Chapter 1218: Chapter 1218: The Grand Gathering of the Four Domains
Qin Zong glared with anger, killing intent was evident.
Xiao Yi, unafraid, wore his usual cold expression, indifferent to everything.
"Boy, let go of your hand," Qin Zong stared coldly at Xiao Yi.
At this moment, he suddenly felt how furious it made him to see Xiao Yi holding Guu Yunshang’s hand.
Xiao Yi said nothing, merely waiting for Old Master Guu’s response.
"Scoundrel," Qin Zong roared, instantly making a move.
The previous anger seemed to explode at this moment.
The fierce fist wind, straight at Xiao Yi.
"Ah... be careful," Fang Muxue exclaimed.
"Mr. Qin is at the Martial Arts Emperor level, in terms of strength, not inferior to the elders of the Qin Family."
Xiao Yi remained unmoved, instead shaking his head, looking at Guu Yunshang.
"No wonder Qin Zong waited for you for 20 years, yet you remain unchanged and pay him no heed."
As Xiao Yi’s words fell, Qin Zong’s fist had already arrived.
Bang... A loud explosion.
The intense momentum swept the entire hall.
The entire audience, apart from the two old family heads and a few guests, were all pushed back several meters under this momentum.
The surrounding banquet, too, instantly turned to dust.
In an instant, the entire wedding banquet was in chaos.
As the rumbling subsided, everyone looked at Xiao Yi and Guu Yunshang with shock on their faces.
Some worried, some surprised.
However, Xiao Yi and Guu Yunshang were unharmed.
Qin Zong’s fist did not reach the two of them.
A blood-colored barrier enveloped the two.
Above the barrier, the sword intent was overwhelming.
Instead, Qin Zong’s fist, striking the blood-colored barrier, was slashed by the overwhelming sword intent, causing his fist to bleed.
"Mere Second Layer of Saint Emperor Realm, overestimating yourself," Xiao Yi said coldly.
"Why?" At this time, Guu Yunshang instead looked at Xiao Yi with interest, asking.
She was asking, naturally, about what Xiao Yi just said, why she remained unchanged for 20 years, never paying Qin Zong any mind.
"Heh," Xiao Yi chuckled, "Your heart meridian has just recovered, your body is extremely weak."
"Do you know, the primordial power explosion of a strong person like Qin Zong, even a little aftermath affecting you, would be enough to cost your life."
Although Qin Zong was attacking Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi was supporting Guu Yunshang.
However, in his fury, Qin Zong did not hold back and punched down.
"Heh," Guu Yunshang chuckled, her laughter incomparably joyful.
"20 years, yet it’s a young man I just met a few hours ago, who understands me more than my relatives who have been with me day and night."
Xiao Yi smiled, lightly saying, "Perhaps you are waiting for someone, and I am searching for someone."
The two conversed lightly.
However, the surrounding guests were already in an uproar, shocked repeatedly.
"So strong, who is this boy?"
"Withstanding Mr. Qin’s full-force punch, and completely unharmed?"
"When did the Four-direction Domain produce such a remarkable heavenly talent?"
The guests exclaimed, suddenly, someone remembered, "It’s him? I remember now, it’s him, Xiao Yi."
"A month ago, when the Eight Palace Martial Artists joined forces to hunt the evil cultivator in the Tianling Forest, I saw him."
"That day, the Eight Palace Deputy Master couldn’t deal with the evil cultivator, later it was this person who trapped the evil cultivator, giving us time."
Among the guests, there were also some strong people from the Eight Palace Main Hall of the Four-direction Domain, naturally recognizing Xiao Yi.
"However," someone else suddenly said, "I heard this person is extremely arrogant, and later failed to trap the evil cultivator, even spoiled the Eight Palace’s major event."
"Unexpectedly he still has the face to appear here."
"It’s not that," suddenly, another person said solemnly, "Not long ago, the Eight Palaces had already issued a notice."
"It’s not that this person failed to trap the evil cultivator, he was just too lazy to waste time and directly killed that evil cultivator."
"Now, the threat of the evil cultivator has been removed, I heard that the Eight Palaces plan to greatly reward this person."
"What?" The surrounding guests were astonished.
"The evil cultivator that even the Eight Palace Deputy Master and the tens of thousands of Chief Stewards of Eight Palaces couldn’t deal with, was killed by this person?"
"This boy looks at most 22 or 23, right?"
"No wonder he is so strong, withstanding Mr. Qin’s full-force punch without making a move."
The surrounding guests talked continuously.
Xiao Yi ignored them, instead staring directly at Old Master Guu.
"Old Master Guu, I am still waiting for your answer."
"This..." Old Master Guu furrowed his brow, hesitating.
Xiao Yi coldly shook his head, "I think matters of the heart should be mutual consent."
"Otherwise, today the hall is filled with red, tomorrow white lamps will hang high, what’s the point?"
Old Master Guu heard this, his pupils contracted.
After a while, Old Master Guu sighed, "Fine, little friend speaks the truth."
"Yunshang doesn’t wish it, forcing it is useless."
"Then let it be as little friend wishes."
After Old Master Guu spoke, he suddenly seemed to age more than a decade.
Xiao Yi nodded, helping Guu Yunshang up, "Let’s go."
"Hmm," Guu Yunshang nodded.
Fang Muxue and the maid saw this, quickly followed.
The guests were still in a daze, it was hard for them to accept today’s events.
Elder Qin and Qin Zong, however, were full of anger.
"Family Master Guu, do you really intend to go your own way?" Elder Qin asked seriously.
Family Master Guu shook his head, "It’s not that I want to go my own way, but what the young friend said is right."
"Sigh..." Family Master Guu wanted to say something, but in the end, didn’t, only sighed heavily.
"Fine, very well," Elder Qin slammed the table and stood up.
"Since that’s the case, then Guu Family, let’s see at the Four-direction Competition."
"Hmph."
Having said this, Elder Qin snorted angrily and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Qin Zong, full of anger, but still left in fury.
...
In the Guu Family’s rear courtyard, still inside that boudoir.
Xiao Yi helped Guu Yunshang onto the bed.
"Senior Yunshang’s body is still weak, and needs elixir elixir for nourishment, and plenty of rest."
"Hmm," Guu Yunshang nodded.
Xiao Yi turned around, but saw Fang Muxue and the maid looking strange.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Yi frowned.
He remembered, just now on the way back to this boudoir from the hall, these two had been like this all along.
"That... that..." Fang Muxue’s face was slightly red, "What you said earlier in the hall..."
"That..."
Fang Muxue stammered.
"What?" Xiao Yi frowned and asked.
On the side, Guu Yunshang smiled, "Muxue, you misunderstood the little friend Xiao Yi’s meaning."
"At my age, I am more than capable of being mother to little friend Xiao Yi."
"But..." Fang Muxue wanted to say something, but couldn’t.
Xiao Yi glanced at the two, frowning, "Nonsensical."
Guu Yunshang looked seriously at Xiao Yi, "Little friend Xiao Yi, may I ask why you are helping me like this?"
Xiao Yi smiled, "I come from the Wind Saint Territory, Senior Liu Cangmang and I have some acquaintance."
"What." Guu Yunshang suddenly surprised.
...
Second Chapter.
