Wang Jiuling thought he would need to find another opportunity, but to his surprise, Gongsun Zhi came to his door early the next morning.

Gongsun Zhi told Wang Jiuling that he was getting married the next day and would be holding a grand banquet in the valley. He hoped that Wang Jiuling would do him the honor of attending.

This sudden request caught Wang Jiuling off guard.

Although he didn't know what Gongsun Zhi was up to, Wang Jiuling felt this was an opportunity.

He no longer needs to investigate secretly.

At that time, a direct confrontation would expose Li Mochou's true identity, leaving everyone speechless.

The valley indeed became lively the next day.

With red silk already hanging everywhere, Gongsun Zhi skipped many steps and got married directly in a large hall.

The rules of the Gongsun family are also strange; the servants and maids wear all sorts of masks.

The wedding was attended mostly by people from the Valley of Heartbreak, with only Wang Jiuling and a few other outsiders present, presumably all invited by Gongsun Zhi.

Wang Jiuling was seated in a prominent guest seat.

On the other side, Gongsun Lü'e led the disciples of Jueqing Valley to set out fruits and food, while her gaze subtly drifted toward Wang Jiuling.

Gongsun Lü'e's face was clearly a forced smile. As she passed by Wang Jiuling, she seemed about to say something but ultimately remained silent.

But when she looked at Gongsun Zhi who had arrived, a hint of determination appeared in her eyes.

"Gentlemen! Today is the wedding day of my Valley Master, the Valley of Heartbreak..."

Gongsun Zhi gave a speech, and then looked towards Wang Jiuling's seat.

"Master Wang's presence at my Valley of Heartbreak is truly an honor for our humble abode!"

All eyes were on Wang Jiuling.

Wang Jiuling responded by cupping his hands in greeting.

Gongsun Zhi smiled, but what he was thinking in his heart was probably only known to himself.

Soon, the atmosphere at the wedding reached its climax. Amid cheers from the crowd, Gongsun Zhi, dressed in wedding attire, walked onto the stage hand in hand with a woman.

The woman was also dressed in a wedding gown, with a red veil on her head.

"The auspicious time has arrived!"

"The newlyweds are getting married!"

Gongsun Zhi's disciple, Fan Yiweng, stood to one side and spoke loudly.

All eyes were on the stage, where Gongsun Zhi was already holding the bride's hand, preparing to bow to heaven and earth.

The atmosphere at the scene was very lively.

Gongsun Lü'e was standing next to Wang Jiuling at this moment. She pursed her lips, looked at the stage, and was about to grit her teeth and step forward.

But there was someone who was faster than him.

"Wait a minute!"

The sudden sound interrupted the wedding ceremony and drew everyone's attention.

Gongsun Lü'e turned around in surprise, only to find Wang Jiuling walking slowly out from behind the desk with his hands behind his back.

"Master Gongsun, I'm afraid I have to interrupt this joyous occasion."

The people around immediately started talking about it.

On the stage, Gongsun Zhi narrowed his eyes, forcibly suppressing his anger, and forced a smile, cupping his hands in greeting.

"What does Master Wang mean by this?"

Without wasting a word, Wang Jiuling pointed at the bride and revealed her identity.

"Li Mochou, I am here today, do you still intend to hide?"

"This female demon is ruthless and cruel, wreaking havoc on the martial world. We implore Valley Master Gongsun to do her a favor!"

Wang Jiuling spoke with righteous indignation and an air of integrity, which immediately drew discussion from those around him. The outsiders invited by Gongsun Zhi also looked at each other in surprise.

"Is the bride Li Mochou?"

At this moment, Gongsun Zhi's smile vanished.

"Master Wang, I don't know what you're talking about?"

"She is not Li Mochou; I think the Taoist priest must have made a mistake!"

Wang Jiuling shook his head.

"Why does Valley Master Gongsun pretend to be confused when he knows the truth? Why not verify it?"

Upon hearing this, Fan Yiweng stepped forward.

"Verification?? Hmph! My master sincerely invited you to the banquet, but you jumped out to cause trouble?"

"My master already said no! How do you plan to verify it? Are you going to physically lift the veil? You call yourself a respectable sect, how rude of you!"

Others were also pointing fingers and making comments.

Several martial arts practitioners invited by Gongsun Zhi also stepped forward.

