Zu An's heart skipped a beat. He had previously heard Fang Biao and Fang Hu mention that some mysterious men in black had come to Yin Yang Venerable to discuss something. Those men seemed to be from Youying Tower.
At first, we thought they were after Yun Jianyue and his apprentice, but now it seems they're more likely after this kid.
So he told him this information, and then warned him, "Be careful of the Yin-Yang Dao people."
As soon as he finished speaking, he drifted away.
Keeping such a young man, who is determined to cause trouble for Youyinglou, might be useful in the future.
Jing Li was taken aback. He realized that the pressure points on his body had been released, and he never expected that the other party would let him go so easily.
Moreover, he didn't even see how they left, even though it was right in front of him.
"Truly a divine being!"
Thinking of this, he felt a surge of energy and more confident than ever before.
The Shadow Tower has such an unfathomable enemy; it is not fighting alone.
Someone seemed to be walking this way in the distance. He pulled down his hat brim and quickly disappeared into the shadows.
...
Meanwhile, inside the main hall of the Yin-Yang Path, lanterns and decorations were everywhere, and most of the important figures from the three sects and six paths of the Demonic Cult had arrived.
As the masters of this place, Venerable Yin Yang and the groom Fang Long stood at the gate to greet everyone coming and going.
Zhang Zitong hid in the shadows and observed the Yin Yang Venerable. This guy was tall and thin, with heavy eye bags and prominent dark circles under his eyes, which were obviously signs of insufficient kidney energy.
As for Hendrik Willem Van Loon, dressed in a wedding robe, his face beaming with smiles, he looked exceptionally energetic today.
"Looks like a human but looks like a dog!" Zhang Zitong muttered to herself, while also feeling a little worried, wondering why she hadn't seen the adults yet.
The task the adults assigned her was a bit too bizarre. Will things really develop as he predicted?
Then, important figures from various factions arrived one after another.
Zhang Zitong matched the intelligence gathered by the Embroidered Robe Envoy over the years with the information.
That fat guy in the yellow robe with gold coins tattooed on it must be Shen Tao Gong, the master of the Heaven and Earth Sect. He truly lives up to his reputation as a wealthy businessman; he's the one in the room who looks most like a rich man.
The handsome middle-aged man embroidered with elegant bamboo leaves should be the carefree Venerable Hua Feihua, and the jade flute hanging at his waist should be his signature weapon, "Butterfly Loves Flowers".
Hmph, what kind of weapon is a grown man good at, but he just happens to be good at playing the flute.
The one dressed in a Taoist robe and holding a whisk should be Chi Fuzi of the Hidden Demon Sect.
In addition, there were some elders and others who were among the top figures on the court's statistical list.
Zhang Zitong was thrilled, but it was a pity that she was not strong enough. Otherwise, if she could have wiped them all out, she would have made a tremendous contribution.
However, she immediately realized that she was no longer an Embroidered Robe Envoy, and couldn't help but feel saddened.
At this moment, figures from various factions of the Demonic Sect arrived one after another. Although they usually had their own struggles, on this special day, they all smiled and congratulated Venerable Yin Yang.
As for the younger disciples, their gazes toward Fang Long were somewhat unfriendly:
"This guy is actually looking all respectable today."
"He's going to marry the Holy Maiden; people are in high spirits when they're having a happy occasion."
"The saintess has always kept her distance from him, so why did she agree to marry him this time?"
"I heard that the Yin-Yang Sect supported the Heavenly Demon Sect on one condition: that their direct disciples marry each other. That must be the reason."
"That's all ancient history, who still follows that now?"
"But that's the truth, the saintess still married him."
...
Feeling the envious and jealous looks around him, Hendrik Willem Van Loon was extremely smug, thinking to himself, "You're all so jealous. Your goddess is going to become my woman today. I will definitely help you take good care of her, hahaha."
Just then, a disciple rushed over with a secret report that the Holy Maiden had been assassinated. Yin Yang Venerable's expression changed, but upon learning that Qiu Honglei was unharmed, he suppressed the matter. Regardless of the circumstances, he would marry Qiu Honglei first and make it a fait accompli.
He hurriedly dispatched another team of elderly experts to provide support.
"The Vice Leader has arrived!"
Just then, the previously noisy hall fell silent, and everyone stood up, bowing solemnly to the person who had entered.
Zhang Zitong, who was mixed in with the crowd, hurriedly looked over and saw a middle-aged man slowly walking in from outside.
With a face like jade and an extraordinary temperament, his hair was not styled in a bun, but rather naturally loose and draped down his back. He looked more like a recluse who was detached from worldly affairs than a great demon.
Seemingly sensing her gaze, Lu Sanyuan looked in her direction.
