At Wanshan Hotel in Yuzhou.

An engagement party, which had attracted the attention of more than half of Yuzhou, was being held!

The main characters of the engagement banquet were Tan Yun, a well-known lady from a respectable family in Yuzhou, and Fu Chengpeng, a rich and powerful young master.

At the banquet, all the guests were rich businessmen and celebrities.

In the banquet hall, these well-dressed men and women were talking and laughing as they changed cups.

However, the content of their heated discussion had little to do with this engagement party.

"Have you heard? The lord, who was conferred the title of Dragon God a few days ago, seems to be in his twenties!"

"It's absolutely impossible for him to make such glorious achievements and become the first Dragon God in the history of the Empire. How come he's less than 30 years old? At least 40 or 50 years old!"

"I think so. You should know that the Dragon God not only defeated the 12 West Immortal Generals by himself, but also guarded the gate of the Long State. He also led 30,000 elite soldiers to defeat the 200,000 West allied forces! How could such a thing be done by a young man in his twenties?"

"Yes... that's true. However, no matter how rare the Dragon God is, it is like a miracle that he is able to achieve such a feat!"

...

The guests kept talking, and some people even argued with each other. For a time, the atmosphere was extremely enthusiastic.

However, there was one person in the hall who seemed out of place.

In a corner of the hall.

Mo Wuji calmly held a goblet in his hand. The wine in the cup was as red as blood.

After taking a sip, Mo Wuji raised his head and looked ahead. There was no sorrow or joy in his eyes.

"Lord Dragon God, what do you think they will do if they know who you are?"

Beside Mo Wuji, a tall, iron tower-like man bent down slightly and said with a smile.

The man sitting in front of him was the one the guests were talking about!

The Dragon God of the Empire—Mo Wuji!

Mo Wuji put down his glass and said blandly, "It's been almost half an hour. Are you sure you got the right information?"

Hearing this, the burly man, Zhang Hu, immediately became serious and quickly replied,

"Lord Dragon God, this subordinate has investigated and found out that Tan Yun is already in the Myriad Mountain Hotel. She should be appearing soon!"

When he answered, Zhang Hu's face was extremely serious, completely different from the cheeky smile he had just shown.

This time, the first thing Mo Wuji, the Dragon God, did when he returned to Yu City was to find someone!

This person was the heroine of this engagement party, Tan Yun.

"Then let's wait a little longer."

Mo Wuji said indifferently and looked into the distance, as if he was recalling something.

Eight years ago, the number one family in Yu City, the Mo family, was turned upside down.

The Mo family went bankrupt overnight!

The clansmen died bizarrely one after another!

Only Mo Wuji survived.

Mo Wuji's father, Mo Guotai, also died in the accident.

Before he died, Mo Guotai told him two things about Mo Wuji.

First, it was to fulfill Tan Yun's engagement and continue the Mo family. If the Tan family refused, it would be fine. However, before the engagement was canceled, Mo Wuji was not allowed to marry anyone else.

Until now, Mo Wuji still remembered what Mo Guotai had said.

"Remember, Wuji! It's their business that the Tan family doesn't admit it, but even if you're the only one left in our Mo family, we can't go back on our word!"

The second thing was to avenge the Mo family!

The destruction of the Mo family meant that the major aristocratic families in Yu City had something to do with it!

In order to fulfill his father's last wish, two years later, Mo Wuji resolutely joined the army.

For six years, the glory of the Dragon God of the Empire had been hovering between life and death for countless times!

At this moment, there was a stir in the hall, which pulled back Mo Wuji's thoughts.

"Lord Dragon God, they're coming!"

Zhang Hu whispered.

They saw a woman in a white dress, with a curvy figure, and a slightly fat man in a suit and tie walking up together.

It was the male and female lead of this engagement party—Tan Yun and Fu Chengpeng!

"Welcome to the two leading players today!" On the stage, the host shouted with all his strength.

Tan Yun and Fu Chengpeng walked onto the stage and applauded.

Then, Tan Yun's father, Tan Qingming, walked up with a smile.

The Fu family was a big family in Yu City. If her daughter married him, she would definitely be happy.

The Tan family could also make use of this opportunity to rise through the ranks!

The engagement banquet continued, and the host enthusiastically told a big story on the stage. Finally, he said,

"Let's give the couple the most enthusiastic applause, and wish Tan Yun and Fu Chengpeng the best..."

Before the host finished speaking, the guests were ready to applaud.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the host's next words.

"Wait!"

The voice was not loud, but it was extremely clear in everyone's ears.

In an instant, the whole hall quieted down, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound.

The Tans and the Fus were even more displeased.

"Boy, how dare you make trouble at the Young Master's engagement party. Are you looking for death?"

Fu Chengpeng's bodyguard, Li Biao, stepped forward and pointed fiercely at Mo Wuji.

Li Biao had been learning martial arts since he was a child. His muscles were so strong that his suit was bulging. He was very tough as he walked.

However, Mo Wuji got up, ignored Li Biao, and walked past him.

"You!"

Li Biao was so angry that his face turned red. Usually, every time he saw him, he would call him "Brother Biao". But this poor boy dared to ignore him?

He stretched out his big hand and grabbed Mo Wuji's shoulder.

