Chapter 840: The Arrival of the Black Dragon
Bang.
Someone kicked open the gates of the city lord's manor with a loud bang. The instant the gates opened, several guards flew in.
When they saw this, the wedding guests instantly fell into an uproar.
"Hm?"
Lin Xihe couldn't help but place her hand on her veil. Judging from her actions, it was clear that she wanted to remove it.
However, perhaps because she considered that removing her veil now was somewhat inauspicious, she suppressed her hand in the end.
"Zizhao, what's going on?"
Zhao Zizhao smiled calmly the entire time. He didn't answer Lin Xihe's question, but Ye Zichen did.
"General Zhao's friends have come to attend the wedding."
"Is that so? Then why do I feel like something's wrong?" Asked Lin Xihe, completely unaware of what was going on. "Since they're Zizhao's friends, then Zizhao should go entertain them and make arrangements."
"That won't be necessary. General Zhao's friends have come with ill intentions."
Ye Zichen's expression was incomparably dark. He stared intently at Zhao Zizhao and snorted.
"I never would have guessed General Zhao's friends were so extensive. You've even befriended demons?"
"What?"
When she heard that, Lin Xihe lifted her veil, looked up at the gates of the city lord's manor.
What greeted her eyes was a scene of chaos. The city guards brandished their swords and sabers, and a group of dark-skinned humans stood before them.
Demons.
Lin Xihe's fair hand reached into the air, and a flexible, violet sword appeared in her hand. Almost without any hesitation, she carried her flexible sword and directly charged toward the gate of the Devil Clan.
Slash.
Slash.
Sword light flashed.
When her sword struck the group of demons, they all turned into a cloud of purple Qi and disappeared from the City Lord's Mansion.
"Is this how City Lord Lin treats her guests? I've come to offer my congratulations."
At this moment, a purple-robed man suddenly appeared at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion.
His face was covered in dragon scales. His lips were purple, and his eyes were bloodshot. He was two meters tall, but his body was extremely thin.
He had a devilish smile on his face. His right hand rested on the doorframe of the city lord's manor as he grinned at Lin Xihe.
"I don't know when I became friends with you."
Lin Xihe frowned at the man who had appeared at the door. This time, she didn't move rashly. She sensed danger from this man.
She could only use words to stall for time and look for a loophole in his defense.
"Naturally, I don't have any ties with City Lord Lin. However, I do have some ties with City Lord Lin's husband." The man at the door smiled faintly, then raised his brows at Zhao Zizhao. "Am I right, General Zhao?"
"…"
Lin Xihe turned her head in astonishment. She looked at Zhao Zizhao in confusion, as if she wanted an explanation.
However, she saw Zhao Zizhao walking towards her and pressing down her hand that was holding the flexible sword with a light smile. At the same time, he said to the man at the door, "Let's go.
"You're a little late. I told you to move a few hours ago."
"At the time, I was at a critical juncture in my breakthrough, so I was delayed a bit," laughed the demon. "But now, it seems I didn't delay anything important."
"Hmph, if I hadn't been delaying, do you think I wouldn't have?"
Zhao Zizhao snorted, his expression sinister. The wedding should've been held at noon. However, since he hadn't received any response from the demons, he'd forced the wedding to take place at night.
Otherwise, the wedding would've been held at noon and the guests would've left.
Their plans would've been ruined.
"Zizhao, you …."
As she listened to Zhao Zizhao and the demon's conversation, Lin Xihe's eyes brimmed with disbelief.
She stared blankly at the scene before her, but Ye Zichen suddenly appeared by her side, pulled her behind him, and snorted.
"City Lord Lin, do you still not understand? General Zhao has been involved with the demons for a long time."
With that, he narrowed his eyes at the man at the door.
"Black Dragon, long time no see."
"Yellow Emperor, no, no, I should call you Emperor Ye now." The man by the door grinned. "It's been a while. Emperor Ye, you might not know how much I've missed you." "You're right," Ye Zichen said.
"What are you missing me for? Shouldn't you be missing Gu Li?"
Said Ye Zichen mockingly. "I heard he stole your base of operations, and now your entire demon race is holed up in some unstable sub-dimension like stray dogs?"
"Many thanks for your help, Emperor Ye. I'll settle my debt with Gu Li sooner or later, but this time …." Black Dragon smiled. "I've come to take over the Three Realms."
"You?" said Ye Zichen disdainfully.
By now, all the guests were on edge.
It was actually the devils who had come.
After experiencing the invasion of the Devil Race last time, it could be said that the people in the Immortal Region had deeply engraved the shadow of the Devil Race in their hearts.
Now that Black Dragon had appeared, they were certain.
He was a demon.
The peak-level factions of the Immortal Region had already drawn their weapons and were secretly circulating their spiritual energy. At the same time, they looked around vigilantly.
If Black Dragon dared come, he definitely hadn't come alone.
"That's right. Just me and my hundreds of thousands of Ironblood Warriors." Black Dragon narrowed his eyes and rubbed his fingers. "Last time, I really did lose to Emperor Ye, but I absolutely won't suffer the same fate a second time."
"Is that so?"
Ye Zichen was flabbergasted. His attitude was clearly mocking Black Dragon.
Zuo Mo stood in the back, her heart in her throat. The demons really had come. Meanwhile, Ye Zichen was still in a standoff with the demons.
Although it seemed like they were just exchanging words, everyone knew that the demons and the Three Realms would forever stand on opposite sides.
Fighting was only a matter of time.
"Emperor Ye, you don't seem to believe me," said Black Dragon with narrowed eyes.
"Your Excellency, do you have any tricks up your sleeve? Would you mind letting me see them for myself?"
With that, Ye Zichen's aura locked onto Black Dragon. However, Black Dragon merely smiled calmly in response to this.
"Since Emperor Ye wants to see them for yourself, there's no harm in letting you see them."
As his voice faded, Hei Long raised his hand and gently patted it. At the same time, he spoke with a faint smile.
"Take them all under control."
In an instant, the Demon Race's warriors suddenly appeared behind the guests. At this moment, all of them held sharp blades in their hands and placed them on the guests' necks.
So long as they wanted it, they could ….
