After Shen Lang and Wang Yuyan got married, they did not live in the Song Family Manor. They still resided in the Emperor Villa Garden, and their lives remained largely unchanged.
For the next few days, Shen Lang and Wang Yuyan were inseparable. During the day, they drove to visit famous historical sites in Nanling. At night, they cooked at home, and after dinner, Wang Yuyan would nestle in Shen Lang's arms while watching television.
These days were ordinary, but this was precisely what Shen Lang desired. Therefore, he experienced a happiness he had never known before.
However, after the fifth day, this peaceful happiness was shattered because an uninvited guest arrived.
The visitor to the villa was a woman in red. She was beautiful, but her expression was grim.
This woman was none other than Miss Tang Wan'er of the Tang Sect, and to a certain extent, Shen Lang's fiancée.
However, Shen Lang had never truly considered this fiancée to be important.
Back in the Shu region, at the Tang Sect, Shen Lang had made a deal with Tang Jiutian using the Myriad Leaves Flying Flowers technique, which led to this arranged marriage. But at that time, Shen Lang's strength was insufficient, so he had intended to use delaying tactics to postpone their revenge.
After this period of cultivation and a series of fortunate encounters, although Shen Lang was only at the peak of the Earth Realm, he now possessed the strength to kill an expert in the mid-stage of the Heaven Realm. With this power, what else was there to fear?
"Oh, isn't this Miss Tang? A rare visitor."
Upon seeing Tang Wan'er enter, Shen Lang smiled and said, "Since coming to Nanling, apart from the time you encountered danger, this is only my second time seeing you. May I ask the purpose of your visit today?"
With his improved strength, Shen Lang's confidence had grown, and he no longer harbored as much apprehension towards the Tang Sect. Thus, he spoke to Tang Wan'er with great casualness.
"Shen Lang, I am not here to congratulate you on your wedding. I am here to declare war on you on behalf of the Tang Sect."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Tang Wan'er said coldly, "You proposed to my father in Shu, and my father agreed. The entire Tang Sect in Shu knows that I am your fiancée. Now you have married another woman. You are trampling on the dignity of the Tang Sect, my dignity, and even my father's dignity. Shen Lang, you have become an irreconcilable enemy of the Tang Sect."
"As if we could truly live in peace and become a loving family if I didn't marry another woman. What is fake is ultimately fake, and everything must end. I am prepared for all of this."
Shen Lang sat on the sofa, holding a cup of milk that Wang Yuyan had warmed for him that morning.
After taking a sip of milk, Shen Lang smiled and said to Tang Wan'er, "Tang Zixuan died because of me. Tang Qubing was crippled because of me. Two of the Tang Sect's Eight Steeds also fell by my hand. The Tang Sect and I have always been mortal enemies. You declare war; I do not object. I will accept your challenge."
"Shen Lang, do not be so arrogant. Do you really think you can stand against the entire Tang Sect by yourself?"
Tang Wan'er had expected Shen Lang to be at least a little afraid upon hearing the Tang Sect's declaration of war. She was surprised that there was not a trace of fear on his face.
"She can't do it alone, but I'm here. I can help him."
As Tang Wan'er finished speaking, Wang Yuyan walked over, carrying a plate of fruit, and smiled. "I don't know the strength of the Tang Sect, but if anyone dares to harm my husband, no matter who they are or what organization they belong to, I will stand firmly with him and confront them."
"Wang Yuyan, on what grounds?"
Hearing Wang Yuyan's words, Tang Wan'er sneered and said, "You are just an ordinary person. What right do you have to say such things?"
"Oh, so ordinary people don't have the right to share hardships with their husbands?"
Wang Yuyan smiled and said, "Tang Wan'er, now I understand why my husband dislikes you. You truly lack any charm."
"You—"
Scoffed at like this by Wang Yuyan, Tang Wan'er became furious and said, "Wang Yuyan, don't get too smug. Shen Lang has offended the entire Tang Sect, and he will surely die sooner or later. You will become a widow then."
"Hmph, even if I become a widow, I will still be the daughter-in-law of the Shen family and Shen Lang's wife. I have my status and position. What is there for me to be afraid of?"
Wang Yuyan looked at Tang Wan'er and mocked, "On the other hand, you were engaged, and then he married someone else. In the future, it won't just be people from the Tang Sect laughing at you; others will also see you as a joke."
"Miss Tang Sect? Oh, no, Miss Tang Joke."
Wang Yuyan was naturally sharp-tongued. Even Shen Lang couldn't gain an advantage over her. Tang Wan'er was far inferior to Wang Yuyan. Therefore, within a few sentences, Wang Yuyan angered her into a furious rage. After casting a vicious glare at Shen Lang, Tang Wan'er stormed off.
"You, your mouth is always so sharp."
After Tang Wan'er left, Shen Lang pinched Wang Yuyan's nose and smiled. "Although Tang Wan'er is a bit of a yandere, she truly represents the Tang Sect. It seems we will have trouble in the future."
"As long as you are here, I am not afraid."
Wang Yuyan looked at Shen Lang tenderly and said, "I believe that as long as you are here, the Tang Sect cannot make any waves."
"Yes—"
Hearing this, Shen Lang seemed to have a good idea. He picked up his phone and dialed Song Shaodao.
The call was answered after five seconds, and soon, Song Shaodao's voice came from the other end.
"Kid, you're in the midst of your honeymoon, what's this sudden call about?"
Song Shaodao had always been fond of his nephew. Especially recently, Shen Lang had brought him honor by leading the Nanling Martial Guard's Grand Competition to victory, making him even more fond of the boy. Thus, Song Shaodao's tone was filled with doting affection.
"It's like this, Uncle. I want to ask if the Song Family Manor has surveillance?"
Shen Lang smiled and spoke into the phone to Song Shaodao.
"Surveillance? Of course, we do, and it's comprehensive coverage."
Song Shaodao replied, "Originally, we only had it in some important areas. But after your mother was poisoned by the snake last time, I added over a hundred more cameras, leaving no blind spots."
"So, everything at my wedding was recorded?"
Hearing his uncle's words, Shen Lang's voice was filled with excitement.
"Of course, does that even need to be asked?"
Song Shaodao said, "I already had someone copy the surveillance footage of your wedding. If you need it, I can provide you with a copy."
"Good—"
Shen Lang was overjoyed and said, "Uncle, I hope you can give it to me as soon as possible."
"What are you going to do with this, kid?"
Song Shaodao was very curious upon hearing Shen Lang's words.
Song Shaodao knew his nephew well; this was not someone who would cause trouble for nothing. If he suddenly asked for surveillance footage, he must have some plan in mind.
Shen Lang replied, "Uncle, I want to give Tang Jiutian a surprise."
