Many in the martial world are happy to see this. Although the Simon Family serves in the imperial court, their power is both coveted and feared by those in the martial world. Even if the Simon Family's spirit power isn't that strong, it is still superior to internal force—after all, not everyone is like Damien Gray, able to master internal force to such an extraordinary degree!
When you covet something but can't obtain it, all that's left is fear. And people always wish for the things they fear to disappear!
Morgan Shangguan decided not to dwell on such matters. For now, it was more practical to think about the lively happenings at Jade Dragon Manor.
But clearly, Damien Gray didn't see it that way. He bit down gently, leaving a faint mark on her collarbone.
Morgan Shangguan frowned slightly and asked, "What are you doing?"
Damien Gray grumbled with dissatisfaction, "Shouldn't the Princess Consort be a bit more focused?"
Morgan Shangguan let out a soft laugh, her hand resting on his firm chest as she asked vaguely, "How about this?"
Damien Gray narrowed his eyes and said, "Not bad."
Morgan Shangguan smiled and asked softly, "And this?"
Damien Gray replied hoarsely, "Very good!"
Morgan Shangguan curled her lips into a smile and suddenly let go of him, saying, "Rest!"
Damien Gray was stunned for a moment. Seeing Morgan Shangguan ignore him, his face darkened. He grabbed her chin, his smile turning a bit menacing. "Is the Princess Consort planning to shirk responsibility after the deed?" he said, his gaze roaming over her body, looking ready to pounce.
Suddenly, a piercing, anguished scream rang out.
The two exchanged a glance. Morgan Shangguan asked, "Aren't we going to check it out?"
Damien Gray replied indifferently, "It's nothing. Princess Consort, you should focus on yourself!" As he spoke, he lowered his head and sealed her lips, having suddenly realized the soundproofing here wasn't very good!
In the next room, Maxwell Jing gritted his teeth, clutching his arm, tears brimming in his eyes and fury blazing. "Ethan Gu!"
Ethan Gu coughed lightly, trying to hide the smile on his lips. "I didn't do it on purpose!" he said.
Maxwell Jing exploded, "You sprinkled salt on my wound, and you say it wasn't on purpose?"
Ethan Gu raised his brows, sounding a little puzzled as he asked softly, "I'm curious how my medicine turned into salt?"
Hearing this, Maxwell Jing instantly quieted down, trying hard to recall what happened.
Well... it seems, maybe, possibly, probably he mixed it in himself. No wonder it didn't affect him! Since Ethan Gu was always careful and meticulous, Maxwell Jing just assumed he'd been found out again. Turns out, it simply hadn't been used yet!
Looking at his poor arm, Maxwell Jing felt like crying but had no tears. This must be what they call 'suffering the consequences of one's own actions.'
Just as he was wallowing in self-pity, he suddenly felt a cool sensation on his wound, the burning pain gone. Maxwell Jing turned his head, staring blankly at the injury, and asked, "What medicine is this?"
"Painkiller!"
Maxwell Jing blinked and said, "I'm not that delicate!"
"I just don't want a stain on my life!" Mistaking salt for medicine was a mistake Ethan Gu had never made before, so Maxwell Jing's prank only succeeded this one time!
Maxwell Jing pursed his lips, his eyes stinging with emotion. Suddenly, he said, "I'm tired!" Then he lay down on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.
Ethan Gu frowned, not understanding what was wrong with him now.
The next day, Liam Duanmu and Noah Duanmu bid farewell to them and headed to Jade Dragon Manor.
Meanwhile, Damien Gray and Morgan Shangguan remained at the inn. Morgan was waiting for Susie Yun, and naturally, Damien stayed to keep her company.
Shortly after noon, Susie Yun and Ryan Ouyang hurried over. Damien Gray and Morgan Shangguan also shed their titles as Ghost King and Consort. Now that no one was watching them, things were much simpler!
The Young Master of Jade Dragon Manor taking a wife—this was truly a joyous event!
Perhaps sensing something, many who usually scorned the hypocrisy of the righteous came anyway, while the orthodox sects naturally gave Jade Dragon Manor face.
Now the righteous and the demonic were truly gathered together, making for an exceptionally lively scene. Traditionally, good and evil never mix, yet this time Felix Yu invited both sides—this wedding was bound to be the most sensational in the martial world!
"Qin Fortress, Master Qin has arrived!"
"Venom Sect, Master Feng has arrived!"
"Leaf Sect Master has arrived!"
Drums and firecrackers thundered, and guests kept arriving, filling the air with joy!
"Martial Alliance Chief has arrived! Second Young Master of Grandmaster's Estate has arrived!"
As Liam Duanmu arrived, Felix Yu hurried forward to greet him personally, his face glowing with excitement and his voice full of energy. "Chief, Second Young Master, please come inside!"
Before they could take a few steps inside, a wave of floral fragrance swept over them and vibrant petals floated past their eyes. The three turned to see a pink sedan chair stop at the entrance, surrounded by a dozen stunning women. Through the pink gauze curtains, a soft, languid figure could be seen inside. The lively crowd suddenly fell silent!
Liam Duanmu and Noah Duanmu had seen such scenes before; the identity of the person inside needed no explanation.
"Heh heh..." A low, seductive laugh drifted from the sedan. "Master Yu, are you not welcoming me?"
The silence was broken, and everyone finally snapped out of it.
"Lotus Sect, Master Hua has arrived!"
Although the lively atmosphere resumed, everyone's gaze was drawn to the sedan—or more precisely, to the person inside. Quentin Hua's reputation for beauty was known throughout the martial world; naturally, everyone wanted to catch a glimpse!
At last, the curtain was lifted. The figure inside sat up and stepped out, his robe loosely open, those captivating phoenix eyes drawing every gaze. Just standing there, he exuded endless allure, enchanting all who looked.
Quentin Hua curled his lips into a smile and greeted warmly, "Master Yu, come, come, see the gift I've brought!" As he spoke, he dragged Felix Yu to the back of the sedan, regardless of his willingness. There, four beauties lifted a large chest, and as it was opened, it revealed a dazzling pile of gold!
