Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

I must say, the four from the Flora Sect were quite arrogant, each with an air of confidence and fearlessness. On the other side, Yu Xianhe and the two elders were all smiles, seemingly afraid to offend the guests, which only added to Ye Feng's confusion.

However, the matter at hand had little to do with him, so Ye Feng chose to merely watch from the sidelines without speaking up.

Just then, another lady dressed in gaudy red and purple, no longer young but still trying to appear so, cast a cold glance at Ye Feng and said, "This newcomer seems to be highly regarded by Valley Master Yu, definitely no ordinary person, even being Miss Yu's half master. Might I inquire as to your esteemed identity?"

This was an inquiry into Ye Feng's background. Yu Xianhe replied with a slight smile, standing up and saying, "It seems that you are not aware of Mr. Ye's background, though I'm certain you've heard of him before."

"Certainly we've heard of him? That seems questionable. Had he been from one of the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts, that would be another matter. We've met and know of the gifted young members from those sects, yet we've never heard of a Ye among them," the flamboyantly dressed matron said sarcastically, her tone thick with mockery toward Ye Feng.

Ye Feng still stood tall and unmoving, without any expression on his face. It was mainly because his cultivation level had changed. Ever since he obtained the cultivation technique of the Divine Path Heavenly Edict from the Ancient Era, his perspective had greatly elevated.

Although the four from the Flora Sect were of high realms, with the white-bearded elder being a Fourth Stage practitioner in the Divine Path Realm, in Ye Feng's eyes, they were no challenge at all.

Yu Xianhe chuckled and looked at Ye Feng with a serious gaze, stating solemnly, "This Mr. Ye is none other than the Northern King Ye Feng, who has been the talk of the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts recently!"

"What did you say? He's the Northern King Ye Feng?" The first to react was Hua Youque. He abruptly turned to stare at Ye Feng, his face showing shock and a strong desire to fight.

It was apparent that this young talent from the Flora Sect was quite disgruntled and openly displayed his eagerness to challenge Ye Feng. Of course, the two had not met before, but Hua Youque's animosity stemmed from the recent widespread reputation of the Northern King Ye Feng in the Ancient Martial World.

Secondly, and more importantly, it was because of Yu Feiyu. The moment Ye Feng had walked in, Yu Feiyu had completely changed, showing boundless tenderness and affection. Hua Youque had been at the Valley of the Medicine God for two days, and not only had Yu Feiyu not spent time with him, she hadn't even given him a kind look. How could he not be angry?

After all, he was considered a genius in the Flora Sect and ranked within the top twenty among the young generation of the Nine Great Sects. Where did he fall short?

At this moment, the white-bearded elder from the Flora Sect slowly stood up and walked towards Ye Feng. Regardless of how the Sects of the Martial Arts World felt, the Northern Border King of Xuanyuan Nation was a king, and one had to observe at least the basic courtesies openly.

"So you are the Northern King Ye Feng. I've long heard of the Northern King's reputation, and seeing you today, it seems your fame is well deserved. At merely around twenty-five years old, to possess such bearing is truly impressive," the white-bearded elder remarked.

Ye Feng was about to return the courtesy since it didn't make sense to offend someone who was being polite. Just as he was about to bow, the heavily made-up lady scoffed, "What bearing? At twenty-five years old, he's merely at the peak cultivation of the Martial King Realm. Compared to our Flower Prince, he's far behind."

Ye Feng's expression darkened, but he refrained from lashing out, considering that this was the Valley of the Medicine God and he owed some respect to Yu Xianhe.

Yet Yu Xianhe just stood there, smiling, as if now he was the outsider watching the spectacle unfold.

The truth was, Yu Xianhe had urgently invited Ye Feng this time because the marriage pressure from the Flora Sect was too much, and he couldn't outright reject them. So he thought of using Ye Feng as a shield, and now, it seemed to be working quite well.

Ye Feng looked up at Yu Xianhe and seeing that he had no intention of intervening, thought to himself that this old man truly intended to sell him out completely. Without showing his displeasure, he said with a smile, "It seems you are discussing Miss Yu's marriage. As an outsider, I should not intrude. I will take my leave!"

Yu Feiyu immediately panicked upon hearing this, and so did Yu Xianhe. He quickly called out, "Ye Feng, wait a moment. You see, the matter concerning Feiyu does actually relate to you."

"Relates to me?" Ye Feng responded with widened eyes.

Hua Youque hastily asked, "Valley Master Yu, please explain clearly, how does Miss Feiyu's lifelong matter involve him? Could it be that they are a couple?"

"That is not the case," Yu Xianhe replied with a shake of his head and a smile.

