Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 506: Chapter 505: Conflict_1

The sudden shout instantly drew everyone’s attention. As they looked in the direction of the sound, their gazes unanimously fell upon the figure that had just appeared.

”See? I told you my brother wouldn’t just sit by... Huh? Why is it an uncle?”

Ling Yin had thought it was Ling Chen. However, when she looked closely, she saw it was only a one-eyed uncle, and her disappointment was immense.

Almost simultaneously, Xu Ruoyan’s delicate body trembled. She too seemed to look up, her heart leaping. But upon seeing that the man was not whom she had hoped for, she disappointedly withdrew her gaze.

What’s wrong with me?

Xu Ruoyan couldn’t help but smile self-deprecatingly. She had thought she had completely forgotten Ling Chen, yet unexpectedly, when it came down to it, she still found herself hoping he would appear.

Xu Ruoyan, you truly are despicable. That man was an accomplice in your father’s murder, the son of your enemy. You absolutely cannot develop feelings for him again.

Muttering these words to herself, Xu Ruoyan’s expression quickly returned to its usual coldness.

This woman, deep down, still hasn’t forgotten Ling Chen.

Witnessing Xu Ruoyan’s change in expression, an inexplicable anger welled up inside the Gentleman of the Wind.

”Who dares to disrupt the ceremony!”

Dong Shenglong and the other high-ranking members of Sky Void Palace looked displeased at someone interrupting the wedding. This person was far too ill-mannered.

Amidst their astonishment, the eyes of the numerous guests also glinted with curiosity, all wondering what this person intended to do.

”I am merely acting on someone’s behalf. I have a question for Miss Xu Ruoyan.”

Ling Chen remained composed, his figure unwavering, as he fixed his gaze on Xu Ruoyan, who wore a red wedding veil.

”Whatever you have to say, you can wait until after the ceremony is over!” an Elder from Sky Void Palace rebuked him harshly.

”Elder, it won’t hurt to hear him out.”

Xu Ruoyan raised her hand to stop the Sky Void Palace Elder and looked at the peculiar one-eyed man before her. ”You just said you were acting on someone else’s behalf. I’d like to ask, on whose behalf are you acting?”

”Your old friend, Ling Chen,” Ling Chen spoke without hesitation. ”He asked me to ask you: is this marriage something you are willingly entering? Or is someone forcing you, coercing you into marrying this man?”

”Then please relay my answer to him,” Xu Ruoyan chuckled coldly. Then, to everyone’s surprise, she proactively took the arm of the Gentleman of the Wind. ”I orchestrated this marriage myself, and marrying Senior Brother Gentleman of the Wind is entirely my own wish. Your Excellency, do you have any other questions?”

”Enough with the questions! Step aside at once, or don’t blame me for getting rough!”

Seeing Ling Chen intended to ask more, Dong Shenglong’s expression darkened. Ling Chen’s appearance had been unexpected, and he had already allowed the man to speak for too long. This wedding was a momentous occasion for Sky Void Palace. If it were disrupted, the Palace’s reputation and prestige would undoubtedly suffer a severe blow.

This inexplicable fellow could not be allowed to utter another word.

At this moment, Xia Yunxin tugged on Ling Chen’s sleeve from behind. If things became too conspicuous and their identities were exposed, it would mean trouble.

”You foolish woman.”

Suddenly, Ling Chen looked up, his gaze like two sharp swords piercing towards Xu Ruoyan, sending a chill down her spine.

”So foolish, it’s beyond saving.”

”Do you really think this is how you get revenge?” Ling Chen suddenly sneered. ”What do you know? Woman, you know absolutely nothing...”

”What are you talking about?”

Xu Ruoyan was somewhat bewildered. This man, whom she didn’t recognize at all, was suddenly spouting such inexplicable words. Who exactly was this person before her?

”Haven’t you said quite enough, Your Excellency!”

The Gentleman of the Wind was also growing impatient, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes. If not for the many watchful eyes, he would have already struck and killed Ling Chen on the spot.

Ling Chen directly ignored the Gentleman of the Wind’s warning and suddenly let out a clear, youthful laugh. ”My apologies, but as long as I am here today, this wedding will not proceed!”

”What?”

The moment his words fell, the entire venue instantly erupted into an uproar.

This guy, it seems he hasn’t listened to a word I said at all. Behind Ling Chen, Xia Yunxin felt a headache coming on. Ling Chen had completely ignored her advice, not taking in a single word.

”He wants to stop the wedding? Has this fellow gone mad?”

”What does this wedding have to do with him? Could it be that he’s also one of Miss Xu’s admirers?”

”How pitiful. He probably couldn’t bear to see the goddess of his heart marry another, so he impulsively jumped out. His brain is addled by lust; he’s hopeless.”

The crowd buzzed with discussion, their gazes towards Ling Chen filled with mockery.

”Audacious!”

Dong Shenglong could no longer tolerate Ling Chen’s unbridled actions. He abruptly rose from his seat. ”Seize this man!”

WHOOSH!

Instantly, several Protectors and Elders of Sky Void Palace stood up and closed in on Ling Chen.

”You think a few of you can stop me?” Ling Chen sneered, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes. Since he had already decided to ruin the wedding today, he might as well turn the place upside down!

”What did you say? Where did this country bumpkin come from, daring to speak so arrogantly?” A Sky Void Palace Protector roared in anger. Judging by this man’s attire, he was clearly not from any prominent Righteous Sects. For such a minor character to dare speak so insolently was simply courting death.

With that, he suddenly thrust out his palm, aiming fiercely at Ling Chen’s face.

Vast True Qi surged from his palm. This Sky Void Palace Protector was indeed formidable, possessing the cultivation of a Great Grandmaster Eighth Layer.

”That uncle is doomed.” Ling Yin gasped, her small mouth wide open, watching the palm about to strike Ling Chen’s face.

”It can’t be helped. Disrupting this wedding is tantamount to slapping Sky Void Palace in the face. I’m afraid this gentleman is going to lose his life here today.” Nie Wu Xiang shook his head. To dare act so wantonly on such an occasion without sufficient strength is no different from seeking death.

BANG!

With the sound of impact, everyone’s gaze focused on Ling Chen. Many were eager to see Ling Chen make a fool of himself, waiting to witness him being killed on the spot. But in the next moment, shock filled everyone’s eyes.

Before their eyes, the palm strike delivered by the Sky Void Palace Protector was actually stopped by two of Ling Chen’s outstretched fingers. It halted a mere two inches from Ling Chen’s head, unable to advance even half a fraction more.

”How is this possible?”

That Sky Void Palace Protector was also greatly astonished. He strained with all his might, trying to push his palm forward, but found Ling Chen’s two fingers to be as immovable as the most stable object in the world. No matter how much force he exerted, he could not budge them.

SWOOSH!

Suddenly, Ling Chen withdrew his fingers, then his fingers jabbed out again like lightning, precisely striking the Protector’s glabella.

The next moment, the Sky Void Palace Protector shot backward like a cannonball, flying several tens of meters and smashing a table to smithereens.
