Sword Among Us Chapter 1071 - Silver Wolf, You Bastard

Chapter 1071: “Silver Wolf, You Bastard”

There were more than one hundred thousand Chinese heroes who came from everywhere. They stepped on the red carpet that led from the port of Lake Tai to Mantuo Villa with great excitement. The red carpet that stretched for dozens of miles allowed them to understand what it meant to be extravagant and what it meant to display a person’s splendor. At the same time, they also saw Mu Clan’s strong charisma. There were plenty of people around, and the dense group stretched out to dozens of miles away from the port. More than one million people rushed over from everywhere in the Chinese server to attend this wedding of the century. In fact, something like this was unprecedented.
In fact, there were some foreign players who had fair skin and blue skin in the crowd.
Compared to the Chinese players, these foreign players, who obviously came from elsewhere, were so shocked that they could not possibly be shocked even further. When they walked on the red carpet, they were so cautious that they looked as if they were on the Walk of Fame in Hollywood.
“This might be the most expensive and lavish red carpet I’ve ever walked on in my life!”
“Even the president cannot possibly mobilize a parade of tens of thousands of people and more than one million people to come forward as an audience…”
“Oh, goodness!”
“Look at those immortals. They’re so graceful, and I can even smell their fragrance. This is something even Ultimate Hall doesn’t have!”
“This is the Chinese plains!”
“It’s no wonder why these rumors kept circulating around the internet, saying that we would never be able to experience the real world of martial artists if we didn’t come to the Chinese plains. It’s worth it that we’ve spent wandering about like vagabonds on the sea for half a month. All this… is too magnificent. It’s too shocking! I don’t even know what sort of good words I should use to describe these things anymore.”
“Once the wedding ends, I’m going to paint all that I saw and heard and put it in my safe so that I can look back on this event in the future. It’ll definitely be a very interesting page in my life!”
“Let’s go. We mustn’t miss the grand spectacle the wedding is definitely going to present to us.”
The Mu Clan members sent away the foreign players with stern expressions and calm gazes. They watched them walk on the red carpet, and their hearts were filled with endless pride. At the same time, they also sized up all these unfamiliar faces in the crowd.
They were not just there as a parade to escort the bride and bridegroom, they were also there to protect the red carpet. Before the wedding was over, no one was allowed to destroy the achievement they spent countless blood, sweat, and tears to make. To others, this might just be a beautiful experience, but to them, who were the people behind the scenes, they were the creators of the event, and everything in the event was theirs.
They would not allow anyone to threaten the red carpet.
*****
When Happy and Xu Xin’s carriage arrived in Mantuo Villa, a grand door had already been temporarily set up at the port over there. The huge Chinese character 囍 (double happiness) was placed on top of the door, and under it was a huge cauldron.
“The bride and bridegroom has appeared!”
A person Happy absolutely did not expect to be doing this stood at the port to serve as the emcee, and he was all smiles.
“Open the lid! Light up the fire!”
As a loud whoosh rose, the lid was lifted by a Mu Clan member who rushed past him. Crackling flames rose from the cauldron.
From the moment the person moved past him, Happy was already able to recognize him. It was Thunderous Battle!
Once he lifted the lid, he quickly went into the crowd. After a few seconds, he revealed an excited and expectant face, along with an honest smile.
He was a middle-aged man who was already married, and yet he went to snatch this task. He even looked as if he was worried someone would discover him. It made him look a little ridiculous.
Even though she had a red covering over her head, Happy was able to sense Xu Xin showing great teamwork with him by turning her head to face him. They smiled at each other.
Wandering Know-it-all arrived in front of the carriage with a grin and stared at Happy. “Congratulations, Happy!”
“Didn’t you say that you won’t get out of Beijing? You broke your own vow today, and you’re going to be real busy in the future.”
