On the same day, Jianchen left the Huang family with Huang Luan and returned to Flame City. Before long, the news that the captain of the Flame Mercenaries, the city lord of Flame City, and the greatest human expert, Jianchen, was about to get married spread from the city. It spread across the entire continent in an extremely short amount of time. In just half a day, the sea realm, magical beasts, and the Wasteland Continent all received the news at the same time, shocking all four races.
The wedding was set to take place in Flame City. The identity of the bride did not spread, which led to guesses in the outside world. Many people believed that Jianchen definitely would have more than one bride for his wedding. Other than You Yue, who was publicly acknowledged as his fiancée, there would definitely be a second, third, or even more.
There were even a few people who were familiar with Jianchen who guessed that Huang Luan would become Jianchen's second bride.
Bi Yuntian ended her cultivation in the artifact space as well. She appeared in Flame City and commanded the people of the city. She personally began making arrangements for her son's wedding. Bi Lian participated in the planning as well.
As the bride, You Yue and Huang Luan vanished from everyone's sight. According to custom, the two of them could not see the outside world until the day of the wedding.
The king of the Kingdom of Gesun had also hurried over from afar. He was currently beaming with joy as he smiled from the bottom of his heart. His face was filled with pride.
Although Cardson had been the king of the Kingdom of Gesun for several decades now and the Kingdom of Gesun's status on the Tian Yuan Continent could not be compared to the past, Cardson believed that he had never lived such a glorious life before. After Jianchen and You Yue's wedding, he had become the father of the greatest human expert.
All the important people of Lore City and Changyang Prefecture arrived in Flame City through Space Gates. Jianchen's three aunts and Chang Bo all participated in the various arrangements for Jianchen's wedding.
At the same time, a large number of invitations made from violet gold were sent out from Flame City. They were sent to various places, inviting all the people Jianchen was familiar with. Not only did the people of the Qin Empire receive invitations, but even Qin Xiao of the Tianqin clan received one as well. A portion of the invitations were even sent to the Sea race, the magical beasts, and the Hundred Races by the Holy Emperor of Flame City and the Holy Emperor of Flame City.
Flame City immediately became busy. All the people in the city began to clean up the city. The city was decorated with lanterns and banners. All the mercenaries of the Flame Mercenaries volunteered to prepare for the wedding of the captain they admired the most.
Jian Chen did not take part in the arrangements for the wedding. These matters were all handled by his seniors and Bi Lian. As for himself, he left Flame City and directly made his way to Three Saint Island.
At this moment, the Heavenly Enchantress stood on Three Saint Mountain on Three Saint Island as she gazed in the direction of the Tian Yuan Continent. Wild winds whistled in the sky, causing her purple dress to ruffle and her hair to drift in the wind.
She held a guqin in her arms. It was six feet long and one foot wide. There were thirty-six strings on it, and every single string shone brightly, as if there was a mysterious energy flowing within. Vaguely, there seemed to be an ethereal sound coming from the strings, but if one listened carefully, they would not be able to hear anything at all.
The Heavenly Enchantress stood there with the zither in her arms. Her gaze toward the Tian Yuan Continent was filled with many mixed feelings. In particular, she could even see a shrunken version of Flame City in her eyes. Countless people bustled about in the city, decorating it with lanterns and banners.
At this moment, a young man who seemed to be in his twenties and seemed rather similar to Jianchen walked over from afar. He looked at the Heavenly Enchantress with some eagerness and said, "Mother, father has already gone missing for over a decade. There's no trace of him anywhere. When do you think father will return?"
"Your father has already returned. You'll be able to see him very soon." The Heavenly Enchantress turned around and looked at the young man with a gaze filled with gentleness.
The young man rejoiced when he heard that. He asked in some disbelief, "Really? Father has really returned? "
The young man was Shangguan Aojian. He had already grown up now, becoming a handsome young man. He was no longer the child from before.
Shangguan Aojian's face did not show any signs of immaturity. There was only a sense of coldness. A faint presence of blood could even be sensed from him.
This was a presence that could only be possessed by people who had gone through life and death battles.
As soon as Shangguan Aojian finished speaking, a dazzling speck of violet light suddenly appeared in the distant horizon. In less than a few seconds, the speck of violet light turned into a dazzling streak of light, shooting over from afar with indescribable speed.
Shangguan Aojian immediately became overjoyed when he saw the streak of violet light. He was filled with excitement as he said, "It's father, it really is father. Mother, father has really returned."
The streak of violet light moved extremely quickly, arriving on Three Saint Island in a single moment. The violet light dispersed, revealing the white-clothed Jianchen.
At this moment, Jianchen was only a few hundred meters away from Shangguan Aojian. However, Jianchen did not look at the Heavenly Enchantress. Instead, he looked at Shangguan Aojian who was several hundred meters away. He faintly smiled, as well as some guilt.
He still clearly remembered that the last time he saw Xiao Bao, Xiao Bao was just an innocent child. But now, Xiao Bao was already an adult.
He knew that he was not a good father. He did not fulfill his responsibilities as a father. He owed Xiao Bao too much. However, there were some things that were beyond his control. This caused his heart to be filled with waves of bitterness.
"Father, you've finally returned." Shangguan Aojian was overjoyed as he quickly walked over. His face was filled with joy from seeing Jianchen. He did not blame or reprimand his father at all.
Jianchen also made his way over. He grabbed Shangguan Aojian's shoulders with both hands and carefully studied his son. He could obviously sense the faint presence of blood from Xiao Bao as well as the determination and determination that had been tempered by all sorts of hardships.
"Xiao Bao, you've grown up," Jian Chen said. His emotions were mixed. He felt gratified, emotional, and guilty. Afterwards, he gently pulled open Xiao Bao's clothes with one hand, revealing most of his chest. There were three vicious scars on Xiao Bao's chest. Every single one of them ran through his entire chest.
