Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

"Old Jin, are you alright?" Chu Linfeng asked the Golden Demon Vulture, surprised that the power of the Immortal Emperor’s self-detonation could cause damage from thousands of miles away. It was indeed terrifying.

"Boss, I’m fine, but I don’t know if your little brother is. How about we go back and check on him?" the Golden Demon Vulture said.

It seemed the Flame Immortal Monarch didn’t come along; he should be within Liuguang City. "Alright, let’s go see how he’s doing."

The Golden Demon Vulture flew swiftly and returned to Liuguang City in no time. At this moment, Liuguang City had suffered significant damage due to Zhang Liuguang’s self-detonation, with some houses directly collapsing, especially the city walls, which fell the worst.

However, the people on the ground were unharmed. Many were startled to see Chu Linfeng returning on a giant golden bird, as he had been fighting the City Lord. Now that he was back, and with such a powerful explosion earlier, many felt an ominous premonition that the Liuguang City Lord was unlikely to fare well.

Soon, Chu Linfeng saw the Flame Immortal Monarch, who seemed to be coming towards him. At that moment, the Flame Immortal Monarch said, "Lin Feng, did you really kill that guy? How is it possible? He was a mid-stage Immortal Emperor expert, and yet you’re not injured at all. It’s astonishing!"

"His strength was indeed formidable, but killing him was still within my capabilities. Without him, I doubt the auction can proceed. How about we leave here quickly? I want to visit the Xuanyuan Emperor Palace. You know I promised Xuanyuan Yueyan to take her away," Chu Linfeng said calmly.

The Flame Immortal Monarch’s face changed suddenly and said, "Lin Feng, bad news. When I saw you, I wanted to tell you about Xuanyuan Yueyan, but in my excitement, I forgot."

Chu Linfeng was startled and quickly asked, "Did something happen to Yueyan? Tell me quickly!"

"Xuanyuan Yueyan seems to be getting married to Shangguan Luoyang today. Invitations have been sent out for a long time. Our Domain Lord didn’t come because he went to the Profound Celestial Pavilion to attend the wedding," the Flame Immortal Monarch said.

"Profound Celestial Pavilion? You mean Yueyan is in the Profound Celestial Pavilion? With Shangguan Luoyang?" Chu Linfeng’s composure broke. Shangguan Luoyang was supposed to be trapped in the Ice and Snow Fairy’s Three Profound Tower, and if he’s back, it means something happened to the Ice and Snow Fairy too. Sweat instantly broke out on his forehead.

"Flame hurry, let’s head to the Profound Celestial Pavilion. Old Jin doesn’t know the location, you lead the way!" Chu Linfeng said urgently.

Then the two mounted the Golden Demon Vulture’s back. "Old Jin, rush to the Profound Celestial Pavilion at the fastest speed. I can’t let Yueyan marry Shangguan Luoyang; she is my woman!"

"Understood, boss!" the Golden Demon Vulture said, and suddenly a golden light flashed, revealing a huge golden bird with wings spanning several hundred meters appearing above Liuguang City, swiftly flying towards the horizon.

At this moment, Chu Linfeng’s heart was burning with urgency, wanting desperately to reach the Profound Celestial Pavilion. Xuanyuan Yueyan agreeing to marry Shangguan Luoyang must have a compelling reason. Over the years, he hadn’t been by her side, and she must have suffered greatly.

"Lin Feng, even riding my Immortal Vulture from here to Profound Celestial Pavilion takes about a day; I’m afraid we won’t make it in time!" the Flame Immortal Monarch said.

"How can your Immortal Vulture compare with my Golden-Winged Roc? Immortal Vulture takes a day; Golden-Winged Roc takes at most three hours. You just need to get the direction right," Chu Linfeng said.

Upon hearing Chu Linfeng’s words, the Flame Immortal Monarch was so surprised he nearly fell off the Golden-Winged Roc. Of course, the Roc was so large that even flipping a few times on it wouldn’t matter.

