Chapter 2206 - 2205: Gluttonous Banquet
This Wan Baochun’s mansion seems to have been prepared in advance.
Red lanterns, silk, they brought them out and hung them up just like that.
Everything is conducted in an orderly manner, as if it has been done many times before.
Tables and chairs were quickly set up in rows on the plaza in front of the pavilion.
The guests, each with their own thoughts, sat down. Some wanted to take advantage and enjoy a feast, while others planned to rescue their friends and stayed to discuss a plan with others.
The Peerless Beauty and Heavenly Scent Scroll in the void remained silent, with no one emerging from inside.
Someone found Wuu De and Xiao Ren and asked them about the situation inside.
The two laughed and said that it was more beautiful than the Immortal Realm inside, and they initially didn’t want to come out, considering it a blessing to grow old and die in there.
A group of people looked at them with disdain, not believing the nonsense of these two old slicksters.
Someone tried to incite them to oppose Wan Baochun, but they firmly refused.
They even spoke dialects, saying Wan Baochun was their most respected senior and anyone who made things difficult for him would be making things difficult for them.
No one knew what they were up to, so they left to find other experts to discuss.
All these words reached Wan Baochun’s ears.
He had a very good impression of Wuu De and Xiao Ren, thinking he could keep them as servants.
As night fell, Long Fei changed into a red robe and was pushed into the lady’s boudoir.
Inside, a woman still sat on the bed with a red veil over her head.
The door closed, and Long Fei glanced at the woman on the bed before sitting at a table in the living room.
He picked up a cup of tea from the table, took a sip, and said to the woman, "Your father is really strange. He insisted on having the wedding at night, making me look like a son-in-law who can’t face people."
The woman chuckled and said charmingly, "Aren’t you going to come and lift my veil?"
Long Fei laughed and said, "Rumor has it you are quite ugly. If I lift your veil, will I be scared to death?"
The woman was full of surprise and asked, "Then why did you agree to this marriage? Are you after my family’s wealth?"
Long Fei shrugged and said, "I had no choice; your father dragged me here. His mana is powerful, and I couldn’t beat him. If the lady is kind, how about letting me go?"
"You’re quite an interesting person!"
The woman chuckled, reached up to remove her veil, and revealed a stunning face.
Though the room was only lit by candles and dimly lit, it couldn’t hide her fairy-like appearance.
She extended her hand towards Long Fei and said, "Come and see, am I really that ugly?"
Long Fei walked over, standing by the bed, and scrutinized her from head to toe. "A melon-shaped face, jade-white skin. Delicate features, eyes like autumn water. With such beauty, why do you always cover your face with a veil?"
The woman covered her mouth with her hand and laughed, "You have quite a sweet mouth. I cover my face to prevent vulgar men from marrying me because of my beauty. What I want is a man with a pure heart, not those filthy people."
Long Fei laughed, "Is the lady complimenting me?"
The woman’s eyes sparkled as she said, "You’re an interesting person; I’m really quite taken with you!"
She patted the spot beside her and said, "Come, sit here. The spring night is short, don’t waste time."
Long Fei asked her, "In your wedding customs, don’t you need to bow three times and make nine kowtows?"
The woman said, "Those are common rituals, no need to adhere to them. Quickly come over, I can’t wait any longer."
"Alright then!"
Long Fei shrugged, went over, and sat by her side.
She squinted her eyes, placing her hand on Long Fei’s shoulder, and with a jade hand brushed across his face, saying, "What a handsome soul, my father has good taste this time, choosing a perfect husband for me!"
Long Fei laughed, "So next, are you going to eat me?"
The woman raised her brow, let out a dry laugh, and said, "Darling, what are you saying? You are my sweetheart, how could I bear to eat you?"
She flipped over and fell into Long Fei’s arms, gazing affectionately into his eyes.
Long Fei’s hand touched her face, sighing, "What a pity for such a pretty face, it’s just an empty shell."
The woman’s eyes tightened, her right hand suddenly transformed into sharp claws, and she fiercely tore at Long Fei’s stomach.
Long Fei grabbed her right arm, coldly laughed, "Miss, revealing your true form so quickly?"
"Who on earth are you?"
The woman was shocked, stretched her hand outward but was tightly restrained by Long Fei.
Her body suddenly swelled, bursting fiercely from Long Fei’s embrace, revealing a black creature with a goat-like form, horns on its head, a tigerish face, and a sturdy body covered in scales.
Long Fei stood up, looking at it with a slight smile, "So it’s the famous descendant of Gluttony, one of the Four Evils from the Ancient Era. No wonder you like to eat so much."
"How does a human like you recognize my identity?"
The creature’s voice remained sharp, only deeper than before, sounding rather eerie.
Long Fei said plainly, "You hid well, using fresh human skin to conceal yourself, but you couldn’t hide those greedy eyes. And to be honest, I have a disciple who can hear the hearts of Heaven, Earth, and Humans. Even the best-hidden demon can be heard out by its ears."
Gluttony was furious, "Are you talking about the Six-Eared Monkey?"
Long Fei chuckled lightly, "You’re well-informed, but unfortunately, you’re about to die. You and your father know how many cultivators you’ve devoured in Tian Cha City, and today is the day of your judgment."
Gluttony sneered disdainfully, "Do you dare to stop us?"
With a sudden roar, it opened its gaping maw, raising a black vortex in front of it.
The Gluttony’s Devour Sky Technique was also a spatial instantaneous technique.
The black void twisted, completely enveloping Long Fei, as if trapped in a separate space.
"Impressive move!"
Long Fei shouted, raising a fist and slamming it outwards.
His fist also carried space laws of black, tearing through the void in front, clashing heavily with the black void.
The collision of the two space laws resounded with a boom, a massive shockwave obliterating the grand hall into smithereens.
Gluttony’s body was sent flying by Long Fei’s punch, crashing out of the pavilion from the plaza.
With a crash, it knocked the first floor of the pavilion halfway down.
Finally, it swept across the banquet area of the plaza, dishes and cutlery clattering to the ground in disarray.
A group of people on the pavilion stood up with a jolt, and all the cultivators at the banquet were shocked and stood up.
Gluttony, shaking its head, just got back up, only to feel the void thunder with a crash, suddenly pressing down.
Long Fei stepped on the void, pressing down on Gluttony like Mount Tai.
Gluttony’s body rapidly expanded, turning instantly into a monstrous creature over ten meters large, bearing Long Fei’s force with its flesh.
Long Fei, stepping down, brought down a space, crashing down again with a boom, causing Gluttony’s limbs to shatter into halves, its whole body crashing into the ground, creating a large pit on the ground.
It let out a wail, and with its mouth open, screamed towards Wan Baochun on the pavilion, "Father, save me!"
