Chapter 1828

Looking at the residence ahead, Zi Chen immersed himself in his memories, recalling the times they spent together.

At this moment, Tyrant and Dong Qing were not idling around. Instead, they were circling around the mansion, sizing it up and investigating it.

Obviously, it would be best if they could take Su Mengyao away, as it would save them a lot of trouble.

A moment later, the two returned and shook their heads in disappointment. Tyrant said, "This place is full of forbidding auras. There might be experts hiding in the dark. It's impossible to take Su Mengyao away."

It was not that the possibility was low, but that it did not exist at all. It meant there was no hope.

Zi Chen's expression returned to normal. He became calm and wise once again. He said calmly, "Then we can only wait."

At the same time, Longhu suddenly opened his eyes. He immediately sensed a familiar aura, but it only lasted for a brief moment, as if it was just an illusion.

He shook his head and closed his eyes again.

His senses were only limited to the residence, as his senses were blocked from the outside world. The familiar feeling was only an illusion.

However, he soon opened his eyes again with a cold flicker. He snapped, "Piss off, who asked you to come?"

The person who came was naturally Ximen Dong. At this moment, there was no longer anger in his eyes as he looked at Longhu. There was also no fear in his eyes. Instead, there was disdain and complacency. He said, "Longhu, Meng Yao and I will be married very soon. At that time, I will naturally be your master. Speaking to your master with such an attitude will make him very unhappy."

"You think you can be my master? Are you trying to die?" Longhu rose to his feet. The murderous aura around him surged once again.

Ximen Dong faintly smiled and said, "Don't be in a hurry to get angry. I am very clear about your matters. I know that you once had a master in the lower bound called Zi Chen, and Meng Yao was also very fond of him. However, what's the use of that? This is the Zhan Wu Continent, a place where geniuses gather. Not to mention that Zi Chen is just a person from the lower bound, even if he is a genius of this world, so what? Geniuses are built on the premise of resources.

Ximen Dong said proudly, "Let's take you and Mengyao as an example. If we didn't provide you with resources over the years, would you be able to achieve what you have now? I don't know that Zi Chen, but I believe he's just a clown. If he knew Mengyao's current fortune, not only would he not stop her, he would even give her his blessings. He might even choose to kneel before me like a dog, begging me to take him in and give him a chance."

Ximen Dong's words were full of pride. He didn't deliberately put on an act, as if he was narrating a very simple matter.

In fact, it was indeed so. Which of those old things from the lower realm didn't wag their tails in front of him like a dog? Unfortunately, they didn't have the talent to improve their strength despite the resources given to them.

Those old things praised Zi Chen to the skies, but so what?

In the Zhanwu Continent, even the high-level life forms came in waves. Here, without resources and without the support of a force, it was impossible for one person to grow.

Ximen Dong's words didn't anger Longhu. Longhu said coldly, "Ximen Dong, this kind of situation will only happen to you. In front of Zi Chen, you're not even worthy to carry his shoes. You should be glad that you didn't meet him. Otherwise, you would be killed by Zi Chen with a single finger."

"Pfft."

Ximen Dong chuckled disdainfully, "Longhu, I've already learned about your situation. You've only been in this world for a few hundred years. Do you think a person can compete against a force in a few hundred years? It's not that I'm glad that I didn't meet him, but he's glad that he didn't meet me. If we were to meet, for Mengyao's sake, if he were to kneel down and beg me like a dog, perhaps I would reward him with something. Otherwise, I'll teach him the reality of this world."

"The situation you mentioned will never happen. Leave now." Su Mengyao's voice came out from the room.

"Mengyao, what do you mean? We're going to be married soon. Can't we even see each other once?" Ximen Dong was startled and asked in a confused tone.

"We'll talk about it when the time comes. I don't want to see you now. By the way, remember your conditions."

"Alright, very well."

Ximen Dong flung his sleeves and left after being given the cold shoulder once again.

Ximen Dong's departure from the Su Mansion naturally caused an uproar. Now, he had undoubtedly become a celebrity in the Misty City.

Zi Chen, who was about to leave, turned around after hearing the commotion. He immediately saw the middle-aged Ximen Dong, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"If we kill him now, everything will be over."

Tyrant suddenly appeared beside Zi Chen and said, "It's just a Mysterious World. It's easy to kill him."

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "There's no need for that."

Let's not talk about whether he could kill Ximen Dong now. Even if he did, the other Supreme-Beings might have sons or nephews. Zi Chen wanted to destroy the marriage itself, not just Ximen Dong.

What's more, Ximen Dong wasn't alone. There were four people protecting him.

