Chapter 3797

~8 min read 1,535 words

The War Clan, as one of the Ten Hegemon Clans of the Vast Expanse starry sky, was naturally also extremely extraordinary.

Everyone in this clan flowed with powerful war blood, possessing unparalleled physiques, as well as terrifying combat capabilities.

It could be said that if they were in the same realm, the cultivators of the War Clan would be much stronger than ordinary cultivators.

Various combat methods were also extraordinary.

Otherwise, how could this clan be known by the name War Clan; they were a naturally born clan of battle.

And right now, a group of War Clan cultivators appeared.

Almost everyone's gaze fell on the figure at the very front of the War Clan in the first instance.

That was a heroic and majestic man, his posture as straight as a pine, wearing a golden battle armor that shone brilliantly.

His hair flew, as if cast from golden molten iron, his whole body shining golden.

His whole body emitted a kingly aura, as if he were a God of War walking from ancient times, making people feel awe.

"It's him... Zhan Lingxiao!"

When they saw this man, bursts of boisterous sounds rang out in the venue.

This man was exactly one of the parties in today's engagement banquet, the War Clan's evildoer, Zhan Lingxiao!

And his status was not just that.

Zhan Lingxiao was also one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the Heavenly Court, Dou Mu Xie.

"Worthy of being one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the Heavenly Court."

Many people saw Zhan Lingxiao arrive.

With every movement, his momentum was like a rainbow, like a golden sun, emitting an invisible sense of oppression.

Making people subconsciously lower their heads, not daring to look him in the eye.

Only the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the Heavenly Court had such prestige.

Zhan Lingxiao's gaze swept around, his expression indifferent.

In fact, this marriage was arranged by the clan, and it was not something Zhan Lingxiao actively requested.

However, he heard that this Su family young lady was born as beautiful as a fairy, so he did not object.

"Brother Zhan."

At this time, a voice rang out not far away; it was Li Beidou.

Li Beidou and Zhan Lingxiao, both being one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions of the Heavenly Court, also had some friendship.

"Many thanks to Brother Li for coming to attend Zhan's engagement banquet," Zhan Lingxiao also smiled slightly.

And subsequently, Huang Caidie and Bai Fengyuan of the Phoenix Feather Clan also came up to build a relationship.

After all, Huang Caidie's sister was also one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions.

And on the Su family side, Su Hong and others also appeared, surrounding Zhan Lingxiao, their conversation carrying a trace of flattery.

After all, they had all heard that in the future, Zhan Lingxiao also had the qualifications to compete for the position of God-Child of the Divine Palace.

If he truly succeeded, that status and position would be extremely extraordinary.

With Zhan Lingxiao's arrival, the entire engagement banquet became even more boisterous.

Finally, not long after.

Deep within the Su family, rosy clouds diffused, turning into a rainbow bridge, crossing the void.

A group of pretty maids led the way in front, with crystalline flower rain flying.

Subsequently, the gazes of everyone at the banquet converged on a beautiful figure at the back.

That was a peerless young girl, whose already refined and elegant face, set off by light makeup, appeared even more beautiful, like dew under the morning sun, crystalline and incomparably moving.

Her posture was also graceful, although she did not have overly voluptuous curves, she was also perfect.

Because it was an engagement banquet, she did not wear a wedding dress.

She still wore a wide-sleeved flowing fairy dress, her lotus feet in snow socks and jade boots moving lightly, like a fairy walking out of a scroll.

Naturally, it was Su Jinli.

"Is that the direct eldest young lady of the Su family?"

"I've heard of her for a long time; it is rumored that this young lady acts somewhat out of the ordinary and is unkempt."

"But looking at it now, she is absolutely a peerless beauty."

"Indeed, even becoming an Emperor-woman of the Nishang Clan would be more than enough."

Some cultivators present were seeing this direct eldest young lady of the Su family for the first time.

In rumors, this direct young lady of the Su family had an extremely outstanding personality, did not take the usual path, and was even somewhat strange.

However, seeing her truly now, everyone's eyes lit up.

