Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3424: There’s a Good Show to Watch

Passing through the vast yellow sand, the Floating City gradually became clear.

The environment here was very unique. Within a hundred miles outside the Floating City, howling yellow sand formed storms, making travel extremely difficult.

But once past the yellow sand, within a hundred miles of the Floating City, it was completely calm again.

Lin Moyu could see that the yellow sand was not some formation, nor was it a naturally formed spectacle. Rather, it was formed by the remnants of some power, creating the scene of vast yellow sand.

After entering the Broken Sky Domain, Lin Moyu had sensed this power. This power was very ancient, having existed for countless years.

Lin Moyu judged it to be power left over from the Origin Catastrophe.

For a power to remain from the time of the Origin Catastrophe until now showed how strong its owner was, far beyond comparison with ordinary Great Dao realm beings.

The Floating City was very large, with only two families inside – the Jiang family and the Sha family.

The two great families jointly managed the Floating City. They got along fairly well and hadn’t caused any conflicts.

Moreover, over the years, there had been intermarriages between the two families, forming a situation where each was part of the other.

This way, for the people living in the Floating City, it was a good thing, allowing them to live peacefully.

Entering the Floating City, Lin Moyu quickly found the Jiang family’s location.

In front of the Jiang family’s main gate, two Jiang family disciples stood straight. The gate was wide open, with noisy sounds coming from inside.

Outside the gate hung large red couplets, and big “happiness” characters were pasted up.

Lin Moyu chuckled, “We came at a good time, just in time for someone’s wedding.”

Little Mei squinted her eyes, “Teacher, why don’t we go join in the festivities?”

She smiled somewhat flatteringly, clearly just wanting to go take a look.

Seeing that Lin Moyu didn’t immediately agree, Little Mei shook Lin Moyu’s arm, her flattery turning into coquettishness, “In my previous life, I never attended a wedding ceremony or drank wedding wine. Let’s just go take a look!”

Lin Moyu said, “Your previous life seems to have been lived in vain. Since you want to go so much, let’s go take a look.”

Little Mei jumped up happily, “Teacher is the best!”

Having merged with her previous life’s memories, Little Mei was sometimes mature, sometimes like a child who never grew up, interested in everything.

One could only say that in her previous life, Little Mei had spent too much time on cultivation and experienced too little of worldly matters.

The two walked to the Jiang family’s gate. The Jiang family’s gatekeepers immediately came up politely, “Esteemed elder, have you come to attend the wedding ceremony?”

The two Jiang family disciples guarding the gate both had God King realm cultivation, which wasn’t very high. But the fact that God King realm disciples were assigned to guard the gate showed that the Jiang family was quite powerful.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “We happened to be passing by and thought to join in the festivities, and drink a cup of wedding wine if possible. I wonder if the Jiang family welcomes us?”

The man immediately said, “The family head said that today, all who come are guests. This junior will lead the way for the elder.”

He led Lin Moyu and Little Mei into the Jiang family compound. After passing through the front courtyard, they saw a large area set up with banquet tables.

Over a hundred banquet tables were already set up, laden with exquisite dishes. Many people were seated, engaged in lively conversation and toasting each other.

At this time, the newlywed groom was making toasts, but the bride hadn’t arrived yet.

The Jiang family disciple leading Lin Moyu said, “Except for the front row, the elder may sit anywhere. The family head said that today is a joyous occasion, so we’re not standing on ceremony. This junior still needs to go guard the gate, so I’ll take my leave now.”

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “Good, thank you!”

Lin Moyu and Little Mei casually found a table to sit at. This table already had two people seated, dressed similarly, clearly from the same sect.

Although the food on the table couldn’t compare to the delicacies of the Dragon Race, it was still quite exquisite. Little Mei started eating without any hesitation.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “Did you come to eat or to watch the wedding?”

Little Mei said, “They don’t conflict. Teacher, let me finish eating at this table first, then I’ll change to another table to eat.”

As she spoke, her mouth didn’t stop, not much different from wolfing down the food.

