The Ning Family's Crisis, Yang Yunhai's Proposal, an Alliance of the Strong

Yang Yunhai looked calmly at Ning Yan, his gaze lingering on her body. A slight, disdainful smile played on his lips.

"You should know your own strength; you can't possibly defeat me."

Ning Yan asked with a serious expression, "So, what are you trying to say?"

Yang Yunhai stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at her, and said calmly:

"Your Ning Family has no foundation and is weak. Why not form an alliance with my Yang Family? If we join forces, we can control not only Pingyang City, but Five Great Cities together."

"Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Alliance?

Ning Yan sneered, "Does Yang Family Head think I'm a three-year-old?"

Yang Yunhai's alliance was definitely just an excuse. She knew the character of these kinds of people very well; they valued stability and wouldn't easily take risks.

Therefore, even if she only has the combat power of the Early Guiyuan Stage, Yang Yunhai will not directly engage in a major battle with her.

Although he knew he was doomed to lose, anything could happen during the battle, and Yang Yunhai was worried that she might hurt him.

Of course, it's also possible that he was afraid of accidentally killing her, because then he wouldn't be able to get what he had.

The greed in Yang Yunhai's eyes was all too obvious.

Yang Yunhai calmly said, "I am serious. Great Elder Ning is so beautiful and powerful. Why not marry into my Yang Family and become the Mistress? Not only will the Ning Family be preserved, but they will also receive the support and guidance of my Yang Family."

This statement is partly true and partly false.

If the Ning Family is truly willing to marry into the Yang Family, Yang Yunhai wouldn't mind training Ning Family.

Because Ning Yan's aptitude is indeed excellent, and she also possesses that terrifying Cultivation Method, once she enters the Yang Family, he can easily obtain that Cultivation Method.

Moreover, Ning Family was exceptionally beautiful, and even he, as a man, was quite tempted by her. Therefore, Ning Yan was absolutely qualified to become the Yang Family Head.

Of course, all of this was done at Ning Yan's own request.

If she was unwilling, Yang Yunhai's solution was simple: destroy the Ning Family, abolish Ning Yan's Cultivation Level, obtain the Cultivation Method, play with her for a while, and then kill her.

Beautiful women are desirable, but not essential for Yang Yunhai.

It wasn't even as alluring as the Cultivation Method Ning Yan possessed.

But for Yang Yunhai, an adult, if he could, he would naturally want them all.

Upon hearing Yang Yunhai's words, Ning Yan's eyes flashed with a chilling coldness. Marrying someone like Yang Yunhai was absolutely out of the question.

Yang Yunhai looked at Ning Yan with confidence and said with a faint smile, "How about it?"

He is stronger than Ning Yan, so he now has the upper hand. Even if Ning Yan refuses, he can kill Ning Yan directly.

However, he cannot do that.

Yang Yunhai's strength was superior to Ning Yan's, and it would have been very easy for him to kill Ning Yan. The reason he didn't do so was because he knew that Ning Yan was a strong-willed person who wouldn't be easily subdued.

He wanted to obtain Ning Yan's Cultivation Method, but if he held back, he might be injured by Ning Yan.

If he used his full strength directly, he might kill Ning Yan, and then he wouldn't be able to obtain the Cultivation Method.

There's no need to take risks if the problem can be solved in a more stable way.

Otherwise, Yang Yunhai would have killed Ning Yan long ago.

Yang Yunhai continued, "Elder Ning Yan should seriously consider this. If you become the Yang Family Head, your status and position will be far beyond what you can achieve in the Ning Family."

"Moreover, you can use the Yang Family's resources to help your Ning Family. It's a win-win situation, and your own cultivation resources will definitely be more than when you were in the Ning Family."

"Furthermore, I am also at the Late Integration Stage, which is more than enough for you."

It must be said that if Yang Yunhai is sincere in this regard, then the conditions he has offered are already quite good.

Marrying him would not only help the Ning Family, but would also bring great benefits to her.

The Second Elder immediately looked at Ning Yan, his expression showing a slight hint of interest.

The Ning Family has been having a really tough time lately. If they could Ning Family, it would be an incredible stroke of luck.

The only concern is whether Yang Yunhai is sincere.

And... is Ning Yan willing?

"The Ning Family is in a terrible situation right now, and I feel that Ning Yan marrying the Yang Family Head is the best choice for her."

"That's right. If they continue to resist stubbornly, the entire Ning Family might be wiped out."

"It's a pity that my pure and innocent goddess is about to be defiled by Yang Yunhai."

Those secretly observing were abuzz with discussion, all believing that Ning Yan's only option was to marry Yang Yunhai; any other choice could lead to the destruction of the Ning Family.

Yang Yunhai was right. His cultivation was at the late stage Cultivation Level the Late Integration Stage, and he would most likely break through to the Guiyuan Realm in the Future. It wouldn't be a bad thing for Ning Yan to marry such a person.

Now.

Ning Yan sneered, "Yang Family Head, you should give up on that idea. You... you're not qualified to be my man."

Ning Yan's words were utterly contemptuous, and her gaze towards Yang Yunhai was filled with disdain.

Yang Yunhai's expression froze, and his face instantly darkened.

For a man, the greatest insult is to be looked down upon by a woman; this denial struck Yang Yunhai's pride head-on.

Many people around also looked surprised and uncertain.

"My goodness! Ning Yan actually refused so decisively. Isn't she afraid of the Ning Family being wiped out?"

"That's too impulsive and reckless. She's the Great Elder of the Ning Family. Saying such things affects not just her, but the entire Ning Family."

"It's over, it's over. Look at Yang Yunhai's expression, I reckon the Ning Family is doomed."

Many people couldn't help but show expressions of regret.

If you don't know when to back down at a time like this, the only outcome will be the extermination of your entire family.

The Second Elder's expression also changed drastically. He anxiously exclaimed, "Great Elder!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an incredibly terrifying aura erupted, its oppressive force enveloping Pingyang City. Many people's faces turned red, as if they were suffocating.

Yang Yunhai floated slowly in mid-air, an incomparably powerful force emanating from his body, his expression stern and cold.

"Very good, Ning Yan."

"Since you're so stubborn, don't blame me."

Ning Yan's public denial of him infuriated Yang Yunhai.

He suddenly raised his hand and waved it, causing the void to distort, Scorching Flames instantly Mi Man out.

Fire attribute!

Ning Yan's expression changed; Yang Yunhai was actually cultivating Fire attribute Cultivation Method.

In the Five Elements Great Dao, Fire overcomes Metal.

Although Yang Yunhai's Cultivation Method technique was not as high-grade as hers, the difference in their Cultivation Level was significant. Already at a disadvantage, their situation became even more precarious.

Yang Yunhai raised his hand and waved it, and a heat wave instantly rushed towards Ning Yan.

The terrifying heat caused many houses to burst into flames, and even the void itself rippled slightly as it could not withstand the heat.

"What a terrifying Cultivation Method! Ning Yan is doomed!"

Upon witnessing this scene, some people gasped, their eyes filled with fear.

Ning Yan would have a hard time blocking this attack, and even if she did, she would be seriously injured.
