In an instant, everyone was shaking like a sieve, their foreheads trembling uncontrollably as they kowtowed to the ground.

The Regent had once said that if he had not seen her in the Nine Sparrows Brotherhood when he had married her, he would have washed the entire clothing shop with his blood!

Everyone's minds were completely blank. Only the words from the Bloody Cleansing Shop could be heard floating in the air. Soon, all of them collapsed onto the ground.

The morning sunlight was not dazzling. Instead, it was so gentle that everything was clear and bright.

Xiao Lan sat in front of the dressing mirror and slowly turned her head to look at Xuanyuan Yun who was dressed in the morning light.

Xuanyuan Yun, who had always liked white robes, had changed into a bright red wedding dress. The dazzling red made his godlike appearance look even more striking, just like the white and embroidered Xuanyuan Feng was an elegant immortal, while the red wedding dress Xuanyuan was undoubtedly a demon who had fallen into the mortal world.

At this time, even the servants, whose lives were in danger, were dazed for a few seconds when they saw Xuanyuan Yun like this. However, the matter of the head was naturally more important, after a while, they began to panic.

Xuanyuan Feng strode forward with calm steps, passing through the trembling crowd that was on the verge of breaking down with fear, and slowly arrived in front of Xiao Lan. He casually picked up the wedding dress that Xiao Lan had thrown to one side with his slender, bony fingers.

Senior Servant Ji mustered up the courage to raise her head and practically begged for mercy, "Your Highness, it's the wangfei who doesn't want to wear this wedding dress. I hope Your Highness can forgive the servants and beg your highness to spare the servants."

Xuanyuan Wentian's long and charming eyes swept over the wedding dress in his hands. "This king knows. You all can leave first."

When everyone heard this, they immediately cried tears of joy. The Regent had spared them! He had spared them!

Senior Servant Ji and her servants quickly retreated.

Everyone left, and only Xiao Lan and Xuanyuan Yun remained in the inner room.

The air was filled with a suffocating pressure.

After a moment, Xiao Lan looked at Xuanyuan Yun with an ice-cold gaze. She knew clearly in her heart that she should remain calm, be rational and maintain a calm demeanor in response to this unfathomable man in front of her.

But she could not do it. She could not remain calm. She could not do it with her mind.

This feeling of being at a loss made her feel even more depressed and mad.

"Xuanyuan Yun, what exactly do you want to do?"

When Xiao Lan called out Xuanyuan Yun's name, a trace of iciness flashed past his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

Xuanyuan Yun slowly brought the bridal gown in his hand over to Xiao Lan. "Put it on."

Looking at the Xuanyuan Wentian before his eyes that was indifferent and calm to the point that it made one clench their teeth, Xiao Lan felt that he was about to go crazy.

Xiao Lan snatched the bridal gown from Xuanyuan Yun's hands and once again flung it to the ground. "I won't wear it!"

Seeing that the bridal dress was once again thrown to the ground, the coldness in Xuanyuan Yun's eyes could no longer be concealed as all of it appeared clearly in the depths of his eyes.

At that instant, Xiao Lan felt that even the room around her was so cold that it caused one to feel chills.

Xiao Lan's hands, which were under her sleeves, slowly curled up. This was her instinctive reaction to danger.

Xuanyuan Yun's frigid gaze lingered on Xiao Lan's body for a moment before he suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"You, you're the same. If you don't want to see the entire Wangshi Family killed and the head of You An falling to the ground, you pick up the clothes for me and then, put them on!"

Xuanyuan, the last sound of his voice was bone-chilling.

Xiao Lan instantly clenched his fists tightly. "Xuanyuan Yun, you're threatening me!"

Threats?

Xuanyuan Wentian indifferently looked at Xiao Lan. If she thought that this was a threat, then that was a threat. But in truth, he was only speaking the truth.

No one dared to stop him. Even the one sitting on the dragon throne would be smart enough to not say a word.

"This king will give you half an incense's time to put on your clothes, or else you will be able to see with your own eyes what will happen to the Yue Clan."

"You!" Xiao Lan viciously stared at Xuanyuan Yun.

Xuanyuan Yun's expression was deep yet did not change as he indifferently looked back at Xiao Lan.

The two of them stared at each other, unmoving.

Time was passing bit by bit, close to the time it took for half an incense stick to burn. Seeing that Xiao Lan was still unmoving, Xuanyuan Yun's eyes suddenly narrowed. His slender fingers carelessly lightly tapped a few times on the wooden table beside him.

This action caused Xiao Lan to be instantly shocked. She, Xiao Lan, also had such a movement. Before killing someone, she had thought about it!

Just as Xuanyuan Yun was about to stand up and walk out of the door, Xiao Lan grabbed onto his arm and quickly picked up the bridal dress with her other hand.

"I'll wear it!"

She couldn't let Cunningham be in any danger!

Xiao Lan quickly released the hand that was holding Xuanyuan Wentian's arm, pulling the complicated and peerlessly beautiful bridal dress over her body. After which, she swiftly pulled both of her arms into her sleeves.

However, this wedding dress was too complicated, all the way until Xiao Lan was drenched in sweat and wasn't able to properly dress herself properly.

Xuanyuan Wentian had been standing at the side, quietly watching. The profoundness of his eyes made it hard to guess what he was thinking.

After a long time, Xiao Lan was really discouraged, and she roared angrily towards the door.

"Get the hell in here and help me put on my clothes!"

"Yes." Outside the door, the auspicious mama practically jogged to Xiao Lan's side once more.

The crowd began to dress Xiao Lan once more. It was only after they had dressed Xiao Lan in the wedding gown that they noticed that Xuanyuan Wentian had not left yet.

The crowd's movements had become more or less stiff, and Grandma Lucky stole a glance at Xuanyuan Po.

Xuanyuan Feng's gaze was fixated on Xiao Lan's face, watching as the crowd helped her put on her clothes, watching as they helped her put on the Seven Apertures Mystical Golden Gem and her lips were painted red, and finally covered with a red bridal veil.

Despite having lived for so many years, Grandma Ch'i'i had never seen a wedding like this. The groom actually saw the entire process of the bride's wedding dress in the bride's boudoir.

After the bridal veil was covered, everyone couldn't help but look at Xuanyuan Yun with a helpless look in their eyes. According to the usual rules, a groom had to wait outside the mansion, and now this …

Xuanyuan Yun's gaze was still gathered on Xiao Lan.

Grandmother Ji Ling forcefully stirred the brocade handkerchief in her hands, her terrified expression forced to remain calm as she spoke humbly to Xuanyuan.

"Reporting to Your Highness, the bride is fully dressed."

Xuanyuan Yun didn't reply. After a long while, he strode towards Xiao Lan, directly lifting her up by her waist while everyone else watched in confusion and panic.

Due to Xuanyuan Yun's sudden movement, Xiao Lan, who was completely unaware, instinctively stretched out her arms and tightly hugged onto Xuanyuan Yun's neck.
