Chapter 574 Stopping the Marriage
Yan Guilai was very happy and began to prepare for his son’s wedding ceremony in a big way. From a moral point of view, it was reasonable for him to be happy.
The news that Yan Wushuang was getting married quickly spread throughout Yanxue City. The bride was Lady Bai Feng.
Bi Keyun was both happy and worried when she heard the news. She was happy that Yan Wushuang had finally given up Yao Baiyue and worried that Yao Baiyue couldn’t bear the news.
She ordered to seal the news of Yan Wushuang’s marriage and didn’t allow anyone to tell Yao Baiyue about it.
Yao Baiyue finally knew it.
As a woman in the Jianghu, Yao Baiyue didn’t have much experience in love. She even had less love than any ordinary woman. On hearing the news, she was stunned.
She had never thought that Yan Wushuang was getting married. The news shocked her.
“I’m going to ask him about it.”
Yao Baiyue refused to believe that Yan Wushuang would give up her.
Bi Keyun would never let her go to Yan Wushuang. First, she scolded Yan Wushuang for being a playboy absolutely without merit, and then she restricted Yao Baiyue’s freedom.
The reconstruction of the Yan family was about to be completed, and Yan Wushuang’s wedding day was coming.
“Do you decide to marry Lady Bai Feng?” Flaming Qilin asked as he looked at Yan Wushuang, who was in a daze.
Yan Wushuang’s reaction was dull, his expression numb, and his voice a little hoarse. “Do I have any other choice?”
Chu Xun remained silent. It was the business of the Yan family. Even he was Yan Wushuang’s friend but had no right to decide on behalf of Yan Wushuang unless he stood up and stopped it forcibly as Chu the Devil.
Since ancient times, the person deep in love would leave regrets.
“As the Young Master of the Yan family, it’s my duty to get married and have children for the Yan family,” Yan Wushuang lowered his head and said in a low voice.
“Bullshit. You don’t look like a bridegroom about to get married,” Flaming Qilin said angrily.
Thinking of Chu Xun’s expression when getting married, he was in high spirits. Yan Wushuang didn’t look like he was about to get married at all, but more like worshipping the dead.
“Goddammit, we are experts at the Immortal Level but can’t even pursue our happiness. It is really annoying,” looking at Yan Wushuang’s listless face, Flaming Qilin was unhappy.
“Qilin, please don’t defend me. It’s my destiny. Besides, it’s my duty to have children for the Yan family. My father is right. There are three kinds of unfilial people in the world. The people with no descendent are the most unfilial. I am indeed unfilial.”
“Stop being so stubborn,” Flaming Qilin said angrily. He turned to look at Chu Xun in silence and said, “Chu the Devil, you are the smartest among us. Do you have any ideas?”
Chu Xun shook his head and said with a wry smile, “We have no right to say in this matter.”
“Damn it. I can’t stand it anymore. What the hell is it? How could a father force his son to get married? I’ll go and talk to Master Yan,” Flaming Qilin turned around and left.
Yan Wushuang and Chu Xun did not stop him. Flaming Qilin would be frustrated.
“Would you like to have a drink with me?” Chu Xun asked.
Yan Wushuang shook his head.
Chu Xun was silent for a while, turned around, and left.
The people of the Tianyin Pavilion were also overjoyed these days. Marriage between Tianyin Pavilion and the Yan family was a big deal for them.
The Tianyin Pavilion was not as powerful as the Yan family. If they united through marriage, Tianyin Pavilion could be more powerful.
In fact, the people of the Tianyin Pavilion were not interested in the power of the Yan family, but in Yan Wushuang.
Yan Wushuang was one of the best friends of Chu the Devil.
The household of the Tianyin Pavilion was a charming man. He looked middle-aged but was hundreds of years old.
Lady Bai Feng was his youngest disciple.
In the Tianyin Pavilion’s main hall, the master looked at Lady Bai Feng silently. Although she was his disciple, he treated her as his own daughter.
“Bai Feng, if you do not agree on the marriage, I will reject it,” Ji Chen said.
Bai Feng was beautiful. Because cultivating in martial arts, she was much more dashing and heroic than ordinary women.
She smiled and said, “Master, why do you want me to marry Yan Wushuang?”
Ji Chen was silent for a moment and said, “I have selfish motives. Firstly, Yan Wushuang is indeed a rare young talent with extraordinary cultivation. Secondly, he is a close friend of Chu the Devil. I have to consider the Tianyin Pavilion.”
Bai Feng nodded and said, “Yan Wushuang is indeed a genius and a rare good man.”
“Bai Feng, I have said that if you are not willing to marry Yan Wushuang, I will not force you to do it,” Ji Chen sighed and said. He suddenly felt that it was wrong to make the Tianyin Pavilion come out. The earth was full of resources and opportunities, accompanied by great danger at the same time.
The power of the Yan family was stronger than that of the Tianyin Pavilion but still had been destroyed. Fortunately, the Yan family was lucky enough to have a relation with Chu the Devil and safe now. What if the Tianyin Pavilion suffered a disaster? Who would come to save them?
The Yan family’s misfortune had alerted quite a few powers. The master of the Saber-less City and the other powers also wanted to establish a good relationship with the Yan family.
“Master, I’m willing to do it,” Bai Feng said with a smile. “I’m a member of the Tianyin Pavilion. It’s my duty to support the Tianyin Pavilion. Besides, Yan Wushuang is a good man.”
Ji Chen nodded. Just as he was about to speak, a disciple came in and reported that someone wanted to see him.
Ji Chen noticed that the disciple’s voice was trembling, so was his body.
