#130 - A big disturbance at the wedding! The demon appears

Song Haitang was very clear.

Whether it was the Song family or the Governor, in the eyes of these big shots, she wasn't actually that important.

The Song family needed to rely on the Governor's power, and the Governor also needed the Song family's wealth to help him gain a firm foothold.

The union of the two families was a matter of mutual benefit.

The marriage was just a means to that end.

Even without Song Yunxuan's body, the two families would still unite in other ways.

Therefore, no matter how she struggled, the result was already destined.

Thinking of this, a trace of determination flashed across Song Haitang's pretty face.

Now that her soul was in Song Yunxuan's body, she certainly couldn't let this wedding go smoothly...

Just then.

A hand suddenly reached out from behind Song Haitang and covered her mouth.

But...

When she saw who it was, she was immediately stunned.

"Shh!"

Zhao Zheng made a gesture of silence, then released his hand from her mouth and whispered, "There's a Transformation Realm martial artist outside, so we can speak softly."

Song Haitang immediately asked, "Why are you here?"

"Seeing that you hadn't met up with me, and hearing the news that the Governor was about to have a grand wedding, of course I had to come and see."

"It's very dangerous here..."

"Don't worry."

Zhao Zheng smiled and said, "Since I dared to come, I definitely have a plan!"

Hearing this.

Song Haitang immediately felt relieved.

She knew how outstanding Zhao Zheng was, and even more so that Zhao Zheng's abilities were stronger than any new student.

However, after thinking about it, she still said, "Then we should leave here tonight while it's dark! There's a very powerful expert by the Governor's side, and he'll come to the Song residence tomorrow to investigate for danger. If we wait for him to come, we won't be able to leave."

Hearing this, Zhao Zheng smiled and asked, "What realm is that expert in?"

"Blood Exchange Realm!"

Song Haitang's pretty face was solemn.

Zhao Zheng was very disappointed: "Too weak, not fun!"

Song Haitang: "..."

Zhao Zheng smiled again and said, "I'm already at the peak of Spirit Refinement, killing a Blood Exchange Realm is no different from killing a chicken."

Song Haitang looked at Zhao Zheng in surprise.

However, thinking about this man's past performance, it seemed very normal.

She showed a relieved smile.

With Zhao Zheng here, the problems that had been bothering her were no longer problems.

"Haitang, you've been trapped for a month, do you want revenge?" Zhao Zheng asked.

Song Haitang glanced at Zhao Zheng and shook her head without even thinking, "I'm just trapped here and can't go out. No matter what, my current identity is still the Song family's direct daughter. The Song family won't mistreat me, and they serve me good food and drinks every day. Life isn't bad."

"On the contrary, you have to compete with others every day, and you must have experienced many dangers to have today's achievements, but I can't help you..."

Hearing this, Zhao Zheng immediately smiled and said, "Hey? You're my fiancée, there's no need to be so clear about it."

Song Haitang didn't refute, just said, "Forget about taking revenge for me, it's good enough to complete the mission smoothly."

"How can that be?"

Zhao Zheng immediately objected, "No matter what that damn Governor's purpose is, since he dares to have designs on you, as a man, I must show something! And also earn some Martial Arts Points."

Song Haitang was first helpless, then thought of something, smiled and said, "As long as you're confident, you can do whatever you want!"

"Okay, my plan is very simple. I'll stay by your side these two days to protect you. On the day of the wedding, I'll dress up as the bride and give that Governor a big surprise..."

Zhao Zheng's voice had just fallen.

Footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, a voice rang out at the door:

"Miss, I've brought you food."

Without Song Haitang saying anything, Zhao Zheng leaped up, as light as a swallow, and climbed onto the roof beam.

Seeing that Zhao Zheng had hidden himself well, Song Haitang then said, "Come in!"

Having received her permission, the room door was then pushed open.

A maid walked in with a tray.

Zhao Zheng glanced at the maid and found her unfamiliar, as if she wasn't the maid he had seen in the carriage before.

It seemed that Song Haitang's personal maids had been replaced by the Song family's head.

"Miss, would you like me to serve you your meal?"

The maid placed the tray on the table in the outer room and asked.

Song Haitang immediately said, "No need."

"Then... Miss, please eat slowly, I'll come back later to take away the dishes."

The maid said, and prepared to leave.

When she walked to the door, Song Haitang suddenly said, "Bring more food these two days."

Seeing the maid's confusion, Song Haitang said, "I'm about to get married, and I want to taste more of the family's food in the last two days."

This reason was very strong.

