With a red veil hanging down from her crown, Liu Zhaodi took a deep breath to suppress her nervousness and smiled calmly, "Friends from all over the world, thank you for coming to my wedding."
"Wait, shouldn't the groom be the one attending the wedding? Why is Chairman Liu showing up himself?"
"Yeah, that's ridiculous! The bride shows up before the wedding even starts!"
"Do you think the groom might have run away from the wedding?"
"Holy crap, no way! To marry someone like Chairman Liu, you'd have to be out of your mind to run away from the wedding!"
"That's not necessarily true. Everyone knows that Liu Zhaodi is a femme fatale. Marrying her might mean getting your heart stabbed in the heart one day and being sacrificed for nothing."
"That's true. But even if you get stabbed in the heart, it's not a bad deal to marry a woman like that. After all, she's already at the pinnacle of power in China. Being her male concubine wouldn't be a loss! Let alone being her man!"
Liu Zhaodi heard the incessant chatter below, but her composure remained unaffected. She simply said calmly, "The ceremony will begin after one incense stick has burned."
This was an auspicious time that had been chosen beforehand. Liu Zhaodi was also using this time as a boundary; if Jiang Yuan was late this time, she would never forgive him for the rest of her life!
As the incense was lit, the atmosphere became increasingly uncontrollable. They were waiting for the mysterious man, and of course, there were also those who wanted to watch the show, since seeing the first woman on the battlefield to have a divine position being eloped was a once-in-a-century event.
"Wait, what's wrong with this brat?!"
The Jiang family couldn't sit still any longer. There was a bunch of people waiting for him, but he just disappeared.
"I heard that a few days ago someone in Ancheng was using the Chaoyuan Chamber of Commerce's black gold card everywhere. If I'm not mistaken, that person should be Xiao Yuan!" Jiang Yunchen was also very anxious, but he could only worry helplessly, since the parties involved in the wedding had not yet made a statement.
"Damn it, why don't we check his last spending records? If this kid dares to run away from the wedding, I'll break his legs!" Jiang Yuanjun was furious. They had witnessed Liu Zhaodi's feelings for Jiang Yuan; the two were a perfect match.
A cultivator's marriage contract cannot be taken lightly. A long lifespan is enough to make people forget the fleeting excitement and romance of love. Therefore, only a partner who can support each other all the way is the most suitable. Liu Zhaodi is the most perfect candidate in every aspect.
“We have already inquired with Patriarch Liu, and he said that the last place where the Chaoyuan Chamber of Commerce Black Gold Card was used was at the Zhongzhou Hotel three days ago, and since then there have been several small-amount expenditures for dining and entertainment,” Jiang Dahai respectfully answered the questions from the patriarchs.
"You brat, I'll break his legs!"
Jiang Yunchen stood up abruptly, seemingly heading to the Zhongzhou Hotel to bring the person back.
However, at that moment, a chorus of sighs arose, because the incense that Liu Zhaodi had lit herself had reached the end of its burning process.
"call!"
Despite her calm demeanor, Liu Zhaodi was still somewhat unsettled. She was about to raise her hand to use her spatial powers to prolong the burning of the incense when suddenly the sky darkened and a soaring aura approached from afar.
"This is?"
Some looked on in alarm, while others wore solemn expressions.
Many people have doubts about Jiang Yuan faking his death. The reason why so many people who have little to do with Liu Zhaodi are present is that they want to verify the truth of the matter.
Until this aura appeared, those who were skeptical were roughly certain of one thing.
That is, the God of Slaughter has returned!
The aura rapidly approached, and the person who had been faintly visible revealed their full face. The moment their face appeared, the entire audience erupted in uproar.
Dark clouds pressed down in the sky, and thunder roared, a clear sign of impending doom.
"You brat, you're finally here!" Jiang Yuanjun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone, have you been waiting long enough?"
Jiang Yuan's voice was completely undisguised; the battlefield sensed his presence the moment it leaked out, so there was no point in hiding it.
Using feigned death to deceive the battlefield is an act that will definitely be recorded in the annals of war. What's more, the key point is that what was obtained through this deception was a divine position. If it were something else, it wouldn't be a big deal, but this divine position is one of the few treasures in the entire universe. The battlefield and even the heavenly laws of the universe will not let it go.
Since that's the case, then we can only be arrogant to the end.
"Jiang Yuan!"
Two words flashed through everyone's minds. They never expected that today's wedding would be for this god of death. If they had known this, those who came to watch the show would never have come.
After all, a saying that circulates on the battlefield is certainly true: when the god of slaughter passes by, death is the only thing that matters.
"How could I, Jiang Yuan, be absent from Liu Zhaodi's wedding!"
Leaping down from the thunder, Jiang Yuan walked step by step toward Liu Zhaodi.
"Brother-in-law, catch the battle suit!" Liu Xiuran threw the wedding dress he had prepared earlier to Jiang Yuan.
"Thanks, little brother!"
Jiang Yuan gave Liu Xiuran a thumbs up. He used to dislike the atmosphere of the Liu family, but after the last time, his opinion of the Liu family changed. They were indeed qualified to be Jiang Yuan's relatives.
"You're already planning a second wedding after your first one!" Liu Zhaodi said in a displeased tone.
Jiang Yuan smiled guiltily. As for why he was going to do it sooner or later, he could only say that Bu Yao was more or less doing it on purpose. During their last dual cultivation session, she was unwilling to stop. If he hadn't been unable to resist and asked himself honestly, the two of them probably wouldn't have been able to leave the Zhongzhou Hotel by noon.
"I'm sorry I'm late."
