The commotion in the Mystic Pavilion wasn't small, and those relevant forces were, of course, aware of it. They naturally knew the relationship between Yun Lintian, Wu Qingcheng, and Jiang Yingyue.
With Wu Qingcheng's tough attitude, they had to consider whether Wu Liwei would intervene in this upcoming battle. If that were the case, they would have to think twice before making a move.
Among the irrelevant forces, those with discerning eyes seemed to see the wind's direction. They could feel something big was about to happen soon, and it was likely to be a major event that would go down in history.
With this thinking, they didn't dare to stay in the Azure Ancient City further, but they also didn't go far away. They had retreated to nearby towns, waiting to see the upcoming event.
Today could be said to be Azure Ancient City's most lively and bustling day in many years.
The streets outside the Wang Clan's manor were practically bursting with streams of people. All the taverns and inns, large or small, had already been sold out as early as several days in advance. Even though their prices had been inflated by more than ten times, waves and waves of people still scrambled over as if they had lost their minds.
Naturally, the marriage between Wang Lin and Jiang Yingyue had nothing to do with most of them, but they didn't want to miss a chance to show their presence by sending a congratulatory gift. Even if they couldn't be remembered by the Wang Clan, they could safely say they had already expressed goodwill.
As far as the eye could see, the entire Wang Clan's manor was decorated with lanterns and colorful banners, soaring with a joyous atmosphere. Shining red lanterns and bright red carpets were everywhere. Gift carts with extremely lavish decorations came in cart after cart, composing an incredible scenery.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithin the manor, colorful streamers fluttered in the air, and tens of thousands of flowers bloomed together. For their eldest young master's marriage, the Wang Clan didn't hold anything back. The scene would naturally be exceptionally luxurious and grand as much as possible.
"Look like they didn't plan to humiliate us." Inside a carriage, Jiang Zhu lifted a curtain and looked at the scenery outside with a smile.
He turned to his father, who sat opposite him and asked. "Father, have you heard about sister's junior brother?"
Jiang Yuanjun glanced at the scenery outside briefly and said. "You should stay in the place calmly when we go in."
Jian Zhu curled his lips. "What could I do? You are thinking too much, father."
Jiang Yuanjun didn't respond and closed his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking right now.
"Jiang Clan's Patriarch Jiang has arrived!"
"Weilan Clan's Third Young Master has arrived!"
"Mo Clan's Patriarch Mo and his family have arrived!"
"Xia Clan's Patriarch Xia and his family have arrived!"
A master of ceremonies stood by the entrance and made an announcement one by one. The names he announced were naturally big shots among Azure Ancient City's forces.
"Chu Clan's Patriarch Chu and his family have arrived!"
As his voice fell, the Chu Clan horse carriages slowly passed through the manor gate and went straight to the main hall without stopping.
Inside the first carriage, Chu Kui stared at a young man clad in an ordinary white robe coldly. This person was no other than Yun Lintian, who disguised himself as Chu Quan's servant.
"It should be the time to release my son, right?" He said coldly.
Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and replied with a smile. "Patriarch Chu. We both know what is going on currently. Since I promise to release your son from the Soul Contract, I naturally do as I said… However, it isn't the right timing yet."
Chu Kui's eyes narrowed slightly. "It doesn't matter. You will definitely die soon."
"Why bother then?" Yun Lintian chuckled. "I'm actually curious about this. Since all of you know my identity and my method of entering this place. Why don't you all come out now? What are you waiting for?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChu Kui sneered. "People said you are very smart, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Do you understand? In everyone's eyes, you are nothing but a mere pitiful ant that can be crushed at any time… If it wasn't for my son, I wouldn't bother to even talk with you."
Yun Lintian nodded slightly. "But from my information, you didn't seem to care about your third son before. Why now? Don't give me a ridiculous reason like he's your son or something."
Chu Kui's face darkened. It was true that he didn't care much about Chu Quan's life. He hesitated to take action against him mainly because he didn't want to be regarded as someone who killed his own cub.
Seeing this, Yun Lintian chuckled. "I see. You are caring about your reputation. It seems you can't wait for me to kill your worthless son now… You can even use this excuse to join forces with others and attack me. I must say, your plan is not bad."
He looked straight into Chu Kui's eyes and said calmly. "Unfortunately, you will have to wait for a while… How about I let your son perform a dance to liven up the atmosphere later?"
"Bastard!" Chu Kui was so angry and almost released his power. If Yun Lintian did what he said, his Chu Clan would instantly become laughingstocks in everyone's eyes.
Yun Lintian laughed and turned to Chu Quan, who sat beside him. "Congratulations, Brother Chu. Looks like your old man still cares about you."
His words were like knives pierced into Chu Quan's heart. Chu Quan's face was ashen beyond words. The truth was in front of him. His father didn't care about him at all.
He raised his head slightly to look at his father. His eyes were filled with unconcealed resentment and hatred.
Chu Kui's anger rose to another level when he saw this. Fortunately, he managed to hold back in the end.
He looked at Yun Lintian and said coldly. "I hope you can still have a sharp mouth later."
"Oh, you don't have to worry about that, Patriarch Chu." Yun Lintian smiled brightly and looked toward the main hall in the distance…
