C201 Shameless
Han Feng's matter was like a fuse, igniting the anger among the major powers in the outer city.
The inner city was also not calm. The Marquis's Mansion joined forces with the Falling Pavilion to suppress Hongtian Academy, and some of the powerful Sword Cultivator of the Nine Saint Sword Sect began to walk outside. Not only the Tianfeng City, but also the other main city in the southeast. Or some unique training grounds, they all obtained outstanding results. For a moment, their reputation rose.
The one who kept the lowest profile seemed to be the Wuyan Palace.
It was widely known that Holy Maiden and Lin Shuang had refused the marriage alliance with the Marquis's Mansion and provoked the Palace Master of the Prodigy Palace. They had locked her up in the secret chamber and waited for her to change her mind. Otherwise, she would never be able to leave for the rest of her life.
In the Prodigy Palace, Bai Wangya walked slowly but his mind was worried about Lin Shuang. In the Palace of Prodigy. In the Wuyan Palace, other than Mrs Zhong, Lin Shuang was the one who was closest to her. But now that Lin Shuang was imprisoned, she did not know what to do.
"Have you heard? The people of Marquis's Mansion are going to formally propose marriage today." Two female disciples who were walking in front of Bai Wangya discussed.
When Bai Wangya heard that the two were talking about Lin Shuang, his ears immediately perked up. He wanted to know what had happened.
"But didn't Holy Maiden not agree? Could the marriage proposal of the Marquis's Mansion succeed?" The other female disciple was a little worried. If Holy Maiden agreed to this marriage, she wouldn't be imprisoned.
"It's not difficult to make a person submit." The female disciple smiled and revealed a meaningful look. The other disciple's expression froze, and then he nodded. Indeed, to martial artists, there were too many methods. Previously, Gu Xi Holy Maiden did not use it, but if Lin Shuang was unwilling to give in... Perhaps the Palace Master and Marquis's Mansion would not let her go so easily.
Bai Wangya's heart trembled when he heard this. This meant that the Palace Master and Marquis's Mansion would definitely use some underhanded means. This way, it would be even more disadvantageous to Lin Shuang.
"What do I have to do to protect Sister Shuang?" Bai Wangya was stunned on the spot. His tiny head was in deep thought. If he didn't act now, it would be too late.
"By the way, Sister Shuang seems to like that guy called Han Feng. If he also has feelings for Sister Shuang, he will definitely come and save her." Bai Wangya thought of Han Feng. At this point, it seemed like only Han Feng could save Lin Shuang.
However, Bai Wangya didn't know that Han Feng was Zhuo Mu. If she knew that Han Feng was the Zhuo Mu who participated in the death of her family, perhaps Bai Wangya wouldn't have made up his mind to find Han Feng so easily.
After making up his mind, Bai Wangya hurried towards Hongtian Academy. There was a distance of several miles between Hongtian Academy and Wuyan Palace, even if Bai Wangya was a True Martial realm expert. It took a lot of time to get to Hongtian Academy.
At the same time, silhouettes rolled down from the Wuyan Palace one after another. One Heavenly Yuan Realm expert after another flew towards Wuyan Palace. At this moment, there were more than ten Heavenly Yuan Realm experts that were rarely seen.
These people were all wearing the same dark blue clothes. They had a red round cap on their heads and a single-horned beast was embroidered on their chests. They looked like qilins. They were the Divine Beasts of Haechi!
Such clothes undoubtedly proved the identities of these people. They were the sinecures of the Marquis's Mansion and the leaders of the Heavenly Opulence Guard.
However, the one leading them was only a young man of the first level of the Earth Origin Stage. He had a proud and sharp aura, and there was a small cauldron pattern on his forehead, which made him look extremely handsome.
On the side of the Magnificent Beauty Palace, several Celestial Energy Stage warriors also rose into the sky, welcoming the arrival of the Marquis's Mansion warriors.
A peerless figure stepped into the sky, and his body was faintly discernible. His skin was as smooth as jade, and he was glowing with a multicolored light. He gave off an incomparably noble aura.
The moment they saw her, many experts of the Marquis's Mansion were slightly stunned. Even though they knew who she was, many of them were still dazzled by her beauty and lost their composure.
"Greetings, Ice Mist Palace Master." The experts of Marquis's Mansion bowed towards the Ice Mist Palace Master. The woman in front of them... Although she was already middle-aged, due to her cultivation base and cultivation technique, her face looked like that of a young girl, and she had a calm expression on her face. It could not conceal her exquisite facial features at all.
"Everyone has arrived at Non-Profundity Palace, and this humble palace is honored by your presence. I hope that the main hall can have a chat." The Ice Mist Palace Master had personally received the guests, which had given the people of the Marquis's Mansion a lot of face. Naturally, the people of the Marquis's Mansion would be happy to listen to the arrangement of the Ice Mist Palace Master.
In fact, with the identity of the Ice Mist Palace Master, there was no need for her to personally come out. It was just that Lin Shuang's matter had made the Marquis's Mansion very dissatisfied, so she could only personally meet everyone and give them extremely high treatment and respect.
Everyone walked into the main hall of the Magnificent Palace, and the Ice Mist Palace Master sat on the main seat. Her graceful and luxurious manner was fully displayed. The young man from the Marquis's Mansion stepped forward and bowed slightly. He said, "Father is very concerned about the Palace Master. He has specially asked this junior to greet him on his behalf."
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Marquis." The Ice Mist Palace Master said faintly, "You must be Guo Zhan. The son of Lord Marquis is indeed young and promising."
"Thank you for your praise, Palace Master." The youth revealed a smile and immediately sat down on a seat at the side. Although he was young, he gave off an extremely mature feeling.
