They were all dressed in luxurious clothes, and the sky was filled with bright lights. Every single person who appeared had a superior and arrogant expression on their faces. They were the nobles of the Dancing Sun City, and they were supposed to be superior to everyone else.
A total of over twenty muscular men wearing luxurious clothes appeared in the first batch. They slowly landed on the huge altar, then they stood in two rows in an orderly manner.
After these twenty muscular men appeared, more and more men started appearing in the sky. Each of these men were the upper echelons of the Wu family. Today was the Wu family's ancestral worshipping ceremony, and those who were qualified to stand on the altar were all men with high status.
The man who led the group looked to be in his thirties. He had a graceful and luxurious face, and he had both hands placed behind his back. He was walking calmly in the sky toward the altar.
"Look, that's Wu Tianyang, the chief of the Wu family, and Wu Ningzhu's father!"
"This guy really has a good daughter!"
"That's right, and his cultivation base isn't weak either. I heard that he just broke through to the Mid Combat Soul realm not long ago. A Mid Combat Soul warrior, and with Wu Ningzhu's help, Wu Tianyang can really do whatever he wants no matter where he goes."
… …
The appearance of Wu Tianyang immediately attracted everyone's attention. This chief of the Wu family was the true ruler of the Dancing Sun City, and even a fart from him could cause the entire city to tremble.
Jiang Chen nodded his head. This Wu Tianyang did have an extraordinary bearing, at least not someone ordinary could compare with him. However, if Wu Tianyang was the strongest warrior in the Wu family, then the gap between the Wu family and the Nangong family was huge. However, if the genius Wu Ningzhu was taken into consideration, and the relationship between the Wu family and the Profound River Palace was taken into consideration, then the Wu family's status wasn't any lower than the Nangong family's.
Therefore, in the Southern Continent, the Wu family was an exception. They didn't have the same overall strength as the Nangong family, but they had the same status as the Nangong family.
After Wu Tianyang appeared, all the upper echelons of the Wu family arrived one after another. The Wu family had a strong foundation, they had four Combat Soul warriors, and nearly twenty Late Divine Core warriors. All of them were standing on top of the altar.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were still fixed on the sky. Everyone knew that the main character today was not the people on the altar, nor was it Wu Tianyang himself. It was Wu Ningzhu. The Ancestral Worshipping Ceremony would not begin until the eldest daughter of the Wu family appeared.
Right at that moment, a melodious sound of a zither could be heard. Before anyone could even see the silhouette of a person, the sound waves were already rippling in the air. Right after the sound waves were heard, the entire Dancing Sun City became completely silent.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but be moved. The sound of the zither seemed to have some kind of magical power. It was as beautiful as a stream flowing in his heart, clear and transparent. The sound of the zither was neither fast nor slow, permeating every part of the void. It was as if it had become one with nature. It was too wonderful for words.
It was too beautiful. Just the sound of the zither alone was so beautiful. One could only imagine the person who played the zither.
Wonderhand Thousandtune, Wu Ningzhu, definitely lived up to her reputation.
"Look, young miss Wu Ningzhu is here!"
Someone shouted out. All the people who were immersed in the sound of the zither immediately opened their eyes. After that, the scene once again fell into an unprecedented silence, because right at this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the lone figure in the sky.
Jiang Chen opened his eyes as well. The first thing that came into his sight was a beautiful woman who was sitting cross-legged while playing the zither. Although the woman was just sitting there, it still couldn't hide her impressive figure. She was wearing a tight-fitting black dress, revealing a large part of her snow-white neck. Her proud twin peaks were filled with a wild beauty, and her black hair hung down to her waist like a waterfall. Her face was covered by a thin black veil, which made her beautiful face faintly discernible. However, with Jiang Chen's eyesight, he was able to see through the black veil and see her impeccably beautiful face.
The woman's eyes were very bright, like the stars in the night sky. No dazzling colors could cover her dazzling brilliance. Even the knowledgeable Jiang Chen couldn't help but admit that the number one beauty of the Southern Continent truly lived up to her name.
Wu Ningzhu's beauty was different from Yan Chen Yu's. Yan Chen Yu was like an ice lotus, holy and ethereal, and could penetrate the heart. On the other hand, Wu Ningzhu was filled with a wild beauty. Every single movement of hers carried a hint of feminine charm. She was like a lone rose that could bloom with endless colors at any time. A woman like this was simply a fatal attraction to men.
At this moment, Wu Ningzhu was sitting cross-legged in midair. Her slender jade-like hands were constantly plucking the strings of the zither in her bosom. It was a black zither, and even the strings were black. It matched her style perfectly.
The sound of the zither was like jade beads falling onto a plate. It was clear and melodious, and it made people feel refreshed. That pair of jade-like hands were dancing on the zither like butterflies.
"Beautiful, she's so beautiful!"
"Wonderhand Thousandtune truly lives up to her name. Her zither music is so mesmerizing that I can't help but feel refreshed after listening to it. However, rumor has it that Wu Ningzhu's strength lies in her ability to change between the notes of her zither. Her beautiful zither music can soothe people's souls, but it can also change into a demonic tune that can kill at any time. It's impossible to defend against it."
"To be able to see such a beauty in the Dancing Sun City, this trip has not been in vain. The only flaw is that Wu Ningzhu is wearing a veil on her face."
