Chapter 666 - 666 666 Wedding Banquet

Chapter 666: Chapter 666 Wedding Banquet Chapter 666: Chapter 666 Wedding Banquet Flame Empire’s Sky Pavilion.

Wuchen emerged from the teleportation array. The Sky Pavilion was deserted, and without a guess, he knew everyone had gone to the Liu Family.

“Pavilion Master! It’s great you’re back! Qingyang and the others are all waiting!” Upon seeing Wuchen appear, a man excitedly came up to him.

“Let’s go, let’s check out the excitement at the Liu family.” Seeing the man’s surprised and joyous expression, Wuchen smiled slightly, grabbed the man, and disappeared with a flash.

Luan Tian City, the Liu family estate, was bustling with noise and excitement, and the rooms were filled with honored guests amidst the sounds of joy and laughter.

As Liu Meier from the Liu family was getting married, the Liu family held a wedding feast for three days, inviting the distinguished figures from Luan Tian City and the surrounding cities—only those who were quite close. The very distant major powers were not invited by the Liu family.

Within Luan Tian City, the City Lord and the upper echelons of the major families were all invited and arrived.

The status of the Liu family in the Empire was already considered that of a great family. While it still fell short when compared to other great families, many people knew that the Liu family was now someone the royal family did not dare to offend!

If it weren’t for the Liu family’s low profile, the entire Yunzhou would probably know that the eldest son of the Liu family, Liu Qingyang, was the best friend of the Empire’s Grand Commander, Feng Wuchen.

Moreover, those who understood Qingyang knew just how terrifying his cultivation level was; there was no second person in the entire Empire who could match his strength!

It’s just that Qingyang rarely returned, and others’ knowledge of him was that of a young master who did nothing and caused trouble everywhere.

At the Liu family estate, the Family Head and the elders personally received the guests.

“Congratulations to the Family Head, and congratulations to the elder. I heard that Liu Meier has found her true destined prince.”

“Exactly, exactly! This old man heard it’s the great Xia family from the Imperial Capital! They even know some important ministers of the royal family!”

“It’s actually the Xia family! Incredible! Family Head, congratulations!”

The invited heads of the families and major powers’ upper echelons took turns offering their congratulations, all very polite and envious at the same time.

The Xia family from the Imperial Capital had a profound heritage. Although not as powerful as the Bai family, they could sit on an equal footing with the Ni family.

In comparison, the Xia family was far more powerful than the Liu family, and it was an instance of the latter marrying up.

It was precisely because it was the Xia family that the Liu family head and the others were so pleased, at least they had not brought shame to the Liu family.

“Thank you, thank you,” replied the Family Head and the elders, each returning the courtesy.

Qingyang and Leng Mucheng were in charge of greeting guests alongside Ling Xiaoxiao and Miao Qingqing, who were also helping out.

“Brother Liu, your dad knows quite a lot of people,” Dong Zhantian said while helping, chuckling softly.

Qingyang shrugged and replied, “It’s just the families in Luan Tian City and some nearby forces, then there’s also Big Brother Leng’s dad and their people.”

“Qingyang, is the Xia family a lot more powerful than your Liu family? Your dad and the elders seem very happy,” Zhang Junlan asked softly.

Qingyang said helplessly, “The Xia family has been in commerce for hundreds of years, of course, they’re richer than my Liu family, and it’s normal for them to be stronger than us. It’s just that ever since I followed Brother Feng, I rarely come back. They don’t know about my current level of cultivation; only Uncle Leng and my family’s people know. In their eyes, I’m just a troublemaking young master.”

“Brother Liu, with your current level of cultivation, you’re more than capable of dominating the Flame Empire!” Dong Zhantian chuckled softly.

Qingyang pursed his lips and replied, “Not interested.”

“You guys, come help quickly; don’t you see how many guests there are?” At that moment, Ling Xiaoxiao’s scolding voice came, and her fierce gaze glared over.

Noticing this, Zhang Junlan and the others were immediately startled and hurriedly scattered to help receive the guests; they weren’t daring enough to provoke Ling Xiaoxiao.

