Chapter 21: The Wedding

Not only the Miter Clan, but within the next month, the officials of the Jia Ma Empire and the Yunlan Sect began to secretly clean up the traces of the Xiao Clan's existence.

Especially Yun Shan; it must be said that Yun Shan was also a fellow with powerful talent.

Had he not been trapped in the Jia Ma Empire, the Dou Zong realm would never have been able to stop him.

Less than half a month after obtaining the Break Sect Pill, he broke through; he didn't even have time to stabilize his cultivation before immediately coming out of seclusion to take action personally.

As a result, Yun Shan also felt a wave of relief; fortunately, he had come out of seclusion in time.

The Yunlan Sect had only been without him for a few years, yet it had become arrogant so quickly.

Based on Yun Shan's understanding of Yun Leng, although he knew this person had an overbearing style and acted arrogantly, he was still considered to have high prestige, and since there was no one else suitable, he could only pick the best from the mediocre.

As it turned out, he really had prepared a "surprise" for himself!

And the current Yunlan Sect was not as hopeless as it would later become.

Yun Shan easily learned that during the few years he was in seclusion, the Yunlan Sect disciples had begun to gradually become ostentatious.

That would have been one thing; they were young, after all, and should have a bit of youthful arrogance.

But who can tell me what is going on with this rampant bullying of the market? Why have so many of the original cooperative clans disappeared? What? They were replaced because others paid more?

A perfectly good cultivation sect, a holy land for cultivation in the Jia Ma Empire, was gradually trending toward becoming a mountain stronghold of bandits, tainted with a heavy worldly atmosphere, and its reputation was declining day by day.

Although Yun Shan hoped that the Yunlan Sect could break free from the jurisdiction of the Jia Ma Empire and be transcendent, he did not want his disciples to be this arrogant; if things went on like this, it would be finished sooner or later.

That disciple of his was also honest and simple; even though he was a Young Sect Master, he actually only focused on cultivation, ignored everything else, and knew nothing.

It is estimated that if things continued to develop like this for a few more years, a traitor could really lead enemies right into his secret cultivation chamber.

Without a word, the Great Elder Yun Leng was removed from his post for investigation; those who needed to be dealt with were dealt with, those who needed to be restored were restored, and those whose crimes were not serious were given a warning.

Along the way, he also dragged Yun Yun out for a fierce reprimand, leaving the little girl, who was only ten-something years old, sobbing; that aggrieved look was simply unbearable for others to watch.

After this combination of blows, the sect's discipline was cleared up. Then, Yun Shan began to arrange matters personally.

Especially regarding the condition he promised Xiao Han; at first, Yun Shan even intended to leave it to Yun Leng to handle, but now it seemed only he could do it himself.

Through the joint efforts of the three major forces of the Jia Ma Empire, they finally cleared away almost all traces related to the Xiao Clan.

In the end, even the city neighboring Wutan City had never heard the great name of the Xiao Clan. Only those who were also in Wutan City and those forces that had cooperated with the Xiao Clan knew of this clan, which had decent strength.

……

Let us put aside the changing winds and clouds within the Jia Ma Empire for now.

At this time, the Central Plains had already fallen into heated discussion because of one piece of news—the Pavilion Master and the Vice Pavilion Master of the Langya Pavilion were getting married. The time was set for one year later.

The entire Langya Pavilion was making grand preparations and spreading the happy news wildly. Preparing a year in advance was also to give many forces a buffer time.

The wedding of such a powerful figure and leader of a force as the Pavilion Master of the Langya Pavilion naturally could not be petty.

This was also the blessing of the Langya Pavilion disciples for the good result of the long-distance love race between the two newlyweds.

Some forces with good relations with the Langya Pavilion were too far from the Langya Pavilion's base, and the journey alone would take one or two months.

After excluding the time spent preparing gifts and the delays caused by problems on the road, plus sending invitations, selecting venues, wedding planning, and a series of other matters, one year was just barely enough.

And the Elder in charge of this matter was currently in pain and happy at the same time.

He was so busy every day that his feet never touched the ground; if his cultivation had not reached the Dou Zun realm and his strength were not powerful, his body would have collapsed long ago.

However, at the thought that after finishing this, he would be able to cultivate in the secret realm for ten years, his waist would no longer ache, his legs would no longer hurt, his teeth would be better, and his food would taste better.

Although he was a bit speechless about those two muddle-headed ones of his own, the matter had to be done beautifully.

At this moment, the two protagonists of the wedding were looking stunned. How come I didn't know I was getting married?

Yi Huang was the most confused; ever since she returned from the Xiao Clan, every time she met someone, they would say to her, "Congratulations, congratulations!"

Although she was bewildered, she could only hurriedly return the gesture.

Then, she inadvertently learned the news that she was to be married.

And although Xiao Han knew that the Elders wanted to help him propose to Yi Huang, how could he have known that they would skip the engagement and get married all at once?

So this is what the Elders meant by "keeping everything simple"?

This move caught me off guard!

How could he know that as his good brother and best friend, Ye Jianxin had worried so much that he had lost a few hairs over Xiao Han's affairs.

He happened to hear that Xiao Han had the intention to relent, and worried that if he dragged things out again, he might disappear again, and they would have to find another opportunity.

Therefore, he simply decided to go all the way and took it upon himself to prepare all the procedures for the two of them.

He would just let them go straight to the bridal chamber. Anyway, he, Ye Jianxin, had already decided that even if he had to sacrifice himself, he had to see his brother get out of the single life.

At this time, Xiao Han and Yi Huang were looking at each other in the room.

The blush on Yi Huang's face had not yet faded. As a maiden, hearing news of her impending marriage everywhere, while the other protagonist was right in front of her, she was simply too shy to show her face.

But since things had reached this point, what else could she do? Of course, she had to get married!

This was all for the sake of Xiao Han's face; if she were unwilling, the entire Central Plains would laugh at him.

It was definitely not that she wanted to get married, hmm, definitely not. She, Yi Huang, was absolutely not desperate to marry.

"Um... I'm sorry, Huang'er, I've put you in a difficult position," Xiao Han said with an apologetic look.

In his impression, this kind of taking liberties without the other party's consent was very unpleasant.

Although the parents and elders of both sides were no longer in this world, they should still have sought the other's opinion.

"Ah?" Hearing Xiao Han speak, Yi Huang, who was lost in thought, was suddenly startled awake.

Then she said somewhat timidly: "It's okay." But in her heart, she was thinking:

"Hahaha! Lao Ye, well done! That's how you should deal with this blockhead."

Seeing Yi Huang so understanding, Xiao Han was extremely moved in his heart. With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!

Subsequently, with an excited expression, he stepped forward and, under Yi Huang's shocked and shy gaze, tightly grasped her hand.

He said with an extremely serious expression: "I will definitely treat you well in the future and will never marry another."

Although it was still as stiff as ever, to Yi Huang, hearing it in her heart, it was the most moving love confession in the world.

In a world where the strong are respected, no one would be dissatisfied with a man having three wives and four concubines; he might even be praised for being dashing and romantic.

Venerable Yao also had many female confidantes when he was young.

And Xiao Han is even more qualified; if his strength were to be exposed, combined with his already high level of attractiveness, there would definitely be many people throwing themselves at him.

Therefore, this sentence from Xiao Han was already the most precious promise he could give a girl.

"Good!" Although the tone was soft, it held a firmness as eternal as heaven and earth.
