Mr. Qin has been roaming the world of women for so many years, it seems he's finally going to crash and burn...

The wedding was nearly ruined by Meng Qingying's fatal blow...

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence could tell that the Li Clan, Cheng, and Ju Clan here are all the groom's romantic partners, right? By the way, why isn't the last one from the Meng family, but Little Meng?

Never mind, as the guests looked at the winged girls' faces, which were flushed with anger, they were all thinking: Fight! Fight! If you ruin this, we'll still have a chance!

Gu Shuanglin was originally planning to cause trouble, but seeing this, he suppressed his original plan, thinking to himself that if it really fell through, he might be able to change his plan... He never expected that Qin Yi, whom he felt was unshakeable, would actually be burned to death by his woman's backyard fire. Hahaha, so satisfying.

Where did Li Jiuyou get that list? That's impressive! It's really unfair of him to have said so earlier...

The "hero" Li Jiuyou was covered in sweat.

He noticed that only a small number of the winged women were glaring angrily at the groom; most of their gazes were directed at him.

Whatever problems the groom has are internal issues. Disrupting our wedding is a blatant disgrace to our Winged Human Race! Even if you wanted to expose the groom's misdeeds, why didn't you do it privately? We have three days to prepare; it's not like we don't have time!

It was intentional, wasn't it?

Seeing the girls' hands on their Moon Blade, Li Jiuyou suspected that the first one to be splattered with blood would definitely not be the groom, but himself.

But the Young Master would never step forward to take the blame, so he could only play the role of the scapegoat, sitting there wiping his sweat until his neck was stiff.

Qin Yi, also sweating profusely, stared at him, knowing it had nothing to do with Li Jiuyou. The two men, both drenched in sweat, stared at each other for a moment before Qin Yi forced a smile and spoke, "Um, Brother Li, did you run into my close friend Little Meng?"

Li Jiuyou thought to himself, "Wow, that's brilliant!" The word "close friend" was extremely clever. It flattered the Young Master while also implying that the guest was just a friend, and who knows, maybe even a man... He wasn't stupid, and immediately replied, "Yes, Meng... um, Fellow Daoist Meng, I met you yesterday. Your magnanimity, wisdom, and open-mindedness impressed me greatly, and I consider you a mentor..."

Qin Yi thought to himself, "You're pretty impressive too. You cooperated well, even using 'fellow Daoist' to blur the gender lines. You're quite the flatterer." He, of course, knew how to cooperate and immediately said, "It's been so many years! I've missed Little Meng terribly. Now that this matter is settled, Brother Li, you must introduce me to her. I want to talk with her all night long, until we're both drunk!"

The guests were all stunned. He was being so direct and frank. Could it be that Little Meng really was a man?

Minghe's gaze toward Meng Qingying became very strange.

Meng Qingying couldn't defend herself on the spot, so she could only watch helplessly as her subordinates and Qin Yi cooperated... The two of them were flattering each other in a strange way, neither angry nor laughing, their expressions were extremely bizarre.

Minghe Andao, is that all you're capable of? You only have a desperate attack and no follow-up moves... Who told you to be so stubborn, Little Meng? If you had just spoken the truth about the Meng family, he wouldn't have been able to find a loophole.

Meng Qingying glared. He's just my Cauldron, why should I call myself Meng? Little Meng is already giving him face enough. You're not even as good as me. If you're so capable, why don't you call yourself Little Ming?

Minghe tilted her head in a huff.

It seems he's going to pull himself together...

The scene was indeed much more pleasant now, and Qin Yi continued to smooth things over, "My friend has brought the blessings of the people of Shenzhou. This is the best gift I have received this time. It is so rare that even ten thousand Law Treasure would not be possible. Thank you, Brother Li."

Li Jiuyou said, "You're too kind. I should thank Fellow Daoist Meng."

The scene was harmonious.

The Liusu dog held the melon, while the Xi Yue in the sky stroked its forehead, and everyone stared in astonishment.

A man's will to survive can unleash an incredibly powerful potential.

This is an art of careful word choice. "Family"—what does that mean? Elders or wife? Openly expressing gratitude for this best gift, yet being so vague about it, leaves uninformed onlookers confused.

Most people will likely be led to think that—well, that's true, Li Jiuyou isn't going to be stubborn enough to cause trouble at the wedding. Maybe everyone has misunderstood; maybe it's just a friend bringing blessings from an elder. Don't overthink it.

