Chapter 866: Bride Stealing

The old beggar fled with extreme speed; his feet resembled two fiery wheels, allowing him to rush out of the city and into the clouds.

Young Lord, all the wedding gifts have been stolen. An attendant entered the hall and kneeled on the ground, He kept on wiping sweat off his forehead with his sleeve.

The prodigies couldnt help but laugh, thinking that Xiao Tianyue was awfully unlucky today. The seniors from Firmaments must have been wrong in picking the auspicious date.

Today must have been the worst date for a wedding!

Daring to steal in Firmaments? You court death. The sword-wielding senior released an upward horizontal slash.

The sword energy turned into a heavenly river that engulfed half the sky.

Pluff! Blood gushed from the explosion.

Hmph, thats the result of provoking us. The senior pulled back his sword while floating in the air, looking quite cool and domineering.

Damn, scared the hell outta me. The old beggar got out from the pile of meat, completely covered in feathers.

So it turned out that the senior had only killed a spirit bird earlier. The beggar used the bird as a shield and managed to avoid the slash. He then ran the hell away, successfully this time.

The cultivators from Firmaments were furious. Even a copy of their divine sword wasnt enough to stop this thief. They could only watch the guy run away with their treasures.

Meanwhile, Feiyun used his dragon-phoenix robe and hid his aura completely. He stood on top of the palace undetected. He found the old beggar quite amusing, daring to steal from Firmaments City. He probably would have gotten away unscathed if it wasnt for me.

The audience was truly amused, thinking that today was a great show.

Meanwhile, those from Firmaments and the Meng had awkward expressions. Xiao Tianyue himself still put on a smile, albeit a forced one.

These people are so rude, to say ridiculous stuff during this joyous wedding. Liu Suzi smiled while waving her paper fan.

The attention returned to the bride standing at the center. They started pondering.

Quite annoying indeed. The young lord is a righteous person and Miss Meng is as pure as jade, true gold fears no fire. The oldest son of Crimsonwood Domain flattered. [1]

However, the young prodigy from Lifeless Palace didnt hold back: Miss Mengs reputation has been harmed with the events today, its not good for the young lord if we dont examine this. People will keep on gossiping otherwise.

I dont think thats proper, its also disrespectful to Miss Meng. A close friend of Xiao Tianyue said.

No need to say more, I and the young lord have no feelings for each other indeed. My lover is not him. He did come by... last night... but I didnt agree. Meng Lingyan who has been keeping quiet finally spoke.

Though Feng Feiyun brought Meng Taiyue into her room last night, the two didnt do the deed. She knew that her clan would suffer a calamity if she were to lose her virginity. She loved him but she needed to be considerate of her clan.

The hall became quiet for the second time. Xiao Tianyues face turned cold while the ancestors of the Meng started trembling, nearly dropping to the ground.

Who is he? Liu Suzi slowly walked over to Meng Lingyan and asked. Her bright eyes instill powerful pressure.

Lingyan couldnt handle this and got on her knees: Im sorry, Ancestors, I cant marry the young lord since I, I love Taiyue.

The ancestors from the Meng vomited blood, looking as pale as can be. They had the urge to kill Meng Lingyan for being so stupid - to say something like this in public.

Even if she didnt do anything with that servant, the young lord was still humiliated. This put him in a tough position and the Meng was about to be truly unlucky.

The three seniors of Firmaments were livid. Their hands trembled with rage. If it wasnt for the audience, they might have killed everyone from the Meng just now. The city has lost all face today.

Liu Suzi touched Lingyans cheeks and helped her up. She then smiled and said: Youre a model for all women, to have the courage to pursue love, admirable indeed. Gentlemen, please hear me out, I still dont think this is the young lords fault since he didnt know that Miss Meng already has someone she loves. The blame is on the seniors of the Meng, they wanted more influence and forced Miss Meng into this marriage.

Bam! Bam! The Meng ancestors were sapped of their strength and got on their knees.

Tianyue immediately utilized this chance and said: Your clan is truly despicable, daring to trick me. Ive married more than one hundred women but they were all willing. This is the first time.

It is our mistake, we didnt notice it... The Meng ancestors became afraid.

The young prodigy from Lifeless suddenly said: No, Young Lord, you pulled her hand earlier and said that you two were willing and deeply in love, how do you not know that she already has someone else in her heart?

Tianyues expression soured, realizing that this was a trap from Liu Suzi. It was too late to say anything else.

The members of the audience were top cultivators with superior intelligence. They knew what was going on and tried their best to stop laughing. They stared at Tianyue as if he was an idiot.

Tianyue has never hated someone so much before. He glared at Liu Suzi while thinking: This damned bitch, she wants to ruin my reputation.

Liu Suzi stood there with a smile, acting as if this has nothing to do with her.

Tianyue realized that Meng Lingyans words earlier might have been forced out of her. This was all part of the plan.

An old man from Firmaments helped Tianyue by declaring: Young Lord, you seem tired, please go rest. Men, bring these Meng to the stage and decapitate them.

The Meng ancestors smashed their forehead on the ground while begging for forgiveness. Alas, they were still dragged away.

Two white-robed cultivators also wanted to take Meng Lingyan. However, spatial ripples emerged around her, culminating in a worm-hole pulling her in. Feiyun also leaped into the worm-hole right afterward.

This happened in the blink of an eye but some experts reacted fast. They aimed to destroy the worm-hole.

Stay! Tianyue despised Meng Lingyan for humiliating him. How could he let her escape and run off with her lover?

He unleashed a palm strike containing images of mountains and rivers, looking like a world descending.

See ya! Feiyun laughed.

A spear tip came out from the other side of the worm-hole and contested the palm strike.

Boom! Tianyue was pushed back; his shirt sleeve was cut off and fell to the ground.

The worm-hole entrance started closing.

Youre not getting away! Tianyue took out a sword copy and channeled all of his energy into it. The sword became sharp as he unleashed a thrust to destroy the spatial path.

During the crumbling of the path, Feiyun grabbed Lignyans hand and summoned his spirit vessel. It became an eternal ship as the two landed on the deck.

Dont worry, Taiyue told me to save you. Feiyun used his Infinite Spirit Ring to control the Dragon-horse Diagram channeling the ship. It became faster and traveled through chaotic space.

He made sure to turn around and send out a loud message: Young Lord, Ill be taking the bride now.

Tianyues lungs nearly exploded from anger. He ordered: Go invite Sir Canghai to figure out their coordinates, send 30,000 troops to capture them, dead or alive. I need their corpses as proof.

Meanwhile, Liu Suzi stroked her chin, astonished. Cant look down on this half-demon, actually getting away with another person in front of Xiao Tianyue.
