Lin Feng and Xiao Yan didnt have to be present for the engagement. But since they had already made it such a big matter and told everyone they would be here for the engagement, it became slightly awkward now.

Gu Jun turned his attention towards Zhu Yi, Wang Lin, and the others. Wang Lins expression didnt change whereas Zhu Yi slight nodded his head at Gu Jun. He was hinting for him to remain patient.

Gu Jun retracted his gaze and turned to the other side. There was a middle-aged man over there. His hands were behind his back and his entire person seemed very prim and proper. There was a mighty sword aura that shot out from him.

In fact, everyone present was slightly curious about this middle-aged man.

Thats because this man was the current sect leader of the Mount Shu Sword Sect, Ji Wenrui.

His appearance was a surprise for many. Even the Gu Empire was stunned when they received news from the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

After the recent War of the Two Worlds, the Mount Shu Sword Sect sealed its mountain once again. Even the junior disciples werent allowed to leave the mountain.

During the War of the Two Worlds, the internal uproar caused by the Cangming Swordmaster and the others was discovered and led to a lot of wild guesses even though the Mount Shu Sword Sect and the Celestial Sect of Wonders never spoke about the matter.

After all, the changes in the Nine Heavens Primordial Sword Formation could be detected by the rest of the other eight sword sects in the Nine Heavenly Sword Alliance. Many of them had a close brush with death and their own sword formations even almost collapsed. The sword aura within their sword formations was even sucked out until there was almost nothing left.

After the war, the eight sword sects demanded an explanation. Outsiders had many explanations and guesses regarding Mount Shus handling of the matter. Whereas the truth of the internal uproar within the Mount Shu Sword Sect was always slowly revealed to outsiders.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders and Mount Shu Sword Sect had a deep enmity with each other. After this matter, their ties became more awkward even though they didnt necessarily worsen.

Since then, the Mount Shu Sword Sect kept a low-profile.

After the War of the Two Worlds, the Celestial Sect of Wonders slowly acquired the title of being the number one Holy Ground for the art of swordplay even though they werent a sword sect. It was because Lin Fengs sword managed to curb the demons and Luo Qingwus Original Spirit Sword of Extremity started to gain a reputation for itself.

When Luo Qingwus First Disciple, Han Yang, formed his Immortal Soul, he mastered the Luoyuan Destroyer Sword and cemented the Celestial Sects position as the sect for all sword cultivators to proceed to.

The Mount Shu Sword Sect ended up in an awkward position and was slowly forgotten by the younger generation of cultivators.

The rest of the cultivators were unsettled seeing that Ji Wenrui had appeared. Their instincts told them that the Celestial Sect of Wonders gathered all of them for an extremely important matter. This matter was more influential than they initially thought.

The Heavenly Master Swordmaster, Lightning Swordmaster, Supreme Radiance Swordmaster and other sword cultivators remained calm when they saw Ji Wenrui. But they turned more serious.

Unlike the rest, Gu Jun and Gu Cheng were aware that Ji Wenrui only came because he was invited by the Celestial Sect of Wonders.

Since Ji Wenrui was willing to accept an invitation from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, it should mean that he knew what Lin Feng was up too.

However, they werent in a position to ask Ji Wenrui directly. The ceremony was about to begin. When Lin Feng and Xiao Yan arrived, their doubts could be answered.

However, Lin Feng and Xiao Yan were yet to arrive even though it was getting closer to noon. Everyone was starting to wonder what was going on.

At this point, there was a slit in distant void space. A ferocious force could be felt from this slit.

In the Longevity City, everyone turned their attention towards the distant void space.

There was a huge and magical formation revolving above the Longevity City. It was the Antarctica Longevity Grand Formation.

This ferocious aura was very familiar to those from the Gu Empire. Twenty years ago, they had come into close contact with it in the Ancient Longevity World. They werent unfamiliar with this aura. They could instantly tell that it was a violent aura that came from the Netherworld Seas catastrophes.

Although they didnt believe that the Emperor of the Dead would come to cause trouble, the Antarctica Longevity Grand Formation was still initiated in case it was a surprise situation. Besides the Emperor of the dead, Xiao Yan and Wu Mengqi from the Great Void Sect could open the Netherworld Sea.

The scene that was presented in front of everyones eyes next left them stunned. Thats because the countless disasters didnt flood the Divine Lands even though they continued to rage.

Although the Netherworld Sea was slitten open, there seemed to be an invisible barrier that repressed the disasters and prevented them from causing mass destruction.

The dim-yellow River Styx Primordial Water and blood-red Blood River Primordial Water flowed out from that slit. Although they were cleansing and polluting the spiritual energy, it wasnt a messy process. They intersected together and formed a pathway with rhythm.

That pathway started to burn with the Nefarious Spectral Primordial fire and Heavenly Apocalyptic Blaze. However, they were like beasts that were restrained. They were unable to instill fear or cause destruction.

