The air in the wedding hall seemed to freeze.

Yang Yifang's fingers tapped on the armrests of the rosewood chair, making a dull sound, and each tap seemed to be hitting everyone's heart.

The head of the Yang family, who was known for his "flawless life", now had a terrifyingly gloomy expression on his face.

"Wooden man, straight." Yang Yifang's voice was low, each word weighing heavily. "Tell me the truth, have you colluded with the demon clan?"

Everyone's eyes were focused on the groom.

The wooden man opened his mouth and was about to answer, when suddenly——

A barely perceptible golden light flashed across his eyes, so fast that even Yang Yan, who was standing nearby, didn't notice it.

Mu Renzhi's panicked expression instantly turned into determination. He straightened his back and said loudly, "I didn't collude with the demon clan!"

This sentence was like a huge rock hitting the calm lake, causing thousands of waves.

"What?!" Xiao Wancheng's eyes widened suddenly, "You just clearly..."

Upon hearing this, Butler Fei suddenly turned his head to look.

In all his life, this was the first time he had seen someone change their words so blatantly in public.

Yang Yifang frowned and continued to ask, "Then Supervisor Xiao said someone saw you release the monster without permission. Is that true?"

Mu Renzhi suddenly showed a simple and honest smile and scratched his head: "Father-in-law, I just had a brain cramp. What I said is nonsense and cannot be taken seriously!"

As he spoke, he made an exaggerated face, looking like a mentally retarded idiot.

"You!" Xiao Wancheng was so angry that he was shaking all over, and his fingers were trembling as he pointed at the wooden man. "What a crazy fool! Everyone here heard it..."

"Who heard it?" Yang Jian suddenly interrupted, looking around innocently, "Why didn't I hear it?"

The eight-year-old child's voice was clear and pleasant, but it sounded like a slap in Xiao Wancheng's face.

What made him even more annoyed was that after Yang Jian said this, the guests who were originally whispering suddenly fell silent, looking at their noses and their hearts, as if nothing had happened just now.

Because they all knew the real purpose of the Xiao family coming here today.

In addition, the Xiao family's arrogance makes them unwelcome in the entire Taoist Alliance.

Xiao Wancheng's face turned pale. He walked past Yang Jian and stared at Yang Yifang. "Master Yang, is this the attitude of your Yang family? In front of all the other families in the Dao League, you allow your son-in-law to act crazy and stupid?"

Yang Yifang's gaze swept across his daughter, son-in-law, and grandson, finally settling on Xiao Wancheng's face. He revealed a hint of apology: "Excuse me, Supervisor Xiao, but my son-in-law has had a weak mind since he was young. He tends to talk nonsense when he's around other people."

He shook his head helplessly as he spoke, "If Yan'er didn't like it, I wouldn't..."

These words were spoken with such sincerity and heartfelt feeling, coupled with the wooden man's drooling appearance, it was hard to tell whether they were true or false.

The meaning of the words here is very clear. Mu Renzhi said that the Yang family is in Baoding today.

At this time, the inspectors who had fallen to the ground also stood up and came behind Xiao Wancheng.

Seeing the momentum as if they were about to surge forward, Yang Jian naturally took the initiative.

A slash came down, leaving a crack under the feet of Xiao Wancheng and others.

"Yang, let me put this on notice. If anyone dares to take a step forward, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Good! Very good!" Seeing this, Xiao Wancheng laughed in anger. "Master Yang is shielding a criminal today. The Dao Alliance will hold him accountable one day. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"

He turned around abruptly and was about to lead his men away when Yang Jian suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

Xiao Wancheng paused as the silver-striped child slowly walked up to him and held out his hand: "Have you forgotten something, Inspector?"

"what?"

"Evidence." Yang Jian blinked. "Didn't you say there was a deputy captain to testify? Where is he?"

Xiao Wancheng was speechless for a moment.

He did arrange for a witness, but that person was currently in a mining area three hundred miles away, and he had planned to confront him after capturing the wooden man.

"It seems there are no more." Yang Jian sighed in disappointment and turned to look at Butler Fei. "Does the Dao Alliance need no evidence to arrest people now?"

As the representative of the Wang Quan family, he had to step forward to smooth things over: "Well... Supervisor Xiao, since the witness is not here, why not come back another day..."

"No need!" Xiao Wancheng gritted his teeth, "Let's go!"

After the Xiao family members left in disgrace, the tense atmosphere in the wedding hall finally relaxed.

Yang Yan hugged the wooden man tightly, tears welling up in her eyes: "You scared me to death!"

The foolishness in Mu Ren's eyes had long since disappeared, and he patted his wife's back gently: "It's okay, it's okay..."

Yang Yifang walked up to Yang Jian and whispered, "Jian'er, it was you just now..."

"A little trick." Yang Jian smiled slightly, a silver line between his eyebrows faintly visible. "I just temporarily modified my uncle's memory."

Yang Yifang took a breath of cold air.

Modify memory?

This is not just a "little trick", it can even control people's souls!

Just now, when he glanced at the wooden man, he realized something was wrong. Then, seeing Yang Jian's tough attitude, he naturally understood.

How many abilities does this grandson of mine have?

In addition, Yang Jian had just used thunder and lightning to directly injure Xiao Wancheng.

This was something no one present had expected.

Butler Fei came over at some point and looked at Yang Jian meaningfully: "Little guy, I've lived for so long, but this is the first time I've seen such a wonderful 'playing dumb' scene."

He didn't know how many years had passed before he saw such a courageous young man again.

Moreover, in terms of strength, he can be regarded as the best among the younger generation he has ever met!

