# Chapter 1472: Suspicion
The ethereal figure held by Qi Yan's hand was pure as an immortal, carrying a sense of drifting grace, incredibly beautiful—she was none other than one of the Four Great Beauties of the Eight Wastelands!
"When did the Qi family establish such a relationship with the Sky Dome Immortal Palace?" the crowd wondered. The beautiful figure that had appeared was actually Xue Biyao of the Eight Wastelands!
When Lin Feng saw that the figure was Xue Biyao, he felt somewhat uncomfortable in his heart. Although he and Xue Biyao had once had misunderstandings, the two of them were still acquaintances. Because of her, he had been able to obtain the Creation Saint Pill that allowed Meng Qing to regain her human form. But Qi Yan was a member of the Qi family, his enemy. Seeing the two of them together naturally made Lin Feng feel uneasy.
Of course, this was Xue Biyao's choice, and Lin Feng had no right to interfere. Qi Yan held enmity toward him, but Xue Biyao did not. Moreover, Qi Yan was the son of the Eastern Emperor and the younger brother of Qi Huang, a rare talent among the younger generation of the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms. Xue Biyao's union with him did not seem so difficult to understand.
"I didn't expect the Sky Dome Immortal Palace to become like the Heavenly Dragon Divine Fortress—disappointing!" Yu Huang said after seeing Xue Biyao, his voice carrying a hint of coldness, as if he were even more displeased than Lin Feng.
"Is this a political marriage?" Lin Feng murmured. The identities of the two were truly special—one was the son of the Eastern Emperor, the other a holy maiden of the Sky Dome Immortal Palace. Behind them both stood Martial Emperor-level forces. Such unions between powers almost always involved elements of political marriage. It wasn't just Lin Feng who thought this; after seeing Xue Biyao, many among the crowd of the Eight Wastelands also harbored such thoughts.
Among the crowd, there were not a few who admired Xue Biyao. Seeing the two before them, they revealed expressions of disappointment. Xue Biyao was actually going to marry Qi Yan.
Xue Biyao was one of the Four Great Beauties of the Eight Wastelands, possessing an immortal spirit body, beautiful as a celestial maiden, with a unique charm that made her desirable—she was the ideal lover in many people's hearts.
"There shouldn't have been much interaction between Qi Yan and Xue Biyao!" Hou Qinglin said, frowning as he heard Yu Huang's words, speaking indifferently.
"Her eyes are wrong!" At this moment, Lin Feng's brow furrowed slightly as his gaze fell upon Xue Biyao's beautiful eyes. Today was the grand wedding of Xue Biyao and Qi Yan. If the two loved each other, Xue Biyao should have been happy. But at this moment, Xue Biyao's eyes were very cold, and within that coldness was a trace of confusion. It was only when Qi Yan pulled her forward that she would lift her feet and move. Those beautiful eyes looked at the crowd but lacked a bit of spiritual vitality.
"Indeed, something is off!" Tian Chi also said in a low voice. Tian Chi cultivated Buddhism; his Buddha eyes could see into people's hearts. Not to mention him, everyone seated here was a powerful figure in their own right. How could they fail to notice the abnormality in her eyes? Anyone who had seen Xue Biyao before should be able to sense that the current Xue Biyao seemed somewhat wrong.
"I'm afraid she is not acting of her own free will—she is not willing!" Yu Huang said coldly. On the Sun War Chariot, two figures stepped onto the auspicious path, slowly descending from the sky toward the ground below, passing through the sun formed by the Red Sun Golden Crow, as if descending from the heavens into the mortal world, like an immortal couple that everyone envied. But whether the reality behind it was as radiant and dazzling, the crowd could not know.
"Qi Yan, today all the emperors have come to offer congratulations. You and Biyao should go and toast the senior emperors." Qi Yan and Xue Biyao stepped onto the auspicious path and descended to the front of the crowd. The Eastern Emperor had a smile on his face as he spoke to Qi Yan with a laugh.
"Yes, Father!" Qi Yan nodded slightly, then led Xue Biyao to the table of the Envoy. Smiling, he said, "Envoy, for you to come to our Qi kingdom to attend this junior's wedding banquet, Qi Yan feels supremely honored. I toast you, Envoy!"
"You're too polite, young man. The girl is not bad—so beautiful and moving, a perfect match!" The Envoy was all smiles, quite courteous. The two clinked glasses, but the Envoy remained seated throughout, no matter who came to toast him.
"Envoy, please make yourself at home. Qi Yan apologizes for any inadequate hospitality!" Qi Yan said politely, then proceeded to toast several other young men. What displeased Qi Yan was that not one of these people stood up; they all remained seated, as if they were superior, calmly drinking with Qi Yan, who stood to toast them. In fact, their gazes lingered on Xue Biyao longer than on Qi Yan.
But Qi Yan remained calm throughout, moving to each table as the Eastern Emperor had instructed, toasting all the Martial Emperors one by one. Some gave Qi Yan face and stood up to drink, while others remained calmly seated, casually raising their glasses.
All of this was clearly observed by the Eastern Emperor. A calm smile was on his face as his eyes constantly watched Qi Yan—or rather, watched how others treated Qi Yan.
