Marvelous Mecha

Chapter 870: Son-in-law?


Wow! Snowflakes with six untainted petals are floating down from the sky; this is so beautiful.

In the hearts of many, a sense of magic was undeniable, and the comfort was extreme, although it only lasted for a fleeting half minute. Everyone could truly feel the chill of the snowflakes touching their skin, as if this Ancient Martial Arts marriage had been painted with a faint hue of romance.

There's an ancient saying that a girl in love has negative IQ, and this adage holds weight and reason. Nangong Qi hadn't thought it through at all. The gift from thin air was clearly something Feng Yi had come up with spur of the moment, and yet the girl not only accepted it gladly but also found it incredibly romantic, making everything seem all the more natural.

In her delight, Nangong Qi couldn't help but grow more curious, and with a tinge of grievance, she said, "Li Xiang, you could have broken my eye technique from the start, couldn't you?"

"Well... that was just luck, just luck," Feng Yi said with an embarrassed but polite smile.

"Still trying to deceive me, you're asking for a beating," Nangong Qi said, her emotions written all over her face. Although she spoke thus, her fists landed lightly on Feng Yi's chest, so light that if she had emitted a few 'whimpers', it would have been perfect—but of course, that was just a silly narrative Feng Yi had imagined.

However, Nangong Qi's words had thoroughly shocked a group of elders standing nearby...

Flashing Golden Eye, broken? How... How could that be? That was the ultimate secret of the Nangong Family. No one could escape the prison of that supreme eye technique, which sealed them in an Alternate Space, especially evident when used for interrogation, and even more so with the home court advantage of the Golden Bodhi. This was neither scientific nor magical.

The Nangong Family head looked at Feng Yi with a sharp and odd gaze, saying in a deep voice, "From what you have said, could it be that you have broken Qi'er's eye technique?"

"It was a fluke, whether it qualifies as breaking the technique or not. If escaping from the mental seal is considered breaking it, then I suppose it is," Feng Yi responded offhandedly.

Hearing this, the family head's dim eyes grew deeper... In fact, breaking the technique was not impossible. It was said that only by reaching a state of neither life, death, self, nor other, one could break free, and another way was to have mental acuity stronger than that of the caster. The reason people feared the Nangong Family was precisely because of the dreadful Flashing Golden Eye.

In other words, escaping from the eye technique was not merely a matter of combat strength but also a reflection of one's life realm and the level of one's soul.

And this man, not only had he completely broken the Flashing Golden Eye, he could easily condense the world of mental illusions into inches within his palm. For a moment, even the head of the Nangong Family couldn't comprehend the height of such a state since he hadn't reached that level himself.

Anyone who had achieved such a profound understanding was likely not young, and no matter how outstanding this person's abilities or how much Qi'er liked him, he couldn't marry Qi'er off.

This was preposterous, simply preposterous! After hesitating for a long moment, the family head finally said, "The Nangong Family has always prided itself on tradition. We cannot be so careless as to bestow Qi'er to a son-in-law with an unknown background. Please remove your mask before we discuss this further."

Who among the onlookers didn't want to see the true face of the man in black? As soon as the family head spoke, everyone's eager gazes focused on him.

"Grandfather... let's not," Nangong Qi, knowing Feng Yi's special identity, immediately resorted to acting coquettishly.

But her normally unstoppable coquettishness failed this time, as the family head said in a low voice, "Qi'er, do not interject; this concerns the family's honor and your future happiness."

The family head was right. Who would marry off their daughter without knowing what the son-in-law looks like? Feng Yi was straightforward, "Okay, then." As he spoke, he lifted his hand and removed the black mask...

At that moment, many of the girls around even covered their eyes, afraid to look any longer. If he was not pleasing to the eye or seemed too old, that would have been incredibly awkward.

Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, everyone finally beheld his true face...

After a few seconds of silence, a series of low whispers spread throughout the venue as people began to murmur and speculate...

Who would have thought it would be such a handsome face, elegant amidst its gallantry, and with a hint of grace within its handsomeness, and his behavior, neither humble nor arrogant, was in sharp contrast to the image everyone had formed in their minds.

What was key was that he had an endearing character. Despite his profound and mystical strength, he preferred amusing children—but everyone understood that he was actually pointing out Nangong Ziyu's shortcomings.

Furthermore, he would subtly leave his opponents with ample leeway in battle, like when he had pushed that guy who came to challenge him—only when his strength was threatened did he cleanly knock down Fali. This showed that he was not only tactful and wise but also considered others' perspectives, and with high EQ and a broad mind, he didn't sweat the small stuff, which made him likable, didn't it?

Now, even Hong Fei seemed to pale in comparison, despite Hong Fei also being modest and polite. There was just something lacking as if his unique charm was something anyone would want to get closer to. Even Nangong Ziyu, who had been non-stop complaining, now found the black-clothed 'big brother' not so detestable.

Indeed, in an era where looks are paramount, justice seems inclined. His refined and unobtrusive demeanor had immediately sparked a lot of discussion among the girls present...

Feng Yi thought he hadn't really considered all that at the time.

However, as the whispering continued, a new question arose in people's minds. They felt like they had seen him somewhere before, as if they had met him once, yet they couldn't recall when or where, and suddenly they were at a loss.