"I didn't think it could be possible," Hua Youque said with a faint smile, his lips unconsciously curling upwards, exuding a certain charm.

```

Of course, if he were a woman, those enchanting eyes and pale complexion would surely make him an incomparable beauty. But, unfortunately, he was a man, which gave an indescribable sense of disgust to onlookers now.

Hua Youque continued, "Please, Valley Master Yu, don't be angry at what I'm about to say. Before I came here, I had already sent someone to investigate Miss Yu. Of course, it was a well-intentioned inquiry. All this time, Miss Yu has been staying at the Divine Doctor Sect in the imperial capital, healing and saving lives without ever having intimate contact with other men."

"The thing that touched my heart the most about Miss Yu is her selfless spirit in saving people. She has been in the capital for about three years now, right? The number of poor citizens she has helped is surely no less than a hundred, often without charging a fee. Moreover, when encountering someone truly in need, she even donates supplies to them.

This is truly the heart of a Bodhisattva, she is the goddess in my eyes!"

His words were so nauseating that not only Yu Feiyu herself, but even Ye Feng felt goosebumps just listening to them. However, it seemed that Hua Youque was blissfully unaware, still immersed in his own self-adulation.

Yu Feiyu could only roll her eyes speechlessly and occasionally shoot Ye Feng cold glares, to which Ye Feng could only choose to ignore.

Yu Xianhe also felt his old face flushing with embarrassment, but still chuckled and said, "Flower Prince is so attentive to my daughter, I am truly relieved and grateful. I also know that the Flower Prince is talented and stands out among the young generation of the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts."

"Moreover, the Flora Sect once saved the life of Feiyu's mother. Our Valley of the Medicine God owes your Flora Sect a great debt of gratitude. Now that the Flower Prince has come to ask for my daughter's hand in marriage, it would be unreasonable of me to refuse, both emotionally and rationally. It's just that…"

"Just what? Is there something troubling you, Valley Master Yu? Or are you suggesting that Miss Yu marrying me, Hua Youque, would be beneath her? Or perhaps, that I, Hua Youque, am not worthy of your Valley of the Medicine God's precious daughter?" Hua Youque pressed aggressively.

"No, no, Flower Prince, you misunderstand. Please let me finish. It's not that the Valley of the Medicine God is unappreciative of past kindness, but I am indeed in a difficult position," said Yu Xianhe, turning to look at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng felt a sudden jolt in his heart, thinking to himself that this old Yu Xianhe might be planning to sell him out again.

But now, Ye Feng also understood that the Valley of the Medicine God was not afraid of the Flora Sect. Facing such an aggressive stance, the reason why the Valley of the Medicine God couldn't retaliate was entirely because it owed the Flora Sect a huge favor from the past.

Moreover, Ye Feng knew that Yu Feiyu was a man who valued loyalty and righteousness, so even if he truly didn't want to marry his daughter to the Flora Sect, he would never outright refuse. With this realization, Ye Feng suddenly understood why Yu Xianhe had brought him here at this time.

The three elders from the Flora Sect turned their heads to look at Ye Feng, and said, "Could it be that Valley Master Yu doesn't want to marry his precious daughter off to our Flower Prince, because of Northern King Ye Feng?"

Seeing that the moment was ripe, Yu Xianhe heaved a sigh and nodded, "It's indeed embarrassing to say, but it's mostly my fault. About half a year ago, I set up a martial competition to find a husband for my daughter in the imperial capital."

Hearing this, Hua Youque immediately interrupted, "That's impossible. Half a year ago, I'd already sent someone to watch Miss Yu Feiyu, how come I never heard of this?"

Yu Feiyu felt a deep sense of disgust upon hearing this, thinking to herself, could this person be a pervert? To have been under surveillance since half a year ago, such a person was simply too terrifying.

But Yu Xianhe was not angry, merely smiling as he replied, "Given my daughter's request at that time, the martial competition for her hand was conducted secretly, not publicly announced, so it is normal for the Flower Prince to be unaware of it."

"It was conducted secretly? But how could a husband be selected through a secret competition?" inquired an elder from the Flora Sect.

Yu Xianhe continued with a smile, "As you know, our Valley of the Medicine God prides itself on our medical skills, so naturally, the most important criterion for our son-in-law would also be medical expertise. The marital competition wasn't based on martial arts but rather medical skills!"

"Medical skills were compared? How was that done?" Hua Youque promptly asked.

"Actually, my daughter and I were discussing this matter half a year ago but couldn't settle on an arrangement. Just at that time, an earth-shattering miasma outbreak occurred in Xuanyuan Nation, which you must all know of, right?"

"Of course, we know. The source was from the Fallen Dragon Valley."

"That's right. The miasma was extremely dangerous. Not to mention the Sects of Ancient Martial Arts, even our Valley of the Medicine God was at a loss. So, at that time, I felt that if someone could resolve this miasma and save the countless people of Xuanyuan Nation from this poison, then that person would be deemed successful in the marital competition.

My daughter agreed to this as well," he continued.

Hearing this, Ye Feng suddenly had an ominous feeling that he, the fish, had finally been caught on the hook.