"Master Wang, are you mistaken? How could Valley Master Gongsun have any connection with that Crimson Serpent Fairy?"

At this moment, Wang Jiuling stood in the center of the field, being pointed at and talked about by everyone.

Upon seeing this scene, Gongsun Zhi's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile.

"Master Wang! Please stop joking. If you continue, you might miss the auspicious time!"

"If I, the Valley Master, have been unsatisfactory in any way in my hospitality towards Daoist Wang, and if this has caused you any dissatisfaction, please bring it up after the wedding, shall we?"

Gongsun Zhi's exceptionally polite demeanor immediately impressed everyone else, making them perceive him as benevolent.

"Did you hear that? My master is talking to you!" Fan Yiweng pointed at Wang Jiuling.

Wang Jiuling took a deep breath and squinted at the seemingly righteous Gongsun Zhi on the stage.

I was shocked by this bastard's shamelessness.

Seeing Wang Jiuling being criticized by everyone, Gongsun Lü'e could no longer sit still. She hurriedly ran out, stood beside Wang Jiuling, and knelt down in front of Gongsun Zhi.

"Father! I beg you to think this through! If Li Mochou were to marry you, it would be a disaster for our Valley of Heartbreak!"

Gongsun Lü'e's actions immediately turned Gongsun Zhi's face ashen.

Those around were also shocked.

Gongsun Lü'e was, after all, Gongsun Zhi's daughter. Even if she wasn't usually favored by Gongsun Zhi, her words carried weight.

"Master Wang!"

Gongsun Zhi pointed at Wang Jiuling with a livid face.

"You disrupted my wedding today, and you even dragged my daughter along?"

"What have I, Gongsun Zhi, done to offend you?"

At this moment, Wang Jiuling remained calm and did not offer any explanation.

"Master Gongsun is really good at playing dumb, but I won't fall for it!"

"I'm determined to kill Li Mochou today!"

Wang Jiuling understood that he had to be firm at this moment and could not give up just because of a few moral accusations.

His body was surging with true energy, and he was ready to make a move.

Seeing Wang Jiuling's tough stance, the people from the Valley of Heartbreak stood up and subtly surrounded him.

Gongsun Lü'e's face turned pale.

"father!"

"Alright!" Gongsun Zhi waved to the others. "Step back!"

Then he stared intently at Wang Jiuling.

"Does the Taoist priest really intend to force me like this?"

Wang Jiuling nodded, his expression remaining calm. Gongsun Zhi closed his eyes, sighed, and then opened them again.

"But what if the bride isn't Li Mochou? How will the Taoist priest conduct himself then?"

"If not, I will give the Valley of Heartbreak a satisfactory explanation!" Wang Jiuling said firmly.

"good!

"Then I'll let the Taoist priest see to his heart's content!" Gongsun Zhi roared, grabbing at the bride's veil beside him.

"Master, you mustn't!" Fan Yiweng's eyes widened, and the surrounding guests and disciples of the Valley of Heartbreak were also shocked.

"Valley Master, you mustn't! Don't believe this Taoist priest!"

"You filthy Taoist priest! What are you really up to?!"

"Master Wang! You've gone too far!"

Wang Jiuling ignored him and stared intently at Gongsun Zhi's movements.

Gongsun Zhi suddenly lifted the bride's veil, and the next second, Wang Jiuling was stunned.

Gongsun Lü'e was also stunned.

Because under the veil was not Li Mochou, but a stranger's face.

"Master Wang! Look closely! Is she really Li Mochou?!"

Gongsun Zhi pointed at the bride and said angrily.

Wang Jiuling fell silent. He immediately looked at Gongsun Lü'e, only to find that she was also filled with shock.

Wang Jiuling immediately realized that Gongsun Lü'e was not deceiving him.

It was Gongsun Zhi, that old fox, who set a trap for them.

"Father! She..." Gongsun Lü'e was about to speak when Gongsun Zhi shouted and interrupted her.

"Enough! Green Calyx! How long are you going to keep this up?!"

Seeing Wang Jiuling fall silent, everyone was now completely enraged and began to point at him and berate him.

"Pah! This is supposed to be a reputable sect? What a load of rubbish!"

"It's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage!"

Fan Yiweng jumped out. "See that? Is that Li Mochou? Say something!"

"Didn't you say you wanted to give us, the Valley of Heartbreak, an explanation? I'd like to see how you plan to explain!"
