Guan Yue watched Fang Hanshan's actions and became more aware of the importance of collective strength. This was also something he needed to consider in the future.
Once everything seemed normal, Fang West happily jumped around. She took Guan Yue to the guest room in her estate and instructed the servants to treat Guan Yue well. Then, as if suddenly remembering something, she blushed and said goodbye to Guan Yue before hurriedly running off to find her father.
Guan Yue knew what she would tell her father, but he found it hard to accept the idea of marrying so soon. However, Fang West was indeed a good girl—innocent, lovely, straightforward, and without ulterior motives. Being with her felt effortless; there was no need to guess her thoughts as she was completely transparent and easy to get along with.
Moreover, her appearance was so pure and youthful, radiating vitality and energy. She resembled a clear spring, transparent and inviting, making anyone in the heat want to dive in and enjoy its coolness, cleanliness, and that imagined transparency.
Guan Yue self-deprecatingly thought that perhaps he had been away from women for too long, leading to such desires.
He felt particularly resentful towards the elders of the Fang Family. If possible in the future, he would teach them a lesson. But for now, he couldn't act because Fang West's father had just become Clan Leader, and the family couldn't be thrown into chaos.
From Fang Hanshan's earlier words, Direction East had returned, but why wasn't Direction East coming out to meet him?
That evening, while Guan Yue was practicing, Fang West came looking for him again. She said, "Tonight my father is inviting you for drinks. He is happy because with your help, he has finally become the clan leader. Plus, I have broken through to the Breaking Heaven realm, and my brother is fine now. Tomorrow our family will host a public banquet for three days. My father will be very busy, so he wants to invite you tonight while I accompany you. Hehe, what do you think?"
"Sounds good. Let's go now," Guan Yue said as he stood up. Fang West grabbed his hand and quickly led him outside. Her face was filled with excitement; she was blushing again. Today she was genuinely happy—not only because her father had become clan leader but also because her brother was safe and most importantly, her father had agreed to her marriage with Guan Yue! She was brimming with energy and happiness that she almost forgot her own surname.
The heart of a young girl is easily satisfied!
As Guan Yue entered Fang Hanshan's home, it was his first time seeing Fang Hanshan's wife—a plump middle-aged lady dressed in beautiful attire adorned with gold and silver jewelry that looked quite heavy. However, she smiled warmly at Guan Yue with satisfaction in her eyes.
Although Guan Yue was only in his teens, he was tall and strong, handsome and elegant with an air of nobility about him that naturally exuded authority.
No matter where or when, Guan Yue had developed a habit of sitting upright and walking confidently—neither servile nor arrogant—speaking naturally without unnecessary words. Thus, others perceived him as having an innate leadership quality!
At that moment, Guan Yue also noticed Direction East sitting beside Fang Hanshan. Upon seeing him enter, Direction East quickly pointed at his mouth to indicate he couldn't speak. Guan Yue nodded and smiled at him saying, "Alright then; we can chat and drink later. I'll let you off today."
The Fang family and Guan Yue sat together enjoying their meal merrily. During this time, Fang West's parents didn't ask Guan Yue any questions; they simply stated that the elders required him to marry Fang West. Therefore, they decided to hold the wedding next month to expedite matters without delaying Guan Yue's own affairs.
At this point, Guan Yue realized that Fang West's parents were sacrificing their daughter's happiness purely not to hinder his matters. They didn't inquire about Guan Yue's family situation because they knew if his answer put them in a difficult position, it would reflect poorly on them.
Regardless of the circumstances, Guan Yue had to marry Fang West so that he could leave safely. For Guan Yue's sake, he couldn't afford to worry about their daughter's situation anymore.
However, it seems that the daughter is now very willing to marry him, which is a blessing for the Fang Family.
Fang Hanshan had heard from Direction East that Guan Yue was a wanted criminal by the three Major Powers, but he owed a great debt of gratitude to the Fang Family. The Fang Family could not do anything to betray him. Therefore, the only option now was to hasten their marriage and then send Guan Yue away. This was Fang Hanshan's plan.
Guan Yue understood Fang Hanshan's intentions and was deeply moved. He solemnly said to Mr. and Mrs. Fang, "Esteemed elders, please allow me to speak. Since you both have agreed to marry Miss West to me, I will absolutely not let you down. I will ensure that Miss West lives without worries in the future, and I will do my utmost to contribute to your endeavors. My words are as true as heaven and earth."
Then Guan Yue took out a bottle of Spirit Void Liquid and a bottle of Five-Flavor True Water, handing them to Fang Hanshan with respect. "This is a small token of my appreciation for you both. Brother Dong can also take some; it will greatly aid his recovery."
