The moment Xia Feng stood up, everyone's gaze fell upon him.
Xing Yongnian and Zhi Ruizhen, in particular, looked at him with killing intent in their eyes.
The way a man treats a woman is different from how he treats another man, especially when accompanied by a group of beautiful women. It felt even more pronounced.
At that moment, the two exchanged glances, both eager to make a move against Xia Feng.
"What are you? How dare you come to my wedding and cause trouble?"
Before Xia Feng could even speak after standing up, Zhi Ruizhen pointed at him and began to curse.
"Who are you? I've never seen you on Gu Ji Island before?" Xing Yongnian also questioned Xia Feng.
Xia Feng sensed their killing intent but showed no emotional fluctuation on his face.
These two were true super experts in the eyes of others, but before him, they were merely ants.
Did ants dare to compete with the bright moon?
Xia Feng did not answer their questions. Instead, he pointed at Gongyu Jinghan on the stage and said, "I want to take this woman with me."
No further words, just a simple statement.
Gongyu Jinghan was being forced into marriage, and she was also Li Yurou's childhood friend. Since Li Yurou had already pleaded for her, he naturally had to help.
When Xia Feng uttered, "I want to take this woman with me," Gongyu Jinghan secretly worried for them.
When Li Yurou had spoken up earlier, there was still a glimmer of hope. Now, with Xia Feng's interjection, the situation had truly changed.
Indeed, as soon as Xia Feng spoke, Zhi Ruizhen was the first to erupt, his face turning fierce as he declared, "Since you wish to court death, I shall send you to your demise now."
Upon saying this, Zhi Ruizhen's entire body erupted with an extremely powerful cultivation, stunning the entire audience into silence. No one dared to speak.
Zhi Ruizhen was a late-stage Saint Venerable expert. His anger could lead to a million corpses.
Everyone averted their gaze from Zhi Ruizhen, fearing they might be crushed to death by his residual might.
"Deputy City Lord, as long as you spare them, you can do whatever you wish with me."
Gongyu Jinghan became anxious and scared.
She had long since disregarded her own life, but she did not want her current situation to bring harm to Li Yurou.
Now that Li Yurou had stepped forward to stand with her, she was deeply moved, but this was not what she wanted.
"It's too late. This person is a spy, and he must die today. I need to give an explanation to everyone on the island."
Zhi Ruizhen pointed at Xia Feng, his expression fixed on killing him.
Zhi Ruizhen, as the Deputy City Lord of Gu Ji Island, had the obligation to maintain the safety of everyone on the island.
Xia Feng and his group looked unfamiliar, clearly not from the island, so they had to be killed.
Actually, this was secondary. The primary reason was that Xia Feng was accompanied by several stunning beauties, and who wouldn't want to possess more?
He didn't care about Li Yurou; she was already marked by his elder brother, Xing Yongnian.
But there were still four others left. These four were all on par with each other, and one in particular stood out, her aura entirely different.
As a lecherous and wicked spirit, Zhi Ruizhen, with such beauties delivered to his doorstep, would be a disservice to his cultivation if he remained unmoved.
"Deputy Island Lord, we support you in killing him."
"Deputy Island Lord, they are outsiders. I saw them at the entrance earlier."
"Yes, they must be spies from outside."
Everyone began to speak, concocting charges against Xia Feng.
Speaking up at this moment would allow them to gain favor with Zhi Ruizhen, a form of indirect submission.
Seeing everyone's support, Zhi Ruizhen's face broke into a smile.
It was as if he already saw Xia Feng as a corpse.
"Deputy City Lord, I turned these people away at the door earlier. They must have snuck in."
At this moment, Gongyu Niu also began to speak in support of Zhi Ruizhen, his 'son-in-law.'
"Oh, it seems our suspicions were correct. This is indeed a spy. Today, in front of everyone, I will slowly torment this spy to death."
After speaking, Zhi Ruizhen no longer wasted time and launched a fierce attack towards Xia Feng.
Zhi Ruizhen, like a great eagle, swooped down towards Xia Feng.
Gongyu Jinghan had already closed her eyes, unwilling to witness what was about to happen. There was no need to guess; Xia Feng was undoubtedly doomed.
This was a late-stage Saint Venerable expert.
Xia Feng looked at Zhi Ruizhen charging at him and calmly said, "Did an ant dare to contend with the bright moon? Then I shall send you on your way."
Xia Feng then casually raised his hand and waved it at Zhi Ruizhen.
*Pfft...*