“Hehe.” Wandering Know-it-all cackled. Naturally, he knew what Happy meant when he said those words. His title, which he was very proud about, had a transcendent status in the Chinese server, but today, he broke his vow and got out of Beijing for Happy, and he even served as the emcee. Next time, if someone he was familiar with invited him to be an emcee again, it might be very difficult for him to refuse it.
“Don’t worry, as long as those people can make their wedding to be as lively as this one and put on a spectacle as grand as yours, I will definitely leave Beijing willingly to work for them.”
Happy was immediately rendered speechless.
Wandering Know-it-all’s words were really vicious…
There were only a handful of people in the Chinese server who had the right to put on such a spectacle today. Because of it, Wandering Know-it-all had actually used the glory Happy enjoyed today to refuse everyone’s invitation, and he could even do it with a legitimate reason.
Both said nothing, but just looked at each other and smiled.
Wandering Know-it-all schooled his expression and shouted loudly, “Bridegroom, please carry the bride down from the carriage! Once you jump over the fire basin, you will enjoy prosperity, be in love with each other forever, and hold each other’s hands until your hair turns white!”
*****
At that moment, the Chinese heroes who followed behind them had already arrived at the bank through the ships Mu Clan had spontaneously assigned for them.
The group of players who were specially tasked to film the wedding eagerly went to the closest spot to the wedding, and they continued to film the wedding which had yet to end behind the sentry line that the Mu Clan members had formed.
When they saw Wandering Know-it-all, many people could not hold back from gasping in amazement once more!
“Wandering Know-it-all personally came over here to be the emcee…”
“Whew!”
“This is big news!”
“That’s nothing. They’ve always shared a good relationship with each other. I’d find it strange if Wandering Know-it-all didn’t appear. Look at the honored guests over there. There’s Wind Void, Phantasmal Shadow, Night Rain Follows Wind, and some other sect masters. All of them have arrived…”
“Urk… the sect masters of the four great sects are here. This is truly the grandest wedding of the century in the Chinese server. No one will be able to top this in the future…”
“Yeah.”
More people arrived at Mantuo Villa.
“Look! The bridegroom is carrying the bride…”
“Is that huge cauldron the brazier? What the heck?! Who exactly made this practical joke? That’s a huge brazier! How are the people who don’t know martial arts supposed to jump over?!”
Someone in the crowd cried out in an exaggerated fashion.
Whoosh!
While countless people craned their necks to wait, Happy readily carried the bride on his back. He did not even bend his knees and just rose into the air lightly. Then, he glided over the brazier slowly.
When he reached the top, a clear voice suddenly rose in the air. “Happy, you didn’t take down the Ruyi jade on the door head, and without it, you can’t remove the head covering from the bride’s head.”
The bridegroom froze a little in the air.
At that moment, he had already shot past the door head…
But with a speed as fast as lightning, the heroic Happy dressed in red suddenly raised his hand and seized the air behind him!
Whoosh!
Before the group could react, the large flower hanging at the door head was seized by an invisible power, and it was dragged into Happy’s hands.
“Silver Wolf, you bastard! How could you set me up?!”
Happy’s exasperated shout caused multiple people in the area to be shocked.
“Who would have the guts to set up the clan master of Mu Clan?”
Then, they saw a Ruyi jade appearing in the red flower in Happy’s hands, and when they thought about the name Happy shouted, they immediately had their question answered. They knew that this was definitely the core members of Mu Clan playing a small prank on their clan master.
Quite a number of foreigners looked surprised.
“What’s that thing he’s holding?”
“A Ruyi jade.”
There was someone who was rather experienced in this sort of event, and he put on a reserved but knowing smile.
“Ruyi jade? The name sure is pleasant. What is its use?” The foreigner, naturally, did not understand.
“The Mu Clan members prepared it for their clan masters. It serves as a good luck charm for the wielder to succeed in everything he or she does. Now, it should be the thing used to lift the bride’s head covering.”
