"Marriage?"

Chen Kongyin wasn't the only one who was shocked. Even Gai Yin had a look of disbelief on his face.

Gai Yin's hands were stopped by the soldier. He could only shake his head continuously and explain to Chen Beigui, "City Lord, Young City Lord and I have nothing to do with each other. I swear to the heavens,i only made some deals with her. As for the marriage,city Lord, please think twice."

Chen Beigui, who had just calmed down, was once again angered by Gai Yin's roar. He slammed the table. He pointed at Gai Yin and said coldly, "You piece of trash. Do you really think I want you to be my son-in-law? Today's matter has already spread in Burning Sword City. I believe in your innocence, but will the tens of thousands of people in the Burning Sword City believe it? And will Young City Lord from the Dragon Elephant City next door believe it? You piece of trash has messed up all my plans. And you still dare to reject the marriage of my Chen family?"

Gai Yin heard it clearly. Chen Beigui mentioned Young City Lord from Dragon Elephant City and Dragon Elephant City.

Dragon Elephant City was very close to Burning Sword City, and it was a neighboring city-state. The strength of the Dragon Elephant City was slightly stronger than the Burning Sword City, and Young City Lord from the Dragon Elephant City was a cultivation genius. Naturally, the strength of the Dragon Elephant City was a level higher than the Burning Sword City.

Back then, when Chen Beigui visited Dragon Elephant City, he brought Chen Kongyin along. He accidentally noticed that Young City Lord of Dragon Elephant City was in love with Chen Kongyin, and that was why he wanted to matchmake his daughter and Young City Lord of Dragon Elephant City. However, at that time, Chen Beigui felt that there was no reason for a girl to take the initiative to get married, so he didn't mention this matter.

A few days ago, the Dragon Elephant City's City Lord,wan Chang, had sent a letter to ask if he was willing to betroth Chen Kongyin to his son,wan Baoyu. Chen Beigui was overjoyed, and just as he was about to reply, he did not expect such a thing to happen.

The news had probably already spread to Dragon Elephant City. Chen Beigui was really angry. As long as he married into Dragon Elephant City, his position as the mayor would be further consolidated. The alliance between Luo family and Wu family, one of the four big families of Burning Sword City, would be easily resolved.

But now, the marriage alliance with the Dragon Elephant City had been ruined by Gai Yin. Chen Beigui thought about it and decided that he couldn't just admit defeat. Although Luo family and Wu family were pressing him, he still had to fight back. Luckily, Gai Yin was still the young master of Gai family. Chen Beigui could only ask for a second chance. He wanted to marry the Gai family and fight the Luo family and Wu family together.

What Gai Yin said just now was obviously to reject him. This made Chen Beigui extremely angry. His face turned ashen, and he gritted his teeth with hatred. In his heart, why did this useless Gai Yin come out at the most critical moment to mess up his plan?

"It's decided then. The marriage between the Chen family and the Gai family will be decided. I will go and find Gai Bingtian and choose a day to get married!" Chen Beigui sighed with grief. This was truly a helpless move. Chen Kongyin's reputation had been ruined. Dragon Elephant City would never continue to choose a marriage alliance. Dragon Elephant City would not choose a marriage alliance. He was still an isolated city lord, and the Luo family and Wu family were very powerful. They had been coveting his position as the city lord for a long time.

In order to protect his position as the city lord, he could only choose to work with the other two families. The son of the Zheng family's patriarch was a woman, and he had no way to take care of her. Only the Gai family's patriarch had two sons. The eldest son was not bad, but he was already married, and only his second son, Gai Yin, was single. This was his only choice.

Furthermore, now that the news about his daughter and Gai Yin had spread, Gai Yin was no different.

After saying that, Chen Beigui waved his sleeve and stood up. He motioned for the soldier to let Gai Yin go, and then he left.

Gai Yin had worked in Zheng family for two years and had heard many rumors. He knew that Luo family and Wu family had joined hands to force Chen Beigui to give up his position as the City Lord. Only Zheng family and Gai family remained neutral. The reason Chen Beigui chose to marry today was because he knew that there was no hope for him to marry into Dragon Elephant City. Gai family was his worst plan.

Gai Yin found it ridiculous. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the second young master of the Gai family, Chen Beigui would have killed him today. Now, he had become Chen Beigui's chess piece and was responsible for pulling the Chen family and the Gai family onto the same boat.

Chen Kongyin naturally understood her father's decision. She glanced at Gai Yin and saw that he didn't have any intention to speak. She could only take the initiative to ask, "Do you understand what my father means?"

Gai Yin smiled. "Your father is obviously very helpless. The Luo family and Wu family's coercion has made him feel powerless. Otherwise, why would he betroth you to a trash like me?"

Chen Kongyin felt that Gai Yin had changed too much. Back in the School of Literature, although Gai Yin was also very smart, that was the intelligence of literature. Now, Gai Yin's intelligence was reflected in his ability to see through things and even know how to plan strategies.

"Gai Yin, if you can help my father protect the position of City Lord,i am willing to marry you!" Chen Kongyin did not think too much about it. Just based on the fact that Gai Yin had perfectly unlocked the first shackle in his body and the fact that he had just modified the Profound Restriction Palm Seal for her, Chen Kongyin felt that there was a big secret hidden in Gai Yin's body.

Chen Kongyin had read countless books and had read many similar examples in some of the strange books. It was recorded that one of the four great geniuses of the Forbidden Realm, the Formation Great Master Yih Xingchen, was also a good-for-nothing when he was young. He was spurned and insulted by countless people, and when Yih Xingchen was in his twenties, he had shocked the world with a single feat. It was as if his cultivation had been assisted by a god. The shackles in his body had been perfectly unlocked, and he had become one of the four great geniuses of the Central Plains.

Today, Gai Yin and Yih Xingchen's experiences were very similar. They used to be trash in cultivation, but now, they had perfectly unlocked the first shackle in their bodies. This shocked Chen Kongyin. In her heart, she had already regarded Gai Yin and Yih Xingchen as her own kind.

Gai Yin didn't know what Chen Kongyin was thinking. If he knew, Gai Yin would only smile. Because 3,300 years ago, in his previous life, Yih Xingchen still called Gai Yin Big Brother in his previous life.

Gai Yin stared at Chen Kongyin and asked, "You trust me so much?"

Chen Kongyin nodded without hesitation, "The fact that you were able to perfectly unlock the first shackle in your body proves that you are not a trash in cultivation, but a genius. So I believe you. "

Gai Yin thought for a moment and nodded. He agreed to Chen Kongyin's request and said, "I promise you. However,i did not promise you because of the marriage. It was because you were the only person who could stand in front of me when I was trash. In front of the Compendium Pavilion, you helped me block the Luo Clan. Then, in the Burning Sword City... I will help you block the Luo family and the Wu family. "

Gai Yin didn't want to owe anyone any favors. During these two years of hard work, he deeply understood that he could only rely on himself for everything, even if he was once the young master of the Gai family. However, he could still become a servant overnight. If his fist was big enough... If his strength was strong enough, he would still be the young master of the Gai family... Even the current Gai family would revolve around him.

Two years of humanity had made Gai Yin's heart numb. Therefore, when Gai Yin understood that he was born to fight and respect, his heart had become limitless. Since he had the ability to become stronger, he would never become a weakling!

Chen Kongyin was the only person who stood up for Gai Yin in these two years. It was as if Gai Yin had experienced countless storms and almost fell to the ground under the rain. Chen Kongyin held an umbrella and stood beside him.

Gai Yin could not express his gratitude. Gai Yin did not understand. He felt that he could only repay Chen Kongyin a thousand times more.
