Chapter 3427: The Bride-Snatcher Has Arrived
When Sha Chenghe was questioned like this by Lin Moyu, he couldnât help but look embarrassed. "Friend Lin, donât joke around. Thatâs the young master of the Wu family."
He emphasized the words "Wu family" heavily, as if reminding Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu said, "I know, the Wu family of Rift Wind Cliff. To you, theyâre a behemoth."
At this point, Lin Moyu changed his tone, "But I said earlier, if Wu Xingguang has any objections, I can resolve it for you. Whether itâs fighting or killing, that will be between me and the Wu family. It wonât involve your two families."
"The key is, what does Family Head Sha think? Do you want Sha Shinan to marry into the Wu family? Or continue with the marriage agreement with the Jiang family?"
At this point, Jiang Ruohui seemed to sense something was off. Lin Moyuâs words were all targeting Sha Chenghe. Though seemingly polite, they subtly conveyed suspicion.
Sha Chenghe also realized something was wrong. His tone quickly turned cold, "Friend Lin, what do you mean? Of course Sha wants to ally through marriage with the Jiang family. Shinan and Lixin are childhood sweethearts."
Even if he had other thoughts, he couldnât say them in front of Jiang Ruohui, at least not now.
Lin Moyu interrupted him, "Thatâs good then. As long as you have no objections, I assume the Jiang family wonât have any problems either."
Jiang Ruohui nodded, "Of course Jiang hopes the two children can be together."
Sha Chenghe couldnât help but ask, "What exactly does Friend Lin want to do?"
If not for the fact that he couldnât see through Lin Moyuâs cultivation level and felt some trepidation, he would have already angrily left.
Lin Moyuâs disregard for Wu Xingguang and his confidence showed that his background was not simple.
If they couldnât afford to offend Wu Xingguang, they also couldnât afford to offend this Lin.
Lin Moyu smiled, "Youâll know soon. The bride and groom are back."
He looked up and saw Su Pu flying back with Jiang Lixin and Sha Shinan.
The two were still wearing their red wedding clothes, not having changed yet.
Strangely, no one in the entire venue reacted to their return. It was as if everyone couldnât see them.
Seeing this odd situation, Jiang Ruohuiâs heart skipped a beat. "Could this be his doing?"
Jiang Beibei gave Jiang Ruohui a look, signaling him not to ask too much.
Sha Shinan was sweet-looking, a pretty girl, but her aura was a few notches below those from the Cold Water Holy Land.
With Wu Xingguangâs status, he could easily get beauties of Sha Shinanâs level.
So it could be certain that Wu Xingguang wasnât after the person, but after the Sha familyâs Spirit-Boosting secret technique.
Sha Chengheâs expression at this moment further confirmed Lin Moyuâs guess. Sha Chenghe craved power and wanted to become the lord of Floating City. He hoped to use Sha Shinan to latch onto the Wu family and become the true master of Floating City with the Wu familyâs help.
Sha Chenghe looked somewhat embarrassed, "Shinan, why are you with Lixin?"
Sha Shinanâs eyes were full of tears, "Grandfather, I donât want to marry Wu Xingguang. I want to be with Lixin. Please donât separate us, okay?"
Jiang Ruohui frowned, "Family Head Sha, whatâs going on here?"
Sha Chengheâs expression was awkward at this moment. He forced out a smile and said to Sha Shinan, "How could grandfather bear to separate you?"
Sha Shinan cried, "But I heard you tell that Wu Xingguang that you would consider it."
Sha Chenghe continued to explain, "It was just considering. Who made him the young master of the Wu family? The Wu family of Rift Wind Cliff, we canât directly refuse."
Sha Shinan wanted to say more, but Lin Moyu interrupted her, "Jiang Lixin, Sha Shinan, do you two truly want to be together?"
Jiang Lixin said, "Of course. In my heart, thereâs only Shinan. Even if I die, I want to be with Shinan."
