Chapter 240: Tang San's Choice, Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen Arrive!
"Boom!"
As the officiant announced the start of the wedding, countless firecrackers and fireworks went off, and the thousands of attendees erupted in applause, welcoming the three soon-to-be-married individuals.
Seated at the front were distinguished guests such as the leaders of the Upper Three Sects and the Lower Four Sects, as well as the emperors and princes of the two great empires. They all stood up and turned their attention to Tang San and his brides, Ning Rongrong and Yu Qingrou, who were walking toward them.
When the three reached the main stage, they separated and took their positions.
Tang San stood with the officiant, while Ning Rongrong and Yu Qingrou stood on the other side.
After the vows were exchanged, it was time for the final part of the ceremony: announcing the positions of primary wife and secondary wife.
According to the rules of the Clear Sky Clan, only the primary wife had the right to receive the unique token of the Clear Sky Clan leader from Tang San.
Although everyone present already knew that Ning Rongrong was to be the primary wife, they eagerly anticipated this moment!
After all, in all these years, none had seen the wedding of the Clear Sky Clan's heir, so naturally, all eyes were glued to the stage.
From his seat, Emperor Xue Ye looked at the couple with a smile on his pale face. "Truly, the empire continues to produce talents. The Clear Sky Clan is fortunate to have such a gifted individual."
"It's a pity that our royal family doesn't have a girl who caught Tang San's eye."
The emperor of the Star Luo Empire nodded in agreement.
The Clear Sky Clan had close ties with the Star Luo Empire, but now, they weren't marrying someone from his empire. If word got out, it might suggest a weakening of their relationship.
"After this wedding, it's necessary to discuss with the Clear Sky Clan and attempt to marry one of our princesses to them," the emperor of the Star Luo Empire thought.
On another side.
Ning Fengzhi watched the three on stage, barely able to contain his smile.
After today, his daughter would become the wife of the Sea God's heir and the primary wife at that!
When their alliance eventually overthrew the Spirit Hall, the strongest sects on the continent would undoubtedly be the Clear Sky Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
With the Sea God as their backing, who would dare provoke them?
Yu Yuanzhen, standing nearby, noticed Ning Fengzhi's barely concealed joy and snorted internally.
Such a shame, one misstep after another.
Still, his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had established a connection with Tang San.
In the future, once they rescued his worthless son, this relationship could benefit the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
As for the elders of the Clear Sky Clan, they silently observed the proceedings on stage.
"Now, let's invite our groom to hand the Clear Sky Clan token to his wife!" the officiant announced as an attendant brought up a tray.
The tray was lined with red velvet, atop which lay a black token with a metallic sheen, engraved with a small hammer identical to the Clear Sky Hammer.
"This is the token of the Clear Sky Clan leader's wife!"
"Legend has it that this token is made of meteorite iron, impervious to fire and water, and even a Soul Douluo cannot leave a scratch on it!"
"Just the material alone is worth millions of gold soul coins, not to mention the added soul power of several generations of Clear Sky Clan leaders!"
"A priceless treasure!"
Many knowledgeable attendees recognized the seemingly simple yet intricately designed token's value.
Even Tang San was delighted with the token.
If it weren't a long-standing heirloom of the Clear Sky Clan, he might have considered reforging it into a hidden weapon.
Ning Fengzhi's eyes burned with desire as he saw the token, reflecting his appreciation for valuable treasures as the possessor of the most powerful gem-type martial spirit.
Similarly, standing beside Ning Rongrong, Yu Qingrou from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had her eyes on the token.
As a non-direct descendant, Yu Qingrou naturally craved recognition.
Unfortunately, her talent was average, and besides her looks, she had no standout qualities.
Thus, she was initially reluctant when she learned she was to be married to Tang San, especially upon hearing he was unattractive.
However, now that she knew Tang San had the potential to become a god, she cast aside all her previous dissatisfaction.
Now, she desired nothing more than the status of Tang San's primary wife!
With this status, even if her talent was lacking and she wasn't a direct descendant, the clan leader would still have to show her respect.
Because she would be the wife of the Sea God!
"The token might not come to me today, but I must bear his child soon, preferably a son, to secure my position in the Clear Sky Clan."
"As for affection, with this girl's attitude, she's no match for me," Yu Qingrou thought, glancing at Ning Rongrong.
Having spent enough time with Ning Rongrong in the academy, Yu Qingrou saw her as a spoiled brat. She was confident that if Ning Rongrong didn't curb her temperament after joining the Clear Sky Clan, she would eventually fall out of favor despite her status as the primary wife.
Then, Yu Qingrou could seize the power of the primary wife from her.
"Too bad the token won't be handed to me in front of everyone. What a pity…" Yu Qingrou was confident she could snatch the token from Ning Rongrong in private.
But… she preferred to receive the token in front of everyone.
"What a waste for the Clear Sky Clan to use such a valuable item as a token," Su Yun thought, estimating the token's value.
"If you want good items, you can go to our Worship Hall and ask my grandfather. He might have some ancient treasures," Qian Renxue whispered to Su Yun.
"Hehe." Su Yun glanced at a particular spot in the sky. "Better not, or I might have to take someone along with the treasure."
Qian Renxue glared at him and stopped talking.
Su Yun turned his attention back to the stage.
Taking the token from the attendant, Tang San approached Ning Rongrong and Yu Qingrou.
At that moment, all eyes were on Tang San.
