The two originators of the plan were still discussing the matter of showing off in the courtyard.
Hearing Su Bai's words, Yi Feng nodded and said, "Vain pride is sothing everyone has. I can understand that. 'Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, never despise the youth for being poor.'"
"So, you agree for to go?" Su Bai said happily.
"You can go, but..." Yi Feng hesitated, "I only gave you a tiny bit of cultivation power. I don't know if you'll be able to keep up the act there."
"I can! Absolutely!" Su Bai nodded repeatedly.
He truly had no idea what level of cultivation power the Elder possessed, considering the amount bestowed upon him as rely 'a tiny bit'...
Did the Lord/Sir/Your Excellency misunderstand the aning of 'a tiny bit'?
But then he thought about it.
His cultivation power, which ranked at the top of the martial world, was probably just "a tiny bit" in the master's eyes.
Yi Feng sighed and said, "Well, fine. I'll give you a small trinket to take with you as a gift."
Saying that, he pulled out a long sword and tossed it to Su Bai.
Su Bai looked at the long sword and was imdiately dumbfounded.
You call this top-tier immortal weapon a 'trinket'?
If this sword were to appear outside, it would cause a massive uproar throughout the entire cultivation world.
"Master, this... this is way too valuable!"
Su Bai held the top-tier immortal weapon, his hands trembling.
"Valuable my foot!" Yi Feng frowned disapprovingly, giving a disdainful glare.
"This piece of junk was sothing I planned to throw away. Since you're going to your ex-girlfriend's wedding, there's no need to bring sothing too valuable. This sword will do just fine."
Su Bai was imdiately torn between laughter and tears.
Perhaps this was the perspective of a high-level expert...
Then Yi Feng dismissed Su Bai, who could only express his gratitude profusely as he walked out of the small courtyard with the top-tier immortal weapon.
The next day.
Su Bai washed up briefly and wearing the uniform of a servant of the Hundred Refinents Sect, he returned to Tianyun City.
He had grown up with his sister, living here for over a decade, so he was very familiar with the place.
Soon.
He arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion.
His ex-girlfriend had married the son of the city lord, so the wedding was naturally held at the City Lord's Mansion.
At the mont, the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion was brightly decorated with colorful lights and a festive atmosphere.
After registering, he stepped inside, where the decorations were even more elaborate. The guests had already filled the entire courtyard.
It was the son of the city lord's big wedding, so all the prominent families in the city naturally ca to show their support.
"Su Bai, you've co?"
As Su Bai was lost in thought, a woman's voice called out from a distance.
Su Bai turned to look and saw that it was his ex-girlfriend, Liu Qianqian, who had made him both love and hate.
"Qianqian, you look beautiful today."
Seeing Liu Qianqian in her wedding dress, Su Bai complinted her.
Liu Qianqian walked over and looked Su Bai up and down.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed as she said with disdain, "You've been at the Hundred Refinents Sect for so many years, yet you haven't even beco an outer sect disciple?" ṙäℕòꞖΕꞨ
If this had been before, Su Bai would have felt a twinge of bitterness in his heart upon hearing this.
But now, he just smiled calmly and said, "Although I'm still a servant, even the Great Elder of the Hundred Refinents Sect is not my equal."
Liu Qianqian shook her head slightly, "You haven't improved your cultivation over the years, but your skill at blowing your own horn certainly has."
Su Bai was about to say sothing more when an old woman's voice interrupted directly.
"Qianqian, my dear daughter, Chen Chao is waiting for you in front. Who are you talking to?"
As she spoke, a garishly dressed old woman with heavy makeup and a malicious expression walked over.
Seeing it was Su Bai, she sneered, "Oh, who do we have here? It's none other than the toad who once dread of eating swan at!"
Su Bai frowned slightly.
He recognized this old woman as Liu Qianqian's mother.
It was she who had thrown tantrums and vehently opposed his relationship with Liu Qianqian.
She had declared, "Even if I married my daughter to a dog, I wouldn't marry her to you, Su Bai!"
In an instant, this statent spread throughout Tianyun City.
He beca the laughingstock of everyone.
Now, this woman's words tore open the old wound of Su Bai's past.
Su Bai clenched his teeth but said nothing.
After all, she was Liu Qianqian's mother, and for Liu Qianqian, Su Bai's heart still harbored a bit of affection.
At that mont.
A handso and dignified young man walked slowly over.
He said, "Darling, mother-in-law, why are you standing here? Father is asking us to start the ceremony right away."
"Ah! Yes, yes, yes! Qian'er, let's go, don't bother with this toad."
Liu's mother said as she dragged Liu Qianqian away, not even glancing at Su Bai.
The young man also gave Su Bai a smirking look before snorting coldly and leaving.
For soone like Su Bai, he couldn't be bothered to humiliate him.
Soon.
The wedding began in full swing.
Liu Qianqian gently took the young man's arm, her face brimming with excitent.
She rejoiced in having listened to her mother and dumping Su Bai to choose her husband.
In the future, when the old city lord retired, her husband would be the new city lord, and she would be the city lord's wife.
This was worlds apart from being with Su Bai!
As the wedding was about to conclude, the guests began to present their gifts to the newlyweds.
Liu's mother looked at Su Bai with a smile and said, "I say, Su Bai, you're not here empty-handed, are you? You were Qianqian's ex-boyfriend after all. Did you not prepare a gift?"
She deliberately raised her voice so all the guests could hear.
In an instant, Su Bai, standing in the corner, beca the center of attention.
Almost everyone present knew about this unlucky fellow, and now they all wanted to see his joke.
Feeling the crowd's gloating gazes and ridicule, Su Bai sighed deeply, experiencing the cold reality of human sentint.
Under everyone's gaze, he strode up to the platform and slapped a certain object onto the table with a "thwack."
He declared, "This is what this young master is giving as a betrothal gift!"
The vibrant red lanterns in the venue were instantly overshadowed by the blinding golden radiance.
All the guests, including the city lord, were instantly shocked by what Su Bai had produced.
"A top-tier immortal weapon!?"
City Lord Chen Chaoqian, with his extensive experience, imdiately realized.
This unremarkable little servant had directly brought out a top-tier immortal weapon.
