**Chapter 393: How Did the Defense Break?**

A week before the wedding, Zhao Ling set off for Wuhun City.

Bibi Dong, who was discussing important matters with Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo, saw Zhao Ling coming again.

Noticing that he had something important to discuss, Bibi Dong waved her hand and asked Gui and Ju to leave the Pope's Palace.

After they left, Bibi Dong smiled gently at him.

"Hubby, what's wrong? Didn't you just leave Wuhun City less than a month ago? Why are you here again?"

Zhao Ling had a warm smile on his face. He raised his hand and touched Bibi Dong's head before answering.

"Donger, your husband wants to formally give you and your group of sisters status. After all, we have been together for so long, and it's time for us to officially get married."

"Ah... get married? Husband, why didn't you mention this before? You suddenly bring it up now, and Dong'er feels a little caught off guard..."

Bibi Dong's face was filled with surprise.

Of course, she had wanted to marry Zhao Ling for a long time. Now that they had only one name but no title, it was inevitable that people would gossip about them.

"Sorry, it was Yin'er and Long'er who suddenly mentioned it this time, and I just remembered. I also think that the wedding must be put on the agenda.

So, I specially asked someone to pick a good day, which is a week later. After another five days, your husband will come to pick you up and take you to Tiandou City in person..."

"Then..." Bibi Dong suddenly hesitated and asked tentatively, "Are you just picking up Dong'er? What about Nana? Hubby, Nana is your woman now too. You can't be partial to one and ignore the other; otherwise, Nana will be sad."

"Silly girl," Zhao Ling raised his hand and pinched Bibi Dong's nose, saying with a smile, "How could a husband abandon Nana? Of course, she has to come with me to the wedding. By the way, where is that girl? Has she returned to Wuhun Academy?"

"Well… she is still a student at the Spirit Academy, and her studies are the most important thing to her right now. It's okay, husband, Dong'er will find time to talk to Nana about this."

Bibi Dong nestled her head into Zhao Ling's arms and replied considerately, which made him feel quite relieved.

After the two chatted for a while, Zhao Ling went to the worship hall.

At this moment, Qian Daoliu, Qian Xunji, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and a group of others were chatting.

Seeing Zhao Ling come in, Qian Daoliu spoke in a joking tone, "My grandson-in-law, why are you here again? Are you here to pay your respects to me? Actually, it doesn't need to be so troublesome. We are like family."

After Qian Daoliu finished speaking, Qian Xunji also added, "Indeed, son-in-law, you don't have to come and pay respects every few days. We don't care about that kind of etiquette. We are family, so why should we bother with all that?"

"..." Zhao Ling was speechless. Previously, Qian Daoliu had wanted him to call him "grandpa" quickly, and now Qian Xunji had begun to consider himself the father-in-law. Judging by his expression, he seemed to enjoy taking advantage of him.

However, Zhao Ling had no objections to this, so he took out a wedding invitation from his storage space and handed it directly to Qian Daoliu.

"I plan to marry Xue'er and her family in a week. I have already discussed this with Xue'er and her family. I also ask my father-in-law and grandfather to attend our wedding on time."

Qian Daoliu looked at the big red wedding invitation. His hands trembled, and his eyes gradually became confused.

Originally, he thought it was a good thing for his granddaughter to marry the Demon Suppression Douluo.

After all, with Zhao Ling's terrifying strength, he would definitely become a very powerful figure in the God Realm in the future.

When his granddaughter became a god, she would be protected by Zhao Ling, and he would not have to worry about encountering any danger.

But now Zhao Ling was actually planning to marry his granddaughter, and it would be next week.

He suddenly became a little nervous.

It wasn't just Qian Daoliu; even Golden Crocodile Douluo, Qian Xunji, and others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Isn't Zhao Ling too impatient?

Qian Daoliu took the wedding invitation with trembling hands, opened it, took a look, then put it aside and took a sip from the teacup beside him.

Then, he threw the teacup to the ground and started swearing sweet words at Zhao Ling.

"Zhao Ling, why are you so impatient? Do you want to marry my precious granddaughter home as soon as possible? I really want to kill you. If I weren't unable to beat you, believe it or not, I would have beaten you to a pulp right now!"

Zhao Ling, after digging his ears, disappeared from the spot. He didn't care how Qian Daoliu cursed and swore.

Anyway, he had kidnapped someone else's granddaughter, and she had gone with him willingly. No matter how angry the old guy was, what could he do?

Qian Xunji was also stunned when he saw his father talking so sweetly. Wasn't his father very open-minded?

It was obvious that his father had been indifferent when hearing that Zhao Ling had involved Xue'er.

He had previously stated that children and grandchildren had their own blessings and that he was relieved that Xue'er had married the Demon Suppression Douluo.

But why was his father so upset now? Look at him now; he looks like a shrew scolding on the street—what is this?

Now, his father didn't look like a 99th-level Extreme Douluo at all.

Qian Xunji hurriedly tried to comfort his father to prevent him from getting too emotional, fearing anything bad might happen.

After Qian Daoliu finished venting, he glanced at Qian Xunji and spoke to him in a neutral tone.

"You will attend the wedding next week on behalf of your father, but remember not to be impolite. We are a wealthy family; we don't want to be laughed at by others. Remember to tell Xue'er that if she is wronged by Zhao Ling, she can come back anytime, and we will support her. Although the Demon Suppression Douluo is extremely powerful, if he dares to bully my precious granddaughter, I will spray him to death."

"Okay, father, I'll remember it." Qian Xunji nodded and took the wedding invitation.

He was silently calculating how much dowry he should prepare for his daughter.

Of course, she was not just his daughter. Dong'er was his apprentice whom he raised, so she could be considered half a daughter to him.

So he also had to prepare Dong'er's dowry carefully.

The wedding was next week, and with so little time to prepare, it gave him a headache.

As for why he didn't curse at Zhao Ling like Qian Daoliu did, he thought it was probably because he had let it go.

Anyway, his daughter liked Zhao Ling so much, there was no point in objecting.

If this matter made the father and daughter unhappy, it would be a waste of time and effort.

His daughter had grown up; she was no longer the little girl next to him. She had her own opinions, and he could only silently wish her the best.