Lin Moyu looked at Sha Shinan, "And you?"
Sha Shinan also said resolutely, "Me too. Even if I die, I want to be with Lixin."
Lin Moyu smiled, "If thatâs the case, then Lin will play matchmaker today. Continue with the wedding according to local customs. As for Wu Xingguang, leave him to me."
The two didnât know Lin Moyu and were obviously still hesitant.
At this time, Jiang Ruohui steeled himself and bowed to Lin Moyu, "Then weâll trouble Mr. Lin."
His form of address for Lin Moyu changed from "Friend Lin" to "Mr. Lin", expressing his respect.
Jiang Ruohui then said to Jiang Lixin, "Lixin, quickly thank Mr. Lin."
Jiang Lixin also reacted and immediately bowed to Lin Moyu, "Thank you, Mr. Lin."
Lin Moyu waved his hand, "Go on, do what you need to do. Itâs getting late. Missing the auspicious time isnât good. Iâm here. Wu Xingguang wonât be able to make waves."
Jiang Lixin and Sha Shinan immediately continued the wedding according to Floating City customs. Jiang Ruohui and Sha Chenghe also went back to prepare.
After they left, Little Mei giggled, "Teacher, did you see that Sha Chenghe? His expression was so funny."
Sha Chengheâs expression was both awkward and pained, as if caught in the middle, not pleasing either side.
Lin Moyu said, "This is what we call a fence-sitter. Jiang Ruohui isnât stupid. Although he didnât say it outright, he should have seen something. From now on, the relationship between the Jiang and Sha families will certainly not be as close as before. The Jiang family will probably be wary of the Sha family."
"This Sha Chenghe has some ambition, but not much ability. He should understand that ambition needs to be backed by strength. The Sha family is just a five-star power without even a single seventh-level elder. What qualifications do they have to latch onto the Wu family?"
Without sufficient strength, one doesnât even qualify to latch onto a big leg. This is the reality of the world.
Little Mei suddenly asked, "Teacher, whatâs this âYuelaoâ you mentioned earlier?"
Lin Moyu explained, "Itâs similar to a matchmaker, but a male one."
...
After Jiang Ruohui left, his expression was somewhat solemn. He said to Jiang Beibei, "Beibei, whatâs this Mr. Linâs background?"
Jiang Beibei said, "I donât know Mr. Linâs background either. When I first met Mr. Lin in the Eastern Continent years ago, he slaughtered Dao Venerable beast clan members like dogs. In the Thunder Secret Treasury, he walked around casually and directly solved its mysteries. Mr. Linâs abilities are beyond what ordinary people can imagine."
Jiang Ruohui said, "Iâm not doubting Mr. Lin. Iâm just wondering why he came here this time. Is it really a coincidence?"
Jiang Beibei said, "Perhaps it really is a coincidence. Back then, Mr. Lin did say he would come to the Jiang family. It seems to have something to do with Ruoxue."
Jiang Ruohui sighed, "At this point, letâs hope Mr. Lin can do as he said. Otherwise, our Jiang family will face great calamity."
Jiang Beibei asked, "Havenât the Dongfang familyâs people arrived yet?"
Jiang Ruohui thought for a moment, "They should be here soon. Maybe theyâve already arrived."
After Jiang Lixin and Sha Shinan returned, the wedding continued. Due to Lin Moyuâs intervention, the many guests present were unaware of what had just happened.
The guests were all from Floating City, with cultivation levels that werenât high. There werenât many Dao Venerables, most were Heavenly Venerables.
Jiang Lixin and Sha Shinan began toasting according to custom. Everyone raised their cups, offering blessings.
The most nervous in the entire venue were Jiang Ruohui and Sha Chenghe. They knew that this matter was far from over.
Lin Moyu was drinking wine there. After a moment, he looked towards the Jiang familyâs gate and said calmly, "The bride-snatcher has arrived!"
