A shout of "Wait!" shocked the entire audience.

A person walked through the doorway and slowly approached the wedding stage. With each step, the ground trembled slightly.

The banquet table began to hum, melon seeds were scattered all over the floor, wine glasses bounced, and the fine wine inside splashed rapidly.

"It's you, Lu Lingyun!"

The newcomer was dressed in a striking red outfit, with a dignified appearance and powerful physique; he was definitely muscular when undressed but slim when clothed.

This person is none other than Lu Lingyun, the number one young generation member of the Lu family in Fanyang Realm, a true prodigy.

Today's red attire suits Zi Yue perfectly, suggesting she might replace Cui Xiangru.

Both the Palace Master Wang Hongyuan and Deng Xian'er were startled, wondering to themselves how it could be this kid.

"Where did Lanhua go? It's so late, why isn't he coming to take his wife home?"

Suddenly, a man stood up from a table in the audience. It was Lu Gaoyang, the head of the Lu family in Fanyang.

"Ling Yun, what's wrong with you? Get back here!"

Lu Lingyun shook his head and said, "Father, I have been in love with Ziyue for more than just a year or two. We have known each other for four hundred years."

Looking at Zi Yue, Lu Lingyun said softly, "Zi Yue, do you still remember the scene when we met by Taiming Lake four hundred years ago?"

"Of course I remember!"

Zi Yue said softly, "That day I was picking lotus seeds by Taiming Lake, and you came walking on the lotus leaves from the lake and picked a few lotus pods for me, right?"

"good!"

Lu Lingyun was overjoyed, "Ever since we met by Taiming Lake, I have no eyes for any other woman. I only want to be with you!"

"I have come here today to take you away. Are you willing?"

Zi Yue fell silent. She genuinely felt that Lu Lingyun was a romantic, but she didn't want to hurt him.

"You can take me with you, but I absolutely cannot stay with you. I already have someone I love!"

Zi Yue originally thought that these words would stop him, after all, there were many powerful people here, and he alone could not take her away.

Unexpectedly, Lu Lingyun uttered arrogant words, "Fine, I'll take you away today, and I'll wait for you to change your mind!"

Zi Yue remained silent.

Everyone was speechless.

With so many Venerables present, even though Lu Lingyun himself was a Venerable, trying to take one person away from so many powerful figures was nothing short of a pipe dream.

Are the esteemed figures of both families merely figureheads?

Cui Xiangru stepped forward, blocking Zi Yue behind him, and said in a deep voice, "You want to take him away? No way!"

"Brother Lu, I advise you to leave, or you'll regret it!"

Seeing that his son was still obsessed, Lu Gaoyang roared, "You unfilial son, get out of here, or I'll break your legs!"

At the farthest table, Qin Cheng whispered, "Brother Lu, your older brother is too reckless."

There are no fewer than ten Venerable Ones from the Cui and Tantai families here. Is your eldest brother really going to fight them all by himself?

Lu Yuan, holding his forehead, said awkwardly, "How could this be? What's wrong with my brother? What's gotten into him? How could he do something like stealing a bride!"

Tan Xueqing replied, "Your brother is a man of true feelings; I think highly of him!"

Lu Lingyun said in a deep voice, "Today, no one can stop me from taking Ziyue away!"

"How dare you!"

Lu Gaoyang was about to make a move, but Long Aohai pressed his shoulder down.

“Patriarch Lu, this is a matter for the young man. Let him handle it himself. Who hasn’t done something spectacular when they were young? Don’t you think so?”

Long Aohai turned to the other family heads and asked, "Fellow family heads and sect leaders, what do you think?"

Everyone initially thought Long Aohai's words were absurd, but considering that he was of dragon lineage and regarded such worldly etiquette as worthless, they didn't bother arguing with him.

Seeing that everyone remained silent, Lu Gaoyang took it as tacit agreement and sat down angrily, mentally preparing himself for his son to be severely beaten.

Cui Haihang snorted, "Patriarch Lu, since you don't care about your son, then I won't be polite!"

With a glance, two people appeared on the left and right. They were the two Venerable-level guest elders of the Cui family, both of whom had lived for tens of thousands of years and had cultivation at the mid-stage of the Profound Rank.

