The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Ling Ziyan put her hands behind her back and walked into the front hall of Shan's mansion, going straight towards Shan Xiongqing and Xu Yuan. The two of them were kneeling on the ground. She just glanced at them without saying a word, then walked past them leisurely and walked into the hall.

Ling Ziyan slowly sat down on the main seat in the middle of the hall, her demeanor showing dignity and composure.

She waved her robe sleeves gently, and although her voice was soft, it carried unquestionable majesty: "Everyone, please stand up."

Her voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for people in the hall to hear clearly, while people outside the hall could hardly hear it clearly.

The palace maid stood at the door and sang loudly: "Stand up——"

Upon hearing the order, everyone kowtowed to express their gratitude, and then slowly stood up, not daring to breathe, and no one dared to look directly at Ling Ziyan's face.

Ling Ziyan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, raised her jade hand lightly, and motioned Huo Gang, who was standing beside her, to come forward.

"Your Highness!" Huo Gang bowed and waited for instructions.

"Don't let my arrival ruin the joy of the wedding banquet. Pass the order down and tell them not to be so restrained." Ling Ziyan ordered in a cold tone.

"Yes, Princess!" Huo Gang responded and retreated, conveying Ling Ziyan's intention to Xu Yuan and Shan Xiongqing.

Upon hearing the order, Xu Yuan took immediate action, directing the musicians to play cheerful music. Together with Shan Xiongqing, he greeted the guests, feasted and chatted, and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

Not long after, one of the protagonists of the wedding banquet finally showed up - Xu Yuan's eldest son Xu Tianming.

If Xu Yuan and Xu Tianming were put together, people who didn't know the situation would never be able to imagine that they were father and son.

Xu Yuan was not good-looking, with a short and thin stature, while Xu Tianming was above average in height, with thick eyebrows and big eyes that were as bright as stars. He had an imposing bearing and was unforgettable at first sight.

Just as Duan Tianyang was looking at Xu Tianming, a petite figure quietly sat down beside him. Turning his head, he saw that it was Shan Xiaochun.

Today is a big wedding day for the Shan family, but she is wearing a white skirt with a light green gauze over it. She does not look festive at all, but rather has a bit of freshness and innocence.

"A Tian, ​​why are you sitting here? I've been looking for you for a long time!" Shan Xiaochun sat next to Duan Tianyang intimately, looking at him with blinking eyes.

Duan Tianyang was wearing a white brocade robe today, which, with his handsome and delicate facial features, made him look like a character walking out of a painting.

Shan Xiaochun suddenly discovered that Duan Tianyang in front of her seemed even more handsome than Xu Tianming, whom she had always admired.

Duan Tianyang smiled at Shan Xiaochun and explained, "It's quiet here with few people, which suits me."

Shan Xiaochun curled her lips slightly and reminded, "Today is my sister and Brother Tianming's engagement party. In a month or two, they will get married."

"Then what? You don't look sad." Duan Tianyang chuckled.

Shan Xiaochun asked in confusion: "Why should I be sad?"

After saying this, she suddenly remembered that she had told Duan Tianyang that she had liked Xu Tianming since she was a child, and she also blamed her sister for stealing her future husband.

Her cheeks flushed, and she waved her hands hastily to explain: "Actually, my feelings for Brother Tianming before were more of a family relationship, not... the kind of love between a man and a woman..."

At the end of her speech, her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, and her heart was beating as fast as a drum.

For some reason, she was surprisingly nervous in front of Duan Tianyang.

Duan Tianyang turned his gaze to Xu Tianming who was chatting and laughing in the crowd, and said with a smile: "Really? He looks pretty good."

Shan Xiaochun added with a smile: "Yes, sister will definitely be very happy in the future."

Just at this moment, another protagonist of the wedding banquet, Shan Xiaofang, appeared. She was wearing a gorgeous red dress and exquisite embroidered shoes. She walked into the hall gracefully under the attention of everyone.

The noisy voices froze in an instant, and everyone stretched their necks at the same time, focusing on the newlyweds who were about to get married.

Xu Tianming turned slowly, his eyes locked on Shan Xiaofang affectionately, then he knelt down, his oath resounding throughout the hall: "Today, witnessed by Her Royal Highness the Princess, I, Xu Tianming, am willing to marry Xiaofang. No matter what happens, we will walk hand in hand, never leave each other, until the end of time!"

Ling Ziyan sat in the main seat, witnessing this scene, with a slight smile on her lips, unable to hide the disappointment in her heart.

On so many nights, she had longed countless times for the person she cared about to make the same vow to her...

However, the reality is only endless regrets...

Just as Shan Xiaofang was about to kneel according to etiquette, a sudden loud noise exploded outside the gate of Shan's mansion.

This sound may be unfamiliar to most people, but to Duan Tianyang, it is very familiar - it is the unique roar of the musket, which is enough to make his muscle memory tense instantly, and it hurts as if an old injury has recurred.

Duan Tianyang closed his eyes, radiated his mental strength, and was aware of every subtle change in his surroundings.

I saw a steel bullet whizzing in from outside the door. Its speed was so fast that it was beyond the limit of the naked eye, but Duan Tianyang could clearly depict its trajectory in the air.

Oh no! The target of this Gundam is most likely Ling Ziyan...

In a flash, Duan Tianyang slapped the table with one hand, and the teacup in front of him flew into the air. He turned his wrist slightly, and with the help of the wind, he threw the teacup out with force.

In a flash, the flying Gundam collided with the teacup in mid-air with a crisp impact. The teacup shattered instantly, but the Gundam did not stop, but deviated from its original trajectory.

The steel bullet penetrated the air and hit the phoenix crown on Ling Ziyan's head. With a dull "puff" sound, the phoenix crown fell down, and Ling Ziyan's waterfall-like hair also fell apart.

This sudden change dumbfounded everyone present. Whether in the lobby or in the hall, everyone was dumbfounded and could not believe what they were seeing.

Huo Gang was the first to recover from his shock. He shouted at the top of his lungs, "There's an assassin! Protect the princess!"

This shout was like a thunderclap, instantly igniting the tranquility in the Shan Mansion.

Outside the courtyard wall, dozens of martial artists disguised as civilians jumped up. They instantly put on their armor and rushed towards the gate with black weapons shining with cold light in their hands, like hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

Outside the hall, the guards who had been on high alert saw this and shouted angrily, tightly grasping their weapons, ready to fight.

Before the martial artists rushed through the gate, a dozen of the guards suddenly defected. They also put on their armor and completed the spirit infusion, but turned their blades towards their comrades beside them.

These rebellious guards waved their weapons wildly and shouted loudly: "The old thief Yi Tian is so incompetent that he passed the throne to an outsider. All the patriots in our Divine Realm should kill the Ling family together!"

This sudden defection caught many guards off guard, and they were chopped down one after another by the rebels around them.

Inside the vestibule, the guards who had been orderly before were now in chaos. They looked at each other, unable to distinguish friend from foe, and just instinctively drew their swords.

The guards at the gate not only have to deal with internal rebellions, but also have to resist the assassins who rush in.

Amid the flashes of swords and sabers, angry shouts could be heard from time to time: "Kill Ling Ziyan! Return the orthodoxy of the Divine Realm to me!"