"Get lost!"

A thunderous roar suddenly sounded. Then, Li Biao saw an iron tower-like man appear in front of him.

It was Zhang Hu.

As he met Zhang Hu's gaze, Li Biao felt a chill run down his spine!

Li Biao's hand froze in the air and kept shaking. Although he wanted to take it back, at this moment, he was firmly locked by Zhang Hu's eyes and could not move!

Mo Wuji continued to walk forward. His expression was calm and his steps were steady.

However, there was still a kind of heroic spirit between his eyebrows, which was breathtaking!

Only then did the guests in the hall notice this young man with extraordinary bearing.

"This little handsome guy looks quite good..."

Some Misses of aristocratic families stared at Mo Wuji without hiding anything, and their eyes were full of love.

After all, compared with those disciples of aristocratic families, Mo Wuji's temperament was too outstanding.

On the stage, Tan Yun's expression gradually changed from doubt to shock as Mo Wuji walked in. In the end, she revealed a look of disbelief.

"Who are you?"

Fu Chengpeng suppressed his anger and asked with a gloomy face.

Mo Wuji stopped, looked around, and said calmly,

"I am Mo Wuji, Tan Yun's fiance!"

As soon as he said that, the crowd burst into an uproar.

"She's your fiance? Did I hear it wrong?"

"Is he sick or is he here on purpose? Isn't Tan Yun's fiance the young master of the Fu family?"

"From his appearance, he doesn't look like a rich man. Who gave him the courage to make trouble here?"

...

Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Fu Chengpeng's face became more and more ugly.

Today was his engagement party, and he had invited many influential people in Yu City. He had completely lost face because of such a scene!

At this time, the hotel, as well as the security guards arranged by the Tan family, had rushed over when they heard the news and surrounded Mo Wuji and Zhang Hu.

"You must give me an explanation for this later!"

Fu Chengpeng turned his head and spoke to Tan Yun in a deep voice.

Without waiting for Tan Yun to speak, Fu Chengpeng waved his hand and was about to let his subordinates catch Mo Wuji.

All of a sudden, there was an exclamation in the hall.

"Mo Wuji! Isn't he the young master of the Mo family, the top family in Yu Prefecture eight years ago?"

In the hall, when the others heard this, they also thought of this past.

"Tsk, tsk. So he used to be the eldest son of a wealthy family. It's a pity that the Mo family did something against reason and was punished by the heavens!"

"I also heard that he was a good-for-nothing young master. After the destruction of the Mo family, he completely became a good-for-nothing. How dare he come back?"

"If I were him, I would have died with those from the Mo family!"

...

Listening to these malicious discussions, Mo Wuji's face gradually sank, and a faint chill came out of his body, sweeping through the whole hall.

The discussion suddenly stopped.

However, the chill in Mo Wuji's heart grew even stronger!

Back then, the Mo family had been framed by other aristocratic families in Yu City, causing the entire Mo family to be removed overnight.

He didn't expect that those people would spread rumors and hurt him and the Mo family!

His heart was extremely vicious!

"I will definitely pay you double for this!" Mo Wuji thought to himself.

However, before that, Mo Wuji had to get rid of his father's first wish.

Mo Wuji raised his head and looked at Tan Yun, who was in a beautiful white dress on the stage.

At this moment, Tan Yun's face was pale and she bit her lips tightly.

Back then, it was her father who got her engagement with Mo Wuji by kneeling down in front of Mo Guotai with the help of the Mo family.

At that time, the Mo family was the top aristocratic family in Yu City, so the Tan family did not feel any shame.

Moreover, Tan Yun herself was extremely happy. She often called herself the fiancee of the Mo family's heir.

However, later on, the Mo Family went bankrupt, dying miserably together with their clansmen.

Not to mention the poor childe, Mo Wuji was not even a stray dog!

She, Tan Yun, was going to live a rich and powerful life. How could she marry such a poor man?

Only a wealthy family with hundreds of millions of assets like the Fu family was worthy of him!

Thinking of this, Tan Yun calmed down a lot.

Moreover, Mo Wuji was wearing ordinary clothes, not branded clothes. He must be very ordinary.

For so many years, Mo Wuji had not shown up. There must be a reason for his sudden appearance at today's engagement party!

To put it bluntly, it was not about money.

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Tan Yun asked with a look that she had already seen through Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji did not answer immediately. Instead, he took out a yellow marriage contract from his chest pocket.

"Today, I am here for the engagement. As long as you are willing to fulfill the engagement, in the future, in the Long State, you can get whatever you want. The wealth and glory are just a matter of a word from me."

As soon as he said that, the whole hall was silent.

However, in the next second, there was an earth-shattering burst of laughter in the crowd.

"Ha ha ha! This boy is really sick!"

"Is this a joke? Look at his poor look. What else can he say? Can you rent a decent suit first?"

"A good-for-nothing of the Mo family. Who does he think he is? Is he the Dragon God of the Empire?"

"Hahaha..." In the hall, there was a burst of even more enthusiastic laughter.

Fu Chengpeng's expression also relaxed a lot.

It turned out that he was just a fool!

At this time, Mo Wuji did not pay attention to the ridicule around him. Instead, he looked at Tan Yun calmly and said,

"What do you think?"
