Seeing this, Fade frowned deeper and muttered to himself, "How is this possible? Jasmine has advanced from being a layman to an early stage Black Level martial artist in less than a week. This kind of speed is impossible!"
While Fade was in doubt, the handsome Hamlet and the beautiful Jasmine walked to the center of the stage amidst the cheers and discussions of the crowd.
Immediately, the parents of both sides came forward.
Hamlet was Kaeran's beloved disciple. Naturally, his guardian was Kaeran, the principal of Szeto Academy.
Kaeran was about 60 years old. That day, he was wearing a red vintage suit, which made him look very festive. However, the strong cultivation aura emitted from his body, giving him an invisible force of oppression. It made the guests at the scene involuntarily feel an inexplicable sense of awe towards him.
Meanwhile, Jasmine's parents appeared. It was indeed Abbott Zhuo, Jasmine's father, whom Fade had met in the restaurant the last time.
Abbott, who was in his forties, was dressed in luxury branded clothing, and had intentionally dressed himself up. However, the clothing could not hide how ordinary he was. It became particularly obvious when he was standing among these rich and powerful people of Capital City.
Of course, Abbott did not care about these. Standing on the stage, he looked at Kaeran respectfully, even fawningly. He was about to kneel down as he greeted Kaeran, "My respects to you, Master Szeto."
Kaeran waved his hand, signalling his men to hold Abbott and he said, "Mr. Zhuo, today is Hamlet and Jasmine's wedding day. Today, we become relatives, so there's no need to bow."
"Thank you, Master Szeto. Thank you!" Abbott quickly thanked Kaeran.
When the guests saw this scene, they couldn't help but start talking about it.
"Jasmine is actually not bad. It's just that her father is too low- class! He's definitely just an ordinary citizen, yet he's able to cling onto Szeto Academy. He's really lucky!"
"You can't blame him for having a beautiful and good daughter. Alas, you can't envy him on this."
"Anyway, the Zhuo family will definitely climb up the social ladder rapidly."
In the midst of the discussions, Kaeran announced loudly, "Since all the distinguished guests have arrived, there's no need to waste any more time. Let's officially begin the wedding of Hamlet and Jasmine."
"Yes!" Someone immediately responded, then went off to prepare for the wedding ceremony.
As Szeto Academy itself was a traditional Chinese clan, this wedding also adopted traditional Chinese etiquette.
After all kinds of complicated formalities, Hamlet and Jasmine approached the front of Kaeran and Abbott, ready to perform the three kowtows ritual of the marriage ceremony.
When Fade saw this, his eyes narrowed and the momentum in his body began to whirl within him.
At the beginning of the wedding ceremony, Fade did not produce any movement as he wanted to see what the hell the other party was up to. However, now, the marriage ritual would be officially completed after the three kowtows. Fade couldn't wait any longer.
"Kowtow to heaven and earth..." The emcee shouted.
Hamlet knelt down and began to kowtow to the heavens. Jasmine, on the other hand, stood frozen to the spot. For a moment, she did not move at all.
Upon seeing this, Hamlet's eyes turned cold and his expression grew grim.
Kaeran scoffed and looked at Abbott.
A look of panic crossed Abbott's face. He hurriedly got up, came to Jasmine's side and whispered something into her ear.
After which, Abbott strode over and glared at Fade. Clenching his teeth, he said, "I have already warned you before not to get close to my daughter. Now, get out of here. Do you hear me?"
Fade glanced at Abbott and said coldly, "If you aren't Jasmine's father, you would be lying on the ground by now."
"What did you say? I..." Abbott said while clenching his fist. He was about to personally attack Fade.
Fade snorted coldly and with a jolt of his body, he knocked Abbott straight to the ground. He then walked towards Hamlet and said, "I'm Fade Chen.
I received an invitation to be a guest here."
After saying that, Fade took out the invitation and threw it at Hamlet.
Seeing the invitation, Hamlet frowned and asked, "Who invited you?"
Before Fade could answer, a middle-aged woman in her fifties, in vintage style dressing, strode out and said, "I invited him."
"Madam Lin, why did you..." Hamlet asked.
Joanne Lin immediately looked at Fade with hatred and said, "He was the one who crippled Ladarius and Marcello sometime ago."
Upon hearing this, all the people from Szeto Academy understood.
Joanne was Marcello's wife, while Ladarius was Marcello's beloved disciple. Both she and Marcello treated Ladarius like their own son.
