The Piaomiao Palace was full of celebrations, the forest paths were hung with red lanterns, and all the buildings were pasted with happy characters.

Zhou Wu kept a low profile and forbearance, carefully prepared for many years, once he made a move, it would be thunderous.

Even his talented father, Zhou Changhai, the lord of Piao Miao Palace, was completely calculated by him, let alone others.

Therefore, at this moment, the entire Piaomiao Palace can be said to be Zhou Wu's people!

If...he didn't provoke the Xie sisters, perhaps, things would develop in another direction. After a few hundred years, maybe the Piaomiao Palace could really reach a higher level in his hands.

But unfortunately, no matter how smart people are, there will be weaknesses.

Zhou Wu is not the kind of dude who can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman, but facing a stunning woman like the Xie sisters, he still made the decision that he will regret for the rest of his life.

There were so many guests in Piao Miao Palace, because of haste, many important people who were far away did not come, but they all sent representatives to come to congratulate.

Facing a behemoth like Piao Miao Palace, very few people would not give face.

So today's Piaomiao Palace can be regarded as a joyous experience.

Even if some of the guests have grievances, but here, they are temporarily put aside, as if those grievances do not exist.

What makes everyone curious is that until now, they still don't know who the bride is.

This makes people feel a little confused.

Ordinarily, with the status of Piao Miao Palace Master, the wife he married must not be that kind of ordinary girl.

Even if that girl is overwhelmed and enchanting to the extreme, if she is of ordinary status, she will never be the wife of Princess Piaomiao Palace!

"Who is the bride?"

"That is, we have already arrived here, but we don't know who the bride is? Doesn't this seem a bit wrong?"

"For a grand wedding, the palace lord must at least inform about the background of the bride. This is the most basic etiquette."

"Why didn't you see your mother's family?"

"That's right...I said it's a bit weird, until now, it seems that none of my natal family have seen it!"

"It's really weird, suddenly succeeding to the palace lord, suddenly getting married, the old palace lord is missing, and the bride is unknown..."

Various voices of discussion came from the crowd. Not all of them have such good cultivation and temper, and some people have already started to discuss in a strange way.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the people from Piaomiao Palace rushed to find Zhou Wu's confidants.

"Elder Lu, hurry up and find a way to explain, otherwise... I'm afraid some guests will find fault on purpose!" said the Piao Miao Palace disciple who was in charge of the reception with a hesitant expression.

"Don't panic, I'll take care of it!" Elder Lu who spoke looked to be in his 40s, with a refined appearance and personable manner, with extremely deep eyes and a rich and pleasant voice.

With that said, Elder Lu walked to the hall, and Langsheng said: "Guests! Thank you all for coming to my Misty Palace... the succession ceremony and wedding celebration of the new Palace Master!"

"I'm going down to Lu Mingfeng, the elder of Piao Miao's foreign affairs!"

As Lu Mingfeng said, he cupped his fists and cupped his hands towards everyone in the hall, with a kind smile on his face.

"Elder Lu, can you explain to us why the new Palace Master suddenly succeeded?"

"Yes, Elder Lu, I met Palace Master Zhou Changhai two months ago. He was still very strong at that time. Why did he suddenly abdicate?"

At this moment, an old man in his fifties stood up, with the majesty and majesty of a high-ranking person, his eyes were soft but sharp, and he looked at Lu Mingfeng: "I saw Palace Master Zhou a month ago. He is full of vigor and blood, and he also talked to me about the future development direction of Piaomiao Palace, he is a man of great talent, why did he suddenly abdicate?"

"Moreover... there is one more thing that makes me puzzled. There seems to be a lot of familiar faces missing in Misty Palace? Why didn't any of the elders see anyone? Could it be that old friends are here, and it's not worth them to come out to greet them ?"

The last person to speak was a big man, the suzerain of a sect in Xihezhou, who happened to be nearby, so he came here in person.

On the one hand, he has always had friendship with Piao Miao Gong, on the other hand, he is also curious why Zhou Changhai suddenly abdicated to make way for the virtuous, and although Piao Miao Palace is full of festive atmosphere at the moment, there are many strange things about it.

For example, those acquaintances suddenly disappeared!

The most important thing is that those senior officials of Piaomiao Palace that he is familiar with are all the confidantes of the old palace lord Zhou Changhai!

This can't help but raise a lot of doubts in people's minds.

Just taking advantage of this opportunity, the big man asked directly, and the whole hall suddenly fell silent.

Everyone looked at Lu Mingfeng who stood up, and many people had playful looks in their eyes.

There are almost no ordinary people who are qualified to participate in the celebration of the Misty Palace.

Which one is not human?

No one came forward to ask before, everyone just pretended they didn't know anything, after all... this is Piao Miao Gong's own business.

But now someone asks about it, and all these people have a strong curiosity.

"That's right, even if the old palace lord abdicates, he won't even show his face?"

"Well, even if the old palace lord doesn't show up, why don't any of the high-level elders I know come out? This is very abnormal!"

