Chapter 672: Chapter 672 Three Conditions Chapter 672: Chapter 672 Three Conditions â`
Imperial Capital, a dead silence.
An eerie and chilling atmosphere permeated the Imperial Capital.
For a moment, everyoneâs gaze was fixed on the Xia Family, as if waiting for them to clarify Liu Qingyangâs confusion.
The upper echelon of the Xia Family, pale as ash, no one spoke, and no one knew how to answer.
Who would have thought that the Liu family from Luan Tian City would have such an overwhelming background?
The top powerhouses from all the major forces in the Yanhuo Empire, even the emperor himself came to offer congratulations, along with leaders from the Shuiyue Empire, Luoyun Empire, and Tianwu Empire.
These formidable leaders came regardless of whose face they were looking at, but they all came.
It was the Xia Family, who looked down on the Liu family, that actually did not go to welcome the bride!
To get married without a welcome procession, this was unheard of, and yet the Xia Family did it.
âHonestly, I really didnât know that the Xia Familyâs young master was getting married.â
âThis is utterly ridiculous! Itâs bad enough not to spread the word about such a major event, but now the Xia Family even skips the welcome procession. Is this still a marriage?â
âThe Xia Family is simply treating the marriage as a trifling matter! Theyâre making themselves a laughingstock!â
After a moment of silence, as the crowd turned back, the Imperial Capital boiled over again, abuzz with noise.
Liumeier has such a terrifying background, countless people dream of marrying her, the Xia family is simply wasting a treasure.
Without Liu Qingyangâs words, people really wouldnât have known about it.
Liu Qingyangâs statement clearly indicated he wouldnât let this go easily.
âXia Yuanqing, I have never heard of marrying without welcoming the bride. What is the reason for this?â Duan Tian Hun looked towards the Family Head of the Xia Family and asked.
As an emperor, Duan Tian Hun was also hearing of this for the first time.
The faces of the emperor of Tianwu Empire and others also showed astonishment, as they too had never heard of it.
Hearing Duan Tian Hunâs question, Xia Yuanqing trembled violently, extreme fear rendering him speechless.
Liu Qingyang coldly shouted, âYour Xia Family clearly looks down on my Liu family, considering us just a small clan. Do you feel embarrassed that Liumeier is marrying Xia Yun?â
âNo, no, no, the Xia Family absolutely does not mean that,â Xia Yuanqing frantically shook his head; even if that was what he meant, he dared not admit it.
Xia Yuanqing could feel the ferocity in Liu Qingyangâs icy words.
âIf thatâs not the meaning, then what is it?â Liu Qingyang asked indifferently.
âThisâŠâ Xia Yuanqing was so petrified that he didnât know how to reply, his complexion white as paper.
âFamily Head Xia, following your intention, we have already brought the bride over,â Feng Wuchen said blandly, his gaze sweeping toward the Family Head of the Xia Family.
To Feng Wuchen, the Xia Family was not unfamiliar, but neither was it well-known; he was merely aware of its existence.
âThank⊠thank you, Grand CommanderâŠâ Xia Yuanqing replied with a quivering voice, his fear clearly evident to all.
âDonât be in a hurry to thank me. You should know why the Liu family personally brought the bride here. I wonât say more about this. The bride is outside the city, and itâs up to your Xia Family to welcome her back,â Feng Wuchen stated calmly.
âYes, yes, yes!â Xia Yuanqing nodded repeatedly, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.
So many terrifying powerhousesâ presence had completely shaken the Xia Family.
Xia Yuanqing was acutely aware that if it wasnât for the fact that Liumeier was pregnant, the Liu family would have never agreed to this marriage, and Feng Wuchen certainly wouldnât let the Xia Family off easily!
âBefore welcoming her back, I have three conditions,â Feng Wuchen added.
âPlease state them, Grand Commander,â Xia Yuanqing said respectfully, not daring to hesitate.
Feng Wuchenâs mention of three conditions instantly terrified the Xia Familyâs senior members, their hearts filled with extreme panic.
