Chapter 1169: Si Mobai and Feng Tianlan
“Mobai, what about our promise? That we will never let each other down in this lifetime?
“Mobai, why can’t you see that she’s only an imposter? Why can’t you see that I am here? Why would you marry another woman? Why…”
…
Feng Tianlan grabbed Si Mobai’s hand tightly and shouted as she demanded answers from him, but she did not receive a reply from him.
The master of ceremonies glanced at the couple, and then sang, “Bow to heaven and earth!”
Si Mobai and his bride were facing outside the hall. The bride had already bent over, but Si Mobai stood firm with a straight back. He refused to bow even a little, because to him, the only person with whom he would bow to wors.h.i.+p heaven and earth with was his Lan’er.
This strange scene immediately surprised everyone, especially Luo Yunzhu, who was still hot-tempered. She became very angry. “What is the matter with him? It was he who wanted to marry Tianlan, and now that they are getting married, he looks like he is being forced into this. This is unacceptable, I’m going to bring Tianlan back and stop this ceremony. She cannot marry a man who is like this.”
Xiao Xiao, who stood on the side, nodded, rolled up her sleeves, ready to rush forward to grab Feng Tianlan.
Xi Lin and Mei’er quickly pulled Luo Yunzhu and Xiao Xiao back. “Let us wait and see. I have a feeling that something is not quite right about the Demon King today. Perhaps there is a reason why he is behaving like this. Moreover, if this is truly Tianlan’s wish, we cannot stop it. Let us take a look at the situation first.”
Feng Tianlan stood before Si Mobai and waved in front of him anxiously. “Mobai, you know that I am here, right? I am standing right in front of you. You must have a reason for marrying someone else, isn’t that right?”
The couple continued to stand like this, one bowing at ninety degrees and one standing with a straight back. In the meantime, there were more and more discussions amongst the crowd.
“Your Highness, I have already taken a step back, so don’t go too far, otherwise no one will receive a good end,” the bride said softly and discreetly.
Si Mobai frowned and clenched his fists. For Lan’er, he could only compromise.
Feng Tianlan stared at Si Mobai with her eyes wide open. She watched as he moved his body slowly, bowing down, about to reach the same angle as the bride. Her heart broke into pieces at this. “Si Mobai!”
Boom!
Following a loud sound, a stream of powerful spiritual force slammed over, pa.s.sing through the crowd, cras.h.i.+ng into the main hall where no one was sitting. It smashed a hole in the big ‘double happiness’ character on the wall, which symbolized happiness in marriage.
Feng Tianlan felt something rus.h.i.+ng over.
“Lan’er!” Si Mobai lifted his eyes to look at the person who had appeared in front of him. She was wearing a red dress and had a phoenix coronet on her head. This was the Phoenix Coronet and the Robes of Rank; this was the bridal outfit.
The bride lifted her bridal veil, and the two of them stood facing each other. Their faces looked very similar, and there were no differentiating features between them. The only difference was their wrists, one had a flower on it and the other did not.
When she heard Si Mobai calling her, Feng Tianlan was stunned. “You can see me now?”
“Lan’er.” Si Mobai looked at her calmly. He had not seen her for a long time and she appeared to have lost a lot of weight. She was so thin that it made him sad. Seeing her again, he just wanted to hold her in his arms, forget everything and leave this place with her.
“Mobai, she is an imposter! She is not me!” Feng Tianlan saw that something was wrong with the situation, so she stretched out her hand and pulled Si Mobai to her side, pointing at the other bride.
Since Mobai could see her, then he would also definitely be able to recognize who was real and who was fake.
The bride looked at Feng Tianlan with a light smile and did not seem to be surprised by her appearance. She even smiled provocatively, then lifted up her head and to look at Si Mobai with a gentle smile. “Mobai.”
As Si Mobai felt the icy coldness of Feng Tianlan’s small hand and heard the other bride’s voice, his whole body froze.
