Chapter 38

With something that looked very much like a dango, Itachi moved to a far corner of the ceremony to watch the wedding. Xia Hongyi had left a while after talking to him saying that she still had some things to take care of until the ceremony started.

As time went on more people began to appear in the hall and they all seemed to belong to the high society of this small town. Something Itachi noticed was that many of these people had a look of disgust as if this wedding was a mistake.

"It seems that it's not just ordinary people who have opinions against this wedding, I wonder who the groom is?" He thought as he looked at the people who began to interact with each other.

Itachi was wearing clothes that matched the venue so he didn't end up suffering any kind of prejudice or headaches. In fact, many women who looked in his direction blushed slightly before wondering who the young man was who was standing at a distance.

Some men had nasty expressions but chose not to cause any commotion, after all, this was the wedding between the two most powerful clans in this city, so making a scene would not be a good thing.

...

"Daughter, are you ready?" Xia Hongyi asked with a smile on his face as she looked at her daughter's back which seemed to be a bit lonely.

Xia Qingyue turned slightly as she nodded, her face was covered with a veil, but that didn't stop her from revealing her appearance that could only be described as perfect, she is likely the most beautiful woman in this empire .

Xia Hongyi knew that this marriage had not been taken by his daughter, but he also did not want to break the promise he had made in the past, so he could only sigh as he talked to her.

"Ah! I almost forget. A person from the sect you will be going to is at the wedding, he told me he will take you back when the ceremony is over." Xia Hongyi said with a sigh.

He knew that after his daughter left, it would be very difficult to see her, and for this reason, he was willing to move to a bigger city where he could live as a simple merchant, or maybe he could even have new prospects to grow up.

"Hn!"

With a slight nod Xia Qingyue withdrew from the room she was in, she had already been told by her master that a person would pick her up after the ceremony was over, and for this reason she was a bit displeased, not because her master didn't come to pick her up, but because the one who would pick her up was a man she had never seen in her life and also the only man to be allowed to cultivate in the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace.

"Long Xiao? If he tries anything against me, then I will attack him, even if my mistress punishes me." She thought.

As she walked through the mansion, she felt her heart a little agitated.

"Why is my heart agitated? Since I started cultivating the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace arts this has never happened... And this definitely has nothing to do with the wedding..." Xia Qingyue thought as she placed her left hand on her chest, the image of a young boy appeared in her mind, it was a scene she would never forget in her entire life.

She didn't know why she has been so agitated recently, but she was sure of something, this was not related to the wedding she would have, but to something else that she couldn't explain. And this feeling was getting stronger and stronger.

...

"Don't worry grandfather, I will come with a horse to pick you up." A handsome young man said with a confident smile on his face which earned him the nod of understanding from an old man who was lightly tapping his shoulder.

"In that case, I will go to the ceremony with your aunt, and then we will go to see you get married." The old man said with a smile on his face, he feels that he has rejuvenated a few years by watching his grandson get married.

"Hn!"

The young man nodded as he left the room he was in and headed towards the stable where a beautiful horse was waiting for him.

But as he walked he couldn't stop thinking.

"Why do I feel that something bad will happen today? Could it be that after I, Yun Che, am reincarnated I will encounter another catastrophe?" He thought, but then immediately shook his head as if this was nothing but a bad joke.

There was no way anything could go wrong at this wedding, even without his cultivation, he knew that no one would dare attack him, especially in front of the Xiao and Xia clan elders.

"Anyway, I need to find a way to tidy up my Spirit Veins, otherwise I won't be able to start my cultivation." He thought.

...

Eating something that looked like a dango, Itachi had a neutral expression, he heard some sounds coming from outside the wedding hall, and knew that this was a sign that the ceremony was about to begin, and before he could continue eating his dango, a young man walked on a red carpet.

This young man's clothes were incredibly decorated with dragons, in addition his handsome face had a trace of confidence, but if one looked more closely one would see a trace of arrogance stamped on his face.

From the clothes the young man was wearing and also from where he was walking, Itachi discovered that this young man was precisely the groom who would be marrying Xia Qingyue.

"Why do I feel that there is something strange about this boy?" he thought as he looked at Yun Che.

His eyes moved to Yun Che's neck, and there he saw a necklace tied around his neck, the necklace looked ordinary at a first glance, but Itachi felt that it was much more than that, moreover, the Universe inside his body seemed to have reacted slightly when he looked at the necklace.

"Definitely strange..." He thought.

Another strange thing he noticed, was that Yun Che seemed to have traces of poisoning in his body, but these traces were extremely faint, as if they had already been treated, this showed Itachi that this boy had recently suffered an assassination attempt.

"It is as I imagined, this city really is-"

His thoughts were interrupted, this was because the door of the wedding hall that was closed suddenly opened, as trumpets began to sound signaling the entrance of the bride.
