"Mister Lin, you came at the right time."
The awkward atmosphere didn't disperse, but Qing Xinyue still couldn't stand the feeling of not being able to speak. She broke the depressing atmosphere first and smiled. There was some bitterness and disappointment in her tone.
Chu Chun Qiu looked at Lin Feng and Qing Xin Yue. He had the feeling that Lin Feng and Qing Xin Yue's relationship wasn't simple, especially since Qing Xin Yue liked Lin Feng. Otherwise, she wouldn't act like that.
Chu Chun Qiu didn't explain because Lin Feng hadn't said anything. He didn't want to say anything. Lin Feng was going to find out anyway.
"I just want to ask one question, can I?" Said Lin Feng with a smile on his face. He looked bitter and stubborn as he stared at Qing Xin Yue.
Qing Xin Yue looked away, she didn't dare look at Lin Feng but she nodded and said, "Go ahead."
"Where is your brother?" asked Lin Feng while staring at Qing Xin Yue.
The sudden question caught Qing Xinyue off guard. Her expression changed slightly and her eyes trembled a little. However, she quickly calmed down and said coldly, "Sir Lin, I don't have a brother. I'm just one person."
"Do you have a reason?" asked Lin Feng, ignoring Qing Xin Yue's reply.
Qing Xin Yue shook her head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Alright, I have something to do, so I'm leaving."
"Besides, Mister Lin, it's not good for you to come to my room. You should go to the outer palace and watch my engagement ceremony with Qing Ling Xuan." Said Qing Xin Yue indifferently. Then, she walked past Lin Feng. They bumped shoulders, but Lin Feng couldn't stop her from leaving.
Qing Xinyue was wearing a three-meter-long Taichi robe. Her crimson red robe and golden phoenix coronet. Everything looked so elegant and luxurious. Behind her were four maids and two guards who were dressed splendidly. They were all Half-Step God Emperor experts.
Qing Xin Yue walked past Lin Feng and disappeared into the palace. From the beginning to the end, Lin Feng didn't say a single word. He also didn't explain to Qing Xin Yue what had happened.
After a short time, Chu Chun Qiu arrived in front of Lin Feng and asked indifferently, "Why don't you tell me the reason?"
"Do you think that she would believe me?" asked Lin Feng while shaking his head and smiling wryly.
"Hehe, maybe not, but don't you still have me? After all, I was one of them, so I can defend you. " Chu Chun Qiu shook his head. He knew that Qing Xin Yue wouldn't believe Lin Feng, but Chu Chun Qiu had saved Qing Xin Yue, she knew that. Therefore, Chu Chun Qiu could defend Lin Feng.
"Alright, let's go to the front hall. I don't need to explain myself. I will let Qing Lingxuan and the others tell the truth themselves because it will be easier for Qing Xinyue to believe them." Lin Feng shook his head. He turned around and immediately left. Qing Ling Xuan was the one who told him the truth. Lin Feng shook his head and turned around.
Said Chu Chun Qiu while smiling. Lin Feng hadn't changed at all. He was stubborn and unruly.
Chu Chun Qiu followed Lin Feng to the main hall. At that moment, there was a commotion in the main hall. More and more people were wondering why the patriarch hadn't arrived yet. It was already a quarter past noon.
"The patriarch has arrived!"
At the same time that noon arrived, a deafening sound suddenly rang out from below the high platform. Immediately after, everyone saw Qing Xinyue, who was wearing a phoenix coronet and a red cape, walking up the high platform step by step, accompanied by a few maids and guards.
When Qing Xu Duan saw that Qing Xin Yue had finally arrived, he took a deep breath. His plan was finally going to continue. The engagement ceremony could start.
"Let's begin." Said Qing Xin Yue to the old man who was in charge of the ceremony. She then raised her long red dress and sat on the throne, which was the patriarch's seat.
The old man nodded and turned around. He then smiled and shouted, "I hereby announce that the engagement ceremony has officially begun!"
Following the shout of the elderly host, Qing Xinyue and Qing Ling Xuan's engagement ceremony finally began. Everything would be carried out according to the proper channels.
Qing Ling Xuan, who was standing at the side, couldn't hold back the excitement and joy in her heart. She couldn't wait to rush up to the stage and hold Qing Xinyue's hand. Then, she would carry Qing Xinyue into the bedroom so that they could consummate their marriage as soon as possible.
"Patriarch, why are you so late?" asked Qing Xu Duan to the maid behind him using telepathy.
The maidservant revealed a troubled expression because Qing Xinyue had warned her not to tell anyone about what happened in front of her room. However, the pressure of Qing Xu Brute was far too terrifying. She was only a little maidservant, so how could she resist Qing Xu Brute?
When Qing Xu Duan heard the reason, his facial expression drastically changed. His heart was pounding. Lin Feng? Was he here?
Qingxu Duan remained silent. Then, he fixed his gaze on the crowd below the high platform, scrutinizing each and every one of them seriously. Finally, his gaze locked onto two men in black robes. He felt as though he was suffocating.
He wasn't afraid of Lin Feng, but he was afraid that Lin Feng would cause trouble and ruin his plan. Lin Feng hadn't gone to Ju Valley to save Qing Xin Yue, he had even sacrificed himself. That kind of person was the best partner for Qing Xin Yue. Qing Xu Duan agreed to marry such a person.
