Wang Hu clearly remembered that Wang Yue often bullied him when he was young. However, now that he had become stronger, he did not care about the things that happened when he was young. However, seeing Wang Yue’s respectful attitude still made him feel a little pleased, recalling his master’s teachings, he quickly buried this emotion in the bottom of his heart.
“Immortal Master Wang…”
The villagers that he was familiar with in the past knelt down respectfully towards Wang Hu.
Wang Hu naturally would not be uncomfortable with their bows. Many of these people had bullied him in the past.
Wang Hu swept his calm gaze over and his mouth moved slightly. “Get up.”
No one dared to disobey him.
He looked around and asked softly, “Where is Wang Juan?”
Wang Juan was a girl that Wang Hu had liked since he was young. Because Wang Hu’s father passed away since he was young, only left his mother who had painstakingly raised him up. The Wang Juan family did not agree on their marriage. Moreover, they were still young at that time, the two of them had only made a promise to become husband and wife when they grew up.
However, in the eyes of adults, that was just a child’s joke and could not be taken seriously.
However, Wang Hu had always remembered his promise. This was also one of the reasons why he persisted in cultivating despite his extremely poor talent. Now that he had returned from cultivating, he naturally had to fulfil his promise.
When they heard the name Wang Juan, they naturally thought of the things that happened when Wang Hu and Wang Juan were young. Initially, they had thought that the promise would be forgotten when they grew up. However, they didn’t expect that Wang Hu would still remember it.
If it had been three days ago, they might have been very happy about it. After all, Wang Hu was an immortal in their eyes, but now it is different, because Wang Juan had just married.
The reason why each of them did not dare to answer Wang Hu’s question was mainly because they were worried that Wang Hu’s temperament had changed greatly over the years. In his fury, he would snatch and kill them all.
For cultivators, killing them was just a matter of a snap of the fingers.
Seeing that everyone was stammering and didn’t dare to answer, Wang Hu realized that something was wrong. He slightly frowned and said, “I’m asking you all a question.”
These angry words scared everyone to the point that they knelt on the ground and continuously trembled.
“Wang Yue, you speak.”
Wang Hu gently pointed.
Wang Yue’s entire body trembled, as he said with a trembling voice, “Wang… Wang…”
“Quickly say it.”
“Yes, yes. Wang Juan just got married three days ago. She married to the Ye family in town…”
Wang Hu was stunned. Wang Juan had broken her promise?
He felt a big stone pressing on his heart.
Wang Yue seemed to have read Wang Hu’s mind, he continued to explain, “Wang Juan didn’t take the initiative. Because there was a cultivator in the Ye family who had stepped into the path of cultivation, the hedonistic disciple of the Ye family took a fancy to Wang Juan and married her into the family. However, Wang Juan was not the first wife, but only a concubine. But because of the cultivator of the Ye family, the Wang Juan family didn’t dare to oppose… ”
He stopped here. An extremely powerful murderous aura caused his voice to become softer and softer until it disappeared.
Hearing this, Wang Hu also understood.
Wang Juan was forced. Because the Ye family was powerful, she had no choice but to marry into the Ye family.
Therefore, Wang Juan didn’t break her promise. It was just that the external factors made her have no choice but to break it.
Wang Hu’s face was gloomy. Not only did he forcefully marry Wang Juan into the family, but he also made her his concubine.
This matter caused his blood boiled to the maximum.
“B*stard. You all are like Wang Juan’s family, yet just watched her being forcefully married?”
Wang Yue quickly explained, “It’s not that we don’t want to stop it, but we really have no choice. The cultivator of the Ye family is a disciple of the Crossing Immortal sect? If we dare to interfere, I’m afraid they would wipe out the entire village.”
Wang Hu knew this Crossing Immortal sect. When he went out to seek immortality, the first place he went to was the Crossing Immortal sect. At that time, he was even humiliated by the disciples of the sect.
He frowned and said coldly, “If Wang Juan is safe, then everything will be fine. If she is hurt, then don’t blame me for taking out my anger on everyone here.”
At this time, a voice came from the sedan chair, “Little Hu, don’t mess up your faith in Taoism. These are just innocent people.”
Wang Hu paused for a moment, then respectfully replied, “Yes. I will remember it in my heart.”
This scene shocked the villagers. They originally thought that Wang Hu was strong enough, but he was so respectful to the person in the sedan chair. From the way he addressed, it seemed like it was his master.
In an instant, a white-haired old man appeared in their minds.
As a disciple, Wang Hu was already so powerful. Then as his master, how terrifying must he be.
Although they didn’t know Wang Hu’s true realm, but from his aura, he was much more terrifying than that Ye family cultivator.
“Wang Yue, take me to the Ye family. The others, get lost.”
Wang Yue immediately panicked when he heard this. He didn’t want to get involved in this mess, but he swallowed his refusal when he saw Wang Hu’s expression.
“Good, good…”
Wang Yue scrambled to his feet and walked in front of Wang Hu. Meanwhile, the villagers swarmed away, afraid that Wang Hu would vent his anger on them.
“Master, I have some matters to attend to, and it might take some time.”
Xuan Yi didn’t force to leave this village. He knew that this was the heart tribulation of this disciple of his, and this matter definitely couldn’t be delayed.
He just so happened to want to see if there were any talented disciples along the way, as well as some treasures. This little bit of time was not considered a delay to him.
“It doesn’t matter. You just have to settle your matters in peace.”
Hearing Xuan Yi’s words, Wang Hu was reassured because Xuan Yi’s subsequent words were “Just settle your matters in peace.” This also meant that Xuan Yi was in favor of him, and when encountering difficulties, Xuan Yi was also very likely to help him.
This time, he felt even more confident.
Town, Ye family.
Wang Hu followed Wang Yue on his stallion. Along the way, they attracted the attention of countless people.
It wasn’t until they arrived at the Ye family’s entrance that the onlookers gathered around.
Ye family, Ye Xiu.
He was a man close to sixty years old. However, due to his poor talent, he hadn’t stepped onto the path of cultivation. He could only be considered an expert in the secular world.
Originally, the Ye family should only be able to barely survive in the secular world. After all, they were not the only family in the secular world. However, who would have thought that the Ye family would actually produce a clansman with excellent talent.
He had already stepped into the energy condensation stage when he was at twelve years old. Such talent was one of the best even in the various large sects. However, his talent was quickly picked up by the Crossing Immortal sect. The sect elder directly took him in as a disciple, this caused the entire Ye family to become much stronger. Relying on the Crossing Immortal sect, they quickly rose to prominence.
They became the most powerful family within a radius of a few miles. Of course, all of this had to do with the gifted disciple.
After so many years, that disciple had long become the inner sect’s eldest senior brother. Wherever he went, he was respected by countless people.
Under such a background, the younger generation of the Ye family’s disciples slowly became unbridled.
Forced marriage, evil.
Almost all the evil things that could be thought of had been done by them.
