Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 374 - : Wedding
Chapter 374: Chapter 374: Wedding
This man was an officer stationed with the troops in Yunzhong City, who, upon receiving orders from Cheng Dongliang, immediately retrieved all the documentation related to Seven Swords Sect and was now delivering it to Li Xiaoyao.
After taking the documents, Li Xiaoyao thanked the man and closed the door.
As the man turned to leave, a trace of confusion lingered in his heart.
The young man looked rather young, not even thirty perhaps. He was unsure what the identity of this man was, to elicit such a serious, personal phone call from the Military Governor himself.
Li Xiaoyao leaned on the sofa, flipping through the documents in his hands.
The Seven Swords Sect had seven Elders and one Sect Leader, among whom the one with the highest Cultivation Level was the Sect Leader Fang Han, followed by the Great Elder Zhang Ye, who was in the Abstinence Realm Eighth Rank!
As for the other six Elders, their Cultivation Levels ranged from the Third Rank to the Sixth Rank of the Abstinence Realm, and were not worth considering.
Tomorrow, Li Xiaoyao would have to confront not only the Seven Swords Sect but also the Lin Family.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Lin Family might seem like a colossal entity, but in Li Xiaoyao’s view, this family, which couldn’t even compare to the Seven Swords Sect, was not even worth an ant. Should he wish it, he could obliterate them with a mere flip of his hand.
A wisp of flame rose from between his fingers, turning the documents into a pile of ash.
…
At daybreak, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
A series of Spirit Stones tightly joined together, forming a circular lotus platform from which rich Spiritual Energy slowly rose up, entering Li Xiaoyao’s mouth and nose with every breath he took.
Li Xiaoyao suddenly opened his eyes, and a glint of sharpness flitted across them. A hint of a smile played through his eyes. Just then, the lotus platform beneath him suddenly crumbled into dust, settling on the carpet.
A night of Cultivation had increased Li Xiaoyao’s combat readiness and his Spiritual Power Cultivation Level had also improved somewhat.
Brushing his finger over his clothing where no dust existed, Li Xiaoyao looked out the window, his gaze growing steadfast, “Today, whoever stands in my way, dies!”
…
Beigu Mountain, Seven Swords Sect!
Today was the joyous day of marriage for Lin Yuanyuan and Lin Langtian. To curry favor with the Lin Family, the Seven Swords Sect had sent out numerous invitations, calling upon all the Cultivators in Yunzhong City to attend.
The Family Head of the Lin Family, Lin Beize, was only eighty years old but sat personally at the Seven Swords Sect alongside the Great Elder Zhang Ye. The grandeur of today’s event stirred a surge of excitement in Lin Beize, leading him to muse privately, “My Lin Family has finally reached this day!”
A simple marriage had attracted nearly a hundred Cultivators in Yunzhong City; it was an honor the Lin Family had never experienced since its foundation.
“Great Elder, I truly thank you for today,” Lin Beize expressed his gratitude.
Zhang Ye waved his hand, saying, “Family Head Lin, you’re too kind. Your Lin Xiu and Lin Qingxuan are talents bestowed by heaven and will surely become important pillars for our Seven Swords Sect in the future. So, the affairs of your Lin Family are indeed the affairs of the Seven Swords Sect, please don’t be a stranger.”
Undoubtedly, Zhang Ye had a way with words; a mundane matter, when passed through his lips, completely changed its impact.
“Family Head Huang Hua of Yunzhong City’s Huang Family has arrived to offer congratulations!”
“Sect Master of the Glass Sect of Yunzhong City…”
Responsible for greeting the guests were Lin Feng of the Lin Family and a disciple of the Seven Swords Sect, who now stood at the entrance of the Seven Swords Sect, constantly shouting the names of the attendees as they arrived for the wedding.
Listening to the names of these influential figures in Yunzhong City, the smile on Lin Beize’s aged face grew even more evident.
“My Lin Family will rise at last!”
As guest after guest continued to arrive, the time was also fast approaching the auspicious midday hour.
At eleven-thirty, everyone had assembled.
The banquet was set up in the Inner Court of the Seven Swords Sect, with over a dozen tables laid out, each adorned with exquisite pastries and fruits, along with richly flavored and beautifully presented dishes.
These fruits, personally cultivated by the Seven Swords Sect, contained a trace of Spiritual Energy. Though they could not be compared to elixirs, ordinary people consuming them would still reap the benefits of beautification and nourishment.
The Inner Court was vast, and even with over a dozen tables set up, there was still a huge space left unused.
The wedding decor was completely traditional, with Lin Yuanyuan dressed in a bright red bridal gown, a red veil atop her head. Lin Langtian, on the other hand, wore a red Changshan, his slightly pale face betraying a twisted smile.
Lin Yuanyuan’s father, Lin Qianjun, sat with her mother on the high platform at this moment, a reluctant smile on his face, but within his eyes, there lingered a trace of sadness and anger.
Being part of the Lin Family, he felt none of the warmth that a family should provide.
It was precisely because of this matter that Lin Qianjun fully realized he was nothing more than a money-making tool for the family. What was most tragic was that in the eyes of the family, this tool was expendable.
It was a painful truth, but one Lin Qianjun had no choice but to accept and acknowledge.
Beneath the red veil, Lin Yuanyuan’s face was expressionless, her eyes showing a hint of resolution.
Lin Yuanyuan usually dressed provocatively, but she was far from being a promiscuous woman; in fact, she was extremely conservative at heart.
She followed her heart’s desire, determined to give herself to the man she loved.
Yet today, forced by her family, she was marrying a man she did not love. Lin Yuanyuan admitted to herself that she could not do this, but for the sake of her parents, she had no choice but to compromise.
At such a moment, the first image that came to Lin Yuanyuan’s mind was actually Li Xiaoyao. She suddenly remembered her birthday, when she and Lan Cai held that “toy,” asking Lan Cai who was the first man that came to her mind.
Coincidentally, the first man that came to both Lan Cai and her own mind was that same jerk.
Now, Li Xiaoyao was still the one on Lin Yuanyuan’s mind.
If one were to analyze, it was because of Li Xiaoyao that she had ended up with such a fate today.
Had he not offended Lin Changfu in the Ghost Market, she would not have found herself in this predicament.
But Lin Yuanyuan did not blame Li Xiaoyao.
“Today is a day of great joy for the children of the Lin Family…”
…
Below Beigu Mountain, Li Xiaoyao slowly raised his head, looking towards the structures at the mountain’s peak.
There lay the Seven Swords Sect.
With his feet hovering three feet off the ground, Li Xiaoyao’s body burst forth with a thunderous roar, suddenly flying towards the mountain’s summit.
…
“Thank you, fellow Daoists, for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the wedding of my Lin family’s children. On behalf of my family, I would like to thank you all.”
“And now, please welcome the bride and groom.”
As the words were spoken, Lin Yuanyuan and Lin Langtian walked in from opposite sides.
Even through the veil, what cultivator present was not of strong cultivation level? A sheer veil could hardly obstruct their sight.
“This bride is truly beautiful.”
“This young man is lucky.”
“Why do I feel like the bride doesn’t seem very happy?”
“I have the same feeling.”
Hearing the murmurs from below, the smile on Lin Langtian’s face momentarily stiffened; looking at Lin Yuanyuan in front of him, his lips twitched as he whispered low, “If you embarrass me today, after this, I will tie you up and ruthlessly ravage you.”
[I returned to my hometown during the day, so the update is a little late. Here’s the third installment, asking for recommendations and rewards.]