Lin Moyu looked helpless, “You’re like a starving ghost reincarnated.”

Little Mei had a matter-of-fact expression, “In my previous life, I lived on wind and dew, and indeed didn’t eat much food.”

Lin Moyu understood. Little Mei hadn’t come to join the festivities at all, she had purely come to eat.

At this time, one of the people at the same table said kindly, “Friend’s disciple is truly hearty.”

Using the word “hearty” for a man would be fine, but using it for a little girl like Little Mei sounded somewhat strange no matter how you heard it.

Fortunately, Lin Moyu’s face was thick enough, “Friend is too kind. May I ask friend’s surname?”

The man cupped his hands in greeting, speaking more formally, “This one is Pan Bojie, and this is my clan brother Chen.”

Pan Chen also greeted Lin Moyu. The two had Heavenly Venerable cultivation, which wasn’t bad among the many guests.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “I am Lin Moyu. Is Friend Pan from the Pan family of the Floating City?”

Pan Bojie was slightly startled, “Friend Lin knows of the Pan family?”

The Pan family was a small family in the Floating City, not very notable. But Lin Moyu had seen them mentioned in the information about the Floating City, so he remembered.

The Pan family head’s daughter had married a young master of the Jiang family, so they were also considered in-laws.

Lin Moyu smiled and said, “I’ve heard that the Pan family head is benevolent and charitable, establishing schools in the Floating City to provide cultivation enlightenment for the common people.”

Seeing that Lin Moyu could speak about some of the Pan family’s affairs, Pan Bojie’s face immediately lit up with a big smile. At least Lin Moyu wasn’t one of those people who claimed to have long admired them but actually knew nothing.

In an instant, Lin Moyu’s favorability greatly increased in the eyes of the two Pan family members.

Lin Moyu asked, “May I ask which young master of the Jiang family is getting married today?”

Pan Bojie said, “Today is the wedding of the Jiang family’s direct line young master, Young Master Jiang Lixin, and Miss Sha Shinan of the Sha family. However, Miss Sha Shinan hasn’t arrived yet. According to our local custom, the bride will arrive after half the wine has been drunk.”

Children of the Jiang and Sha families intermarrying had been a tradition for many years, so Lin Moyu wasn’t surprised at all.

Jiang Lixin was from the Jiang family’s new generation. His cultivation wasn’t high at the moment, only at the Supreme realm.

In the information Lin Moyu had obtained, there was no mention of Jiang Lixin, indicating he wasn’t qualified to be recorded by the Lu Feng Chamber of Commerce.

Pan Bojie was very talkative and said a lot about Jiang Lixin. From Pan Bojie’s words, Jiang Lixin was an undoubted genius with a good chance of becoming the Jiang family head in the future.

It was precisely because of this that the Sha family was willing to marry their young miss over. Sha Shinan was the granddaughter of the Sha family head and wouldn’t be married off lightly.

More and more people came to attend the banquet, and gradually every table was filled with guests. Even Little Mei, thick-skinned as she was, felt too embarrassed to change tables.

Lin Moyu looked at the dozens of tables in the front three rows, which still had no one seated. The Sha family hadn’t arrived, and few people from the Jiang family had come either.

He couldn’t help feeling a bit strange. His gaze focused slightly as he looked up at the sky.

In the sky, the Jiang family’s fortune was like smoke, flickering between strong and weak.

Lin Moyu realized that something seemed to have gone wrong with the Jiang family. Such fortune clearly showed that the Jiang family was about to encounter some changes.

The changes wouldn’t be too drastic. Judging from the fortune, the Jiang family wouldn’t be destroyed, but they might suffer a major blow.

Then Lin Moyu looked at the groom Jiang Lixin and couldn’t help frowning slightly. Jiang Lixin had bad luck entangled around him, with wisps of black energy emanating from him. He was in mortal danger.

Little Mei noticed Lin Moyu’s abnormality, “Teacher, what’s wrong?”

Lin Moyu smiled, “There’s a good show to watch!”
