Chapter 3673: Sword Fighting Across the Realm (12)

She felt so angry.

Ning Shu spoke up, "Not only is Situ Xun the cult leader of the demonic cult, do you know whose property the brothel that captured you previously belonged to? It was the demonic cult's property."

Qin Nianzhi's body trembled. She turned around and looked at Ning Shu. "What do you mean? Are you saying Situ Xun ordered those people to capture me, and to humiliate me like that?"

"I didn't say these things in front of Master. I didn't want Master to worry. I also do not know if this matter was ordered by Situ Xun. However, Situ Xun is indeed a very dangerous person. You cannot continue associating with him.

"Analyzing from all the current circumstances, he must have intentionally approached you and used a fake identity to mingle with you."

Ning Shu ignored Qin Nianzhi's increasingly pale face and continued, "What purpose do you think he has?"

Qin Nianzhi's heart was currently in a chaotic mess. The moment she thought of the alluring and interesting Situ Xun, she felt both miserable and resentful. This was the first time she had such romantic feelings for someone, yet the other party was from the demonic cult, and had even approached her with a purpose.

"Why are you telling me all this?" Qin Nianzhi was angry that Ning Shu was telling her these things. "Eldest Senior Brother, can we just not get married right now? My heart is a chaotic mess right now. Rest assured, I will marry you, just not right now."

Qin Nianzhi felt the world was dark. She was heartbroken and in great pain.

Ning Shu said indifferently, "The invitations have already been sent out. In three days, the various sects and schools will come to attend the wedding banquet. This concerns the reputation of Wanjian Manor, Master's reputation, yours, and mine. You do not want Wanjian Manor to be reduced to a laughingstock in the martial world, do you?"

"I…" Before Qin Nianzhi could finish speaking, her tears fell first. "Senior Brother, I am not ready yet. I am not ready to get married yet."

"We are a betrothed couple. We will become husband and wife sooner or later. After so many years of preparation, you are still not ready?"

As if. She simply didn’t want to get married.

"Senior Brother, my heart hurts. My heart hurts so much," Qin Nianzhi said while crying. Then, she apologized to Ning Shu again. "Senior Brother, I am sorry. I am sorry."

I am the one who should be hurting, right?

Ning Shu remained entirely indifferent to Qin Nianzhi's tears. "Junior Sister, rest well, and wait to get married in three days."

Ning Shu would absolutely not let her go because her heart ached for Qin Nianzhi, only to be fed poison by Father Qin and suffer heart-tearing, lung-splitting pain.

"Eldest Senior Brother…" Qin Nianzhi stared blankly at Ning Shu, never expecting Ning Shu to be so indifferent. "Eldest Senior Brother, you have changed."

"You have changed too."

Ning Shu exited the room, and the guards closed the door.

The sound of Qin Nianzhi crying rang out from within the room. Ning Shu spoke to Qin Nianzhi through the window, "Junior Sister, I will treat you well."

Qin Nianzhi continued crying.

In the days that followed, Qin Nianzhi went on a hunger strike. If they didn't let her out, she wouldn't eat.

Father Qin's heart was set this time. No matter how much Qin Nianzhi fussed, it couldn't change the outcome. She was still getting married in three days.

Ning Shu also ignored her and simply cultivated when she was supposed to cultivate.

The Qin Nianzhi who used to be the group's darling had now fallen into a situation where no one paid attention to her.

Qin Nianzhi was starving and lying on the bed, but surprisingly, no one paid her any attention. Ning Shu saw that the time was about right and felt she should go pay attention to her for a bit.

Otherwise, her father-in-law would be dissatisfied.

She’s my daughter, and you actually do not dote on her? I can ignore her, but you actually have the heart to let her go hungry?

Therefore, Ning Shu carried some green vegetables and light porridge to go see Qin Nianzhi. She went, but whether Qin Nianzhi ate or not was none of her business.

