Lady Su’s Revenge

Chapter 268 Performing the Formal Wedding Ceremony

In front of the gate of Lord Rui’s Mansion, the team of escorting bride stopped slowly. There were many onlookers. The maids looking on broke up a hubbub immediately.

“Here they come. They finally come!”

Mammy Li was also in red. She had been with Su Li all the time. Now Su Li got married. She would go to the Ling Mansion with Su Li naturally and be in charge of taking care of Su Li.

Looking at the handsome young man who was sitting in the seat, Mammy Li couldn’t help delighting. She knew some exact details about Ling Li, and now she was happy for Su Li to get a powerful husband.

Under the watchful eyes of the people, Ling Li was held by Ling Mo from the special seat to the wheelchair. He felt nervous and excited.

He took a deep breath and tried his best to keep calm. Then he waved the wheelchair alone to get in the Lord Rui’s Mansion. With no delay, he came in Su Li’s own house.

Ling Li was surprised. He had been attended many weddings of some big families in Yunjing City. When the bridegrooms came to greet the bridges, they would be obstructed. But he got no obstructions. Did Lord Rui change his opinion about him because of the imperial edict? Or…

At this moment—

A horrible blast came suddenly!

Ling Li’s pupils shrank. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind instantly. Finally, he relaxed his body and gave up resisting.

“Humph!”

With the voice coming out, the horrible blast disappeared. Ling Li narrowed his eyes. The man didn’t mean to hurt him because this strength disappeared so easy.

Testing?

Thought of this, Ling Li turned around, pretending to be puzzled. But when he saw the man, who was behind him, he was shocked.

The young man was in a servant clothes. He was not like eighteen or nineteen years old. His expression was as indifferent as Ling Mo, but his expression was more complicated.

“Are you…Fang Yuan?”

Ling Li remembered his name. And then he noticed Fang Yuan’s powerful cultivation. He was shocked.

He also remembered that Fang Yuan even not broke the inborn realm when he met him in the Dasu Town, but now he was above the inborn sixth hurdle?!

Just for one year, he grew up so quickly. It was exaggerated.

He was a little puzzled when thought of Su Li, who improved her cultivation so fast. He suddenly realized that Fang Yuan had followed Su Li all the time.

“Childe Ling, you must know the purpose that I come today.” Fang Yuan had a grim expression, and his tone filled with the intention to kill Ling Li, “You have hurt her once. From now on, if you dare to let her down, I’ll try my best to kill you, no matter where you are.”

Ling Li raised his eyebrows. He seemed to be relaxed, but he had a heavy heart because he saw Fang Yuan had the same thing in his eyes. For Su Li, they both could be desperate!

Even in some respects, he was inferior to Fang Yuan! It was because he couldn’t give up the hatred of the Ling Family…

Thought of this, Ling Li took a breath. The cold air had been inhaled and exhaled, as if it took his anxiety and nervousness away. Finally, he recovered the coldness as a hierarch when he faced with Fang Yuan.

“I never want to hurt her. If you come here just for the warning, then… you can move away.”

Fang Yuan frowned. He grudged moving away. The woman who he loved was behind the door, and she would marry this man who was in front of him. If he could do, he would stand here all his life and not let her go.

However, everything was her own choice.

Fang Yuan was even more miserable. After disintegration of families, he took his sister everywhere and lived a hard life. He thought he had experienced all kinds of suffering in the world, but now he knew that there was an extreme suffering, which was more unbearable than before.

“Remember what I told you.” Fang Yuan said.

He finally stepped out of the way. Ling Li seriously glanced at Fang Yuan, who stared at him, and entered the yard in the wheelchair.

In the new yard, Su Li was wearing a red wedding veil and sat quietly at the stone table. Mammy Li had come to the yard ahead of time and was very happy.

The bride should have been waiting in the house, but Su Li was unwilling to do. They finally waited in the yard.

The marriage granted by the emperor was a symbol of destiny. Because of the urgency of time, many rules were omitted. And it had no effect to omit this rule.

A moment later, when Mammy Li heard the sound of the wheelchair rolling, Mammy Li’s eyes were brightened immediately. She said happily, “Master, you finally come!”

Ling Li saw Su Li sitting in the yard. He was stunned. It seemed that Su Li had heard all the conversations just now.

But Mammy Li didn’t notice Ling Li’s reaction. She pushed the wheelchair to Su Li’s side and said, “Master, don’t be in a trance. You should take Miss out to avoid wasting time.”

Mammy Li took the red silk and put one side into Su Li’s hand. Then she handed the other side to Ling Li.

Ling Li immediately returned to his mind, holding the red silk tightly. He nodded and said, “Right. We’ll go out now.”

“Yep!”

