Cloud City was the smallest city in the Wind Empire. It was so small that it was not suitable to be called a city. Calling it a small town would be more appropriate. Cloud City was not only the smallest, but also the most remote. Its population, economy, and overall ranking were the lowest in the entire Wind Empire. The residents of Cloud City often ridiculed themselves for being forgotten by the Sky Continent. The Xiao Clan was a mediocre existence in the Wind Empire, but in the Cloud City, it was a true powerhouse.
Cloud City was very crowded today, and the reason was of course due to the marriage of Xiao Che and Xia Qingyue. Xiao Che marrying a wife was one thing, no one cared, but Xia Qingyue's marriage was definitely a major event that would shake the entire Cloud City.
The Xia clan was not purely a clan that cultivated the Profound Yang, but they had been merchants for generations. Although their wealth was not much in the Wind Empire, they were definitely the richest in Cloud City. However, this did not mean that the Xia Clan was weak. With their wealth, it can naturally hire a large number of experts to protect their property. The current head of the Xia Clan, Xia Hongyi, had a pair of children, Xia Yuanba and Xia Qingyue. Both of them were not interested in business and instead focused on cultivating the Profound Yang. Xia Hongyi had never objected to this. After Xia Qingyue showed her talent that caused a sensation in the Cloud City, there was less reason for her to stop it. On the contrary, due to Xia Qingyue's outstanding talent, the main clan of Cloud City often expressed their goodwill..After all, Xia Qingyue was openly acknowledged as having the potential to reach the Earth's Profound Realm, she said, or even the Sky Profound Realm. At that time, not only would the Xia Clan be rich, but their strength would also dominate the Cloud City.
However, the Xia Clan wanted the smartest girl in the city to marry Xiao Che, who had no future at all. Who knows how many people feel pity . Of course, there are more people who are envious.
Since the Xia Clan married off their daughter, the sight was certainly not bad. As soon as Xiao Che stepped out, he saw an extremely long red carpet unfolding before the door. This red carpet started from the entrance of the Xiao Clan and extended towards the Xia Clan. The distance between the Xia Family and the Xiao Family was not too far away, but it was also not too close. They were at least a dozen miles away. In other words, this red carpet was at least a dozen miles long.In addition to the Xia Family, no other family in the entire Cloud City had an astonishing amount of money.
As soon as the Xiao Family's wedding procession appeared, the streets of Cloud City instantly became lively. People crowded both sides of the street to witness the excitement. As the procession moved forward, all sorts of whispers entered Xiao Che's ears.
"Look! It was the grandson of the Fifth Elder of the Xiao Family, Xiao Che. It was said that he was born with a crippled Profound Blood Vessel and would never be able to break through the first level of the Basic Profound Realm."
"Oh, this is the first time I've seen her."
"It's normal that you've never seen it. He had an amazing grandfather, but he himself was useless. If it was you, would you still have the face to go out so often? Huh, in fact Xia Qingyue was married to such a person, the sky must be blind!"
"It was said that his father, Xiao Ying, and Xia Hongyi were foster brothers. When Xia Qingyue was born, she almost died. Fortunately, Xiao Ying consumed a lot of energy to save him. Xia Hongyi then promised that when Xia Qingyue was sixteen years old, she would marry Xiao Ying's son as her daughter-in-law. Not long after, Xiao Ying was killed. Due to consuming a lot of energy, he was unable to fight back and die. Xia Hongyi increasingly blamed himself ... Now that Xia Qingyue was sixteen years old, although Xiao Ying's son was useless, Xia Hongyi was a person who valued friendship and truth throughout her life. He would never break his promise. Otherwise, how could this man marry Xia Qingyue?"
"Huh! Xia Qingyue is the pearl of our Cloud City. If this Xiao Che took his status as the grandson of the Fifth Elder of the Xiao Clan, he would not even be considered as mud. I am a hundred times stronger than him! This world is really too unfair!"
"The goddess of my dreams is really going to marry a useless person. I'm so unwilling to die!"
On the horse, Xiao Che's eyes were like a deep pond, sparkling and calm. His attitude is elegant and graceful. She was wearing a bright red wedding robe with her long hair fluttering behind her. From head to toe, his entire body exuded a graceful and otherworldly aura. His ears were filled with all sorts of discussions. All kinds of jealous, unwilling, mocking, hateful, envious, and contemptuous gazes focused on his body. However, he did not seem to be aware of all that. His face always carried a light and windy smile. It was unknown how many girls lost their souls when they looked at her.
Although Xiao Che was trash, his appearance was definitely not bad. Even when compared to Xiao Yulong, he did not lose. Besides, he rarely went out. Xiao Che was extremely low and looked extremely weak and gentle!
Therefore, even if there were many young talents who hated and envied Xiao Che until their teeth itched, they couldn't help but admit that in terms of appearance, it was not, This Xiao Che seemed to be a perfect match for Xia Qingyue.
"I thought Xiao Che would be sitting on a stretcher today. I didn't think he would ride a horse. Let alone this temperament and expression ... It looks different from a rumor."
"Curtain! He was useless which everyone underestimated. Today, he will marry the pearl of our Cloud City, Xia Qingyue. Of course, he should be as proud as possible! Is he afraid to show his face?" A voice said hatefully.
"I heard that the young master of the Yuwen Clan and the Mayor's family had been chasing Xia Qingyue madly. Do you think they'll come to kidnap the bride?"
