Chapter 103: Untitled (2)
It was pure. It had no impurities.
As the lightning essence was exhausted, the Lightning Pearl shattered and its remnants dissipated from his hand.
The power of the Apotropaic Divine Lightning was doubled.
Looking at the ruined hall, he retracted his spiritual soul energy.
At this moment, the disciple’s voice could be heard from outside. “Seniors, the Sect Master invites you both to come over.”
The door swung open.
Xiao Ran transformed into the tiger demon again and walked out, closing the door.
The disciple was puzzled. “Why are you alone, Tiger Senior? Where’s Senior Lei?”
“Big Brother Lei is a little tired from traveling. He’s resting inside. Don’t disturb him. We’ll have another gathering by ourselves tonight after your Sect Master consummates his marriage,” Xiao Ran said.
“But the Divine Sword Guards are already here.”
“With me around, all your problems will be solved.”
“Of course,” the disciple replied with a flattering remark.
He then handed over the two Aura-Concealing Talismans.
Xiao Ran did not stand on ceremony and put it away.
The disciple opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.
He then led the way.
When they arrived at the sect’s great hall, it was filled with guests.
All the famous and influential people in the Qing Province had arrived. Even Shen Yiming and Little Zhou had arrived.
However, they were sitting right at the back. This was specially arranged by Huang Feng as a way to humiliate them.
“You’re here, my brother,” Huang Feng greeted him warmly.
He had changed his clothes and was wearing a red wedding robe. There was a big red flower attached to his chest, giving him a very festive air.
“Hmm.” Xiao Ran acknowledged with a nod of his head.
Huang Feng pointed at him and gave an introduction. “This is my sworn brother, Tiger Acuminous, a Level 10 Grand Master.”
As he spoke,
he appeared very smug and cast a provocative gaze on everyone present.
The people present were not ordinary people, but even the highest level experts did not surpass Level 10 of the Grand Master Realm. When they heard his words, their expressions changed drastically as they looked at Xiao Ran in disbelief.
At the same time, they were also secretly very worried.
The Yellow Sand Sect’s current strength was very terrifying, and on top of that, they now had a Level 10 Grand Master to support them.
In the future, what if they extended their hands into the Qing Province to snatch their business?
There was no room for them to think.
Huang Feng’s merciless gaze locked onto Shen Yiming.
“Due to some trivial matters, many disciples of my Yellow Sand Sect were arrested by your Divine Sword Guards. Lord Shen, you were sent by the Imperial Court. What are your views on this matter?”
When the guests heard that,
they all turned their attention to Shen Yiming.
Since this matter did not concern them, the guests couldn’t care less and they simply sat back to enjoy an exciting free show.
Some fence-sitters who bullied the weak and feared the strong saw that the Yellow Sand Sect had a strong backer and were anxious to flatter them.
“Sect Master Huang is right. Since it’s a trivial matter, Lord Shen, why don’t you let them all go?”
“Today is Sect Master Huang’s wedding. It’s so rare for him to speak up. Surely you will grant him this request on his account, Lord Shen?”
“My lord… ” Little Zhou was furious and was about to speak.
Shen Yiming quickly stopped him and shook his head, signaling to him not to speak and to let him handle everything.
Facing everyone’s gaze, Shen Yiming was very calm and did not panic at all. “Since Sect Master Huang has spoken, I’m not one who does not appreciate favors.”
“I knew that Lord Shen would not disappoint me.” Huang Feng nodded in satisfaction.
He signaled to Xiao Ran with his eye, hinting at him to show off his muscles.
Xiao Ran smiled and only erupted with the aura of a Level 10 Grand Master.
A monstrous pressure enveloped the great hall. Looking at the group of guests, he said playfully, “You’re all very good.”
He then retracted his aura.
Huang Feng lowered his voice and asked, “Where’s Big Brother Lei?”
“He’s a little tired from traveling and he’s resting in the back now. He will come over later,” Xiao Ran said.
“All right.” Huang Feng nodded with understanding.
Xiao Ran sat on the first seat on the left and closed his eyes to rest.
Little Zhou lowered his voice and asked indignantly, “My lord, are you really going to release them??
Shen Yiming said, “How is that possible? This is called feigning civility. There are only the two of us now. Although our people are lying in ambush outside, we have no chance of winning if we get into a fight now. We’ll find a chance to use the Spirit Calming Powder and then capture them all in one fell swoop.”
“Won’t it damage your credibility?”
“You’re still too inexperienced! How much is credibility worth? That’s just for show in front of the weak,” Shen Yiming reminded him.
“My lord, you’re indeed wise. I understand now.” Little Zhou replied as realization hit him.
“By the way, why hasn’t Brother Xiao arrived after so long?”
“He should be chasing after that demon! Don’t worry, your Brother Xiao is very strong,” Shen Yiming said.
The bride arrived at that moment.
Two maids helped her in from outside.
There were even people scattering red rose petals on the ground before her.
Huang Feng walked over quickly and stopped in front of her. He waved his hand and the two maidservants retreated. As he held the bride’s hand, his face was bursting with excitement and joy.
Little Zhou curled his lips in disdain. “You’re already so old, yet you’re still so shy about getting married.”
“Didn’t your father arrange a blind date for you?” Shen Yiming asked out of the blue.
Little Zhou became speechless. When he recalled his father’s personality, he was afraid that when he returned this time, he would be chased all over the streets again.
“My brother, you will be our witness,” Huang Feng proclaimed loudly.
“All right.” Xiao Ran stood up.
He went to the center pedestal seat and sat down.
With a shout from the matchmaker, “First bow to heaven and earth!”
they bowed to each other.
“Tea offering to your brother.”
They were supposed to pay respects to their parents. Huang Feng’s parents had been dead for many years. The bride’s identity was still a mystery so they had no choice but to change the rules a bit to account for the lack of family members.
The two of them brought the tea to Xiao Ran.
He took a simple sip as a token, and managed to pass this round.
Next the matchmaker continued, “The ceremony is complete. Proceed to the bridal chamber.”
Huang Feng held the bride’s hand and looked at Xiao Ran. “I’ll leave this place to you, my brother!”
