Chapter 755: The Arrival of Magnates!
The one with the most complicated feelings was none other than King Mu.
He did not expect his daughter to be so determined!
After hesitating for a moment, he also said in a powerful voice, “That’s right. Shi Qianhan is now the son-in-law of the King Mu Fort. If anyone dares to make a move on him, the entire fort will definitely fight them to death!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s expressions changed. Even Situ Yun and his son were no exception.
At that moment, a disdainful laughter exploded in everyone’s ears, “King Mu is truly extraordinarily domineering!”
Following this laughter, a commotion broke out among the crowd outside the hall. Many people retreated to the side.
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, a black shadow quickly flew over from the sky. It was a sedan chair.
The sedan chair was carried by four women in palace clothes, and all of them were venerable stage powerhouses. The four of them soared through the sky and carried the sedan chair over swiftly.
Inside the sedan chair sat a young man in luxurious clothes with a cold face. The young man held a fan, and he was extremely arrogant.
“It’s him, the young master of the Seven Mysteries Mansion, Li Hao!”
“Tsk, I didn’t expect even him to come!”
“…”
When they saw the young man’s face clearly, everyone on the ground gasped simultaneously.
The Seven Mysteries Mansion!
It was an overlord that suppressed the Tianfeng sea area, and it was the only grade-9 sect in the entire sea area. Even though the City Governor of Tianfeng City, Situ Yun, possessed the backing of a dynasty, he was still slightly terrified of the Seven Mysteries Mansion.
Before everyone could react, a few loud laughs rang out.
“Hahaha!
“We were just about to pay Brother Mu a visit. We didn’t expect that Brother Mu would be having a joyous occasion. This is truly a joyous occasion!”
When the laughter entered everyone’s ears, their eardrums were about to burst.
Following the laughter, a group of people slowly walked in!
Leading them were two middle-aged men. One of them was wearing a light gray satin robe. His eyes were sunken, making him look sharp. The most shocking thing was that he was holding an extremely sharp blade.
Beside him was a fat old man that wore a kasaya. The old man wore a steel headband, and his head was covered in dysentery. A string of prayer beads that were strung together from human bones hung on his neck.
“It’s Blood Blade Sect’s sect master, Feng Jingyao!”
“And Monk Lan of the Vile Valley!”
“…”
With the appearance of this group of people, the wedding venue fell into an uproar!
There were a total of five major forces in the entire Tianfeng sea area. Among them, the Seven Mysteries Mansion was ranked first, the City Governor’s Mansion ranked second, King Mu Fort third, Blood Blade Sect fourth, and the Vile Valley fifth.
These four great forces usually fight openly and secretly. Who would have thought that they would actually gather together at a wedding?
In an instant, the expressions of countless people changed as their gazes flickered. The four great forces had joined hands to come. They most likely had ill intentions!
King Mu’s face twitched slightly before he led his men out and said expressionlessly, “Young Master Li, Sect Master Feng, and Monk Lan, the three of you have gathered at the King Mu Fort today. Could it be that you want to be like City Governor Situ, wrecking the joyous occasion?”
If all of them attacked together, the combined forces of everyone in the King Mu Fort would be insufficient. After all, there were only two venerable stage powerhouses on their side, and the Grand Elder amongst them had yet to return.
“No!”
After the Seven Mysteries Mansion’s Young Master Li Hao landed on the ground, he waved the fan in his hand and said gracefully, “Fort Master Mu has misunderstood. Today, I’m here purely to congratulate you.”
Blood Blade Sect’s sect master Feng Jingyao laughed, “We heard that Ms. Mu was attacked by thieves on her way back to Tianfeng City, so we came to show our concern!”
“That’s right!”
Monk Lan of the Vile Valley took a deep look at Li Hao, his eyes flickering as he said, “This old monk heard that the people who attacked Ms. Mu claimed to be from the Seven Mysteries Mansion. I didn’t believe it, so I came to confirm it. I never thought that I would actually meet Young Master Li here!”
Just as he finished speaking, everyone could not help but look at Li Hao!
On the night that Mu Caiwei returned to Tianfeng City, they had also heard the news that she had been attacked by a mysterious force. The most widely circulated version was that the Seven Mysteries Mansion attacked them.
“Nonsense!”
The Seven Mysteries Mansion’s Young Master, Li Hao, smirked coldly, “My Seven Mysteries Mansion has always been upright and just, so how could we do such an inappropriate thing? Furthermore, who doesn’t know that my Seven Mysteries Mansion has a good relationship with the King Mu Fort? I hope that King Mu would not believe in the provocation of someone with ulterior motives!”
King Mu smirked secretly. How could he not know that these people were pushing the blames, especially Li Hao, who had cleared all suspicion?
“My daughter has indeed been attacked!”
He snorted and said, “Fortunately, the Mu family was prepared, so my daughter is fine. However, this matter isn’t over yet. If I find evidence, I won’t let this matter rest!”
Hearing those words, Li Hao and the other two narrowed their eyes, secretly trying to figure out the meaning behind King Mu’s words. Even City Governor Situ Yun’s eyes narrowed.
‘He came prepared?
Could it be that the Patriarch of Hell who made a move that night was from King Mu Fort? Or was he related to King Mu Fort?’
In that moment, the few old foxes began to plan in their hearts.
Feng Jingyao, the sect master of the Blood Blade Sect, glanced at Ye Chen and said while laughing, “So, you’re Brother Mu’s son-in-law? You have an extraordinary aura. You’re a perfect match for Ms. Mu.”
‘Shameless!’
Quite a number of people secretly cursed when they heard that.
“King Mu, I came in a hurry and didn’t prepare any gifts. I can only give you a jade pendant. I hope you don’t mind!”
Li Hao waved his fan and a female servant walked to Ye Chen while holding a jade pendant in her hands.
Ye Chen had a forced smile on his face because he could sense a trace of vile energy on the jade through his Divine Consciousness.
Obviously, Li Hao had ulterior motives!
King Mu did not want to embarrass Ye Chen in the presence of outsiders. He said while smiling, “Since it’s Young Master Li’s gift, take it, Qianhan!”
Ye Chen reached out to take it. However, he saw the servant’s hand tremble. She grabbed Ye Chen’s outstretched hand intentionally.
“Master Shi, I’m sorry!”
The female servant retracted her hand. The entire process seemed normal to outsiders.
Ye Chen looked at her deeply, “It’s fine!”
“Since Young Master Li has already presented his gift, it would be rude if we came empty-handed!”
The Blood Blade Sect’s sect master also smiled and ordered people to bring over a pair of golden bracelets. The Vile Valley’s Monk Lan brought over a set of ivory chopsticks.
City Governor of Tianfeng City, Situ Yun, gave him two grade-3 medicinal pills out of obligation. Then, he left with a scowl.
The crisis was resolved just like that. It was a little shocking. What they did not know was that the four forces came to investigate Ye Chen mainly because they wanted to find out the background between the King Mu Fort and the Patriarch of Hell.
However, King Mu was tight with the secret. He seemed to be specious, causing these old foxes to fail to see through him.
