Chapter 421: Chapter 421: Don’t Insist on Consummating the Marriage as Soon as We Meet

"By the decree of Fairy Xifeng, the Shangguan Family must deliver Shangguan Min Yue to the Gong Family for marriage by nightfall."

Gong Tianao stood outside the gates of the Shangguan Family, holding the Xifeng Token with a rebellious look on his face.

As these words were spoken, Shangguan Qingyun’s complexion drastically changed.

He had thought that after Lin Fan had dealt with them, the Gong Family would behave themselves.

But to his utter surprise, they had sought the help of Fairy Xifeng.

And the Xifeng Token he held could not possibly be a fake.

"Shangguan Min Yue is already married, and her engagement to the Gong Family has been nullified long ago."

Shangguan Qingyun clenched his fists, his eyes filled with rage.

As for Shangguan Min Yue standing behind him, she glared at Gong Tianao with loathing.

The smile on his face now seemed all the more detestable.

"You think it’s nullified just because you say so? Do you think your words carry more weight, or does the Xifeng Token? Father-in-law, I’d advise you to carefully consider whether the Shangguan Family can withstand the rage of Fairy Xifeng."

Gong Tianao looked at the father and daughter with a sly grin.

With the Xifeng Token in his hand, he feared nothing.

"Gong Tianao, don’t push me too far!"

Shangguan Qingyun’s eyes were bloodshot, his teeth clenched in anger.

He had thought the matter was settled.

Yet, unexpectedly, the Gong Family dared to counterattack.

And the influential figure they invoked this time was truly a heavyweight.

Forget the Shangguan Family.

Even ordinary sects could hardly endure such an ordeal.

"I am pushing you too far, and what can you do about it? Are you willing to suffer for your pride, yet give no thought to the lives of hundreds in the Shangguan Family? And let me tell you, I’ve already submitted the list of your family members to Fairy Xifeng. If you don’t obediently deliver Shangguan Min Yue to my door as my wife tonight, I guarantee your Shangguan Family won’t live to see tomorrow’s sun."

Gong Tianao folded his arms, his eyes greedily scanning the delicate features of Shangguan Min Yue.

Her stern countenance was exceptionally beautiful.

Being able to hold her in his embrace would certainly be a celestial delight.

"Wife, remember to take a bath. Serve me well tonight, or not a single person in the Shangguan Family will survive. And I mean it!"

"You... shameless!"

The murderous intent in Shangguan Min Yue’s eyes was like two sharp knives.

If she had to marry such a ruffian, she’d rather die.

"What if I am shameless? You’d better put in a good effort tonight to make me comfortable enough. Maybe I’ll spare the Shangguan Family out of respect for our wedding night. After all, with just one word from my Gong Family, not a soul in your Shangguan Family will be left alive."

Gong Tianao stepped toward Shangguan Min Yue.

He whispered, "Tomorrow morning, your master will execute you to uphold the sect’s rules, but rest assured, tonight I’ll make you wish you could neither live nor die, ensuring you’ll always remember me, your husband. And don’t even think about suicide, because if you die, hundreds in the Shangguan Family will be buried with you!"

"You..."

Shangguan Min Yue truly wanted to run him through with her sword.

But the lives of hundreds in the Shangguan Family were at stake.

All she could do was grip her sword tightly, unable to do anything else.

"Alright, I won’t hold you up from preparing. Remember to make it loud with gongs and drums, letting everyone know that the Shangguan Family is eager to deliver Shangguan Min Yue to my bed. If there’s any slip-up, you’ll bear the consequences."

Gong Tianao left with a cold smile, heading toward the gate.

With the Xifeng Token in his possession, he was truly worry-free.

"Husband, what do we do now?"

As Gong Tianao departed, it was Min Yue’s mother who broke down first.

The always modest woman tightly held Shangguan Min Yue’s hand.

But her question left Shangguan Qingyun speechless.