The maid couldn't say anything at all, and immediately said, "Yes, Miss."

As soon as the maid left.

Zhao Zheng jumped down from the roof beam.

He landed silently, showing amazing agility.

"Haitang, where's your previous maid?" Zhao Zheng asked.

Song Haitang truthfully said, "She was punished by the Song family's head to go to the laundry room."

Zhao Zheng nodded and looked at the food on the table.

Although these foods were exquisite, the quantity wasn't much, and it wasn't enough for two people to eat.

Song Haitang's instructions just now were very thoughtful.

"I'm not hungry, there's still dessert in the afternoon, you eat it!" Song Haitang said.

Zhao Zheng was indeed a little hungry, so he didn't stand on ceremony and began to eat.

It was said that once one reached the "Seeing the Divine" realm and became a terrestrial immortal, one could even abstain from grains and be fine without eating anything for several months.

The Spirit Refinement realm was not yet capable of that.

"As expected of a wealthy family."

Zhao Zheng took a few bites and commented, "The taste is indeed good."

Song Haitang asked, "You just said that on the day of the wedding, you'll replace me as the bride? But your body shape is quite different from mine, that Governor will definitely be able to see it at a glance."

"It's okay, I can shrink my bones."

Zhao Zheng said with a smile.

When martial arts reached his level, any means could be used with ease. Even if Zhao Zheng hadn't learned the Bone Shrinking Skill, changing his body shape was very easy for him.

Zhao Zheng stood up, his body swayed for a while, and his height shortened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

His skeleton was also shrinking.

In the time it took for a few breaths, his body shape looked almost the same as Song Haitang's.

"How is it?"

Zhao Zheng asked with a smile.

"Amazing!"

Song Haitang exclaimed, "I didn't expect martial arts to be so magical, and have the same effect as those superpowers that can change body shape."

Zhao Zheng waved his hand while returning to normal, "It's still far from superpowers. Like that Rubber Fruit user in our class, his body can stretch for dozens of meters, bone shrinking in martial arts can't do that."

Song Haitang smiled, looked at Zhao Zheng gently, and said, "Zhao Zheng, tell me about your experiences during this time!"

It seemed that Zhao Zheng's appearance completely relaxed her, and she was also very bored after being trapped here for a month.

At this moment, Song Haitang just wanted to talk to Zhao Zheng more.

...

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye.

Two days passed.

Early this morning, the Song family's mansion became exceptionally lively.

The servants got up early and began decorating the residence.

Cleaning, pasting "囍" (double happiness) characters, and preparing for guests.

Everywhere was decorated with lanterns and colorful hangings, filled with joy.

By ten o'clock in the morning, guests arriving to offer congratulations began to arrive in a continuous stream.

Almost all the important figures in the city came.

Even people from other places came in large numbers.

After all, who would dare not show respect when the Governor-General was marrying a daughter of the Song family, after receiving an invitation?

The wedding began.

The Governor-General finally appeared, toasting the guests.

The reason there was no wedding ceremony was because the Governor-General was marrying a concubine!

The wedding ceremony is a "bow between husband and wife."

A concubine is not qualified to bow to the husband's family.

In ancient times, marrying a concubine usually only involved a sedan chair to bring the person back, going through the motions.

Even entering the husband's house couldn't be done through the main entrance; they had to enter through the back door.

This was the treatment of a concubine.

The Governor-General's willingness to hold a grand affair was entirely to give face to the Song family.

The lively wedding lasted for half a day.

Soon.

The sky darkened.

Under the encouragement of a group of people, the Governor-General came to the Song family's eldest daughter's boudoir, preparing for the wedding night.

"Governor-General, a moment on this spring night is worth a thousand gold taels!"

"That's right, I've heard that the Song family's eldest daughter is a famous beauty in Foshan."

"Haha… Your Excellency, please proceed, we will continue drinking."

…

The noise outside transmitted into the room.

Inside the room, on the wedding bed, sat a bride in a bright red dress, with a red veil covering her head.

However.

Underneath the red veil, the face was not that of the Song family's eldest daughter, but a man.

It was Zhao Zheng.

Hearing the voices outside, Zhao Zheng revealed a cold smile, planning to play a good trick on the Governor-General when he entered.

"Creak!"

Finally.

The door to the room was pushed open.

A middle-aged man in his forties with a long braid, was helped in.

The Governor-General seemed to have drunk too much.

However.

As soon as the others left the room, the Governor-General immediately returned to normal.

Although Zhao Zheng was covered with a red veil, he could still sense that the Governor-General who came in walked with vigorous strides and had an extraordinary aura.