"Damn it, why are you still so unsatisfied? Isn't it enough to see such a peerless beauty? As far as I know, no one has ever removed Wu Ningzhu's veil before, because no one has the right to do so. "
… …
None of the men could move their eyes away from Wu Ningzhu. To them, being able to look at this legendary figure from afar was more than enough. They would never dare to have any improper thoughts.
Wu Ningzhu's zither music lasted for a few minutes before it slowly faded away. The zither in her arms turned into a black light and disappeared. Wu Ningzhu slowly stood up, revealing her tall and proud figure. Such a marvelous figure was enough to make people's noses bleed.
Wu Ningzhu raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at the crowd below. Her star-like eyes were filled with a demonic charm. After that, Wu Ningzhu walked towards the altar with light steps.
Right when Wu Ningzhu was about to reach the altar, an old man appeared in the sky and arrived next to her. This old man wore a gray robe, and he wore an indifferent expression. Without saying a word, he just followed behind Wu Ningzhu. When the people of the Wu family saw this old man, they immediately bowed toward him. Even Wu Tianyang had to greet him with a smile on his face.
"Look, that man is an Elder from the Profound River Palace, and he's a Late Combat Soul warrior! A mighty warrior like this is going to attend the Wu family's ancestral worshipping ceremony! The Wu family is so proud!"
"That's all because of Wu Ningzhu! Not only is Wu Ningzhu the Wu family's eldest daughter, she's also the Profound River Palace's number one genius! She's highly valued by the upper echelons of the Profound River Palace, so it's reasonable for them to send a Late Combat Soul warrior to accompany her."
"Look, the ancestral worshipping ceremony is about to begin!"
Many people were talking and laughing. Everyone threw their gazes onto the altar.
"Haha, the Wu family's ancestral worshipping ceremony is so lively! I wonder if I, the Guardian, will be welcomed?"
Right at this moment, a sudden change occurred. An incomparably loud voice could be heard coming from afar, followed by a series of rumbling sounds. A dark cloud appeared in the sky above the Dancing Sun City. Such a huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of everyone. When the crowd's gaze fell upon the dark cloud, they could clearly feel the monstrous Demonic Qi that was being emitted from it. "Haha!
Swoosh!
The dark cloud dispersed, revealing four figures in the sky. All four of them were wearing strange clothes, and anyone could easily tell that they weren't humans. The leading man was holding a feather fan in his hand, and he was wearing a raincoat. A long feather was tied to his head, and he wore an evil smile on his face.
The other man looked like a gigantic pagoda, and he was extremely muscular. Although he looked like a human, he looked no different from a bear.
The third man was skinny and straight, and he had a pair of sharp eagle eyes. His eerie face also had an eagle's nose.
The last man was wearing a loose black robe that was embroidered with bats. Both of his black ears were covered by his face, and he looked extremely ugly.
However, the aura emitted by these four men was extremely powerful, and all four of them were Late Combat Soul warriors.
In the Southern Continent, the human race and the demon race were like fire and water. Since the Wu family was holding their ancestral worshipping ceremony, it was obvious that these demon warriors didn't come with good intentions.
When the old man standing next to Wu Ningzhu saw these four men, his expression instantly changed.
"Yun Zhonghe, Baoshan Xiong, Iron-Winged Eagle, Heixin Fu, four out of the eight great guardians of the Demon King Palace are here. May I know why the four of you are here in the Dancing Sun City?"
The old man said with a loud voice. The Profound River Palace and the Demon King Palace were rivals, and the upper echelons of both sides were very familiar with each other. The eight great guardians of the Demon King Palace were very famous, and almost everyone knew about them. Today, the Wu family was holding their ancestral worshipping ceremony, and the Demon King Palace had actually come here.
"Shan Ying, we're not here for you today, we're here for young lady Wu Ningzhu. Our Palace Chief has been drooling over young lady Wu Ningzhu for a long time, so I wonder if young lady Wu Ningzhu can come with us?"
Yun Zhonghe, who was holding a feather fan, threw his glance at Wu Ningzhu and spoke with an indifferent tone.
"Presumptuous! The Profound River Palace's Holy Maiden is not someone you demons can touch!"
The old man's name was Shan Ying. When he heard that the Demon King Palace was planning to touch Wu Ningzhu, he immediately became furious.
"Today is our Wu family's ancestral worshipping ceremony, but I never thought that the Demon King Palace would be here. Four out of the eight great guardians are here, and judging from your appearance, you're probably here for a fight, right?"
Wu Ningzhu spoke. Her clear voice was filled with power, and it seemed like she was a woman who was not inferior to any man.
"Haha, young lady Wu Ningzhu is indeed smart, but you're only half right. We're not here to fight, we're here to kill! Today, we're going to kill everyone in this Dancing Sun City, and we'll bring young lady Wu back to our Palace Chief!"
Yun Zhonghe said without beating around the bush. Right after he finished speaking, dark clouds began to rumble in the sky, and an endless amount of demonic energy filled the air.
"Hmph! Don't say that the Demon King Palace started a war. Not long ago, a genius of your human race annihilated a major power of our demon race. Our Demon King Palace isn't a pushover, so we'll use this opportunity to slaughter everyone in the city and teach you a lesson! "
Yun Zhonghe coldly harrumphed.