After practicing in the fifth layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower for over a month, Ling Xiaoxiao had already broken through to the Sixth Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm. In the Dragon God Palace, aside from Wuchen, Ye Tianwei, and Han Kun, it was Ling Xiaoxiao who was the strongest.

Of course, on the big day of the Liu Family celebration, Ling Xiaoxiao did not lose her temper—the wedding banquet could not neglect the guests.

Just when the Liu Family and many guests were laughing and chatting, the Xia Family sent someone over, who had already arrived at the front entrance of the Liu family estate.

“Family Head! The Xia Family has sent someone!” A guard rushed in excitedly.

“Quick, invite them in! Quick, invite them in!” Liu Family Head said joyfully, and together with the elders, he hurried towards the gate.

The Xia Family sending someone must not be taken lightly!

“The Xia Family is sending someone now? Is the young master of the Xia Family too impatient?” Dong Zhantian chuckled softly.

“Maybe they are inviting us to the Xia Family right now,” Leng Mucheng said with a happy smile.

On the side, Ge Changkong expressed his envy, “I’m really envious that he could marry Meier.”

“Meier, let’s go take a look too,” Miao Qingqing said with a smile, holding Liumeier’s jade hand as they walked out, followed by Liu Qingyang and his group.

The higher-ups and family members of the major powers also followed one after another, with the Xia Family’s high standing in the Empire, they did not dare to neglect them.

In the front courtyard of the Liu Family, the Liu Family guards were already leading the people from the Xia Family in.

The person who came was not a high-level member of the Xia Family but a middle-aged man, Xia Yu, the leader of the Xia Family guards, whose cultivation had reached the Sixth Layer of the Yuandan Realm.

Liu Family Head personally went forward to welcome him, smiling politely, “Guard Commander Xia, welcome, welcome, please come inside.”

Even if he was not a high-level member of the Xia Family, the Liu Family still had to be extremely polite.

After all, hosting a wedding banquet is no trifling matter, and it’s natural for the higher-ups of the Xia Family to be busy as well; the Liu Family Head and the others could naturally understand.

“Liu Family Head, no need for that, I’m just here to convey our Family Head’s message,” Xia Yu slowly started.

“Convey a message?” The crowd became slightly curious.

“Please speak, Guard Commander Xia,” Liu Family Head said with a polite smile.

Glancing at the crowd, with some difficulty starting and a look of embarrassment, Xia Yu said, “Liu Family Head, the Xia Family won’t come for the bride tomorrow, and the Xia Family hasn’t arranged a banquet either, so tomorrow, you just need to bring Meier to the Imperial Capital, to the Xia Family, that’s our Family Head’s intent.”

Upon hearing this, the smile on Liu Family Head’s face instantly stiffened.

Not coming for the bride? Not arranging a banquet? What sort of reasoning was this?

Not coming to fetch the bride, not arranging a banquet—could that even be called a wedding banquet?

“How can this be? How can there be a wedding without fetching the bride?”

“Not fetching the bride and not holding a banquet, what is the Xia Family implying? Isn’t the young master of the Xia Family afraid of losing face for the Xia Family by marrying a wife like this?”

“Has something happened to the Xia Family? A wedding banquet is no trifling matter, how can they not fetch the bride and maintain decency?”

Xia Yu’s words immediately caused an uproar among the Liu Family’s guests, as if they had heard the most ludicrous thing in the world.

“Just as I thought…” Xia Yu’s words left Liumeier extremely disappointed.

After hearing this, Liu Qingyang and his group also found it too unbelievable; it was as if the wedding banquet was being treated as a joke!

“This is outrageous! This is a clear sign of disrespect towards our Liu Family!” Liu Qingyang was about to burst with anger, but was stopped by the Liu Family Head.

“Guard Commander Xia, may I know what happened for the Family Head to decide this? How can such an important matter as marriage be treated as a joke?” Liu Family Head asked with a frown, his face clearly looked displeased.
