Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 670: Chapter 670 Doubts
 

The grand residence of the Xia Family.

High-level members of major powers, who were suddenly invited, had already arrived at the Xia Family’s estate.

What puzzled them was why the Xia Family didn’t inform them earlier about the eldest son’s wedding? Why were they notified only on the wedding day?

Even more puzzling was that even though the Xia Family’s young master was getting married, there was no festive atmosphere at all. There was no sign of joy, not a single piece of red cloth to be seen, only the hastily proceeding banquet.

Since major powers were invited, the banquet could not be too casual, lest they feel insulted by the Xia Family, right?

The Xia Family’s estate was not as lively as they imagined, and the faces of Family Head Xia and Madam Xia bore few smiles.

Looking at Young Master Xia Yun, his face was obviously very ugly.

Although Family Head Xia and the senior members were warmly hosting, the high-level members of the major powers could see something was off just at a glance.

What exactly was going on?

The guests were quietly puzzled, but it wasn’t proper to ask, so they could only whisper among themselves in private.

Among the invited major powers, the Xia Family had also invited the Bai Family and the Ni Family, but they were nowhere to be seen, which puzzled the Xia Family’s high-level members.

“Family Head, perhaps something has delayed the Bai and Ni families, there’s no need to rush,” the eldest elder said softly.

“Let Yun’er go down first, don’t embarrass me here!” Family Head Xia said with a stern face, speaking quietly as he cast a harsh glance at Xia Yun.

Upon hearing this, Madam Xia sighed softly and then took Xia Yun downstairs.

Xia Yun had intended to go greet the bride himself but was forcibly stopped by Family Head Xia, which was why his face looked so unsightly.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I am really sorry. My son’s marriage was quite sudden, so we did not invite many people,” Family Head Xia said with a slightly polite smile, without revealing the reason for the haste.

“Family Head Xia, may I ask who is Young Master Xia Yun marrying?” an elderly man asked out of curiosity.

Hearing this, Family Head Xia’s face suddenly turned somewhat unsightly, and then he said with slight embarrassment, “Ah, I’m not afraid of your laughter, it is a young lady from a small family in Luan Tian City, Yunzhou, her name is Liumeier.”

“Yunzhou’s Luan Tian City?”

“A small family? How could that be worthy of Young Master Xia Yun?”

“With Young Master Xia Yun’s status, he should at least marry someone of equal standing, right?”

Hearing it was a small family, the high-level members of the major powers became agitated, clearly looking down upon small families.

What was the status of the Xia Family? Marrying a daughter from a small family, wasn’t that a disgrace to the Xia Family?

Only now did the guests understand why Family Head Xia and Madam Xia had such unsightly expressions—it was because Xia Yun was to marry a daughter from a small family.

Hearing the guests’ reactions, Family Head Xia shook his head helplessly and said, “Ah, my son insisted on marrying Liumeier. I couldn’t stop him, it really was out of my hands.”

The Xia Family held a very high status, and marrying a daughter from a small family did not match their standing, inevitably subjecting them to ridicule.

The high-level members of the major powers shook their heads one after another.

“Family Head, representatives from the Ye Family, Bai Family, and Ni Family are on their way to our Xia Family!” an elder reported as he entered the hall at that time.

“The Great General? And the heads of the Bai and Ni families!” the high-level members of the major powers exclaimed with joy upon hearing the news.

“Family Head Xia, let us go together to welcome the Great General,” one person said with a happy smile.

Family Head Xia nodded and took the lead out of the hall, followed by everyone else, all eager to welcome the Great General of the Empire.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Above the Imperial Capital, more than a dozen figures flew in swiftly, their formidable auras drawing the attention of everyone in the capital.

“The Great General!” Throughout the Imperial Capital, many cultivators raised their voices to shout, their might shaking the heavens.

Today’s Ye Cangqiong, as the Great General of the Yanhuo Empire, had improved his cultivation to the Sixth Layer of the Tianyuan Realm, his strength immensely ferocious, with few rivals within the Empire.

“Welcome the Great General!” Inside the Xia Family, Family Head Xia and other high-level members of the major powers greeted with respectful excitement, all showing excited expressions.

Being able to invite the Great General of the Empire, the smile on Family Head Xia’s face was extraordinarily radiant.

In the Imperial Capital, besides the Bai Family and Ni Family, probably only the Xia Family had the qualifications to invite Ye Cangqiong.

High up in the sky, Ye Cangqiong and more than a dozen other powerhouses were already approaching the Xia residence.

However, just as Family Head Xia was basking in self-satisfaction, he suddenly realized that Ye Cangqiong and his company did not stop.

Ye Cangqiong merely glanced at Family Head Xia and the others before the group of more than a dozen people continued on, flying towards the great gates of the Imperial Capital!

At that moment, Family Head Xia was stunned, his face a picture of shock.

The upper echelons of the great powers were also stunned, watching Ye Cangqiong and his group with complete bemusement.

“What’s going on? Where are the Great General and his party going?”

“Why are the Great General and his party heading to the city gates? Weren’t they supposed to come to the Xia’s?”

“Seeing the solemn expressions of the Great General and his party, could it be that something serious has happened?”

The upper echelons of the great powers were all puzzled, none of them clear about what was happening.

The high-ranking members of the Xia Family were also baffled, as they had already sent out invitations, and Ye Cangqiong and his group were supposed to come to the Xia’s, yet they had passed by without stopping.

“Family Head, could it really be that something has happened?” the Great Elder asked solemnly, speculating that something significant had occurred in the Empire.

Family Head Xia’s brow was deeply furrowed, and he shook his head to indicate he didn’t know.

The appearance of Ye Cangqiong and other titans of the Empire drew the attention of many cultivators in the Imperial Capital, their faces filled with confusion, as none knew what was happening.

For a moment, the gates of the Imperial Capital fell into silence.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Not long after, a series of whooshing sounds traveled from the distant sky.

Several hundred figures flew in, carrying a hundred sedans, creating an extremely magnificent scene.

“Sky Shadow Cavalry and the Black Flag Army!”

“A royal sedan! Is someone from the royal family getting married? Is the Second Prince personally going to welcome the bride?”

“It must be a royal marriage; otherwise, why would they use so many royal sedans? No wonder the Great General and his men came to wait at the city gates!”

“Exactly who from the royal family is getting married? Why haven’t we heard anything about it?”

Seeing the several hundred figures fly in, the Imperial Capital instantly erupted, boiling with excitement.

“A royal getting married?” Family Head Xia’s face was full of astonishment.

“How is that possible, if someone from the royal family were getting married, why wouldn’t our Xia Family know?” Madame Xia also wore a face of disbelief.

The Xia Family held a very high status within the Empire, and they had certain connections with the royal family; if someone from the royal family was to marry, they would certainly invite the Xia Family.

But the Xia Family had not received any invitation yet!

As everyone was filled with doubt, the Sky Shadow Cavalry and soldiers of the Black Flag Army stopped outside the gates of the Imperial Capital, hovering above the city gate.

“Why have they stopped?” The people of the Imperial Capital were once again perplexed, exchanging glances with one another.

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

At that moment, more whooshing sounds came from the sky.

The newcomers were none other than Feng Wuchen and his group along with the high-ranking members of the Liumeier family.

“The Grand Commander!” Seeing the young man at the forefront, the people of the Imperial Capital exclaimed as they stared in amazement.

Feng Wuchen and his group had also stopped outside the city gates of the Imperial Capital.
