125: Shen Lang disrupts the wedding and shows up at the door.
"Madam, is this not good? It's wonderful. From now on, I am no longer bound by those rules. Isn't this great?" Shen Lang said with a smile.
"It's not good! I want my husband! Give him back to me, give him back!" Zhu Qiqi cried out.
Shen Lang flung Zhu Qiqi aside, turned around, and stepped out, leaving Fulong Valley directly.
"The old Shen Lang is dead. You all chose this."
"Now, this Shen Lang is a completely new Shen Lang. Jianghu, here I come..." Shen Lang roared towards the sky.
The sound echoed for a hundred miles as Shen Lang's figure sped toward the Kingdom.
The reason he fell into the Demonic Path was to avenge his brother. Now that he had successfully entered the Demonic Path, his strength had increased.
The first thing he had to do, of course, was to seek revenge.
He wanted to kill everyone in the Duan Family. With his current strength, it would only take him two days to reach the Kingdom.
Along the way, Shen Lang also received news that Prince of Zhennan of Dali, Duan Zhengchun, was taking concubines—and six of them at once.
"Tsk tsk... This Duan Zhengchun truly lives up to his name as the Kingdom's profligate prince. Taking six concubines at once, it's truly enough to make others green with envy."
"Haha, are you jealous? But even if you are, there's nothing you can do. The man has the strength for it."
"What's there to envy? This guy, marrying so many women at once, will die in a woman's bed sooner or later."
"Haven't you heard the saying? If you don't value your 'precious' when you're young, you'll be left staring and weeping when you're old."
"Indulging like this while young, his body will collapse in a few years. When that time comes, tsk tsk... with so many wives and concubines, he might just get his tower 'back-doored' by someone else."
"Haha... true. What normal person could withstand being worn out by so many women?"
Hearing this news, a playful, cold sneer appeared at the corner of Shen Lang's mouth.
He already had a perfect plan to take revenge on Duan Zhengchun.
You like women, don't you? I wonder how you'll feel when you find your women being toyed with by me.
Furthermore, he planned to kill Duan Zhengchun in front of all the world's heroes on the day of his wedding and snatch his women away.
Time passed quickly, and the day of the wedding arrived. Several Jianghu factions came to offer their congratulations upon hearing the news.
Even people from the Great Song's Shaolin Temple had come.
The Kingdom had always maintained ties with the Great Song's Shaolin Temple, so an invitation had been sent to them this time as well.
To Duan Zhengchun's surprise, the Beggars Sect had also sent representatives.
The Duan Clan had originally established their nation through martial arts, so they naturally had many friends within the Martial Forest.
It was soon noon, and the wedding proceeded as scheduled. A line of six brides stood together facing Duan Zhengchun.
With a smile on his face, Duan Zhengchun looked at the women before him, feeling deeply moved.
"First bow to Heaven and Earth..."
"Second bow to the parents..."
"Husband and wife..."
Just as the Master of Ceremonies was about to call for the couple's mutual bow, a voice interrupted him.
"Tsk tsk... For such a grand wedding, Prince Duan didn't even invite an old friend like me. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"
As the voice rang out, a figure dressed in black appeared in the courtyard.
Few present noticed how this black-clad man had appeared; only two people on the scene detected his arrival.
Duan Zhengchun and Li Qiushui.
When he saw the newcomer, surprise flashed across Duan Zhengchun's face.
"Oh? Isn't this Great Hero Shen? How did you end up like this?" Duan Zhengchun asked in astonishment.
Hearing the name 'Great Hero Shen', many present were confused.
Who is Great Hero Shen? Is there such a figure in the Jianghu?
Only a few veterans of the Jianghu knew who the title 'Great Hero Shen' referred to.
"Amitabha. I did not expect that Shen Lang, once known as the number one hero of the Jianghu, would turn out like this," Xuan Nan said in surprise.
"What? He is the Great Hero Shen Lang? How is that possible? This doesn't match the rumors at all."
"Indeed. Rumor has it that Great Hero Shen is a man of integrity and righteousness. How could he look like this? This man is covered in an evil aura; how could he be the hero Shen Lang!"
Li Qiushui's peach-blossom eyes were filled with amusement as she looked at Shen Lang.
She sensed an unusual aura emanating from him.
It was Devilish Qi. Yes, definitely Devilish Qi.
Over the years, she had met all sorts of people in the Jianghu, including martial arts Masters and powerhouses of the Demonic Path.
The aura on Shen Lang was identical to that of the Demonic Path powerhouses she had encountered.
She hadn't expected that the hero who was once so high-spirited would fall into the Demonic Path in his later years. It was quite interesting.
She wondered what could have happened to make such an upright hero turn into a man of the Demonic Path.
Moreover, she wanted to see what would happen next.
Anyone who wasn't a fool could see that Shen Lang had come with ill intent.
"Heh, is this not good? Isn't all of this thanks to you?" Shen Lang looked at Duan Zhengchun with a wicked smile.
"Thanks to me? That's not right, is it? Shouldn't it be because of your grandson?"
"Didn't you become like this because you wanted to avenge your grandson?" Duan Zhengchun said in surprise.
"If you hadn't killed my grandson, none of this would have happened."
"However, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have become like this."
"I feel better than ever now, finally no longer bound by those codes of chivalry and morality."
"From now on, I can do as I please. Those who follow me shall prosper, and those who oppose me shall perish. This feeling is grand," Shen Lang said.
"It seems you have completely fallen into the Demonic Path."
"And it is precisely because you fell into the Demonic Path that your strength reached a Breakthrough to the Heavenly Human Realm. Is this the source of your confidence in coming here?" Duan Zhengchun looked at Shen Lang with a smile.
"Kid, I must say, you are the most talented young man this old man has ever seen."
"Unfortunately, you are too arrogant and too supercilious."
"You shouldn't have killed my grandson, and you certainly shouldn't have killed my brothers."
"Both of my brothers died because of you. Today, this old man has come here for revenge."
"Today, the Duan Clan shall vanish from existence," Shen Lang said coldly.
"What big words. Even if my Duan Clan has declined, it's not something you can destroy just by saying so," Duan Zhengming snorted coldly and stepped forward.
"Heh... If the Duan Family Old Ancestor were still here, I might not dare to come. But now? With you two useless pieces of trash, killing you is as easy as crushing an ant," Shen Lang sneered.
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Duan Zhengchun shook his head helplessly.
This corrupted Shen Lang was truly arrogant. Did he really think he was invincible just because he broke through to the Heavenly Human Realm?
Did he really think the Dali Duan Clan only had the two of them?
According to his knowledge, there were Heavenly Human Realm existences among the eminent monks of Tianlong Temple.
They had always been the Duan Family's trump card. They simply wouldn't interfere in the family's affairs unless it was a matter of life and death.
However, there was no need for them to act now.
Duan Zhengchun could handle this alone.
"It seems your confidence stems from your current Heavenly Human Realm strength," Duan Zhengchun looked at Shen Lang with a calm expression.
Hearing 'Heavenly Human Realm', the people present couldn't help but cry out in shock.
"Holy crap, Heavenly Human Realm? No way, right? Great Hero Shen has already reached the strength of the Heavenly Human Realm?"
