Moreover, it was not just the members of his own team; she, with her blonde hair and blue eyes, holding a bouquet, had her teammates quietly watching from another chair. Most importantly, Mo Fei was also seated below.
This scene was something Xiao Yefeng would never forget. It was during his eighteenth year, the first and last time he collaborated on a mission with her. In that mission, he played the role of the groom while she was the bride. It was the moment for their vows, but they were interrupted when the mission target appeared. Just as he was about to make his vow, everyone drew their weapons.
That was the most regrettable moment for Xiao Yefeng. He never expected this memory to resurface within the Ghost Wall. However, while he was lost in thought, she, holding the bouquet and draped in a pure wedding dress, gently asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Looking at her so close, Xiao Yefeng felt a pang in his heart. Yet reason told him this wasn’t really her because the woman in his memories hadn’t said those words. At that moment, he felt a bit grateful for the illusion created by the Ghost Wall. So, he smiled slightly and replied, "I'm fine!"
At that moment, a slight wrinkle appeared at the collar of Xiao Yefeng's pristine suit. She smiled softly and reached out to adjust it for him, saying, "You! Why are you always so cold and unkempt? It's not every day you wear such formal attire; you should take better care of yourself."
Seeing her gentle demeanor, Xiao Yefeng took her hand eagerly when suddenly the priest spoke!
"Mr. Xiao Yefeng, do you take this woman to be your wife? To love her and be faithful to her in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do you part?" The priest held a Bible and looked at him kindly.
Glancing around at everyone present and then back at her, Xiao Yefeng smiled and said, "I do!"
The kind priest then turned to her and asked, "Sister Consort Mi, do you take this man to be your husband? To love him and be faithful to him in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, until death do you part?"
At that moment, Consort Mi lifted her shy face. Seeing her smile made Xiao Yefeng's heart melt. This was real; his once cold and unfeeling heart had begun to thaw since joining the Mercenary group. However, back then, this vow had been cut short because at that moment their mission target had appeared and combat had erupted.
But this time it was different. Consort Mi raised her blushing face and looked into Xiao Yefeng's eyes as she said softly, "I do!"
Though Xiao Yefeng knew this was an illusion created by the Ghost Wall, he still felt his heart bloom with joy. The regret from years ago seemed to be fulfilled now. He held Consort Mi's hand tightly and didn’t want to let go for even a second. Consort Mi glanced at him shyly but allowed him to hold her hand.
After a lengthy yet unremarkable segment of vows from the priest, he declared, "Lord! May these rings represent the covenant of vows made by this couple; please bless them!"
At that moment, when Xiao Yefeng put his hand into his pocket, he discovered that the ring from that time had truly reappeared in his hand. He had thought he lost it during that mission when they evacuated so hastily without time to search for it; he had given up hope of ever finding it again. Yet here it was again.
"Mr. Xiao Yefeng is invited to place the ring representing a lifetime of commitment on Sister Consort Mi's finger!" The priest said after seeing Xiao Yefeng retrieve the ring.
Taking Consort Mi's hand, Xiao Yefeng placed the ring on her left hand's ring finger and said, "This ring is my promise to you for life; I now place it on your finger. At this moment, I declare you are mine!" At that moment, Xiao Yefeng felt deeply moved.
However, just as Consort Mi was about to place the prepared ring on Xiao Yefeng's finger under the priest's oath, Xiao Yefeng suddenly grabbed Consort Mi, preventing her from putting the ring on him. "Thank you," he said, "thank you for giving me a perfect wedding, but I want an even more perfect wedding in the real world. Right now, we need to resolve some issues between us!"
Xiao Yefeng's words left Consort Mi astonished. The priest's expression also changed, and everyone seated below stood up, their eyes filled with endless malice and Eerie Energy.
"What do you mean by that?" Consort Mi looked at Xiao Yefeng.
"I have to admit that I am quite satisfied with you. However, even so, I will not allow you to desecrate the one I hold dear!" Xiao Yefeng declared as he placed his palm against Consort Mi's chest. A shimmering Golden Cyan Pardon began to spread down from her collarbone.
His feet spun like a drilling bit as the Five Thunder God Talisman traced along the Pardon, gradually completing its design. The Five Thunder God Talisman flickered on Consort Mi's body.
At that moment, Consort Mi asked, "When did you discover this?"
"Actually, I never fell into this illusion created by you from the very beginning; I just really liked this memory!" Xiao Yefeng pointed his sword and silently chanted Heart Decision. The surrounding illusions vanished like bubbles, and those who lunged at him transformed into fierce Evil Spirits! Just because Xiao Yefeng couldn't attack his own people didn't mean he wouldn't take action against these foes.
With a machine gun loaded with Break Evil bullets in hand, he swept through them like rain. These Break Evil bullets were a specialty of the Metaphysics Society; each bullet was inscribed with a Breaking Talisman. The Evil Spirits struck by the bullets fell limply one after another, while the sound of bullets hitting the rocky cliff echoed in Xiao Yefeng's ears. At this point, he was already pressed against the edge of the cliff, which in his memory was a sheer drop of thirty meters.
