Feng Xuan thought she was afraid of the awkwardness in the crowd, so he put down his arms and reached out to hold her hand. Unexpectedly, the Lady Boss took another step back, avoiding physical contact.
The scholar, the cook, and the carpenter were also on the rooftop. The scene before them made them frown.
Feng Xuan was a little taken aback, but thought it was because of the crowd, so he let it go. He smiled elegantly and said, "Yes! You're finally out! Little Qiu, you're still so young and beautiful, and even more elegant than before. As for me … "He pointed to his temples," I've already grown old. It's been hard on you all these years! "
Speaking of the past, the Lady Boss's expression was very complicated, and the way she looked at him was also very complicated. Back then, he was handsome, humorous, proficient in the four arts of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. He talked and laughed like a great scholar, and the people he met were all extraordinary people. His friends were all over the world, and he talked and talked with great vigor. His cultivation was also far higher than hers. She thought that she had found the man that every woman dreamed of, but the reality was so cruel. After a storm, all the truth hidden under the illusion was so unbearable, and she finally realized what kind of person the so-called extraordinary man was.
She could not bear to look back on the past! The Lady Boss forced a smile and said, "It's just a few strands of white hair. It's good that you're out."
"Yes! It's good that you're out. At least you didn't wait for nothing all these years. " Feng Xuan waved his hand around, and said in a rhythmic voice, "This is the place. Everything I owed you all those years ago will be made up for today!"
"Good!" Someone took the lead to shout, and the crowd immediately responded. The guests of the tavern also ran out to watch this rare scene.
The scholar, the cook, the carpenter, and the stonemason seemed to be uninvolved in the crowd. They either looked around coldly, or looked down indifferently.
Inside the mud hut, Invincible Eagle scoffed, "Snakes and rats alike. Why are you making such a ruckus?"
Miao Yi, on the other hand, stared at the Lady Boss at the door. She was facing Feng Xuan, dressed in a bright red auspicious robe, and the crowd behind him. What caught his attention was the butterfly hairpin on the Lady Boss's hair. He opened his transcendence vision and stared at it, his heart beating a little faster.
When the ruckus died down, the Lady Boss calmly said, "The past is the past. How can it be made up for? "
Feng Xuan nodded and sighed, "Yeah! Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the past has indeed passed. Today, I have invited friends from all over the world to come and support us, so that the world can witness our new beginning with their own eyes! Little Qiu. I've already gotten grandpa's approval. Grandpa will hold a grand wedding for us in the Immeasurable Heavens. The past is already in the past. There's no need to wait, no need to be separated. We will be together forever! "He stretched out his hand again.
The Lady Boss, however, did not hold his hand. She calmly smiled and said, "Feng Xuan, you've been out for quite some time. I didn't see you inform me that you were coming out. Now that you suddenly appeared in front of me, regardless of whether I agreed or not, you arranged for people to arrange everything. Could it be that you're so sure that I'll definitely go with you? Where does your confidence come from? "He raised his hand and pointed to the surroundings, which were covered in red. Aren't you being a little too overbearing?
Everyone felt that there was something wrong with these words, but they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. Many people chuckled. They didn't ask for her permission beforehand, so this woman was unhappy.
The Old Ancestor of the South Pole even teased, "Feng Xuan, your wife is a little overbearing. You have to be prepared to suffer if you marry her!"
His words made everyone burst into laughter. She was the Devil Saint's granddaughter, after all. Although she had the confidence, she still had to go with Feng Xuan in the end. She was just throwing a tantrum now. She had waited here for so many years just to wait for Feng Xuan to come out. This was something that everyone in the world knew.
"It's worth it to suffer. I'm willing to do it. Please don't laugh at me. " Feng Xuan cupped his fists at the people around him as if he was begging for mercy. Then, he cupped his fists at the Lady Boss and apologized, "Little Qiu, I didn't think it through. Please don't take it to heart. I didn't inform you beforehand because I wanted to give you a surprise. Please forgive me! "
"It is indeed a surprise!" The Lady Boss nodded. Her bright eyes looked around again and again. Those who shouldn't have come had come, and those who should have come hadn't. A trace of despair and resentment flashed across her eyes. Finally, she looked back at Feng Xuan and said calmly, "I can't go with you now!"
Everyone was silent. Feng Xuan was stunned. "Why? Little Qiu, I admit that I was wrong, but … "
The Lady Boss raised her hand and stopped him. "Wait for one more day!"
Wait for one more day? Feng Xuan smiled bitterly. "Little Qiu, the reason why we set it today is because today is an auspicious day. It's not appropriate to miss the auspicious time, right?"
"It's precisely because today is an auspicious day that everyone in the cultivation world knows that you are coming to fetch the bride. That's why I have to wait." The Lady Boss tilted her head and looked into the distance.
Everyone looked at each other and felt that this woman was a little too willful.
Feng Xuan frowned slightly and asked, "Little Qiu, what exactly are you waiting for?"
"I'm waiting for someone very important to me. Today is the ninth day of the New Year. I won't give up until the very last moment. I must wait today!" The Lady Boss said in an unquestionable tone, "After today, I will give you an explanation. I will give everyone an explanation. Feng Xuan, I've waited for so long. Don't tell me you don't even want to wait for a day? "She looked at Feng Xuan with a little arrogance.
These words made Feng Xuan speechless. The Lady Boss had waited for him for tens of thousands of years, and he suddenly came here. If he didn't even want to wait for a day, it would be unreasonable. But he still couldn't help but ask, "Little Qiu, who are you waiting for?"
