"Why are you still alive?"
Yan Honghai's face was filled with disbelief. His eyes were wide open as he stared at Long Chen. He even ignored the beautiful girl standing next to Long Chen.
Although the other two guards didn't say anything, they too had the same question in their minds. Long Chen's appearance was definitely a huge shock to them.
"Why I'm still alive is not important. What's important is that I'm still alive."
Long Chen smiled, then he turned to Yan Honghai and said, "Big brother Yan, I need to ask you for some information."
"Tell me."
Yan Honghai was shocked. He looked at the other two guards and said with a troubled expression, "Young master Long Chen, do you know that the Lingwu family is now looking for Master Xuanxiao in the entire Yuan Ling County? You're Master Xuanxiao's adopted son, and you were involved in that incident. That's why, that's why I should arrest you …"
He was struggling in his mind. Actually, Dongfang Xuanxiao had been taking good care of him all these years, but it was because of Yan Honghai that Dongfang Xuanxiao and Long Chen ended up like this. Of course, without Yan Honghai, there would be someone else who would inform the Blue Dragon Patriarch, but Yan Honghai still felt bad about it.
But, he had to do his duty, and he had to do it now.
"Brother Yan, if you don't want to do it, then we'll do it."
The other two guards looked at each other, then they walked towards Long Chen. They were both Early Heavenly Core warriors, and if it was the old Long Chen, he would never be able to handle them.
"You want to do it?"
Long Chen let out a cold laugh. He wasn't afraid at all. In fact, from their conversation just now, Long Chen had found out that Dongfang Xuanxiao was still alive, and that was enough for him.
Just as Long Chen was about to attack, the beautiful Li Xuanji beside him became impatient. She casually waved her hand, causing Yan Honghai and the other two guards' faces to turn pale, and they were knocked back while coughing up blood.
"Don't waste time. Ask whatever you want," she said indifferently.
Long Chen knew that time was of the essence, and he couldn't care less about Yan Honghai's injuries. He walked in front of him, and in front of his shocked eyes, he asked, "Big Brother Yan, do you know anything about my little sister, Yang Lingqing? I'll ask you this once. If you don't answer, you see, she will easily kill you."
Yan Honghai couldn't understand how this unbelievably beautiful girl could injure him so severely with just a light wave of her hand. However, his mind worked quickly. When Long Chen asked his question, he immediately replied, "Bei Tang Mo is going to marry Yang Lingqing today. You'll know when you go to the Beitang Clan."
A wedding reception.
Heh, you're just courting death.
… …..
For the Beitang Clan, today was a big day. Of course, it was also a big day for the Lingwu family. Because today, the most outstanding son of the head of the Beitang Clan, Bei Tangming, and the most outstanding genius of the Beitang Clan, Bei Tang Mo, was going to marry his adopted little sister, Yang Lingqing.
Of course, after the wedding, his adopted little sister would no longer be his adopted little sister, but his wife.
Yang Lingqing had the Profound Yin Body, and after she had learned the correct cultivation method, she had reached the Late Mortal Core realm. In the future, she might even surpass Bei Tang Mo and become the hidden ace of the Beitang Clan. Therefore, Bei Tangming was willing to pay any price to tie her to the Beitang Clan. This was something that all the other three clans agreed with. However, Dongfang Xuanxiao had messed things up and caused this matter to be delayed. Now, Dongfang Xuanxiao had chosen to betray the Lingwu family, and Bei Tangming had set an auspicious date overnight. The auspicious date was today. For the past month, the Beitang Clan had been preparing for this grand ceremony.
The wedding this time was very grand. Not only did the Beitang Clan invite the important figures of the other three inner clans of the Lingwu family, the nine Supreme Elders of the outer clans, and representatives from all the other clans in Yuan Ling City were also present.
Right at this moment, the Beitang Clan was decorated with lanterns and colored banners. All kinds of people were shuttling back and forth. It was very lively. All kinds of servants, cooks, and maids were busy shuttling back and forth. The originally quiet Martial Lingwu Inner Clan was suddenly filled with so many people, and it was hard for anyone to get used to it.
Shouts, laughter, cheers, and flattery could be heard everywhere in the Beitang Clan. In the biggest main hall of the Beitang Clan, the Xuanwu Hall, the wedding ceremony had yet to begin, but it was already filled with guests. These guests came from all over the world, and most of them knew each other, but they hadn't seen each other for many years. Right now, they were all chatting with each other.
Fiery red colored lanterns were hung everywhere, and beautiful red paper cutouts were pasted everywhere. On the entrance of the Xuanwu Hall, a 'Xi' character was carved out of a type of fiery crystal. When the guests saw this fiery red 'Xi' character that was even burning with flames, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration again and again.
In the Xuanwu Hall, all the people who should be present had already arrived. The nine Supreme Elders of the outer clans were gathered together. On the other side, three of the four Elders of the Dongfang Clan, Feng, Yu, and Yun Xiao had already arrived. As for the leaders of the Vermillion Bird and White Tiger Clans, they had also arrived, sitting to the left of Dongfang Xuanfeng.