This was an underground cave, characteristic of Ge Qing Gou. Countless Evil Spirits fell like dumplings from above. How could Xiao Yefeng let such a great opportunity for merit slip away? He drew out the Black Gold Spirit Banner from his belt and performed a Soul Banner move, sucking in countless Evil Spirits! These were all excellent means to eliminate his Yin Sin! Judging by their aura, these wild ghosts were all Evil Spirits—people who had been wicked in life or had harmed others after death—tools that could help him rid himself of sin.
However, while some rejoiced, others despaired. As Xiao Yefeng wielded the Black Gold Spirit Banner to collect these spirits, the old ghost disguised as Consort Mi was not pleased. She reached out to grab Xiao Yefeng; these were her hard-earned minions, and she couldn't allow them to be taken so easily!
But at that moment, after dodging her claw with a backflip while holding the Black Gold Spirit Banner, Xiao Yefeng said, "Do you dare move? Do you think my Five Thunder God Talisman is fake?" With that, he sheathed the Black Gold Spirit Banner back at his waist and made a hand gesture while softly calling out: "Thunder Strike!"
Dark clouds gathered overhead as a golden Condemnation Arc struck Consort Mi. In an instant, Eerie Energy surged as she tried to block this lightning strike; however, the five thunders broke through her Eerie Energy shield and landed on her Ghost Body.
The thunder strike accompanied by the Condemnation Arc knocked her down. Yet at that moment, Consort Mi's appearance remained unchanged. Xiao Yefeng felt a twinge of reluctance and said, "Return to your true form!"
"Bah! I won't change! Just go ahead and kill your wife!" At that moment, this female ghost threw a tantrum in public. Although her body was being struck by arcs that dissipated her Eerie Energy, she still maintained Consort Mi's appearance.
The female ghost attempted to use Consort Mi's form to make Xiao Yefeng hesitate to strike; however, she was mistaken. Two years ago, Xiao Yefeng would not have hesitated even against someone familiar to him or even someone he loved. Now he had changed significantly; knowing she was merely a wolf in sheep's clothing made him even less inclined to hold back!
"You're bold! Then come on! Thunder Strike—Four Thunder Chain!" With his fingertips forming seals mid-air, thunderclouds crackled as four golden arcs descended one after another upon the female ghost’s astonished gaze. The four thunder strikes hit her directly; since the Five Thunder Talisman summoned five strikes in succession and Sorcerers could control whether they fell together or separately, Xiao Yefeng showed no mercy towards this ungrateful ghost!
"Ah!" After a series of wailing screams, the female ghost was thoroughly struck by the lightning tribulation, her eerie energy dissipated completely. Now, only a ghostly form that could disperse at any moment curled up on the ground. At this moment, Xiao Yefeng pointed his sword and summoned a Yin Yang Diagram between his fingers, addressing the female ghost, "Who sent you here to cause trouble?"
The female ghost glanced at the lightning-charged Yin Yang Diagram with despair in her eyes and said, "It was—"
Before she could finish, the female ghost suddenly erupted with a surge of Yin Qi, her source energy. In a desperate bid to escape, she was willing to sacrifice her own Yin Qi. Xiao Yefeng couldn't help but admire her determination; however, it was all in vain. Standing amidst the eerie energy, he formed a hand seal and chanted an incantation. The Yin Yang Diagram shot forth like a beam of light, piercing through the eerie energy, followed by a chilling scream.
As the eerie energy dissipated, the fleeing female ghost was pinned in place by an invisible sword of black and white. Xiao Yefeng approached her and said, "Still think you can escape?"
With that, he summoned the Black Gold Spirit Banner, and the female ghost was directly absorbed into the Soul Banner. At this point, Xiao Yefeng released his Qi; his body had also been swept by an arc of energy. Although he had somewhat adapted to it, the aftereffects were still quite evident.
However, releasing his Qi did not mean that Xiao Yefeng let down his guard. He replaced his empty magazine with a spare from his belt. After loading it, he took two steps forward before suddenly turning around and aiming his gun at a tombstone in an abandoned grave. "Come out!" he commanded.
Silence enveloped him; aside from the chilling wind that blew past his ears, there were no signs of life. Even with his Yin-Yang Eye, this ordinary tombstone appeared merely as a rock. Yet, relying on his keen instincts, Xiao Yefeng sensed something was off about this rock!
With a click, he disengaged the safety and prepared to fire.
"Stubborn and unyielding! Then don’t blame me for using modern firearms!" With that declaration, Xiao Yefeng pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang! A series of ten bullets struck the rock; however, the sound that echoed back was dull and muffled. The noise suggested that either the bullets hit the ground or they struck something else entirely.
