"Phew" Zhu Ling Yu sighed. he had just barely escaped by the skin of teeth. Well more like the skin of... what were his robes made out of anyway? Granny Ai and Granny Yi had shoved it into his arms and flung him into a changing room. He had hesitantly gotten dressed 'cause 'Who knows what they're thinking' and he was right. Of course he should have noticed it's striking similarities to wedding garments, but why we he be suspicious of his wonderful grannies? Though he probably should have been tipped off by their requests for great-grandchildren, and the gleam in their eyes, but he didn't want to think his beloved grannies would betray him. But honestly trying to marry him off to Chen Mei? That was an accident waiting to happen. Sure she was beautiful, and from good lineage, but her personality was horrible, she was his number one fangirl and always acted fake, and she didn't even care about her cultivation levels! She was slightly over a century older than his couple thousand years, but he would have been able to beat her easily when he was only a bit over two hundred! Two hundred! She was a disgrace to her family name, and they tried to marry him off to her? Where is the love? The common decency? Oh sure he was of 'marriageable age' but was it his problem that all the girls in his age-group were all fangirling wastes of space who thought more about their looks then their cultivation? He was only interested in a woman who could defend herself, he wasn't looking for a genius! Was that too much to ask? He had said as much when the hoards of fangirls had asked his preferences. 'Do you prefer short hair or long hair?' 'What do you think about the color of my dress?' All sorts of inane questions that had no bearing on the topic of what type of girls he preferred. Of course what did they do after he answered? Continue to ignore their cultivation, that's what! They focused even more on superficial things like makeup and jewels and fancy silks. Honestly, he had been entertaining the idea of a vacation long before that farce of a wedding attempt had been made, and it merely sped up his plans. Thankfully, he had already packed everything he needed into a space ring, and had kept the ring on him when the ambush had occurred. Even if he hadn't had it though, he would have been fine with what he had in his pocket dimension.
