Chapter 867: Great Wedding

The old woman couldn't bear it; she felt utterly devastated, as if struck by lightning.

His smile brought no pleasure, only irritation, shock, and fury.

Both the old woman in the room and the old monster eavesdropping outside clutched their chests, feeling as if they were having heart attacks, their hearts heavy with unbearable pain.

"You!" The old woman in the room pointed at Chu Feng, her hand trembling. She wanted to spit on him. This young man was utterly shameless, two-faced, a complete swindler, trying to be the son-in-law of two families. And he remained so calm after everything!

In contrast, the old woman truly couldn't remain calm. She knocked over the coffee table and chairs, ending up soaked in tea and looking utterly disheveled. Her chest ached with frustration.

This time, the Great Dream Pure Land had been completely duped by this devil. Was he truly the same person as Wu Lun?!

"Don't stop me! I must eliminate evil and uphold justice!" Outside the room, an old monster's face was flushed, veins throbbing on his forehead, agitated beyond measure.

"Old Wang, calm down! The invitations have already been sent out. The entire universe knows that the Saintess of our Great Dream Pure Land is getting married. What kind of scene would you be making now? If word gets out, our Great Dream Pure Land will become the laughingstock of the star sea!"

Several old monsters restrained the old man, urging him not to cause trouble, truly fearing a massive scandal.

Then, several old men burst through the door and stormed into the palace. Upon seeing Chu Feng, they were all panting heavily, their faces red and necks flushed. It was a rare sight indeed for such esteemed figures to appear so flustered.

"Devil! Liar! Kidnapper! Swindler! You are utterly despicable! You're going to ruin our Great Dream Pure Land!" one old man roared.

They were concerned about a potential confrontation with the Quasi-Immortal Clan, as both sides were vying for the same son-in-law. It would be outrageous if both daughters ended up marrying the same man.

It was unprecedented; for a top-ranked orthodoxy like theirs, their Saintess had never before been recorded as marrying the same person as someone else.

Chu Feng, completely calm, stated, "Didn't you force my hand? I truly admired the divine hall of the Great Dream Pure Land, but you ignored me, refused to send me a golden invitation, and then mocked me. I acted out of momentary pique, compelled to find another way to enter the Pure Land. I'm ashamed, I was young and reckless, please forgive me."

His words left the group of old monsters speechless, unable to scold or strike him, filled with extreme shame and frustration.

Remembering their past actions, they felt ashamed and irritated. They had repeatedly ridiculed Chu Feng, treated him with disdain, and even threatened to block his path to advancement.

The outcome was that they had not only lost face but also suffered significant damage, leaving them utterly enraged and humiliated. They truly wished they could give Chu Feng a good beating.

However, it was now a fait accompli. Could they really announce to the entire universe that the chosen dao partner wasn't Chu Feng? That was unrealistic. Guests were arriving continuously, and all of them were distinguished VIPs.

If such a thing were to happen, the Great Dream Pure Land would lose all credibility and become a universal joke. These old monsters now realized they had created a bitter pill that they seemingly had to swallow, even if it brought tears to their eyes.

Yet, seeing Chu Feng so composed, they were infuriated. This devil, this bully, this kidnapper, this deceitful swindler, was truly despicable.

"Seniors, I didn't lie to anyone. I am Chu Feng, and the person you chose was indeed Chu Feng," Chu Feng stated, reminding them that his identity had always been genuine.

"Keep this a secret; it must not be revealed!" an old woman warned, fearing the Quasi-Immortal Clan would cause a scene at the wedding. Regardless, future troubles could be dealt with later; for now, they would ignore them.

"So, seniors, Ying Wudi, Yuan Yuan, and Yuan Shicheng are in your hands. They know the truth, so you'll have to figure out how to keep them quiet."

Hearing this, the old monsters immediately winced. From that moment on, they would have to start cleaning up his mess.

"I'd like to see Luo Yin," Chu Feng said with a smile.

Now, just the sight of his smile sent shivers down their spines. While others' smiles were radiant, his guaranteed trouble.

"No, you must avoid suspicion before the wedding!"

With that, the group departed in a hurried, almost flustered manner.

They were still somewhat worried that Qin Luoyin's pregnancy might be revealed.

