Chapter 714: Chapter 321: The Discovery of the Tracking Dog, Qi Yuan is Actually..._2

"You..." An Qiao was so angry that she wanted to draw her sword, but the man in black next to her stopped her.

"If you are sincerely here to observe the ceremony, we naturally welcome you.

If you’re looking to cause trouble, heh heh... don’t expect to leave Sea Stone Village alive.

In Sea Stone Village, the Sea God is The Emperor, and this old man here is the Crown Prince!"

The village elder, nearly seventy, said boldly, his voice commanding and powerful.

Just then, a slightly surprised voice rang out.

"Is there really a Crown Prince who is seventy years old in this world?"

Qi Yuan walked over, looking at the village elder with a face full of surprise.

"Having been the Crown Prince for so many years, are you content?

Are you like the characters in TV dramas, secretly resenting The Emperor, always hoping he will die?

Oh, these sturdy young men around you must be the secret warriors you’ve trained."

Qi Yuan stared at the village elder, his eyes suddenly widening.

"Good heavens, I sense a tumultuous aura of bloodshed here, a sign of impending warfare, the star of the emperor is dim.

Could it be that you, the Crown Prince, harboring discontent, have hidden these warriors to assassinate the Sea God during The Emperor’s grand wedding today!"

Qi Yuan spoke very quickly, like a machine gun.

His exaggerated performance managed to raise the atmosphere at once.

The village elder’s face changed again and again: "I did not, stop talking nonsense, I am loyal to the Sea God through and through!"

"Alas, no wonder I had a dream last night where a white snake that could speak human language told me: ’When Sea Stone prospers, the village elder shall reign.’

Initially, I did not understand the meaning of this, but after coming here, I’ve found the answer.

Village elder, you are such a ruthless man!"

Accompanying Qi Yuan’s words, the young braves around the village elder couldn’t help but step away from him a little.

The village elder’s head was buzzing at this moment.

To tell the truth, he felt invigorated when he heard Qi Yuan’s voice and even wanted to rise up and truly become the king.

However, he soon came to his senses.

He had no sons, so if he became The Emperor, who would inherit the throne?

Wouldn’t that just benefit others?

Thinking this, he glared at Qi Yuan: "Who are you, spreading such nonsense and causing trouble?"

"I am the one who seeks blood from all worlds..." Qi Yuan replied seriously.

He had come here to take the blood of the Sea God.

The village elder was utterly confused; he didn’t quite understand what Qi Yuan was saying, and his head was still buzzing, with his blood rushing to his head, he retorted without courtesy: "So, you’re a madman."

At this moment, An Qiao looked at Qi Yuan with a hint of amusement in her eyes: "Qi Yuan, how did you get here?"

Having previously referred to Qi Yuan as a newcomer and now as Qi Yuan, he couldn’t help but reflect with a wry smile on the capricious nature of women.

"My child bride is getting married today, and I’m here to attend the wedding," Qi Yuan replied earnestly.

"???" An Qiao was utterly baffled.

The village elder’s gaze towards Qi Yuan also became unfriendly.

Could it be that the woman they had captured below was this madman’s child bride?

He looked at Qi Yuan with a threatening tone: "If anyone dares to disrupt the Sea God’s wedding today, don’t expect to leave the village alive!"

These people were from officialdom, and he couldn’t afford to confront them directly.

After delivering the harsh warning, the village elder left with the villagers.

Qi Yuan, watching the village elder’s retreating figure, shouted: "Don’t misunderstand, my relationship with the child bride ended a long time ago, even if I were to kidnap the bride, I wouldn’t kidnap her, the Sea God... is my First Love after all!"

However, his words did not reach the village elder and the others.

An Qiao, at this point, quite agreed with the village elder, thinking Qi Yuan might actually be a bit mad.

"Qi Yuan, do you remember the madman from yesterday? We followed him here.

Our team leader is currently lying low in this place, while the two of us have come to Sea Stone Village openly to scout around and see if there are any clues," An Qiao shared their reason for coming with Qi Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan nodded: "Do as you please, just don’t interfere with my kidnapping of the bride."

"What?" An Qiao’s expression grew serious, "Qi Yuan, this Sea God... is suspected to be a Great Demon from the Jade Blood Realm, he surely won’t be pleased if you kidnap his wife."

"Who said I’m kidnapping his wife?" Qi Yuan replied nonchalantly, "Don’t worry, I know my limits. Let’s first go to observe the ceremony, I also want to learn... how to get married."

The first time he got married, he had fallen asleep and had no recollection of it, having gone into the bridal chamber in a daze.

This time, he had to pay close attention.

An Qiao, upon hearing this, was speechless.

