Outside the Mayor's Mansion, there was a sea of people. Jiang Zhen Hai and his son stood outside the gate of the Mayor's Mansion, looking at the dragon-like wedding procession that was gradually arriving, a sneer appeared on their faces.
"See that, Father? Mu Rong Zhan made such a big fuss about marrying into the family. Other than making us a laughing stock, he also wants to suppress us in terms of momentum."
Jiang Chen said.
"Hmph! Let's see who will be the laughing stock today. "
Jiang Zhen Hai snorted.
"Haha, Brother Jiang, I, Mu Rong Zhan, am here to welcome the bride. Is Jiang Ru Long's son-in-law ready?"
Mu Rong Zhan's voice was extremely loud, emphasizing the word 'bride'.
"Of course, my son was ready yesterday. Chen Er, go and invite your brother out."
Jiang Zhen Hai laughed.
"Uncle Mu Rong, please wait for a moment. I will go and invite my brother."
Jiang Chen cupped his fists at Mu Rong Zhan and left.
Murong Zhan was wearing a red robe and beaming with joy. Murong Xiaorou wore a phoenix coronet and a red cape. She had a bashful expression on her face. Just one look at them would make one feel full for three days. Many people didn't have the courage to take a second look at Murong Xiaorou.
'Sister, you must be sent by God to torture people.'
It was hard to imagine how a man would live his life after marrying Mu Rong Xiao Rou.
"Move."
Not long after that, a loud shout sounded out from within the mansion. After that, Jiang Chen came to the front door with a huge black coffin on his shoulder.
Dong!
Jiang Chen casually threw the coffin outside the main gate. The head of the coffin was facing the Mu Rong family's wedding procession. On top of the coffin, there was a big word, "Memorial", which was very eye-catching.
Shua!
Countless gazes fell on this inexplicable coffin, and the originally noisy scene instantly quietened down.
What were they trying to do? Wasn't it too inauspicious to bring out a coffin for a joyous occasion? What was the City Lord's Mansion thinking?
Mu Rong Zhan's expression changed. He looked at Jiang Zhen Hai and shouted, "Brother Jiang, what is the meaning of this?"
"I'm very sorry. My big brother suddenly died of a violent illness yesterday. Hence, Lady Murong, you can only marry my big brother's corpse. For the sake of being a little more presentable, I deliberately made a coffin for my big brother. Of course, I even wore a bridegroom's outfit inside."
Jiang Chen said loudly so that everyone present could hear him clearly.
"What?"
Immediately, cries of alarm could be heard from all directions. They had never seen such a thing before. Welcoming the bride with a coffin, regardless of whether Jiang Ru Long was truly dead or not, it was still a slap to the Mu Rong Clan's face. This slap was too ruthless.
This was especially true when the Murong Clan had come in a glorious manner. A single coffin was enough to make the Murong Clan lose all their dignity.
"Jiang Zhen Hai, don't go too far."
Mu Rong Zhan was furious.
"No matter what, Uncle Murong is still the head of the family. How can you speak so inappropriately? What do you mean we're going overboard? You came to marry my big brother, but you didn't say whether the person you're marrying is dead or alive."
When Jiang Chen said this, many people wanted to vomit blood. It turned out that there was such a principle in the world.
"Hmph! Jiang Zhen Hai, don't try to fool me. Jiang Ru Long is a level 9 Qi Realm master. He was perfectly fine yesterday, how could he have died tonight? "
Mu Rong Zhan said coldly.
"Jiang Ru Long is in the coffin. If you don't believe me, you can open it and see. He's a member of the Mu Rong Clan after all."
Jiang Chen said. His tone was no longer as friendly as before. Jiang Zhen Hai just stood there with his hands behind his back. He didn't say a word, he was waiting for his son to deal with the situation.
Jiang Zhen Hai was quite satisfied with his son's performance. Facing Mu Rong Zhan, he was able to be so calm and collected. This was not something an ordinary young man could do. After all, Mu Rong Zhan was a master at the peak of Qi Sea, just like him.
"Damn it, we're here to welcome the bride, but the mayor's mansion actually brought out a coffin. This is an insult to the Mu Rong Clan!"
A young man from the Mu Rong Clan cursed.
"Haha, this brother is right! If we're talking about insults, then you guys are the ones who insulted the mayor's mansion first! Open your eyes wide and look at this Mu Rong Xiao Rou's face! Is this the sincerity of the Mu Rong Clan? All the men here, let me ask you, do you think this is an insult? Who dares to marry Mu Rong Xiao Rou? Step forward and let me see!"
Jiang Chen laughed out loud. He loved to fight with his enemies. There was no need to be polite to his enemies.
When he said this, all the men's faces turned green. Damn it, rather than marrying this ugly woman, they would rather kill themselves. The Mu Rong Clan was a big clan, but they brought out such an ugly woman to marry the mayor's mansion. It seemed like the Mu Rong Clan was the one who insulted the mayor's mansion first.
"Besides, whether this ugly woman is Mu Rong Zhan's daughter or not, I'm afraid."
Jiang Chen sneered.
