Chapter 66: Getting Married
In the dark underground palace, a man in dark blue clothes stabbed a weak man in the chest with a sharp sword, ignoring his pleas and curses, and then wickedly smiled…
………………………………………
Shu Mountain was lit up with excitement. Today was the wedding of Shu Mountain Sect Master Hua Qing and the little fox Hu Cancan. Early in the morning, many people came to congratulate them, including important figures from other immortal mountains.
There were few women in Shu Mountain, only two or three. Yu Xiu dressed Hu Cancan herself, tying up her long hair and dressing her in a bright red wedding gown, making her look beautiful.
Yu Xiu was both dressing Hu Cancan and shedding tears. A disciple from Shu Mountain persuaded her, "Sister, don’t cry. On this joyous day, you should be as happy as if you were marrying off your own daughter."
Yu Xiu wiped away her tears and forced a smile, "Cancan was the first friend I made after leaving the mountain for training. No matter what, she has always been by my side, believing in me and protecting me." Yu Xiu kept tearing up, "And now that she’s getting married, my feelings are different."
Cancan, on the other hand, kept a radiant smile. Her eyes were smiling like a crescent moon, "Even though I’m getting married, I can still come and play with you all the time!"
The people had different expressions on their faces. Everyone on Shu Mountain knew that Hua Qing was close to being possessed by evil, and they also knew what might happen today. Seeing her smiling happily, eagerly waiting to get married, she also felt a bit sad inside.
Even though their former elder martial sister Xian Yue fell into the evil ways, she was still their elder martial sister once. And now, Little Fox Cancan, even though she’s a demon, has always been kind-hearted. Even with Snowflake Glass on her, it hasn’t made her lose her true nature.
Thinking about how good she was, eagerly anticipating happiness, looking forward to marrying her love, she was about to face the Immortal Slaying Magical Array. Some soft-hearted ones even shed tears.
Cancan saw them crying, stomped her foot and scolded, "Why are you all crying? Even if you’re sad for me, reluctant to let me marry, you shouldn’t cry like this. Look at you, you’re all crying, if I, the new bride, don’t cry, it seems like I can’t wait to marry Hua Qing. How can I let him have such a misunderstanding!"
Yu Xiu finally calmed down a bit, wiped her tears, "Yes, stop crying, stop crying. It’s all my fault, making everyone cry."
Cancan muttered, "While I may be a bit impatient, I shouldn’t show it so clearly!"
Yu Xiu and the others suddenly felt awkward.
The sound of the bell ringing "dong dong dong" interrupted them. Cancan exclaimed, looking up, "Is it time already?"
Yu Xiu’s expression changed slightly. She murmured, "Yes, it’s time, it is time indeed."
Cancan suddenly shed a tear, but quickly put on a bright smile and covered her head, saying, "Okay, Yu Xiu, please help me to the grand hall. Today is the most beautiful day for me!"
Yu Xiu helped Cancan up, the noise outside the door was loud. Hua Qing, dressed in a bright red robe, stood quietly in the grand hall, watching the guests arriving to congratulate. He smirked at their intentions. He understood them at a glance, but at this moment, he didn’t care about these people. Besides having the support of Snowflake Glass, only eight people could set up the Immortal Slaying Magical Array, not nine. He understood this principle.
With a cold smile, he looked at a few people, thinking about what they could do now. He had already dashed their last hope yesterday. Hua Qing sneered, recalling yesterday when his Snowflake Glass acted up. Not wanting to harm the Shu Mountain disciples, he went to the Nine-curved Underground Palace. Now, knowing that Hua Yun in the palace had lost his life, he smiled faintly.
Killing two birds with one stone.
This made his Snowflake Glass stronger and severed their chance to form the Immortal Slaying Magical Array using Hua Yun.
As expected, not long after, a Shu Mountain disciple hurried to Mu Bai and whispered something. Mu Bai looked incredulously at Hua Qing, who gave him a sinister smile. They understood each other without words.
Mu Bai didn’t expect Hua Qing to actually kill Hua Yun. He stared at Hua Qing for a while, then turned away. Originally, he wanted to use his magic to suppress Hua Yun’s evil nature, making his memories return to five hundred years ago, replacing Cancan. Forcing Cancan to attack Hua Qing was too cruel. However, fate had its ways.
With Hua Yun gone, Cancan was the only one who could step up. Although she was no longer Xian Yue, she was the most familiar with the Immortal Slaying Magical Array among all disciples, and she knew Hua Qing the best.
He didn’t want Cancan to be involved in everything, but he had to reach this point. Looking at the clothes on himself, made by Cancan, Cancan…
"The bride has arrived…" A noise erupted.
The surroundings suddenly became lively, though lively, within this liveliness there was endless sadness.
