As the demon cultivators conversed amongst themselves,
they continually shared the explosive news of the cross-realm marriage with their familiar demon cultivator friends from various sects.
Thus,
as they moved forward, the crowd of demon cultivators gathering to watch grew increasingly larger.
Several two-hour periods later,
the crowd was a dense mass of people beyond estimation.
Even if it wasn’t half of the Great Wilderness State’s demon cultivators, it was at least a good twenty to thirty percent!
Southern Heavenly Realm.
A giant ancient fountain spewed a milk-white water column a thousand feet high.
The spray of water spread in all directions, dissipating into sparkling droplets in the wind, forming an inverted hemisphere of light.
It emitted a sacred glow, the most feared object by the Ancient Giants,
especially those transford from the Asura Clan.
Touching it would cause them to revert to the Asura Clan.
Its effect was very similar to that of the Saint Crystal.
And under the great sacred light do,
a bustling Asura city ca into view.
Compared to the Black Cloud Village,
the Asura city before them was hundreds of tis larger.
The city’s civilization was prosperous, rivaling even the Human Clan cities in Central Earth.
In the Southern Heavenly Realm, where the Asura Clan had beco captive prey, this city was akin to a Holy Land.
In the city’s center,
a delicate courtyard was nestled amidst the bustling market.
A gentle stream flowed around a rockery, carrying several beautifully chasing little fish.
A few plants filled with a quiet floral fragrance blood silently.
Under a pine tree,
a girl in a black long dress with a graceful figure sat at a stone table.
She wore a pair of gold-rimd glasses, her expression calm.
The wind blew, lightly lifting her black hair, revealing a stunning side profile.
The few sheets of paper in her hand also lightly flipped in the breeze.
One of them, written in Hell Language, read: "A secret move of an Ancient Giant unit from the Central Tribe."
"Destination unknown."
At this point,
her elegant eyebrows slightly furrowed as she quietly pondered:
"The Central Tribe is facing the strongest of Central State in Central Earth, the toughest nut to crack."
"Every soldier is invaluable."
"Why did they suddenly move a unit? Who are they coming for?"
After many possibilities flashed through her mind, her brows furrowed even tighter.
Because she realized that there were two most likely targets,
one of which might be their village!
"Our village has never been breached, giving rise to many Asura Kings who even the Giant King perceives as threats."
"It’s long been a thorn in the side of the Ancient Giants."
"Now, with less than half a month until the Heavenly Realm’s centennial grand hunt,
"it’s very possible they are moving an army to join local tribes in attacking our village."
She paused, then shifted her tone: "But, it might not be aiming for us."
"It could be heading for Taicang State instead!"
"Jiang Fan destroyed the Ancient Sky Pit, plundered the Black Sun Royal Court’s arsenal, weakening the Black Sun Royal Court’s power."
"Reinforcing the Black Sun Royal Court is also a strong possibility."
She set down the paper and adjusted her glasses, sighing slightly.
"But whoever they are coming for, it’s not good news."
As she was contemplating,
noisy voices ca from outside the door.
"Fairy Xuanxuan, the young lady is busy with affairs and cannot be disturbed."
"You wretch, are you treating as an outsider?"
"No, no, I wouldn’t dare, but the young lady doesn’t like to be disturbed, please don’t make it difficult for ."
"I am from Shudao Mountain!"
The black-dressed girl shook her head and spoke softly: "Let her in."
Then,
a charming girl in a bright red long dress stord in front of her, clutching her skirt.
Her figure wasn’t particularly tall, but well-shaped and voluptuous.
A pointed chin, round eyes, and lips unnaturally reddish without any lipstick.
Peeking from her hair were a pair of round little horns.
A quite attractive Asura girl,
with a fiery temper.
Even facing an Asura King with Four Crowns of cultivation, she didn’t back down.
Slapping the table angrily, she said, "He’s ssing around! Late for the first eting!"