"Forget it. This devil swindled us, so now we're even. We'll just keep Luo Yin's matter a secret from him; we don't feel guilty anymore."

"Indeed, that makes sense. No matter how much trouble Devil Chu causes, he'll still be kept in the dark in the end. It's payback!"

As these thoughts crossed the old monsters' minds, their emotional balance significantly improved. Their bodies felt lighter, and their steps became more nimble.

"Wait a moment, I just remembered! That Overlord Divine Body, Jun Tuo's son, isn't he also peculiar? He used to be inseparable from Wu Lun. Now that he's with Chu Feng, let's go ask him!"

Subsequently, they returned and questioned Chu Feng: "Is the so-called Overlord Divine Body, Ouyang, truly his real identity? It must be, right?"

"I forgot to mention, he's like me; he accidentally slipped in using an alias," Chu Feng said, rather mischievously. "Though, I do feel he might genuinely be related to Jun Tuo by blood."

The people of Great Dream Pure Land only caught the first part of his statement, completely missing the second. They were so enraged their hearts bled; it felt like another stab to the heart at the very last moment.

Damn it! Not only Chu Feng, but a divine beast also managed to sneak in! The Great Dream Pure Land's defenses were abysmal, like a sieve. It was infuriating!

Feeling deeply wounded, they turned and left immediately.

Over the next two days, more and more guests arrived. Fortunately, the Great Dream Pure Land was vast enough to accommodate tens of thousands of visitors from various evolutionary races.

A smaller sect would never have been able to host such an event.

During this time, Chu Feng was far from idle. He moved around with Ouyang Feng, Zi Luan, and Yuan Mo Zhao Qing, ostensibly helping the Great Dream Pure Land arrange their force fields.

Of course, the Great Dream Pure Land didn't take his efforts seriously, not believing his field array mastery could reach the Saint-level realm.

In reality, Chu Feng was preparing for a major event. He worried about unexpected incidents at the wedding, as he didn't believe all the Saints in the universe had truly departed; surely some remained.

Not only were there two Saints within the Great Dream Pure Land itself, but he had also sensed an old Saint during his last visit to the Fragrant Elephant Clan.

"The Great Dream Pure Land is filled with spiritual mountains, their purple aura rising like mist. The scenery is truly beautiful," Zi Luan exclaimed, her eyes sparkling, her steps light, as if she were simply sightseeing.

After a stern reprimand from Chu Feng, she immediately dutifully began helping to arrange the force fields, burying important divine magnetic stones.

Chu Feng made all necessary preparations, at the very least intending to take control of all existing large-scale force fields before adding his own supplementary arrangements.

"Well, it would be best if no one causes trouble. If anyone tries to disrupt things at this crucial moment, it will be a fight to the death. I don't mind slaying Saints!"

Hearing his murderous words, even Ouyang Feng was startled. This brother was clearly planning something big and momentous!

"Oh no, more scheming and fighting!" Zi Luan muttered softly.

"Go dig holes and bury the divine magnetic stones!" Chu Feng glared.

"Hmph!" She immediately twisted her slender waist, raised her chin, and with a toss of her head, gracefully swayed away, showing him her back.

Finally, the wedding day arrived. Most of the guests had gathered, with the most distinguished arriving last. Chu Feng began to greet the arrivals, as a grand wedding was about to commence.

The old monsters of the Great Dream Pure Land were even more nervous than Chu Feng, terrified of an accident that would turn the event into a mockery. For days, they had been working tirelessly to clean up Chu Feng's image, vigorously promoting him as the benevolent and upright "God King Chu" to erase his past misdeeds.

"Elder Yan Qing of the Corpse Clan arrives with his disciples."

This was an old acquaintance. The last time he came to the divine hall to retrieve Yan Luo, their clan's prodigy, it was this same elder. Now he had returned, and his expression was far from pleasant.

After all, Yan Luo remained unresponsive, practically like a dead man.

However, having received an invitation, and knowing that the Great Dream Pure Land, when at its peak, genuinely ranked as high as eleventh, just behind the top ten, the Corpse Clan could not be overly rude.

Therefore, the Corpse Clan felt it inappropriate to be overly disrespectful on such a joyous occasion.

"Greetings, senior," Chu Feng said with a smile, offering a respectful bow.

