Chapter 37

Walking through the city, Itachi realized that nothing had changed since the last time he was here, he realized that this was because it was a city far away from the others and also because the people in this world seemed a bit averse to change.

But soon his impression of the city seemed to change, because at one point in the city, a large party was taking place, there was a huge red carpet laid out from a huge field of one of the clans that controls the city, and the carpet stretched to a distance that the average person's eye could not see.

As he walked, many of the conversations of the people around him entered his ears, and he realized that a wedding would take place today, and for this reason all these people were out of their homes, but something else showed itself before Itachi.

These people were not here to celebrate the wedding, but to mock, even if discreetly, because the wedding that would be taking place today was precisely that of the trash of the Xiao clan, with the princess of the Xia clan.

Itachi who heard these things shook his head slightly. He could already imagine who was the Xia clan princess that these people were commenting on. After all, why would these ordinary people be saying things like calling the Xiao clan boy eating the flesh of a swan while being a frog.

"It seems that this girl's talent is really amazing." He thought.

It was then that Itachi remembered some words from his mother who had told him, that Xia Qingyue did not enter the sect earlier due to wanting to fulfill a promise her father had made in the past to an elder of the Xiao clan. And it seems that the promise is related to her marrying the young master of the Xiao clan.

"Since it is a promise then I will only be able to wait before taking her to the sect." He thought as he continued to sneak around.

Itachi didn't intend to interrupt the girl's promise, he felt that doing so might create enmity in the future, which was why he decided to just wait until the wedding was over to take her away.

"Anyway, I guess I can attend this wedding, it's been a while since I've seen one in person." He thought as he made his way to the Xia family mansion that seemed to be very excited.

He didn't have to walk for very long to get to the Xia clan mansion, and when he got there, he just had to sneak up on said Xia clan leader. He did this to let him know that he was here to pick up Xia Qingyue, and also to say that once she went to the sect it would take a long time for her to return.

Xia Hongyi who was in his office talking with some protectors of the Xia clan was deeply startled when he felt someone sneaking into the corner of the meeting room. He realized that if this intruder wanted his head then he wouldn't even know how he died or who killed him.

This made him take a few steps back, at the same time the Xia clan's protectors jumped in front of him to defend him but it was all useless, it was as if the bodies of all the people in the meeting room had been frozen, this was because they all felt an enormous pressure coming from the person who at this moment was sitting on one of the chairs in the corner of the meeting room. And what scared these people was that this person was not making any effort to leak his aura, just his presence was already enough to put pressure on all of them.

"It's okay, I didn't come here to attack, I just wanted to talk to you alone, Xia Hongyi." Itachi said those words calmly as he waved his hands.

The Xia clan protectors suddenly disappeared as if they had never been in the meeting room before. This was due to the Flying God of Thunder that Itachi had used to mark all these protectors and send them to a distance not so far away from the Xia clan. He did this just to avoid any hassles.

Xia Hongyi who saw the Xia clan's protectors disappear turned extremely pale, he thought that Itachi had killed his protectors with just a simple arm swing.

"Please, today is an important day for my daughter, if you want money, women, anything you want, I can give you, just don't attack my daughter and son." Xia Hongyi pleaded.

Itachi looked at this scene a little dismayed, he doesn't remember saying that he would attack the Xia clan, in fact, he was just here to say that he was the envoy from Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace and that he would take Xia Qingyue after the wedding, but it seems that a misunderstanding had been created before he could say any words.

"Actually..."

It took a while before Itachi could explain what was going on and where he came from.

"So you are a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace? I thought only women could enter this sect." Xia Hongyi said.

After Itachi's explanation he seemed much calmer, at first he didn't believe that Itachi belonged to a women-only sect, but after seeing a letter sent by his daughter's own mistress, he completely believed it.

"It is as I said, I will wait for the wedding to be over and then I will take her back." Itachi said getting up to leave.

Before Itachi could leave, Xia Hongyi stood up from her chair as she said, "Wait Sir! Why don't you stay and watch the wedding? It will be an honor to have an expert like you attend this ceremony."

Itachi already intended to attend the wedding, so he did not refuse Xia Hongyi's invitation.

"All right, I guess it won't hurt." Itachi said with a nod of his head.

Xia Hongyi looked relieved to see that Itachi accepted his invitation, so with a smile on his face he guided Itachi to where the wedding ceremony would take place.

Seeing that Xia Hongyi was treating him so well, Itachi felt no reason to push him away and went with him to the ceremony, from the looks of it there were still a few hours until the ceremony would take place, so he could find a good place to watch without being disturbed. Besides, from Xia Hongyi's words there would be plenty of delicious sweets to be enjoyed at the ceremony, and Itachi as he liked sweets could not refuse such an offer.
