Chapter 1499 The Turmoil At The Wedding

"What's wrong with this guy?" Looking at Rocky's back, Tessa had a bad feeling.

The wedding ceremony came in the blink of an eye.

As the representatives of many clans and sects had come in advance yesterday, the Sword God
Square was lively and festive early in the morning. Moreover, many big shots of the Ethereal Region
were arriving one by one to congratulate the Sword Spirit Sect.

Timothy, who was about to become a father-in-law, walked around the Sword God Square with the
elders of the Sword Spirit Sect and greeted all the guests in person.

When the auspicious time approached, Hannah, wearing a phoenix coronet and an embroidered cloak,
appeared in full view of the public, accompanied by several maids in red. The audience was taken back
in awe at the amazing sight.

The next second, they burst into an uproar. Many of the men present were jealous. In their eyes,
marrying one of the most beautiful women in the Ethereal Region could only be a blessing from a
previous life.

But although the bride had come out, the groom was still nowhere to be seen. As time ticked by, the
atmosphere in the venue grew uneasy.

Hannah, who was a little anxious, walked up to her father and asked in a low voice, "Father, where is
Basil now?"

"I've sent someone to call him. He will be here in any minute. Don't worry. As long as you get married
today without any trouble from the Grand Sky Sect, everything will be fine," Timothy replied
reassuringly.

"Have the members of the Grand Sky Sect come?" Hannah asked with a frown.



"Not yet. But we can't let down our guard till the wedding is over. I have a feeling that Benedict will
come." Judging by what Timothy knew about Benedict, the latter would never miss an opportunity to
embarrass the Sword Spirit Sect, especially at a big occasion like this wedding ceremony.

Hannah nodded and took a deep breath to brace herself.

Just as the conversation between the father and the daughter ended, the crowd suddenly became
noisy, and many of their faces showed fear.

Timothy and Hannah turned to look at the source of the commotion at the same time. As expected,
Benedict had just entered the square and was walking towards them, followed by a group of powerful
masters at the King Realm. However, what was truly frightening was not Benedict, but the old man
walking next to him. He was none other than Clyde Hai, a senior elder of the Sovereign Pavilion.

He had a high reputation in the Sovereign Pavilion and was highly valued by their leader. Therefore, he
was one of the big shots in the Ethereal Region. Even the ones who held power in big clans and sects
respected him.

Timothy had never expected that Benedict would bring such a big shot here. This was definitely a bad
thing for them. Clyde Hai was an influential figure in the Sovereign Pavilion, and he was stronger than a
master at the King Realm who cultivated the Imperial Soul. The Sword Spirit Sect couldn't afford to
offend him.

Therefore, Timothy took his daughter as well as the elders of the Sword Spirit Sect to welcome them.

"Master Benedict, Elder Clyde, welcome! Thank you for coming to my daughter's wedding," he said
politely.

"There's no need for such courtesies, Master Timothy. We did come here to congratulate you, but we
also want to see a warrior from your sect." Benedict came straight to the point.



"Who do you want to see? What do you mean?" Timothy asked coldly.

"Isn't there a man named Basil in your Sword Spirit Sect?" Benedict asked immediately. Although he
knew that the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion was none other than Basil, he didn't know
whether the Sword Spirit Sect had planned it from the beginning. Therefore, he didn't start out by
directly accusing the Sword Spirit Sect. Anyway, as long as he could prove that Basil was indeed the
representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion, the public would definitely blame the Sword Spirit Sect.

"Yes, there is a Basil." Timothy kept his voice steady, but his heart sank. Since Benedict had come here
just to ask about Basil, it was obvious that he knew something. Perhaps he had even found out that
Basil was the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion. Of course, there was a very low
possibility of that, since Timothy had already discussed with the Heaven Shadow Pavilion and come to
an arrangement. Other than himself, Rocky, Hannah, and a few elders, no one else knew about it.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for the truth to have gotten out.

"Good, please ask him to come here," Benedict said.

"I don't understand what you mean. Today is my daughter's wedding day." Timothy frowned slightly.

"I think you'd better stop pretending to be innocent. If you hand Basil over, the wedding may go on
today. If not, I'm afraid we'll have to sever all ties with you," Benedict said gloomily.

At that moment, even the guests watching this exchange were confused. They all wondered what
Benedict was up to.

Upon hearing Benedict's words, Timothy immediately understood that Benedict had indeed learned that
Basil was the one who had secretly represented the Heaven Shadow Pavilion. However, Benedict
hadn't directly accused the Sword Spirit Sect, which meant that he didn't know the whole picture yet.



Hannah, who was standing next to her father, froze, and her face turned cold. However, she refrained
from saying anything, because she knew that this matter was not something she could solve.

The elders of the Sword Spirit Sect also looked grave. They knew that if the truth was exposed, the
reputation of the sect would suffer.

"Master Benedict, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't beat around the bush," Timothy said
coldly after a moment's silence. He had made up his mind that he would never hand Rocky over, no
matter what happened.

"Since you insist on lying and hiding the truth, I don't think there's any reason for me to continue being
polite." Seeing that Timothy still wanted to protect Rocky, Benedict sneered and looked around at
everyone present. "Everyone here is an esteemed citizen of the Ethereal Region, so please bear
witness today. In case of any conflict between our sect and the Sword Spirit Sect in the future, no one
should mistakenly think that we are the ones who initiated it."

"Master Benedict, what's going on?" a chief of one of the big clans asked immediately.

"I just received a piece of evidence that proves that the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion
is actually a member of the Sword Spirit Sect. His name is Basil, and he is the leader of the Security
Hall. That is to say, this man pretended to be the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion and
participated in the contest for marriage. Of course, the reason is obvious!" Benedict directly revealed
the whole thing.

In an instant, the crowd burst into an uproar. No one had expected that the representative of the
Heaven Shadow Pavilion would turn out to be a member of the Sword Spirit Sect. Regardless of
whether the Sword Spirit Sect had been aware of this fact or not, it was obviously cheating!



"Master Benedict, you are slinging mud at us! Do you have any evidence to prove that Basil pretended
to be the representative of the Heaven Shadow Pavilion? Show us," Timothy replied coldly.

"Master Timothy, if we didn't have conclusive evidence, we wouldn't have come here with such a big
group today. It's time for you to stop pretending. It's clear that you and your daughter already know
about this, but you're deliberately trying to hide it." Benedict's tone and words had become a lot
harsher.

"Don't just spout nonsense. If you have any evidence, show it now. Otherwise, please leave right
away!" Timothy insisted.

By now, the guests had already begun speculating among themselves and come to various
conclusions.

"I'm just afraid that if we show the evidence, the Sword Spirit Sect will not be able to recover from the
blow. Therefore, for the sake of our long-term friendship, I'm ready to let this matter go... as long as you
agree to my two conditions," Benedict proposed, seizing the chance.
