Chapter 315: Such Shamelessness
This subtle movement did not attract the crowd's attention. Not even those around Lin Feng noticed the glance, as their focus was entirely drawn to the figures on the high platform.
The genius disciples of the Yue Family and the Yu Family had all arrived. On this viewing platform, true elites had gathered.
Watching the disciples of the Snow Moon Holy Academy, each one heroic and spirited, the crowd silently praised them. They were all talented youths with outstanding gifts. The future of the Snow Moon Kingdom perhaps rested on the shoulders of these people.
They were the finest young generation of the Snow Moon Kingdom, the future pillars of the Snow Moon.
Of course, this was just the view of the majority. There were still those who believed that in the Snow Moon Kingdom, there were even more geniuses who were not present here.
Those truly extraordinary individuals disdained such occasions. Their stage would not be a wedding platform, but a battlefield, a stage of glory.
And there were a very few who held contempt for the so-called talented youths on the high platform—contempt from the very depths of their hearts. For example, Lin Feng.
The lively atmosphere continued, filled with laughter. On the distant main road, many figures converged from all directions, stepping into the Prince's Mansion. These people had traveled through the outer city of the Snow Moon Kingdom's imperial capital, making sure everyone knew that today, Wenren Yan, the genius disciple of the Snow Moon Holy Academy, would marry the royal family's Little Princess, Duan Yu. It was as if the Duan Family feared someone might not know.
Behind the Duan Family's wedding procession, countless figures followed. They were people drawn by the commotion, wanting to see how grand the wedding of the Snow Moon Holy Academy's genius Wenren Yan and Duan Yu would be.
The space became exceptionally noisy. When those people heard the crowd discussing that many genius disciples of the Snow Moon Holy Academy had come, including even Yue Tianchen of the Yue Family and Yu Tianxing of the Yu Family, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. It seemed this trip was not in vain. Being able to see these lofty figures was well worth the journey.
Especially when they saw Yue Tianchen and Yu Tianxing, handsome and extraordinary, carrying an air of noble aristocracy, they all sighed inwardly. The geniuses of great families were truly remarkable.
However, despite the lively and festive atmosphere, the main protagonists of the occasion, Wenren Yan and Duan Yu, had yet to appear.
At this moment, Duan Lie on the high platform suddenly stood up, raising both hands to signal for silence. The crowd's voices gradually subsided, eventually falling quiet, waiting to hear what Duan Lie had to say.
Duan Lie cleared his throat and then spoke loudly: "I am deeply honored that all of you could come to my mansion. Here, I wish to say a few simple words."
"Wenren Yan, once the universally recognized first genius of the Cloud Sea Sect, possessed remarkable cultivation at a young age. The Cloud Sea Sect regarded him as the future of the sect, its pillar, and even planned to pass the leadership of the sect to him. However, later the Cloud Sea Sect was destroyed. Brother Heavenly Wolf King slaughtered the Cloud Sea with a wave of his hand, yet he alone spared Wenren Yan because he recognized his talent. At that time, Wenren was only seventeen or eighteen, young and brash. He even refused Brother Heavenly Wolf King's goodwill, wanting to perish together with the sect. But in the end, Brother Heavenly Wolf King's appreciation for talent moved Wenren, allowing him to join the Snow Moon Holy Academy. From then on, Wenren Yan became a member of the Snow Moon Holy Academy, and even among the elite gathered there, he was still considered a genius, receiving focused training. It can be said that Wenren Yan is outstanding in both talent and character. Therefore, I, Duan Lie, have decided to entrust my daughter, Duan Yu, to him."
Duan Lie's voice carried a hint of pride, portraying Wenren Yan as utterly perfect, with exceptional talent and character. It was for this reason that he had chosen Wenren Yan as his son-in-law.
The crowd immediately began whispering among themselves again. How impressive! The first genius of the Cloud Sea Sect, originally the future sect leader of the Cloud Sea Sect. Unfortunately, the Cloud Sea was destroyed, but a genius shines brightly no matter where they are. The Heavenly Wolf King did not kill him but instead recruited and valued him. This Wenren Yan was indeed a genius. No wonder he could marry Duan Yu, who possessed royal blood.
However, some were skeptical. A few people knew that Lin Feng, who had stirred up a bloody storm in the Snow Moon Kingdom about half a year ago, also seemed to be from the Cloud Sea Sect. With Lin Feng in the Cloud Sea Sect, could Wenren Yan truly be the first genius?