"Hehe, when I came to Piaomiao Palace in the past, although I met this Elder Lu before me, at that time, he seemed to be an insignificant deacon, right?"

"Yeah, it's really the emperor and the courtier..."

There was a low voice of discussion from the crowd. Although the voice was not loud, there were almost no weak people here, and no matter how low the voice was, it could be heard clearly.

Lu Mingfeng suddenly felt a tightness in his throat. If someone asked this kind of question, he could just laugh and deal with it at will.

But the person who asked this question was the leader of a sect, and it was not that kind of little-known sect.

As the elder of Misty Palace, he must respond positively, this is the minimum etiquette.

At this moment, he suddenly regretted why he had to stand up.

Seeing the gazes falling on him one after another, Lu Mingfeng swallowed lightly, his Adam's apple rolled, and then according to the pre-discussed words, he said loudly: "It turns out that Sect Master Yuan arrived, Mingfeng didn't see you just now, why don't you Please forgive me!"

"Some time ago, the old palace master suddenly fell ill. To be precise... it should be a small problem in his cultivation!"

"However...the problem is not big, but it needs time to recuperate."

"So, the old palace lord can only temporarily pass on the position of palace lord to Zhou Wu. Zhou Wu, as the old palace lord's son, has worked hard and made a lot of contributions in Piaomiao Palace over the years."

"His succession has also been unanimously approved by Piaomiao Palace, but..."

Lu Mingfeng finally had the feeling that he had found a spokesperson, and his tone became much smoother. A faint smile appeared on his face: "Every change of dynasty... means that there will be some changes. Although Piao Miao Palace is a top school , but this kind of thing... is unavoidable, well, I can only talk about this, everyone understands."

The entire hall was silent!

Many people looked at Lu Mingfeng in surprise, and were a little shocked.

It's not that he thinks that Lu Mingfeng is lying, but that this guy... is so damn dare to tell the truth!

His words were almost equivalent to telling these people clearly that the new palace lord came to the throne and encountered some resistance, and then, those resistances have now been cleared away!

So you guys come here without seeing those familiar faces!

They were cleared!

It's that simple!

This is simply...too overbearing!

Moreover, about the old Palace Master who had a problem with his cultivation and was ill, it made people even more doubtful, Palace Master Zhou Changhai... Did something happen to him!

But thinking about it...it always feels impossible.

After all, Zhou Wu is Zhou Changhai's biological son!

In this world, it is not that there are no rebellious sons who kill their fathers, but if this kind of problem occurs in a large sect like Misty Palace, it is too abnormal.

Sect Leader Yuan's eyes flickered over there. Obviously, he was a little shocked by Lu Mingfeng's bold answer.

I wanted to ask something, but hesitated for a while, and still didn't open my mouth.

Because no matter what, this is the internal affairs of Misty Palace!

Asking a question is caring, asking too much...it becomes interference in other people's internal affairs!

If this gets out, the reputation will not be very good.

Therefore, facing Lu Mingfeng's direct and domineering answer, Head Yuan could only nod his head, and sighed with a gloomy expression.

By now, almost everyone present understood what happened to Misty Palace.

Only a few people looked around blankly, but no one would explain to them.

A big stone fell to Lu Mingfeng's heart. Although he was not afraid, he had expected this kind of thing to happen a long time ago, but when it really happened, he still felt very nervous.

After all, those high-level executives of Piaomiao Palace who have been cleared out have been in business for many years, and each of them has a very complicated relationship network.

This network of relationships may radiate the entire West Hezhou!

Among the people who came today, there are many big figures who have irreversible relationships with those high-level officials in the Piaomiao Palace. If these big figures unify the attack, let alone him, even Zhou Wu... I'm afraid they will break out in a cold sweat!

Although they don't interfere in the internal affairs of other families, if someone finds out the real means of Zhou Wu's ascendancy, I am afraid that two-thirds of these people present will turn around and leave on the spot, and there will be no more contact with Piao Miao Palace from then on!

This... will be a huge blow to Misty Palace!

Whether in terms of reputation or interests, they are not what they can afford.

"Fortunately... no one singled out any accusations." Lu Mingfeng secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and then said with a smile: "As for the bride... I believe that when she comes out, it will definitely surprise all the guests!"

Many people present could not help but frown.

They all secretly thought in their hearts: What does this mean?Surprised to see the bride?What's the surprise?Could it be that the background of the bride is terrifying...would it scare us?

There were also a small number of people whose eyes sparkled, because they suddenly thought: Palace Mistress Piao Miao has abdicated, and his young lady...that noble lady from Tianhuang, why did she also disappear?

Lu Mingfeng's explanation was barely passable, but for some reason, the moment he walked out of the hall, he felt the lively and festive atmosphere around him, and in a trance... an ominous omen appeared deep in his heart.

It was as if a cloud had been cast over the festive Misty Palace.

Lu Mingfeng raised his head subconsciously, and glanced at the sky above his head.

The moon is bright and the stars are few, which is a fine day.