What a beautiful young girl.

With such appearance and temperament, so what if her personality was a bit strange?

Many people secretly envied Zhan Lingxiao in their hearts.

And Zhan Lingxiao, whose pupils were glowing with golden light like two scorching suns, also looked at Su Jinli.

Although he had already seen Su Jinli's portrait and so on before.

But seeing her truly with his own eyes.

Even Zhan Lingxiao, who was dedicated to cultivation and did not care about external things.

Had his expression moved rarely.

This woman's appearance and temperament could definitely be ranked even if looking at the entire Vast Expanse.

Even compared to some peerless proud women in the Heavenly Court, she was not bad.

Originally, Zhan Lingxiao was not very satisfied with this marriage.

He felt that the Su family was clinging to him and the War Clan, wanting to use this to create a closer connection with the Heavenly Court.

But now, after seeing Su Jinli, Zhan Lingxiao instead felt that he had taken advantage.

After all, such a beautiful woman was rarely seen in the Vast Expanse.

However, some people present suddenly noticed.

That was that on Su Jinli's beautiful pretty face, there was no expression.

Nor was there the slightest joy about the engagement.

And even...

Even emotions like disgust, aversion, etc., seemed invisible.

It was just a dead silence like stagnant water.

Although she looked incomparably beautiful, there was not the slightest vitality, like an exquisite doll, without the slightest life.

Some figures with quite good eyes seemed to have thought of something, a trace of strange light flashing in their eyes.

But they were very sensible and did not say a word.

Whether it was the Heavenly Court, the War Clan, or the Su family, they could not afford to offend them, so it was better to speak less.

Zhan Lingxiao clearly also sensed a trace of abnormality in Su Jinli.

He had also heard before that this Su Jinli and that Jun Jun Xiaoyao seemed to be very close.

Su Jinli also seemed to have been quite resistant to this marriage.

Looking at the situation now, it should be that the Su family had done something.

However, Zhan Lingxiao did not care.

And with Su Jinli's appearance.

Su family head Su Zhengyan and others also appeared, exchanging pleasantries with some Elders and high-level members of the War Clan.

Subsequently, it was some simple speech procedures.

During this period, Su Jinli stood quietly, without the slightest unusual action, just like a doll.

And afterwards, an Elder of the War Clan stood out and said.

"In my War Clan, there is a special procedure for engagement."

"That is for both sides to fuse a drop of their own blood into the Marriage Stele to conclude a contract."

Immediately, in the center of the venue, on a high platform built of warm white jade.

The people of the War Clan placed an ancient stele stained with mottled blood on it.

This was a ritual unique to the War Clan.

Zhan Lingxiao landed on one side of the high platform and raised his hand.

A drop of blood bead emerged and fused into this Marriage Stele, and the entire stele lit up immediately.

A blood-red pattern emerged on it.

Next, it was Su Jinli's turn.

As long as she also fused a drop of blood into it, the contract would be concluded.

Su Jinli, as if she were a puppet controlled by invisible threads, slowly raised her jade hand.

One could see that her hand was trembling slightly.

Her dense eyelashes were also trembling slightly.

A drop of blood bead emerged from Su Jinli's fingertip and slowly fell toward the Marriage Stele.

The festive atmosphere of the entire venue reached its climax at this moment.

On the Su family side, Su Zhengyan, Su Hong, and others had smiles on their faces.

Although some Su family members sighed in their hearts, they could not change anything.

On the War Clan side, everyone's faces were also filled with smiles.

However!

Swish!

A point of light emerged from beyond the sky!

That was not starlight, but a point of sword light!

That sword light tore through the void, crossed the galaxy, and fell straight toward the high platform, onto that Marriage Stele.

Boom!

A loud bang!

The Marriage Stele shattered!

The boisterous and lively festive atmosphere of the entire venue was instantly strangled!

An indifferent voice rang through the sky.

"The engagement banquet of the Su family and the War Clan, why wasn't Jun invited? Is it not giving Jun face?"

One sentence fell, and the whole venue was shocked!