"Good, what a sharp-tongued kid. Everyone says that Jiang Chen is a famous hedonistic trash in the Fragrant Sky City, but who would have thought that he would be so scheming? Jiang Zhen Hai, I, Mu Rong Zhan, will remember what happened today. From now on, the Mu Rong Clan and the mayor's mansion will be enemies."
Mu Rong Zhan was furious, and the way he looked at Jiang Chen changed. He was not an idiot, on the contrary, he was very shrewd. From the day before, when Jiang Chen suggested that Jiang Chen should marry into the Mu Rong Clan, to today, everything was planned by Jiang Chen. It could be said that this was a slap to the Mu Rong Clan's face. Even Mu Rong Zhan couldn't help but admire Jiang Chen for having such a plan at such a young age.
"Very good, even if we are enemies, the mayor's mansion doesn't care. I ask the Mu Rong Clan to marry my big brother, and don't forget to send me the cost of the coffin. This coffin is very expensive."
Jiang Chen said loudly.
As soon as these words came out, the Mu Rong Clan's riders swayed and almost fell off their horses. This guy was too shameless.
When everyone from the Jiang Family caught sight of this, all of them were dumbfounded. This Second Young Master was way too foreign! How was this the silkpants trash from before? To think that he would dare to challenge Mu Rong Zhan directly! This was as though he was a completely different person!
Also, why did the young master suddenly die? Could it be that he died from anger?
However, this was not important anymore. In fact, in the mayor's eyes, the most important person was the second young master.
Too shameless! Too sinister! Too talented!
The second young master of the Jiang Clan ruthlessly slapped the Mu Rong Clan's face, and the wedding procession suddenly became the laughing stock of the Fragrant Sky City.
"Good, good, Jiang Zhen Hai, you and your father just wait. It won't be long before your Jiang Clan can forget about living in the Fragrant Sky City. Let's go."
Mu Rong Zhan was burning with anger. He had been a wise man for a long time, but he was fooled by a young boy. This was not just a matter of losing face, it was a complete humiliation.
Mu Rong Zhan's legs trembled, and the horse he was riding let out a whinny in pain. Then, it galloped away like a wisp of smoke. Mu Rong Zhan really did not want to stay here any longer, and he was even more unwilling to return with the wedding procession.
"Hmph! Jiang Chen, scheming and scheming? What kind of hero are you? If you have the guts, come fight me one on one. I, Mu Rong Ying, will beat you up so badly that even your father won't be able to recognize you. "
A young man jumped down from his horse and pointed at Jiang Chen. Mu Rong Ying was the Mu Rong Clan's hero, and he was young and full of vigor. Even though the head of the clan had left, he was not willing to give up. Since the Mu Rong Clan had lost face, if he could use force to beat up Jiang Chen, then he would be able to vent his anger and prove that the geniuses of the Mu Rong Clan were much stronger than the hedonistic sons of the Jiang Clan.
"That's right, Jiang Chen. Do you dare to fight for real?"
Another young man from the Mu Rong family shouted out as well. His face was filled with mockery. Jiang Chen was a famous trash in Fragrant Sky city. Everyone knew about this. Although he had used a trick to bring shame to the Mu Rong family, if they were to really fight, anyone from the Mu Rong family could easily defeat him.
"You want to fight with me? That's fine, but I won't fight for nothing. I want to bet something. "
A cold smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face. Even Jiang Zhen Hai, who was standing in front of the gate, laughed. Others might not know how powerful Jiang Chen was, but he knew. He had killed Jiang Ru Long, who was a level 9 Qi Jing warrior, with one hit. This Mu Rong Ying was only a level 8 Qi Jing warrior. There was no way he could win against Jiang Chen.
"Alright, what do you want to bet?"
Mu Rong Ying was overjoyed when he heard that Jiang Chen dared to accept the challenge.
"Let's bet on this coffin. If I lose, I will hang the coffin in front of the Mayor's mansion for three days. If you lose, it's very simple. You have to use your palanquin to carry the coffin back. If you can't do it, then your Mu Rong Family is a bunch of bastards."
Jiang Chen's voice was extremely loud, and Jiang Zhen Hai secretly gave his son a thumbs up. This was a vicious move. Now that there were so many people in front of the Mayor's mansion, Mu Rong Ying wouldn't be able to deny it even if he wanted to. If the wedding procession really brought the coffin back, then they would become the laughingstock of all. If Mu Rong Ying didn't do this, then it would mean that everyone in the Mu Rong family was a bunch of bastards, and that would be a huge loss of face.
Jiang Zhen Hai didn't think that his son's decision was wrong. They had already fallen out with each other. From now on, the two families would be enemies.
"Alright, I accept the challenge."
Mu Rong Ying agreed without any hesitation. He didn't even hear what Jiang Chen was betting on. In his mind, defeating Jiang Chen was no different than defeating an ant. No matter what the bet was, it was meaningless to him.
"Brother Ying, this bet is a bit big. Do you want to think about it?"
A young man whispered into Mu Rong Ying's ear.
"Don't worry. This kid is only a level 1 Qi Jing warrior. I can beat him like a dead dog. Just wait and see him hang the coffin in front of the Mayor's mansion for three days."
Mu Rong Ying said with confidence. He didn't take Jiang Chen seriously at all.
