Capítulo 1123: Chapter 1124: Who Dares to Complete the Ceremony!
At the head of the grand hall sat the Sect Leader Long, while on both sides of the hall sat various influential and skilled experts.
Among them were the family experts of Peter, the top expert of the Rus Empire who had attacked Lin Fei at the Flying Heaven Secret Realm last time, Pharaoh Hu Ba from Egypt, Yamamoto Harumitsu, Island Master of Sunset Island from the East Asian Country, and Master Nitu, Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Saints Sect from India.
Even the Central Plains Sword Sect, Peach Blossom Sword Sect, Bat Palace, and Celestial Sword Sect sent important elders to attend.
All these pivotal experts from various secret realm forces in Asia attended or sent important elders, having all received invitations from the Celestial Dragon Sect.
More importantly, the bridegroom in this wedding of the Young Master Long Yunxie from the Celestial Dragon Sect was Qingcheng.
Each major force was now very clear about the relationship between Qingcheng and Lin Fei.
Their perception was that this so-called wedding by the Celestial Dragon Sect was actually aimed at Lin Fei.
Naturally, these giants remained preoccupied with the Earth Core Anomalous Fire that Lin Fei acquired, and everyone knew that if Lin Fei would appear, it would be a perfect opportunity to seize the Earth Core Anomalous Fire.
Besides many giants from various secret realms, Sect Leaders from various Pacific Ocean factions were also present.
Even though these Pacific secret realm factions knew that the wedding by the Celestial Dragon Sect was bound to stir up chaos, they had to attend since the Celestial Dragon Sect is the leading faction among the secret realms of the Pacific Ocean.
However, they already decided to keep their distance once fighting broke out between Lin Fei and the Celestial Dragon Sect, so as not to get caught up in a potentially dangerous struggle.
In the grand hall, the musicians of the Celestial Dragon Sect began playing festive music, and the hall was full of jubilance.
The Sect Leader Long smiled, standing from his seat with a glass of wine in hand, looking at the heads and sect leaders on both sides of the hall, and said, “Dear Sect Leaders, Elders, my son’s wedding today is honored by your presence. It truly is a blessing for our sect, I toast to you all!”
The heads and sect leaders on both sides of the hall stood up from their seats, holding their wine glasses, and said, “Congratulations Sect Leader Long, congratulations Young Master Long!”
“Hahaha, please!” The Sect Leader Long replied with cheerful laughter.
The heads and sect leaders then drank their wine in one go.
Outside the hall, near ten thousand people gathered in the vast square. Apart from a majority of Celestial Dragon Sect experts, there were experts brought by the major giants and those from various Pacific secret realm factions.
They crowded around the square, watching the direction of the palace gates.
Among the crowd in the square, a pathway was made, laid with a red carpet leading directly to the palace.
“The auspicious moment for the wedding is soon!”
“Our Young Master and Qingcheng, Qingxu Sect’s most beautiful woman, are about to arrive at the Celestial Dragon Hall for the wedding.”
“A perfect match, made in heaven!”
“I’ve long heard that Qingxu Sect’s most beautiful woman, Qingcheng, has an extraordinarily exquisite beauty; today we can finally lay eyes on such celestial allure.”
…
Thousands awaited the grand sedan, carried by a dozen men, approaching.
Beside the draped red sedan, there were four women in red dresses carrying flower baskets, throwing petals as they walked.
Through the red veil of the sedan, two figures, a man, and a woman, could be vaguely seen seated.
The man was dressed as the groom, the woman wore a bride’s red dress with a red veil covering her head.
“They’re coming, the groom and bride are here!”
“Unfortunately, as the sedan is shrouded in red veils, Qingxu Sect’s unparalleled beauty cannot be seen clearly.”
…
Under the gaze of thousands, the sedan shrouded in red veils moved toward the magnificent Celestial Dragon Hall.
Soon it entered the palace.
The red veiled sedan entered the grand hall and was placed in the middle. Two women in red stepped forward to unveil the draping red veil of the sedan.
Long Yunxie was the first to step down from the sedan, while Qingcheng, with her face covered by a red veil, appeared to be supported by the two women in red, but in reality, she controlled them as she descended the sedan.
Next was the wedding ceremony.
An elder from the Celestial Dragon Sect presided over the wedding.
Long Yunxie and Qingcheng, tightly controlled by the two women in red, began to pay homage to heaven and earth, and to their parents.
Since Qing Tiancheng did not attend the wedding, Qing Dong, as Qingcheng’s elder relative, sat at the head position, receiving the tea tribute.
The wedding was soon to reach its final stage, where the couple would bow to each other.
Like Qing Dong and many leaders and sect heads, all kept an eye out as to when Lin Fei would appear.
Some heads and sect leaders might harbored doubts, but Qing Dong was very clear that Lin Fei would definitely show up.
The Sect Leader Long, Master Nitu, Yamamoto Harumitsu, Hu Ba, and others were discreetly observing the movements at the massive great hall’s entrance, believing that Lin Fei would indeed appear to rescue Qingcheng, and would certainly not allow the wedding to proceed smoothly to its end.
The final stage of the wedding was crucial; whether or not Lin Fei would appear was the critical moment.
“Couple’s bow!” the elder presiding over the wedding called out, exceptionally loud, echoing not only in the grand hall for everyone to hear, but also beyond the hall for all to hear.
It seemed as though the elder’s shout was not just meant for the bride and groom, but also meant for Lin Fei to hear.
“Who dares hold the ceremony!” Just then, a cold voice echoed, accompanied by a mighty presence expanding within the grand hall.
With that cold voice, those seated in the grand hall, the powerhouse figures, immediately got a jolt, and nearly all eyes lit up.
They were enormously surprised not knowing when a cold figure had already appeared in the grand hall.
That cold figure was none other than Lin Fei.
Seeing Lin Fei’s appearance, all the heads sprang from their seats, drew their weapons, emitting bursts of magical artifact light rays, filled with mighty pressure and energy, saturating the entire grand hall.
Within the grand hall, ominous glints of blades and swords flashed, creating a tense and confrontational atmosphere.
No wonder all heads were this nervous—previously Lin Fei had proven too formidable, and even when they had joined forces, they failed to take him down.
Thus, Lin Fei’s strength had instilled considerable apprehension within the hearts of these giants.
What also made them anxious was Lin Fei appearing within the grand hall; none of them clearly detected how Lin Fei showed up.
Such speed was akin to a phantom.
“Lin Fei, you finally came, today I doubt you can escape from our grasp!” the Sect Leader Long squinted his eyes, flashing cold gleams like lightning.
Remembering the last encounter where he hadn’t had the chance to strike before being dropped with a sword by Lin Fei, the Sect Leader Long felt an intense desire for revenge and to fight back immediately.
Lin Fei’s face showed no emotion as he stared at the Sect Leader Long and said, “Escape? Why would I need to escape? This time I came to the Celestial Dragon Sect to defeat you all and make your sect vanish from the Pacific Ocean entirely.”
Upon hearing Lin Fei’s words, the faces of all heads and sect leaders in the grand hall showed signs of shock.
Even though Lin Fei’s strength was terrifying, the Celestial Dragon Sect was a massive faction of ten thousand members, with thousands of legendary warriors alone, being the leading faction among the Pacific secret realms, its strength stood undeniable.
It wasn’t something to be wiped out just at one’s word.
The Sect Leader Long’s face turned extremely ugly, holding back his frustration, he gritted his teeth and said, “Lin Fei, how dare you boast? Last time you simply got lucky with a sneak attack, but this time, it’ll be different. I’ll make sure you have nowhere to rest eternally!”
