Liu Ruyan's wedding was a grand affair for the Liu family. They provided a Ferrari sports car and a mansion in the provincial capital as dowry. A wedding procession of thirty luxury cars was also arranged.
Lu Fan's welcoming party was equally impressive. The Bai family, Jiang Chao, and the Yan family not only sent luxury cars and gifts but also contributed nearly fifty luxury cars to expand the welcoming procession. Nearly a hundred luxury cars, all adorned with fresh flowers and colorful balloons, drove slowly along the streets, immediately drawing countless onlookers to stop and take photos. The convoy instantly became the most spectacular street scene.
Lu Fan's villa was carpeted with red fabric from the main building to the courtyard gate. Firecrackers were set up from the main gate all the way to the village entrance. As the convoy arrived at the village entrance, Liu Ruyan, dressed in her bridal attire, was carried by Lu Fan from the car into a waiting sedan chair. Lu Fan, dressed in the attire of a successful scholar, with a large red flower pinned to his chest, mounted a tall horse also adorned with a red flower.
The procession then transformed into a wedding party of sedan chair bearers and horse riders, accompanied by music. As the firecrackers were lit, the sedan chair slowly moved forward with the sound of the explosions. The noise of firecrackers and gongs attracted people from several surrounding villages to come and watch. No one had ever witnessed such an extravagant wedding. It was indeed a wedding with an eight-bearer sedan chair.
Among the crowd of onlookers, a man in his thirties wearing a baseball cap walked slowly with the crowd, his gaze fixed on Liu Ruyan's sedan chair. This was Guan Xiaocheng, the sole disciple of Tu Tu.
The grand procession arrived at the villa entrance, and the sedan chair came to a halt. Lu Fan also dismounted from his horse.
Zhao Rongrong, dressed in a festive, bright red qipao and holding a large red envelope, was already waiting at the main entrance. As soon as the sedan chair stopped, she stepped forward. A matchmaker approached and lifted the sedan chair curtain. Zhao Rongrong happily handed the large red envelope over.
Immediately, many people gathered to watch the spectacle.
*Bang... Whoosh...* Suddenly, a white smoke shot out from the crowd.
Liu Ruyan's expression changed instantly. With a flick of her finger, a surge of energy scattered the white smoke.
*Swish...*
*Swish...*
Several pairs of eyes quickly focused on the crowd nearby.
Guan Xiaocheng, sensing that things were not going well, quickly tried to push his way out of the crowd.
*Whoosh...* Suddenly, a force from within the crowd grabbed Guan Xiaocheng and lifted him out. He was thrown to the ground with a *thud*. Two people quickly came over, grabbed Guan Xiaocheng, and left.
In just a few dozen seconds, many people hadn't even seen what happened. The wedding continued...
Not far away, Shen Xinyi, among the bridesmaids, looked instantly displeased. She hadn't expected Liu Ruyan's abilities to have grown so much. Not only had she protected herself, but she had also protected Zhao Rongrong.
She also practiced martial arts, and she had practiced the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, but why hadn't she made such rapid progress? Hmph! Lu Fan must have tampered with the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. Damn it! Damn it! They all deserve to die!
"Young Master Fan! How should we deal with that person?" Mo Xiong asked in a low voice.
"That kid uses poison. Be careful, assign more people to watch him, and don't let him escape. Don't disrupt the wedding," Lu Fan said calmly, handing a few detoxification pills to Mo Xiong.
"Brother Fan...!" Li Jingjing came over and whispered a few words into Lu Fan's ear.
Lu Fan's expression immediately turned grim. He took a deep breath to calm himself before nodding faintly.
Liu Ruyan acted as if nothing had happened. She took Zhao Rongrong's large red envelope, called her "Mom," and then, with her head covered by the veil, alighted from the sedan chair.
Throughout the entire process, except for a few powerful individuals who saw what happened, everyone else was bewildered, and then the festive atmosphere took over. They all happily went to drink the wedding wine.
After the wedding ceremony, Lu Fan and Liu Ruyan went to the bridal chamber, changed their clothes, and then came out to toast the guests, seeing off all the attendees. Those who couldn't leave were also arranged accommodation.
"Mo Xiong! Take me to see that person," Lu Fan said with a stern expression.
"Young Master Fan, Young Madam! Please follow me!" Mo Xiong immediately led Lu Fan and Liu Ruyan to a small house at the very back of the villa.
This was the tool shed where all the tools for gardening and landscaping were kept. At this moment, Guan Xiaocheng was also tied up and thrown on the ground.
"Guan Xiaocheng! How much did Shen Xinyi pay you to dare to come and kill my wife? Didn't she tell you that even your master and your martial uncle died by my hand? You came here, and it's a hundred percent suicide?" Lu Fan said with disdain as soon as he entered, looking at Guan Xiaocheng.
"Xiao Fan..." Liu Ruyan was stunned. She didn't understand why Lu Fan would say that Shen Xinyi had instructed Guan Xiaocheng. However, she only managed to utter two words before holding back. She looked at Guan Xiaocheng. Although she was unwilling to believe it, she also wanted to see what Guan Xiaocheng would say.
"Hmph! Of course, I know my master and martial uncle died by your hand, which is why I want to avenge them. If I can't kill you, I'll kill the people around you," Guan Xiaocheng said, glaring at Lu Fan.
"Tsk! I don't believe it. If she didn't give you benefits, would you come knowing it's certain death?" Lu Fan said with a curl of his lip.
"She gave me benefits, but I didn't take them. Kid, I know I'm going to die, what use are benefits! I just want to kill you and avenge my master," Guan Xiaocheng said manfully.
"Is it really Shen Xinyi who told you to do it?" Liu Ruyan asked Guan Xiaocheng, not daring to believe it.
"Don't you already know? Hmph!" Guan Xiaocheng snorted disdainfully and turned his head away.
"Your master wanted to harm me, and he died miserably. Your martial uncle wanted to harm me, and he died even more miserably than your master. You want to harm me now. Although you are very manly, I will make you die a million times worse than them," Lu Fan said with a cold smile. He didn't need an answer. The answer was for Liu Ruyan to hear.
*Whoosh...* The Golden Silkworm Gu worm flew out and instantly burrowed into Guan Xiaocheng's body.
"Ah..." Guan Xiaocheng immediately let out a pig-like scream.
"I won't let the Golden Silkworm Gu kill you. I will let it torment you continuously until your energy is exhausted and you die," Lu Fan said coldly.
"You... kill me! Kill me..." Guan Xiaocheng continued to wail.
Outside the villa, a motorcycle was parked at the foot of a distant mountain. A beautiful figure wearing a helmet alighted from the motorcycle. Faintly hearing Guan Xiaocheng's screams coming from inside the villa, the beautiful figure couldn't help but tremble. It was too damn miserable!
"Xinyi! Why did you do this?" Suddenly, a figure appeared behind her, his voice chillingly cold.
