Therefore, he had to ensure the safety of the Lord of Haida City first.
When they arrived, the auspicious time had just arrived.
And Hai Linglan was already waiting there.
Cultivators don't need to follow many rules when they get married. As long as they pay homage to the Heavenly Dao, they are considered married and become Daoist partners.
Therefore, there is no such thing as the man picking up the woman; it all depends on their own ideas.
However, Lin Yaoxie was a rather lazy person. So, without even discussing it with Hai Linglan, he simply decided to meet there.
Hai Linglan was a simple-minded person and didn't think too much about it, so she agreed directly.
He was even a little impatient, so he waited here in advance.
As soon as Lin Yaoxie arrived, he saw Hai Linglan sitting in the same sedan chair as him, dressed in a wedding gown with a red veil covering her head.
Then he got out of the car, took his hand, and walked towards the City Lord's Hall. Going to the Chengdu store also required climbing up one step at a time.
Lin Yaoxie was originally a man who cherished women, and this woman was determined to marry him, so he treated Hai Linglan with relative gentleness.
Hai Linglan was still immersed in the joy of her upcoming marriage to Xianlin, completely unaware that her father had become a cripple.
The two of them entered the city lord's hall hand in hand, but did not see Haicheng.
“~Huh, where is the city lord? Shouldn’t he be waiting here already?” the steward asked, somewhat puzzled.
At this moment, only the boy (of money) was standing under the crystal chair.
So the steward turned his questions to the boy.
The boy said with a blank face, "The city lord is still recuperating and will be out soon."
The steward also knew about the alternate dimension here, so he nodded, knowing that the city lord was probably at a critical stage of cultivation.
But he still found it strange that the city lord would choose to cultivate at this time. He always doted on his daughter, yet he was late for this.
Chapter 42 Everyone was shocked
Lin Yaoxie looked at the crystal chair. Now that he had the token, he could see what was happening in the other dimension.
Haicheng, with his white hair and frail appearance, sat there with his head tilted to the side, still unconscious.
Lin Yaoxie tucked the jade pendant into his sleeve and then waved it lightly. Haicheng emerged from it and landed directly on the crystal chair.
"Look, who's that?"
The elders standing on both sides of the main hall were all astonished.
Only the Lord of Haicheng is allowed to sit in this crystal chair. Why is there an 800-year-old man with white hair sitting on it at this time?
"Guardian, could you please explain what's going on?" an elder asked.
The boy said, "That is the city lord."
"what!"
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this. In their minds, a mature man was always tall, strong, and full of power. How could this be the old man who was thin, withered, and lifeless?
The old man was still fast asleep, not yet awake, and there was even a trace of drool drooling from the corner of his mouth.
The boy said, "The city lord has transferred all his magical power to the young master. Just last night, he wanted to support the young master to become the city lord."
This caused an even bigger stir, leaving everyone astonished.
Everyone knows that Haicheng was built by Hai Dacheng; otherwise, he wouldn't have named the city after himself.
He has been the city lord of this sea city for thousands of years and has never delegated his duties to anyone else. How could he possibly abdicate in favor of a son-in-law he has only known for one day?
The place was filled with eeriness.
His butler immediately had a terrible idea.
Having served Haicheng for hundreds of years, the butler knew Haicheng's temperament all too well.
On the surface, he appears virtuous and acts like a gentleman, guarding Haicheng. But in reality, he is a vain person who even established Haicheng simply to improve his own skills.
How could he possibly be willing to give up his position as city lord?
It's highly likely that this Lin Yaoxie is behind this.
Others didn't believe it either.
Because the city lord is still in his prime, he has not yet reached the point where he needs to pass on his skills to future generations to inherit his legacy.
“Tell me, Lin Yaoxie, was it you who did this? Did you forcibly absorb the city lord’s power?” Haiyun said.
He was one of the elders of the Hai family and held a good position within the family.
Their family has dominated Haicheng for many years, and given Haicheng's importance to their family's prosperity, Haicheng would never hand over Haicheng and its power without a word.
So they guessed it right away.
Others thought this obstruction was reasonable, so they all spoke out to condemn the evil spirit Lin.
Lin Yaoxie still wore his wicked smile, showing no change whatsoever because of these people.
Hai Linglan noticed the commotion outside, so she simply lifted the veil off her head.
The first thing he saw was his elderly father sitting in the crystal chair.
Even if others don't recognize their maturity at first glance, a daughter who has been pampered for hundreds of years will immediately recognize that it is her father's aging appearance.
"Father!" Hai Linglan cried out in a shrill voice, unable to accept it.
Chapter Forty-Three: Marital Breakdown
He was about to rush over to see his father, but Lin Yaoxie held his wrist tightly.
