Chapter 1116: Eve of the Wedding

Elder Xiao Chou of the Four Nine Immortal Sect would be holding his wedding!

This was a grand occasion for the entire cultivation world.

The Four Nine Immortal Sect had come under the limelight again as representatives from all over the world arrived to join in on the festivities.

After returning to the Four Nine Immortal Sect, An Lin was still not back to full health, but he could at least walk around without having to be carried in a coffin now.

On the day of the wedding.

Countless immortals had gathered from all over the world.

A series of ferocious, terrifying mutant beasts lay sprawled onto the ground like obedient sheep.

This was because the Four Nine Immortal Sect prohibited loud commotion.

Within the Kingdom of the Nine States, the Heavenly Court, three of the four great sects, the Nine Imperials, and a bunch of other first-rate sects had all sent representatives to the wedding.

Outside of the Kingdom of the Nine States, there were also many powerful entities like the Creation Realm, the Western Paradise, and the Garden of Eden that had sent representatives as well.

This wedding wasn’t as significant as the grand opening of the sect, so there weren’t that many sect leaders who attended the wedding in person, but all of their presents certainly arrived on time.

And that was enough!

An Lin wore a wide smile as the congratulatory presents poured in.

A joyful atmosphere had settled over the entire sect.

Bai Yao’s mother, Bai Muyu, was also attending the wedding alongside a White Fox Tribe entourage.

Thinking back, this was the third time that she was attending her daughter’s wedding, and she experienced different emotions every single time…

“Sect Leader, there is a special guest at the gate. They don’t have an invitation letter, but they’re sure that you’ll know them!”

The disciple responsible for the reception of guests, Chu Ming, spoke to An Lin as he extended a respectful salute.

“Hmm? No invitation letter? And they’re sure I know them? This isn’t some random troll, is it? Have you verified that they’re actually serious?” An Lin’s brows furrowed.

Chu Ming nodded. “I have. They gave me a tip of ten thousand spirit stones.”

An Lin nodded. “Alright, I’ll go have a look.”

Outside the gate of the Four Nine Immortal Sect.

A figure in a white robe with their facial features concealed was standing silently.

As a light breeze blew past, the black-robed figure looked up at the large plaque on top of the gate. The black robe fluttered in the breeze, and one could indistinctly make out a thin figure underneath.

Tang Ximen was standing guard by the gate, and he looked at the black-robed figure with a tense expression.

However, no matter how much he scrutinized the black-robed figure, it was like there was a layer of mist obstructing his vision, and he couldn’t tell what they looked like.

This must be a mighty figure who doesn’t want to reveal their identity. I’m just going to leave them alone…

Tang Ximen backed down in his customary cowardly manner before attending to the other guests.

“You wanted to see me?”

An Lin made his way over to the gate and looked at the black-robed figure before him with a cautious gaze.

Even with his powerful divine sense, he was unable to see through that layer of mist.

This black-robed figure was either extremely powerful, or they were using an extremely potent concealment artifact.

Upon hearing this, the black-robed figure nodded before cocking their head to the side and asking in a husky voice, “Sect Leader An Lin, guess who I am.”

An Lin rolled his eyes. “I don’t have the patience for time-wasters. Hurry and tell me what you want! I still have a lot of things I need to attend to.”

The black-robed figure crossed their arms and twisted their body before speaking in a displeased voice, “How could you talk like that to me? Can’t you be a bit gentler and more accommodating?”

Goosebumps erupted all over An Lin’s body.

Was this guy flirting with him?

This was definitely some perverted freak!

A disgusted and disdainful expression appeared on An Lin’s face.

The black-robed figure couldn’t keep up the act any longer and dispelled the concealing mist.

A pair of sapphire eyes and a set of fair, intricate features appeared.

“Big Boss An Lin, how could you look at me like that?” said a pleasant voice.

An Lin faltered upon seeing this. If the black-robed figure was a man, then their flirtatious actions and words would have been quite disgusting. However, if this was a woman, then it was quite normal…

Wait… That wasn’t the point…

“Underling Lan, I’m so surprised to see you!” An Lin exclaimed.

“Haha!” Lan Xiaoni clasped her hands behind her back and inched forward as she stared at An Lin with a smile on her face.

An Lin took a deep breath before asking in a low voice, “What are you doing here? Didn’t I tell you that I have to keep my connections with the Spirit Fish Clan confidential for now?”

Lan Xiaoni pouted upon hearing this. “That’s why I went to all this trouble to conceal myself… My father told me you used your Deep Sea Super Bomb, so he sent me here to give you another present…

“Also… I’m here for what I’ve done to Xiao Chou and Bai Yao. I want… I want to apologize in person and present a gift to them…”

Lan Xiaoni raised her head and bit down on her lower lip with a firm expression as she spoke. It had clearly taken her a lot of determination to make this decision.

An Lin faltered upon hearing this.

The high and mighty mermaid princess, the cowardly yet willful Lan Xiaoni, was here of her own volition to offer an apology?

An Lin was quite touched by this.

It looked like his Underling Lan had grown up…

“Alright then. Keep your disguise on, and I’ll introduce you to everyone during our sect get-together tomorrow! You’re my underling, after all, so you’re technically a member of the Four Nine Immortal Sect,” An Lin said with a smile.

A vibrant smile appeared on Lan Xiaoni’s face as she nodded earnestly. “Sure!”

A member of the Four Nine Immortal Sect?

For some reason, a sense of belonging welled up in her heart upon hearing this.

“Oh, right, Big Boss An Lin, my father told me to give this Deep Sea Bomb to you. There are only limited materials for making the Deep Sea Super Bomb, so he won’t be able to make one in a short time. This Deep Sea Bomb still contains his power of the divine dao and is capable of killing a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure.”

“Alright, thank you for the present!”

An Lin accepted the bomb with a smile.

As for killing a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure, he was obviously not going to fall for it. This was just Lan Xingyang boasting to make himself look good. After all, the Moonlit Night Monarch was a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure. If even the Deep Sea Super Bomb was unable to kill her, how was a Deep Sea Bomb going to be able to achieve what the Deep Sea Super Bomb was unable to?

The two of them chatted for a while longer.

Lan Xiaoni followed An Lin and surreptitiously made her way into the sect.

She was free to roam the sect after that, and she explored her big boss’ sect with curiosity in her eyes, wondering just what kind of place this was.

Perhaps it was because An Lin had acknowledged her as a member of the Four Nine Immortal Sect, but she felt like everything here was very pleasing to the eye. Even Tang Ximen was slightly handsome in her eyes.

Beside the lake, she discovered a vibrant red flower singing a beautiful song!

Its voice was very pleasant, but she didn’t know what language it was singing in.

A large dog and a white wolf were chasing one another while bumping a white, furry snowball with their heads. They seemed to be playing some sort of energetic game.

She also saw the little fairy and little butterfly she had already met once.

Lan Xiaoni continued onward down the bluestone path, and a joyful smile appeared on her face as she looked around at the scenery and living beings within the sect.

Before she knew it, she had arrived at a dao plaza.

This was a cavernous dao plaza, and there was an exquisitely beautiful woman in a jade dress who was practicing her sword techniques.

Lan Xiaoni was a little entranced by the beauty of the woman and her sword techniques.

At the same time, she was very curious. Who was this woman?
