At dawn, Cangfeng Imperial City was already bustling with activity. The streets of the city were filled with people, all looking into the distance, because today was the day when the only princess of the royal family was getting married. At this time, the wedding procession of Fentian Sect had already entered the city gate and was heading towards the direction of Cangfeng Imperial Palace.
That's right, the Burning Heaven Sect's wedding procession is indeed worthy of the word "magnificent". Fen Juecheng rode on a huge horse with a mane like flames, smiling and looking forward calmly. Behind him was a sedan chair with eight people carved with flying fire phoenixes. Around him, more than two thousand Burning Heaven disciples dressed in red flames formed a long team. Looking from a high place, it was like a fire dragon slowly moving towards the palace. These Burning Heaven disciples were carefully selected, and each of them was extremely extraordinary. The lowest Xuanli was also in the Spiritual Xuan Realm, and the highest Xuanli was already in the middle stage of the Earth Xuan Realm. Such a procession was extremely rare in the entire Blue Wind Empire, and could even be called shocking. Obviously, the Burning Heaven Sect, which had lost face after losing the ranking battle, seemed to intend to use this opportunity to marry the princess to once again show the world how powerful the Burning Heaven Sect was.
According to custom, Fen Juecheng's father Fen Duanhun would not accompany them, but the elders who came with them were all powerful people. There were as many as eight Tianxuan realm masters alone, and the two leading them were already in the late Tianxuan stage, two of the ten most powerful masters of Fentian Sect. These eight people were dressed in more conspicuous red clothes of burning flames, and were evenly distributed and floated above the wedding procession... The whole team exuded a palpitating aura, and even from a distance, it gave people a sense of oppression that was almost suffocating.
Even if we say that this is a team that is powerful enough to destroy the entire Blue Wind Imperial City, it is not such an exaggeration.
"Look! The wedding procession from Burning Heaven Sect is here!"
Following someone's loud shout, the crowd began to stir, and everyone stood on tiptoe, looking at the Fentian Sect's wedding procession that was getting closer and closer in the distance.
Normally, when people were watching the wedding procession, the crowd was extremely lively, but at this moment, under the shocking pressure from the Burning Heaven Sect, no one dared to shout out loud. When the procession passed in front of them, the incomparable feeling of oppression almost made their hearts jump out. Even some people with impressive strength and courage dared only whisper.
"The legendary Xuandu Xukong... there are still eight people! Could it be that these eight people are all in the Tianxuan realm?"
"Of course. The two people in the lead, the one on the left is called Fen Duancang, the younger brother of Fen Duanhun, the master of Fen Tian Sect, and the master of Lihuo Pavilion of Fen Tian Sect. It is said that his profound strength has reached the eighth level of Tianxuan Realm! The one on the right is Fen Moran, the thirteenth elder of Fen Tian Sect, whose profound strength is the seventh level of Tianxuan Realm! Even in Fen Tian Sect, they are extremely high-level figures. I didn't expect that they would accompany the young master of Fen Tian to get married this time!"
“Fen Juecheng is the future leader of the Fentian Sect. It is not an exaggeration to have such a scene.”
"As for the legendary Tianxuan Realm, I have only seen one in my life... and that was the real master of Cangfeng Xuanfu. Today, eight of them suddenly appeared! Oh my God... It's worthy of being the Burning Heaven Sect!"
“I heard about Fen Juecheng pursuing Princess Cang Yue several years ago, but didn’t Princess Cang Yue get taken down by Yun Che later…”
“It’s a pity that Yun Che died. Otherwise… otherwise, Yun Che would not have been able to defeat Fen Jue City. No matter how powerful Yun Che was, he was alone. He did not have any support from any forces behind him. Behind Fen Jue City was the huge Burning Heaven Sect.”
“That’s not necessarily true! Although Fen Juecheng is a dragon among men, what kind of person is Yun Che? He is a dragon among dragons, a legend of our Cang Feng! Fen Juecheng’s father, Fen Duanhun, also pursued Chu Yuechan in the past, but he never even saw her face, and was still taken down by Yun Che! If Yun Che is not dead, the only way for Fen Juecheng to compete with him is to rely on the strength of the Burning Heaven Sect to assassinate him, but Yun Che has the Ice Cloud Palace behind him! Both of his women are from the Ice Cloud Palace, one is the leader of the Ice Cloud Seven Immortals, and the other is the future Palace Master. If the Burning Heaven Sect wants to take action, even if it is 10,000% sure of success, it must weigh the consequences. Even if Fen Juecheng dares, Fen Duanhun may not have such courage.”
As people watched and whispered, the wedding procession of the Burning Heaven Sect came closer and closer, and at the moment of the morning hour, it accurately stepped in front of the palace gate of the Blue Wind Palace. After a simple exchange of words, the wedding procession continued to move forward, and at the same time, gongs and drums sounded, and eight lions danced, heading straight for the Lanyue Palace where Princess Cangyue was.
The emperor's bedroom.
"Your Majesty, the wedding procession from Fentian Sect has entered the palace gate and will reach Lanyue Palace in half a minute." Cang Wanhe's personal eunuch reported to him respectfully.
