Dare to Cancel the Engagement? I Will Marry Your Ancestor! - Chapter 7

Chapter 7: The Auspicious Time Has Arrived

“Boom!”

A thunderous sound shook Mo Ling’s courtyard.

Mo Ling, who had just awoken from his training, was startled by the sudden noise, and it took him a moment to come to his senses.

“What the heck? Is someone attacking?”

This was the first thought that crossed Mo Ling’s mind.

Next, he found the situation rather strange.

His courtyard was in the center of the Tianyuan Sect, and even if there was an enemy attack, they shouldn’t be able to reach him here.

After all, in this Northern Cold State, the Tianyuan Sect’s strength was quite decent. Even if the Xingyao Sect attacked, the Tianyuan Sect could hold their ground to some extent.

“Boom!”

As Mo Ling pondered what was going on, another loud noise erupted from the barrier outside his courtyard.

This noise finally infuriated Mo Ling.

“Damn it, do they think I’m a Hello Kitty just because I haven’t shown my power?”

Mo Ling cursed angrily, rolled up his sleeves, and stormed out in rage.

Having perfected three martial arts techniques and almost breaking through his cultivation, with his current combat power, he could take down even a powerful warrior at the master level.

“Whoever dared to attack my courtyard, I’m going to break your bones!”

Mo Ling roared as he charged out of the courtyard.

Just as he reached the front yard, he saw the Second Elder, who had just heard his voice and retracted his spiritual energy, pretending to be calm.

Mo Ling squinted his eyes and appeared in front of the Second Elder, demanding, “Gu Kewai, what are you doing? Why did you attack my courtyard?”

His tone was filled with anger, and it wasn’t hard to guess that if Gu Kewai admitted it, he’d surely get a beating.

Gu Kewai, being wise, immediately denied it with a cheeky grin.

“No, I am your loyal supporter; how could I attack your courtyard?”

Mo Ling knew Gu Kewai was part of his faction and highly admired him; otherwise, he would have already made a move.

However, he still didn’t want to let Gu Kewai off easily. He put on a mischievous smile.

“Not you? Then look around; who else could it be?”

“I… I…” Gu Kewai stammered, unable to come up with a reasonable explanation.

In truth, seeing that it was Gu Kewai, Mo Ling’s anger had already subsided by half.

He just wanted to take this opportunity to tease Gu Kewai a bit. After all, in the original owner’s memory, this old man had always been very strict, overseeing everything Mo Ling did, like a nagging mother.

Since he had inherited everything from the original owner, Mo Ling knew he would have to deal with this old man often and didn’t want to be pestered to death.

That’s why this scene unfolded.

Of course, Mo Ling knew when to stop, so he didn’t make things too difficult for Gu Kewai.

After watching him stammer for a while, Mo Ling asked, “Alright, tell me, why are you here? If you don’t give me a good reason, I’ll pull out your beard.”

Hearing this, Gu Kewai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that the sect master wasn’t holding a grudge.

Immediately, he said, “Sect master, have you forgotten what day it is today?”

“What day is it?” Mo Ling was taken aback and didn’t react immediately.

Gu Kewai widened his eyes and, with a trembling voice, said, “Sect master, don’t tell me you’ve forgotten that today is your wedding day.”

Hearing this, Mo Ling suddenly realized.

“What? I’ve been in seclusion for three days?”

Mo Ling was surprised. He thought he had only been training for a short while but didn’t expect to have been in there for three days.

This didn’t make sense. The first time he practiced the Youyan Long Dance to perfection, it only took one night. How could it take three days this time?

“Yes, today is your wedding day. If you don’t show up, our Tianyun Sect will be in big trouble,” Gu Kewai said anxiously.

On the wedding day, if the groom didn’t show up, it would be a big slap in the face for the bride.

If it were someone else, it would be fine. With Tianyun Sect’s power, a little appeasement would do.

But the other party was the ancestor of the Long family, who was just a step away from breaking through to the master level. If the groom didn’t show up on the wedding day, the whole Tianyun Sect could be in big trouble.

Mo Ling gave an embarrassed smile and scratched his head.

“Elder Gu, how are the wedding preparations going? Is there anything I need to do?”

“Everything is ready. There were some matters that needed your personal decision, but since you haven’t shown up for the past two days, I took the liberty of deciding for you. The welcoming team is ready, just waiting for you, the groom, to show up so we can set off to Tianguang City to greet the bride.”

Gu Kewai didn’t say much else. After saying this, he pulled Mo Ling along.

Mo Ling knew he had been a bit irresponsible, so he didn’t say anything and obediently followed behind, speeding along the way.

Soon, they arrived at the main hall.

The welcoming team had already been prepared. Seeing that it was almost time and the groom still hadn’t appeared, many people had begun to worry.

Now that they saw Mo Ling, the groom, appear, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Sect master, you finally came out of seclusion. It’s getting late; hurry up and change into your wedding clothes, or you’ll miss the auspicious time.”

A middle-aged woman in her fifties came out and handed a set of red wedding clothes to Mo Ling.

Then, without giving Mo Ling a chance to catch his breath, they pushed him into the inner hall and quickly changed him into the wedding clothes.

Half a cup of tea later, after getting dressed and groomed, Mo Ling walked out of the inner hall.

Mo Ling was already very handsome, and now that he was wearing the red wedding clothes, he looked even more dashing.

“Wow… The sect master looks so handsome!”

“Yeah, the sect master looks amazing like this.”

“If only I could be the sect master’s woman, even if it was just a concubine without a title.”

As Mo Ling appeared, many female disciples around him gasped in awe, enchanted by his handsomeness.

Although their voices weren’t loud and were almost drowned out by the noisy environment, they couldn’t escape Mo Ling’s ears.

Listening to their words, a wide grin spread across Mo Ling’s face.

Indeed, he was the most handsome.

Even if he traveled across worlds and was reborn in a different one, he would still be the one to make countless young girls’ hearts flutter.

In high spirits, Mo Ling strode confidently to the front of the bridal escort team and addressed everyone.

“Everyone, the auspicious time has arrived. Let’s set off to greet the bride!”
