Chapter 363: 199: Marriage Alliance with the Saintess_3

Translator: 549690339

With this integration into his own territory, Lu Yuan naturally wouldn’t take any action against the Poison Sect and the Miao people anymore.

This was indeed the perfect way to put both sides at ease.

However…

The suddenness of their proposal caught him off guard and left him unable to react for a moment.

Although Lu Yuan once thought about capturing all the female heroines and wicked women in the Jianghu to start a harem for himself after becoming proficient in martial arts.

Among them, the Holy Woman of the Poison Sect was one of his targets.

But now that it has become a reality, it feels, well…

Quite tempting, actually.

He had seen Lan Cai’er before, and she was indeed beautiful. As the Holy Woman of the Miao people and an Inborn Grandmaster, her status and strength were not inferior, making her a fitting match for him.

Facing such a woman, it would be a lie to say that he wasn’t moved.

His heart skipped a beat as he looked at Lan Zhaoyun with a stiff expression and calmly asked, “Is Sect Leader Lan not joking?”

Lan Zhaoyun kowtowed and said, “The sinner knows that this request is somewhat abrupt and excessive. But this is truly the wish of my sect and my tribe. Without it, we would not feel at ease. General, I ask for your consent.”

Sect Leader Lan’s words were heartfelt.

However, his words only represented their so-called wishes for the entire sect and tribe, which was just a fabrication.

Even the idea of the marriage alliance was just a sudden inspiration for Lan Zhaoyun and proposed on a whim.

And the reason why he thought of it was simple: he was attracted to Lu Yuan’s strength and potential.

Lan Cai’er broke through Innate four years ago when she was only twenty-six, so the Holy Woman Grandmaster was only just thirty.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was only thirty-two.

The two were close in age and both Inborn Grandmasters, an excellent match of talent and beauty.

At the same time, Lu Yuan had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command and controlled six prefectures, making him incredibly powerful. Furthermore, he had the support of two Grandmasters and a True Person, giving him unfathomable influence and connections.

Lan Zhaoyun had been worried about finding a suitable match for his daughter.

After all, as a Holy Woman and a Grandmaster, very few people under the sky were worthy of his daughter’s hand.

And even if there were suitable candidates, due to various factors, it was impossible for them to form an alliance with the Poison Sect through marriage.

So, Lan Zhaoyun had given up hope for his daughter’s marriage and merely wanted to find a suitable young man within the sect to serve as a son-in-law and continue their incense offering.

But now, with the sudden change in the situation and the rapid decline of the Poison Sect, their original plans for his daughter’s marriage were indefinitely shelved.

However, upon meeting Lu Yuan today, whether it was for interests or personal strength, no other son-in-law would be more suitable.

If the Poison Sect and the Miao people could rely on him, they wouldn’t worry about their safety, let alone their revival.

Thus, after Lan Zhaoyun came up with this idea.

The more he thought about it, the more suitable it seemed, and the more brilliant it became.

By this time, he had already voiced the idea, treating it as a prerequisite for the Poison Sect’s surrender to ensure that Lu Yuan agreed.

As for the success of the matter…

Lan Zhaoyun had a lot of confidence.

After all, his daughter was talented, beautiful, and a Grandmaster. Add to that the entire Poison Sect and the Miao people as dowry gifts.

Could there be a better woman out there than her?

Even those princesses of dynasties probably couldn’t compare.

“This…”

Seeing Lan Zhaoyun’s resolute attitude, Lu Yuan hesitated. He then turned to look at Yan Wangqiu and Su Xuange, only to find them staring intently at him.

As their gazes met, they subtly encouraged him and nodded slightly.

It seemed that these two allies also approved of the marriage.

After all, marrying the Poison Sect would undoubtedly tie them to their war chariot, ensuring that their alliance moved forward together.

This would be a great boon for the entire coalition, giving them no reason to refuse.

Then he looked at Anqiu True Person.

But he saw Elder Daoist with a smile on his face, full of mischief in his eyes.

Well, forget about this old fellow.

With just this encounter, Lu Yuan confirmed the position of his allies. Feeling a little more at ease, he looked back to Lan Zhaoyun, stepped forward to help him up, and reluctantly said, “Sect Leader Lan, please stand up. I agree to the marriage alliance.”

Having agreed to the marriage, the old man would become his father-in-law.

Though people like them didn’t value familial affection and cared more about the hierarchy of power.

However, letting his father-in-law kneel down would be somewhat disgraceful.

“Thank you, General, thank you!”

Hearing Lu Yuan agree to the marriage alliance, Lan Zhaoyun couldn’t help but show his joy.

He knew that this time, the Poison Sect and the Miao people were finally safe.

With a wry smile, Lu Yuan may have gained a wife, but he didn’t forget his main goal. He said, “Now that I’ve agreed to the marriage, there should be no more problems with your sect’s surrender, should there?”

Lan Zhaoyun nodded repeatedly, “General, rest assured. Once I leave, you can send your troops to follow along with me and jointly take over Qianling County City.”

After the marriage alliance, Lan Zhaoyun didn’t care much about Qianling County and the soldiers there.

After all, what was a small county city and thirty thousand remnants worth in comparison?

Once his daughter and Lu Yuan were married and had a child,

Wouldn’t everything of his eventually become that of their grandchild?

By then, with this connection, wouldn’t it be easy for the Poison Sect and the Miao tribe to revive?

‘Once we return, I will tell my daughter about this and let her give birth to a child soon after the marriage. Lu Yuan hasn’t married yet and has no children, so if my daughter bears children, they would be the legitimate heirs and future crown princes who must inherit the family business.’

Thinking this way, Lan Zhaoyun saw a new world opening up before him.

As for whether his decision would be accepted by Lan Cai’er without any consultation with her,

As his daughter and the Holy Woman of the Poison Sect and the Miao people, she would naturally serve their interests when they needed her.

Moreover, such a good son-in-law wouldn’t disgrace their daughter.

Lan Zhaoyun believed that his daughter would agree. He trusted her.
