Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 945 - 914: Don't Be Afraid, I'm Here (Double Chapter)

As for the Dragon Girl's own will, it did not matter much to him. As the son of one of the strongest figures in Taeming Xuanhao Sky, he cared little for people of other worlds.

Even if the other party was from the Central Heavenly Domain, it was the same. The present Central Heavenly Domain was no longer what it was tens of thousands of years ago. Under the influence of the End of Dharma Age, the former central of all realms had long fallen from its pedestal.

...

The next morning, the entire Imperial City of Southern Tang was adorned with a festive red color.

Countless buildings were adorned with red lanterns and flowers, petals were scattered on the ground, and large red ribbons were hung by the roadside. The atmosphere was filled with celebration, and everyone was extremely excited, all heading toward the Yong Prince's Residence.

Today, Li Mingtang, the third prince of Tang Dynasty, was getting married. He was taking as his bride a Dragon Girl from beyond the realms, as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal. It's said she also brought along two maidservants of unmatched beauty. This was a joyous event, so the entire Imperial City was invited, and a general amnesty was declared.

Qin Heng followed the crowd and arrived at the Yong Prince's Residence. His Divine Sense had already pinpointed the locations of Song Ningran, Xue Qinan, and Qi Jia.

However, unless he could use methods beyond the Immortal realm to take them away, there was little use in doing so without resolving the issue of the Empress of Tang's semi-Immortal Artifact.

The semi-Immortal Artifact in the hands of the Empress of Tang allowed her to strike across billions of light-years, and even if Qin Heng took them away now, she could still capture them back.

Such a cycle would be endless, and in the process, Qin Heng could very well be trapped at a high-dimensional level, unable to descend to manifest in the material spacetime of the world.

Therefore, while rescuing the people, Qin Heng also needed to destroy the semi-Immortal Artifact that allowed the Empress of Tang to reach across billions of light-years, only then could future troubles be temporarily prevented!

Once back on Earth, he could then peacefully explore the Secret Realm of Time-Space Seal, focusing on insight into the Dao through the essence of the secret realm, enhancing his understanding of the Supreme Law.

Moreover, at this wedding banquet, the Tang Emperor Li Zhengyang was also expected to attend. This Great Emperor possessed an Immortal Artifact of unknown level, so Qin Heng would need to time his actions precisely to avoid direct confrontation with the Tang Emperor.

After all, if that Immortal Artifact were of Heavenly Immortal level or even higher, and the Tang Emperor also wielded certain Immortal Laws, it could affect the ability to traverse the Immortal realm.

The sun drew near its zenith; it was indeed an auspicious day and time.

Inside the Yong Prince's Residence, jubilant music played, like divine melodies, intoxicating to the ear, echoing throughout the entire Imperial City of Tang Dynasty without end.

The musicians were not ordinary people but individuals from the top sect in the current Central Plains, the Heavenly Sound Pavilion. There were twelve of them in total, all powerful individuals of the Nine Heavens of the Great Saint.

With such an ensemble, their music was naturally extraordinarily beautiful.

On the high platform of the wedding, the Empress of Tang sat regally, and beside her sat a handsome and dignified middle-aged man. He appeared to be in his thirties, with sharp, chiseled features and eyebrows like swords extending into his temples, exuding great authority. Just sitting there, he emanated an overwhelming aura.

This was the current emperor of Southern Tang, one of the three Great Emperors of the Central Plains, Li Zhengyang.

The groom, Li Mingtang, stood to one side, awaiting the wedding officiant's call, then the maidservants would lead the bride up, and the couple would perform the grand wedding ceremony.

"Begin the ceremony!"

A loud voice rang out. A man in red robes raised his hand high on the stage, and the musicians from the Heavenly Sound Pavilion in the residence played even more vigorously, their celestial music becoming even more resonant.

Dressed in bright red maidservant garb, Xue Qinan and Qi Jia led the bride, whose face was covered by a red veil, out from backstage. Their faces were somewhat pale, and their eyes showed fear.

Beneath the red veil, Song Ningran wept silently, when suddenly a familiar voice whispered in her ear.

"Fear not, for I am here."
