Ning Rongrong, as if she were a walking corpse, slowly said, "I am willing to become Tang San's wife."
Another round of applause erupted. Xue Qinghe smiled at the two of them. "The ceremony is over. You may drink this cup of nuptial wine and officially become husband and wife." He handed each of them a cup and poured the wine for the newlyweds.
"Drink!" Xue Qinghe whispered. "Drink!" everyone shouted in unison.
Just then, a loud bang came from the sky.
A deafening roar shattered the tranquility of the banquet, turning the once splendid celebration into chaos in an instant. Everyone's horrified gaze turned to the source of the sound, where a streak of fire ripped through the night sky, shooting straight into the heavens. "What was that?" someone asked in a trembling voice.
"This isn't the kind of fireworks you'd expect at a wedding banquet, is it?" another person speculated, their face pale. Ning Rongrong and Tang San gripped their wine glasses tightly, exchanging bewildered glances, their eyes filled with shock and helplessness. Their wedding, their future, had just begun, yet it seemed destined to be swallowed up by an unknown disaster.
Xue Qinghe frowned as he looked at the sky, clenching his fists inwardly. He knew that this unexpected event might be related to his secret.
Before the flames had even disappeared from sight, a massive pillar of light suddenly descended from the sky, instantly engulfing the entire banquet area. The crowd screamed and scattered in all directions, the chaos reaching its peak.
"Who dares to cause trouble on the joyous occasion of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo charged straight into the sky.
The two soared into the sky, full of fighting spirit, ready to face the invading enemy. Their figures drew a graceful arc in the air before disappearing from sight. By this time, the banquet had completely descended into chaos. Guests screamed, and children cried in fear.
Ning Rongrong and Tang San stood in the center of the arena, looking at each other, at a loss. Their wedding, which should have been joyful and happy, had turned into such chaos. "Everyone, don't panic! Don't panic!" Xue Qinghe shouted from the high platform. An imperial aura instantly emanated from him, but a smile appeared on his lips, which he quickly concealed, unnoticed by anyone in the chaotic environment.
Just then, a huge pillar of light suddenly descended from the sky. The pillar contained a mysterious power that made everyone feel a strong sense of oppression. Then, a figure slowly emerged from the pillar of light. It was a red-haired man with handsome features and an imposing aura.
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble at my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's wedding banquet!" Ning Fengzhi's expression turned extremely serious, and he shouted sternly.
" Sect Master Ning, you've already forgotten me? Let me introduce myself. I'm Yan, a member of the Spirit Hall Golden Generation."
As he spoke, intense flames emanated from Yan's body.
Instantly, the temperature in the banquet hall rose sharply. The guests, already panicked by the sudden turn of events, were now even more terrified and at a loss for what to do.
" The Spirit Hall?" Ning Fengzhi frowned and asked, "Shouldn't you be in Spirit City? Why are you here?"
"Hehe, Sect Master Ning, I'm here this time to deliver a congratulatory gift to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect on behalf of the Spirit Hall," Yan said with a helpless smile.
As he spoke, Yan slowly waved his hand, and more than a dozen white bundles flew out of the sky, stained with red blood. "What do you mean?" Tang San's tone was full of hostility as he stared intently at Yan's face. The Bone-Piercing Nail had already appeared in his palm, ready to be launched at the slightest movement from Hidden Weapon.
"These are the spies that Sect Master Ning planted within our Spirit Hall. Today happens to be the wedding day of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, so we'll use these as your wedding gift. It's not bad." "Outrageous!" Several elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect shouted in unison.
"If you dare come today, don't even think about leaving!"
Tang San unexpectedly launched his Hidden Weapon. "Then I'll see just how strong this new son-in-law of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect really is." With that, Yan unleashed a powerful aura, the surrounding air seemingly distorted by the intense heat emanating from him. Tang San, in turn, summoned his Clear Sky Hammer.
The two quickly met in mid-air, Tang San used the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to move rapidly and approach Yan.
However, Yan easily blocked Tang San's attack, and his body burst into flames, instantly engulfing Tang San's body. Before the crowd's exclamations had even subsided, Tang San burst out of the flames, wielding a Clear Sky Hammer. With a roar, he used all his strength to smash the Clear Sky Hammer at Yan.
Yan sneered, raised his hand and waved it out, instantly sending a blazing flame rushing towards Tang San.
Tang San rolled in mid-air, skillfully dodging Yan's attack. However, before he could regain his footing, Yan struck again. For a moment, the two fought fiercely, with continuous booming sounds echoing in the air, making everyone present feel their hearts pound.
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the sky. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo fell directly from the sky. Both of them were seriously injured. Bone Douluo was spitting blood and his face was extremely pale. He had obviously lost his fighting ability. Sword Douluo was in an even worse state. His only remaining right arm had disappeared without a trace. He was covered in blood and was on the verge of death.
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi rushed directly to the side of the two Titled Douluo.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi also lost his usual composure. He looked anxiously at the two injured Titled Douluo, his hands trembling. He hurriedly summoned his Martial Soul to heal their injuries.
" Uncle Jian, how are you?" Ning Fengzhi asked, his voice trembling. Sword Douluo raised his head; the bleeding from his severed arm had stopped. He gave Ning Fengzhi a deep look and smiled, "That person was incredibly strong. Old Bones and I didn't even see his face from beginning to end; it was as if we were fighting against a beam of light."
"That person was really strong. Even if the Cowardly Man and I combined our strength, we were no match for him. We didn't even have time to use our Soul Skill before we were defeated."
Bone Douluo clutched his chest and stood up, panting heavily.
Not far away, the battle between Tang San and Yan intensified. Tang San had already suffered burns in many places from Yan's flames, but he still stubbornly wielded the Clear Sky Hammer and fought fiercely with his opponent.
Just then, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and landed in the center of the arena. It was a woman dressed in a purple robe, with an exquisite face and noble demeanor. She held a scepter in her hand, with a blue gemstone set at the top, radiating a mesmerizing light. It was none other than Pope Bibi Dong.
" Sect Master Ning, why weren't you invited to such a joyous occasion? After all, I'm Rongrong's aunt."