Fang Hanshan did not possess the power of the Yellow Robe Sage and could not discern what was inside the bottles at first glance. He took the jade bottle, sniffed it, and immediately turned pale with shock. "How did my son-in-law obtain such a Treasure? This is an absolute treasure for our Dragon Python Celestial Domain."
Direction East, having heard that it would also benefit his recovery, curiously asked, "What is this, Guan Yue?"
Fang Hanshan quickly interjected, "Do not speak carelessly. Such Treasures should only be known by heaven, earth, you, and me. They must not be disclosed to others; otherwise, it will surely attract greed from others and bring disaster."
The three members of the Fang Family nodded repeatedly. Fang West slyly said to Guan Yue, "What is it? Can I have a little too?"
Guan Yue softly replied, "Of course."
Though his voice was quiet, Fang Hanshan, his wife, and Direction East all heard him clearly, and they laughed together. Now that their daughter had found the right person who even possessed such Treasures, what was there to fear about being wanted?
Now that he was officially his son-in-law, Fang Hanshan also wanted to learn the Invisibility Technique from Guan Yue. This skill was incredibly useful on the battlefield; even his granddaughter had mastered it—how could he not?
The family was very happy together.
During this process, Guan Yue also enjoyed the joy of family once again!
The next day at dawn, Direction East came bouncing over to find Guan Yue. As soon as he saw Guan Yue, he threw two punches at him and happily said, "Brother-in-law, you can't hit back! I know you and my sister have both broken through to the Sky-breaking Realm; I'm feeling down about it. I can only hit you twice to vent my frustration!"
Guan Yue smiled wryly and said, "What has you so excited? You don't seem unhappy at all!"
Direction East laughed heartily: "That Fat Elder from that family gave your Skybreaking Beneficial Pill to his son! Guess what? It cracked me up! Last night was a riot; that Fat Elder insisted on coming to settle scores with you, claiming you deliberately harmed his son. But your father and Second Elder managed to talk him down. His son ended up in a terrible state—he has completely lost his combat ability."
Seeing Direction East so pleased with himself made Guan Yue curious: "What? Do you have some grudge against that Fat Elder as well?"
"Direction East" said seriously, "That 'Fat Elder' is my uncle's strong support. Right now, he has no way out; the evidence is all there. Moreover, my father is on the verge of a breakthrough, which is why he has been appointed as the clan leader. This way, he can allow my uncle to focus on his breakthrough. If my uncle breaks through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm first, our family will be in big trouble. They will definitely push us down to the eighteenth level of hell! My uncle's influence within our clan is deeply rooted and difficult to uproot."
"Is there no power for us within the family?" Guan Yue asked.
Direction East smiled bitterly and replied, "Brother-in-law, you must not have spent time in a large family; you don't understand the intricate relationships involved. Once the clan leader takes power, all benefits within the family will tilt towards his Direct Line. The Direct Line becomes stronger and stronger, while those without shared resources—Relatives and Peripheral Relations—become weaker and weaker. When you realize this, you'll find that if you leave your Direct Line relatives, this family cannot stand in society at all. Instead, you will still be seeking help and support from the Direct Line members. Otherwise, your family will simply be irrelevant."
Isn't Father-in-law in this situation? Guan Yue immediately thought that he should help Father-in-law break through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm as soon as possible. This matter could not be delayed!
So he said to Direction East, "You should quickly find your father. I can help him break through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm in the shortest time possible. Please ask him to come to my room immediately; it’s safer here than there. However, you must do this quietly and avoid making too much noise."
"Then let my sister go; I won't be able to hold back from shouting," Direction East said with self-awareness. He had initially been excited to run off but immediately sat back down, knowing how important this matter was and that he must not mess it up due to carelessness.
Thus, Guan Yue hurriedly found Fang West, who was sleeping next door, and urged her to quickly find their father and say that Guan Yue was ill and needed him to come over to see if there was any way to treat him.
Fang West didn't ask any questions and immediately ran out. She only needed to execute Guan Yue's orders without questioning why. This shows that she completely trusted Guan Yue.
When Fang Hanshan rushed over in a hurry and saw that Guan Yue was fine, he was about to lose his temper when Guan Yue quickly pulled him into Sky Peak Tower. He also brought Direction East and Fang West inside.
Upon seeing the vast space of Sky Peak Tower, Fang Hanshan was astonished, while Direction East immediately began running around inside when he noticed that no one was around.
Guan Yue knew today was a celebration banquet for his old father-in-law, so without further ado, he took out Celestial Wine for Fang Hanshan to drink and then urged him to begin cultivating immediately.
