred of hope!"

"Does Xiao Yu know about this?"

"She doesn’t know yet!" Murong Xingguang said.
