Chapter 1759: Dumb as a Wooden Chicken! 🐥

Published: February 26, 2025

Yuwen Divine King let out a sigh of relief, feeling quite happy in his heart. In his view, since Jing Yun was dead, he had avenged his son Yuwen Shu, and as for Yuwen Shu's incapacitation, no one would report it.

With no worries behind him, the wedding between his son and Bai Xuanyi could proceed as planned. Yuwen Divine King, free from concerns, wore a smile that blossomed like a chrysanthemum, growing increasingly radiant.

At the same time, outside the Hall of Time and Space in the Supreme Military City, a divine general guarding the hall suddenly knelt down, saying, "I pay my respects to Celestial Master your excellency!"

"No need for formalities." Celestial Master Lingxia replied lightly and stepped out of the hall with Tan Yun and the other three.

"Thank you, Celestial Master your excellency." The divine general stood up and said, "I report to you that now the myriad divine kings and family heads are waiting for you in the Guest Hall. I will guide you."

"Mm." Celestial Master Lingxia responded and followed the divine general with Tan Yun and the others.

At this moment, Tan Yun transmitted a message to Li Shiyin, saying, "Shiyin, help me out. Just say you want to see the bride Bai Xuanyi; I have something important to discuss with her. Also, let this divine general lead the way."

"No problem." After transmitting the message, Li Shiyin smiled and said, "Mother, I want to go see Bai Xuanyi."

"Alright! Go ahead, but remember to head to the Guest Hall early." Celestial Master Lingxia smiled.

"Okay, Mother." After saying this, Li Shiyin looked at the divine general and said, "My mother will go to the Guest Hall herself; you take me to find Bai Xuanyi."

"Yes." The divine general respectfully accepted the order and led Li Shiyin towards the northern horizon.

"Brother, Jing Yun, Xuan Yuan Rou, you all come too." Li Shiyin smiled.

"Alright." Tan Yun and the other three responded and took to the air, following the divine general...

A moment later, the divine general led the four of them to land in mid-air on a lush and serene Divine Mountain.

Halfway up the mountain, amidst the mist of heaven and earth divine essence, a beautifully decorated pavilion could vaguely be seen: Xuanyi Pavilion.

The divine general landed outside the pavilion and respectfully said, "Miss, there are esteemed guests who wish to see you."

"Go away! I don’t want to see anyone!" A melodious voice filled with pain echoed from within the pavilion.

"Miss, it is Miss Li who has come." The divine general said.

"Are you deaf? I said I don't want to see anyone!" The scolding voice rang out again.

"Such arrogance." Li Shiyin frowned, seeming displeased.

At this moment, on the second floor of the pavilion, Bai Xuanyi, dressed in bridal attire, had tear stains all over her delicate face.

In her hand, she held a dagger, her heart crying, "Why did Father force me to marry Yuwen Shu without my consent... Why... why..."

"I don't want to marry him; I don't like him at all. Living my life with someone I don't like, I'd rather die!"

Bai Xuanyi trembled, pressing the dagger against her forehead. The sharp tip pierced her skin, and a trickle of crimson blood oozed from her brow.

At that moment, she suddenly smiled, memories surfacing of when she led an attack against Tan Yun but was captured by him.

She laughed while crying, muttering to herself, "How ridiculous, the one I think of before I die is him."

Just as she was about to plunge the dagger into her forehead, a familiar voice came from outside, "Junior Sister, it's your Senior Brother Jing Yun. I have something to discuss with you."

"Senior Brother!" Bai Xuanyi's hand paused, not piercing her forehead, "Senior Brother, you can come in."

Outside the pavilion, Li Shiyin and Li Shimin were momentarily stunned, not expecting that as soon as Tan Yun spoke, the closed-off Bai Xuanyi would agree to see him.

"Dear Brother Jing, aren't you and the Bai Family usually at odds? How could she agree to see you?" Li Shimin said, puzzled.

Tan Yun wrinkled his nose, "Cough, the Bai Family is the Bai Family, and Xuanyi is Xuanyi. Those are two different matters in my eyes."
