Chapter 538 - 537: The Day of the Wedding

Chapter 538: Chapter 537: The Day of the Wedding

Lin Bai, along with Mengyun Chuan, rode their flying swords, breaking through the Cloud Sky, headed straight for Qi Mountain.

Today, Qi Mountain was abuzz, decorated with festive lights and unparalleled liveliness.

From within Qi Mountain, powerful warriors from all over the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains were coming and going. They all had arrived to congratulate Qin Hai on his marriage to Mengyun Xiang.

Lin Bai and Mengyun Chuan hid themselves, blending with the crowd.

Looking at the wedding square, Qin Hai, a man now aged over seventy, seemed rejuvenated, grinning and graciously greeting the guests.

"That old beast!" Mengyun Chuan saw Qin Hai and growled with unrestrained anger.

Lin Bai reassured, "Brother Meng, don’t be hasty, we still don’t know where Qin Hai is keeping Miss Mengyun Xiang. We can settle scores later once we rescue Miss Mengyun Xiang."

Mengyun Chuan suppressed his anger, he too knew that rescuing Mengyun Xiang was of utmost importance at this time.

Lin Bai was alert, looking around and noting that the cultivation of the warriors coming and going was extremely powerful.

Just then, a clamor arose, and the crowd quickly dispersed.

From within the crowd, a group of powerful warriors was approaching head-on!

"How come the Yishan Family has come here?"

"It’s Chen Deqi, the patriarch of the Yishan Family!"

"My God! The young man following behind Chen Deqi, could it be the Young Master Yishan!"

"Young Master Yishan has come!"

The crowd cried out in astonishment.

In that group, at the forefront, was a middle-aged man and a young man.

The middle-aged man, even though in his middle years, was vigorous and robust. He exuded energy and strength, his aura as powerful as a dragon, steadfast and unyielding. His cultivation was extremely profound, and he had achieved the Great Perfection of the Half-step Divine Pill Realm.

Following behind the middle-aged man, the young man had a proud countenance and held a three-feet Qingfeng sword in his hand.

The crowd didn’t pay much attention to the young man, their eyes were drawn more to his sword.

Becuase his sword, even within the Hundread Thousand Great Mountains, was highly regarded!

Upon seeing Chen Deqi and Young Master Yishan approach, Qin Hai immediately exclaimed with great joy, "So it is Brother Chen Deqi and Young Master Yishan who have honored my humble wedding with their presence. I’m truly privileged."

Chen Deqi heartily laughed, "Hahaha, how can our Yishan Family miss the big wedding of the future master of Qi Mountain. We have prepared a little gift, hope Brother Qin won’t mind."

Qin Hai laughed, "Not at all, not at all. Please, Brother Chen, come in."

Immediately, Qin Hai and Chen Deqi walked side by side into the Great Hall.

Being the patriarch of the Yishan Family, Chen Deqi held a high status among the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, thus meriting special treatment.

As Qin Hai and Chen Deqi proceeded together towards the Great Hall, they exchanged glances and both revealed tacit smiles.

The appearance of Young Master Yishan caused a stir.

Mengyun Chuan roared, "Damn it! Damn it!"

Looking at Young Master Yishan, Lin Bai’s gaze gradually grew cold, quietly saying to himself, "This man, so strong!"

Just when Lin Bai was looking at Young Master Yishan,

Young Master Yishan halted his steps, suddenly turned back and glanced around. His handsome face masked with a pair of cold eyes scanned the whole scene.

But he found nothing.

Immediately, Young Master Yishan frowned and continued towards the Great Hall.

"Strange, how come I sensed a strong Sword Intention!"

"But, I can’t locate it?"

Youg Master Yishan felt perplexed.

Just a moment earlier, Young Master Yishan sensed a chilling Sword Intention.

He was taken aback.

He had only ever felt this kind of Sword Intention from one person before, Feng Yunxiu!

Just a moment ago, Young Master Yishan felt as if Feng Yunxiu had arrived?

Standing calmly in the crowd, Lin Bai saw Young Master Yishan glance around in search, then saw him looking frustrated as he walked towards the Great Hall, with a slight smile appearing on his face.

He waited around half an hour.

From within the great hall, a warrior emerged, shouting, "The wedding is about to begin, all guests are kindly requested to be quiet!"

"Bring in the bride!"

At this moment, Chen Deqi and Qin Hai reappeared from the Great Hall.

Qin Hai, in festive bridal attire, glowed with joy and happiness.

At this time, in the distant mountains.

A middle-aged woman was supporting a gorgeous young girl dressed in bridal attire, coming down from the mountain.

The young woman, wearing a phoenix crown, her face concealed behind a red veil.

Through the tiny holes in her veil, one could just barely see the traces of tears on her beautiful face and her deathly pale complexion.

"Sister!"

Mengyun Chuan immediately recognized the woman—it was indeed Mengyun Xiang.

Seeing Mengyun Xiang come over, Qin Hai wore a smirk of triumph on his face.

Immediately, Qin Hai announced to everyone, "Everyone, before the wedding begins, I have one more announcement to make!"

"After a heart-to-heart conversation with the Patriarch of the Yishan family, Chen Deqi, I have decided that Qi Mountain will become a branch of the Yishan Family!"

"Henceforth, the Yishan Family will have sole control over the selling of all beasts from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. You can hunt beasts to your heart’s content without worrying about finding buyers for them."

"Without Qi Mountain, the warriors won’t need to draw their weapons every time they meet in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains."

Qin Hai said laughingly.

"What does Qin Hai mean by this? Does he intend to destroy Qi Mountain?"

"Mad! The sons of Yishan Family, with hearts as black as their deeds, they extort thirty percent profit from the sale of each beast taken to them. In this case, we’re better off selling them ourselves in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains!"

"How could Qin Hai do such a disgraceful deed - isn’t the Meng Clan going to intervene?"

"Qi Mountain was painstakingly established by the Meng Clan! Now they’ve just handed it over to the Yishan family!"

"Look around, Brother. There’s not a single member of the Meng Clan here."

"I fear that members of the Meng clan are all confined or even killed by Qin Hai now!"

Many of the warriors were utterly shocked and began to voice their outrage.

A lot of people could tell that Qin Hai and Chen Deqi were in cahoots. They were filled with indignation.

Once the Yishan Family took over Qi Mountain, they would have absolute power within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains. Anyone wishing to trade beast resources would likely be heavily taxed by the Yishan Family.

Because they would have no choices left.

Either give the Yishan Family a profit of over 30 percent to handle the sale of these resources,

Or leave the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains themselves and sell these resources.

The point being, it would take at least a month to travel to and from the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to sell the resources, which was a huge waste of these warriors’ time.

Therefore, many adventurers were upset over the Yishan Family’s annexation of Qi Mountain.

Compared to the Yishan Family, Qi Mountain’s prices were fairly reasonable.

Chen Deqi laughed heartily, saying, "Haha, from now on, we adventurers of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are all one family. Feel free to bring your resources to the Yishan Family. We will most definitely offer you a fair price!"

Chen Deqi was extremely pleased. His plan, which had been devised over ten years, was finally coming to fruition.

From now on, within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, the Yishan Family was the single dominant power.

Just at this moment, Mengyun Xiang suddenly flung her phoenix crown to the ground and angrily said, "Qin Hai, Chen Deqi, keep dreaming! I won’t marry you!"

"If I don’t marry you, you’re not a legitimate member of the Meng Clan and you have no right to be head of Qi Mountain. Thus, the future of Qi Mountain is not for you to determine!"