Yu Xiu held Cancan’s arm, slowly walking to the grand hall. Martial Uncle Mu Bai cleared his throat upon seeing them, "The bride has arrived…"
Yu Xiu, supporting Cancan, finally reached Hua Qing’s side. Hua Qing reached out, interlocking hands with Cancan, her delicate hand soft as a feather. Hua Qing smiled, holding her hand, the two stood in the grand hall. The grand clock chimed again, Mu Bai’s voice resounded once more.
"Bowing to the sky and earth…" a couple devoutly knelt down, bowing their heads.
"Bowing to the ancestral hall…" the two knelt towards the senior master seated in the center of the grand hall.
"Exchanging vows as husband and wife…" the two held hands, fingers intertwining, kneeling towards each other and bowing.
"The ceremony is complete." Martial Uncle Mu Bai said slowly.
As the words "the ceremony is complete" were uttered, the entire grand hall suddenly darkened. Hua Qing smirked, looking towards Martial Uncle Mu Bai seated in front, smiling faintly, "Is Martial Uncle really going to make a move?" Pausing for a moment, he pulled Cancan behind him, chuckling, "But your Immortal Slaying Magical Array is missing one person."
Mu Bai said seriously, "Hua Qing, please hand over Snowflake Glass."
Hua Qing laughed loudly, "Since you are looking for trouble, I won’t hold back either."
Cancan removed her wedding veil, tears streaming down her face, no longer wearing her usual bright smile. She held onto Hua Qing, pleading, "Hua Qing, please, listen to Martial Uncle. You can’t go on like this. You will regret it if you do."
Hua Qing stared coldly at Cancan, his icy voice squeezing out between his teeth, "You already knew?"
Cancan nodded, biting her lip, "Yes, Hua Qing, the Immortal Slaying Magical Array is no joke." With tears on her face, she suddenly acted and placed a charm on Hua Qing’s back. Hua Qing instantly felt a chilling sensation all over his body. "Ah…" He opened his arms, roaring in anger, his long hair flying wildly. His eyes turned red in an instant, his tone cold and eerie, "Hu Cancan, hello, you are truly something!"
The roar caused the charm on his body to fall off, making the hall shake continuously. Falling debris hit Cancan, causing her to cough up blood and collapse.
Hua Qing smirked coldly, "Martial Uncle is really out of options. Hu Cancan is just trash, and yet you want to use her. Do you really think she is as powerful as Xian Yue from her past life?"
Cancan only stared into Hua Qing’s eyes, desperately pleading.
All Cancan received was a cold slap from Hua Qing, with almost no hesitation. The blow sent Cancan crashing into a pillar, causing her to fall and spit blood.
Hua Qing laughed loudly, his eyes filled with anger and coldness, "I hate it when people betray me, Hu Cancan, hello, you’re so good, aren’t you!" He paused, the crimson in his eyes intensified, "Since you want to die so much, I’ll let you die first."
"Activate the Immortal Slaying Magical Array." Martial Uncle Mu Bai saw this and immediately started chanting a spell, the people in the nine corners immediately sat cross-legged and continued to chant the spell for the Immortal Slaying Magical Array.
Hua Qing was immediately trapped in a net, unable to escape or break free.
He held his head down, then chanted a spell, the Snowflake Glass in his body emitted a sparkling light, the whole hall bright and eerie under the light. It was because of this bright light that Hua Qing saw the people in the nine corners. He sneered, transformed his Icebreaker Sword, which emanated a faint cold light, and without hesitation, he attacked Cancan.
Even if it wasn’t for Cancan’s betrayal, he could see that the weakest link in the Immortal Slaying Magical Array was still on Cancan. She knew the spells, understood the formations, but she was not Xian Yue after all, she simply did not have the cultivation level. How could she support the Immortal Slaying Magical Array with just basic knowledge from the Little Fox Cancan book?
Just as Hua Qing was about to stab Cancan, she suddenly raised her head, her tearful eyes startled him. The sword in his hand abruptly changed direction, striking the person beside her. The elder next to Cancan spat out blood, strengthening his own power.
"Turn!" Mu Bai immediately changed his position upon seeing this.
The hall suddenly vanished, engulfing Hua Qing in darkness once again. He intertwined his index fingers and continued chanting spells. The Snowflake Glass in his body emitted a faint light again. With this light, he saw Cancan’s position clearly, and struck out with a palm. Cancan was hit and thrown out of bounds again. Hua Qing took a step forward, grabbed Cancan by the neck, his eyes crimson, squeezing hard, full of hatred, "Why did you betray me, why! You promised to protect me forever, is this your protection? Hu Cancan, tell me, tell me!"
Hua Qing’s grip was strong, Cancan struggled as he choked her, but with each struggle, he exerted more force. Slowly, her strength began to diminish…
Mu Bai saw what was happening and picked up the Green Jade Sword that Big Green had given him. He stabbed towards Hua Qing, who instantly burst into flames. However, Mu Bai did not let go of Cancan. He pushed Mu Bai away with a palm strike, appearing half like fire and half like an ice glacier.
"Hu Cancan, why did you betray me?"
