Chapter 737 Wedding Trouble
Ruan Shushu stood in the Wuliang Hall. Facing the Wuliang Sect Master, who had extraordinary cultivation and status, she was not afraid at all. She answered fluently and her words were sonorous, which made many people present secretly impressed by the courage of this young woman.
Of course, when many people understood the meaning of Ruan Shushu's words, they also looked at Huan Yin, who was standing next to Ruan Shushu with some surprise. His face had already become extremely embarrassed and complicated.
As for the Wuliang Sect Master, he felt a little annoyed after Ruan Shushu's words just now, and turned to Huan Yin and asked: "Yin'er, is what this little fairy said true?"
At this moment, Huan Yin already felt extremely headache. From the bottom of his heart, he really didn't want to marry Lan Yu today. And what he really cared about was actually the woman in the white dress who had just appeared. Although this was not reasonable, at least at this moment he had understood his true feelings.
As for whether to marry Lan Yu in the end, Huan Yin still has no definite idea, but feels deeply conflicted. However, if Ruan Shushu had not appeared here today, he might have some time to think about whether to bear the stigma and pursue sincerity, or to give up his true feelings and become a righteous person without stain in everyone's heart.
But I don't know if it's because Huan Yin has been thinking about Ruan Shushu today, and now she really showed up. And her appearance will undoubtedly intensify all the contradictions, and it is undoubtedly equivalent to forcing Huan Yin to make a decision immediately.
At this moment, Huan Yin just felt like an ant on a hot pot, and he could do nothing except being anxious. He had not made up his mind about the issue of Ruan Shushu and Lan Yu, so he had not made up his mind about the issue of his own master.
Finally, Huan Yin looked at Lan Yu who was completely silent beside him with a complicated expression, and then looked at Ruan Shushu on the other side. He gave up thinking and chose to respond to the truth without any emotion: "To reply to the Sect Master, what Ruan... Daoyou Ruan said... is true."
"What!" On the hall, Duan Yun crushed the teacup in his hand with a "snap", stood up, and cursed: "Who is this woman surnamed Ruan, why do you owe her a debt, and owe it so embarrassingly, and even put yourself in it?"
Huan Yin knelt down in front of Duan Yun. He felt that he didn't know how to explain it, so he could only kowtow to Duan Yun heavily without saying a word.
Ruan Shushu stood at the bottom of the hall and bowed to Duan Yun, saying, "Senior Duan, I am just a nobody, I don't have any special identity or background. As for how I owed this debt, it's a long story, I don't think you seniors have the time to listen to me slowly today."
"Senior, you should be concerned about what Huan Yin owes me. In fact, it's just an ordinary thing, the spirit stone."
"Spirit stone?" As soon as Ruan Shushu said this, many people around her made some surprised sounds, and some even laughed directly, thinking that Ruan Shushu made such a fuss just for the spirit stone. In their previous thoughts, they thought Huan Yin owed a huge debt.
The sect leader on the side waved his hand, motioning the somewhat excited Duan Yun to sit back. At this moment, he put on a smile and said to Ruan Shushu: "Fairy Ruan, it is only natural to pay back debts, and we, the righteous cultivators, will naturally not default on our debts. Since Fairy Ruan is now eager to get back the spiritual stones that Huanyin owes you, this sect master will make a decision for her here, and let the sect pay back the spiritual stones owed to you first. In this way, the fairy can leave with peace of mind, what do you think?"
The Wuliangmen Sect Master's face was full of calmness at this moment, and his words still did not damage the Wuliangmen's face at all, and even showed more of the style of the famous sect, which made many onlookers admire.
However, the Wuliangmen Sect Master could do this because he already knew that Ruan Shushu only wanted spiritual stones. As a large sect, even if he took out millions or even tens of millions of spiritual stones, it would be enough to buy enough face today and not lose face in front of other sects, and there would be no pressure. Even if it was a loss in vain, Wuliangmen could afford it.
As for if Huan Yin really made any mistakes in this matter, he could punish him slowly afterwards. As a sect leader, he thought he knew what was more serious and what was less serious.
However, after listening to the words of the Wuliang Sect leader, Ruan Shushu shook her head with some disapproval and said with a smile: "Sect leader, Huan Yin owed my daughter the spiritual stones, I'm afraid you really can't pay it back."
