132: Chapter 125: My Word Counts 132: Chapter 125: My Word Counts With the sudden appearance of this voice, in an instant, the atmosphere, which was originally lively, noisy, and slightly romantic, abruptly stopped.
Everyone turned their heads toward the source of the voice.
What met their eyes was a young man around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing a gray suit, of medium height, with a buzz cut, eagle eyes, and a face full of cold sneers and sinister expressions.
This man was the very one who had just made the outrageous claim and called himself Hong Zihai.
He was not alone; three people stood behind him.
These three looked quite ordinary, each about forty years old, wearing gray-black jackets and white casual pants, their expressions mostly void of emotion, eyes slightly narrowed, somewhat mediocre and unremarkable.
At that moment, over ninety percent of the guests were staring at Hong Zihai, completely ignoring the three middle-aged men standing behind him.
Only Su Chen, took an interested glance at them and was genuinely surprised in his heart.
All three middle-aged men were martial cultivators, and although they were only at the mid-stage of Mysterious Qi Training, it was still very interesting.
In the Secular World, it wasn’t easy to come across three martial cultivators of the mid-stage Mysterious Qi Training all at once.
Especially since these three martial cultivators were following a young man without any aura of martial cultivation, acting as guards and bodyguards, it was even more incredible…
Without delay, Su Chen glanced at Hong Zihai again, searching his memories from a former life, and quickly, he remembered something, a smile growing at the corner of his mouth, “So it’s him?”
Without delay, Su Chen looked again at the bride on the wedding platform, whose face was slightly pale and whose eyes were fearful, anxious, and tense.
She wasn’t particularly beautiful nor did she possess much charisma; to tell the truth, he had completely overlooked this bride before.
But now, with Hong Zihai’s arrival, Su Chen had to admit that he had misjudged—was Wang Yunyin actually the woman of Hong Zihai, the young master of the Hong Family?
Even if she was ordinary, her status was certainly not.
“Liu Tianxiong, oh Liu Tianxiong, your son did well, snatching the woman of the Hong Family’s young master; what a tactic!” Su Chen couldn’t help but cast a glance at Liu Tianxiong, thinking to himself.
At the moment, Liu Tianxiong was clearly stunned, thoroughly and genuinely so.
Su Chen was sure that Liu Tianxiong’s stupor was not an act; in other words, Liu Tianxiong did not know that Wang Yunyin was the woman of Hong Zihai, the young master of the Hong Family.
“Thank goodness you didn’t know, for if you had known and still deliberately invited me, Su Chen, to attend the wedding to use me to deal with the Hong Family, then, Liu Tianxiong, you wouldn’t be far from death!” Su Chen’s eyes flickered slightly.
In fact, if Liu Tianxiong had the slightest bit of sense, he wouldn’t risk such a great danger to plot against the Hong Family using himself.
Not to mention that Liu Tianxiong didn’t have the guts to plot against him.
Even the Hong Family itself was an existence beyond Liu Tianxiong’s imagination!
That’s not just any family!
It ranks among the top five colossal entities within the entire Secular World of China, a terrifying family that can influence the whole secular world.
The Hong Family is located in Anwu City of the Secular World in China.
Anwu City is not large, perhaps only a third the size of Chengfeng City or even smaller.
But Anwu City is still the most powerful and frightening city in China, not for any reason other than it being the closest to Taixuan Mountain of the Martial Arts Realm, almost connecting directly to it, hence the tight connection between Anwu City and the Martial Arts World.
In Anwu City, there are only about a dozen families, but even just those families, if placed in any other city, would be invincible.
It is said that these dozen families control over half of the economy within the Secular World of China!
The Zhou Family of Xiyun City is strong and terrifying, right?
But compared to the Hong Family of Anwu City, they fall far behind, not just by a little.
“To have three mid-stage Mysterious Qi Training martial cultivators as bodyguards, the young master of the Hong Family from Anwu City is still as beloved and favored by the Hong Family as in my previous life!” Su Chen thought to himself.
In his former life, Hong Zihai was very active and conspicuous; otherwise, how could he remember Hong Zihai?
Though Hong Zihai lacked talent for martial cultivation, he possessed an extremely clever mind.
Many of the Hong Family’s decisions were proposed by him, and reportedly, he was designated as the next patriarch of the Hong Family at the mere age of seventeen.
Clearly, neither Liu Tianxiong nor Liu Bulin knew that Wang Yunyin was the woman of the young master of the Hong Family; otherwise, even if Liu Tianxiong were given a hundred guts, or Liu Bulin a thousand, they wouldn’t dare…
“Young master, I am unaware of how the Liu Family and this lowly dog have offended you.
Today is the dog’s grand wedding day; I hope you can spare us,” Liu Tianxiong spoke the next second.
