Chapter 148 She was definitely forced into it!
Hu was extremely uneasy, yet he still had to echo the gossip of the people around him.
Time passed by, and the banquet began to be served.
Hu Wei was also hungry and started eating, but the more he ate, the more he felt something was wrong.
A moment later, he had a flash of inspiration, picked up the half-eaten rice bowl, and slammed it down on the table.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!!"
He was absolutely certain that Shen Miao had been locked up and forced to marry him!
She still loves me!
Grandpa is so smart. Luckily I came, otherwise Miaomiao would have cried herself to death.
"Are you crazy? You splashed some food juice on me! Pay up!"
"Damn it, I can't take it anymore..."
Halfway through his sentence, Hu Wei suddenly exuded a powerful aura, leaving the young people beside him stunned.
"Ahem, so it's Senior Martial Spirit. Sorry to disturb you..."
"What's so great about you? Watch out, or I'll..."
"Shut up, bro, he might come looking for you tonight..."
……
Several young people nearby retreated in a disheveled state.
Hu Wei snorted coldly, feeling even more satisfied with his own wisdom.
It turns out that these so-called nobles are all bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong. If I had known, I could have taken my horse-slaying sword with me. Luckily, I was quick-witted.
. . .
The little incident on Hu Wei's side naturally seemed insignificant in the vast inner courtyard venue.
Inside the inner hall, after Shen Haisheng gave a passionate introduction and thanked the many guests, the banquet began.
Soon, the banquet ended, and after the dishes were cleared away, the servants began to serve fruit, desserts, and fine wines.
The whole process was very quick, and the Shen family members came out of the inner hall again.
Shen Haisheng announced joyfully, "Ladies and gentlemen! Today is a great day for my Shen family and for Muhua City. Now, I would like to invite you all to witness the formal engagement of my Shen family's eldest daughter and Xu Tianyi, the leader of the Valley God Sect!!"
After he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from below.
Hu Wei also held his breath, his eyes fixed on the main hall.
Then, just as everyone was staring at the main hall, a deafening roar suddenly came from behind the main hall.
The sound was like a thunderbolt, deafening and resounding through the heavens! It seemed as if the entire world was shaken by this enormous sound!
"Boom!!" With the first loud noise, three beams of fire suddenly shot out from the three previously inconspicuous large holes behind the main hall, as swiftly and fiercely as fire dragons emerging from the sea.
Immediately afterwards, a second and a third boom followed, and for a moment, the flames illuminated half the sky.
To the astonishment of everyone present, what shot out of the cave were three enormous cannons! They roared into the sky with boundless power.
Then, it exploded in mid-air with a bang, instantly bursting into a dazzling and beautiful display of fireworks.
The fireworks resembled blooming flowers and dazzling shooting stars streaking across the sky.
Red like fire, pink like the sunset, yellow like gold, green like jade... all kinds of colors intertwine to form a breathtaking picture.
"My God! What is this! A Heavenly Cannon?"
"Is this the firearm used by the Shen family patriarch to kill the god?"
"Unbelievable! My ears are about to go deaf. If this were to hit me, even a Grandmaster wouldn't be able to withstand it!"
"That's right! I knew it! The Shen family, with its thousand-year history, must be extraordinary!"
"What a waste! If it were used for the army, there wouldn't be so many mutinous soldiers and rebels!"
"Holy crap, all I can say is holy crap, my Dao Heart is shattered, what's the point of cultivating now?"
"Idiots, shut up! This cannon is incredibly powerful, but it's absolutely impossible for it to hit a Grandmaster!"
"What if someone disregards their own life and death to entangle a Grandmaster...?"
"Heh, are you kidding? If a Grandmaster wants to leave, who can stop him?"
Hu Wei was deeply shocked as he listened to the group's discussion.
He was somewhat annoyed. The Shen family clearly possessed such power. If they used it in Yunzhou, which allied army of grassland tribes would dare to come? Damn old man, he looks down on people. If the Shen family had helped me with all their might, why wouldn't I dare to even touch Zhao Yi!
……
There was a lot of discussion in the audience.
Inside the main hall, Yue Shan was also trembling with fear.
Ji Canghai was startled just now; his strong sense of danger almost made him want to run away.
Shen Haisheng was very pleased with everyone's surprise, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Then, fireworks filled the sky, accompanied by colorful ribbons.
At the same time, five figures in the air slowly descended on a large flying vehicle.
(This thing is the same box as Hardy's, but it's bigger and you can step on it. Its energy comes from true qi and divine gunpowder.)
Everyone was amazed by this novel way of entering.
After the five landed in the main hall, the aircraft quickly flew away into the distance and was then caught and recovered by the Iron Guards.
What came into view were Xu Tianyi, Gu Qinghan, Ning Hongye, Ji Yingying, and Shen Miao.
Upon closer inspection, Hu Wei was surprised to find that he didn't see Shen Miao at first glance.
He began to have doubts. Had he come to the wrong place? Could there be another Shen Miao in the Shen family?
The crowd was somewhat noisy.
"What a perfect couple..."
"Oh, is this Miss Shen?"
"Don't talk nonsense, isn't this the eldest princess? I saw her when I was doing business in the Northwest..."
"So beautiful, all four of them are so beautiful! Is Xu Tianyi, the leader of the Valley God Sect, so young and so blessed?"
"That's right, our leader is not only a peak Grandmaster, but also only twenty-one years old. He is fair in his dealings and has saved countless lives!"
"Although I've never been there, I've heard that he led the team that successfully controlled the floods in Leizhou. He's really amazing!"
"That's right, it seems he's the consort of the eldest princess. Is this the eldest princess? But it seems His Majesty doesn't have any princesses..."
"Shh, this is the Crown Prince's daughter, the daughter of the Kunlun demoness..."
"What! Is the Shen family planning to pledge allegiance to the Crown Prince...?"
"Shut up, all of you. What can we do if that big shot wants to do something? Didn't you see those three Heavenly Cannons? Do you want to get hit by one?"
"That's true, that's true, Leizhou is probably going to be in chaos again..."
Amidst the constant chatter, Hu Wei's mind was in complete chaos.
"The Shen family is actually colluding with the rebel king to depose the crown prince? Yue Shan has also rebelled?"
He looked incredulous, but what he found even more unacceptable was...
"He already has three wives, such a licentious and lustful man, and the Shen family actually wants to marry Miaomiao to him as a concubine!!"
"Why?!"
Extremely unwilling, he stared intently at the main hall square.
A moment later, Shen Haisheng introduced, "This is Xu Tianyi, the leader of the Valley God Sect. Next to him is his wife, the daughter of the Crown Prince of the Wuji Empire, the Eldest Princess."
(The title "Eldest Princess" is a form of address, similar to a name like "Princess Gaoyang," and does not require addressing the princess by her given name.)
Behind him are his other two wives, whose identities are currently kept secret, but they are no less important than my Shen family's legitimate daughter.
Today, my Shen family is marrying our eldest daughter, Shen Miao, to Xu Tianyi as his secondary wife. We respectfully request Your Highness to observe the proper rites!
Gu Qinghan was also a little nervous at this moment, but she was more happy than nervous. She turned her head and glanced at Xu Tianyi.
After exchanging a smile, the two slowly stepped back, and behind them, a girl wearing a silver hair ornament that covered her face slowly stepped forward.
Hu Wei's heart skipped a beat
"This is Shen Miao!! It's definitely her!! Even if I couldn't see her face clearly, I wouldn't mistake her!!"
He watched this scene with excitement, repeatedly telling himself...
"She must have been forced into it!!"