“Young Master Lu, please return!” said Guest Elder Jiang Yin.

"Don't force us to take action!" Guest minister Liu Xun echoed.

Lu Lingyun snorted, "Then let's do it!"

With a single punch, countless fist shadows scattered, striking towards the two guest elders.

With a single, simple strike, Jiang Yin and Liu Xun shattered the fist's shadow.

However, the clash of forces created a violent storm that swept across the entire courtyard.

Fortunately, everyone acted together and used their protective energy to prevent the tables and chairs from being overturned, but sword marks were already visible on the ground.

Lu Lingyun dodged past and unleashed another punch, his terrifying Yuan energy condensing on his fist, making it even more powerful than the previous punch.

Jiang Yin swept his sword horizontally, the blade striking Lu Lingyun's fist, but a crisp sound was heard.

After the energy storm, Jiang Yin was knocked back, breaking the pillar behind him, but Lu Lingyun was unharmed.

Everyone was astonished.

Although the longsword in Jiang Yin's hand was a low-grade immortal sword, it was still an immortal artifact. When it struck Lu Lingyun's hand, it had no power whatsoever.

Jian Yunfei whispered, "Brother Lu, was the Great Vajra Hand that your elder brother just used?"

Lu Yuan nodded, "That's right, the Great Vajra Hand is the top secret technique of my family. It can be used for both fists and palms, and the fists and palms are made of Vajra. Its power is no less than that of a celestial weapon!"

"Amazing, amazing!"

Lu Lingyun threw a punch straight at Liu Xun's head, but the latter blocked it with a knife.

Inside the courtyard, the three Venerable Ones fought back and forth.

In particular, Lu Lingyun wielded the Great Vajra Hand with tremendous power, managing to hold his own against two mid-stage Venerables despite only being at the early stage of the Profound Realm.

Not far away, even though Lu Gaoyang was still angry with his son, he couldn't help but worry about his safety, after all, he was his own son.

Tantai Zhenyu remained silent. Although he was very angry, this was, after all, Cui family territory, and he couldn't retaliate.

Cui Haihang frowned, never expecting that his young junior would become more and more courageous in battle.

"Xiangru, send him away!"

Cui Haihang was unwilling to let the elders of the aristocratic families take action, so he sent the younger Cui Xiangru to the stage, which would be a good opportunity to test his son's strength.

"Yes, Father!"

After receiving the order, Cui Xiangru summoned a silver spear, its light blazing brightly, and slashed towards Lu Lingyun's skull.

Lu Lingyun's expression was solemn. He crossed his arms, and his arms were covered with a layer of transparent Yuan energy, which blocked the silver spear that was coming down. However, he was knocked back several feet.

A deep ditch, knee-deep, was dragged out from under his feet.

The courtyard of the Cui family was paved with hard yungang stone, which ranks second in terms of rock strength in the Tianyu region, demonstrating the strength of Cui Xiangru's attack.

"I'll let you taste the Nine Heaven-Shattering Techniques of the Cui family!"

The Heaven-Shattering Spear Technique is said to be able to pierce the sky when mastered to its peak, but this has not yet been verified.

The silver spear in Cui Xiangru's hand was no ordinary weapon either; it was a mid-grade immortal artifact, the Cloud Piercing Spear.

With the Cloud Piercing Spear combined with the Heaven-Shattering Spear Technique, Cui Xiangru seemed to have divine assistance, and his prowess even overshadowed the two guest ministers.

Although Lu Lingyun was powerful, he was attacked by the three Venerables and lost his previous offensive momentum, and was now mostly on the defensive.

Zi Yue frowned. "Brother Lu, you are no match for them. You should retreat quickly to avoid getting hurt!"

"I will not leave until I take you away today!"

Lu Lingyun endured dozens of rounds, but was soon injured, with several bloody holes on his body, yet he still persisted.

"Break!"

Cui Xiangru shouted and unleashed a move called Half Moon Red, slashing fiercely at Lu Lingyun.

In the critical moment, a blade of energy struck, shattering Cui Xiangru's Crescent Moon Crimson.

"Huh? Who is it?"