"Come on! Xiao Che was nothing, but his grandfather was Xiao Lie. He is the number one expert of our Cloud City. Even the Mayor had to be polite when he saw it. His son died and he has only one of these grandchildren. He must be very protective of her. If someone came to cause trouble, Xiao Lie would definitely be furious! Who would dare to touch this misfortune! Besides, this is not a forced marriage. Who would dare to cause trouble and provoke the entire Xia Clan ? I suspect the young masters of the clan are all locked up in their homes. "
The wedding procession goes at a steady pace. They take three hours to walk a dozen miles.
As they approached the main gate of the Xia Clan, a rude shout sounded. A tall and sturdy figure quickly ran towards Xiao Che. This person did not look old, but he was at least two meters tall. His body is as strong as a bull. When he ran, even the ground trembled slightly. Xiao Che saw her approaching and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He widened his eyes and said: "Yuanba! We haven't seen each other in less than a month. How did you grow so much taller?!"
This man ... To be more precise, he is a man. He was Xia Qingyue's younger brother, Xia Yuanba. She was fifteen this year .. Right, she was only fifteen! But just by looking at his physique, no one had expected him to have just turned fifteen this year! He was over two meters tall .. Xiao Che was riding a horse, but his head was only on a level with him. It weighs over 350 pounds. But with such a weight, Xia Yuanba was clearly not fat. The muscles in his body were all protruding and had a faint dark metallic luster. It contained an incredible power. Xia Yuanba was only at the fourth level of the Basic Profound Realm. It could only be considered a little above average. But his power is limitless. Even if he were to fight with someone at the sixth level of the Basic Profound Realm, he would definitely not lose.
Xia Yuanba was Xiao Che's only friend. She had always called out to sister-in-law Xiao Che since she was young. The two play together. Before the age of eight, Xia Yuanba was still dark and thin. He is often bullied. After the age of eight, Xia Yuanba's height and weight increased explosively. His appetite and strength also became even more astounding. Now that he was fifteen years old .. Just by looking at his face, one could vaguely see the gentleness. But his physique ... was terrifying!
Hearing Xiao Che's words, Xia Yuanba scratched his head and said with a embarrassed face: "This. Dad told me to lose weight every day, but letting me starve was worse than killing me. "
"…" Xiao Che was silent. He was only fifteen years old and was already in this state. When he became an adult .. How unimaginable!
Xiao Che had seen Xia Yuanba's appetite many times. Fortunately, he was born in the Xia family. If she was born into a normal family, she would have eaten a long time ago until she was broke.
"Hehe, sister-in-law, today you are officially my sister-in-law." Xia Yuanba smiled simply and honestly. He was very happy that his brother would marry Xiao Che. In fact, he had been looking forward to this day. Because according to him, with such a strong sister like his wife, no one dared to look down on Xiao Che.
"Quick in. Brother is ready." Speaking to this point, Xia Yuanba slapped his forehead: "Oh right, I will open the main door."
With that, Xia Yuanba dashed towards the main door of the Xia family like a moving pile of meat.
As the wedding procession entered the Xia family residence, Xiao Che looked at the smiling Xia Hongyi as he walked in. He immediately got down and walked in front of Xia Hongyi and respectfully saluted: "Uncle Xia."
"Ha huh! Even at a time like this, you still call me uncle?" Xia Hongyi said with a gentle smile. He was not tall and gained weight in middle age. He looked simple and honest, but no one in Cloud City dared to underestimate him.
Xiao Che's eyes narrowed as he respectfully greeted: "Father-in-law."
He had always held Xia Hongyi high. Because he was his father's foster brother. Ever since he was young, he had received countless gazes of disdain. But Xia Hongyi always looked after her. Despite being crippled, she still did not break her father's promise and took the initiative to marry Xia Qingyue to Xiao Che when she was sixteen.
"Heh, nice!" Xia Hongyi nodded and reached out to pat Xiao Che on the shoulder: "Che'er, from today onwards, I will hand Qingyue over to you. Even though you are not a great hero or a strong person, just because you are the son of Xiao Ying, I can rest assured of marrying my daughter to you. Your father, Xiao Ying, is extremely talented and loyal. To be able to be a brother to her is something I will never regret in my life. You are the son of Xiao Ying, even if you are crippled, I do not believe that you will become an ordinary person in the future. "
"Treat my daughter well. As for those rumors and slanders, let it go."
Xiao Che's eyes moved slightly before he slowly but firmly nodded his head: "Father-in-law, don't worry. Although I am looked down upon by others now, the hidden dragon will awaken someday. When the time comes, I will make all those who look down on me, and those who mock the Xia family for having a useless daughter-in-law, shut up."
Xia Hongyi was stunned for a moment ... The Xiao Che he knew was always gentle and weak. In addition to having a gentle temperament, she often inadvertently revealed a sense of inferiority. But today, he said such bold words to her. Furthermore, his gaze was sharp and his expression was calm. His eyes were so deep that he could not see through it. It was completely different from his previous weak attitude.
"Good!" Xia Hongyi nodded and once again patted Xiao Che on the shoulder: "I believe that Xiao Ying's son must be unusual. I will wait for the moment when you fly into the abyss like a hidden dragon. Alright, Qingyue's side is ready. Go awayl.