Lin Feng's eyes were filled with mocking sneers. Wenren Yan? The first genius?
Even more ridiculous was the claim that Wenren Yan's character and talent were both extremely outstanding.
This Duan Lie, for the sake of face, was utterly shameless. By portraying Wenren Yan as so excellent, he was undoubtedly elevating his daughter and himself.
The ridiculous part was that so many people actually believed it. Right beside him, many were praising Wenren Yan, their tones filled with admiration.
"Alright, I won't say more. Let's have a look at the newlyweds." Duan Lie smiled and slowly sat down. At that moment, within the Prince's Mansion, countless colorful silk ribbons suddenly drifted out, extremely dazzling. In just an instant, these colorful ribbons filled the sky, wrapping together into a mass.
The crowd looked up at the sky, watching the colorful ribbons flutter before their eyes, blocking out the sky.
Just then, beneath the endless ribbons, a pair of legs appeared, then slowly descended.
"Hmm?" The crowd's eyes trembled. A figure appeared—no, two figures. A handsome young man was holding a beautiful woman in his arms. Their bodies slowly floated down, finally landing in the center of the stage, dazzling many.
The colorful ribbons in the sky also slowly fell, covering the vast area. The faces of the two figures finally became clearly visible to the crowd.
"Handsome and beautiful. They really are a perfect match." Many hearts trembled, revealing expressions of envy.
Wenren Yan was full of vitality, handsome and dashing. Duan Yu was beautiful and delicate, very charming. Together, they complemented each other perfectly.
Lin Feng also looked at the two. Nearly two years had passed. Now, Wenren Yan was more mature, and his increased strength made his demeanor even more proud.
As for Duan Yu, she was even more beautiful than before, no longer so naive, carrying a touch of mature beauty. It was quite rare. Unfortunately, she could have married anyone, but she chose Wenren Yan. Lin Feng could only say he was sorry. Today, Wenren Yan would surely die.
"Wenren, you must have heard my words just now. Take this opportunity to say a few words to everyone who has come to support us." Duan Lie looked at Wenren Yan and said with a loud laugh.
Wenren Yan nodded slightly, then looked at the crowd and spoke: "I, Wenren Yan, cultivated martial arts at the Cloud Sea Sect and became a genius of the sect. Just as my father-in-law said, I was regarded as the most outstanding genius of the Cloud Sea Sect. Everyone saw me as the future sect leader. But alas, events are unpredictable and ever-changing. The Cloud Sea Sect was destroyed, and by a twist of fate, I became a disciple of the Snow Moon Holy Academy, valued by the academy. I, Wenren Yan, naturally devote myself to arduous cultivation, constantly striving forward on the path of martial strength. And now, I am fortunate enough to marry the Little Princess, Yu'er. This is truly a fate across three lifetimes. I wish to spend this life with Yu'er, never to abandon her."
"As for my character, my father-in-law has already spoken. I believe everyone's eyes are sharp. Today, let you all bear witness: I, Wenren Yan, will never betray my wife, Duan Yu, in this life."
Wenren Yan's words seemed to come from the depths of his heart, touching deeply, causing the crowd to nod inwardly. Wenren Yan was good—gifted with extraordinary talent, yet still so humble and of excellent character. He was someone worthy of trust.
"Good!" Duan Lie shouted loudly, seeming very pleased.
"Brother Wenren's talent and character need no further elaboration. I believe the two of you will surely become a fairy couple."
"That's right. Senior Brother Wenren has always been the most talented among us. His future is boundless."
The people on the viewing platform boasted one after another, elevating Wenren Yan to a rarity in the mortal world—unparalleled in talent and flawless in character.
"In my entire life, this is the first time I have seen such shameless, disgusting individuals."
Just as everyone was praising Wenren Yan, a very untimely voice rang out. The crowd's voices instantly quieted, then gradually faded until they disappeared.
Someone was insulting Wenren Yan on his wedding day.
Moreover, the people seated on the high platform were all of status. Who would dare to challenge their dignity?
The crowd's eyes kept shifting, searching for the speaker. Then, they saw a figure squeeze through the gaps in the crowd and slowly step onto the high platform.
This figure wore a white long robe—not luxurious, but clean and neat.
Long hair gently danced in the wind. There was no arrogant spirit or lofty aura, but rather a carefree and indifferent elegance, as if even if heaven and earth shattered, he would remain unmoved!