Although Guo Zhan's surname was Guo, he was not Master Hou's biological son. He was one of his foster sons. Because of his outstanding talent and combat strength, he was given the surname "Guo" by the old Master Hou. He had high hopes for him.
In fact, the reason why he came to Wuyan Palace to propose marriage was because of the old Master's nurturing of Guo Zhan. He hoped that Guo Zhan would be able to walk out and meet the experts of various major powers, and make preparations for his future trip to Heavenly Opulence City.
If Guo Zhan could break through to the Level Two in these two months, the old master would even consider letting him participate in the Sovereign King Banquet.
Speaking of which, Guo Zhan was also a very famous person amongst the younger generation. He rarely met an opponent in the same realm. When he had broken through to the True Martial realm, he had accompanied the Marquis in countless battles and had experienced countless life and death battles. His character was bold and resolute, and he had always been liked by the old Master Hou. In addition, Guo Yan had lost to Han Feng. In Master Hou's heart, his position was becoming less and less like Guo Zhan.
"Ice Mist Palace Master." After taking a seat, Guo Zhan continued to speak. "We have come this time for the sake of my third brother, Guo Lian, to propose marriage. I hope that the Palace Master will not dislike it."
"What are you talking about? Third young master is a natural genius, so young. He will be able to reach the Level Three of the earth origin realm, and his future will be limitless. Even I feel ashamed." The Ice Mist Palace Master said with a smile, revealing a myriad of emotions.
"Third Brother is a heaven warping genius. Within a year, he can reach the peak of Earth Energy, and even break through to the Celestial Energy Stage." Guo Zhan was here to propose marriage, so he naturally had to praise his elder brother.
The Ice Mist Palace Master nodded slightly. Indeed, the Marquis had four sons. Apart from the fourth son, Guo Yann, who had lost all face in the wilderness, the rest of the people... They were all dazzling figures of god 's favored. The eldest son, Guo Yao, was already a mighty warrior of the Astral Martial realm. The second son, Guo Dian, had outstanding combat strength amongst Celestial Energy Stage warriors. He was not even inferior to the Ice Mist Palace Master. Further down, it was this third son, Guo Lian, who had also gone through hundreds of battles. He had hopes of making a name for himself at the Sovereign King Banquet.
At the level of the Earthly Energy Realm, there were probably very few people who could defeat Guo Lian.
"Everyone in Tianfeng City knows of Third Young Master's talent. In the future, he will definitely be like Lord Marquis, becoming a dragon among men. At that time, Holy Maiden of my Prodigy Palace will also be able to compete for glory."
Beside the Ice Mist Palace Master, a beautiful middle-aged woman spoke. Although she was only standing, she was standing very close to the Ice Mist Palace Master. It was enough to prove that her status was not low and that she was a lady.
In Wuyan Palace, other than the Grand Elder, the Palace Master had the highest status. Under the three Palace Masters, there was a wife position. It was equivalent to an elder. Bai Wangya's Master, Madam Zhong, was an expert of this level. This lady in front of him... Her cultivation base was slightly stronger, and her status was also slightly higher.
"I wonder when I will be able to see Holy Maiden? My foster father heard that Holy Maiden doesn't seem to be willing to marry into the Marquis's Mansion?" Guo Zhan said with a smile, but a trace of coldness flashed in the depths of his eyes. That day in the wilderness, countless people had heard Lin Shuang's words. It was a joke that caused Marquis's Mansion to lose all their face.
If Guo Lian had not been deeply in love with Holy Maiden and insisted on marrying Lin Shuang, the Marquis's Mansion would have broken off this marriage a long time ago.
However, when he thought of this matter, Guo Zhan still felt unhappy in his heart. He and Guo Lian had gone to war together. They had a deep friendship and were extremely unhappy with Lin Shuang's actions. If the Marquis's Mansion wanted to marry a girl, who knew how many beautiful girls would flock to them. There were also many people with outstanding talent, but this Lin Shuang just didn't know how to appreciate favors.
"Don't worry. Shuang is just young and insensible. When she marries into the Marquis's Mansion, she will feel the love of the Third Young Master." The madam said.
"I hope so." Guo Zhan took a sip of tea and gently placed the teacup on the table. His expression was calm, making people unable to guess what he was thinking.
"Since that is the case, please come out and see me." One of the Marquis's Mansion's reverends said faintly, causing the Ice Mist Palace Master to look somewhat displeased. Even though her Non-Brightness Palace was in the wrong, Guo Zhan and these consecrates gradually became rude.
"Holy Maiden is not well. I'm afraid it's not convenient for us to see guests today." Mrs Zhong spoke indifferently. She did not really agree with this marriage and her tone was not very polite at the moment.
"Is it inconvenient or do you not want to see her?" Guo Zhan laughed coldly, "In a few days, we will be a family. How can we meet guests?"
The faces of the people from the Marquis's Mansion turned somewhat unfriendly. Today's marriage proposal had not even seen the bride. How could they report to Master Hou when they returned?
"Didn't Third Young Master also not come?" Mrs Zhong did not give in at all.
"My Third Brother has important matters to attend to and cannot come. Please forgive me, Palace Master." Guo Zhan stood up and did not pay attention to Mrs Zhong. Instead, he explained to the Ice Mist Palace Master. He also felt that he had been rude earlier. No one could offend a powerful force like the Wu Yan Palace.
"It's fine. Holy Maiden is not feeling well and cannot meet guests." The Ice Mist Palace Master remained calm.
"Then let us meet. There should be no problem. Between family, we should be more concerned." Guo Zhan smiled.
"Who said that you are a family? Shameless!" A cold voice was heard, causing Guo Zhan's smile to freeze on his face.
