Chapter 505: Long time no see!
In the back garden of the Liu family mansion, there are green pines, cypresses and bamboos, among which there are rugged rocks, century-old vines entwined among them, and hundreds of flowers in full bloom, exuding fragrance, embellishing the entire back garden with lush greenery.
The spring water flowing down from the waterfall on the back mountain passes through the center. The gurgling spring water is clear and the bottom is visible. It gathers into a small lake in the center. The waves in the lake reflect golden scales, adding a lively atmosphere to this lush and green scenery.
Among the swaying bamboo shadows, there appeared an exquisite pavilion. The pavilion was very delicate, with carved beams and painted buildings. The elders of the two families were sitting in the pavilion, and they were discussing the marriage.
Liuyun and Xiang Zijin stood by the lake, Liuyun looked up at the sky, Xiang Zijin looked down at the lake, neither of them said a word.
"Look, Liuyun is handsome and elegant, and Zijin is elegant and beautiful. They are really a match made in heaven." Liuyun's mother smiled with her hands covering her mouth, her eyes full of joy. It seems that she likes this daughter-in-law very much.
Everyone laughed, except Xiang Zijin's mother Li Shuangning, who smiled perfunctorily with a hint of sadness between her brows.
In comparison, Xiang Zijin's father Xiang Mo was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. It can be said that he was the one who facilitated this marriage. When he saw Liu Yun pursuing his daughter, he planned for the two families to get married. Now that his wish has come true, he is naturally very happy. With the power of the Liu family, the influence of the Xiang family will definitely rise to a higher level, Xiang Mo thought.
"Okay, then the wedding date will be set on this day in January. That day is a rare auspicious day in the past ten years, suitable for marriage. It is a great day." Xiang Modao.
"Okay, I have no objection." Although Liu Canghai is a very serious person, today is his son's big day, so he couldn't help but smile a little more.
"That's settled then. As long as we go out and inform everyone, the marriage will be settled." Xiang Mo was very happy.
There were loud laughters from the pavilion, but it was very quiet on this side of the lake.
Hearing her father's happy laughter in the pavilion, Xiang Zijin's body trembled. She closed her eyes in pain and tried hard to force back the tears.
"Don't you want to?" At this time, Liuyun spoke, breaking the silence.
Xiang Zijin forced a smile and shook her head, "No, I just feel a little sad about leaving my parents."
Liuyun smiled slightly, "You don't have to force yourself, Qiang. I know you are not mentally prepared yet. You still have him in your heart."
Xiang Zijin shook her head hastily. She didn't want to hurt Liuyun's heart because of her. After all, he was innocent. "No, you really misunderstood. I am really sad because I have to leave my parents. After all, I have never left them for twenty years. Now I have to get married and leave them. I am just a little sad."
"It's okay, I don't mind." Liuyun's smile suddenly turned cold, "I don't mind that you have him in your heart, and I don't mind whether you have me in your heart or not. In fact, you don't have much weight in my heart."
"You...what did you say?" Xiang Zijin looked at Liuyun in astonishment.
"You heard it very clearly. I said that I don't care about you. I care about him!" Liuyun's face was ferocious. "I am a genius, but I am suppressed by him. Do you know the pain in my heart? He is the much-anticipated Tianmen Saint Body, and I am just the inconspicuous second-in-command. He is younger than me, but I have to call him big brother. He has the best teachers, the best resources, and is the focus of everyone's attention. In your eyes, there is only Shiyan, Shiyan, and Shiyan! What about me? Have you ever seen me in your eyes? He is just luckier than me and was born in one of the twelve major immortal gates. What qualifications does he have to be called the Tianmen Saint Body? And as for me, I can say without hesitation that the reputation of my Liu family has become noticeable because of me! Does Shiyan have the ability I have?"