“What happened?” Ji Chen asked suspiciously.
“Junior brother, are you feeling uncomfortable?” Bai Feng also noticed the peculiarity of the disciple.
“No, I’m OK,” the disciple wiped the sweat off his forehead.
“What happened? Speak ahead,” Ji Chen said with a frown.
The disciple looked out the door and lowered his voice, “The guest is Chu the Devil.”
As a warrior in the Acquired Realm, seeing the legendary Chu the Devil, he almost fainted. He had no choice but to say Chu the Devil’s name.
Ji Chen’s expression changed drastically. He jumped to his feet and strode outside.
Bai Feng’s expression also changed. She hurried out.
The disciple wiped the sweat on his forehead and thought to himself, “I mentioned Chu the Devil’s name. He can’t hear me, can he?”
Ji Chen got out of the door with Bai Feng as fast as he could.
Dressed in black, Chu Xun stood with his hands clasped behind his back. The disciples guarding the door were trembling and in great fear.
“Chu the Devil, please forgive me for not welcoming you earlier. I’m Ji Chen, the master of the Tianyin Pavilion.”
Chu Xun smiled faintly and said, “I came uninvitedly. I hope that you won’t blame me for that, Master Ji.”
Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief when Chu Xun treated him with due respect. He had heard that Chu the Devil was a god of killing. He was worried about Chu Xun’s sudden visit.
Ji Chen hurriedly welcomed Chu Xun into the main hall. Seeing Chu Xun sat down, he hurriedly greeted him with tea.
“Master Ji, please sit down,” Chu Xun was speechless. Was he so terrifying? Here was the Tianyin Pavilion. He was sitting, but Ji Chen was standing.
Ji Chen didn’t know the reason why Chu Xun came here, so he didn’t dare to sit down.
“Master Ji, here is the Tianyin Pavilion. You are the master of it, and I am the guest. There is no such thing as a guest sitting while the master is standing,” Chu Xun chuckled.
Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Chu Xun’s calm voice. Then he and Bai Feng sat down.
“She must be Lady Bai Feng, the one who will marry Yan Wushuang. Right?” Chu Xun looked at Bai Feng and asked.
“Yes,” Ji Chen exchanged a quick look with Bai Feng.
Bai Feng stood up and respectfully said, “It’s my pleasure to see you, Chu the Devil.”
While speaking, Bai Feng was looking at Chu Xun curiously. Judging from his bone age, Chu Xun was much younger than her. It seemed that there was such a genius in the world. At such a young age, he had already reached such a stage. Not only his peers but also the warriors of the older generation were under his pressure.
Chu Xun asked Bai Feng to sit down. Don’t feel uncomfortable.
Ji Chen replied respectfully, “Could you tell us why you grace us with your presence, Chu the Devil?”
Chu Xun touched his nose and smiled bitterly in his heart. It was difficult to utter the words.
Ji Chen was puzzled when he saw Chu Xun’s embarrassed look.
“Master Ji, I come here to stop the marriage.”
As soon as Chu Xun said that, Ji Chen and Bai Feng were stunned.
“Why?” Ji Chen was angry. Although he didn’t show it, Chu Xun could feel it.
Chu Xun could understand. No one would be happy if they were stopped a marriage for no reason. The reason why they did not drive him out was that they were afraid of his identity.
“Master Ji, Lady Bai Feng, if I’ve said wrong words, I’ll apologize to you first,” Chu Xun smiled bitterly.
“Do you come on behalf of the Yan family?” Ji Chen asked in puzzlement.
Chu Xun shook his head and said, “I visit you myself. The people of the Yan family don’t know about my visit.”
Ji Chen was even more baffled.
“Lady Bai Feng, do you know Yan Wushuang?” Chu Xun asked.
Bai Feng shook her head and said. “We can know each other after getting married. As the saying goes, it is better to tear down ten temples than to destroy a marriage. Why do you stop our marriage?”
Chu Xun could only smile bitterly. “Let me talk to you about Yan Wushuang, Lady Bai Feng.”
Chu Xun told them everything, including the story of Yan Wushuang and Yao Baiyue, as well as forced marriage, and so on.
Bai Feng’s expression changed when she heard the stories. She looked at Ji Chen and said, “Master, please forgive me for being unfilial. I can’t marry Yan Wushuang.”
“Even if you don’t say the words, I won’t let you marry him,” Ji Chen’s face darkened.
Chu Xun was a little stunned. He had thought that it would take a lot of effort to persuade them and had already prepared some more excuses, but the reaction of the two was beyond his imagination.
“Thank you for the information,” Ji Chen said to Chu Xun.
“Do you agree to call off the engagement?” Chu Xun asked uncertainly.
“No matter how muddled I am, I will not force my disciple to marry a man with another woman in his heart. It is related to Bai Feng’s happiness. I will not force her to do it,” Ji Chen said.
“So it turns out that Uncle Yan has lied to us,” Bai Feng was a little angry. “I have heard about what happened between Yan Wushuang and Yao Baiyue, but Uncle Yan told us that Yan Wushuang had completely given up Yao Baiyue, so I agreed to the marriage.”
“Please go back and tell Master Yan that we don’t agree on the marriage.”
“I didn’t expect Uncle Yan to be such a person. Miss Bi is annoying.”
“Although our Tianyin Pavilion is not powerful, we will not give up the happiness of our disciples in order to establish a relationship with the Yan family.”
“I won’t marry Yan Wushuang. I am willing to marry whoever I want.”
They kept talking to each other and stunned Chu Xun. He was confused. He had thought that it would take a lot more effort to deal with the matter but hadn’t expected it to be solved so easily.
