The carriage and the guards following behind it were well trained, they had stopped quickly in mid-air
without their formation being disrupted.
Shang Qiu Meng Qian walked out of the carriage and looked at the maple tree forest: “Who is this. Why hide in the shadows? Please come out…”
A figure casually walked out of the maple tree forest as though they were merely taking a stroll through a garden.
Shang Qiu Meng Qian’s eyes shrunk when he saw who it was…
The great hall of the Bai Li Clan.
Crazy Sage, Bai Li Ren, the clan elders, the main branch descendants, and a well dressed Huan Qing Yan were seated within the hall.
Huan Qing Yan was wearing the luxurious gown, on her head was a Nine Phoenix Crown. Each phoenix was made of purple gold that was commonly used for making equipment, the eyes of the phoenixes were made of precious black diamonds; the excellent workmanship made the phoenixes look alive.
A Moon Pearl was on each of the phoenixes; it was a type of jewel that would inherently have a faint glow illuminating from it and the headdress was covered in various gems and jewels otherwise. The headdress was crafted by the most ancient craftsmen clan on the continent and was worth a city.
Huan Qing Yan was covered in accessories and had her head lowered. Although her expressions could not be seen, people would know that she was an absolute beauty just by looking at her excellent figure and slightly exposed snow-white neck.
Countless female guests were green with envy as their eyes roamed through the phoenix crown and gown.
This was literally the wedding equipment that all women under heaven would dream of.
Now, it was an attire used in an engagement ceremony, such overbearing wealth was completely crazy and ridiculous.
The male guests were more reserved; although they did not speak about it, they were equally jealous in their hearts. Shang Qiu Meng Qian was really putting a large sum into this event. However, a beauty like Bai Li Qing Yan was worthy of such a level of jewelry and clothes.
It was no wonder that Bai Li Qing Yan would attract the affections of the two most eligible Young Masters.
Great admiration welled up within the hearts of countless people.
Nan Gong Bei Cheng was displaying a neutral expression, while Bai Chen Feng’s face was extremely ugly.
However, the Shang Qiu Clan still had not arrived when the auspicious hour arrived.
The guests looked around with changing expressions as they exchanged looks. Some people sitting outside the great hall were starting soft discussions.
“Hey, see that? The auspicious hour has arrived but the Shang Qiu Clan did not appear!”
“Is it possible that they are backing out?”
“Who knows? But logically speaking, they would not. If they really backed out, it would be utter loss of face for the Bai Li Clan; they will not be letting the Shang Qiu Clan off easily. Instead of establishing a marriage union, it will turn into establishing enmity!”
“Say, do you think that Bai Li Qing Yan is actually jinxed? She had a child with Young Master Ya yet they did not marry. Now she is supposed to get engaged to Shang Qiu Meng Qian, yet he did not arrive when the auspicious hour was here. Is she being dumped again?”
“Maybe! When you think about it, Bai Li Qing Yan is quite pitiful. So what if she is a God Chosen, after being dumped by two men, her reputation will only become sullied in the future!”
“Is it possible that the Shang Qiu Clan was worried that Bai Li Qing Yan will not completely forget about Young Master Ya after marrying? To avoid wearing the green hat, they decided to…”
……
Everyone started to giggle at this point.
Such words and movements naturally entered the ears of the people of the Bai Li Clan.
Crazy Sage’s expression instantly turned black, he would have exploded immediately if it were normal times and would have thrown out all gossipers from the place after giving them a good lesson.
