And once this matter is known, both parties involved in the marriage alliance will suffer a significant loss of reputation.
But the most seriously damaged reputation is that of their male side, the Lan Qing lineage!
Imagine, on the wedding day, Lan Qingfeng’s fiancee ran away with another man!
This is a disgrace!
“As the head of Lan Qing vein, we are truly sorry that this has happened…” Yuan Shan was also furious, but at this moment he could only lower his head and apologize.
He knew the fault was definitely on their side.
“No need to rush.”
At this time, Lan Qingfeng, who had been silent all along, spoke.
Yuanshan looked at Lan Qingfeng and said, “Young Master Lan, I am truly sorry for this matter. We will definitely retrieve Yue’er as soon as possible…”
“Give me another fifteen minutes.” Lan Qingfeng’s handsome face showed no expression, and his long, narrow eyes flickered with a cold light.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shan’s face changed slightly, and he asked, “What does Young Master Lan mean by that…”
“Our Lanqing lineage and your Yuanshan lineage’s marriage alliance has already been announced to the entire Southern脈系. Naturally, it cannot be broken off or have any accidents.” Lan Qingfeng said nonchalantly.
At this time, even Lan Qingyang beside him and the many core members in the back didn’t understand what Lan Qingfeng meant.
“What I mean is, the wedding feast must continue.” Lan Qingfeng glanced at the many cultivators before him and said, “If we can’t find Yuan Shan Yue’s true self, then we’ll create a Yuan Shan Yue. In short…the wedding must be completed.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shan’s expression changed, while Lan Qingyang beside him beamed and said, “That’s right! This is the best way to respond!”
In any case, today’s wedding feast must be completed!
As for whether the marriage with Lan Qingfeng was Yuan Shan Yue’s true self, that doesn’t matter.
Their two families’ marriage was primarily for the benefit of their bloodlines, to increase their influence and voice within the southern branch.
“Therefore, Lord of the Yuan Mountains, within a quarter of an hour, if Yuan Shan Yue is not found within that time, then follow my method.” Lan Qingfeng looked straight at Yuan Shang, and said.
“What if we find Yue’er’s true form afterwards?” Yuan Shan fell silent for a moment before asking.
“She ran away with another man on her wedding day, causing immense damage to the reputation of both our lineages. I think… according to the Yushan lineage’s family rules, she should be severely punished, right?” Lan Qingfeng narrowed his long, narrow eyes and asked.
Yuan Shan already felt the chill in Lan Qingfeng’s tone, and his heart sank.
He has understood Lan Qingfeng’s meaning.
No matter how rebellious Ke Yuan Shan Yue is, she is still his daughter, his biological daughter!
Even if one committed grave errors, it wouldn’t warrant a death sentence!
“Lan Qing, young master, this is…” Yuan Shan raised his eyes and said.
“Rest assured, I didn’t say I necessarily had to kill her. But I definitely have to find her and imprison her permanently, so she won’t appear before any cultivators…” Lan Qingfeng said.
“If we could bring her back, she could still be yours…” Yuan Shang cried urgently.
“No, she no longer has a chance.” Lan Qingfeng’s voice was cold, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. “I gave her an opportunity, but she didn’t cherish it.”
”
“Master Yuanshan, don’t judge my mood based on my expression.” Lan Qingfeng took a step forward, his voice filled with endless coldness. “In fact, I am very angry right now. If Yuan Shan Yue were to appear before me, I might kill her with my own hands.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shan’s face changed drastically and he took a step back.
And at this moment, Lan Qingfeng had already walked to a chair beside him and sat down, saying, “One quarter of an hour. Now the counting begins.”
……
“You’re pretty brave, aren’t you? You dare to run away in this situation? If you get caught, you’ll be lucky to live.”
At this very moment, Fang Yu and Hong Yaizu are walking by the spring with Yan Yu and Yuan Shan Yue.
Divine sense sweeping the sky, cultivators flitting through the air… none of them could detect them.
For this kind of means, Yan Yu and Yuan Shan Yue were naturally shocked.
But they gradually accepted the situation and were even more curious about Fang Yu’s identity.
“Oh, she barely escaped with her life, you would have died for sure.” Hong Ya zu turned to Yan Yu and said.
Yet, Yan Yu didn’t show a shred of fear. She held onto Yuan Shan Yue tightly and said with conviction: “Even if I die, I won’t let go! To be able to accompany Yue’er to the underworld, I would die without regret!”
“What a lovestruck fool,” Hong Yaizu sneered from the side. “Just lacking in brains.”
“Alright, answer me a few questions and I’ll let you go. As for whether you end up facing the underworld together or becoming a couple, that depends on your own fate,” Fang Yu said, unconcerned with Yan Yu and Yuan Shan Yue’s love story.
“Go ahead and ask. Once you’re done, we have to leave here.” Yuanshan Yue’s face was still pale, her eyes full of worry.
“Okay, the first question is, regarding the two families involved in this marriage alliance, namely the Lanqing and Yuanshan lineages, who is stronger? And what rank do they hold within the Southern lineage system? I need a detailed explanation.” Fang Yu stated.
“The Lan Qing lineage in the Southern Meridian system… belongs to the top ten bloodlines. Our bloodline is a bit weaker… but it’s also within the top fifteen.” Yuanshan Yue replied.
“So, the purpose of your marriage alliance is still to elevate your status, right?” Fang Yu asked.
Yuan Shan Yue’s face flashed a hint of anger, biting her red lips and saying: “Right…it’s to enhance influence that Father made me become Dao partners with Lan Qing Feng, even though we barely knew each other before…”
“Where are the Four Great Venerables located?” Fang Yu thought for a moment and asked again.
“The Four Great Saints?”
Upon hearing this, Yuanshan Yue was taken aback. Her beautiful eyes widened as she shook her head and said, “The Four Great Saints should be on Saint Venerable Mountain, but their exact location… I don’t know. Beings of their level are elusive…”
“Are you looking for the Four Great Saints?”
“Yeah, I want to find them.” Fang Yu nodded and replied.
“Aren’t you part of the Southern Meridian lineage? Why ask these questions?” Yuanshan Yue asked in bewilderment.
“Hey hey hey, it’s your big brother asking you a question, not for you to ask me one! Get it straight!” Hong Yaizu frowned on the side and said in a deep voice.
“Yes, I’m sorry.” Yuanshan Yue said in a small voice, startled.
“Let me tell you, we truly know nothing about this intelligence. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be asking you.” Fang Yu smiled faintly.
“Huh? Aren’t you guys… from the Southern Pulse Lineage?” Yuanshan Yue raised her head, asking in surprise.
“Of course not, in fact, we’re not even from the Shengwen Clan.” Fang Yu said with a smile.
And at this moment, Hong Yaizu beside him had realized what Fang Yu wanted to do. He immediately turned his head and cooperated, his face solemn, his tone laced with killing intent: “Big brother, since you’ve spoken about this matter, you can’t let the two of them live…”
