Volume 1 Chapter 11 The Fragrance of a Single Incense Can Fill an Entire Room Selection of Son-in-law Ceremony 3

  The wind by my ear, blowing with a whoosh. It turns out that the birds in the sky fly like this! A faint smile. If I were to die like this, it would be a beautiful thing too! Looking down at the bustling crowd, they suddenly let out a shout of surprise.

  The iron ball in my hand was gently tossed into the crowd, and I fell into a thick and sturdy chest. The man's rough hands grasped my waist, and I landed steadily on my back, before he anxiously asked, "Miss! Are you okay?"

  It's Guī Yuè! I opened my eyes and stared at him steadily. For such a long time, although we were nominally master and servant, we rarely had this kind of contact. Yet, it turned out that Guī Yuè's chest was already so broad?

  "Ha! How are you, ha! Luckily Ghost Month is clever, ha! Otherwise, you'd be dead by now, ha! Good lightness skill can't save you from falling headfirst, ha!" Tianji Old Man jumped and jumped until he reached my side.

  I glared at him and didn't want to bother with him.

  The others then let out a collective sigh of relief. Seeing me get down, they swarmed up and surrounded me in a circle, wanting to take a closer look at my face!

  I covered my face with my sleeve and smiled slightly, "Master! This time the embroidery ball, how many people can come out? Can those whose arms are broken come out?"

  The old man was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, he exclaimed loudly, "Ahh! I've been deceived! I've been deceived! Disciple! How could you treat your master like this!"

  "What! What are you talking about?! Don't the embroidered balls I threw out earlier count?! The embroidered ball I struggled to snatch, doesn't it count?!"

  I smiled calmly, "The embroidered ball snatched from the hands of the crippled and maimed could have been overlooked! However, I'm not throwing an embroidered ball to find a spouse, but rather, I'm holding a martial arts tournament to find one! As a warrior, you should know to help the weak and vanquish the strong. If you had given up on snatching the ball, I might have given you an opportunity. But instead, you chose to snatch the embroidered ball from the disabled, thinking it was a lucky charm! In that case, all I can say is sorry! The four winners of the martial arts tournament are: Jiang Guo, Long Nu Ya, Long Yun Ya, Long Lie Ya, and Gui Yue!"

  At this point, Kiyotsugu's whole body trembled. He stared at me in disbelief and said in a low voice, "Miss... I..."

  I shook my head at him, he understood and stopped talking, but just stared at me blankly.

  "I have an opinion!" A slender young man squeezed out from the crowd, smiling calmly with the last red embroidered ball in his hand. "The one who got the last embroidered ball is me! So, the one who should be eliminated is me!"

  I raised an eyebrow. I gazed at him calmly, and saw the young man standing in the crowd, not tall, nor handsome, but somehow endearing! I curled my lips and said calmly, "If it weren't for him, this martial arts competition to win a bride would have no bride, who do you think should get her?"

  The old man Tianji crossed his arms and burst out laughing, "That's right! Without the bride, what's the point of all this! The wedding has turned into a funeral, the joyous occasion has turned into a mournful one! It's all over!"

  The young man's eyes narrowed, "So you also agree that Katsuragi won? And what about this?" He pulled out a bright red veil from his pocket and brought it to his lips for a light sniff. "This veil is filled with the scent of jasmine! You shouldn't be unfamiliar with it, miss!" He smiled calmly. The red veil fluttered in the wind, spreading the fragrance of jasmine.

  It was just when I pulled down the veil that it floated down!

  Just as he was about to speak, Yan Yan burst through the crowd and shouted loudly, "Alright, alright! Since the young master is willing, let's just consider this time's outing to be five people!"

  The young man's lips curled up slightly, revealing a charming arc, and he slowly walked in front of me, half-kneeling down, holding out the red scarf in his hands, "Miss! This is yours!"

  I absent-mindedly took it. Held it tightly! But was caught by him, and he put it to his lips for a light kiss!

  I was taken aback, just thinking of pulling my hand back, but he had already let go, staring at me blankly, and said in a low voice, "Miss, your beauty, I will never dare to forget! However, Miss doesn't want me to win, so I can only leave! This embroidered ball was thrown by Miss to me, let me keep it as a memento. I gave up the competition, not because I didn't want to marry Miss, but because I didn't want Miss to be in trouble! Farewell!" After he finished speaking, he stood up, holding the embroidered ball in his hands, and left with a flourish!

  I furrowed my brow, what kind of person is this! Why would he do such a thing! The young man pushed through the crowd and got into a green curtained carriage. The carriage stopped at the side, and as soon as he got in, he lifted up the curtain and looked over here! It seems that he won't rest until he sees my final destination!

  "Alright, alright! So now there are only four people left! Hanmei! Originally, 30 people were supposed to be eliminated, and I had prepared a lot of programs for the elimination round! But with this result, there are only four people left, and one elimination round would be enough! You've messed up my entire plan! Flame Emperor, what do you think we should do now?!" Tianji Old Man exclaimed loudly.

  The flames gazed at me coldly for a moment before saying, "It's not easy to design, how can it be so simple! Since there's no way to eliminate, let's participate together!"

  The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and I gritted my teeth, saying, "Yes sir! Flame Emperor!"

  "Junior sister!" Long Yunyang shouted, "Yan Flame! Can't you see she's bleeding? Hurry up and end this quickly!"

  Yan Yan slightly lowered her head, and the corners of her lips twitched almost imperceptibly before she spoke after a long pause, "The wound has reopened? I thought that last move was Miss Ye's way of putting on a show! Now that this has happened, your subordinates will definitely take action, and then you'll definitely choose Gui Yue as your husband. You're just humoring me."

  I curled up the corner of my lips and said calmly, "It's a matter of life and death, how could I do such a thing!" This person is willful, but clever! He actually saw through my intention so easily!

  He smiled calmly, "Very well! Let me see if you're doing it on purpose! Today's selection of son-in-law cannot be stopped! If Miss Ye wants to faint, then let the old man Tianji designate for her! If I find out that Miss Ye has a crush on Guiyue, then I'll have no choice but to ask the two of you to die together! Miss Ye, take care!"
