But, the combination of qi and refinement fire would produce unparalleled power, and this was something very few people in the world knew about. Even Zhang Liju himself had only discovered it by accident and recorded it in his notes. The chances of a normal person knowing about this was next to nothing.
So, although Zhang Liju was confused, he didn't say it out in front of everyone.
"Alright, this matter ends here. You can all leave now." Zhang Liju waved his hand and dismissed the crowd.
With him saying it himself, no matter how much Dongjue disagreed with him, he couldn't do anything about it. Zheng Tianjie's death was final.
After saying that, Zhang Liju disappeared right in front of everyone's eyes. He came and went without a trace, just like a master.
According to his usual style, after disappearing, he would most likely travel the world again. Who knew how long it would be before he showed up in front of everyone again.
But, even if Zhang Liju was nowhere to be seen, since he had already said this, no one would dare disobey him. Even if Zheng Dongjue wanted to go against him, he wouldn't have the guts to do so.
Zheng Dongjue stared at Lian Xin and Tian Chan with hatred in his eyes, "Alright, since the Hall Master has forgiven you two of your sins, I can let it go, but Tian Chan and my grandson, Tianjie, had an engagement. Although he's gone now, the engagement is still valid. I want to hold a ghost marriage for them!"
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone at the scene was stunned speechless.
The so-called engagement was just something that Zheng Tianjie had been pestering Tian Chan, wanting Dongjue to help them get engaged. Until now, it was just a one-sided talk. There was no actual ceremony at all, and he had the cheek to say that there was an engagement?
Zheng Tianjie died from the explosion of the furnace, but Tian Chan, a beautiful girl, had to marry a dead man for no reason at all. Zhang Liju had just left. Zhang Liju had just left, and Zheng Dongjue was acting like a tyrant. Wasn't he a little too much?
"No, this is Chan 'er's lifelong happiness. Vice Hall Master, don't go too far!" Lian Xin hurriedly stood up and stopped him.
With her status and strength, although she was far from being able to go against Zheng Dongjue, she was still Tian Chan's master. She couldn't turn a blind eye to this matter.
"Humph, do you think you have the right to speak here? Why aren't you scramming to the side?" Zheng Dongjue's eyes flashed with a vicious glint.
Although Zhang Liju had said in front of everyone that he couldn't punish the master and disciple, if he really wanted to. There were at least a hundred ways to make these two bitches live a life worse than death, and no one could find fault with them.
Lian Xin still wanted to insist, but at this time, Tian Chan, who was behind her, gently tugged on her sleeve. "Master, there's no need. Your disciple will agree to him."
"What?" Everyone was shocked again, including Zheng Dongjue. They could not help but be slightly taken aback.
Any normal girl wouldn't agree to a ghost marriage with a dead person so easily, right? Not to mention. The so-called marriage contract that Tian Chan was carrying was a non-existent thing from start to finish.
"If that's the case, then prepare yourself- the day of the burial is the day of the marriage. According to my original plan, you should be buried alive with Tianjie to accompany him. But in order to not let the Hall Master misunderstand, I'll let you stay alive to guard his coffin. "Zheng Dongjue looked deeply at Tian Chan.
Tian Chan nodded silently. With Zhang Liju's words as a guarantee, Zheng Dongjue definitely wouldn't let her be buried with Zheng Tianjie. This was something that she had expected, and that was why she agreed to it.
Marrying a dead man in the prime of her lifetime- this was an extremely tragic thing for anyone, especially Tian Chan, who was a disciple of the Hall of Elixirs with a bright future. This was a nightmare, but in Tian Chan's eyes, this was even better.
Middle Island was the gathering place for various forces. Naturally, there were many hedonistic young masters like Zheng Tianjie. As the saying goes, beauty is the source of trouble. With Tian Chan's beauty, it was easy for her to attract trouble. Even if Zheng Tianjie died, there would be a second and a third one in the future.
Now, with the title of widow, coupled with Zheng Dongjue's influence, no one would dare to pursue and harass Tian Chan in the future.
Plus, the situation just now was very clear. If she rejected, Zheng Dongjue could find even more vicious ways to punish her and her disciple. Tian Chan might as well just agree.
As for this so-called engagement, when her strength reached a certain level in the future, she could cancel it with just a word. Just like Zhang Liju, who dared to go against his words? So the only thing she had to do now was to endure, train hard, and wait patiently for that day to come.
Zheng Tianjie's death had finally come to an end. Because of Zhang Liju's silence, Lin Yi, who was far away in the North Island, had successfully escaped. But now, he had encountered a new problem.
Because he had successfully gotten rid of Zheng Tianjie, not only did he solve Tian Chan's problem, but he also got back the ten-piece weapon set that he had lost. For Lin Yi, this trip to the Northern Island could be said to be a success. However, where there were people, there would be Jianghu, and where there would be Jianghu, there would be conflicts and killings. Especially this time, Nan Tianba and the others had also come to the Extreme North Island.
In the next few days of the auction, with Hong Zhong's support, Lin Yi could be said to have gained a lot. He got his hands on a few rare treasures. Although he couldn't tell what they were used for, at least he could be sure that the items that Lin Yi had his eyes on were not ordinary useless items. In the future, if there was a suitable opportunity, they might shine brightly.
Whatever Lin Yi had his eyes on, Yu Zhe from Nan Tianba's group also had their eyes on. It was a pity that their wealth was not on the same level as Lin Yi's backer, Hong Zhong, who was a super tycoon.
Hong Zhong wanted to repay Lin Yi wholeheartedly. Because of this, how could he easily let the things that Lin Yi had his eyes on go to someone else? Unless he met a sucker like Zheng Tianjie, otherwise, Nan Tianba and his group had no ability to compete with him at all.
"Damn it, every time I saw a treasure, it was taken away by that bastard. If I didn't guess wrong, those treasures are not only useful for the masters at the foundation establishment stage, but even for the masters at the golden core stage or higher, they should have unexpected uses. They are all good things that can only be found by luck!" Yu Zhe rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth.