Cang Wanhe's complexion was now so pale that it was almost impossible to see a trace of human color. His eye sockets were sunken, his hair was half white, and his face was full of wrinkles. If Yun Che saw him now, he would definitely not recognize him as the Cang Wanhe he had seen two years ago. In the past two years, he seemed to have aged by dozens of years. Even his every breath was as difficult as that of an old man who was about to die and could die at any time.
The fire of his life was on the verge of being extinguished.
Cang Wanhe had not slept all night. When he heard the eunuch's voice, he opened his eyes with difficulty and said in a hoarse voice: "Help me up and prepare the imperial carriage. I want to go there in person... Lanyue Palace... cough cough... cough cough cough..."
After saying a few words, Cang Wanhe was coughing uncontrollably, and his face became even more frightening.
"This..." The eunuch patted Cang Wanhe's back and said with difficulty: "Your Majesty, it's still early and the wind is still cold. Your dragon body can't stand it. Her Royal Highness also specifically instructed yesterday that when the wedding party of Burning Heaven Sect arrives, she will go directly with the sedan chair. There will be no complicated ceremony, and Your Majesty does not need to be present at all."
“No… I must go.” Cang Wanhe shook his head, struggling slightly, and pretended to get out of bed: “Yue’er went far away from the imperial city to avoid Fen Jue City, so how could she… be willing to marry him… Yue’er has always been well-behaved, but she has always refused to tell me the reason for this matter… I have a feeling… If I don’t go this morning, maybe I will never see her again… Hurry up… Help me go.”
"well!"
A long sigh came from the sky, and then a middle-aged man in a gray robe, with an elegant face and a scholarly aura, landed: "Since the emperor has made up his mind, I will accompany the emperor."
"Master Dongfang!" Seeing this elegant young man suddenly appear, the eunuch quickly took two steps back, but did not show any surprise. He said respectfully: "With Master Dongfang accompanying you personally, the emperor will be fine... I will go and prepare the carriage now."
………………………………
Lanyue Palace was brightly lit at this time, with red carpets of lanterns everywhere, and even the pond was covered with bright red ribbons. These were all arranged by the Third Prince Cang Shuo himself. He had been waiting for Fen Juecheng and Cang Yue to get married for many years, so he naturally put all his heart and soul into this matter.
This time, the Fentian Sect came to pick up the bride, and Cang Shuo had been waiting in front of the Lanyue Palace for a long time. When he saw the Fentian Sect's team arriving, he immediately rushed to greet them. After greeting Fen Juecheng, he personally led the team in front.
Fen Juecheng was dressed in red, with a red flower on his chest, flames on his shoulders, and a crimson fire feather crown on his head. He was extremely handsome and had an aura that made Cang Shuo, the prince, look far inferior to him. The palace maids' hearts beat faster when they saw him.
The wedding procession of Burning Heaven Sect was lined up in front of Lanyue Palace. All the guests invited by Lanyue Palace were also present. However, there were only a few guests. At a glance, apart from dozens of palace maids and a dozen eunuchs, there were only a few people from Cangfeng Xuanfu... Qin Wushang and Qin Wuyou were among them. There was also another person, an old man named Mu from the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce who was in charge of medicinal materials trading.
Under Cang Yue's instruction, Lan Yue Palace did not prepare any complicated welcoming ceremony. The Burning Heaven Sect's team had already arrived and was ready. The next step was to wait for Princess Cang Yue to appear.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Following a long shout, a golden dragon carriage slowly arrived, surrounded by dozens of golden guards, and landed in front of the Burning Heaven Sect team. Fen Juecheng jumped off his horse, walked quickly to the front of the carriage, bowed and said, "Juecheng greets the emperor."
"Hmph!" Cang Wanhe did not open the curtain, and snorted lightly: "Today is just the wedding reception, you and Yue'er haven't performed the sworn brotherhood ceremony yet, calling me father is too early."
Fen Juecheng was not angry at all, and smiled calmly and said, "Father is teaching me that it was Juecheng who was rude."
At this moment, the gate of Lanyue Palace slowly opened, and Princess Cangyue, wearing a phoenix crown and a bridal robe, walked out slowly, supported by two palace maids. She was dressed in red and was as gorgeous as the rising sun. In an instant, she took away all the colors between heaven and earth and attracted all the amazed eyes.
“Hahahaha!” Seeing Cang Yue appear, Cang Shuo started laughing first and spread his hands towards Fen Juecheng: “Young Sect Master Fen, please come in.”
Fen Juecheng nodded, smiled, and walked towards Cang Yue in a graceful manner. He stood in front of her and extended his hand to her.
Since it was a wedding, it was natural for Fen Juecheng to help Cang Yue into the sedan chair, but Cang Yue did not react at all, as if she did not see the hand he extended at all, and instead asked coldly: "Where is the Burning Soul Flower I wanted?"
Fen Juecheng smiled slightly, clapped his hands, and said, "Present the betrothal gift."
More than 30 Fentian disciples came forward at the same time, each holding a huge box in their hands. The boxes were placed side by side and then opened at the same time. Suddenly, the gorgeous brilliance of jewelry and the fragrance of high-grade medicinal materials filled the sky above the entire Lanyue Palace. A large number of exclamations rang out, and even figures like Qin Wushang were amazed... This betrothal gift from Fentian Sect is priceless! Even marrying the daughter of the royal family seems a bit exaggerated.