Even if the clever ones know there must be a problem here, it doesn't matter. This has already given the Winged Human Race the best way out. It would be foolish for the Winged Human Race not to follow the way out.

This kind of knowledge, which requires careful word choice, was spoken fluently and smoothly by Qin Yi in the blink of an eye, as if it were innate...

As expected, Yu Shang wasn't stupid. Could she really have ruined her wedding? Since a way out was presented to her, she naturally took it smoothly. "I didn't expect Brother Li to know my Husband's close friend. I must arrange for Yu Shang Chang to pay him a visit another day."

"Of course, of course." Li Jiuyou let out a long sigh, and exchanged another glance with Qin Yi. The two men, who were originally rivals in love, suddenly felt a sense of mutual respect.

This is a revolutionary friendship forged in battle!

Yu Shang Chang secretly pinched Qin Yi's waist with her slender hand, twisted it subtly without leaving a trace, and whispered in his ear, "I'll settle the score with you after the wedding."

Qin Yi's eyes bulged from the pain. Yu Shang Chang was Martial Cultivation... indeed, women are not to be trifled with. She had been kneeling before Yu Chang, who claimed to be devoted to her husband, but now she was ruthless when it came to pinching soft flesh.

To outsiders, all they could see was Yu Shang smiling sweetly as she leaned against Qin Yi, seemingly very affectionate. Minghe and Meng Qingying, however, saw it all clearly and were seething with resentment.

We didn't twist it! What right do you have to twist it?

Yu Lan sighed and continued reading the gift list. Minghe glanced at Meng Qingying again, her eyes signaling, "You're full of bad intentions, stop messing around, aren't you?"

Meng Qingying returned a helpless look.

There needs to be a tacit understanding between us when we cause trouble. Minghe, you can only speak sarcastically, and I, Little Meng, can only speak through my subordinates. It would be too ugly for me to jump out and cause trouble myself. Trouble with Qin Yi is a minor matter; he's in the wrong and can only suffer in silence. But the Winged Human Race aren't shameless; they're a renowned race of the Great Wilderness. Do we really want to make this a fight to the death?

Meng Qingying and the Winged Human Race have a disagreement on their routes, but they don't intend to create deep-seated hatred. If everyone is rational, they can expect to negotiate. What kind of talk is it to make things so ugly over personal matters?

The two looked at each other, completely at a loss.

Minghe thought for a moment and gave the two sisters a way out, saying in a telepathic message, "What he meant just now was that this wedding has another purpose, maybe it's just for show. If we go too far, we'll be used as pawns by others. That's enough."

Meng Qingying was taken aback for a moment, then transmitted her voice, "You've been fooled by the Peach Blossom Spirit, haven't you? Who would dare cause trouble at Winged Human Race wedding?"

Minghe looked at her with annoyance, her face saying: Aren't you one?

Meng Qingying chuckled and transmitted her voice, "It would be great if someone really caused trouble. We came here precisely because we didn't want to see them hold a banquet. As long as there's no banquet, what does it matter if they play around with a few bastards? Shouldn't we thank someone for ruining this banquet for us?"

Minghe retorted angrily, "That's not why I came!"

Meng Qingying laughed heartily, "Yes, yes, you're here to perform rituals and collect money, hahaha... Do you accept money for serving someone in bed? Hahaha..."

Minghe was so angry that she almost cried; her reputation was completely ruined.

Gu Shuanglin sighed. His hopes of having someone else disrupt the wedding were completely dashed. It seemed there was no point in relying on others; he could only carry out the original plan.

The only way is to use force.

Opportunities for such a concentrated gathering of leaders from all the tribes in the city are rare... The Winged Human Race's guards are primarily focused on external defenses rather than internal ones, making this an excellent opportunity. Although the arrival of the new Daoist Nun is a variable, Daoist Nun is only at the early stage of the Radiant Sun realm and will not significantly impact the overall situation.

By this time, Yu Lan had finished reciting the gift list. The High Priest, who had been watching the whole scene with a smile, finally turned his gaze away and said with a smile, "Today's ceremony is very simple. First, we will offer sacrifices to Heaven and Earth, then perform the mutual bowing. That will complete the ceremony. Come here..."

Yu Shang then took Qin Yi's arm and walked towards the altar. Just as the two were about to perform the ritual of offering sacrifices to the heavens, Gu Shuanglin's voice suddenly rang out from behind them. "Wait!"

Meng Qingying and Minghe were overjoyed and almost blurted out, "Thank you!"
