Chapter 479: Chapter 473: Here it Comes (4 updates)

"..." Xu Yaoyao wanted to retort, but didn’t know how.

"Your life is your own, I promised your grandfather I would protect you for three years!" Su Chen said solemnly, "But, that’s just protection, not preventing you from committing suicide!"

"I understand!" Xu Yaoyao lowered her head.

Su Chen didn’t say anything more and quickened his pace.

At the same time.

Holy Spirit Martial Arts Field.

Members of the Xing Family had already arrived.

Family head Xing Gaolong was beaming, holding a wine glass, and toasting from time to time.

Although the bride had not yet arrived, the banquet had already started.

The entire Holy Spirit Martial Arts Field was harmonious and bustling.

"For the city lord to grace us with his presence, I, Xing, am truly honored!" At this moment, Xing Gaolong was facing Jiang Shenyi, holding a wine glass, and said earnestly.

"Hahaha... Xing Nie is a once-in-a-lifetime talent of Holy Spirit City; how could I not attend his wedding?" Jiang Shenyi said with a laugh, "In the future, have Xing Nie visit the City Lord’s Mansion when he has time."

Xing Gaolong’s eyes lit up, and his smile deepened, "Certainly, certainly, certainly!"

Jiang Shenyi was extending an olive branch, wasn’t he? The Jiang Family of the City Lord’s Mansion had always been mysterious.

Xing Gaolong had tried several times to connect with them, but to no avail.

Now, the opportunity had finally come.

Even the proud Jiang Family had changed their attitude because of their son.

Xing Gaolong was incredibly proud!

The most successful thing in his life was having a son like Xing Nie.

After toasting Jiang Shenyi, Xing Gaolong continued to visit other tables.

After Jiang Shenyi sat down, Jiang Yuncan by his side frowned slightly, "Father, are you really going to give another spot to Xing Nie?"

"It’s not certain yet, but Xing Nie is within my considerations," Jiang Shenyi nodded in agreement.

"He is very monstrous, but if he faces those freaks... he’s still somewhat lacking!" Jiang Yuncan shook her head.

"Yuncan, Xing Nie is still improving, and besides him, there aren’t many better choices!" Jiang Shenyi sighed, "Those surpassing Xing Nie, unless from the second rank or even first rank forces of the Xuanfeng Dynasty, or the top-level geniuses from the Holy Spirit Martial Arts Academy, but... if we invite them to participate, the Jiang Family and you will definitely not be able to take the lead, and even if we get some benefits in the end, the Jiang Family won’t even have the right to distribute them. The Jiang Family would be making a wedding dress for someone else."

Jiang Yuncan furrowed her brows.

Her father was right.

She was going to participate in that competition filled with freaks and monstrous talents, lacking a companion, and of course, the stronger the better. However, there’s a prerequisite: this companion’s background must not be as strong as the Jiang Family’s so that, in the end, whatever benefits or rewards are received, the Jiang Family can take the lion’s share.

At the same time.

"Pop, pop, pop, pop..."

Crystal firecrackers sounded!

They had arrived.

Eighty bridal sedans had arrived.

In an instant, everyone in the Martial Arts Arena looked up towards the bride’s sedan... Ling Long was already very beautiful, so how much more so today?

Soon.

Accompanied by Sui Li and three other groomsmen, groom Xing Nie stepped onto the high platform.

The bridal sedan was below the high platform; bride Ling Long had already stepped out of the sedan and stood there, supported by several maids.

On the platform.

Old Huang, who had been ready for a while, began to speak, "Firstly, thank you all for coming!"

This Old Huang was a highly respected elder of Holy Spirit City, having lived a full ninety thousand years, a veritable long-liver.

Old Huang was a Divine Power Realm Ninth Level expert, a loner with high status.

Having Old Huang act as the officiant was a true testament to the Xing Family’s prestige.

"As everyone knows, Xing Nie is the leader, the most talented of the younger generation in Holy Spirit City!!! Do you all agree?" Old Huang continued.

From below.

"Agree!"

"Agree!"

"Agree!"

.......

A wave of heat-like roars, particularly those mixed with the shouts of the Xing Family members, were filled with pride as they all stood up and yelled with all their might.

"So, just like all of you, I have come to the Martial Arts Arena today to witness the wedding of Xing Nie, to witness the day this supreme genius forms his household!" Old Huang continued, "I am old and won’t say too much. I imagine, everyone is impatient... Now, please welcome the bride to the stage!"

As his words fell.

All eyes turned toward Ling Long, countless gazes fixed on her.

Ling Long’s delicate body shivered.

No one knew what she was thinking at that moment.

Then.

Supported by several maids.

Step by step, the bride walked toward the stage.

"Hmph!" Below, Jiang Yuncan scoffed, "To put it bluntly, this is nothing but the forceful taking of a civilian girl!"

"Cough cough..." Jiang Shenyi almost choked, "Daughter, keep your voice down."

"If the Xing Family dares to do it, why shouldn’t I dare to speak up?" Jiang Yuncan’s emotions seemed somewhat charged, "Everyone saw it during the fight between Xing Nie and Ning Tianhang that day, Ling Long had no willingness to marry Xing Nie!"

"Daughter, this is the world of martial arts cultivation where the weak cannot decide their own fate!" Jiang Shenyi said solemnly.

"That is why I must become strong!!!" The conviction in Jiang Yuncan’s voice grew stronger.

"You are already strong."

"Not enough!"

On the stage.

Ling Long had already ascended the platform.

"Please welcome the groom’s father Xing Gaolong and the bride’s elder Lan Xiangnan!" Seeing that the bride was on stage, Old Huang called out loudly.

Xing Gaolong and Lan Xiangnan, who had been prepared for some time, also ascended the stage.

They took their seats at the chairs placed directly in front of them.

The next part of the ceremony would be to bow to heaven and earth, and to the elders, which meant the parents and elders of both the bride and groom.

"Groom and bride, please be ready!" Old Huang looked towards Xing Nie and Ling Long again.

It was time to bow to heaven and earth.

Xing Nie was stirred with excitement.

After the bowing ceremony, Ling Long would forever be his woman, his concubine!!!

At this moment.

Ling Long’s delicate body quivered, and she subconsciously took a small step back. However, it was such a small step that few noticed it.

Below the stage, almost everyone had stood up, staring at the platform, waiting for Xing Nie and Ling Long to bow to heaven and earth—the most important part of the wedding.

"One bow..." A few breaths later, Old Huang spoke solemnly, his voice loud.

However.

At the same instant when Old Huang had just uttered the words "One bow", not having yet said "to heaven and earth".

Tap, tap, tap...

In the silence of the Martial Arts Arena.

Abruptly, a series of crisp footsteps sounded. They were not loud, but strangely, due to the quietness, every person heard them.

In an instant, everyone turned their gaze toward the source of the sound.

In their sight.

Was a young man, a man in his twenties, his expression calm, his face handsome and sunny as he walked step by step toward the stage.

The newcomer was Su Chen.

In the crowd below, Xu Yaoyao lifted her head, watching Su Chen, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

She also longed for, and envied, this kind of love.

Su Chen, for the sake of Ling Long, had so resolutely interrupted the wedding!

And that day, for Su Chen, Ling Long did not hesitate to choose death!

This kind of love, is true love.
