The morning atmosphere in Tianshan was chaotic. From low to high ranks, everyone was busy doing something. Tianshan Sector is full of martial artists from different sectors, clans, and wandering martial artists.
When the maids were getting Gu Jingjing ready, three light knocks came from outside the door. A woman's voice came from the other side of the door, "I brought tea and dessert for the lady."
One of the maid walked quickly to the door and opened the door. Si Meifeng walked into the room and put the tea and deserts on the table. She handed Gu Jingjing a cup of tea. Gu Jingjing took the teacup and was about to drink, but she smelled a strong tea fragrance, she raised her head to look at Si Meifeng, who spouted white smoke on her face.
In the hall where the wedding was held, Fu Yuanjun and other high rank elders were welcoming guests and accepting gifts from guests. Until Yuan Chaomei showed up with six men carrying the coffin. The six people put down the coffin in the middle of the hall.
Yuan Chaomei said, "Chief Fu, Chief Xian said that he doesn't need your coffin, so he wants to return it to you. Sunset Sector might not be rich but a coffin for Wen qianbei that… we can afford."
"What a vicious woman."
"No wonder Gu gongzi divorced her."
Yuan Chaomei didn't care too much about the evaluation of her by those martial artists. The curses of these martial artists were not as embarrassing as Yuan Zixin asked her to undress in front of people of Sunset Sector. Moreover, she was used to it, so their vicious eyes and words had no effect on her.
Yuan Chaomei looked at Fu Yuanjun with a bright smile. She said, "Leader Fu, congratulations on your success. I really hope your future is full of happiness." She turned around. "Let's go." She walked past Yuan Xiurong who was sitting next to Yuan Zixin and Rao Zhengsheng. She looked at Yuan Xiurong, smiled at her, and then she and the six men disappeared from the front door.
Walking down the stairs, Yuan Chaomei saw Fu Yuanjun standing there waiting for them. Yuan Chaomei walked to Fu Yuanjun and asked, "Does Chief Fu have anything to pass to our chief?"
Fu Yuanjun said, "Chaomei, I'm sorry. I am thinking if I'm at the top of the ladder, I can come for you, but in reality that's not the case."
Yuan Chaomei said, "Everyone has their own goals. Your goals are different from mine, so there is no need to apologize."
Fu Yuanjun reached out and grabbed Yuan Chaomei's right hand. He said "Chaomei, please forgive me. I really want us to be like before."
Yuan Chaomei slowly pulled her hand away. She said, "Leader Fu, there is only the past history between you and me. The red string of Yue Lao has long been cut. Today, no matter how hard we try to reconnect the string, the string will not reconnect without knots. Since the string has been broken, the relationship should end. I hold nothing against you, and you should not have any obligation to me. We should let the past stay in the past." She walked past Fu Yuanjun.
Fu Yuanjun said sadly, "I'm sorry."
Turning her back to Fu Yuanjun, tears slowly flowed down her cheeks. Yuan Chaomei said softly, "Goodbye, Li gege."
Fu Yuanjun watched Yuan Chaomei slowly disappear from his sight with the six people. When he was about to walk back, Ma Jingguo's cold voice stopped his feet.
Ma Jingguo said coldly, "A wedding without a bride, is that still consider as a wedding?"
Fu Yuanjun looked at Ma Jingguo, "What are you doing here?"
Ma Jingguo said, "Fu Yuanjun you should stop pretending to be a good person. If you haven't struck your needle into xiao shushu's chest, I might still fall for your acts, but whatever damages you have done, you have already done it." He looked at Fu Yuanjun. "You still have not answer my question."
Fu Yuanjun asked, "Then what do you want?"
Ma Jingguo said, "You really want others to believe that I killed Dandan. To be honest, you killed the wrong person. If you are smart, you should kill Yong Caixia."
Fu Yuanjun asked, "Ma ge please enlighten me. Why should I kill Yong guniang?"
Ma Jingguo sneered, "If you kill Yong Caixia, I will not stand in front of you today, but because you chose to kill Dandan. Today, you are dealing with me."
Fu Yuanjun said, "I have nothing to worry about, because I didn't kill anyone. Everyone knows that it was you, not me, who killed Chen guniang."