Xiang Zijin was panicked. In her impression, Liuyun was always polite. Where had she seen Liuyun like this before? "Liu...Liuyun, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"What's wrong with me? I'm fine!" Liuyun's face became more and more ferocious. "Fortunately, God is fair. Shi Yan was proud for a few days before he fell. I ascended to the position that should have been mine, but I deserved it! Now I have status, fame, and beauty, but I don't have your heart! But your heart is no longer important, because I found the best way to attack him, and that is to get you, the one he loves the most! Don't you think this method of attack is good?"
"What are you talking about? Shi Yan is already dead. What's the point of doing this?"
"Dead? Shi Yan is dead? No, no, no, he is not dead! He is alive and well. Maybe he is in Tianchi Region, in Black Mountain, and he will see with his own eyes that I am engaged to his beloved woman. You can also see if he will stand up for you. If he does, then he really deserves to die." Liuyun leaned over and whispered in Xiang Zijin's ear.
Xiang Zijin was extremely surprised that Shi Yan was not dead. Although she often dreamed that he was not dead, she could not help but burst into tears when she really heard the news. However, it was good that he was alive, but he could not practice at that time. Now Liuyun wanted to kill him. If he stood up, how could he resist? Xiang Zijin was not stupid, but very smart. She understood Liuyun's words at once. After Liuyun accidentally learned that Shi Yan was not dead, he took the opportunity to get close to her and then try to please his father Xiang Mo. At that time, the status of the Xiang family dropped sharply. Seeing that Liuyun had such a good impression of him, he took the opportunity to get close to the Liu family. Liuyun was naturally very happy. He performed for so many years just for today to give Shi Yan a psychological blow!
His thoughts are so deep that they are astonishing.
Xiang Zijin sneered, "Do you know what the biggest difference between you and Shi Yan is? It's in your spirit. In your eyes, the Tianmen Saint Body is great. Getting the title of Tianmen Saint Body and being praised by others is your goal. But in Shi Yan's eyes, these are not worth mentioning. In his eyes, immortals and heaven are his opponents. In the future, he will compete with immortals and heaven." Xiang Zijin glanced at Liuyun indifferently, "And you can only compete with others. This is the difference between you two."
Liu Yun sneered, "This only shows that he didn't know his own abilities, so he was punished by heaven, never recovered, and even nearly died. Now he is still a useless person."
Xiang Zijin looked at Liuyun hatefully without saying a word.
"Okay, they've already discussed the marriage, and now they just need to announce it to the public. I really want to see Shi Yan's sad face, hahahaha."
"Aren't you afraid that I will announce it to the world?" Xiang Zijin said.
Liuyun shook his head. "With your intelligence, you will not do such a stupid thing. You know the consequences. Besides, will the world believe what a woman like you says? My reputation is unprecedented and will never be surpassed. It is even better than when I first said it. Do you think they will believe you or me?"
"So you better finish this scene obediently. This will be good for both your Xiang family and me."
Xiang Zijin endured Liuyun's naked threat, "You are simply a devil!"
"Devil? No no no, if I were a devil, I would be the devil king!"
When they saw the masters coming out, there was thunderous applause in the hall, and the voices of congratulations became louder and louder.
Both the Liu family's parents and the Xiang family's parents were very happy. As long as they announced it to the outside world, today's ceremony would be a success.
Liuyun and Xiang Zijin stood in the middle, the man was extremely handsome and the woman was elegant and pure, like a lotus emerging from water, beautiful and graceful.
"What a match made in heaven!" everyone praised.
Liuyun's smile was as gentle as the spring breeze, and he clasped his fists in return.
Because of Liuyun's threat, Xiang Zijin could only respond with a faint smile.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet." Liu Canghai stood up and spoke loudly. His voice was so loud that it spread throughout the entire Liu Mansion in an instant. Everyone in the outer mountains or inner mountains could hear it clearly.
"We will set the wedding date on..." Liu Canghai announced happily.
Suddenly, before Liu Canghai could make an announcement, a terrifying aura suddenly emerged outside the hall. Everyone felt a sense of distress in their hearts, and almost everyone felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
At the same time, a dazzling golden light passed through the hall, bringing with it a loud noise like thunder.