The auspicious time was approaching, and the elders of both clans were already sitting at the head of the table. On the left side, Bei Tangming was wearing a bright red robe, looking very festive. At this time, he was smiling and greeting the guests around him. He was talking and laughing wittily, looking like a leader of a big clan. On the other hand, Yang Yuntian looked much more shabby. He was wearing a set of clothes, showing that he was just a small character from a small place. His forced smile and embarrassed and frightened eyes also proved that he was weak and helpless.
The guests present were praising Bei Tangming for being so handsome at such an age, but at the same time, they were slandering Yang Yuntian.
"I've heard that the woman that Beitang Ming married possesses a Profound Yin Body. However, that woman's father is truly a disgrace."
"I think you are just jealous. He has a good daughter, and from now on, he is going to soar into the sky and become the in-laws of the Beitang clan. I think you want this kind of honor even in your dreams."
"Nonsense! However, although that girl of mine doesn't have the Profound Yin Body, her appearance isn't bad. If Young Master Beitang Mo had chosen my daughter instead, her father wouldn't have been so shabby and thrown away the face of the Beitang Family …"
"Old Zhao, be careful with your words. You can speak softly."
"Oh, oh, yes, yes."
Yang Yuntian could vaguely hear such a conversation.
"In-laws, don't pay attention to these short-sighted people. If Lingqing can marry my son, I promise that the Yang clan will become a big clan within a hundred miles. When that time comes, the Yang clan will also be a prominent clan."
Yang Yuntian nodded and hurriedly expressed his thanks. This was originally a great thing, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes. Yang Lingqing had already told him about Long Chen's matter. He knew that Yang Lingqing was unwilling, and he also knew that the clan's greatest hope, Long Chen, was now gone without a trace.
After hearing this news, the entire Yang clan almost collapsed. Even the patriarch of the Yang clan couldn't handle this kind of news, let alone the others. Yang Lingqing also washed her face with tears every day in the Beitang clan. After a month, she finally calmed down. However, Bei Tang Mo and the others found that she rarely spoke since then. The coldness in her eyes sometimes made Bei Tang Mo feel afraid.
This time, the Yang clan, as the bride's family, only sent Yang Yuntian to the wedding. From this, it could be seen that the Yang clan was dissatisfied. At this time, the Yang clan was shrouded in a gloomy fog.
At this time, the emcee standing at the door shouted at the top of his voice, "We've arrived in time. Let's perform the ceremony."
While he was speaking, the bride and groom had already entered through the side door. Bei Tang Mo was dressed very handsomely today. He was wearing a red robe embroidered with a male symbol, a golden dragon, and black combat boots. Under his scholarly appearance, there was a trace of domineering murderous aura.
This kind of man and the halo behind him was destined to make countless girls crazy.
Yang Lingqing's face was hidden under the red veil, covering her increasingly beautiful face. However, the curves under her clothes showed that she was already a woman with feminine charm.
However, it could be seen that her body was trembling at this time.
"Qing`er, are you nervous? Don't be afraid, I'm here. Every girl will face such a moment. Only after going through the transformation of the wedding will you be able to grow into a real woman," Beitang Mo whispered into Yang Lingqing's ear with a faint smile.
Yang Lingqing's delicate body trembled slightly, but she didn't say anything.
"Let me tell you a piece of good news. My father got a Fire Dragon Fruit for me. The Fire Dragon Fruit has the power of blazing flames. It can make me strong for a short time and won't be harmed by your Profound Yin Body. So tonight, we can finally consummate our marriage …"
After saying this, Bei Tang Ming laughed softly.
Yang Lingqing narrowed her eyes and two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks.
"Even he is dead. In this world, there is no one to protect me. So I have to be strong." Yang Lingqing secretly grasped the hem of her clothes tightly.
The auspicious time had arrived, and then it was time to perform the ceremony. After three bows, they would be a real husband and wife. Yang Lingqing was a very traditional person. As long as they performed the ceremony, she would accept her fate.
Although she didn't like this environment and didn't like the person next to her, when fate was strong, no one could resist it.
Looking at Yang Lingqing and Bei Tang Mo standing in front of him, Bei Tang Ming stroked his long beard and laughed heartily. However, Yang Yuntian's smile was somewhat forced, which made him look a little wretched.
This smile immediately caused a burst of laughter.
Vaguely, Yang Lingqing knew that they were mocking her father. She didn't feel humiliated, but angry. She tightly grasped the hem of her red clothes. Because she used too much strength, her fingers turned purple.
"Father, I will help you get revenge for this debt. And revenge for my brother …"
The magic in her heart gradually ignited and burned wildly.
"First bow to the heavens and earth." Everyone was ready. The master of ceremonies quickly shouted with a smile on his face.
Bei Tang Mo and Yang Lingqing turned around and faced the door.
Everyone smiled as they watched this scene.
At this moment, with a boom, the huge flaming 'Xi' character on the door turned into powder. The fragments fell to the ground and the master of ceremonies, who was full of smiles, was directly sent flying. Under the focus of everyone's eyes, a figure walked into Xuanwu Hall.
