Ling Feng said with some surprise, "But isn't this a bit too rushed? Are you sure it's today?"

Liu Tingyu said with a smile, "Of course it's today. This morning Aunt Wan specifically called to tell me that my dad has time at noon and wants you to meet him!"

Ling Feng took his hand away and patted his forehead, saying, "Why didn't you say so earlier? I should at least prepare a bit better!"

Liu Tingyu laughed and said, "Prepare for what? You're already great as you are! I believe in my judgment, and the man Liu Tingyu likes is definitely going to please my dad!"

Then, leaning on Ling Feng's shoulder, Liu Tingyu said, "Ling Feng, my dad can be quite strict, and I'm not sure if he truly agrees with us being together, so… if he says anything too harsh, can you let it go for my sake?"

Ling Feng, stroking Liu Tingyu's hair, said softly, "Don't worry. If your father didn't agree, things between us wouldn't have gone so smoothly! Let's go, I'll ask for leave, and we'll meet my future father-in-law!"

"Stop it, I didn't say I'd marry you yet!"

"Not marrying me? You've already fallen into my hands, there's no way out for you now!"

…

Within the Dragon Group, Xia Wan'er stood in front of the Dragon King, "I've already called Ting Yu, and today is the day to meet that young man!"

The Dragon King pondered for a moment and looked at Xia Wan'er, "Wan'er, you've met that young man too, how do you feel about him?"

"Unfathomable!" Xia Wan'er said gravely, "Although I only met him once at the airport, I could feel the frightening undercurrent beneath his gentle exterior!"

"So, I've been wondering, is it really suitable for him to be with Ting Yu?" the Dragon King took a deep breath, "I worry that if Ting Yu gets hurt because of him…"

Seeing this man who stood at the pinnacle of Huaxia, no trace of the Dragon King's domineering aura was present, only a father's worry and anxiety!

"Cheng Feng, if you try to separate the two of them, that would be the greatest harm to Ting Yu," Xia Wan'er said softly, "Ting Yu might appear fragile, but her heart is incredibly strong. If she has found a man who can provide her with warmth, no matter what his past is, as long as he is good to Ting Yu, shouldn't we support them?"

The Dragon King sighed and said, "That's easier said than done, but..."

After hesitating repeatedly, the Dragon King picked up a document from the table and handed it to Xia Wan'er, "I've conducted a covert investigation on Ling Feng. Recently, I found that he resembles someone!"

"Who?" Xia Wan'er asked, taking the document.

The Dragon King took a deep breath and said coldly, "The Heaven's Gate Death God, Blood-Handed Asura!"

With a clatter, Xia Wan'er dropped the documents in her hands to the floor; her eyes widened in shock: "Who did you say? Blood-Handed Asura? How is that possible!"

The Dragon King shook his head and said, "I also think it's unlikely, but according to the information, there's a thirty percent chance that Ling Feng is the Blood-Handed Asura. That's already quite high!"

"Why!"

Eight years ago, the Blood-Handed Asura emerged and annihilated the Heaven's Gate assassins in his first battle. With this feat, Blood-Handed Asura became famous in a single fight. Over the next eight years, he stirred up storms of blood and violence in the Underworld, becoming one of the most terrifying War Gods anyone could encounter. But Wan'er, have you noticed? In that first battle of Blood-Handed Asura, he rescued the British Princess Daphne, who was only fifteen years old. When she was saved by Blood-Handed Asura, she was heard murmuring a sentence."

"That sentence was, 'Brother, don't go!' " the Dragon King said solemnly, "This sentence didn't catch anyone else's attention; everyone thought she referred to another prince from the British Royal Family. But is there a possibility that the 'brother' Daphne mentioned was actually the Blood-Handed Asura?"

Xia Wan'er frowned: "Are you saying that Daphne saw what Blood-Handed Asura looked like and realized that he was just a youth too?"

The Dragon King nodded: "If that's the case, then the information on Blood-Handed Asura matches up with Ling Feng! Half a year ago, Blood-Handed Asura led numerous assassins in a counterattack against Divine Gate, facing off against the Divine Gate instructors in a battle that shook the heavens. After that battle, there was no more news of Blood-Handed Asura! And half a year later, Ling Feng appeared in Huaxia. Ling Feng possesses tremendous strength, is decisive and ruthless in his actions. I can't imagine, for someone his age to reach S-class strength, who else could he be if not Blood-Handed Asura?"

After hearing the Dragon King's deductions, a worried look flashed across Xia Wan'er's face, but it disappeared quickly as she smiled and said, "Cheng Feng, have you considered one thing, even if Ling Feng is Blood-Handed Asura, so what?"

The Dragon King was taken aback: "Wan'er, what do you mean by that? If he is Blood-Handed Asura, how could we possibly hand Ting Yu over to him? Isn't that too dangerous?"

"Is Blood-Handed Asura more dangerous than the Dragon King?" Xia Wan'er said indifferently, "Aren't you, as the Dragon King, one of the Eight War Gods of the Underworld? Do you think you're very dangerous?"

"It's not the same, Blood-Handed Asura has a notorious reputation!" the Dragon King said gravely, "I could never..."

"Liu Chengfeng!" At that moment, Xia Wan'er suddenly interrupted him, staring into the Dragon King's eyes and saying, "So what if he's Blood-Handed Asura? If he truly loves Ting Yu with all his heart, what's so unacceptable about that? Like you said, since he turned against Divine Gate, it means he doesn't want to be controlled by them. You know better than I do what kind of organization Divine Gate is, don't you, as the Dragon King of the Dragon Group?"

The Dragon King fell silent.

"If he is Blood-Handed Asura, him returning to Huaxia only means he wishes to find his roots," Xia Wan'er said earnestly. "Even if you have any doubts, you can go and verify them yourself. But until you do, I won't allow you to tear those two apart because of this!"

The Dragon King gave a bitter smile: "Wan'er, what kind of spell has Ling Feng cast on you? You've only met him once, yet you're defending him like this?"

Xia Wan'er chuckled softly: "I didn't finish telling you, I could sense the surging power within Ling Feng, but in his eyes, twinkled only love for Ting Yu – an undiluted love that can't be feigned!"

After a pause, Xia Wan'er's voice revealed a trace of sadness: "Don't forget, Ting Yu has less than five years left to live. Can't you let her spend those years happy and carefree?"

At these words, a pained expression crossed the Dragon King's face. Although he was one of the Eight War Gods of the Underworld, a belief and totem of the Dragon Group, one of the most powerful men in the world,

he was powerless against his daughter's illness. For a father, that was an unbearably painful thing!
