Pill Saint, Weapon Emperor, Array God, Unparalleled in the World

Yao Ruobai stood there, clutching the letter in his hand.

She didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was somewhat eerie.

The senior brother waited for a while, and seeing that she still didn't speak, he urged her again.

"Senior Sister Yao, the Sect Master and Young Sect Master Gao are still waiting."

Yao Ruobai gave a cold laugh.

She folded the letter and tucked it into her sleeve. When she looked up, her face had regained its usual cold arrogance.

"Please tell my father that I suddenly feel an opportunity has come and I am preparing to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, so I am afraid I will not be able to get married as scheduled. This marriage will be discussed after I break through to the Foundation Establishment stage."

The senior brother was stunned.

The marriage was proposed by Gao Yang himself, who came to propose it in person. The sect leader is still waiting for a reply in the main hall.

My senior sister dismissed everything with a simple "opportunity is coming"?

But he knew Yao Ruobai's personality well; as aloof as he was, he never spoke empty words.

She said there was an opportunity; who dares to say there wasn't?

He wanted to say a few words of advice, but when he met Yao Ruobai's cold eyes, he swallowed his words back.

"Alright, I'll go and convey Senior Sister's message to the Sect Master right away."

He bowed respectfully, turned, and quickly left.

Ning Fei looked at Yao Ruobai. Although this senior sister was usually aloof, she was always steady in her actions.

Today, she used the excuse of "a breakthrough opportunity" to turn down Gao Yang's marriage proposal, which is not like her usual style.

Yao Ruobai's eyes flickered slightly as she turned to Ning Fei.

"Junior Sister Ning, let's descend the mountain immediately and head to Great Wilderness City."

"Until this matter is clarified, I will always have a knot in my heart. If it is not resolved, it will not only hinder my marriage, but also my spiritual practice."

Ning Fei was taken aback.

"Are you leaving already? I'm fine with that."

His gaze fell on Yao Ruobai. "Is it just the two of us?"

Yao Ruobai is the daughter of the sect leader, and has a noble status.

If anything goes wrong along the way, Ning Fei won't be able to explain it to the sect.

Last time I went to the Great Wilderness City, Hu Fei and Gu Yuanjie accompanied me. Although they were two good-for-nothings, at least they had a few more pairs of eyes to watch over me.

This time it was just her and Yao Ruobai, so it was impossible to explain what had happened.

Yao Ruobai was well aware of Ning Fei's concerns.

Just because she herself isn't afraid doesn't mean she can drag her junior sister along on an adventure.

Moreover, this matter has nothing to do with Ning Fei. She came to help, so there's no reason to make her take the risk.

"We can't let too many people know about this for now."

"Since Junior Sister has safety concerns, then I'll ask Uncle Wu to come with us."

Ning Fei's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Having Martial Uncle accompany us is the best thing."

Uncle Wu – Wu Jian, the elder of Kuangfeng Academy.

With a Foundation Establishment level nine cultivation, he possesses formidable combat power and wields the Gale Blade with unparalleled skill.

As long as we don't encounter any experts at the Golden Core stage, with him accompanying us, we can roam freely through the Great Wilderness City without any trouble.

Yao Ruobai said no more and turned to enter the inner courtyard.

Not long after, she came out dressed in a neat and stylish outfit.

The two walked side by side out of Tianfeng Courtyard and headed towards Kuangfeng Courtyard.

The main hall of the sect.

Gao Yang sat in the guest seat, holding a teacup, with a humble smile on his face.

Today he was dressed in a dark red brocade robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and his long hair was tied up with a golden crown, making him look quite respectable.

"Uncle Yao, my father also attaches great importance to my marriage with Ruobai. The marriage between the two families is a great thing for both Wuqing Sect and Liedao Sect. I wish to get married ahead of schedule, and I hope you will grant my request."

As he spoke, he took things out of his storage ring, all of them expensive gifts for their first meeting.

Yao Han sat in the main seat with a smile on his face.

Gao Yang, that kid, hasn't stopped saying nice things since he walked in.

However, the decision to move the wedding date forward is not something he can make alone.

If his daughter doesn't agree, no amount of talking will change anything.

"You're very kind, my dear nephew."

He smiled and nodded, glancing towards the outside of the hall. "Why hasn't Ruobai arrived yet?"

Gao Yang quickly said, "No rush, no rush. Sister Ruobai must have something important that has kept you waiting."

He said he wasn't in a hurry, but he shifted his position on the chair.

Yao Han frowned and began to mutter to himself.

Although his marriage was arranged by his parents, he always doted on Yao Ruobai.

That girl has always been proud and stubborn. If you force her to agree to something as important as moving the wedding date forward, she'll turn on her father for half a year.

Just as he was pondering this, he heard footsteps outside the hall.

Gao Yang's eyes lit up, and his back straightened up unconsciously.

He had already prepared his explanation in his mind. He refused to believe that Yao Ruobai could embarrass him in front of Yao Han.

But it wasn't Yao Ruobai who walked in.

It was the senior brother who had just delivered the message. Gao Yang's smile froze.

Yao Han was also stunned for a moment, and looked behind his senior brother, but there was no sign of him.

"Didn't I tell you to go and call your junior sister over? Where is she?"

Yao Han's tone was clearly displeased.

The senior brother glanced at Gao Yang, then strode into the hall and bowed in greeting.

"Reporting to the Sect Master. My junior sister suddenly sensed an opportunity and is preparing to focus on breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage. She said she might not be able to marry Young Master Gao as scheduled and hopes to wait until she successfully completes her Foundation Establishment before discussing it further."

He relayed Yao Ruobai's words verbatim, in a respectful tone.

Gao Yang's expression immediately changed.

An opportunity? Foundation building? What a coincidence!

He came to propose marriage, and Yao Ruobai suddenly had an opportunity? Who the hell are you kidding?

His handsome face flushed red and then turned pale. His first thought was that the news of the Great Wilderness City had already reached Yao Ruobai's ears.

That bastard Luo Chen must have leaked Julie's affair.

Otherwise, why would Yao Ruobai have come at the exact moment when he was about to propose marriage?

She's avoiding him.

Gao Yang forcefully suppressed the surging anger in his chest.

He couldn't lose his temper in front of Yao Han.

If he shows even the slightest anger, it would be an admission of guilt.

Yao Han, however, did not notice the change in Gao Yang's expression.

He looked excited, and his voice rose a little.

"If Bai is about to reach the Foundation Establishment stage? That's great news! The wedding date can be changed; this is a rare opportunity!"

He spoke with absolute certainty, his smile barely concealed.

He knew better than anyone what Foundation Establishment meant to a cultivator.

That is truly stepping into the threshold of spiritual cultivation, a transformation from mortal to spiritual.

My daughter is about to reach the Foundation Establishment stage; this is ten times more important than any marriage.

"Tell her to focus on her foundation-building cultivation. If she successfully completes the breakthrough during the marriage period, then the wedding can proceed as planned. If she emerges from her cultivation after the wedding, then it's not too late to choose another auspicious day."

The senior brother cupped his hands and replied, "Alright, this disciple will go and inform the senior sister immediately."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Gao Yang watched his senior brother's retreating figure disappear outside the palace gate.

His facial muscles twitched, forcing out a smile that looked worse than a grimace.

"Although I am eager to marry Ruobai as soon as possible, it is great news that she is about to establish her foundation. I am happy for her."

"Since I won't be able to see Sister Ruobai today, I'll return to the clan first. I'll also work hard to reach the Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible, so that I can be a good match for Sister Ruobai."