The battle world was about to open and the Qing Ling Dynasty's real body was about to come back. Therefore, he had to sacrifice Qing Xin Yue and Lin Feng. If Lin Feng appeared now, it would ruin his plan.
At the same time, he thought of a very serious problem. He clearly told the Taiqing Sect and the Sunlight Empire that no one was allowed to say anything about this. How did Lin Feng know about it now?
Suddenly, Qing Xu Duan looked at the old man with the white beard, who was the clone of the Qing Ling Dynasty. He looked perplexed.
Qing Xin Yue was part of his plan, so the Qing Ling Dynasty was also using Lin Feng as part of their plan.
When Qing Xu Duan thought about that, his clothes were soaked in cold sweat. If that was the case, he wouldn't be able to make a good decision.
"I'll host it myself. You can leave."
Qingxu Duan could no longer sit still in his chair and directly interrupted the old man in charge. Following this, he personally stepped onto the stage and began to preside over the engagement ceremony.
Qing Xu Duan's actions attracted a lot of cheers. It was a great honor for the Tai Qing Sect to host the marriage. It was also a great prosperity for the Tai Qing Sect.
The old host didn't dare to have any complaints. He retreated and gave up his position to Qing Xuduan. Qing Xuduan stood in the middle of the high platform and glanced at Qing Lingchao. Qing Lingchao pursed his lips and smiled confidently.
Compared to the indifference of the Qing Ling Dynasty, Qing Xu Duan was very anxious at the moment. He looked away and said in a deep voice, "This engagement ceremony is between our sect master and my disciple, Qing Ling Xuan, so it is very important for the Tai Qing Sect."
"On such an important day, I don't want anyone to spread this news. After all, this is related to the rise and fall of the Tai Qing Sect."
"So, those of you below the platform, go back." Qing Xu Duan pulled a long face. He didn't want Lin Feng to ruin his plan, but he couldn't say Lin Feng's name, otherwise, Lin Feng would be exposed. Therefore, he could only ask someone else to drive Lin Feng away.
Lin Feng didn't want to leave, the disciples didn't want to leave either. When they heard him, they started talking incessantly but nobody left the stage.
Seeing that no one was leaving, Qingxu Duan became even more anxious. Seeing how anxious Qingxu Duan was, Qingling Dynasty's face brightened up again. It seemed that they were more confident of winning.
"Excuse me, why is it good for the safety of the Taiqing Sect if we leave? Do you think we'll harm the sect? "
"Yes, Grand Sect Master, are you worried about something?"
"It's fine, Supreme Sect Leader. We'll just watch quietly. We definitely won't cause any damage or chaos, so don't worry."
…
More and more disciples began to speak up. Instead, they were trying to comfort Qingxu Duan, saying that there was no need to worry too much. This made things even more difficult for Qingxu Duan. However, he couldn't continue speaking. Ruining the engagement ceremony wasn't a good sign.
"Alright, that's all. Let's welcome Qing Ling Xuan to the stage." Qing Xu Duan nodded and then looked at Qing Ling Xuan, indicating that he was about to go on stage. As the protagonist, he had to do his best.
Since Lin Feng was already there, Qing Ling Xuan couldn't show any weakness. If he wanted to marry Qing Xin Yue, how could he not do anything?
"Understood!" Qing Ling Xuan let out a wolf roar. He couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart as he hurriedly ran towards the stage. However, he couldn't lose his composure, so he used the shortest amount of time to reach the stage without appearing overly thirsty.
Qing Ling Xuan stood on the stage and looked at Qing Xin Yue.
"Sect Leader, come down too." Said Qing Ling Xuan while waving at Qing Xin Yue. He slightly bowed to show his respect to the Sect Leader, but not to Qing Xin Yue.
After all, Qing Xin Yue was his disciple, she was his junior. He only respected the position of the Sect Leader because that position was sacred and inviolable.
Qing Xin Yue expressionlessly walked down from the throne. The maid next to her wanted to help her but Qing Xin Yue pushed her away. The maid was so scared that she didn't dare move. She could only stay where she was.
Many people saw that but they didn't dare say anything. Even an idiot could see that Qing Xin Yue didn't want to get engaged, especially not to Qing Ling Xuan.
Many disciples in the audience were envious. Their goddess had been stolen by Qing Ling Xuan? Apart from jealousy and hatred, they didn't dare to think about anything else.
Qing Xin Yue was standing in front of Qing Ling Xuan. Qing Ling Xuan was looking at the goddess of his dreams and the girl he wanted but Qing Xin Yue remained expressionless. She didn't look at Qing Ling Xuan or Qing Xu Duan.
Qing Xu Duan sighed helplessly. Qing Xin Yue hated him but he had no other choice.
"Hold hands, the ceremony begins!"
Shouted Qing Xu Duan in a deep voice. He then turned around and looked at the newlyweds.
The nine Supreme Elders also stood up. Out of respect for the Sect Master, they all walked down and surrounded the newlyweds, using their eyes to witness this scene.
The atmosphere was tense. Many people's hearts were pounding. They were waiting for that moment.
Lin Feng took a few steps forwards and stood at the front of the stage. He was watching the scene unfold before his eyes.
