PNB Chapter 142 I'm in Charge!
Chapter 142 I'm in Charge!
Yue Xingtian finally got his chance and launched a fierce counterattack.
Previously, he was in a position to prevent the marriage between the two families, so he could not act rashly. But now, the old nanny's words, "If you don't meet the standards, you won't be able to marry the bride!" have finally given him an opportunity.
Their identities instantly reversed; the old nanny became the one who tried to stop the marriage between the two families. Before she realized her mistake, Yue Xingtian had already launched his counterattack.
The seriously injured old woman fell next to a young and handsome man from the Tang family. The man was immediately enraged, drew his spear, and shouted, "How dare you commit violence here?"
At this moment, the three best men closest to Yue Xingtian were Zhong Ming and his companion.
Zhong Ming reacted the fastest, taking out the Late Spring Cold weapon and slamming the spearhead into the ground, creating a small dent in the wooden floor of the second-floor balcony. He then stood with the spear in hand, next to his older cousin.
Yue Kaishan also took a deep breath and stood up straight, but felt that his aura was not enough. Ignoring what others thought of him, he tore off his sleeve, revealing a powerful mechanical arm, and stood to Yue Xingtian's left, like a giant metal shield.
Yue Xingtian was filled with rage at the moment, and coincidentally, some idiot dared to run into the line of fire.
The bride's cousin, seeing his aunt being kicked out, became enraged and took out a large, ring-pommel sword, slashing at the groom from behind.
Yue Xingtian, a veteran who has fought countless battles, would never be ambushed by a fool like you who hides in your family and lives a life of idleness.
He struck the side of the broadsword with an elbow, knocking it off course, then grabbed the man's wrist with a backhand and twisted it, causing him to cry out in pain. He was dragged to the second-floor balcony, facing everyone present.
"I'm taking her away today, and even the Three Pure Ones can't stop me, I said it!" Yue Kaishan's tiger-like eyes widened as if a god had descended to earth, his majestic presence dominating all living beings.
With a casual shove, he threw the man off the second floor without any mercy.
"Get them both out of here! They have no place at today's wedding."
The old steward of the Tang family, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage, was furious when he saw that two members of the Tang family were injured and that this junior dared to order them around.
"How dare you, Shuzi!"
The oppressive aura of the Foundation Establishment stage swept across the area like a tidal wave. Mortals trembled uncontrollably, some even collapsing to their knees, convulsing. Qi Refining cultivators fared no better; their hearts pounded, their bodies screaming, "Retreat! Retreat! Run!"
Only soldiers who had seen real big scenes and retired veterans remained calm, but their hands were on their storage bags, ready to fight at any moment.
The old butler picked up a short stick and shouted sternly, "You mere junior, how dare you be so arrogant! There are so many elders here, when did it become your place to give orders?"
The bride, Tang Yue, recognized the old butler's voice and panicked. He was a senior figure who had been immersed in the Foundation Establishment stage for sixty years; when he was angry, none of the younger generation in the Tang family dared to speak. She hurriedly tried to clear up the misunderstanding, "Old... ah~~~~"
In an instant, her legs went weak, she felt dizzy, and her whole body was suspended in the air.
Yue Xingtian frowned, picked up the bride in a princess carry, and stepped onto the wooden staircase and red carpet, making the stairs creak.
"With the clan leader absent, I am the eldest grandson of the Yue family, and what I say goes!"
When the head of the Tang family saw that the junior was being so rude, he was about to take action. He had just taken a step when a loud roar, like a thunderclap, rang in his ears.
"stop."
The most powerful cultivator from the Yue family stepped in front of him, completely blocking his path. With lightning speed, he grabbed the old steward's hands and placed a round ball in his palm.
Do you think it's just another case of paying money to settle things?
No, once the incident occurred, the Yue family, regardless of age or cultivation level, united as one to confront the external threat. This jade ball, seemingly meant for play, was actually a powerful bomb; even a slight increase in spiritual energy would trigger its detonation countdown.
The Tang family patriarch's eyes sharpened. What did that mean? Not only did he beat up a member of the Tang family, but he also looked down on me?
The strongest one dares to stop my butler? Do you think I'm some paper-thin Foundation Establishment cultivator?
Just as his momentum was about to erupt, someone beside him moved even faster.
"Blood Secret Technique - Ling".
A terrifying aura condensed within three feet of him. If the old butler's aura was like a cold front in the dead of winter, sweeping across the entire mansion with unstoppable force, then this man was a crazed monster, a werewolf with bloodshot eyes opened on a full moon night, staring intently at his prey, as if he could tear it apart and devour it at any moment, brutally displaying the instincts of a wild beast.
The head of the Tang family was startled.
You started with a desperate Taoist technique?
Even if the distance is one realm lower, for a cultivator from the Yue family, renowned for their physical cultivation, to engage in close combat using a life-or-death secret technique would truly be in mortal danger.
This secret technique can only last for half an incense stick's time.
In just half an incense stick's time!
That was enough. Enough for everyone to watch as Yue Xingtian carried his bride, step by step, down the high platform, past all the guests, and finally to the sedan chair carried by eight men.
The groomsmen on both sides drew their swords, their spiritual energy surging, yet none of them retreated. In the terrifying clash of Foundation Establishment stage auras, Yue Xingtian was like the sharp edge that tore through the raging storm, creating an opening for the groomsmen behind him, whose cultivation levels were slightly lower, allowing them to stabilize themselves.
Even the few old cultivators who were just pretending to watch the show couldn't help but whisper in admiration:
"The Yue family has a son of exceptional talent."
"This young man has the bearing of a great general."
.....
However, the terrifying clash between Foundation Establishment cultivators was not so easy to withstand. Even though the Yue family's experts had desperately protected them, some uncontrollable turbulent currents still crashed in.
Zhong Ming felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer in the chest. His tortoise-shell vest suddenly lit up, and the spiritual energy vanished like flowing water, crushed by invisible waves and disappearing as foam on the crest of a wave.
Yue Xingtian's body began to tremble, and his breathing became slightly heavy.
As his physical strength waned, the pressure on the other groomsmen also increased.
At this moment, the key person who had been silent for so long finally stopped hesitating.
A new force joined the storm, tearing open the path forward.
The Tang family possesses the power of spiritual energy.
Don't forget, the bride is also a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining, a powerful cultivator who is capable of single-handedly defeating the entire groomsmen.
Those who are weak-willed are not worthy of becoming strong. In powerful families where even acquiring a single spirit stone is comparable to a palace intrigue, there are no ordinary people among those with profound cultivation levels.
Just now... just now was just...
But no one had ever chosen her so resolutely before, especially someone she had never met.
Just... a little bit...
I only enjoyed it a little bit.
Her power erupted without hesitation, blasting away the suppression from everyone else, including the Tang family.
Foundation Establishment cultivators intimidated each other with mere aura... She didn't care; she used her spiritual power directly.
It means the same thing.
I'm determined to marry this man.