Mammy Li responded with a smile and helped Ling Li to push the wheelchair to the gate. She was secretly pleased that when Childe Ling was in the yard of the valley, he was so spirited. Today, he was so nervous that he even couldn’t speak. It was very interesting…

After they came out of the yard, Ling Li did not see Fang Yuan again. He tightly grasped the red silk in his hand and looked at Su Li all the time. Although he could not see Su Li’s face, he knew that it must be Su Li just by looking at her posture.

Now, Su Li lost her ferocity and craziness in osmanthus forest. She followed his wheelchair step by step. And she was quiet and gentle.

Ling Li was in a trance, as if they returned to the days when Su Li and he traveled together in Yunjing City. Unfortunately, those days had been broken with the disaster.

When three people came to the gate of the Lord Rui’s Mansion, people who had been waiting for them immediately became noisy.

“Come out. They come out! Here comes Princess Li…”

“Princess Li must be very beautiful. Unfortunately, she forgives the playboy of the Ling family. We have no chance to see her usually!”

“That’s hateful!”

“Ling Li is so lucky. I’m so enviable…”

Dongfang Rui looked at the three persons coming out and saw Ling Li’s appearance. His original uneasy mood was relieved. He could see that Ling Li really liked his daughter by earnest eyes. At least, she would not be wronged after she married him.

After Su Li sat in the sedan chair, the emcee of the Ministry of Rites shouted, “Set out!” The team escorting the bride began to walk back, and bustling people followed the team. People on the whole street followed them. Soon, the gate of Lord Rui’s Mansion became desolate.

Dongfang Rui had mixed feelings. He sighed deeply. Then he flicked his sleeve and said, “Let’s go, too.”

“OK, Master.”

Wu Bin secretly wiped his tears and was worried about his master. Because of the imperial edict, Miss married in a muddle. Master must be very sad.

After two hours, the escorting team was like a long dragon. It finally arrived at the gate of Ling Mansion.

Ling Li came to the sedan chair by his wheelchair. The emcee immediately shouted, “The bride gets off the sedan chair! The bridegroom bows!”

Ling Li immediately arched hands facing the sedan chair. He was very focused. Mammy Li was very solemn, but her eyes shined with joy. She lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and let Su Li come out. Then she handed the red silk to Su Li again.

“Bridegroom and bride, come to the front of the hall!”

“Burn the incense piously!”

“Kneel. First kowtow! Second kowtow! Third kowtow!”

The emcee’s voice was continuous. After they had burned the incense, they finally came to the main hall of Ling Mansion. At a glance, Ling Li saw his grandmother, Ms. Gu, sitting upright on the right. The wrinkles on her smiling face were all gathered together. On the left was Dongfang Rui, who looked sad but joyful.

Qiu Meng and Ling Ping were standing beside the Ms. Gu. Ling Ping was happy but calm. Qiu Meng had already burst into tears.

“First, kowtow to Heaven and Earth.”

The emcee’s tone was delayed for a long time. Ling Li turned his wheelchair back to the hall. After he hesitated for a moment, he tried to get off the wheelchair.

When the people in Ling Mansion saw it, they immediately changed their expression, and even the whispers became lower. The hall was silent in an instant.

“What does Li want to do? He was not able to move. Why did he get out of the wheelchair?”

Qiu Meng was anxious to help, but Ling Ping stopped her. He said, “Mom, I don’t think Brother Li wants to leave regrets. Respect him. Even if he tumbles, he is willing. If you help him, he will be uncomfortable.”

Qiu Meng was very pitiful. “Why didn’t he tell me anything? Even if I prepare a crutch for him, it’s much better than now…”

Ling Qinglan couldn’t help shaking his head when he saw the scene. Ling Li knew that the deeper he immersed now, the more painful he would be in the future. However, he had no intention to change. It was hard for anyone who was immersed in love to understand. At least, Ling Qinglan couldn’t understand.

In consideration of this, Ling Qinglan transmitted the sound in silence, “To ensure that there is no mistake, your tendons were banned yesterday. Now your legs are just like the real disabled. If you don’t want to expose your cultivation, you should kneel down from the wheelchair. It’s estimated that there will be a lot of embarrassment. Don’t do it…”

Ling Li lowered his head and clenched his teeth. He did not hesitate to raise upon his elbow.

Ling Qinglan frowned seriously. Ling Li had heard obviously, but he did not respond.

Ling Li’s action was too slow. Gradually, people began to whisper again.

“What is he doing? How can he marry Su Li just like this?”

“What a shame!”

“I can’t stand it anymore…”

“Shh, keep your voice down!”

Ling Li heard all and was slightly embarrassed. Every word hurt him. He started to speed up. It didn’t matter he lost face, but he didn’t want Su Li to be laughed at with him.

However, it was impossible for a person who had been banned cultivation to get out of the wheelchair with his hands alone. Indeed, after a while, Ling Li suddenly lost balance…

“Slam!”