When Qi Yan reached Yu Huang's table, he sneered at Yu Huang and the others, then prepared to walk past them. This table didn't need toasting. The relationship between the Qi kingdom, the Qi family, and the Heavenly Terrace was known to all. He, Qi Yan, had no need to give Yu Huang face.
As Xue Biyao passed by, her beautiful eyes glanced at Lin Feng, her brow slightly furrowed as if she were pondering something. But then she followed Qi Yan past.
"Wait!" At this moment, Lin Feng spoke indifferently, causing Qi Yan and Xue Biyao's steps to pause slightly. They turned to look at Lin Feng, who had spoken.
Lin Feng stood up. Before him, Xue Biyao wore an ancient phoenix crown, her beauty enough to make fish sink and geese fall. Although she had an immortal spirit aura, she also seemed somewhat cold.
Xue Biyao's brow furrowed even more tightly as she stared at Lin Feng.
"Fairy Xue, don't you recognize me?" Lin Feng asked Xue Biyao.
"Let's go!" Qi Yan pulled Xue Biyao, moving forward. Xue Biyao's body followed Qi Yan's retreat, but she still looked at Lin Feng.
"Qi Yan!" Lin Feng called out. Qi Yan turned around, a cold gleam flashing in his eyes as he stared coldly at Lin Feng. "Lin Feng, today is my wedding day. Show some respect, or else, even if Senior Yu Huang is here, he won't be able to protect you!"
"I just want to ask Fairy Xue a few questions. Qi Yan, what are you nervous about?" Lin Feng sneered. At this moment, he was even more certain of his and Yu Huang's speculation—Xue Biyao seemed to be in some kind of trouble.
"Fairy Xue, you and I once had intimate contact. Do you still remember?" Lin Feng boldly spoke, causing Qi Yan's expression to stiffen. He said coldly, "Lin Feng, if you disrespect my wife again, don't blame me for being rude!"
"If you want to fight me, I can agree right now!" Lin Feng remained cold, his gaze still fixed on Xue Biyao. "Biyao, you and I once made vows of eternal love. Have you forgotten all of that now?"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the corners of the crowd's mouths twitched slightly. This guy actually had such a relationship with Xue Biyao?
Not far away, there was another extremely beautiful woman, Yiren Lei. Her eyes, looking at Lin Feng, carried a hint of resentment. This guy had actually hooked up with Xue Biyao too!
"Who are you?" Xue Biyao finally spoke, her voice very cold. She should have known Lin Feng. Moreover, this person said they had intimate contact and had made vows of eternal love. What was going on?
"Whoosh!" A vast aura rolled toward Lin Feng as Qi Huang strode over. But Yu Huang smiled faintly, stepping in front of Lin Feng, and said with a laugh, "Qi Huang, no need to be angry. Qi Yan didn't toast our Heavenly Terrace table, and Lin Feng was displeased. He was just joking with everyone!"
"Just a joke!" Lin Feng shrugged, then sat down, lightly drinking a cup of wine, muttering to himself, "Before I entered the City of Fate, I once fought with Fairy Xue outside the City of Fate. Countless people witnessed it. And before that, I had already formed an indissoluble bond with Fairy Xue. Now, Fairy Xue can't even recognize me, Lin Feng. A martial artist's memory shouldn't be this poor!"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the crowd understood. This guy was actually exposing it.
"Martial Emperor-level experts possess extraordinary means. Even sealing memories with divine thought power is possible. What's so strange about that? Lin Feng, there's still much for you to learn!" Yu Huang said calmly, as if conversing with Lin Feng.
"Biyao, let's go!" Qi Yan took Xue Biyao's hand and moved forward. But this time, Xue Biyao didn't comply with him. She stood still, looking at Lin Feng and Yu Huang. Martial Emperor-level experts could seal people's memories!
"Master, how could one change a person's thoughts?"
"Very simple. After sealing the memory, using illusion dream techniques to instill fabricated memories into them, causing the person to form false impressions, overturn their thoughts, forget everything from before, and be manipulated by others. Of course, besides what I've mentioned, pills can also play a role!" Yu Huang continued speaking.
"Yu Huang, you seem to be talking quite a lot!" Qi Huang said coldly.
"Am I disturbing you, Qi Huang?" Yu Huang looked up, staring blankly at Qi Huang, a faint smile on his face.
"Of course not!" Qi Huang denied. If he admitted it, wouldn't he be slapping his own face?
"Biyao, what's wrong with you?" Qi Yan said softly to Xue Biyao. Xue Biyao was still looking at Lin Feng and Yu Huang. Their words seemed to have another meaning!
"Master, if someone's memory has been sealed, can you detect it and undo it?" Lin Feng asked again.
"Detecting it is no problem. As for undoing it, it depends on the cultivation level of the person who sealed it!" Yu Huang smiled faintly. Xue Biyao broke free from Qi Yan's hand and walked toward Yu Huang. Qi Yan's expression stiffened as he stepped forward and said, "Biyao, don't listen to their nonsense!"
"I'll let him check whether my memory has been sealed. Even if it hasn't, I won't suffer any harm!" Xue Biyao said to Qi Yan. This put Qi Yan in an awkward position. He had no way to refute Xue Biyao's words!