Waiting for someone very important? He was a little uncertain. Could it be that she was waiting for Demon Saint Yun Aotian?
"I'm waiting for the person I should be waiting for. I'm waiting for the person I must wait for!" The Lady Boss turned around and walked into the room.
Feng Xuan wanted to follow her in, but the stonemason moved in front of the door and blocked it. The door behind him was already closed.
Feng Xuan's gaze moved from the closed door to the stonemason's face. "Stonemason, why are you blocking my way?"
The stonemason replied, "The Lady Boss said to wait for a day!"
Feng Xuan frowned. "I have something to say to Little Qiu alone."
At this time, the chef also walked over and stood next to the stonemason. He said expressionlessly, "No one is allowed to enter the Lady Boss's room without permission."
Feng Xuan's gaze on the two of them suddenly turned hostile. But the Lady Boss's voice came from inside the room again. "Feng Xuan, if you have anything to say, we can talk later. Go and entertain your guests first."
Why did this atmosphere feel so wrong? The guests who came to support the Lady Boss looked at each other. In short, they couldn't see any sense of celebration from the people in the inn. Instead, they all looked cold.
Feng Xuan's face slowly changed into a smile. He turned back to the room and said, "Little Qiu, it's all my fault. Then let's wait for another day. You can rest first."
He turned to the crowd and cupped his fists. "Everyone, thank you for coming. Little Qiu has waited for me for so many years, it's only right for me to wait another day. However, I'll have to trouble everyone to accompany me for another day. I hope I won't delay your business. If anyone has urgent matters to attend to, you don't have to stay here. You can go to the Immeasurable Heaven's wedding another day!"
"It's fine!"
"Since we're already here, there's no harm in waiting another day."
The crowd laughed in response, but in their hearts, they were all muttering about the situation just now. It was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but because of the Lady Boss's words and actions, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it. At the very least, everyone's laughter was a little forced, but they couldn't express their displeasure in front of Feng Xuan.
Fu Yuankang and Cui Yongzhen, who had accompanied the Lady Boss, frowned. They could feel that the Lady Boss's attitude toward Feng Xuan was a little arrogant, as if she was looking down on him. This made the two of them a little unhappy. So what if she was the granddaughter of the Devil Saint Yun Aotian? Once she married into the Feng Clan, she would still have children!
The crowd laughed as they walked down the stairs. Feng Xuan cupped his fists to send them off. The sounds of drums and gongs in the inn's courtyard also temporarily stopped, and the guests who had come to watch the show also jumped down from the rooftop.
Most of the people on the rooftop had left. Feng Xuan turned around and walked to the side of the scholar and the carpenter. He said in a low voice, "You two, come with me."
The scholar and the carpenter silently followed behind him. It couldn't be helped. The two of them were Feng Xuan's attendants all those years ago …
On the other side of the mud huts, the confrontation on the rooftop of the inn had been witnessed. The Invincible Eagle chuckled and said, "It seems a little strange. It seems like the bride didn't want the groom to touch her. It seems like the groom was even given the cold shoulder! Don't you think it's a little strange? "
"It seems a little strange. Don't tell me there's really something going on?" Fu Qing rubbed his chin as he looked at Miao Yi and asked, "Ol 'Five, did you know something beforehand?"
Miao Yi was a little distracted as he said, "We'll know if we keep watching."
The inn's kitchen had already stopped cooking. There was no helping it, as the cook had already gone on strike. A few of the waiters were feeling bored, and were chased out by the carpenter who came in.
Feng Xuan was the last to enter. He looked around the kitchen, then walked to the stove with his hands behind his back. With his back to the two of them, he asked, "Little Qiu said she was waiting for someone very important to her. Do you two know who she's waiting for?"
"No idea!" The two of them shook their heads. They wouldn't say a word even if they were beaten to death …
Meanwhile, the original owner of the mud hut had arrived and knocked on the door once more.
Miao Yi opened the door and immediately transmitted his voice over, "What's going on over there?"
The man replied, "The owner of Tempest Tavern, Feng Xuan, has returned. He's preparing to escort the Lady Boss to the Realm Beyond Heaven for her wedding, but the Lady Boss refuses to leave!"
Miao Yi hurriedly asked, "Why won't she leave?"
The man replied, "The Lady Boss said that today is the ninth day of the New Year. The entire cultivation realm knows that Feng Xuan is here to escort the bride, and that she's waiting for someone very important to her. She said that she won't give up until the very last moment …"
Before the man could finish, Miao Yi's eyes suddenly widened, and his breathing quickened. He pushed the man to the side and dashed out the door.
"Ol 'Five, where are you going?" Xiong Wei shouted from inside the house. But it was useless.
'Promise of a thousand years?! Wait another two hundred years?! So what if I'm going back on my word?! ' Miao Yi didn't care about anything else. He immediately flew up to the sky above Tempest Tavern, facing the desolate desert and the heavens. He spread out his arms and circulated a powerful transcendence energy around them. Then, he abruptly struck down at the Tempest Tavern below.
In an instant, there was a loud boom, and the entire tavern collapsed. The courtyard walls collapsed, the buildings collapsed, and a huge cloud of dust rose up into the air!
PS: It looks like Sister Qiu's dagger wasn't put to good use. Um, aren't we being generous? Shouldn't everyone use their monthly passes as a token of appreciation?!
