At this moment, Wan Yunting was in the small pavilion of the small courtyard, drinking tea and chatting with Lu Xiaodie, Zheng Rong, and the master and disciple duo Zi Qing and Lan Xin. Chong Ling'er and Huo Fei, finding it uninteresting, had gone out to wander around the inner scenery of the Emei Sect, as they were not familiar with Wan Yunting.
"By the way, Senior Sister Zi Qing, you haven't told me why you were looking for me?"
Wan Yunting suddenly remembered that Lan Xin had mentioned earlier that they were going to the capital to find him, but he didn't know why.
"My master wants to spend some time with you!" Lan Xin said.
"Spend some time with me?"
Wan Yunting's expression was startled, and he looked at Zi Qing, who was sitting beside him with a blank expression, not understanding what she meant.
"Hehe, little brother, are you silly?"
Lu Xiaodie, sitting on his right, nudged Wan Yunting's right arm with her own, pointed at Zi Qing, and teased, "Isn't it obvious that she fancies you and wants to spend some time with you?"
Zi Qing, who was lifting her teacup, paused at her words, but her blank expression did not change in the slightest.
"Tsk, Sister Lu, what nonsense are you talking about."
Wan Yunting reacted and turned to glance at Lu Xiaodie, who was enjoying the show, but he quickly understood why Zi Qing was looking for him. It was undoubtedly for the Great Dao Swordplay!
After all, this was a sword technique inheritance left by the Sword Dao Ancestor of the Wudang Sect. It belonged to the Wudang Sect's martial arts, yet it was learned by an outsider like Wan Yunting.
The intention of Zi Qing's master, Sect Leader Zhong, was naturally to have Zi Qing follow Wan Yunting so that she could learn the Great Dao Swordplay, which would also be for their Wudang Sect!
At this moment, his pocket phone rang. Wan Yunting took it out and saw it was Wang Dajin, the president of the local Traditional Chinese Medicine Association: "Chairman Wan, the results are out, showing that they have a mother-son blood relationship!"
Hearing this expected result, Wan Yunting was very happy and said with a smile, "Good, thank you, President Wang, for sending the identification documents up the mountain."
"Okay, Chairman Wan, I'll send them up now..."
After they hung up, Lu Xiaodie asked Zheng Rong, "How was it? What were the results?"
Wan Yunting nodded at them and smiled, "Yes, they are mother and son!"
Lu Xiaodie and Zheng Rong were immediately surprised. They also knew that Wan Yunting had sent the heads of Abbess Jun Xuan and Lin Xiaobao down the mountain at noon for a paternity test, wanting to check if they were truly mother and son.
"What mother and son?"
Lan Xin asked with a curious expression, while Zi Qing remained indifferent, as if it didn't concern her.
Lu Xiaodie waved her hand at Zi Qing and eagerly asked Wan Yunting, "Little brother, what do we do now? How do we proceed?"
Wan Yunting smiled and said, "Of course, we negotiate with Abbess Jun Xuan!"
Lu Xiaodie's eyes narrowed, and a sly smile appeared on her lips. "Why don't you wait until tomorrow's wedding ceremony to expose that old woman's scheme?"
Wan Yunting smiled and waved his hand, "It's unnecessary. After all, the final outcome of this matter will have a huge impact on the Emei Sect!"
"If what you said is true, and I wait until tomorrow's wedding ceremony to expose Abbess Jun Xuan's having a private son in front of everyone from various sects, it will only push things to a dead end with no room for recovery! This is not the final desired outcome for me or for the entire Emei Sect."
"Therefore, I can only talk to Abbess Jun Xuan privately. If she is willing to cancel this wedding and allow Ruoxi to successfully succeed as the Emei Sect Leader, that would be best. If she insists on refusing, then I can only go all out!"
Zheng Rong felt that Wan Yunting's solution was acceptable after hearing his explanation.
"Tch."
But Lu Xiaodie glanced at him disdainfully and smiled, "You say all this so nicely, but you're just concerned about Zhou Ruoxi, right?"
Wan Yunting, whose mind was read, chuckled. Of course, Zhou Ruoxi was his top priority. If it really came to a scene at her wedding with Lin Xiaobao tomorrow, it would not only affect Zhou Ruoxi but also make it difficult for her to face everyone in the future.
"Let's go, we'll go pick up President Wang for the test results, and then go find Abbess Jun Xuan."
Without further ado, Wan Yunting got up and went out with Lu Xiaodie and Zheng Rong. Zi Qing stood up and followed. Lan Xin kept asking what was going on along the way, and Wan Yunting briefly explained it to the master and disciple duo, but knowing that Zi Qing didn't care about these matters, he was too lazy to explain clearly...
At 4:40 PM, Wan Yunting met a middle-aged man at the entrance of a large hall in the outer sect of the Emei Sect. His name was Wang Dajin, the president of the Leshan City Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. He personally handed the paternity test results of Abbess Jun Xuan and Lin Xiaobao to Wan Yunting. After a few polite exchanges, they saw President Wang off the mountain.
Returning to the inner sect of the Emei Sect, at a large hall square, disciples busy preparing for tomorrow's banquet were moving tables and chairs to set them up. Red festive decorations were hung on the main beams of the hall, and the windows were also pasted with "囍" characters. A lively atmosphere filled the entire Emei Sect.
At this moment, Abbess Jun Xuan, as the acting Sect Leader, was sitting in the main seat of the hall. However, she was not sitting directly on the Sect Leader's throne but on a chair next to it. Below her, on both sides, sat the Sect Leaders, leaders, or elders from the various sects invited this time, a total of about thirty people chatting in the hall.
