All the cultivators present had witnessed how Ye Tianze had taken over the Rune Hall after becoming the Chosen.
Now, not to mention the cultivators of the Rune Hall, even the representatives of the various powers in the Bedlam Lands were in awe of Ye Tianze.
Now that he had taken over the Rune Hall, there were no cultivators who dared to make a move on him. Even Huangfu Song had given up on the idea of making a move on him.
The middle-aged man in the Pill Hall also shook his head inwardly. This Chosen was at the peak of his power, and he didn't want to send people to die. Furthermore, this was the Rune Hall.
Inside the secret realm, the Hall Master and a group of Grand Elders had witnessed Long Qingtian being whipped a thousand times. Each whip seemed to have landed on the Hall Master's body.
Although it didn't hurt, it was extremely stifling.
Although the Grand Elders usually fought in the open and in the dark, they were incomparably united at this moment.
"If we let him continue like this, won't we really lose power?"
"He can actually use the Tyrant Arts so well. Could it be that he's a Legalist spell warrior?"
"That might not necessarily be the case. It's just that we've restricted our own hands and feet, allowing him to succeed. However, the following situation won't be easy to break!"
The Grand Elders discussed for a while. When they heard the Hall Master's words, they suddenly remembered the blessing ceremony of the Chosen Saintess.
Originally, the Hall Master was going to personally host it, and the Grand Elders were also going to attend. However, none of them were willing to attend.
After all, she was the Saintess of the Rune Hall. If they were to cripple her, they would be going back on their word and losing face.
Now that the Chosen Saintess had appeared, everything would be handled by the Chosen Saintess. Thus, the Chosen Saintess would naturally be responsible for crippling her.
When the time came, they could push all the blame onto the Chosen Saintess. Weren't you the Chosen Saintess in the prophecy?
For the sake of the Rune Hall, it was natural for him to take the blame.
Soon, Ye Tianze arrived at the main hall. After some preparations, Liu Mengchan arrived on a path covered with flowers.
Beside her were hundreds of female cultivators. They were all dressed in palace attire. Liu Mengchan wore a veil that covered half of her face, leaving only her starry eyes exposed. She looked extremely mysterious.
All the major powers looked at Liu Mengchan with yearning in their hearts. Liu Mengchan was very beautiful without dressing up, but after dressing up, she was so beautiful that it moved their Dao hearts.
On the other hand, Ye Tianze had a calm expression on his face. Sitting in the main seat, he still had the same attitude towards Liu Mengchan as before.
Until now, no one had seen through Ye Tianze's true appearance. The light runes on his body concealed his body.
However, it was no longer as dazzling as before.
The Blessing Ceremony was extremely complicated, almost all the elders were present. Even the famous Inscriptionists of the Divine Inscriptions Hall were present.
Although there was no Hall Master or Grand Elder, there was the blessing of the Saint in the prophecy. This was the first time she, the Saintess, had such a blessing.
Ye Tianze put on the Saintess's crown for her, and then received the precepts. When she sat in the Saintess' seat, all the cultivators bowed, and the blessing ceremony was considered to have ended.
Huangfu Song didn't give Liu Mengchan any time to catch her breath. He directly walked forward and said, "Reporting to the Saintess, I am the son of the Chaos Homeland's Lord of Chaos, Huangfu Song. I have come to propose marriage. I have prepared a million pills, ten thousand spirit herbs, and a few artificial spirit treasures …"
Hearing these betrothal gifts, not to mention the major powers, even the Chaos Homeland was shocked.
This was the Divine Inscriptions Hall that had lost a bet. They had come to propose marriage, but it was just a formality. Why would they need so many betrothal gifts?
This was twice as much as what they had prepared before.
Even Ye Tianze, who was sitting in the Hall Master's seat, was slightly shocked. He didn't expect the Chaos Homeland to put in so much effort.
"Originally, I had only reported half of the betrothal gifts. However, after seeing the Saintess with my own eyes and witnessing the Saintess' glory, I feel that the betrothal gifts just now are not worthy of the Saintess. For this reason, I have specially doubled the amount."
Huangfu Song said. "I ask for the Saintess' permission."
Liu Mengchan's expression was ugly. Apart from her, there was no one else present who didn't like this. Sacrificing him would not only allow the Divine Inscriptions Hall to obtain so many betrothal gifts, but also complete the bet.
Not to mention, with the Saintess present, what use was there for the Saintess? If the Saintess stayed, she would only be a decoration.
"I ask for the Saintess' permission." Seeing that Ye Tianze didn't reply for a long time, Huangfu Song said again.
After what had happened just now, Huangfu Song didn't want to offend the Saintess. At least in his opinion, offending the Saintess wasn't worth it.
Even if he wanted to offend the Saintess, now was not the time. He would have to wait until he left the Divine Inscriptions Hall.
Ye Tianze wasn't hesitating. He was just attracted by the betrothal gifts in front of him. He was thinking about how to keep these gifts.
He had to find a good excuse. Right now, he seemed to be in control of the Divine Inscriptions Hall, but in truth, as long as the Hall Master and the other Elders came out, the Divine Inscriptions Hall would be in a completely different situation. He was already very lucky to be able to obtain a portion of the authority.
He naturally couldn't completely offend the Chaotic Homeland. Even if he did, he had to find a reason that the Chaos Overlord couldn't do anything to him.
Hearing Huangfu Song's words, Ye Tianze suddenly shouted, "Impudent! What do you take my Divine Inscriptions Hall for? Is the Saintess something you can marry as you please?"
The cultivators present were all taken aback by this shout. The elders of the Divine Inscription Hall who had been smiling suddenly froze. Could it be that the Chosen Saint wanted to go back on his word?
They all knew that if they went back on the bet, the Chaotic Lands would have a reason to start a war with the Divine Inscriptions Hall. It was even possible that the Chaos Overlord would personally make a move. At that time, who knew how many cultivators would die in the battle between the two powers?
The smile on Huangfu Song's face instantly froze. Then, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Highness Saintess, there's something you don't know. It's not that I'm rude, but previously, the Divine Inscriptions Hall Master and the Chaos Overlord had a bet. If I lost, the Saintess would have to marry me. I'm only here to fulfill the bet. Your Highness Saintess, please make an exception."
The other Elders all agreed. Huangfu Song had already given them enough face. If he continued to make things difficult for them, it would be a bit unreasonable.
"Oh, so there's something like that."
Ye Tianze said, "Since the Hall Master made the bet, I naturally won't make things difficult for you. However, I have a personal grudge that I want to settle with you."
"Yes."
Huangfu Song frowned and said, "I don't seem to know the Saintess, nor have I offended the Saintess. If I've offended you in any way, I'm willing to apologize to Your Highness Saintess."
As soon as these words came out, the originally nervous Elders let out a sigh of relief. Not only was Huangfu Song's words watertight, but he was also much more sensible than they had imagined.
Doubling the betrothal gift was already giving enough face. Even if the Saintess made things difficult for him, he would still endure and take a step back. This was equivalent to saying that he hadn't come to marry the Saintess because of the bet. He had come to marry the Saintess with sincerity.
The Elders all thought that the Saintess had done this to win back face for the Divine Inscriptions Hall. And his goal had already been achieved.
But they didn't expect that Ye Tianze would sneer and suddenly stand up from the main seat. He said, "I didn't offend you?"
He glanced at Huangfu Song and said, "You wanted to snatch my Dao-companion in front of me. If that's not called offending, then this Saintess doesn't know what is. If you can be so magnanimous and not bother about trifles, then how about you send all the women in your harem to this Saintess and let this Saintess play with them for a few hundred years so that this Saintess can relax?