Of course, Ning Shu also ran to Father Qin and said, "Master, how about we just forget about the marriage? Junior Sister does not want to get married right now. She is not even eating now. My heart hurts watching her."

"No. All the sects and schools know about your marriage now, so we cannot just drop it. She is hurting now, but in the future, she will know that I did it for her own good, and that you are the man she can entrust her entire life to." Father Qin shook his head and spoke. It seemed he didn’t intend to compromise in the slightest.

Ning Shu wore a face full of helplessness.

Three days later, Qin Nianzhi was dressed in wedding clothes, ready to perform the wedding bows.

Wanjian Manor was bustling with excitement. The orthodox sects and schools all brought generous gifts to attend the wedding banquet. Wearing a bright red robe, Ning Shu stood at the door receiving guests, her face full of smiles.

Seeing a signal flare shoot up in the direction of the back mountain, Ning Shu smiled and said to Father Qin, "Master, I am going to take a look elsewhere."

"Hmm, go ahead." Father Qin was also dressed very festively today, with a smile hanging on his face.

Ning Shu went to the bride's room. Sure enough, Qin Nianzhi was no longer in the room. She’d run off to the rear mountain of Wanjian Manor.

Ning Shu let out a ‘hehe’ and said nothing. She carried her sword and headed towards the rear mountain.

In the storyline, Chong Xuefeng let Qin Nianzhi go and was drugged by Father Qin, forcing Qin Nianzhi to return and get married. Chong Xuefeng's combat power was cut in half, and he was defeated. Situ Xun then used Chong Xuefeng's life to threaten Qin Nianzhi into leaving with him.

It was still unknown at who would die this time.

In the mountain forest, a woman wearing wedding clothes shouted angrily at a man, "You are someone from the demonic cult. You lied to me."

Situ Xun nodded. "I am from the demonic cult, and now I want you to come with me. I like you, you are my person. Come with me."

"No, I am about to get married, and besides, you lied to me."

Qin Nianzhi's heart was a chaotic mess. She felt the joy of seeing Situ Xun, the anger of being deceived, and the brothel incident was like a fishbone stuck in her throat—she wanted to ask but couldn't bring herself to do so.

Did Situ Xun order those people to do that to her?

"Do you not like me? Do you dare say you have absolutely no feelings for me in your heart?" Situ Xun's face carried a self-satisfied certainty. He was certain that Qin Nianzhi had affection for him.

This demon. Where was her underling little brother from before? The big bad wolf had revealed his true colors, making Qin Nianzhi feel immense despair, as she did have feelings for Situ Xun.

"Then come with me." Situ Xun reached out his hand to pull Qin Nianzhi.

Qin Nianzhi threw off his hand and retreated two steps. "You liar, liar."

"Brother Situ, you are not walking the orthodox path, and ran to this hidden nook to see my wife?" Ning Shu walked out from the forest. She wore crimson clothes, which made her face look like flawless jade.

Seeing Ning Shu appear, Situ Xun curled the corners of his mouth. "Brother Xuefeng, I have come to take away my wife, my lover."

Situ Xun grabbed Qin Nianzhi's hand, lowered his head to kiss the back of Qin Nianzhi's hand, and even looked at Qin Nianzhi with lingering affection. It made Qin Nianzhi's heart pound like thunder while also feeling ashamed and embarrassed. She tried to pull her hand away, but he was gripping it tightly.

Ning Shu: …

Fuck, I will kill you, I will kill you!

Ning Shu's expression turned cold. "If you are here to attend the wedding banquet, I welcome you. But for you to act like this is going too far. Your wife is not here. Only my wife is here, Cult Leader."

"Come with me, otherwise I will kill him," Situ Xun pointed at Ning Shu and said with an evil smile on his face.

"No, I am going to marry my senior brother. Besides, you are a liar, and I never want to see you again," Qin Nianzhi shouted directly.

Situ Xun waved his hand, and many people from the demonic cult appeared in the surroundings. From their auras, these people were all experts.