The topic naturally revolved around the future development of the martial arts world. For example, in a while, the martial arts convention would be held, and the chairman of the Martial Arts Association was Sect Leader Zhong Yulong of the Wudang Sect.
Elder Zuo Qi, representing the Wudang Sect at the wedding, along with the Sect Leader's eldest disciple, Xian Yun, were also seated in the hall, discussing matters of the martial arts convention with other sect leaders.
As the acting Sect Leader, Abbess Jun Xuan was currently radiant with glory. Sitting with all the sect leaders present to discuss important martial arts matters made her feel indescribably excited and immensely satisfied.
She tilted her head slightly to look at the Sect Leader's throne chair of the Emei Sect beside her. Her heart filled with excitement as she thought that after tomorrow, she would be able to rightfully sit on this Sect Leader's throne.
"Master Wan has arrived!"
Tan Song, the sect leader of the Mount Tai Sect, sitting in the last chair on the left side of the hall, saw Wan Yunting walk in with Lu Xiaodie and Zheng Rong. The sect leaders present greeted him, "Master Wan, you've arrived just in time. We were waiting for you."
"Come, Master Wan, sit over here with me."
Sect Leader Liu Bing of the Qingcheng Sect stood up and offered his chair, not caring about the gazes of others, trying to curry favor with Wan Yunting.
"Thank you, Sect Leader Liu. I won't sit."
Wan Yunting clasped his fists and smiled politely at Liu Bing, then his gaze turned to Abbess Jun Xuan, who was sitting in the main seat. He said with a smile, "I'm here to speak with Abbess Jun Xuan about something. I didn't expect all the sect leaders and elders to be here."
"Oh, Master Wan has something to say?"
Liu Bing sat down again, hearing Wan Yunting's words, it seemed like something important was about to happen!
This made everyone present look at each other, secretly guessing what Wan Yunting wanted to do!
After all, since they arrived at the Emei Sect, they had heard rumors about Wan Yunting causing a scene at the wedding and his special relationship with the Emei Sect's soon-to-be Sect Leader Zhou Ruoxi, which had spread like wildfire, and many people believed it.
Seeing Wan Yunting arrive at this hall and openly approach Abbess Jun Xuan!
For a moment, the sect leaders of various sects present guessed that Wan Yunting couldn't wait and was going to cause trouble now?
Abbess Jun Xuan, sitting in the main seat, narrowed her old eyes and looked directly at Wan Yunting, saying with a smile, "May I ask what Master Wan wishes to discuss with me?"
Wan Yunting looked at her and smiled, "Abbess Jun Xuan, why don't we speak privately!"
This made the sect leaders, leaders, and elders present exchange glances. They were now certain that Wan Yunting was finding Abbess Jun Xuan now for the wedding of the Emei Sect's soon-to-be Sect Leader Zhou Ruoxi and Lin Xiaobao, the son of Heavenly Master Lin of Longhu Mountain!
Abbess Jun Xuan's old face did not show much emotion, but inwardly she was pleased. She guessed that Wan Yunting was causing trouble in advance to snatch the bride, so she said loudly, "Master Wan, whatever it is, you can say it here. The sect leaders, leaders, and elders present are not outsiders, so there is no need to hide anything. Speak boldly, and if you encounter any difficulties, perhaps we can all offer some suggestions. Don't you think so?"
At her words, everyone present turned their heads, their gazes focused on Wan Yunting, who was standing in the middle of the hall. No one spoke. It seemed some were waiting for a good show, while others raised their eyebrows, wanting to dissuade Wan Yunting, but in such an occasion, it was not appropriate to do so...
"Since Abbess Jun Xuan says so, then I will speak in front of everyone."
Wan Yunting nodded with a smile, looked up at Abbess Jun Xuan sitting in the main seat, and said with a gentle smile, "I request Abbess Jun Xuan to cancel this wedding!"
At these words, everyone present froze for a moment, thinking to themselves, "As expected!"
For a moment, a brief silence fell over the scene. Abbess Jun Xuan, sitting above, also stared at Wan Yunting with her old eyes. After a long while, she finally smiled and said, "Master Wan, what do you mean by this?"
Wan Yunting looked at her and smiled, "Abbess Jun Xuan, I've always been straightforward in my words and actions, so I tend to offend people easily. But I know you must understand what I mean by this, so there's no need for me to explain too clearly. After all, Abbess Jun Xuan probably knows about those rumors outside better than I do!"
This last sentence exposed that the rumors about Wan Yunting wanting to cause a scene at the wedding and snatch the bride were deliberately spread by Abbess Jun Xuan!
This made the sect leaders, leaders, and elders present look surprised, they exchanged glances and began to whisper amongst themselves.
"Hehe..."
Abbess Jun Xuan stood up and walked down, appearing calm and composed. Her old eyes looked directly at Wan Yunting and she said with a smile, "So, Master Wan is asking me to cancel this wedding for our Emei Sect's soon-to-be Sect Leader Zhou Ruoxi?"
"Naturally, it's for her!"
Wan Yunting looked directly at her and admitted with an unconcealed smile.
Abbess Jun Xuan stopped about a meter away from Wan Yunting, her old eyes looking at him, she smiled and said, "Then is Master Wan going to snatch the bride now?"
"No!"
Wan Yunting shook his head with a smile.
Abbess Jun Xuan raised her old eyebrows, and everyone present also looked at him with confusion. Wan Yunting had asked Abbess Jun Xuan to cancel the wedding, but it wasn't to snatch the bride, so why was it?