For Ximen Dong, this kind of protection was actually very helpless. Although he was the one in charge here, there were too many experts here. Among them, there was no lack of hot-tempered and impulsive existences. It would be troublesome if both sides started a fight without saying a word.

Moreover, as he walked through the crowd, there were many people with malicious looks in their eyes.

"Hmph."

Ximen Dong's gaze swept across the crowd. He snorted in disdain and headed toward Misty City.

He almost brushed past Zi Chen. During this time, Ximen Dong even glanced at Zi Chen. However, Zi Chen's strength in the Empty Realm was directly ignored by him.

"What should we do now?"

"Wait."

…

…

At the same time, the Devil Ape, who had finished dealing with trivial matters, came to the Misty City.

Then, he heard the rumors of the marriage alliance.

"Yes, marriage alliance."

The crimson eyes of the Devil Ape flashed with an evil red light. After a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, he stepped onto the teleportation array that led to Misty City.

During this time, the Devil Ape, who didn't deliberately cultivate, had already stepped into the Empty Realm. His current realm was close to that of the Mysterious World.

As for the speed of his growth, even the Devil Ape himself was surprised.

Arriving at Misty City, the Devil Ape found an inn to stay in and waited.

He didn't deliberately look for Zi Chen because he wasn't sure if Zi Chen would make it in time.

As time passed, more and more people went to the Su Manor every day. Among them, there were many beautiful women who brought all kinds of clothes for Su Mengyao to choose from.

"No need to choose. I'll take this." Su Mengyao casually picked up a white dress, which was what she usually wore.

"How can this do? A bride should dress up beautifully."

"No need. It's actually just a deal." A look of determination flashed in Su Mengyao's eyes.

It was indeed a deal, but one side only traded cultivation methods, while Su Mengyao had to put her life on the line. Rather than a deal, it was more like a gamble.

As the time of the wedding approached, Su Mengyao divined again and again, but the heavens seemed to be blinded. She couldn't get rid of the fog and see the real scene.

Now, she could only gamble.

Time … Perhaps there was still time.

Su Mengyao closed her eyes, and a figure appeared in her mind again. She had waited for this figure for hundreds of years, but he never appeared.

Su Mengyao wasn't disappointed. As she said, as long as she got the cultivation method, there was still time, and there was still hope.

The wedding was imminent, and experts from all walks of life came.

Just the powerful supreme figures alone, there were five. Obviously, they gave enough face to Ximen Lu of Misty City.

However, among the five Supreme-Beings, four of them were invited, while one of them came uninvited.

It was a middle-aged man, but his sharpness was exposed, like an unsheathed blade, making people unable to look at him directly.

Ximen Lu specially received the five supreme figures. After seeing the middle-aged man, he was slightly startled and said, "May I know who this supreme is?"

"He's La Meng. This time, he heard that your son is getting married, so he came to congratulate you." The supreme named Jin Lei said.

"Thank you, thank you. I'm Ximen Lu." Ximen Lu cupped his fists.

"Ximen Supreme, this time, other than congratulating you, there's actually something I want to discuss with you all." La Meng said.

"Oh, what is it?" Ximen Lu's face was filled with curiosity, but the other supreme figures were relatively calm.

"Ximen Supreme, you should be familiar with the Seventh Mainland's supreme mountain, right?"

"Mount Supreme." Ximen Lu was slightly startled, and his expression began to change.

After a while, he said, "Mount Supreme is a unique wonder of the Seventh Mainland, so of course I know where it is. However, every time it is opened, it requires six keys, and each key can bring six people in. Not a single key can be missing."

La Meng faintly smiled and said, "If I'm not wrong, Ximen should have a key on him."

This wasn't a secret among the supreme figures. Hearing this, Ximen Lu's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "That means brother La has a sixth key on him."

La Meng nodded and said, "That's right. I originally came here to discuss going to Mount Supreme, but I didn't expect to run into your son's wedding. How about we set off after the wedding?"

As he spoke, La Meng took out a shining token. The token was surging with a mysterious aura.

"It has the same aura as the other keys. That's right."

A smile appeared on Ximen Lu's face as he took out the same key.

At the same time, the other four supreme figures took out their keys as well.

The two keys gathered together and formed a picture. On the picture, a majestic mountain was carved. It was clearly Mount Supreme.

La Meng smiled and took his key. The others also took their own keys.

They had been supreme for many years, and it was very difficult for them to take another step and become immortal.

As for Mount Supreme, it was an opportunity.

After the six supreme figures finished their discussion, they waited for the wedding to end. However, no one noticed the mysterious smile that flashed across La Meng's face.

Time passed, and the day of the wedding arrived. All the cultivators gathered in Misty City.