Hai Linglan turned around and looked at Lin Yaoxie, who was pulling her, with a look of surprise on her face.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing? I need to go see Father," Hai Linglan said.
Lin Yaoxie squinted and said:
"Now is the time for us to get married."
Hai Linglan broke free from her hand and said:
“My father has become like that, so naturally I have to go see him first. I’m sorry, Brother Lin.”
Then Hai Linglan flew directly to the crystal chair and poured her power into Hai Cheng's body. Hai Cheng's complexion then regained some color.
"You insist on blaming me for things you're unsure about, right?" Lin Yaoxie said.
The elders, of course, were not going to let it go. Haicheng had always been fine before, so how could this kid cause trouble as soon as he arrived? It must be because of him.
"Tell me honestly, what exactly did you do to Haicheng? And how did you acquire your skills? Tell me everything honestly, or you won't be leaving the City Lord's Mansion alive today," Haiyun said.
Lin Yaoxie smiled. He could tell that these people weren't really saying this for Haicheng's sake.
Especially in the question Haiyun just asked, he was eager to know how Lin Yaoxie transferred Haicheng's power to himself.
It seems he also intends to absorb Haicheng's power along the way.
"What do you think? I'm omnipotent!" Lin Yaoxie said.
"Looks like you're going to refuse a polite toast only to drink a forfeit. We'll have to teach you a lesson, won't we?" Haiyun said.
The others were also filled with righteous indignation.
"Tell us how you plotted to murder the city lord. If you sincerely repent, we might spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame us old men for being impolite," the elders said.
Hai Linglan, finally realizing Lin Yaoxie's danger, quickly treated Hai Cheng before flying down to protect her behind her. She then addressed the elders:
"Grandpas and uncles, it was definitely not Brother Lin who did it. I vouch for him."
The elders looked at each other in bewilderment. Everyone in Haicheng knew that Hai Linglan was the smartest, not to mention the Hai family. They all knew that Hai Linglan cultivated the Tongming Heart Method and was about to reach the Quasi-Saint level. At this moment, his mind was just like that of a ten-year-old child.
0oo is asking for flowers.....
Even if they wanted to fool Hai Linglan, they couldn't be too blatant in front of everyone, so they spoke in a tone as if coaxing a child:
..00
“Alan, be good. What you see is not the truth about this person. He is actually cunning and treacherous, and has done many bad things. He is the one who caused your father to become like this. You must not protect him anymore,” Haiyun said.
Hai Linglan shook her head and bent over, trying to prevent them from attacking Lin Yaoxie.
"No, please believe me, Grandpa and Uncle. Brother Lin would never be the kind of person to harm Father. Besides, Brother Tong just said that perhaps Father willingly passed on his skills to Brother Lin."
The old men were so angry they laughed; this little girl's IQ was truly incredibly low.
"Princess, can you please stop protecting this boy? What he did is obvious now, why do you insist on making things difficult for everyone?" (Haiyun Daoguang)
Chapter Forty-Four: Yes, I did it.
Hai Ling's face turned red, but she still didn't know what to say.
Lin Yaoxie told him to push him aside, and then faced these hypocritical elders directly.
"Alright, you old fogies, do you really think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Looking at this arrogant young man, Haiyun felt that Haicheng was getting his just desserts for being tricked by him.
They were clearly from the same family, but Haicheng reached the Saint Realm before all of them, and then became the head of the Hai family. Later, he directly established Haicheng and became its city lord.
Haicheng will never know how envious he is of everything he has, yet he remains oblivious, arrogantly flaunting all that he possesses.
Haiyun worked tirelessly to improve his skills, hoping to one day crush Haicheng under his feet.
But unexpectedly, he, Haicheng, was brought down by a single step, and was ruined by an ordinary person who knew nothing.
He actually really wanted to see Haicheng in his current state, yet he remained seated in the city lord's seat, watching the mocking expressions on everyone's faces.
That would be very interesting.
He intuitively felt that this young man must possess some kind of cultivation technique that could absorb internal energy, so he desperately wanted to have it so that he could absorb the internal energy of others and quickly step into the realm of a saint.
That's why he's so aggressive.
"Stop talking nonsense! The important thing is to tell us how you plotted to murder the city lord," Haiyun said.
Lin Yaoxie narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up only a little, making him look somewhat indifferent.
"You guys, are you all in such a hurry? You haven't even investigated anything yet, and you're already rushing to convict me, even trying to absorb my power. I admit I'm a bad guy. But you're a bunch of hypocrites, so you're not worthy to be the city lord of Haicheng!" Lin Yaoxie said.
He was truly proud of himself; he actually said something that a villain wouldn't dare to say, so he just made a cameo appearance.