Liu Tianxiong’s posture was extremely humble, as he was not a careless person but rather a clever one.
Although he did not recognize Hong Zihai and was even unable to sense the terrifying aura of the three people behind him.
But, he felt that since the other party came swaggering and arrogantly to interfere with the wedding, unless they were out of their minds, they must have had something to rely on.
For safety’s sake, it was natural to be cautious.
This was the principle Liu Tianxiong had adhered to for many years in dealing with people and managing the Liu Family.
I’m sorry, but I am here today to cause inconvenience!
And, who do you think you are to ask me for a favor?
Do you think you are worthy?” Hong Zihai sneered disdainfully at Liu Tianxiong.
Then, his gaze shifted to Wang Yunyin on the wedding platform, “Wang Yunyin, you ran away behind my back, huh?
Did you think you could hide?
Don’t say you just fled to Chengfeng City, even if you fled beyond China, as long as I, Hong Zihai, wanted to find you, you couldn’t escape!
Remember, you are my woman, Hong Zihai’s woman.”
I’m not worthy of you!” Wang Yunyin bit her lip, her voice trembling with a plea.
“Whether you’re worthy of me is for me to decide!” Hong Zihai grunted.
“Moreover, knowing you are not worthy, how can you not cherish the love I have for you?”
Indeed, Wang Yunyin was not worthy of him.
After all, she wasn’t very beautiful, and with Hong Zihai’s status, attracting one hundred or even one thousand women far more beautiful than Wang Yunyin was easy for him.
However, what he valued was Wang Yunyin’s identity.
Wang Yunyin was the illegitimate daughter of the Patriarch of the Wang Family from the Heavenly Pulse Thirty-Two Families within the Martial Arts Realm, and the Patriarch had not had another child for many years and had been desperately searching for Wang Yunyin.
He had found out Wang Yunyin’s identity by chance and had kept it hidden in his heart, unknown to anyone but himself.
His plan was to pretend not to know Wang Yunyin’s identity, marry her, and even have children with her.
Then, after three to five years, he would find a way to reveal that Wang Yunyin was the illegitimate daughter of the Patriarch of the Wang Family.
Then, one of the Heavenly Pulse Thirty-Six Families of the Martial Arts Realm would become his support and backup.
Even with his methods, controlling the Wang Family of the Martial Arts Realm in the future was not impossible.
Hong Zihai’s ambition was great, and Wang Yunyin was a critical link in his plans.
How could he possibly let her marry someone else?!
When in Anwu City, after he had accidentally learned of Wang Yunyin’s identity, he had spared no effort to woo her, and indeed, he had succeeded, confirming their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, even proposing to her, and she had accepted.
However, unexpectedly, not long after the proposal, she accidentally witnessed him mingling with several beauties behind her back…
Of course, Hong Zihai didn’t consider this a big deal, after all, he was the young master of the Hong Family, a man countless women desired to marry or even be a mistress to.
And since Wang Yunyin didn’t even know she was the illegitimate daughter of the Wang Family’s Patriarch, she surely wouldn’t break up with him easily, and would likely turn a blind eye, compromising for the sake of the relationship.
Thus, he didn’t worry too much.
But who could have expected that before long, Wang Yunyin would disappear!!!
Leaving behind only a breakup letter!
This was beyond what Hong Zihai had anticipated; Wang Yunyin was more resilient than he had thought.
For the past few months, he had been searching for Wang Yunyin, mobilizing the entire Hong Family’s resources to find her among the vast populace across China.
It was incredibly difficult!
But thankfully, he had found her!
This time, he had made up his mind that even if it meant imprisoning her, he could not let Wang Yunyin leave again.
“We have already broken up.
Please stop harassing me!” Seeing Hong Zihai aggressively approaching her, Wang Yunyin took a deep breath and spoke firmly.
Although she was incredibly frightened of Hong Zihai, she still had to make it clear; otherwise, it would be unfair to Bu Lin, unfair to the Liu Family.
These past few months, Bu Lin had truly been good to her, genuinely and wholeheartedly, and she had devoted herself entirely to him.
She wanted to marry Bu Lin, bear his children, and lead a happy, peaceful life.
I don’t accept the breakup, it doesn’t count if you say it alone,” Hong Zihai shrugged.
“You…” Wang Yunyin wanted to say more, but Bu Lin stopped her. Check latest chapters at novel·fiɾe·net
Suddenly, Bu Lin took a deep breath, stepped forward, and stood on the wedding platform.
He stared at Hong Zihai and said sternly, “My friend, Yunyin has broken up with you and has nothing to do with you anymore.
Please show some respect, stop harassing her.
Also, this is the Liu Family!!!”
Bu Lin had to stand up.
If he didn’t stand up now to protect his woman, he would lose face, and so would the Liu Family.
