Never mind anyone else-even Song Yan was dumbstruck.
Shouldn't you discuss something this big with me first?
For some reason, an inexplicable trace of sorrow rose in Song Yan's heart.
In a demon kingdom, his life was not his own.
If the ruler of the Sea Kingdom truly agreed, he probably would not be able to escape.
He had struggled so hard to attain his current cultivation. Who could have imagined that a Mirage Dragon would capture him and bring him to the Sea Kingdom, leaving him like fish on the Demon Race's chopping block?
Now another complication had cropped up in the form of a marriage.
For a moment, his head felt as big as a bushel basket.
Song Yan hesitated, then said, "Well, Lingsi, I-"
He had meant to say that he was a dying man.
Who would have thought that the moment he began, Lingsi would take his arm?
"Song Yan, don't say anything. You saved me, and I want to be with you forever."
"What? Am I not good enough for you?"
Song Yan hurriedly waved his hand. "That's not what I meant. I-"
He wanted to say more, but noticed Lingsi wink at him.
He did not understand what she meant, so he could only hold his tongue for now.
Everyone in the hall was momentarily speechless.
Only after a long while did Ling Jia speak. "Sisi, isn't-isn't this a little sudden?"
The Trusted Aide beside him also urged, "Yes, Your Highness, have you really thought this through? He's a Human Race cultivator. How can you two-"
But Lingsi immediately said, "Why can't we? Father, Song Yan is very powerful. He can protect me forever."

The Trusted Aide seemed to want to say more, but with outsiders present, held his tongue for the moment.