Many people in the group already had their question answered at that moment, and they understood that this was a small, thrilling segment Mu Clan prepared for the bridegroom.
However, to Happy, who had Dragon Capture, he could easily get over this small segment. It was just that he was a little frightened when he heard this as he was flying over.
At the moment he landed on the ground, countless Mu Clan members instantly clapped and cheered. The sounds they made were as loud as thunder.
Many of the players watching by the side had knowing smiles appear on their faces because of the small, unconventional accident. They, too, shouted loudly and clapped.
The lively atmosphere at Mantuo Villa instantly shocked those who were still calmly moving to Mantuo Villa.
They knew that they must have missed something, and many people quickly sped up. They even used their lightness skills to rush over.
If there were too many people, the port would definitely not fit them.
Right then, a lot of them finally understood why Mu Clan decided to move along with the wedding ceremony without stopping to wait for the rest and went straight to making the bridegroom jump over the brazier, because it was impossible for them to wait for even more people to come.
Once Happy jumped over the brazier, he stepped on the fragrant petals that scattered down everywhere from the sky. Then, the bridegroom carried the bride on his back to enter a sea of lanterns while the parade escorted them.
The scenery at Mantuo Villa had always been outstanding. It was like paradise on earth, and once it was carefully decorated by the people, it had now turned into a sea of lanterns. The rails, roofs, and treetops were filled with lanterns. They were exquisite, beautiful, sone with a red light, and gave off a magnanimous air. The Chinese character 囍 was seen stuck on the front of the lanterns. They were incredibly eye-catching, and they did not affect the beauty of the lanterns. The people felt a warmth in their chests, as if they had walked into their own courtyards.
Countless people chasing after the bridegroom and bride were soon attracted by the scenery around them.
The parade moved while intersecting with each other.
The people also moved.
Many people quickly noticed a reality that caused them to be speechless. They lost sight of the main characters because of the lanterns and the beautiful scenery!
The bridegroom and the bride disappeared.
Many people wanted to head into Mantuo Villa, but they were immediately told by the Mu Clan members that the bridegroom and bride had headed to the place where the wedding was to be held, and if they wanted to walk on this winding path, they would need at least half an hour before they could fully admired everything.
“Is there a shortcut?”
“There’s a piece of flat land on the mountain behind Mantuo Villa. You will reach it if you walk a few miles west. You just need to follow along the red carpet, and you will reach it.
“We’ve set up a banquet over there.”
The crowd quickly changed directions.
They did not come here to admire the lanterns, but to observe the wedding of the century. They could not afford to miss anything else!
The news spread quickly, and the situation of the people admiring Mantuo Villa finally disappeared.
*****
The flat ground on the mountain behind Mantuo Villa was originally deserted.
But now, after the Mu Clan members decorated it, it turned into a red sea. Not only was the place covered in red carpets and petals, there was even a huge platform made of white jade at the center. It was like a bit of green in a sea of flowers, and it was incredibly eye-catching.
As the crowd entered, the originally empty flat land on the mountain behind Mantuo Villa was swiftly filled with people.
Wandering Know-it-all was escorted here beforehand. He stood on the white jade platform, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he could not help but have his eyebrows twitch.
Even though he knew that people from all over the place would definitely come over to congratulate Happy, since the clan master of Mu Clan was about to get married, and he also knew that it would be very lively, but there were just a few too many people.
In less than ten minutes, most of the wedding scene, which would accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, was already occupied. The area near the white jade platform was still rather empty, but the other places only allowed a space enough for others to stand. It was difficult for them to even move.
Yet countless people just craned their necks and looked. They did not show any signs of agitation or impatience.
When he saw this, Wandering Know-it-all exchanged a glance with Silver Wolf—he was in charge of protecting him—and Silver Wolf nodded. A loud and sonorous voice traveled out vigorously everywhere from the white jade platform.
“Set the banquet!”
In an instant, the aroma of wine spilled out from among the tightly packed crowd.
