It could be said that almost all the experts above the Dao King Realm of the Celestial Equal Sect were present. Apart from them, there were also the young geniuses.
Nearly a thousand people had gathered in the main hall. They were chatting and drinking while waiting for the engagement ceremony to begin. However, compared to the older generation, the younger generation's geniuses all had ugly expressions on their faces. However, they did not dare to act out.
As long as one was a disciple of the Celestial Equal Sect, there was no one who didn't admire Gu Lingyao. Needless to say, her looks and talent went without saying. Moreover, Gu Lingyao had a Half-saint father. If one could get Gu Lingyao, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that one would soar to the sky.
Because of this, many disciples admired Gu Lingyao, especially the young geniuses present. But now, the goddess that they had been protecting had been taken by someone else. Moreover, it was a guy who came out of nowhere. How could they not be angry?
However, they had been warned by their respective masters beforehand that no matter how angry they were, they weren't allowed to cause trouble today. As a result, these young geniuses were naturally suppressing the anger in their hearts.
As everyone waited, Xiao Chen was finally brought out of the main hall by Tian Guochuan. At the same time, Gu Qi's figure appeared out of thin air on the main seat in the main hall.
When Gu Qi appeared, the elders and deacons below him stood up and bowed. "Greetings, Sect Master."
"Haha, there's no need to be so polite. Today is the engagement of my daughter, Gu Lingyao, and Xiao Chen. There's no need to be restrained. You must have a few drinks." Gu Qi laughed heartily in the face of everyone's greetings.
After disappearing for three days, Gu Qi finally appeared. Upon hearing Gu Qi's words, the elders also smiled and congratulated him. "Congratulations to the Sect Master for getting a good son-in-law."
"Haha, good, good …"
The atmosphere was very lively. However, no one knew what everyone was thinking behind the smiles.
Gu Qi's appearance meant that the engagement ceremony had officially begun. Xiao Chen, who was outside the main hall, walked slowly into the main hall accompanied by Tian Guochuan.
Although he said that he was accompanying Xiao Chen, he was actually guarding him. According to Gu Qi, he was preventing Xiao Chen from running away.
Moreover, just a moment ago, Xiao Chen was taken to a room beside the main hall by Tian Guochuan and forced to change into a bright red robe.
This was the first time in his life that he had been stripped naked by a man. Moreover, it was an old man. Although this old man didn't do anything to him, Xiao Chen was extremely unhappy in his heart. He thought fiercely, "Old man, remember this. One day, if I don't see you strip naked and throw you onto the Tianqi sect's square, I won't hand you over to Xiao Chen."
He was dressed in a long red robe, but his expression was like that of a wronged wife. He walked into the main hall. The moment Xiao Chen appeared, everyone's eyes naturally focused on Xiao Chen.
The experts of the older generation were curious, while the young geniuses of the younger generation were spitting fire from their eyes. Facing everyone's gazes, Xiao Chen wanted to shout, "Damn it, I didn't do it willingly. Why are you all looking at me like that?"
He was extremely depressed. However, the moment Xiao Chen entered the main hall, he found that his whole body was instantly enveloped by an inexplicable force.
Under this force, Xiao Chen couldn't control his body at all. His mouth couldn't speak, and his movements seemed to be controlled by someone.
Only his eyes could still move according to his will. He looked at Gu Qi who was sitting on the main seat. Xiao Chen was sure that this was the doing of that old man, Gu Qi. The force that enveloped him was the power of laws, and the only one present who could use the power of laws was Gu Qi, a half-step Saint expert.
Of course, Xiao Chen didn't know that Gu Qi wasn't a half-step Saint expert, but a true Saint expert. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a half-step Saint expert to control a person's body without anyone noticing.
After manipulating Xiao Chen step by step to the center of the main hall, Gu Qi laughed as if nothing had happened. "Ha ha, Xiao Chen's son-in-law, after today, you and I will be a family. I hope that you will treat Ling Yao well in the future. Well, ask Ling Yao to come out."
Gu Qi didn't give Xiao Chen a chance to reply, and answered his own question. Seeing this, Xiao Chen simply wanted to cry, but had no tears to shed. What a trap, what an old trap. Why don't you ask me first if you have the ability?
If Gu Qi could ask Xiao Chen for his own opinion, Xiao Chen would definitely tell him loudly that he didn't want to. Unfortunately, Gu Qi obviously didn't intend to do so.
Perhaps it was because Gu Qi wanted to guard against Xiao Chen, but he had simplified the engagement ceremony a lot.
Very soon, Gu Lingyao, who was wearing a long red dress, walked in accompanied by several maids. Because it was not a wedding, Gu Lingyao did not wear a phoenix coronet, a red veil, or a red veil.
Gu Lingyao came to Xiao Chen's side and glared fiercely at Xiao Chen. However, when she looked at Xiao Chen, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Gu Lingyao's eyes.
The two of them stood side by side. Looking at Gu Lingyao, all the young geniuses present wanted to beat their chests and stamp their feet. They looked up to the sky and sighed, "Alas, the heavens are blind. My goddess."
However, because their master was beside them, these guys didn't dare to make the slightest move.
Looking at Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao, Gu Qi shouted loudly, "Bring the wine."
Then, two maids served two cups of wine to the two of them. At the same time, Gu Qi continued, "After drinking this cup of wine, the marriage between the two of you is set. We'll find an auspicious day to get married in the future."
Without giving Xiao Chen any chance, as soon as Gu Qi finished speaking, Xiao Chen's body began to move uncontrollably. First, he saluted Gu Lingyao. Then, he raised his head and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
In the face of the power of the laws, Xiao Chen didn't have the slightest ability to resist. He couldn't even form a thought.
After being forced to drink the wine, Gu Qi asked someone to send Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao away. As for the toast, there was no need. Anyway, what was done couldn't be undone. Xiao Chen was useless now. In the eyes of outsiders, Gu Lingyao was Xiao Chen's fiancée.
After sending off Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao, Gu Qi heaved a sigh of relief. It was finally over. Then, everyone drank to their hearts' content in the main hall.
The main hall was bustling with noise and excitement. Meanwhile, at Gu Lingyao's residence, Xiao Chen was sent back by Tian Guochuan. Of course, Gu Lingyao also came along. After removing the seal on Xiao Chen's body, Tian Guochuan said before leaving.
"You and Lingyao are already engaged. According to the Sect Master's wishes, the residence next door has been taken back. You can live with Lingyao in the future."