â`
Feng Wuchen said, âSince we are now relatives by marriage, I wonât make things too difficult for you. First, take good care of Liumeier. If she is bullied, donât blame me for not warning you.â
âYes, yes, yes!â Xia Yuanqing nodded repeatedly, feeling somewhat reassured.
âSecond, you must personally welcome Liumeier back to the Xia Family and make amends for your failure to meet her when she was first married. Xia Yun must not interfere.â
âYes, yes, yes!â
âThird, you are not allowed to order Liumeier to do anything she does not wish to do. Protect her well; if anything happens to her, you know the consequences.â
âYes, yes, yes! Grand Commander, rest assured!â
From beginning to end, Xia Yuanqing was extremely respectful and terrified. In front of Feng Wuchen, he did not dare to show the slightest disrespect.
Who in the Empire of Yanhuo did not know the terror of Feng Wuchen?
He was already the strongest amongst the four great empires, and now heâs even more powerful!
With Feng Wuchenâs current strength, he could easily reduce the Xia Family to ashes with a wave of his hand.
âUncle Liu, what do you think?â Looking towards the Liu Family Head, Feng Wuchen asked.
The Family Head was startled at first, but then he gave a wry smile and said, âWhatever the Grand Commander decides is fine, this old man has no objections.â
âQingyang, Xiao Xiao, do you have anything to add? Or any thoughts youâd like to share?â Feng Wuchen then turned his gaze towards Ling Xiaoxiao and the others and asked.
Liu Qingyang shrugged his shoulders, indicating he had nothing to add.
âThe three points Brother Feng has mentioned are already sufficient,â said Ling Xiaoxiao with a sweet smile.
âSince thatâs the case, then these will be the three conditions,â Feng Wuchen said indifferently. He had never intended to severely punish the Xia Family; he simply wanted to teach them a lesson.
âThank you, Grand Commander!â Xia Yuanqing said gratefully. He had been worried that Feng Wuchen might resort to killing, which had unsettled him greatly.
The Xia Family and the Liu Family would still be relatives after this; falling out would be good for no one. Would Feng Wuchen go too far in making things difficult for the Xia Family?
However, everyone in the Imperial Capital felt that the Xia Family got off lightly. Had it been anyone else, the Xia Family might never have been able to hold their heads up again.
Members of the Xia Family all secretly breathed sighs of relief. Otherwise, what awaited them might well have been death.
After Feng Wuchen finished speaking, Xia Yuanqing and the senior members of the Xia Family finally fully relaxed.
âThe hour is almost upon us. Quickly, welcome Liumeier back and proceed with the wedding rites,â Feng Wuchen said.
Xia Yuanqing did not dare to hesitate, no matter how humiliating; he had to welcome her personally.
The fruit of oneâs own sowing must be eaten by oneself!
Xia Yuanqing lifted the bridal sedan chair with both hands and then flew towards the Xia Family in the Imperial Capital. At the same time, he politely said, âGreat Emperor, State Preceptor, Princes, Grand Commander, and all guests, the Xia Family has prepared a banquet. Please honor us with your presence.â
âThree Great Emperors, Sect Master Mu, please,â Duan Tian Hun said with a joyful laugh.
âThis prince will certainly not hold back,â said the Great Emperor of Tianwu with a laugh.
Mu Yunshan said with a smile, âThis Sect Master hasnât had wedding drinks in a long time! Today, we must also thank Family Head Liu.â
âPlease, everyone!â Family Head Liu said, smiling. Eventually, the issue was resolved without any unpleasantness.
Feng Wuchenâs approach had already given the Xia Family plenty of face, deterring the family and avoiding any vendetta between the two families.
âThank you, Grand Commander, for standing up for Liumeier!â the Liu Familyâs Chief Elder quickly expressed his thanks.
âNo need for thanks, Chief Elder. Letâs go and watch Liumeierâs wedding,â Feng Wuchen said with a smile.
A big issue was minimized, and a small one dissipated; the matter between the two families was resolved.
Marriage is a joyful occasion. Higher-ups from various major powers came to share the joy, making the Xia Family abuzz with liveliness and filled with laughter and cheer.