When he stopped in front of the two women, he finally came to a halt.
The next second, he handed the token forward.
However, the person receiving the token was not Ning Rongrong!
It was… Yu Qingrou!
In an instant, the countless eyes previously fixed on Ning Rongrong shifted to Yu Qingrou!
"What's going on? Isn't Ning Rongrong the primary wife? Why did Tang San give the token to Yu Qingrou of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"
"Who knows? Could it be that Tang San and Yu Qingrou are truly in love?"
"Hard to say. In sect marriages, true love is rare. But it does show that Tang San has no feelings for Ning Rongrong; otherwise, he wouldn't have handed the token to Yu Qingrou in front of everyone."
The crowd, initially there for the spectacle, now had a real spectacle to watch.
They had expected a normal wedding, but Tang San's small action shocked everyone.
At that moment, Ning Rongrong, standing not far from Yu Qingrou, was also stunned.
She indeed didn't like Tang San and only agreed to marry him under sect pressure.
But she hadn't expected Tang San to humiliate her like this, giving the token symbolizing the Clear Sky Clan matriarch to Yu Qingrou in front of everyone!
Was he insulting her?
Ning Rongrong might be spoiled, but she wasn't stupid.
She immediately thought of how her father had broken off the engagement after Tang San's father died, only to hastily arrange another marriage later.
Ning Rongrong guessed that Tang San had planned to humiliate the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ever since then!
Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong clenched her fists.
At the same time, Yu Qingrou was also stunned.
She didn't understand Tang San's intention.
What was happening?
Yu Qingrou glanced at her grandfather, Yu Yuanzhen, in the audience, but he too looked baffled.
Meanwhile, the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan were equally stunned!
Especially Ning Fengzhi!
Seeing Tang San hand the token symbolizing the Clear Sky Clan matriarch to Yu Qingrou instead of his daughter, he was shocked!
What was happening?!
In a flash, Ning Fengzhi recalled what he had done to Tang San in the past.
This brat had been holding a grudge all this time!
Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered, realizing that Tang San was deliberately mocking him!
Damn brat!
Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo were first taken aback, then quickly understood everything.
They immediately looked at the Clear Sky Clan members.
But they remained calm.
"Clan Leader! Tang San and the Clear Sky Clan are insulting us like this, we should…" The two Title Douluo, never having been so humiliated, were ready to act.
However, Ning Fengzhi shook his head. "With Tang Chen back, what can we do?"
"Now, the Clear Sky Clan is undoubtedly the top sect in the world, even rivaling the Spirit Hall."
"Today, Tang San is making a statement, showing us who's in charge. What can you do about it?"
Ning Fengzhi glared at Tang San, saying, "That kid… I wasn't wrong about him. He's a real character…"
"What do we do now? It's one thing for us to lose face, but what about Rongrong…" Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were still concerned about Ning Rongrong. They couldn't believe their little princess could endure this.
However, to their surprise, just as Yu Qingrou accepted the token under Tang San's urging, Ning Rongrong, whom they expected to explode in anger, stood quietly without any sign of distress.
It was highly unusual!
"Tang San truly surprised me by doing this," Qian Renxue remarked, observing the trio on stage.
Su Yun smiled faintly. "Who cares? It has nothing to do with us anyway."
He focused on Ning Rongrong. "It's a pity. The person who usually loses her temper most easily is surprisingly calm today, which is unexpected."
"Indeed." Qian Renxue's eyes were also on Ning Rongrong. With her years of experience dealing with this little princess, she knew something was definitely off.
The spectators noticed Ning Rongrong's unexpected calmness and the lack of any outrage from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. They all felt a strange sensation.
But as bystanders, they could only gossip and then prepare to leave.
However, things wouldn't end so simply today.
"Swoosh!"
Just as the officiant was about to announce the end of the ceremony, a figure in plain clothes suddenly appeared on the stage. As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere of the entire venue turned somber.
"Tang San, I've come to see you."
The old man's appearance immediately sparked speculation among the thousands present about his identity.
Who was he?
How dare he appear so boldly at the wedding of the Upper Three Sects' alliance?
Tang San seemed to have anticipated this. He looked at the newcomer calmly and smiled. "I presume the senior is the Grand Worship of the Spirit Hall, Qian Daoliu."
As he spoke, Tang San even bowed to Qian Daoliu.
Based on the information from his great-grandfather, this seemingly ordinary old man was none other than Qian Daoliu, also known as the Invincible Sky Douluo, one of the continent's most powerful soul masters.
Qian Daoliu?!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The mention of this name caused an uproar among all the guests!
Those who came to attend Tang San's wedding came from all walks of life, from all over the Douluo Continent.
Many had heard of the top powerhouse within the Spirit Hall.
"It's actually Qian Daoliu?!"
"I've heard he's one of the strongest Title Douluos, just a step away from level 100 soul power!"
"Why is he here?"
"I've only heard that the Spirit Hall has been active recently, looking for something. Could it be that the item is with Tang San?"
Many guests whispered among themselves.
"Since you know who I am, I won't say much more."
Qian Daoliu looked at Tang San and said calmly, "Show your cards, or come with me today."
As soon as his words fell, before anyone could react, another overwhelming aura descended like a meteor!
"Qian Daoliu! Repeat what you just said if you dare!"
Boom!
A giant hammer pierced through the void, crashing down with a thunderous impact!