"Hmm, you're a good young man, much stronger than that little brat Wu Lun!" Yan Qing nodded, his face impassive, offering a grimace that barely resembled a smile.

"Wu Lun is also excellent; he's principled and embodies integrity. I've always admired his cultivation and character. You could say we became friends through our encounters," Chu Feng declared, not a hint of blush on his face, nor a tremor in his voice.

Beside him, not only Ying Xiaoxiao, Yuan Yuan, and the restrained Ying Wudi, but even the notoriously thick-skinned Ouyang Feng couldn't help but get goosebumps.

"Does he have any shame left?" Even Zi Luan, who was usually intimidated by Chu Feng, rolled her eyes, desperately wanting to voice that thought.

"What is Wu Lun, anyway? Hmph!" Yan Qing scoffed, clearly indignant.

"Old man, watch your tongue!" the elders of the Quasi-Immortal Clan arrived, a full five of them, a significant gesture of respect towards the Great Dream Pure Land. Hearing Yan Qing's words, they were visibly displeased and collectively fixed their gaze on him.

The Quasi-Immortal Clan was exceedingly powerful. Apart from a slight wariness of the Dao and Buddhist clans, they feared no one and could easily overwhelm any other force. After all, their ranking among the top three in the universe was no mere boast.

Yan Qing wanted to retort, but seeing the five elders standing together, he immediately lowered his head. Challenging them would surely result in heavy losses, and openly insulting someone else's son-in-law would definitely lead to a beating.

"Brother Chu Feng, you are truly excellent," an elder of the Quasi-Immortal Clan said with a broad smile, patting Chu Feng's shoulder.

Chu Feng smiled and replied, "Senior, your judgment of character is equally sharp. Wu Lun is truly a dragon among men, a peerless genius rarely seen in a hundred generations. I have an excellent impression of him; though we once clashed, we developed a mutual admiration. I believe we are destined to become the best of friends."

Beside him, not only Ying Xiaoxiao, Yuan Yuan, and the restrained Ying Wudi, but even the notoriously thick-skinned Ouyang Feng couldn't help but get goosebumps.

"Does he have any shame left?" Even Zi Luan, who was usually intimidated by Chu Feng, rolled her eyes, desperately wanting to voice that thought.

"Haha, my virtuous nephew, you are indeed remarkable! I believe you and Wu Lun will become true confidants. The future belongs to both of you: the righteous Wheel King, and the benevolent and pure God King Chu!"

Undoubtedly, the elders of the Quasi-Immortal Clan were delighted. To have their chosen son-in-law praised by a renowned arch-devil naturally brought them great satisfaction.

As for describing Chu Feng as benevolent and pure-hearted, that was entirely against their conscience. It was merely polite flattery in such a setting, intended to save face for both the Great Dream Pure Land and the arch-devil Chu Feng.

However, many surrounding guests were speechless. "Damn it," they thought, "is Arch-devil Chu really trying to whitewash his image, with even these top ten powerful clans in the universe praising him?"

"Distinguished guest from the Buddhist Clan, Master Kuneng, has arrived!"

Someone announced loudly, and the crowd stirred. Five hundred years ago, this Master Kuneng was a prodigious genius, rarely challenged by his contemporaries across the universe, truly one of the greatest.

Alas, despite his arduous seclusion, he had been unable to break through to the Sub-Saint level. Furthermore, ancient ancestor-level figures had determined that, for some reason, he might never reach the Saint-level realm in this lifetime, which was truly a great pity.

Nevertheless, within the Golden Body domain, he was an unparalleled figure!

The Buddhist Clan also showed great respect, sending three elders with substantial gifts, accompanied by numerous disciples, including their Buddhist Son, Shi Hong. Surprisingly, his mental state seemed quite good!

This caused many to gasp in surprise. The Buddhist Clan's heritage was truly profound; just a month prior, Shi Hong had been behaving like an imbecile, and now he had recovered!

It was clear that the Buddhist Clan possessed potent soul medicine, which had helped Shi Hong repair his depleted soul light, enabling his recovery.

"Greetings to all esteemed seniors of the Buddhist Clan," Chu Feng said respectfully, stepping forward under the guidance of several Great Dream Pure Land elders to offer his respects.