Yang Jian bowed politely, "Thank you for the compliment, Steward Fei. It's all thanks to my uncle's acting."

The three of them smiled at each other, understanding each other tacitly.

Some things are better to be seen than spoken.

The joy rang out again and the wedding continued.

When the cry of "Send her to the bridal chamber" was heard, Yang Yan suddenly pulled the wooden man straight to Yang Jian.

"Jian'er, thank you." Yang Yan's eyes were red as she hugged her nephew tightly. He was only eight years old but had saved her from danger many times.

She just realized that her husband's strange behavior just now was not his real behavior.

But she was not stupid, and when she saw Yang Jian's tough attitude, she understood everything.

She was filled with gratitude towards her nephew, who was as talented as a demon.

Mu Renzhi was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Yang Jian held him back: "Uncle, you are embarrassing me. Just be nice to my aunt in the future."

Mu Renzhi's eyes were filled with determination at this moment. "I, Mu Renzhi, swear here that I will never let Yan'er down, and I will never let the Yang family down!"

Yang Jian smiled and nodded, but his eyes passed through the wedding hall and looked into the distance.

The wedding soon came to an end.

At this time, three figures came over.

"Jian'er, let me introduce you. This is the eldest son of the Wang Quan family, Wang Quan Baiye!"

"This is Baiye's younger sister, Wang Quanzui, the second daughter of the Wang Quan family!"

Chapter 133 The invitation of the king

Wang Quan Baiye bowed and said, "I am Wang Quan Baiye, and this is my sister, Wang Quanzui."

He introduced sideways, his voice filled with the special fondness of an older brother.

"Yang Jian." The young man briefly gave his name as a greeting.

Wang Quanzui looked curiously at the boy in front of her who looked not much older than her.

She had heard rumors about the Yang family's divine eyes a long time ago, but this was the first time she had seen such a special eye - especially the silver line, which glowed like a star in the setting sun.

"Yang Jian..." Wang Quan Baiye suddenly said seriously, "Can I call you that?"

Yang Jian nodded, already guessing what the other party was going to say.

"I'd like to invite you to join us." Wang Quanbaiye stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with a fiery light. "Together, let's explore the truth of this world!"

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

Yang Jian did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to his brother.

Yang Yitan's eyes immediately became vague, and he pretended to be very interested in the ants on the ground.

really......

Yang Jian sighed in his heart.

I think it was probably my elder brother who betrayed me, which led to the other party specially inviting me.

However, he had no interest in playing with them. The so-called exploration of the truth of the world was nothing more than a group of rich second-generations bravely venturing into northern Myanmar.

"My brother should have told you." Yang Jian brushed off the non-existent dust on his sleeves. "I'm not interested in this kind of thing."

He paused, his tone as calm as if he were discussing the weather. "Whatever you want to do is your freedom. It has nothing to do with me."

Originally, Yang Jian was prepared that Wang Quan Baiye would continue to pester him and persuade him to join them.

But unexpectedly, the king's hegemony did not continue to linger.

He was silent for a moment, then clasped his fists and bowed solemnly: "I'm sorry for being rude."

Before turning around, he nodded to Yang Yitan: "Yitian, we're leaving first. We'll contact you later."

"Yeah." Yang sighed and forced a smile.

When the figures of Wang Quan and his sister disappeared at the end of the corridor, Yang Jian suddenly took a step forward and put his arms around Yang Yitan's neck.

"What do you mean?" He narrowed his eyes. "You're hiring someone to act as a lobbyist?"

"It's unfair!" Yang Yitan shouted exaggeratedly, trying to break free from his brother's grip.

"It was Brother Baiye who insisted on asking you in person! I've told you eight hundred times, but you're not interested!"

Yang Jian let go of his hand and looked at his brother with a half-smile: "How many people do you have now?"

"Just the three of us." Yang sighed and rubbed his neck. Suddenly his eyes lit up. "What? Changed your mind and want to join?"

"You're overthinking it." Yang Jian rolled his eyes.

"I'm just curious. Besides a bunch of you clueless people, who else would be so bored as to join an organization that 'explores the truth about the world'?"

"What do you mean by boring!" Yang Yitan suddenly got angry and started gesticulating with his hands.

"This is the greatest action in the history of the Dao Alliance! It is to uncover the truth of the world! It is to..."

"Ah, right, right." Yang Jian nodded perfunctorily and scratched his ears. "You are right."

Yang Yi sighed and stamped his feet, but he couldn't do anything about this evil brother, so he could only turn his back angrily.

Looking at his brother's childish behavior, Yang Jian's mouth corners unconsciously rose.

The calm and introverted Yang Yitan in the original novel has become much more lively because he has had his younger brother by his side since childhood.

This is fine...

Otherwise, Yang Jian would not be able to bear facing the other party's icy face since childhood.

Yang Jian looked at the darkening clouds in the sky, his thoughts drifting away.

He knew that it wouldn't be long before Kingdom would gather the famous "Mask" team and then rush out of the circle without hesitation.

What he has to do is to try his best to persuade these people not to seek death before the tragedy happens.

"Brother." Yang Jian suddenly said, "If one day you discover that the truth of the world is cruel..."

"I have to see it with my own eyes!" Yang Yitan answered without hesitation, with a fearless flame dancing in his eyes.

"Then if the truth you are about to witness requires you to pay an unbearable price, would you still want to go?"

"Of course, no matter what the cost, I'm not afraid of it!"

Yang Jian smiled.

He reached out and patted his brother's shoulder without saying anything else. But in his heart, a plan had quietly taken shape -
