Bai Ying's words were undoubtedly a slap in the face to Xiao Yuyang and the Lin clan.
It was something she had never cared about before. If she hadn't needed this bamboo slip to unlock the secret treasure of the Brahma Immortal Venerable, she wouldn't have kept it at all.
At this moment, the onlookers seemed to suddenly realize what was happening.
“Yes! Bai Ying did say before that she would return the marriage certificate. It was Xiao Yuyang of the Dayan Sect who attacked her without any explanation, and didn’t even give Bai Ying a chance to take out the marriage certificate.”
"She attacked Bai Ying, so she deserved to be injured by Bai Ying. She already said she would return it; they could have just waited, but she insisted on snatching it. And she was no match for Bai Ying. She lost face! She made Lin Yuan look like a hot commodity. Who would have thought that Bai Ying didn't care about the marriage certificate at all!"
These people's words made Lin Yuan and Xiao Yuyang's faces turn pale and then red.
Xiao Yuyang simply couldn't believe that Bai Ying would hand over the marriage certificate so easily. Bai Ying must have realized she had no other choice, so she was just being stubborn!
Xiao Yuyang tilted his head back and shouted at the top of his lungs, "If Bai Ying really wanted to return this marriage certificate, then why didn't she hand it over before? Why did she have to wait until this last day! Isn't it because she couldn't bear to part with it and insisted on making excuses here! I think it's because she can't bear to part with Lin Yuan, and she's also jealous that I'm already with Lin Yuan!"
Without wasting any words, Bai Ying pointed directly at the direction where the marriage certificate was located. A white light emanated from the bamboo slip of the marriage certificate, and at the same time, a distinct mark appeared on the marriage certificate!
This is clearly a hidden key.
She walked step by step toward Xiao Yuyang, and said coldly:
"Why didn't I hand it over before? Of course, it was to find the secret treasure of my master, the Brahma Immortal Venerable! This marriage certificate is the key to that secret treasure. How could I hand it over to you if I didn't find it? Did you expect me to hand over my master's secret treasure as well?"
Bai Ying's words made everyone watching the commotion burst into laughter.
"So that's how it is. That's hilarious! She didn't return the marriage certificate before because she went to retrieve something her master left for her. The Lin family and the Dayan Sect are really something, insisting that Bai Ying can't bear to part with Lin Yuan. I'm speechless! Bai Ying doesn't even care about Lin Yuan!"
"That's right! Lin Yuan is considered decent among the younger generation, but he's far inferior to Bai Ying. He can't even compare to Murong Jin from the same sect as Bai Ying. Why would Bai Ying choose him?"
Lin Yuan looked up, staring at Bai Ying in disbelief, completely dazed. "Is...is this real?"
Only then did Xuanyuan Chen finally let out a cold laugh, step forward, and take out a Qiankun Mirror.
"I was afraid that your Lin clan would pull this trick on me, so I recorded the whole scene! Now it's just for everyone's amusement!"
Soon, the scene of the Lin clan members demanding the marriage certificate bamboo slip from Bai Ying in the Lingxiao Sect appeared in the Qiankun Mirror.
In the scene, Bai Ying clearly stated that she still needed the bamboo slips and would have to wait a while before handing them over to the Lin family.
Later, Bai Ying should have gone to Beiyuan Prefecture to retrieve the secret treasure of the Brahma Immortal Venerable. According to the timeline, Bai Ying had just returned from Beiyuan Prefecture when she was ambushed by those Nascent Soul stage experts. How could she have had time to return the marriage certificate to the Lin family?
Inside the Qiankun Mirror, Xuanyuan Chen was still shouting at the Lin family, "This bamboo slip was given to Bai Ying by the Brahma Immortal Venerable. Bai Ying can do whatever she wants with it. So what if she doesn't want to hand it over?"
It was only at this point that everyone learned the origin of these marriage certificate bamboo slips.
It turns out that it was given to Bai Ying by the Celestial Venerable Brahma!
Back then, the Celestial Venerable Brahma had done a great favor for the Lin clan. The Lin clan promised the Celestial Venerable Brahma that they would protect his successor for life and would also ensure that the best young talent in the clan would marry his successor!
Brahma Immortal Venerable truly used his own kindness to pave the way for Bai Ying!
The Lin clan received benefits from the Brahma Immortal Venerable and had already made promises to the other party, signing a marriage contract on bamboo slips.
Of course, Bai Ying can do whatever she wants with this marriage certificate. Even if she wants Lin Yuan to never marry and to remain a widow for her, that's only fair.
It's unacceptable that the Lin family would accept favors and kindness from others, only to then neglect their descendants!
Immediately, a chorus of discussion arose!
"Damn, the Lin clan is disgusting! I was wondering how they got this marriage certificate, but it turns out they got it like this. Don't they have any shame?!"
"It's disgusting. After the death of the Celestial Venerable Brahma, this is how they treat his descendants. They even publicly demanded a marriage certificate. They are ungrateful wretches! They have no conscience at all."
"That's right! Seeing that Bai Ying was dying, not only did they not help her find a way to save her, but they also kicked her when she was down. It's really too much. And Xiao Yuyang from the Dayan Sect is shameless too. Lin Yuan is already engaged, and the engagement has not been dissolved, yet he had physical relations with him, and he still has the nerve to come here and show off. It's disgusting!"
Xiao Yuyang and the Lin clan members all looked extremely grim.
Xiao Yuyang wanted to explain that she had not had any physical intimacy with Lin Yuan, but she opened her mouth and then didn't know how to explain, because she had said all of these things herself!
Xuan Yuan Chen coldly looked at them and said to the crowd around him, "You probably don't know, but back then, Immortal Venerable Brahma wanted Bai Ying to marry this Lin family boy, but Bai Ying directly refused! How could Bai Ying possibly hold onto this marriage certificate?"
Immediately, a chorus of voices of discussion and insults erupted around them.
The Lin family members blushed instantly and pulled Lin Yuan away, intending to leave.
Fortunately, they have gotten the marriage certificate back now, so it doesn't matter if people say a few things.
Let the Lingxiao Sect be arrogant for a while longer. After today, Bai Ying will be dead, and then the Lingxiao Sect will have their day to cry!