Ma Jingguo smiled bitterly, "Fu Yuanjun, keep my words firmly in your mind. I will teach you a lesson for you to remember for life. I will not kill you, but when you finally achieve something, I will come and take it away from you, just like you took xiao shushu away from me. The highest you climb, I promise you the faster you fall." He smiled and turned away. "Remember to check your wedding gift." He laughed loudly as he walked down the stairs.
When Fu Yuanjun returned to the wedding room, everyone was in panic. Elder Yan ran towards him. Elder Yan said, "Where have you been?"
Fu Yuanjun asked, "What's wrong?"
Elder Han said, "Gu gugiang's two maids said a woman kidnapped Gu gugian."
Fu Yuanjun, "What?" Then he suddenly remembered what Ma Jingguo said to him. "Where is the coffin?"
Elder Yen said, "We put the coffin in the back."
Fu Yuanjun rushed to the back of Tianshan sector with others martial artists and the nine elders of Tianshan. Fu Yuanjun unsheathed his sword, cut the rope, and slid the coffin lid over. As soon as the lid slid open, smoke came out of the coffin. Ten daggers shot directed at Fu Yuanjun. Fu Yuanjun redirect three of the daggers back at the smoke. Then they heard a soft snort.
When the smoke cleared, everyone could see Gu Jingjing pierced by three daggers. Fu Yuanjun's hand shook. He quickly rushed to Gu Jingjing's side and lifted her out of the coffin. He pulled her to the floor and hugged her. He saw blood pouring out of her mouth.
Fu Yuanjun called, "Lu yisheng. Lu yisheng."
Lu Yisheng quickly gave way to Fu Yuanjun and Gu Jingjing. He checked Gu Jingjing and said, "I'm sorry, I can't save her."
Fu Yuanjun asked, "Why?"
Lu Yisheng, "She took seven steps poison. I believe that when you helped her out of the coffin, she took her seventh step."
Fu Yuanjun's eyes were full of anger, and Ma Jingguo's voice echoed in his mind 'The highest you climb, I will make sure the faster you fall'. He gritted his teeth, "Ma Jingguo…"
Lu Yisheng said, "Leader Fu, I express my condolences for your loss."
Fu Yuanjun said, "Send a message to chief Gu and Gu furen. This wedding will be changed to a funeral."
One of the disciple said, "Yes, leader Fu."
"Chief Gu is on his way."
"Sunset Sector has gone too far."
"Capturing martial artists is not bad enough, he really want to announce himself as enemy of the Gu household and Tianshan Sector."
"That evil man."
The people inside the back of Tianshan Sector muttering everywhere.
Outside on the skirt of Tong Village, two martial artists were sitting there, chatting about the news of the martial arts world.
Martial artist one said, "The Demon Xin not only conquered Mangsha, but also conquered Sword Village. Jinfeng Sector, launched an attack to rescue those martial artists that was held captives in Mangsha, but they end up being captured."
Martial artist two asked, "What's next?"
Martial artist one said, "Demon Xin announced to the martial arts world that if anyone dared to sneak into Mangsha and want to rescue those captured martial artists, Demon Xin would kill all the disciples in that sector."
Martial artist two, "What does the six sectors do?"
Martial artist one said, "The six sectors dare do nothing. They were afraid their sectors disciples will be kill." He took a sip of wine. "I forgot. Some time ago, Demon Xin rushed into Tianshan and give leader Fu a coffin as a wedding gift."
The two martial artists curled their lips, "What…don't tell me that he killed the to be Fu furen?"
Martial artist one said, "No, he didn't, she was poisoned by seven steps poisoned. It turned out that leader Fu unknowingly rescued her from the coffin, and she took the last step and died in his arms."
Martial artist two, "What about the four households and Sword Village? Are they going to do about this?"
Martial artist one said, "Sword Village did not dare to take action, because Yong Taihua was captured and locked in a cage. Moreover, an elder in Tianshan was also captured."
Martial artist two said, "There are not many martial artists who can defeat Demon Xin. This time Shaolin will have to take action."
Mu Dishi rolled his eyes at the two martial artists. He put the money on the table and started walking towards Tong Village.