"What kind of cross-realm marriage is this?"
The black-dressed girl looked at her and said, "Speak properly!"
Xuanxuan put her hands on her hips, disgruntledly adjusting her tone: "I’m worried for you!"
"Cross-realm marriage is unprecedented."
"The whole village is paying attention, and if sothing goes wrong, people will laugh at you."
In fact, the voices of doubt had already spread throughout the city.
Taicang State of Central Earth, in terms of top-notch experts, is actually inferior to their village.
The marriage is essentially marrying down.
They are the losing side.
The young lady, however, insisted on the marriage despite opposition, causing dissatisfaction among many.
Now, if Central Earth defaults, the young lady would be placed in an awkward position.
The black-dressed girl said calmly: "Calm down."
"It’s a win-win situation; Taicang State’s leadership has no reason to refuse."
"Moreover..."
She adjusted her glasses and said: "Even if the leadership refuses, I believe Jiang Fan will still co to fulfill the agreent."
Although their interaction was brief, she could see so of Jiang Fan’s ways.
He does what he believes is right, eliminating all distractions, persistently pursuing it.
In this regard, he is the sa as her.
Xuanxuan pouted: "Do you trust that guy so much?"
The black-dressed girl replied, "He will co."
As soon as she finished speaking,
exclamations rang out from the sky.
The black-dressed girl smiled faintly: "He has arrived."
Xuanxuan took off into the air, placing her little palms on her forehead, gazing into the distance.
She saw many Asura Clan mbers rapidly approaching the courtyard, surrounding sothing.
As they closed in, Xuanxuan finally saw clearly.
It was a four-zhang wide hole, with a pitch-black pillar in the middle.
It was clearly the Connecting Sky Black Pillar!
She clicked her tongue, "He really ca!"
The black-dressed girl gracefully stood up and said, "Let’s go."
"I have set the location at the courtyard gate."
Xuanxuan’s eyes glead, "Young lady, you said the person I am marrying is a tall, handso, wealthy Human Clan mber who is also considerate and devoted?"
The black-dressed girl’s faint smile froze slightly.
Her instincts told her that Jiang Fan, like her, might have introduced a problematic marriage partner.
Xuanxuan was fiery-tempered, known as the ’Little Chili Pepper’ in the entire village.
No one dared to marry her.
Jiang Fan’s introduction was likely not of a good character either, right?
She adjusted her glasses and replied, "Yes, that’s what he said."
Xuanxuan was full of anticipation.
She didn’t care about other things, but being devoted was the most important to her.
The two arrived outside the courtyard.
It was already a sea of people.
They couldn’t help it; it was the first ti in their lives they had seen the Connecting Sky Black Pillar, and they realized this was a cross-realm marriage.
The black-dressed girl calmly arrived at the entrance of the Connecting Sky Black Pillar’s opening.
Holding Xuanxuan’s hand, she stepped inside without hesitation.
"Hold on!"
A rough voice sounded.
It was a middle-aged Asura with red-tinged skin and bloodshot eyes.
The corners of his mouth naturally turned downward, and his brows furrowed close together.
His muscles were particularly full, giving off a sense of being on the verge of erupting in anger.
"Dad, what are you doing here?"
Xuanxuan said in dissatisfaction: "It’s rare for your daughter to find a spouse, don’t ruin it for !"
As it turned out, he was Xuanxuan’s father, the West Sea Crown Prince’s future father-in-law, Long Lie!
Long Lie snorted: "You can’t just marry off to anyone."
"I also need to see, only after passing my test will I allow you to marry!"
The black-dressed girl sighed secretly.
The marriage was indeed not going to be smooth sailing.
Or rather, within the Asura Clan, soone didn’t want her to continue receiving the Hell Abyss Crystals.
So they incited Long Lie to disrupt the marriage.
Where there are people, there is the world, the Asura Clan is no exception.
Hopefully, the person Jiang Fan recomnded would be reliable.