The presence of the Nefarious Spectral Primordial Fire and Heavenly Apocalyptic Blaze even suppressed the Blood River Primordial Water and River Styx Primordial.

The polluted, bloody water was very pungent and was engulfed by the flames, leaving behind only a few streaks of green smoke. Whereas the River Styx Primordial Water cleansed everything and removed the sense of desolation.

Above the pathway, the Nine Nether Draught and Avici Infernal Gale became gentler. Its as if streaks of black silk and red auspicious clouds were being guided by the pathway.

Whether it was Gu Jun, Gu Cheng, Ji Wenrui or Shi Zongtang, their pupils shrank when they saw this scene, The violent Netherworld Sea has become so calm?

At the end of this pathway, two enormous fire lotuses bloomed. They were blinding and eye-catching, as they burned brightly. They removed all the gloominess brought about by the countless disasters in the Netherworld Sea and shone beautifully on the Heavens and Earth.

Above the two fire lotuses, there were two figures. They were Lin Feng and Xiao Yan.

The two of them stood on the Fire Lotuses and the fire lotuses moved forward along the pathway. The pathway was destroyed as they moved across it. The evil aura in the sky turned to nothing. After this, the two fire lotuses shrank and landed in the Longevity City. The slit in void space mended without leaving a trace. Its as if it never existed before.

Shi Zongtang and the others finally understood when they saw the fire lotus beneath Lin Feng. The rumors are true. The person thats cultivating the Netherworld Sea isnt Lin Feng, but his disciple Xiao Yan

As she said till here, everyone started to look at Xiao Yan with a different gaze.

Although Xiao Yan rarely appeared nowadays, no one dared to underestimate him. However, his suppression of the Netherworld Seas disasters left everyone in shock.

Ji Wenruis gaze flinched a little as he saw this scene. Hes much freer than he was during the War of the two Worlds. How far has he cultivated the Netherworld sea?

Everyone looked at Xiao Yan with an appalled look in their eyes. When they turned their attention to Lin Feng, who was in front of Xiao Yan, their hearts started to surge with emotions.

The Ying Seas three Celestial Mountains had landed in Lin Fengs hands. His three avatars had remained in the Ying Sea over these few years.

For those who had entered the Ying Sea before, they could sense that it was different from before when they entered the Ying sea again recently.

The feeling didnt seem to be real, but everyone knew that they werent wrong.

Out of the six gates to the Starry Sea, four of them belonged to Lin Feng now. Although the demons could enter in and out of the Starry Sea, Lin Feng could shut their gates if he found out.

The Ancient Desolate Galaxy had turned into a land of nirvana for the humans. Not only was there an abundance of resources in the Ancient Desolate Galaxy, the Celestial Sect of Wonders also granted permission for some sects to send their disciples in for training.

The Netherworld Sea seemed to be slowly becoming a property of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. Rumors also suggested that the Spirit Sea was about to be opened again and the Celestial Sect of Wonders was certainly going to try cultivating it. All these left the rest of the human cultivation world dazzled.

Although the Celestial Sect of Wonders had dominated the entire Divine Lands now, they still managed to shock everyone. Everyone realized that the Celestial Sect of Wonders was still in a state of rapid growth. Their potential was still in abundance.

Lin Feng looked at everyone in front of him and thought to himself, Were appearing so flashily even though were late. Are they itching to whack us?

He shook his head before discarding his thoughts. He smiled at everyone and nodded, Apologies for arriving late for such an important ceremony. Its my fault for making all of you wait. Please forgive me.

Gu Jun and the rest returned his greetings, Master Lin, your words are too serious.

Xiao Yan also stepped forward and clasped his palm and fist, I met with a small matter during my cultivation, thus were delayed. Elders and comrades, please forgive me.

Gu Jun smiled, No worries. Even though cultivators of my level have a precise grasp of timing, its a common thing to meet with obstacles during the process of cultivation.

Gu Jun looked at the weather and smiled, Noon is about to arrive. The ceremony can start.

Lin Feng and Xiao Yan were guided to their seats by Gu Cheng.

After Gu Jun took his seat, Gu Cheng was in charge of hosting the ceremony.

Besides the conference and pill cultivation contest which would be organized later, Lin Feng came to offer his support to his eldest disciple.

Although he had other matters to tend to, Lin Fengs personal visit was something that every sect and power had to take into account. He was accorded the highest respect.

Moreover, the entire Gu Empire was very concerned about Xiao Zhener. They wouldnt skim on the formalities, thus the entire ceremony was very grand.

Of course, Lin Feng didnt carry the betrothal gift with him. Zhu Yi, Wang Lin and the others who arrived beforehand had already brought it for him. Before the ceremony officially started, they passed the betrothal gift to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng couldnt be stingy as he offered the betrothal gift on behalf of his eldest disciple.