"This is the legendary fastest creature in the Immortal Realm, the Golden-winged Roc? Boss, you managed to make the Roc a Flying Immortal Beast? That’s incredible!" the Flame Immortal Monarch couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Is it that surprising? I have many secrets, but this isn’t the time to talk about them. Just focus on identifying the direction; the Roc’s speed can cover thousands of miles in an instant," Chu Linfeng reminded.

"Don’t worry boss, I’m a late-stage Immortal Monarch after all. This much I can do," the Flame Immortal Monarch said. His address for Chu Linfeng changed to ’boss,’ coming from the heart.

Chu Linfeng and the Flame Immortal Monarch were frantically heading towards the Profound Celestial Pavilion. Meanwhile, the Pavilion was festively decorated, with celestial music playing. Shangguan Ruhuo sat in the main hall, welcoming guests from afar, looking very pleased.

The hall was filled with dozens of people, all notable figures from the Immortal Realm. Left Gufei from Cold Sha Emperor Palace and Nangong Ming from Emperor Wu Spirit Realm sat together. A strange fairy from Dream-Spirit Sacred Domain and the Sect Master from Heartless Sword Tomb sat on the other side, while Xuanyuan Changtian and Shangguan Ruhuo sat above.

Below were influential people from various forces and representatives from powerful families. At this moment, Shangguan Ruhuo spoke to the crowd, "Thank you all for attending the wedding of my son Shangguan Luoyang and Xuanyuan Changtian’s daughter Xuanyuan Yueyan. After the wedding, we will host everyone well."

"Pavilion Master, you’re too kind. It’s an honor to attend nephew Luoyang’s wedding. The hour is getting late; when do we proceed with the ceremony? I’m eager for a drink," Left Gufei stood and said.

"The auspicious hour is in half an hour, but we can have Luoyang and Yueyan come to the hall to prepare. This marriage between Luoyang and Yueyan has been my and Brother Xuanyuan’s long-cherished wish," Shangguan Ruhuo said.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Yueyan was wearing her bridal attire, but her face was covered in tears. Shangguan Luoyang had initially promised to hold the wedding twenty years later, only to change midway and suddenly bring it forward by several days.

The main reason was Shangguan Luoyang’s desire for Chu Linfeng to know that by the time he reached the Profound Celestial Pavilion, Xuanyuan Yueyan would already be his woman. Such a blow would be incredibly devastating, even more satisfying than killing him. He wanted to see Chu Linfeng suffer, to see him in agony to vent his overwhelming hatred.

Xuanyuan Yueyan naturally wouldn’t agree to his demands, but Shangguan Ruhuo directly captured her mother, forcing her compliance under the threat of killing her mother if she refused. Now, although the Xuanyuan Emperor Palace existed, it was only a shell.

"Lin Feng, I’m sorry I can’t be your bride. I’m sorry! For the sake of my mother, I have no choice but to do this. I hope you understand me and forgive me for not keeping our promise!" Xuanyuan Yueyan murmured to herself, tears falling like pearls.

Then, two maidservants came in and helped Xuanyuan Yueyan out of her room and into the main hall, where Shangguan Luoyang wore a large red flower on his chest, matching Xuanyuan Yueyan’s phoenix crown and red bridal attire, creating the impression of a divine couple.

After a while, an elder in the hall suddenly cried out, "The auspicious hour has arrived, let the bride and groom salute!"

Xuanyuan Yueyan’s heart was filled with hope that Chu Linfeng would appear at this moment. Although she knew it was unlikely, she couldn’t help but wish so.

For her mother’s sake, she had no choice but to proceed, bowing to Shangguan Ruhuo and Xuanyuan Changtian in the hall, then to the heavens and earth. However, just as they were about to bow as husband and wife, a voice full of killing intent rang out, "She is my woman; no one can take her away!"
