Chapter 391: You! Marry Me Now!

The White Crane Hall was situated on the top most peak of the Grand Eagle City. Standing in the courtyard, one could see the city expand before them.

The entire building was crafted with White Ghost Wood, giving a sense of ethreality. The giant pillars that supported the buildings were each of them etched with excellent craftsmanship.

The master of White Crane Hall, Tu Hengshan, stood with his arms crossed behind his back. His white robe fluttered in the wind as he stood in an imposing manner; the mix of white in his black hair gave off signs of growing age. Yet despite all that, he didn’t lose his momentum.

" Grand Elder Deng, what do you think? Why is Feng Jinyan coming here?"

" Hall Master, I believe he must wish to station his troops here." Elder Deng sighed as he calculated, " If he manages to bring the Snow Eagle Troops along with him, it would be really difficult to stop him."

Tu Hengshan shook his head, " That would be too big of a move. Imperial Family won’t allow such an army to be mobilized within the empire. However, Feng Jinyan definitely has some plot."

" Hmph, to think the Ironback Crocodile Clan’s young master was assassinated within the city. Their patriarch is really angry." Elder Deng muttered, " Both clans might really go to war with each other."

" The Rising Sun Sword Sect and other sects of the Seven Stars must be lurking for an opportunity. After all, they have been in equilibrium for far too long."

Suddenly, the cloud rumbled as a gigantic carriage appeared in the sky. The carriage was magnificent, with six wheels turning like they were made of flames. The carriage was dragged by two dragon like creatures.

" Tsk, they even brought a pair of Azure Spot Horned Serpents." Elder Deng gave a wry smile. Each of those Azure Spot Horned Serpents was an Ethreal Yaos, having the strength of Nine Transformations of Soul Realm.

The carriage descended as it exuded an aura of authority and power. From the carriage, first one who got off was an old man wearing a simple white robe.

Seeing him, Tu Hengshan was stunned, " Elder Blue Bamboo?! You are here?"

" Hoho, did I surprise you, Tu Hengshan?" Blue Bamboo chuckled as he didn’t mind Tu Hengshan’s surprise. " Don’t worry about me; I am here just to sightsee."

He opened the carriage door as a young man walked out. Donning a blazing red robe, the young man looked sharp and fierce, wielding a giant sword behind his back.

" Greetings, Prince Jinyan." Tu Hengshan and Elder Deng greeted him. However, Feng Jinyan’s expression wasn’t good at all.

" Hm, that’s alright." Feng Jinyan waved his hands with impatience. Tu Hengshan frowned as he couldn’t understand why Jinyan was acting like that.

However, his expression changed when he saw someone else was walking out of the carriage. Tu Hengshan recognized the girl immediately as he cupped his fist.

" Greetings, Fourteenth Princess, Feng Xinye." Tu Hengshan hurriedly greeted her, " I didn’t know you were coming, Princess. Forgive me for..."

" It’s fine. Uncle Tu, I was the one who came suddenly." Feng Xinye smirked. " After all, my dear brother was going somewhere, so I just chose to follow him."

Tu Hengshan gave a wry smile as Elder Deng rubbed his forehead, " Very well, everyone, please follow me inside."

Elder Deng gave a second glance to the carriage as they led everyone inside. However, he felt like there might be some other people inside the carriage.

After all, this treasure carriage is personally crafted by some of the best blacksmiths of the empire, and the array formations were inscribed by Flame Monarch Guo himself. So Elder Deng couldn’t possibly peer inside it with his divine sense.

Feng Xinye wore a flashy golden dress, with flares of red etched on it like blood flowing through golden fields. Her physique was rather petite. However, none of them dared to treat her as a child.

’ Fuck, to think this troublemaker will come with me.’ Feng Jinyan cursed in his heart. ’ Let’s focus on my work here. I doubt she will be a nuisance.’

The banquet hall was filled to the brim as everyone was trying to curry favors with Feng Jinyan. After all, he is an Imperial Prince with a powerful backing of his own.

On the contrary, barely anyone dared to approach Feng Xinye. And those who did, they were shooed away by Xinye.

" Huh, This..."

Elder Blue Bamboo paused before a painting as he stared at it with couple of good seconds. " Such a great painting!"

The exclamation of Elder Blue Bamboo drew the attention of almost every big wig in the banquet. Even Feng Jinyan gave a look of curiosity.

Who is Blue Bamboo Daoist? He is one of the core figures of the Feng Imperial Family, serving only under the Emperor. He is one of the few unaffiliated figures in the imperial clan who reached the pinnacle of the Nine Transformations of Soul Realm.

The painting depicted the scene of a dancing woman. The dress she wore was ethereal white, giving the hint of shadows beneath. It deliciously traced her curves, without actually showing anything at all.

She had a blissful expression, holding a pipa in her hand. It was like a moment was captured within the canvas.

However, that’s not all; the picture wasn’t meant just to be seen. Staring at it, many people felt like they could hear the faint echoes of music. The sound of the pipa echoed, making everyone feel like they were witnessing the girl’s dance.

" Interesting, this painting already reached the realm of visualization. However, even then, only those who truly focus on it could see its marvel." Elder Blue Bamboo clicked his tongue.

Tu Hengshan could only give a wry smile, " Indeed, it was truly a magnificent piece of art. It was brought by...Elder Deng?"

" Um, Yes, my wife...He is the one who placed it." Elder Deng mumbled as he looked at Tu Hengshan.

" Hall Master, didn’t I tell you my wife said she was in contact with some hidden expert? I believe she wasn’t bluffing!" Elder Deng gave a mental voice to Tu Hengshan.

" Hmm, that might work in our favor. Deng Hua is really capable." Tu Hengshan nodded.

" Wahh, that painting is so pretty!" Feng Jinye clapped her hand, " I wish to make a painting of myself too. Elder Deng, do you know where I can find the painter?"

" Uhhh, he should be...in the garden, I believe."

" Alright!"

Before Elder Deng could react, Feng Xinye had already disappeared from her position.

" Hmm, the clouds are looking really nice." Long Ming muttered as he leaned against a tree, gazing before the vast opening before him.

" Painting is truly interesting. No matter how you capture a scene with a phone...or say, photographic jade, painting always stays there as an unique option."

’ Hmm, four people stealthily came out of the carriage of the prince. Each of them are Harmonization Realm cultivators. But looking at their aura, it looks like they are specialized in assassination. Did the prince brought them to induce chaos in city?’

Despite sitting here, Long Ming’s divine sense could see everything happening in the banquet and White Crane Hall. Suddenly, his gaze flinched as he saw a girl materialized before him.

Feng Xinye gazed at Long Ming for a moment before her eyes sparkled.

" You! You must be the painter, right?!" She hurriedly approached Long Ming and spoke with haughtiness.

" You, become my husband."