Master Kuneng nodded and said, "Excellent! Truly an outstanding human talent. His divine radiance is contained, his bones are like dragons, and his vital energy is like a vast sea. Once unleashed, he could strike the heavens above and shake the underworld below. His future achievements are limitless!"

This was an exceptionally high appraisal, granting significant face to both the Great Dream Pure Land and Chu Feng.

Chu Feng replied humbly and politely, "Senior, you flatter me. This must be Buddhist Son Shi Hong, I presume? At first glance, he appears to be a true Buddha reincarnated. His sacred aura is palpable, his demeanor extraordinary, and his soul light pure. He is truly the pride of the Buddhist Clan, destined to become a great Buddha in the future!"

The three Buddhist elders all smiled and nodded in approval at Chu Feng.

Shi Hong looked at Chu Feng with a peculiar expression and said, "Buddha speaks of destiny. I don't know why, but I feel an immediate kinship with Brother Chu Feng, as if we're old friends."

Ouyang Feng, standing nearby, pursed his lips, wanting to say, "Of course you feel close; Arch-devil Chu stole your rare heavenly treasure, and it's now integrated into his body."

Chu Feng nodded and said, "Me too. Therefore, Brother Shi Hong and I are destined to become confidants. I truly regret that we didn't meet sooner."

He spoke at length, putting the Buddhist Clan members in a good mood and significantly increasing their favorable impression of him. In truth, the Buddhist Clan and Earth had no prior grievances.

Many onlookers were disappointed; they had hoped to witness some friction between the Buddhist Clan and Arch-devil Chu. They hadn't expected the two sides to converse so harmoniously.

"The rumors are indeed inaccurate," a Buddhist elder sighed. "I observe Little Friend Chu Feng to be full of spirituality, possessing a Buddhist charm. Where is there any demonic aura? Let the world slander and despise me as it wishes, but Little Friend's state of mind is astonishing, truly extraordinary."

"I also feel I possess a Buddhist nature," Chu Feng replied, not batting an eyelid. "I've even suspected that I might be the reincarnation of a powerful Buddhist figure."

"Utterly shameless!" Ying Wudi desperately wanted to curse.

In fact, many in the surrounding crowd were equally speechless, seeing how well Arch-devil Chu and the Buddhist Clan got along.

Kuneng nodded and said, "Haha, excellent, excellent, excellent! In the future, Little Friend, you can spend more time with Shi Hong, discussing Dharma and the Dao."

"Distinguished guests from the Primordial Devil Clan have arrived!"

"Distinguished guests from the Demon Clan have arrived!"

"The Heavenly God Clan..."

"The Dao Clan..."

In mere moments, all of the top ten clans arrived. Even the Heavenly God Clan, though no longer among the top ten, made a grand entrance at the end. They harbored immense resentment and deep hostility toward Chu Feng, and their hatred now extended to the Great Dream Pure Land as well.

"Excuse me! How are guests ranked over 250 occupying the spots reserved for the top ten? Can't you see the true top ten clans have arrived?"

The Great Black Ox, Yellow Ox, Old Donkey, and others arrived. This was Chu Feng's entourage of family and friends from Earth, including his parents, who had been grandly welcomed by the Great Dream Pure Land with considerable ceremony and courtesy.

Sensing the Heavenly God Clan's hostility, the Great Black Ox naturally showed no politeness. He promptly shooed their disciples aside, claiming the special seating reserved for the top ten clans.

"See this?" he declared. "I brought the Demon Ancestor's Cauldron. If any of you dare to cause trouble at this wedding, I'll personally go smash the Heavenly God Star and loot it clean!"

The Great Black Ox made his threat, dressed in a black suit, large sunglasses, and chewing on a cigar as thick as a carrot – his perennial, unchanging look.

In fact, when many guests noticed this group, they felt somewhat dazed. Led by the Great Black Ox, followed by Zhou Quan, Old Donkey, Northeast Tiger, and Mastiff King, they all sported the same look, dressed like crime bosses.

Even Chu Feng felt a slight blush of embarrassment. His brothers certainly had unique personalities. Fortunately, his parents hadn't been dressed like that.

Chu Feng's parents were seated in the most prominent positions. After various elaborate ceremonies, the most crucial part of the wedding began: bowing to heaven and earth. Qin Luoyin, looking breathtakingly beautiful, was then escorted out.
