After being reincarnated, I cultivated immortality.

The woman smiled slightly and said, "To be honest, this wedding was my father's idea. He wants to marry me off today. The wedding ceremony is at 7 PM, and the guests haven't arrived yet."

"I see." Hua Rongyi nodded. "Then where is Jin Haoyu now?"

"He's in the back room. I'll have someone take you there," the woman instructed the maid beside her.

A moment later, the maid led Hua Rongyi and the others to a side room.

Pushing open the door, one sees Jin Haoyu dressed in wedding attire, sitting in a chair with a helpless expression.

"You've finally come! Please help me!" Jin Haoyu saw them as if they were his saviors.

"Oh, he's about to become a groom, what do he need our help for! Is he going to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber?" Ling Lili immediately teased.

Bai Shu, not wanting to miss out on the fun, chimed in, "Yes, yes, on the wedding night, a beauty enters your arms, tsk tsk tsk~"

Jin Haoyu was speechless, and gave Yunfan a look, asking him to control Ling Lili. Yunfan shrugged and gave a helpless look.

Although the others didn't say anything, their expressions betrayed their desire to watch the spectacle.

Finally, Hua Rongyi coughed lightly and spoke up: "Tell me, what exactly happened?"

"I was just watching the commotion when I got hit by the embroidered ball. I told them I was just passing by, but they wouldn't listen and insisted on tying me up, which is how this happened," Jin Haoyu explained simply.

Yunfan asked in confusion, "Even without spiritual power, with your skills, these mortals shouldn't have been able to tie you up, right?"

Speaking of this, Jin Haoyu got angry. "Hmph, they drugged me, otherwise I wouldn't be here. Judging from their practiced manner, they must have done this kind of thing, abducting innocent men quite often."

Bai Shu raised an eyebrow, came to Jin Haoyu's side, and took his pulse: "It really is nothing serious, just that you can't exert any strength. Come, come, I'll give you a couple of acupuncture needles." As he spoke, he took out gold needles and started applying them to his body.

Having regained his strength, Jin Haoyu said to Bai Shu, "You're such a good person!"

Bai Shu was speechless and said, "If you don't know how to praise someone, then don't praise them."

Chi Yi asked, "We just met Miss Ji. She didn't seem very keen on getting married. Has she come to see you?"

Jin Haoyu nodded: "Miss Ji Yan told me before that she was forced into this situation. Her father, Ji Shanhai, is very stubborn. Once he makes a decision, no one can change it. So she hopes that I will cooperate with her to go through the motions and find an opportunity to get away later."

Kong Bai said definitively, "You don't want to!"

“Of course I wouldn’t agree. As a cultivator, this is not a place you can just casually worship. Wouldn’t that just create unnecessary karma?” Jin Haoyu said matter-of-factly.

Several people nodded in agreement; that was indeed the case.

Lu Qiu asked hesitantly, "Shall we leave now?"

Jin Haoyu immediately replied, "Yes, yes, right now, immediately, let's go."

Chi Yi interrupted him: "Wait, to avoid hurting anyone, wait a quarter of an hour, Hua Rongyi, come with me."

The group watched as the two of them left the house, and a quarter of an hour later, the two of them carried eight sets of clothes belonging to the guards of the Ji family.

Everyone understood what was meant, and immediately put on their clothes, making their hair and faces look dusty and dirty. They also hid their weapons on their bodies if they could, and wrapped them in cloth and tied them with red silk as gifts from the guests.

The group went outside and dispersed. Once they were out of sight, Chi Yi opened the door and shouted, "Something's wrong! The groom is missing!"