She wanted to remind him that the mission was of utmost importance.

But remembering Qi Yuan’s strength, as well as his unpredictable behavior,

she was afraid of getting killed, so she didn’t say anything.

In the time that followed, the three of them and one dog roamed around the village.

Amidst the clanging of gongs and drums, the wedding of the Sea God officially began.

The long and spectacular procession, lifting the bridal sedan chair, their hands beating gongs and drums.

An Qiao looked at all this, her eyes filled with complexity, "Not to mention anything else, these ancient people’s weddings are quite interesting."

Though there was no ten-mile-long bridal procession, towering horses, or phoenix crowns and rosy-red wedding attire.

Qi Yuan, on the other hand, shook his head in disappointment, "It’s not even as grand as my band, not to mention my funeral team."

"What?" An Qiao blinked, "What band, funeral team? Where are they?"

She suspected Qi Yuan was spouting nonsense again.

"They are... in my heart," Qi Yuan’s gaze turned slightly somber.

The villagers of the Mortal Heart Realm had become his Divine Children, become a part of him.

Now, he could not awaken them.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but remember the movie star Wu Qi.

An Qiao stopped talking; she felt she couldn’t get through to Qi Yuan.

At this moment, the procession in the village had already stretched to the sandy beach.

Eight villagers lifted the great sedan chair, faces beaming with joy.

The village chief stood on the high platform, burning incense, bowing to the sea, and kowtowing—his expression one of utmost devotion.

"Mighty Sea God, omnipotent Sea God, please grant our Sea Stone Village a season of bountiful harvest and peace."

As the village chief spoke, all the villagers facing the sea knelt down in unison, prostrating themselves on the ground with expressions of sincere reverence.

Those still standing were merely the onlookers and the villagers lifting the eight-bearer large sedan chair.

The men carrying the sedan chair now stepped forward, their feet pressing into the sand, heading towards the sea.

An Qiao’s heart couldn’t bear it when she saw this scene.

She was about to witness the tragic death of an innocent.

Qi Yuan pricked up his ears, an odd look on his face, "Why isn’t the master of ceremonies asking if they are willing? If he doesn’t ask, how can I snatch the bride?"

In movies, it was always like this.

As soon as the master of ceremonies asked if they were willing, a close-up shot would appear on the bride or groom, and then the bride-snatching would begin.

Qi Yuan also felt that was the best moment to snatch the bride; otherwise, TV dramas wouldn’t depict it that way.

Qi Yuan always abided by the rules, following protocols and never breaking laws or causing chaos.

After all, if it was illegal, it would definitely not be shown on television.

And if it was illegal, surely it wouldn’t be broadcast.

"Here... it seems there is no master of ceremonies," An Qiao really didn’t want to talk to Qi Yuan.

"What? No master of ceremonies? How am I supposed to snatch the bride?" Qi Yuan was also perplexed.

He stood rooted to the spot, overwhelmed by a whirlwind of thoughts.

At that moment, An Qiao’s gaze turned towards the sea.

She saw that within the sea, a wave suddenly surged, tumultuous and resounding, reaching dozens of meters high, like a skyscraper.

The sound of the waves rose and fell, and the villagers present knelt even lower.

Any other desires that the village chief might have had due to Qi Yuan’s provocations were wiped clean by this display of celestial might and power.

An Qiao, witnessing this scene, had a solemn expression, "It truly is the Jade Blood Realm, just this surge of waves, and I already cannot contend with it.

That... girl is doomed."

The Sea God had not shown himself, but the mere act of welcoming the bride was astounding in itself.

Qi Yuan, however, was quite calm, "This show of force is so-so, the special effects aren’t really up to scratch."

An Qiao and the man in black combat attire automatically ignored Qi Yuan’s words.

Meanwhile, Qi Yuan was staring at the surface of the sea.

His eyes, enhanced by Qi Refinement-level spells, became sharper, allowing him to see farther.

However, even with the sea in between, he did not notice the true body of the Sea God.

Then, the Tracking Dog suddenly sniffed with its nose, "Eh, this scent... it’s very familiar, similar to the Aquatic Clan, no, wait..."

The Tracking Dog suddenly looked at Qi Yuan, its face filled with horror.

"It’s exactly the same as the scent on you."

"You are the Sea God!"

"What?" Shock jolted An Qiao’s heart.

The man in black combat attire’s face also showed shock.

Qi Yuan was the Sea God?

An Qiao suddenly recalled, it seemed Qi Yuan had never mentioned that he was one of them.

Moreover, how could a newlywed be so powerful?

Could it be that the Sea God had consumed the real groom, disguising himself as Qi Yuan?