The tall gate tower of the hall was pierced by the golden light and collapsed with a loud bang.
The hall was very big and the guests were far away from the gatehouse, so no one was hurt, but the building suffered. Wherever the golden light passed, the golden light raged and made the place in disarray.
There were symbols carved on the floor of the hall, but now there was a dent as if left by a passing dragon.
When the golden light flashed, everyone was stunned, staring blankly at the golden light hitting the center of the wall at the end of the hall.
Liu Canghai did not expect that there would be an attack on the Liu family, and he did not take any action to stop it.
In the middle of the big word "Liu" on the wall, an arrow burning with blue flames trembled slightly.
It turned out to be an arrow, burning with blue flames but trailing golden light.
There was a sudden chaos in the hall, and disciples from various sects and families came to protect important figures of their own sect.
However, these important figures were not in a hurry and looked at the direction where the arrows were flying with interest.
Outside the hall, a man in a black robe and a tear-stained mask was floating quietly in the air, holding a longbow that was also burning with blue flames.
Who is it? This question popped up in everyone's mind.
"It's him!" Xiang Zijin covered her mouth in surprise. Although it was just a quick glimpse at the time, the strange mask left a deep impression on her.
He...he turned out to be Shi Yan, no wonder those eyes looked so familiar.
Liu Canghai's face turned black. Such a thing happened on the Liu family's big day. Isn't this a blatant slap in the face of the Liu family?
Xiang Mo's face turned pale. His cultivation was not high, even lower than Liu Yun's. He was frightened at the moment and his face was very pale.
Liuyun was full of excitement. It’s here, it’s finally here. After so many years of planning, this moment has finally arrived!
"Shi Yan, I want you to know that I am the real Tianmen Holy Body!"
"Who are you? How dare you make a scene in my Liu family's mansion!" Liu Canghai snorted coldly.
Shi Yan ignored him and turned his gaze to Xiang Zijin.
Xiang Zijin's eyes were filled with tears, she was very excited, but also very worried, "Hurry up, there is a trap set up here!"
Everyone realized that it was someone Miss Xiang knew, and then a playful smile appeared on their faces. Could it be that one of Miss Xiang's mistresses came to grab the bride for her? It was none of their business, and everyone dispersed and retreated to the sides, watching the development of the situation.
Liu Canghai's face darkened even more, and he glared at Xiang Mo: "Okay, okay, Xiang Mo, you are so bold that you collude with outsiders to bully my Liu family?"
"No, no, no, my dear relative, you misunderstood, you misunderstood." He turned around and shouted angrily at Xiang Zijin, "What is going on? Don't you know that you are the daughter-in-law of the Liu family?" Looking at his anger, he was about to hit someone.
Shi Yan's eyes flashed with a fierce look. He didn't expect that Uncle Xiang was such a person. But when he thought about it, it made sense. Xiang Mo had never liked him. Xiaolili heard that although he and his father were sworn brothers, he hated his father very much. Isn't this a replica of himself and Liuyun?
Shi Yan tightened his grip on the bow.
"Why are you doing this? My daughter is already engaged and is going to get married soon. If you really like her, you shouldn't disturb her anymore." Xiang Mo said.
"Zi Jin doesn't like Liu Yun at all. If she really marries him, she will only suffer for the rest of her life. Can you bear to let her fall into this fire pit..." Shi Yan said in a deep voice.
"This is my Xiang family's business, so please don't worry about it. Besides, the Liu family is wealthy and powerful, so how can they be in pain?" Xiang Mo said, shaking his sleeves.
"Hmph, selling your daughter for fame, you really think you're a good father!" Shi Yan was furious and shot an arrow suddenly, scaring Xiang Mo so much that he sat down on the ground.
Suddenly a figure flashed in front of Xiang Mo and grabbed the arrow.
It is the flowing clouds.
Liuyun looked at Shi Yan with amusement and said, "Long time no see."
Shi Yan looked at Liu Yun coldly, "It's been a long time!"
