At the same time, the Yang Family Ancient Martial Arts Arena was already packed with people. It was now nine forty, and guests from all walks of life were sitting in their seats, waiting for the ceremony to begin.
The front row is naturally the direct descendants of China's major aristocratic families. The higher the status in the family, the closer the position is to the front.
Next in line were the high-ranking military officers who came to congratulate. They sat on the same seats as the heads of the aristocratic families, and their children sat together with the most promising children of the aristocratic families.
After that, it was the direct descendants of the nine great families, and then those officials with little influence (here it means that they have little influence on the families), followed by the collateral branches of the families, and finally... the leaders and enterprises of various industries in China! It can be seen how much the families disdained these entrepreneurs.
"Brother Zitong, go!" Wang Mingxuan patted Yang Zitong on the shoulder. Yang Zitong smiled bitterly and could only serve as Liu Xun's alternative 'best man'.
Although this was just an engagement, the aristocratic family was different from the secular world. Even if it was just an engagement, there was an unmarried man and woman as guides! The Yang family had always been on good terms with the Liu family, so this task naturally fell on Yang Zitong.
Liu Xun felt a little restless, but this restlessness was not because there were many important people gathered here. He couldn't tell the specific reason. He just felt that it was a bit weird that Di Yi and Mu Feiyan disappeared suddenly.
"Bang! Bang!..." In the ancient martial arts arena of the Yang family, there is a large bronze bell. The bell is five meters in size and made entirely of bronze. At this moment, a loud noise came from the bell body, and the noise lasted for ten times, indicating that it was already ten o'clock!
In front of the bronze bell is a platform, which is not big, only about 100 meters in size! It is not made of stone, but a kind of jade, crystal clear, and emits a comfortable glow under the sunlight.
The ancestors of China were great. No one knew where this jade came from. Even history books did not record it! Even today's science cannot explain how such a large jade could exist in the world!
The value of this piece of jade, let's not talk about it for now, but everyone present knows that even a small piece of jade can be auctioned at a sky-high price in the outside world! Not to mention such a large piece! But even so, the Yang family only used it as a table.
Yes, it is indeed a platform. A long time ago, it was a platform for soldiers to go to war! In the past, it was an ancient martial arts referee platform for Chinese warriors to compete with each other. Now... it is the engagement platform for Liu Xun and Wang Kexin!
There were two jade chairs on the jade table, with two people sitting on each, one was Liu Shizong, the other was Wang Maoquan, and in the middle stood a person, the head of the Yang family... Yang Zhan, who was also the host of this engagement ceremony.
"What a grand ceremony, with the patriarchs of the nine great families presiding over the wedding personally. Even if it's the wedding of the next patriarch of a family, it wouldn't be more than this, right?" Zhang Tianfang said with a chuckle as he sat in the same seat with the direct descendants of the family.
"Yes, this engagement ceremony is of great significance." Wang Mingxuan said casually with a smile on his face.
"That's not enough. Chairman Hua Xia didn't even come to our brother Xun's engagement ceremony. That was really disrespectful! But considering it's an engagement, we won't blame him! Hehe..." Xiao Hei said honestly. Since Dapeng and the others were considered Liu Xun's direct descendants, they were also arranged in the front row.
Although Xiao Hei's words were not malicious and were just a joke, they still caused many senior military officials around to frown. Liu Zhang coughed lightly, glared at Xiao Hei, and said, "Don't say anything you shouldn't say. If you can't sit still, eat something."
"Haha, just a joke, just a joke..." Xiao Hei knew that his words had caused displeasure among many people, so he apologized to the senior military officials sitting around him.
"Who the hell is this Liu Xun? He can't even control his own dogs, and they bite everywhere." Soldiers are brave men. They don't care what the occasion is. If they are unhappy, they will say it out loud. Obviously, Xiao Hei's words just now made many people dissatisfied.
"Li Yang, today is a happy day, you better behave yourself." Before Dapeng and others could say anything, Zhang Tianfang's eyes turned cold and he shouted in a cold voice.
"Got it, Young Master Zhang..." Although the officer named Li Yang said this, there was still a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. However, due to Zhang Tianfang, he had no choice but to give up.
"Brother Tianfang, I'm sorry. My brothers are ignorant." Wang Yikai smiled apologetically at Zhang Tianfang, then looked at Li Yang and nodded as an apology.
"It's okay. Soldiers are quick-tempered, you know. He means no harm." Zhang Tianfang raised his glass to Wang Yikai as a return gift.
Liu Zhang's face looked very ugly at this time. He took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, put the wine glass on the table, and said softly: "I don't care how capable you are or how deep your background is, but today is my brother's engagement ceremony, it's a big day! Whoever dares to make trouble here, I dare not say anything else, but after today, you will die!"
"What Liu Zhang said is exactly what I want to say. Today is my sister's wedding day. I don't want to see anything unpleasant happen, no matter which side it is on!" As soon as Liu Zhang finished speaking, Wang Mingxuan also spoke.
"You really think you're something big. Wang Mingxuan has the qualifications to say this, but who do you think you are? How dare you say such nonsense?" Li Yang said with a disdainful smile. Both of them spoke loudly, so many people in the seats heard it.
Liu Xun and Yang Zitong were standing not far away. After all, Wang Kexin had not come out yet, so they couldn't go over first.
Liu Zhang narrowed his eyes slightly, and a murderous intent appeared on his handsome face. He didn't know how long it had been, probably almost a year. Since the establishment of the Liu family, Liu Zhang had never shown any murderous intent.
The faces of Dapeng and others also turned gloomy. Wang Yikai held a glass of red wine in his hand and did not say a word. They never took the initiative to cause trouble, but that did not mean they were afraid of trouble. Although it was Xiaohei who caused the trouble this time, since they had caused it, they could not be cowardly.
"What? Are you not convinced? Want a duel? Coward!" Li Yang walked up to Liu Zhang and said provocatively.
Wang Yixuan worriedly put her hand on Liu Zhang's arm, signaling him not to do anything. Liu Zhang knew he couldn't do anything, so he chose to ignore Li Yang. But he could ignore Dapeng, who had a bad temper.
But just as Dapeng was about to get up and start, Liu Xun's palm pressed on his shoulder, and then pressed him down on the seat. Almost at the same time, a fist hit Li Yang's face hard...
"Bang!..." Li Yang was punched three meters away by Liu Xun, and then crashed into a table, spilling the food and drinks on the table all over the floor. Li Yang's nose was broken on the spot, and blood flowed out. (To be continued)