He didn't seem drunk at all.

Suddenly.

Zhao Zheng's expression changed.

Because he smelled a strange, fishy odor.

This smell was very faint; ordinary people couldn't smell it at all, and even innate experts probably couldn't smell it.

However, Zhao Zheng had reached the peak of refining the spirit, and his perception was very strong.

And this strange, fishy odor was coming from the Governor-General, approaching him.

How could a person emit a fishy odor?

Zhao Zheng thought of a possibility.

He secretly prepared himself, immediately abandoning the thought of playing tricks.

"Hmm?"

The Governor-General on the opposite side seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and stopped when he was less than five meters away from Zhao Zheng.

The next moment.

Without saying a word, the Governor-General suddenly attacked, using a grappling technique to grab Zhao Zheng.

Seeing this, Zhao Zheng could no longer hide and immediately lifted the veil to meet the attack.

At the same time.

He finally saw the Governor-General clearly.

The other party looked very young, less than forty years old, with a potbelly and a slightly fat figure.

His appearance was very ordinary, his face was pale, his eyes were dull, and his dark circles were heavy, making him look very unhealthy.

A normal man looking like this would generally be considered by doctors to have had his body hollowed out by wine and women.

The Governor-General's appearance made him look like a good-for-nothing.

The only thing he could boast about was probably his height.

He was more than 1.8 meters tall.

However.

This was only the Governor-General's appearance.

At this moment, what Zhao Zheng could see was that the Governor-General's body was flowing with dark green blood!

Moreover, his energy and blood were extremely strong, but the temperature was very cold.

Like a cold-blooded animal.

That was not human blood at all.

So the result was obvious: under the Governor-General's skin was a monster!!

This Governor-General was a member of the demons!!

No wonder he could become the Governor-General of Liangguang at such a "young" age.

This was a high-ranking and powerful position, equivalent to a local emperor.

These thoughts flashed quickly through Zhao Zheng's mind.

At this moment.

The Governor-General's grappling hand was already grabbing towards his face.

Seeing this, Zhao Zheng didn't think, and slapped out a palm.

…

Outside the door.

Seeing the Governor-General being sent to the bridal chamber, a group of high-ranking officials didn't leave immediately.

Because they were staggering and couldn't stand firmly.

At this moment, they were being accompanied by the Song family's patriarch.

"Distinguished sirs, the Governor-General has my daughter to serve him, we don't need to worry!" The Song family's patriarch greeted: "Let's go back and drink."

Although he was only a merchant.

However, now that his daughter had married the Governor-General, even if she was only a concubine, he, as a father, could also rely on his daughter's status and be qualified to greet these dignitaries.

"Haha, that's right!"

"Let's not disturb the Governor-General's enjoyment."

"Let's go, let's go, let's eat and drink, we won't return until we're drunk tonight!"

Seeing the crowd supporting him.

At this moment, the Song family's patriarch was in high spirits, feeling that his decision to marry off his daughter was extremely correct.

He usually had to bend over and humbly greet these officials who came to drink.

If there had been no marriage, where would he have today's prestige?

Moreover, the Governor-General had already promised that after today, the grain business in Liangguang would be handled by their Song family.

This was a huge business!

If it was successful, his Song family would definitely become a local prominent family.

Just as the Song family's patriarch was imagining a bright future.

An accident happened!

"Boom!!"

A huge roar suddenly came from the Song family's eldest daughter's boudoir.

Like a thunderstorm, it was shocking.

The next moment.

With a "crack," a figure crashed through the door and flew out of the room.

The sudden change instantly attracted everyone's attention.

It also sobered everyone up by three points.

When everyone looked closely, they were horrified to discover that the one who had flown out was actually the Governor-General.

"It's the Governor-General?"

"What's going on? Is there an assassin in the room?"

The moment the Song family's patriarch saw the Governor-General flying out of his daughter's room, he was simply terrified.

For the dignified Governor-General to be assassinated in his mansion, how could this be allowed?

If the Governor-General died, their Song family would definitely not be able to escape responsibility afterward…

"Governor-General!"

The Song family's patriarch cried out strangely and hurriedly rushed forward.

What he could do now was to ensure that the Governor-General was not in mortal danger!

However.

The Song family's patriarch only ran a few steps before stopping abruptly!

He stood in place, his expression becoming horrified.

Not only him.

The others were the same.

Because the Governor-General they were trying to curry favor with, after getting up from the ground, began to shed his skin.

Revealing the sharp claws and scales hidden inside the skin…
