As Han Tian announced the wedding date, a flying Xuan beast was speeding towards Hantian City.
Five people stood on the Xuan beast, one of whom was Han Xiang's fourth uncle.
At this moment, Fourth Uncle Han stood respectfully behind a young man.
Besides him, two elders followed closely.
These two elders stood proudly, exuding the aura of the Xuan Realm.
As for the young man, he was only at the Spirit Venerable Realm.
Although the young man's cultivation level was not high, his status was nobler than that of the two Xuan Realm experts.
Besides these four, the last person was Han Xianxin.
At this moment, Han Xianxin stood by the young man like a maid.
Just a few days ago, she had been forcefully taken by this young man and had become his woman.
"Young Master Xiao, our Han family is willing to become a vassal of the Xiao family. We implore Young Master Xiao to give us an opportunity," Fourth Uncle Han asked respectfully.
Young Master Xiao held a folding fan, looking like a dashing young master.
A sinister smile curved his lips as he said, "Originally, you would have been qualified. But now you don't even have a Xuan Realm martial artist. You are too weak."
"This..."
Before Fourth Uncle Han could finish his sentence, Young Master Xiao interrupted him and continued, "Of course, there isn't no other way!"
"Please, Young Master Xiao, enlighten us!" Fourth Uncle Han asked urgently.
"Find me five women of such beauty. As long as I am pleased, your Han family can become a vassal of our Xiao family," Young Master Xiao said, raising his hand to pinch Han Xianxin's chin with a smile.
At this moment, Han Xianxin's expression was blank. She was already in despair.
Although she was willing to accept a political marriage, she could not accept being possessed by such a psychologically twisted man.
In Young Master Xiao's eyes, she was merely a tool for amusement.
Once Young Master Xiao grew tired of her, she would be discarded like trash.
She was furious, but she had no right to resist Young Master Xiao.
Hearing this, Fourth Uncle Han fell silent.
It wasn't difficult to find beautiful women, but should he really do this?
He knew very well that once he started, he would have to continuously provide "playthings" for Young Master Xiao.
By becoming a vassal of the Xiao family in this manner, where would the Han family's reputation go?
Seeing Fourth Uncle Han's silence, Young Master Xiao said coldly, "What? You are unwilling?"
Seeing Young Master Xiao's expression turn cold, Fourth Uncle Han quickly said, "Willing. It is the honor of my Han family to serve Young Master Xiao."
If Fourth Uncle Han refused, he would become a corpse in the next moment.
At this moment, he no longer had the right to refuse.
"You are very good. Help me do things well, and I won't treat you unfairly," Young Master Xiao sneered.
Fourth Uncle Han forced a stiff smile.
While Young Master Xiao and his group were traveling, Hantian City was preparing for Qin Hanchu's wedding.
Festive red lanterns hung on every street.
The entire Hantian City seemed to be adorned with red dowry.
At this moment, Lan Yan and Hong Luan were walking on the street.
Hong Luan looked at the red lanterns all over the street and said with a smile, "This is my first time attending a martial artist's wedding. It looks so festive."
Lan Yan's eyes held a hint of longing and envy. She nodded without saying much.
A moment later, they entered the City Lord's Mansion.
As good friends of Qin Hanchu, they were both invited by Qin Hanchu to be bridesmaids for Ah Xiang.
After meeting, the four greeted each other. Qin Hanchu said, "Your formal gowns are ready. Shall you try them on?"
"Okay, this is my first time wearing a bridesmaid dress," Hong Luan said excitedly.
Lan Yan still did not speak, only nodding.
Seeing Lan Yan like this, Hong Luan smiled and said, "You are here as a bridesmaid, don't always wear a poker face. Can you show a festive smile?"
"It's alright, just be yourself," Qin Hanchu said.
"Hanchu is right," Ah Xiang said.
"No, I have to teach her how to smile."
"Otherwise, others might think she's going to steal the groom in the next second."
Hong Luan joked.
Lan Yan glared at Hong Luan, then took the bridesmaid dress and said, "Let's go change."
Entering the room, the two changed into pale pink bridesmaid dresses.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Lan Yan was somewhat lost in thought.
This was the first time she had worn anything other than white.
"I didn't expect you to look quite good in pink clothes."
Just as Lan Yan was lost in thought, Hong Luan walked over.
In the past, Hong Luan always liked to wear red, appearing very fiery.
Now, wearing pink, she had an added touch of playfulness.
Reflected by the pink dress, even with Lan Yan's stern face, she didn't appear cold.
Qin Hanchu and Ah Xiang were chatting when Lan Yan and Hong Luan walked out together.
Ah Xiang exclaimed with a smile, "You two look so beautiful in these gowns. I feel like my spotlight will be stolen by you two."
Hong Luan said, "You will be the most beautiful in the wedding gown."
"I think so too," Qin Hanchu said.
Hearing Qin Hanchu's words, Ah Xiang's face was filled with happiness. "As long as you think I'm the most beautiful, that's all that matters."
Several days later, a grand banquet was held in the plaza of Hantian City.
All those who were qualified to enter the plaza were experts of the Spirit God Realm from various major forces.
"This is definitely the most sensational wedding in our world."
"Forces from the entire main continent have sent Spirit God Realm experts. This wedding will be known throughout every corner of the main continent."
"Hantian City is now the strongest force on the main continent, without a doubt. If they don't come, wouldn't that be disrespectful to Hantian City?"
"Exactly. Now, you can provoke anyone but Hantian City."
The wedding had not yet begun, but these Spirit God Realm experts were already seated in the plaza, chatting.
Outside the plaza, there were dense crowds of martial artists who had come to watch the excitement.
Everyone was discussing today's wedding, and the city was bustling with noise.
Unknowingly, it was nearing noon.
At this moment, celebratory drumbeats echoed through the city.
As the drumbeats sounded, everyone fell silent.
The drums boomed, and a golden rainbow bridge once again extended from the City Lord's Mansion.
Immediately after, the Han Tian couple, dressed in solemn purple robes, walked forward.
Behind them were two columns of golden armored warriors.
Every so often, two golden armored warriors stood on either side of the rainbow bridge.
Under the gaze of all, the Han Tian couple arrived between their statues.
"Today is the wedding of my daughter Ah Xiang and Hanchu. Thank you, fellow Daoists, for gracing us with your presence!"
"Here, I promise that Hantian City will never bully others or seize your territories for its own use."
"Hantian City will remain neutral as always."
Han Tian stood in the air, smiling and speaking.
"That's great!"
"Hantian City is not expanding its influence?"
The experts present feared that Hantian City would use its great power to annex their forces.
Han Tian's promise was like a reassurance to them.
"The City Lord's magnanimity is truly admirable."
"If Hantian City has any needs, I, the Twin Extremes Ancestor, am willing to serve."
The Twin Extremes Ancestor was the first to stand up and say.
"We are also willing!"
Although Han Tian had said he wouldn't seize other people's territory, these people still had to show their loyalty.
