The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 843: Chapter 843 Unparalleled Ugliness

No one dared to tangle further!

The aggressive momentum of just a moment ago had vanished, replaced by a color of panic.

They were not fools; the aura that Jing Yan had released clearly belonged to a martial artist of the Saint Realm. All of them put together probably wouldn’t stand a chance against a few slaps from an expert of the Saint Realm.

”Please, do not be angry, sir, we were overly hasty,” the crowd hurried to apologize.

”Alright, you may leave now,” Jing Yan waved his hand and said.

In a flash, the figures scattered, and the space in front of the Pill Shop cleared. Jing Yan left the door open but the ’temporarily closed’ sign remained. He calculated the time; it was almost time to visit the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

The next day, indeed, Jiao Zhan and his two companions came to look for Jing Yan.

After the end of the auction at Rainbow Gown Rainfall Tower, they had arranged to visit the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect together to celebrate the Holy Daughter’s marriage. Today, Fang Family Young Master, Fang Jie, would take Saintess Bai Xue away from the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

”Mr. Jing, it’s about time, shall we set off now?” Jiao Zhan and his companions, after exchanging a few pleasantries with Jing Yan, asked.

”Let’s go,” Jing Yan nodded.

The Rainbow Gown Divine Sect was not inside Rainbow Gown Divine City but in the northwest direction of the city. However, it wasn’t far, and it took less than half an hour for the four of them to arrive.

Today, a large number of different powers came to offer their congratulations, and the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect specially arranged many beautiful young female disciples to receive guests.

However, entering the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect today required an invitation. Without one, one would be turned away at the gate.

Jiao Zhan and his companions had invitations. Following the three of them, Jing Yan had no trouble entering the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect. According to the rules, each invited person could bring two others into the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

Rainbow Peak of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect.

”Wow, the journey here was indeed pleasing to the eye. The Rainbow Gown Divine Sect is truly deserving of its reputation as the sect with the most female disciples within Tianxia Divine Domain,” Mu Bing marveled as they arrived at Rainbow Peak.

”It’s really bustling!” Jing Yan scanned the area before him.

”Yes, the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect is a Second Grade Force, and the Holy Daughter’s marriage is a significant event. Plus, it involves the Fang Family Young Master marrying the Holy Daughter. Most major and minor powers in the Divine Domain will send someone to offer congratulations, even if they don’t get along behind the scenes. They still maintain surface-level decorum unless the enmity is extremely deep,” Zhuo Liusu softly said.

”Mr. Jing, look over there, those three on the high platform are the Sect Masters of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect,” Jiao Zhan pointed in one direction and said to Jing Yan.

Jing Yan followed his gaze and nodded.

”Mr. Jing, we should go over and present our congratulatory gift...” Jiao Zhan continued, his face slightly uneasy.

He knew that Jing Yan had come to the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect to see if the Saintess Bai Xue was the same Bai Xue he recognized. If it was, then Jing Yan would definitely not be happy to see Bai Xue marry the Fang Family Young Master. And this time, giving a congratulatory gift on behalf of his family, he was somewhat worried it would displease Jing Yan.

”Do as you please, I won’t go over,” Jing Yan, noticing Jiao Zhan’s discomfort, said with a smile.

”Thank you, Mr. Jing,” Jiao Zhan bowed.

Then, the three of them headed toward the high platform where the three Sect Masters of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect stood. At this moment, a steady stream of people went up to present their gifts and offer congratulatory remarks.

The forces in good standing with the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect sent their top leaders to offer congratulations, some even coming personally. Like the Jiao Family, a Second Grade Force with average relations to the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, they did not send their top figures but still sent important family members, like Jiao Zhan and his companions, representing their respective forces.

”Jiao Zhan of the Jiao Family from Cold Winter City, respectfully congratulates the Holy Daughter of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect on her wedding. With a modest gift, I beseech the Divine Sect Master to accept it.”

”Jinhuan City...”

The three people from the Jiao Family presented their congratulatory gifts together.

”It turns out to be Young Master Jiao Zhan, the Zhuo Family Patriarch’s precious daughter...” The Great Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect accepted their presents with a smile, displaying impeccable courtesy.

After the gifts were given, the three people from the Jiao Family returned to Jing Yan’s side.

An entire hour had passed before the procedure of presenting the congratulatory gifts was finally completed, and all the visitors had found their designated seats.

At this moment, the breathing of the three from the Jiao Family became erratic; their gazes were fixated in one direction.

Jing Yan also looked over.

There, a Martial Artist clad in a golden robe ascended the platform, followed closely by a gaunt old man who never left his side.

This Martial Artist in the golden robe was exceptionally ugly; not only were his eyes mismatched in size, but one arm was also longer than the other. His head was huge, about twice the size of a normal person’s, yet his body was shorter than that of an average man.

Fang Jie!

Jing Yan instantly guessed the identity of this man—no wonder Jiao Zhan had such an expression when mentioning Fang Jie earlier.

”Mr. Jing, that is Fang Jie, the Young Master of the Fang Family,” Jiao Zhan whispered to Jing Yan in introduction.

”Indeed, his appearance is extremely unsightly,” Jing Yan nodded in agreement.

”If it were only his looks, it would be tolerable, but the problem is his vicious nature. Anyone who opposes him meets with a dire fate. He not only kills them but also eats their brains alive!” Jiao Zhan frowned deeply.

”If I were to marry him, I’d rather die,” Zhuo Liusu said with a look of disgust, gazing at the platform.

”Sister Liusu, you do need to be careful. Don’t let that Fang Jie take a liking to you. Otherwise, if he asks the Zhuo Family for your hand in marriage, it would be a difficult situation for them,” Mu Bing said with a laugh.

Zhuo Liusu’s delicate body trembled. She quickly lowered her head as if genuinely afraid of catching Fang Jie’s attention.

”Fellow Daoists!”

At this time, the three Sect Masters on the platform, led by the Great Sect Master, spoke up.

”Today, as the Holy Daughter of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect is wed, I wish to thank all the fellow daoists for your presence,” the Great Sect Master said slowly, sweeping his gaze across the crowd.

”Saintess Bai Xue marrying Young Master Fang Jie is a joyous occasion for the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect; naturally, we came to offer our congratulations!” A middle-aged Martial Artist in the crowd spoke up loudly.

”That man is the Sect Master of the Clear Spring Sect, a Second Grade Force with a strong relationship with the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect. I’ve heard from my father that this Sect Master once had the same master as the Great Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect. However, this connection is from a long time ago, and today, perhaps not many people know of this,” Jiao Zhan immediately introduced the speaking middle-aged Martial Artist to Jing Yan.

”Well said, Sect Master Long!” Fang Jie on the platform made a fist and palm salute to the Clear Spring Sect Master.

The Clear Spring Sect Master burst into laughter and returned the gesture to Fang Jie.

”Great Sect Master, we are being detained. I’m in a hurry to return; please, bring out Saintess Bai Xue!” Fang Jie turned to urge the Great Sect Master.

”Bring Saintess Bai Xue here,” the Great Sect Master’s eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with Fang Jie’s impatience. Still, she didn’t say much and simply instructed her subordinates to fetch Saintess Bai Xue.
