Chapter 774 Liao Family’s Wedding (15)

Even though Ling Tian had been sent flying, no one was able to see what had caused it.

However, before anyone had time to say anything, there was a sword that suddenly fell from the sky in front of Lin Fan. As the sword landed on the ground in front of him, Bing Jun was sent flying back as all the icicles surrounding him shattered.

Bing Jun retreated a few meters back before landing. As soon as he landed, he narrowed his eyes to look at the sword that had fallen in front of him.

This sword, the aura that was coming from it definitely wasn't normal. It was an aura that seemed to exceed the upper limit of this world…

If that were the case, then the owner of this sword should be…

Before he could have more thoughts on this matter, there was a person that landed on the sword that was inserted into the ground.

This person was wearing completely black clothing and had covered his face with a hood, so no one could see what he really looked like, but the pressure that he released could not be underestimated. This was an aura that gave off a peerless feeling, this was an aura that made it seem like he could take on the entire world.

At the very least, it wasn't something that anyone here could deal with.

But for Bing Jun and Huo Fei, his appearance had the greatest shock on them. That was because they could feel something familiar with this aura, it was something that they had felt before many times, but they didn't want to believe it since it wasn't something that should appear in this kind of lower realm.

However, no matter how they wanted to deny it, it was impossible for them to deny what was standing in front of them.

After a long period of silence, Bing Jun said in a cold and serious voice, "Who are you?"

Without saying a thing, Huo Fei had already moved to Bing Jun's side and looked like he was prepared to attack at any moment.

This was completely different from the personality that he showed before which also proved just how serious they were taking this. This also showed just how dangerous this person in front of them was…

The black cloaked person didn't say anything, he just turned to look at Lin Fan.

After staring at Lin Fan in silence for a bit, which made the situation even more tense, he gave a nod before turning back to face Bing Jun and Huo Fei.

In a deep voice, he said, "How about we end this matter here today? I think neither you nor I want to take this matter any further."

Bing Jun and Huo Fei both knitted their brows, looking like they had been completely caught off guard. They were almost certain that this person was here to protect Lin Fan and if he was, he would make sure that they wouldn't be able to bother Lin Fan in the future.

The only way to do that was to kill them all.

That was what they had been certain would happen, but now it seemed like that wasn't the case…

Was he really just here to end this matter here?

But even if that was the case, Bing Jun couldn't accept it. After all, if he were to end matters here, that would still mean that his wedding would be cancelled.

His bottom line was that as long as he could marry Lin Xue, he could accept any compromise. However, to end things here now was going against that bottom line.

Huo Fei had relaxed for a second before turning to look at Bing Jun since he knew that it was almost impossible for Bing Jun to accept this compromise. The key word there was "almost".

That was because while they were given free reign of this mission, they still had a mission in the end. If he did anything that went against the mission, then he would be punished after they returned.

The appearance of this unknown black cloaked person clearly went against that mission.

If they were to fight this black cloaked man, their identities would be revealed and it wasn't even certain if they could win…

So it was better to accept this compromise and endure. They would endure and get what they wanted another day.

The only thing that Huo Fei had a headache about was how he was going to convince Bing Jun to stand down. If it really came to a worst case scenario, then…he might even have to fight Bing Jun himself to subdue him…

Bing Jun though just stood there with a dark look on his face for a few seconds before finally giving a sigh and saying, "Let's end things here then."

Huo Fei immediately turned to look at Bing Jun with a shocked look of disbelief. It was almost as if he couldn't believe that the person in front of him was Bing Jun.

But of course, he couldn't be blamed since he knew Bing Jun's personality and his obsession with Lin Xue. He really was a different person if he was accepting a compromise at this time.

After another long pause, the black cloaked figure gave a nod before saying, "Then it'll end here."

With a wave of his hand, there was an unknown force that lifted up Lin Fan and the others. Then before they could understand what happened, the scenery in front of them changed.

In the blink of an eye, the black cloaked figure and Lin Fan's group disappeared from the True Spirit Sect.

Once they were gone, there was only silence that was left behind.

Huo Fei just stood there looking at Bing Jun with a shocked look, as if he still couldn't believe what had happened.

Bing Jun ignored him as he stared at the spot where Lin Xue had been. But he couldn't just keep standing there forever, so after a few minutes, he turned to look at Huo Fei, "What are you looking at? Don't you have other things to do first?"

Huo Fei jolted when he heard this, but then he asked, "Who are you? Are you still Bing Jun?"

Bing Jun gave a cold snort and said, "Who do you think I am if I'm not me?"

Huo Fei was stunned again, but then he gave a chuckle and said, "Well, you seemed a bit too different for me to believe that it was you. Can you blame me?"

Bing Jun gave another cold snort before saying, "Take care of what you need to do. With that person's appearance, it means that there's another variable added to the plan that we need to address." Then his eyes turned sharp as he said, "Find out who that person is and which Stellar Kingdom he comes from…"

Huo Fei didn't joke around this time as he responded with a serious nod and then disappeared.

Bing Jun looked around at the people gathered before turning to Ling Tian and saying, "Take care of it. Nothing happened today, understand?"

Without even waiting for a response for Ling Tian, he just turned and disappeared.

Ling Tian and the other elders of the True Spirit Sect were left there with bitter helpless smiles on their faces. But no matter how they were feeling, the only thing that they could do was take care of this matter as per Bing Jun's orders.

So they turned to face the representatives of the other forces that had gathered.

Still, no matter what they did today, there was no doubt that the True Spirit Sect would lose a lot of prestige today. As well, with four of their elders injured by Lin Fan, their overall power would greatly drop for a while.

If it wasn't for the fact that Bing Jun and Huo Fei were still here to back them, it could even be considered a disaster.

But as for complaining, none of them even had a single thought of doing so.

That was because they knew that the moment that they complained, the ones that would be destroyed first would be them. There was no fury greater than the fury of these two young masters when they were angered…

With his bride stolen, there was no doubt that Bing Jun was in the worst of moods.

Bing Jun was indeed fuming and depressed that his bride had been stolen, but he had been able to keep his reasoning even so. He wanted to marry Lin Xue, but he also wanted to make her happy.

He knew that if he were to go against the black cloaked figure that had appeared today, that wouldn't have been possible.

If he were to fight against the black cloaked man, no matter how it turned out, that would be the end for him.

Regardless of if their plan succeeded or not, he would be blamed for almost messing up the plan.

​ Once he was blamed for this, there was no doubt that his family would immediately throw him away. Without the backing of his family, even if he was an expert in his own right, there was no way for him to give Lin Xue the life that she deserved. Without his family, he really didn't have anything.

His status was one that was given to him by his family and it could be taken away at any time if he messed up.

This was a cold hard fact that he was fully aware of.

It seemed like he would have to start pushing his plan forward to take over the family…

But before that, he would need to finish their plans here.