Fairy Xifeng was a colossal figure renowned throughout the martial world.

A figure whose beckoning no one dared ignore.

Compared to such a formidable person, the Shangguan Family was no different from ants.

Therefore, all he could do now was sigh with a sense of powerlessness.

He was incapable of doing anything else.

"Father, one should take responsibility for one’s actions. I won’t implicate the Shangguan Family in this."

Shangguan Min Yue could see her father’s feeling of helplessness.

Moreover, that was her master.

She knew all too well just how powerful they were.

"Daughter, you’ve been wronged!"

Shangguan Qingyun gritted his teeth.

With tears in his eyes, he looked at his daughter.

As a father, his greatest responsibility was to protect his daughter.

But now, all he could do was cry; he was powerless to do anything else.

"Perhaps this is destiny, I accept it," he said.

Shangguan Min Yue’s face was cold.

Even at this moment, there were still no tears in her eyes.

What was meant to come would always come.

She had decided to accept the arrangements of fate.

But just then, the voice of Lin Fan drifted in from outside.

The members of the Shangguan family were all taken aback.

"Quite lively in here!"

Lin Fan walked in with a smile, his hands casually tucked in his pockets.

Behind him, there followed an old woman with snow-white hair.

"How did you get here!" Shangguan Min Yue asked Lin Fan.

Why was he showing up only now?

"What, should I not have come?" Lin Fan asked with a smile, walking up to Shangguan Min Yue.

Without another word, she immediately grabbed Lin Fan’s arm.

"You should, and you’ve arrived just in time. Follow me back there."

"Hold on, I haven’t even had a chance to chat with your uncle and aunt yet. Whatever it is, can’t it wait?" Lin Fan said in surprise, looking at Shangguan Min Yue.

She was in such a hurry to drag him off somewhere.

"To enter the bridal chamber!"

Knowing she was about to die, Shangguan Min Yue no longer needed to maintain her chastity; she had sped up her training.

Since she was to be married off that evening, she wanted to give herself to Lin Fan first.

"Don’t just think about entering the bridal chamber upon seeing each other. In broad daylight, too, is there really such a rush?" Lin Fan quickly pulled Shangguan Min Yue back.

It was too forthright of her to speak like this in front of so many elders.

"If we don’t do it now, it’ll be too late," Shangguan Min Yue said coldly.

Now, apart from giving herself to him,

She truly desired nothing else.

"You just go with her," Shangguan Qingyun turned his face away, waving his hand.

He didn’t mention anything about Fairy Xifeng.

After all, such a grandmaster was not someone Lin Fan could deal with.

In all of Jiangning, no one was capable of standing against her.

So at a time like this, it was pointless to speak further.

It was better to fulfill a last dying wish.

Moreover, during this time, Lin Fan had shown so much kindness to the Shangguan family.

If there were to be a true marital connection, he would truly become their son-in-law.

"Father-in-law, I know you’re eager to hold your grandson, but we’ll have to wait until Shangguan Min Yue’s power breaks through, right? And with Fairy Xifeng having arrived in Jiangning, isn’t it a bit inappropriate for us two to be rushing into the bridal chamber now?"

Lin Fan could clearly sense the truth that the father and daughter pair were trying to hide.

Yet, he already had a plan in mind.

"You know Fairy Xifeng has come!" Lin Fan’s response stunned both father and daughter.

However, Shangguan Qingyun still sighed and said, "Since you’re already aware, then spend more time talking to Min Yue. When the time comes, after she gets on the palanquin, I will arrange for someone to send you out of the city right away. You should go as far as you can and not return for a short while. When things have calmed down, I’ll welcome you back."

"Father-in-law, are you regretting the marriage?" Lin Fan laughed, pulling Shangguan Min Yue into his arms.

He then glanced at the old woman, Miao Cuihua, following behind them.

"This young lady is now Lin Fan’s wife. Do you think she would be suitable to marry Gong Tianao?"
