“Let us feast!”
After watching them leave, King Mu let out a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. Then, he turned to Jiu’er and said, “Help the young master down to rest!”
“Young master, let’s go!”
Jiu’er walked over while still in shock. She left the banquet with a few maidservants while supporting Ye Chen. They returned to the bridal room.
On the other hand, Mu Caiwei, the bride, was greeting guests outside. It seemed like Ye Chen was the bride while Mu Caiwei was the groom.
“Seven Mysteries Mansion?”
Ye Chen took out the jade pendant. He could sense the vile aura in it, and a mocking smirk appeared at the corner of his lips, “You guys have a good plan. However, I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you.”
After saying that, he wiped away all the vile aura in the jade pendant and began to absorb the spiritual energy inside. Soon, the jade pendant turned into dust.
…
In a tavern less than ten kilometers away from the King Mu Fort, the young master of the Seven Mysteries Mansion, Li Hao, was sitting with his back straight.
A maidservant knelt before him respectfully, “Young master, this humble seized the opportunity to test him earlier. There is indeed no cultivation fluctuation in that man’s body.”
“Looks like this brat is really trash!”
The expression in Li Hao’s eyes was erratic, “This brat has taken my jade pendant. I’m afraid he won’t live for long and there’s nothing to worry about. However, what disappoints me is that this old man, King Mu, can be said to be as cunning as a fox. His words are specious but not true.”
He waved the folding fan in his hand and smirked coldly, “Fine, the martial gathering is coming. I don’t believe that your King Mu Fort won’t show your true colors!”
…
“Father, why didn’t you attack earlier?”
At the City Governor’s Mansion of Tianfeng City, Situ Yu’s expression was incomparably savage, “The King Mu Fort only has one venerable stage powerhouse, and we have Master Hao on our side. If you made a move at that time, the entire King Mu Fort would have been killed!”
At the thought that Mu Caiwei, whom he regarded as his exclusive property, had become Ye Chen’s wife and that they might have to consummate their marriage tonight, his heart sank.
“You fool!”
Situ Yun berated coldly, “Did you see that even the members of the Seven Mysteries Mansion, Blood Blade Sect, and Vile Valley didn’t make a move? In the end, it’s because they’re afraid of that Patriarch of Hell!”
At this point, he could not help but look at the black-robed elder beside him. He cupped his fists and said, “Master Hao, you’re a grade-3 Mystic Master. Your mental strength is incomparable to ours. Could you sense anything wrong with the King Mu Fort?”
“No!”
The black-robed old man shook his head expressionlessly and said, “There’s no aura of a powerhouse in the entire King Mu Fort. There are only two possibilities. The first is that the King Mu Fort has nothing to do with the Patriarch of Hell. King Mu is just holding on. The second is that the Patriarch of Hell’s cultivation has surpassed mine!”
Situ Yun’s expression changed without end when he heard that.
Similar things were happening in the Blood Blade Sect and even the Vile Valley.
…
Soon, night fell. The banquet in the King Mu Fort was still as lively as before. There were many guests, and it was very crowded.
On the other hand, a stone tablet appeared before Ye Chen in the bridal room. The stone tablet was about 0.6 meters long and was only a palm wide. It gave off an ancient aura and there was a faint divine glow. There seemed to be a mysterious engraving on it.
It was the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet that Ye Chen had obtained from the ghost ship.
It was also because of this item that Xiao Yuanjing used Luo Shuiyao and the female corpse in the ice coffin to threaten Luo Tianya and Shi Qianhan to attack him.
Ever since he had come to the Ancient Desolate Realm, he had not been trying to understand this world. He had been searching for the Earth Immortal Fruit, but he had not had the time to examine it properly.
Ye Chen secretly frowned, “This was left behind by Qin Yan, and Qin Yan was the subordinate of the ghost ship’s master. Why did he leave this to me?”
The trip to the ghost ship had given him a lot of information, especially regarding the girl Qianqian’s identity.
Obviously, Qianqian was the daughter of the ghost ship’s master, and she seemed to be some princess. As for the old madman who followed Qianqian out of the ghost ship back then…
He must be the subordinate of the ghost ship’s master. Back then, it was also because that person was deceived by Shang Santian and lured the powerhouses of Shang Santian onto the ghost ship. In the end, they harmed Qianqian’s parents and caused such a tragedy today.
“The Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet and the Ancient Desolate Realm both have the term ‘ancient desolate’. Could there be some sort of connection between the two?”
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment. He then bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet. Subsequently, he focused all his attention on it.
To his disappointment, the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet did not react at all.
“It seems like binding it with blood won’t work!”
Ye Chen raised his brows slightly and secretly guessed, “Could it be that only Qianqian can activate the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet? After all, she’s the only bloodline of that middle-aged couple!”
Just as he was about to investigate further, there was a commotion to the barrier he had set up outside the room. He immediately stored the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Realm Tablet into his storage ring.
The next moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by a weak voice, “Y-Young master, can I come in?”
It was Jiu’er’s voice.
Ye Chen said, “Come in!”
As the room was pushed open, Jiu’er walked in wearing a red dress. It looked like a wedding dress, but it was tighter than a wedding dress. It accentuated Jiu’er’s young figure.
Throughout the whole process, Jiu’er kept her head down. Her hands gripped the corner of her dress tightly, and her ears were as red as ripe grapes. She did not say a word when she entered.
Sensing her unusualness, Ye Chen said while smiling, “What’s the matter?”
Jiu’er took a deep breath in. She mustered her courage and lifted her head to look at Ye Chen. Her curled eyelashes were trembling, “Young master, young mistress said that she’s not feeling well. She asked me to s-serve you…”
She buried her head again.
It seemed like her heart was very unsettled.
‘Serve me?’
Ye Chen was stunned at first. He looked at her and was subsequently surprised.
Mu Caiwei knew that they were faking their marriage, so it was impossible for them to consummate their marriage. However, she still considered her husband’s feelings.
So she used the excuse that she was not feeling well and sent Jiu’er to be his servant? Was this a form of consolation?
Ye Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry after figuring out the reason.
At the same time, seeing that Ye Chen did not respond for a long time, Jiu’er was extremely nervous. In that instant, she felt that the room was stuffy and hot.
She knew what she was going to experience next!
However, she still could not stop feeling nervous, anxious and shy…
‘Jiu’er, oh, Jiu’er!
‘You grew up with the young mistress. She treats you like a sister. You will marry whoever the young mistress marries. This is your honor.
‘If the young master were to take you as his concubine in the future, your status in the King Mu Fort would also increase significantly!
‘Besides, didn’t you like him before?
‘Why are you scared now?!’
She clenched her fists tightly as she thought to this point. She lifted her head to look at Ye Chen after taking a deep breath in. Her eyes were as gentle as water.
“Young master, it’s getting late…
“Let me… undress you!”
