Yu Kai didn't dare pause, using all his might to execute his escape technique. The spatial laws around him surged wildly, and he moved with lightning speed, seemingly tearing space apart with illusory cracks, leaving only a blurry afterimage.
In Xuanyang Tiancheng, located in the northern border of Uranus, the entire city was immersed in celebration today because the Young Master of the Yanyang Alliance, Shen Nan, had taken a concubine. The streets and alleys were decorated with colorful lanterns, swaying in the wind, decorating the city like a dreamscape. Representatives from countless factions rushed in from far and wide to offer their congratulations, and for a moment, Xuanyang Tiancheng was bustling with activity.
In the heart of Xuanyang Heavenly City, a magnificent, splendid palace complex stood. This was the headquarters of the Yanyang Alliance. At that moment, Yanyang Alliance leader Shen Liefeng stood on the high platform of the main hall, clad in a magnificent brocade robe and crowned with a purple-gold crown. He exuded a high and vigorous spirit. He raised his glass high and spoke in a resounding voice, filled with joy: "Thank you all, my friends and family, for taking the trouble to come to our alliance and attend my son's wedding. Today, let us drink together and celebrate this auspicious day!" The audience responded with cheers, toasting their glasses, and laughter echoed throughout the palace.
Shen Nan's face was flushed at the moment, and beside him, Liu Ling, wearing a red veil, was slowly walking towards this side. The excitement in his heart was like a surging wave, almost drowning him. From the moment he first saw Liu Ling, he was deeply attracted by her beauty and secretly vowed in his heart that no matter what the cost, he would take her for himself.
Yet, despite her red veil, Liu Ling's eyes were already red and swollen from crying. Shen Nan's actions were truly despicable. To force her to submit, he even went so far as to threaten the lives of her master and fellow disciples. Isolated and helpless in this desperate situation, Liu Ling had no choice but to compromise for the safety of her family and fellow disciples, her heart filled with humiliation and indignation.
Just as the two of them entered the main hall of the high platform, a servant hurried in, looking panicked. He quickly walked over to Shen Liefeng, leaned over, and whispered something in his ear. Shen Liefeng's face instantly darkened, and the wine glass in his hand shook involuntarily, spilling the wine all over the floor.
Seeing Shen Liefeng lose his composure like this, the people from various forces who came to attend the wedding couldn't help but secretly guess what had happened that could make this usually majestic boss stunned for a moment and couldn't recover for a long time.
However, at this moment, servants from various factions also came to their masters' ears and whispered the news. Everyone who heard the news was shocked. The originally lively and cheerful scene seemed to be invaded by an invisible chill, gradually becoming solemn. Immediately, someone put down the wine glass with a solemn expression and stood up to bid farewell to Shen Liefeng. Seeing this, others also claimed that they had suddenly encountered urgent matters and needed to attend to them urgently.
At this moment, Shen Liefeng forced himself to calm down, turned around and said to the crowd, "Don't panic, everyone. I will send a message to Lord Yang in the Heavenly Court and respectfully invite the ancestor to come out of the mountain."
Li Ming, the fourth elder of Xuanbing Valley, suddenly stood up from his chair, crushing the wine glass in his hand fiercely. His face was full of viciousness, and he said viciously: "Alliance Master Shen, this Yu Kai is really bullying us too much! I will rush back to the valley and ask the ancestor to come."
"That's right! My Ling Palace will definitely share the same hatred with the Yan Yang Alliance. Even if Yu Kai is the Holy Prince, what can he do? I will go back with Elder Li and ask the ancestor to come out. If Yu Kai dares to come and make trouble, he will be humiliated!" Elder Fang Xing of the Ling Palace also stood up and expressed his opinion loudly.
"Hahahaha, everyone just relax and watch the ceremony. My son is getting married. Yu Kai is here just to add some fun to us. Can he really contend with our three ancestors on his own?" Shen Liefeng laughed loudly, as if he had already seen the scene of Yu Kai being severely humiliated, his eyes full of disdain.
"Alliance Master Shen, the two of us will go ahead and come with the ancestor later." Li Ming glanced at Fang Xing, then turned to Shen Liefeng and said.
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble the two elders. I hope you can invite your sect's ancestor as soon as possible. I will go and get the ancestor's collection of fine wine and wait for your arrival." Shen Liefeng smiled and bowed to see him off.
The two elders didn't linger for long, and quickly left with their respective disciples. Seeing Shen Liefeng's composure, and hearing the clear statements from the two major factions, the smaller factions, who had originally worried about being implicated, sat down again and continued to discuss the matter in low voices.
At this moment, upon hearing the news about Yu Kai, Liu Ling abruptly tore off her red veil and desperately attempted to flee. However, she was held back by the maids and servants around her. She struggled desperately, her heart filled with worry for Yu Kai: the ancestors of the Yanyang Alliance alone were difficult to deal with, let alone the ancestors of three families all present.
"Hmph!" Shen Nan snorted coldly upon seeing this, stepped forward and raised his hand to slap Liu Ling hard. "Pa!" The crisp sound echoed in the silent hall, and a bright red slap mark instantly appeared on Liu Ling's face. Shen Nan cursed viciously: "You bitch, you are about to marry me, but you are still thinking about someone else. Aren't you afraid that I will not care about your master's life or death? You still rely on that Yu Kai? He is just a Saint Prince with a nominal title, and he got this title by relying on his mother. Now the war in Yumoguan Pass is tense, and his mother is a great enemy of the Asia planet externally, and has offended the Heavenly Court and the Chan Sect internally. You still expect him to save you? Don't daydream!"
Liu Ling covered her red, swollen, and burning face, tears streaming down her face like a flood. She stared out the door, praying silently in her heart, hoping Yu Kai would not take this risk.
"Put the red veil back on her and bring her over to the wedding hall!" Shen Nan angrily swung his sleeves and shouted at the servants. The maids and old women rushed forward, forcibly bringing Liu Ling over and roughly putting the red veil back on her.
Upon seeing this, the Yanyang League's Grand Elder immediately braced himself, stood on the podium, cleared his throat, and presided over the threatening wedding ceremony: "The auspicious time has arrived—" He stretched out his voice, echoing throughout the hall. Despite the many changes that had just occurred, the wedding would continue under the atmosphere deliberately created by Shen Liefeng.
"Newcomers, take your positions—" He shouted loudly, his voice filled with an unquestionable majesty. Shen Nan stood there triumphantly, stretched out his hand to grab Liu Ling's arm, and pulled her to his side. Liu Ling's body trembled slightly, and she was almost unable to stand steadily due to the humiliation and grief in her heart, but under such heavy pressure, she was powerless to resist.
