The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1198 - 1197: Picking a Date for the Wedding

Tang Rao guessed it right again.The old man looked at Tang Rao with newfound respect.

"It seems you're more impressive than I thought."

A glass bridge appeared in front of them as the old man spoke to Tang Rao.

"Do you dare to go up there?"

The old man was testing Tang Rao's courage. Just a glass bridge, there's no reason Tang Rao wouldn't dare to go.

"Of course, I dare. Are you going up with me, or should we go separately? Do I go first and you follow?"

Tang Rao had already walked up to the glass bridge, just a step away from stepping on it.

"You go first."

The old man's words to Tang Rao were non-negotiable.

Tang Rao was bold, so without saying a word, he stepped onto the glass bridge.

"Old man, you've got a lot of mysteries between these cliffs, Longevity Array, Separation Array, just a few of the arrays I recognize are down here under the cliff, you've put a lot of effort into this."

Tang Rao deliberately picked some not-so-easy-to-recognize array names to tell the old man. The old man's mind started ringing alarms, and he dared not take this young man lightly anymore.

To prevent the world from discovering his arrays, he had built them in such secret places, yet who knew Tang Rao had such sharp eyes to recognize each one of them.

"Young man, can you tell me who taught you about arrays?"

If he remembers correctly, Tang Rao came from elsewhere, ascended from the lower realm, what good things or arrays could the lower realm possibly have?

The old man's long-held beliefs over tens of thousands of years were shattered today in front of Tang Rao.

He no longer looked down on the lower realm; instead, he wanted to explore some unknown arrays from Tang Rao.

"I stumbled upon these arrays by chance, then I comprehended them and learned. Isn't it the same for you all?"

These words became a weapon of great destruction to the old man.

Suddenly acquiring arrays, suddenly comprehending, suddenly this and that; how much time and effort had the old man spent, how many hidden experts among mountains and rivers had he visited, plus years of personal cultivation, only he knew the effort it took. Yet everything Tang Rao did seemed so effortless, hearing Tang Rao say this made the old man feel quite unbalanced.

"Of course not, you kid are a genius, every lucky encounter happens to you, I truly admire it, admire it."

The old man walked behind Tang Rao. As Tang Rao continued to look at the arrays hidden under the cliff, the old man no longer stopped him because Tang Rao's continuous explanations further elevated the old man's comprehension.

Moving up a level in ten thousand years meant that within a few words from Tang Rao, the old man's cultivation advanced by ten thousand years.

"Old man, we can easily discuss arrays and formations. When Qin Qing isn't around, I dare to speak openly to you; between me and Qin Qing, it really is clean. I've got elders and juniors, plus several wives. If Qin Qing really gets with me, she'd have a hard time. You've got no idea, the tigresses at home, they'd scare even you."

Tang Rao exaggeratedly introduced all the women at home to the old man hoping he'd retreat and not marry his daughter to Tang Rao. But Tang Rao might have miscalculated because when he described having several wives at home, the old man's eyes lit up.

"Tang Rao, my young friend, I've always known Qin Qing isn't a casual girl. Whether she's been with other men, as her father, I can see it clearly. Qin Qing's virginity mole is still there. What you're worried about is nothing; as a man, I can responsibly assure you, our Qin Qing is pure, so feel free to date her. You already have so many wives; one more Qin Qing won't matter. Our Qin Family is also among the top ranks in the family."

Is this how the old man evaluated and promoted his daughter?

Qin Qing might have a fake father; this father indeed causes trouble for both Qin Qing and Tang Rao.

But one sentence from the old man touched Tang Rao's heart; he said Qin Qing was clean and never fooled around outside. This father, truly a man, understood Tang Rao's thoughts best.

He even started to turn into a fan, getting a better impression of Qin Qing.

"Old man, how about we discuss these things after we spar over arrays?"

Tang Rao was embarrassed; he couldn't say, since your daughter's a virgin, I won't mind her, and I want to date her, right?

It needs to be a bit subtle; things need to be done step by step, just like walking, and talk about romantic stuff after going back.

"Tang Rao, my young friend, as long as you haven't outright refused, as her father, I'm relieved. How about this, all the classic arrays are below the cliff, there's actually nothing on the other side, we can go back. I admit, in array mastery, I'm far less skilled than you. My abilities are still beneath yours."

For the first time in years, the old man admitted defeat, and it was in front of a younger generation.

But he didn't regret it and felt no disgrace or embarrassment in admitting defeat.

"Old man, please don't be modest. I know you're a renowned Array Master in the Divine Realm. Your reputation is more important than life itself. Admitting defeat in front of me like this, wouldn't that hurt your reputation if it got out?"

Tang Rao was worried about the old man's future.

"What nonsense are you saying? When we get back, you're going to be our Qin Family's son-in-law. Once Qin Qing is with you, our Qin Family will branch out and grow; you'll be the greatest Array Master of the Qin Family. This is surpassing the master; outsiders will envy us. What's not to be proud of?"

The old man was straightforward; his few words soothed Tang Rao's worries.

Since there's nothing on the other side of the cliff, Tang Rao didn't push it and walked back off the glass bridge.

Qin Qing was waiting outside the array room for Tang Rao and the old man to come out. She thought she'd have to wait a long time, but in no time, Tang Rao walked out first.

"Tang Rao, why did you come out so fast?"

Qin Qing was somewhat anxious; she didn't want it to be because her father was offended and thus chased Tang Rao out.

"Qin Qing, this son-in-law of mine is much more reliable than the previous one you brought back. Your dad is very satisfied; why don't you find some time to get married? I, as your father, fully support your marriage."

The old man came out all smiles and it was clear to everyone he was in high spirits.

"Dad, what do you mean marriage, you mean me and Tang Rao?"

Qin Qing was taken aback.

From beginning to end, it had always been Qin Qing scheming against Tang Rao; Tang Rao didn't have any feelings for Qin Qing. This sudden mention of marriage, why did she feel like being pushed onto the stage against her will?

"Dad, are you joking?"