The sect leader also smiled, thinking that the little girl under the hall had never seen the world, and said: "How much do you owe me? Tell me."
"One billion." These two simple words came out of Ruan Shushu's mouth and were clearly heard by every cultivator present.
In the next moment, even the people with high cultivation levels present couldn't help but twitch their faces, thinking that they had heard wrongly.
"How much?" Duan Yun felt that his mind was a little dazed by the number that he had never heard in his life, so he asked.
"No more, no less, ten billion spirit stones. If Wuliang Sect is wealthy enough today and pays it back on behalf of Huan Yin, I will turn around and leave." Ruan Shushu stood up prettily and spoke.
Instantly, even the Wuliang Sect Master, who had always maintained his demeanor, lost his face. Are you kidding? One billion spirit stones, that would be enough to keep the entire Wuliang Sect operating normally for more than three to five years, right? Even if he was the master of a sect, it was impossible for him to help Huan Yin pay off such a terrible debt.
After a while, the Wuliang Sect Master thought of the crux of the problem, so he said, "Huan Yin is just a little junior in my sect, how could he owe you one billion spirit stones? Junior, don't lie."
Ruan Shushu took out a piece of white paper from her bosom slowly, and on the paper, it was full of black words and a red thing.
"This is the IOU, everything is written on it, and there is a red seal pressed by Huan Yin himself. If you don't believe it, you can take it and have a look. But I think the dignified Wuliang Sect Master should not destroy the IOU in front of so many seniors, right?" Ruan Shushu smiled.
The leader said nothing, but took the white paper from Ruan Shushu with some doubt. Then, his eyes swept across the white paper line by line, and his face became more and more ugly.
In the end, the face of the leader of Wuliangmen had turned livid, and everyone present saw the expression of the leader of Wuliangmen, and had guessed the truth.
"Since the leader has seen it, he must no longer have any doubts about everything. So, today I want to take Huanyin away. I still have a lot of things for him to do for me, because I said that he can pay off the debt by helping me. The debt of 1 billion spirit stones is not small. Before that, how can he be qualified to marry in the hall?" Ruan Shushu said, while directly pulling Huanyin, who was kneeling on the ground, up and said to everyone in the hall.
Then, Ruan Shushu smiled and looked at Huan Yin beside her, took one of his hands affectionately, and said gently: "Let's go, we still have a lot of things to do. If this worship today fails, I will give you 5 million spirit stones, okay?"
Then, Huan Yin, whose mind had long been blank and who had no strength in his body, was gently pulled by Ruan Shushu, and he moved two steps to the side like a walking corpse.
However, before the third step was taken, Huan Yin's other hand was grabbed by the person on the other side of him.
"You want to go with her?" Lan Yu, who had lifted the red veil by himself at some point, stared at Huan Yin, and in Huan Yin's memory, the pair of eyes that were originally only gentle, were now full of coldness.
Huan Yin didn't know how to answer Lan Yu's words, he just stared at Lan Yu woodenly, but he couldn't see Lan Yu, and Lan Yu only saw emptiness.
"Why, fellow Daoist Lan wants to stop it?" Ruan Shushu was on the other side, and her voice was also slightly cold.
Lan Yu sneered and said, "Today is my wedding day, and you are ruining it. It is obvious that you are coveting my husband. You have ulterior motives and are worthy of death! If I let you take Brother Yin away like this today, won't it be laughed at by the world?"
Ruan Shushu refused to give in at all and said, "The leader of Wuliangmen also said that it is natural to pay back debts. Do you think that Daoist Lan Yu wants to bully the minority in front of the righteous world today, take me, and shirk the debt?"
Lan Yu laughed and said, "Humph, what a natural thing! However, the fact that the seniors can't attack you today doesn't mean that I won't! I am just a little girl. You are trying to snatch my husband. I am fighting you alone, but I am not bullying you. It has nothing to do with the righteousness of Yangzhou! Today, let's see if you have the ability to walk out of Wuliangmen!"
After that, Lan Yu, who had been patient for a long time, finally broke out completely. She pulled Huan Yin with all her strength, and Huan Yin staggered and fell to the side of the hall. She then flew up, with a royal blue fairy sword in her hand, and stabbed at Ruan Shushu!
